D2-L«ncaster Fanning, Saturday, January 13, 1996 ANDY ANDREWS Lancaster Fanning Staff HARRISBURG (Dauphin Co.) An Oxford March ewe lamb that placed 10th at the North Atlan tic International Livestock Exposi tion in Louisville, Ky. in Novem ber won champion of the sheep meat breeds competition at the Farm Show on Monday this week. Blizzard conditions didn’t stop the Farm Show, and the sheep show, despite a closing of the state roads, from continuing with the sheep judging events on Monday. The champion of the meat breeds was exhibited by Mike Koehler, Schnecksville. Koehler said this was the first time he has shown Oxfords at the Farm Show. The same ewe won reserve champion in the breed at the Keystone International Lives tock Exposition (KILE) in October last year held at the Farm Show Complex. Winning a championship against many other breeds has its own challenges. “Like always, it involves a lot of work in both management and genetics,” said Koehler. Factors such as preparing the ewe for competition work in a big way. “Mike’s a master fitter, one of the best in the country,” said Suzie Lcib, Mcchanicsburg, whose fami ly shows sheep at the Farm Show.
