*Other Breed ’ Takes
JOYCE BUPP
York Co. Correspondent
YORK (York Co.) Frankly,
it may have been a first at the
York Fair’s open class beef breed
ing show.
Frankly, the Jack Myers family
of Dallastown was pleased about
the decision.
And, frankly, given the circum
stances, “DVF Frankly He’s
Good” seems a most appropriate
name.
“DVF Frankly He’s Good,” a
homebred Red Angus from the
Myers family’s Dunkard Valley
Farms, was selected the supreme
bull of the York Fair as a highlight
of the open beef breeding classes.
The selection of the powerful but
stylish 17-month-old young bull
for supreme honors’is probably
the first-ever for a top win at the
York Fair show by a Red Angus
entry. Red Angus are so relatively
rare at area shows in the East that
they are generally categorized
with other breeds.
The York Fair marked the debut
of “Frankly” into the show arena.
In November, he will be exhibited
in national Red Angus competi
tion at the North American Lives
tock Show in Louisville, Ky.
“The Red Angus arc Dad’s,”
said John Myers, son of Jack and
Nancy Myers, who own and oper
ate Dunkard Valley beef and crops
farm. “His mother was ‘Frankly
Red,’ a cow dad bought out West
back in 1984 when he got some of
the first Red Angus.
“Dad thought Red Angus were
pretty cattle,” Myers said. “He fig
ured if he had to feed the cattle
twice a day, he was going to have
something that he enjoyed looking
at.”
For several years, the Myers
crossed the rust-colored purebreds
with Simmentals in their cow-calf
operation. Their work with the
Red Angus purebred bloodlines
now includes embryo transfer
work to more rapidly increase
their herd genetic base.
