Scott To Be Honored At ADADC Annual Meeting
Now beginning his second year
as spokesperson for ADADC,
Willard Scott represents a strateg
ic role, designed to create consum
er impact and consumer continuity
for the three major ADADC sales
promotion events: the Spring
Cheeseburger Days promotion, in
conjunction with the Beef Coun
cil; the Summer Veggies promo
tion; and the fall “Kick Off the

290-pound weatherman, wasn’t
chosen to represent ADADC just
because he’s a well-known “small
storm front” as the New York
Times affectionately approxi
mates, but because of his common
interests with the dairy industry.
His “hometown” values shine
through in “Willard’s Weather”
on the “Today” show in which he
announces such things as county
fairs, hospital fund raisers, local
community events, as well as
those very special acknowledge
ments of our senior citizens’ 100th
birthdays. And Willard’s high
esteem for “farm fresh products”
is also evident in his cookbook
“Willard Scott’s All-American
Cookbook,” written prior to work
ing with ADADC. In his cook
book, Scott states

This new system is destined to outmode all other types
A few years ago, we introduced a similar open trough propelled by the drive motors. It also slowly turns to
sliding-auger type feeder for cage layers. It now dominates constantly remix the feed. There’s no stale or moldy feed
that market. Old-fashioned chain and other feeders are left in the corners or in the trough like others,
continuing to lose ground. Just as with cage feeders, we the 100 ft./minute auger speed, birds can’t
believe breeder people are tired of high-maintenance, high- pick over the feed during filling like with a chain feeder,
energy-cost, outmoded methods. With our ULTRAFLO* With chain, this causes uneven nutrition. Not so with
for breeders, there are no corner wheel mechanisms to ULTRAFLO. Also, ULTRAFLO’s modem energy-saving
wear out and need grease. Our auger slides in the trough, design saves many dollars in electric power cost.

as I’m concerned, nothing tastes
quite as good as a potato freshly
dug out of the ground, or a crisp
ear of com just off the stalk.”
That goes for using real dairy
products as well, according to
Scott, “butter is what margarine
would like to be.” But he’s not
unfamiliar with the hard work it
takes to produce farm fresh pro
ducts, from milk to apples to green
beans. Along with his wife, Mary,
Willard owns a small 20-acre farm
in Virginia.
Just as Willard enjoys announc
ing and congratulating people on
their 100th birthdays on the
“Today” show, he will be
announcing a similar honor at
ADADC’s annual meeting.

ADADC has found historic dairy
farms from New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania, and
Scott will be presenting them per
sonally with a “Service to Dairy
ing Award,” providing his sche
dule allows. Each of these three
farms is over 200 years old and
has been handed down through the
same family. One of the historic
farms is 311 years old!
With or without, his toupee,
Willard Scott remains a favorite
performer and America’s only
stand-up weatherman. As Scott
says, “I’m the last great comball
in America!” And it’s that funny,
witty charm and enthusiasm that
makes you smile when you see his
gaping grin and hear his signature
opening, “Hi, folks, Willard Scott
here!”
