MADISON, Wis. - World Dairy
Expo, the world’s premier trade
show for dairy farmers, will be
held Oct. 1 through 5 at the Dane
County Exposition Center in
Madison, Wis. The show, the
largest of its kind and international
in scope, is entering its third
decade of service to the dairy farm
family. “Although a 20th an
niversary is a time to look back
and reflect on past successes, we
are instead working to make the
1986 edition of World Daipr Expo
the best ever and continuing with
quality programming and exhibits
to educate and inform America’s
dairy farmers,” says Brad Rugg,
World Dairy Expo’s Executive
Vice President.
Plans for the 20th Annual World
Dairy Expo feature nearly 400
commercial exhibitors displaying
the latest available dairy farm
technology, products and services.
Dairy experts are scheduled three
times daily Wednesday through
Saturday in the Education Tent.
Timely and informative speakers
will address day to day farm
management needs such as
feeding and health care for good
replacement heifers, preventative
techniques for calf scours and
mastitis, record-keeping systems
and tips for raising top quality
forage.
A motivational speaker will talk
about the dairy future; state and
national dairy promotion board
representatives will discuss “How
wisely is your advertising dollar
being spent?”, and a panel of in
dustry experts will offer their
predictions on where the dairy
industry is headed over the course
of the next decade. The line-up of
expert presentations will conclude
with the timely question, “What
did the whole herd buyout ac
complish?”
The dairy cow herself is the core
of World Dairy Expo. More than
1,600 head of show cattle from
North America will be competing.
Expo will host the Central National
shows for the Ayrshire, Brown
Swiss, Guernsey, Holstein and
Milking Shorthorn breeds and the
Midwest Regional Jersey Show.
Youth from across the United
States will travel to Expo to par
ticipate in National 4-H, In
tercollegiate and FFA dairy cattle
judging contests and junior
showmanship contests.
An informative ladies program,
the craft forum, is also a popular
segment of World Dairy Expo.
Craft and food demonstrations,
style shows and informative and
entertaining programming fill out
the daily schedule for this ever
growing show attraction. A wide
variety of handcrafted items will
be offered for sale by craft
exhibitors and unique dairy
related souvenir items are

LANDISVILLE - Farmers
interested in learning more about
corn and soybeans would do well to
attend Penn State’s Crops Day on
Thursday at the university’s
Southeast Field Research Lab
near Landisville.
About 16 Penn State Extension
and USDA research specialists will
be on hand to review the lab’s
latest research results during the
morning and afternoon tours.
Topics to be discussed will include;
NEW from
CHORE-TIME
20” deep SSS curtain back
cage layer system
Get The Only New Technology Available For Cage Systems
Chore-Time’s new 20” deep SSS 4-high system puts 33%
more birds into the same row lengths as old style 3-high
systems - without dropping boards and without a need
for greater building width. That means at 6 birds per
16”x20” cage (53.3 square inches) a 52’x536’ building
can house over 108,000 birds.
But, just as important, with this Chore-Time system
you also don’t have to sacrifice the features and
benefits you’ve come to expect from Chore-Time:
single file egg belt, our all galvanized, SOFT TOUCH ■
II egg collection, a gentle cage floor slope to prevent
checks and cracks...rugged A-frame cage support and
legs every 4 feet to protect against cage sag and trough
