Maryland Correspondent
TIMONIUM, Md. At the
1994 Maryland State Fair, six
breeds of dairy cattle were shown
in the 4-H/FFA division on Tues
day and Wednesday. Each show
was held in the Cow Palace on the
Maryland State Fairgrounds.
After the Tuesday show the
grand champion of the Holstein
show was brought into the ring to
join the grand champions of each
breed in the color breeds show.
They included the grand cham
pion; Ayrshire, Brown Swiss,
Guernsey, Jersey, and Milking
Shorthorn. From these six grand
champions a supreme champion
for the 4-H & FFA portion of the
Maryland State Fair was chosen
by Judge Curtis Day and Judge
Kenny Krebs.
The 1994 Maryland State Fair
4-H & FFA Supreme Champion is
Ms Md-Dun-Loafin Moonshine, a
three-year-old Holstein exhibited
by Shannon Harrison of Howard
County. Ms. Md.-Dun-Loafin
Moonshine is out of C Logic
Marijuana, a cow Shannon’s bro
ther Paul and his friend bought in
Canada. Sired by Bridon Astro Jet
ET, the senior three-year-old cow
Since 1972...

CHIMTEK
ADVANCED CHIMNEY TECHNOLOGY
SAFER: CHIMTEK is designed to withstand severe chimney
fires without breaking or transmitting high temperatures to
adjoining combustible materials.
LESS CREOSOTE: Wood smoke contains moisture (H,O).
When the smoke comes into contact with a surface under
approx. 250 degrees F the water will condense to a liquid.
This liquid combined with other products in wood smoke will
result in creosote. Creosote can be very dangerous when it
ignites. The inside of a CHIMTEK chimney stays much war
mer and greatly reduces the amount of creosote formation.
In many cases CHIMTEK chimneys are completely clean
after years of use.
IMPROVES STOVE PERFORMANCE: The draft produced
by a chimney is what pulls oxygen into the fire for combus
tion. The three main factors affecting draft are the chimney’s
height, size and temperature. CHIMTEK contains a great
amount of a very special insulating material that is not
affected by moisture saturation and will not Seattle or deter
iorate. Poor draft will result in poor combusion. Poor combu
sion will create more smoke. Smoke is wasted fuel. Newere
ERA certified stoves are especially dependent on proper
draft to perform properly.

is co-owned by Shannon and her
brother Paul. She has a history of
wins with the last one being su
preme champion at the Howard
County Fair. Shannon also won
the fitting and showing division of
the Holstein show and came in
second place in the Maryland Hol
stein Futurity.
“She’s always been easy to
work with,” Harrison said. “She’s
real smooth and real contented.
She’s been right at the top every
where.”
As the Champions in each
breed 'lined up in the ring, an
nouncer Lee Majesky said,
“Looking at these cows and those
udders is a real tribute to the
breeding programs and the sup
port they’ve gotten throughout the
State.”
His opinion was mirrored by
both judges. Kenny Krebs judged
the Ayrshires, Guernseys, and
Milking Shorthorns. He said, “The
quality here has been extremely
deep. I sure appreciated the effort
the kids put toward me in prepar
ing their animals and presenting
them to me. The quality was even
better than I had anticipated.”
