Spring Holstein Show Dis
(Continued from Page A 32)
Pennsylvania. The award is based
on a point system and in order to
qualify for the award, a certain
number of points need to be accu
mulated for the year.
“The spring show is the first in
line,” Raney said. “Those who do
well in regional shows in the sum
mer and then in the fall (Holstein)
show have a good chance at All-
Pennsylvania,” he said.
There are other benefits to the
show program, Raney said.
“It is real good advertisement
for our association, not only on the
state level, but there are a whole lot
of local shows that they (the asso
ciation) sponsor and that get peo
ple involved in activities and cre
ates interest in what we’re doing,”
he said.
In the past, some people have
questioned the value of such breed
shows. Raney said they are still
very necessary and still based on
dariyman needs.
“Production is still the number
one goal for the average guy on the
farm, and along with that is that a
cow has to be appealing to the eye
and still be around for a while. You
look for production, type and
longevity,” he said.
“Showing also gives an oppor
tunity to look at daughters of some
of the sires that are out there,”
Raney said. “And that’s something
you normally don’t get a chance to
see; what that sire is doing in
somebody else’s herd.
According to Raney, although
displaying the results of good
genetics is still the predominate
reason for a show, time has
changed some things.
“In the olden days, a lot of peo
ple came to shows with cows try
ing to sell their own bulls individu
ally and people were merchandis
ing for the bull end,” Raney said.
“Now a lot of merchandising is for
the top end of the show, the top end
of the classes, people are buying
some of those top animals.”
The Association’s fall show is
tentatively set for Sept. 7 at the
Penn State University Agriculture
Arena. More details are to become
available closer to the projected
show date. Anyone interesting in
joining the association or getting
more information should call
814-234-0364, or write to the asso
ciation at 839 Benner Pike, State
College, 16801.
