(Continued from Page A 32) At breeding age the heifers go to a free stall bam where they are bred with a well picked bull. They use the bull to save time, Ron says. The Woods have learned to work with their clay, thin soil on the home farm. “We rely on grass an awful lot,” Ron says. They plant alfalfa and grasses, and in particular canary grass, according to Ron. “We don’t plow up as much as other people would. We have had stands up to 10 year,” he adds.

He says he can’t believe the difference in their stands when they draw off the effluent and spread it around. Then the manure is put on their alfalfa until it covers the crowns of the alfalfa. It not only fertilizes the alfalfa, he says, but protects it on the windy hilltop from soil erosion. They put up a lot of haylage and a little corn silage, he adds. Looking to the future of the milk industry, Gordon predicts the United States will go to a quota system similar to Canada’s. He specifies that it will have to be administered regionally and bv Mh > T Acres lies near Mansfield in Tioga County and encompasses nearly 2,500 1 14’xl4' $4.99 U’xW $5.99 U’zU’ $6.99 20’z20' $8.49 WS CHORE GLOVE Warm & long wearing cotton flannel glove Snug fitting knit wrist No 429 3 For $3.29 MILK REPLACER f f&Jitint Medicated, design i \ edtomeetthe 'i nutritional require . ments of the herd ' J replacement [ W ▼ 1 animal 501 b 1 1 /1 hm*Aj S, |V >. k MILK } Cl REPLACED * r i $14.95 W • - I PRICES EFFECTIVE THRU OCT. 25th u m rdf in & Nome hours. ■■ ■■ ■__ Willow 17584 , #Br IV »*■■ ?i7 of 800 ■bf r II ■■■il_Jim Toll Free [Are, Codec 717 £ 215) W farmers and imports will have to be controlled, but he believes it is in the future. As an alternative to the buyout program now in effect he would like to suggest a program ad- ministered whereby each farmer would receive $lOO per heifer calf over the selling price for each one sold. That way, he explained, the poorer stock would be “taken off the bottom” instead of eliminating some of the best herds which is what Ron says has happened m Tioga County. However one of the best herds appear destined to stick around and leave their mark on Pennsylvania Holsteins.
