CHESTERTOWN, Md. - It was
a particularly cool brisk
November morning on Maryland’s
Eastern Shore for the first edition
of the Leading Edge Sale. Fair Hill
Farm offered 131 head of top
quality registered Holsteins which
averaged $2,536.
Three generations of the Fry
family have been breeding cows
and they firmly believe in their
breeding program. This was
evident as they offered their
favorite cows in pairs with the
successful bidder taking their
choice of the pair. Fair Hill Farm
kept the other cow to build for the
future.
The first pair included a VG-87
Arlinda Rotate daughter with
three generations of Very Good
dams behind her and a VG-86
Carlin-M Ivanhoe Bell daughter,
Lights-RBR Bell Ellen, which
topped the sale at $45,000. Her
record as a 2 year old in 36b days
was 26,210 pounds of milk and 1,015
pounds of fat. Ellen boasts a index
of plus 1,570 milk, plus 68 fat and
plus $205 with a CTPI of plus 793.

Pizza Hut Joins Real Seal Program
WILLIAMSPORT - Pizza Hut,
the nation’s largest pizza chain has
signed an agreement to participate
in the American Dairy
Association’s Real Seal program.
The agreement signifies the fact
that Pizza Hut uses real cheese on
its pizzas and other menu selec
tions.
The chain plans to feature the
Real Seal on both menus and pizza
take-out boxes in each of its 5,000
stores across the country. More
than 235 million pizzas topped with
real cheese were produced at Pizza
Hut locations last year.
“It takes more than 100,000 cows,
each producing 30 pounds of milk
per day to fill the milk needs of
Pizza Hut,” states Mike Jenkins,
Pizza Hut’s corporate public
relations manager. “Dairy
products account for 35 percent of
our food costs.”
For Pizza Hut, the Real Seal is a
quality statement to patrons. For

dustry, the Seal is a means of
promoting dairy products and
combatting the infiltration of
imitation products into the dairy
case.
According to a recent survey, 96
percent of the nation’s pizza stores
use real cheese on their .pizzas.
Cheese blends, a mixture of real
and imitation cheeses, are trying
to make their way into the market
place. By signing pizza stores into
the Real Seal program, the
American Dairy Association hopes
to keep the quality of real cheese in
pizza preparation.
Locally, the American Dairy
Association and Dairy Council
runs the most successful sign-up
program for pizza stores. Last
year ADADC staff signed up over
1,000 pizza stores to the Real Seal
program. The signing of Pizza Hut
should encourage other stores to
get into the program and become
“Real Pizza Makers.”
