They did not get sold until

than 2,000 goats were sold
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
flux of lambs at the auctions at
Easter and Passover time, but
there were certainly not many
meat goats years ago. Many of
the goats were bought for lawn
trimmers. Some might recall
(with mixed feelings) that the an
imals at the Lancaster Stock-
yards were bought for
youngsters. Years ago,
children became quite ex
cited about their “gift” of
an Easter goat.
A pen of sheep and lambs are being moved from a
holding pen to be readied for the sales ring Monday eve
ning at New Holland’s small livestock sales barn.
For the last 12 years, Smoker
noted, meat goat receipts have in
creased along with the numbers
of mideastem Islamic groups in
the eastern metropolitan areas.
Yearly goat marketings now out
number sheep.

works wonders on your genes' There are so many conflicting messages
Popular trends tell you to blame yout in the media today none more than nutn
health or lack of it solely on your genes tion' One day they'll say a certain food
But research has found that the vast maior- causes high cholesterol and then the next
week you’ll read an article saying it’s ben
eficial tor other conditions These days it
seems everything causes cancer' Who can

of ill health and disease is not inherited
Instead, it's directly related to environmen
tal factors, or how you live your life But
often times, how mom and pop lived their
life is how you continue to live yours -
hence the continuation of what appears
to be ‘gene tic'health issues
The good news is genetic tendencies
CAN be changed with proper diet and
nutrition. There are 50 genetic diseases
that can be remedied or improved with
proper dietary supplementation
For example, only five percent of breast
cancer incidences are related to genetic
factors, whereas the traditional lifestyle
factors account for the rest - estrogen expo
sure through hormone replacement theiapy
along with poor diet and inadequate physi
cal exercise In fact, inherited genetic fac
tors are a minor contributing factor to most
cancers in humans
So it you have a genetic condition - even
a significant one, take heart and know that
lifestyle remedies are still available for
your tutuie health and they are veiy suc
cessful
One easy change you tan begin making
in your life right now is to restrict your
calorie intake without lowering the amount
of nutrients you consume In other words,
reduce refined foods like floui and sugar,
as well as refined fats like most vegetable
oils
You’re probably wondenng how to actu

sheep receipts at New Holland
Sales Stables totaled 67,760 and
goats numbered 80,726.
Many fenced-in goat feedlots
can be seen throughout the re
gion and surrounding states.
Some believe this may be one
area of the livestock business that
will not yield to contract feeding
or direct marketing any time
soon.
