Obie Snider, well*
known Holstein breeder
from Imler, Bedford
County, has donated
Singing-Brook N-Boy
Mandy 4 to the Depart
ment of Dair>' and Ani
mal Science at Penn
State.
Mandy 4 is an animal
I of high genetic merit,
| with a pedigree contain-
S ing some of the out
-8 standing animals of the
■n breed. Her dam, Jack-
I built Chairman Mandy,
II is an elite cow and the
j mother of outstanding
sons at both of Pennsyl
|! vania’s artificial insemi
-1 nation units.
| Mandy 4 will remain
| at Singing-Brook Farm,
where she will be used
in an embiyo-transfer
I program. She will be
| toed to elite sires of the
! breed and flushed at reg
j ular intervals in an effort
| to provide high-quality
S replacements for Penn
9 State’s Holstein herd.
0 Penn State’s first
A dairy herd, established
n in 1889, became
9 infected with tuberculo
sis in 1916, and all but a
dozen head were
destroyed. To rebuild
the herd, 24 Holstein
heifers were purchased
from James Stewart of
Jamestown, and from
1919 until 1922, breed
ers across the Common
wealth donated 16 head
to assist in the effort.
Single animals and a
few small groups of one
breed or another were
purchased over the
years.
All breeds but Hols
teins were sold in 1991.
One significant addition
to the Holstein herd in
1965 was the donation
of 65 head by Penn State
benefactor Albert B.
Craig of Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania.
Penn State is grateful
to Snider for his gift of
this valuable animal,
according to a news
release. He has contri
buted to his alma mater
in many ways, most
notably as a trustee of
the University and
Chairman and chief
benefactor of Penn
State’s Ag Arena
campaign.
