Lebanon Holstein Recognizes Youth
ence representing the county at the
state level has been especially
rewarding, because of the respect,
reputation and performance of
Lebanon County’s 184 members.
In other business, Clarence
Stauffer, with the state association,
reported to members that while
prices are to stay the same, there
has been some major changes at
the state and national level.
Last Wednesday, the national
area office was closed down.
Members who need information
should call Stauffer or call the
national headquarters at Bratdeb
oro, Vl
He said that, because of the poor
economy, 60 fewer people are now
working and registration turnar
ound is about the same. He said in
addition to office personnel, “a
couple of consultants went as
well.”
Stauffer also reminded mem
bers that with the advent of the new
program to “register" grade ani
mals, the organization is now appl
icable for many more dairy cattle
enthusiasts. He said that members
should just talk to people and
explain the marketing benefits of
the association, plus the fellow
ship, activities and educational
advantages available.
He also announced that he was
seeking about a hundred,
300-pound calves with strong sires
and dams for sale.
Also, he said that the Middle
town facility is to see increased use
as a holding area for cattle. Stauf
fer said that in the past, many buy
ers from the South used to come up
and go on farm visits to pick over
cattle at the farm.
He said now the buyers preferto
come to one place, look over sev
eral hundred and select from the
larger group. He said that the state
plan is to stockpile some cattle at
the farm so that buyers can arrive
and do business without undue
delays.
Bill Allan was hired September
to manage the Middletown farm
and to manage sales. He replaced
Jeff Harding who left to manage a
