The Surge Custom Line Turbine Vacuum Pumps from
Siemens are a high-tech design featuring maximum strength
materials. They are light weight, use no oil or water and
are virtually maintenance free for vibration and wear.
As an added benefit, the residual heat from the pump
exhaust can be reclaimed with the use of a heat exchanger
to provide hot water for a commercial dairy use.
Features and Benefits:
■ Low noise creates a better work environment.
■ Oil free air is environmentally safe. No oily exhaust air to
collect and dispose.
■ Direct drive requires no belts to replace or adjust.
■ Non-contact operating surfaces create no internal friction
to cause wear and fatigue of Internal pump parts.
■ Built to endure long running times of a commercial
dairy operation increasing machine life-span.
■ Low maintenance keeps the long term costs of operation
low, and eliminates downtime.
■ High efficiency means low cost of operation.
■ Free hot water eliminates the expense of operating
electric or gas water heaters as primary heaters.

perhaps to eat the grain but not the hay.
Human beings like variety in their dinners,
but cows need to eat the same diet every day
because their stomachs become easily upset
When fresh grain is used, the transfer is done
gradually to help prevent the cows stomachs
from reacting.
Moyer showed the children the large aspi
rins that cows are sometimes fed when not
filling well.
The large aspirin is much too large for
children to swallow. Cows don’t like to swal
low it either, so a special gadget is used to
stick it down the cows throat
A veterinarian, Slaci Hytrek, talked about
the care of small animals and the need to have
them properly vacinnated and fed the right
foods for healthy living.
In addition to the workshops discussed in
this article, the following were taught: Care
taker of Water by Buzz Frances of the Berks
County Conservation District; Caretaker of
Resources by David Varone, Berks County
Recycling coordinator; Caretaker of the Com
munity by Tammy Balthaser, Beef Council
Industry representative.
The ail-day event was sponsored by the
Tulpehocken High School agricultural
department. Christine Williams, ag advisor,
said that the children to leant how agriculture
applies to so many different areas of life. She
also wanted professionals to teach some of the
classes so that students could learn about
career opportunities and how everything
works together.
