149 Dairy Animals Shown
At Susquehanna District
LAURELTON (Union
Co.) 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

4-year-old cow.
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.
