Jerseys Sweep 4-H, Open Shows Tuesday At
ANDY ANDREWS
Editor
GRATZ (Dauphin Co.) Two
Jerseys captured the Gratz Fair
Dairy Show spotlight Tuesday
evening, winning supreme cham
pion in the 4-H and open shows.
Open show champion went to
an 8-year-old Jersey owned by
Harold and Shirley Harpster,
Boalsburg. Youth show champi
on went to a Jersey exhibited by
Greg McMurtrie.
The supreme 4-H Jersey cow is
a “tremendously framed cow,”
noted show judge Eric Stine,
Pennsylvania Furnace, who
maintains a herd of Holsteins.
Stine noted the cow had a “tre
mendous mammary.” The open
show Jersey has a “beautiful
frame, with good set of feet and
legs and good udder, a tremen
dous cow all the way through,”
he said.
In the Holstein show, the larg
est of the breeds at the fair, Stine
selected a 3-year-old shown by
Grant Campbell as champion.
