One hundred and forty nine dairy cattle representing six breeds were shown in the 10-coun ty Susquehanna District 4-H Dairy Show held earlier this month at the West End Fairgrounds in Laurel ton, Union County. The large number of 4-H youth dairy project animals from Centre, Clinton, Juniata, Lycoming, Mif flin, Montour, Northumberland, Perry, Snyder and Union Counties became eligible for this show by having received a blue ribbon for their entry in their local qualifying show. The district show is the qualifying event for statewide competition. Type judge was Paul Knight of Airville, who placed the cattle and selected a grand champion of each breed. Ayrshire grand champion was a 3-year-old cow exhibited by Steve Fisher of Muncy. Lindsay Martz of Dalmatia showed the grand champion Guernsey, a spring calf. The grand champion Milking Shorthorn was the entry of Amy Newman of Middleburg. From McElhatten, Lauren Daubert’s senior 2-year-old animal was named grand champion Brown Swiss. The grand champion Jersey was a 4-year-old cow owned by Dou glas Boop of Millmont Kathryn Janet of Montgomery showed the grand champion Holstein, a BRUBAKER AGRONOMIC CONSULTING SERVICE, INC.

Three of these champions, Jar ret’s Holstein, Daubert’s Brown Swiss, and Martz’s Guernsey were from dams owned and bred by the exhibitor. Exhibitors were judged for the showmanship ability by John Har ris of Harrisburg and the fitting skills by Brian Fleisher of New port. Eighty-five of the animals exhibited received blue ribbons based on type and qualified to go on to the Pennsylvania State Junior Dairy Show, held Monday at the Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg. Showing cattle not only increases the skills of the 4-H member in selecting and exhibit ing dairy animals, but it builds confidence and introduces them to 4-H’ers from other counties. These experiences are often long-remembered by the 4-H youth whether or not their future career is in farming or another aspect of agriculture or even in an unrelated field. Showing cattle is only the tip of the iceburg of what these youth do with their 4-H dairy projects. Throughout the year they work with their animals and keep records of feeding, veterinary and other costs and well as the produc tion returns of milking cows. They learn about the business of dairying and they participate in county-wide 4-H events. 4340 Oregon Pike Ephrata, PA 17522 CALL COLLECT 717/859-3276
