Famed Holstein
Herd To Be Sold
Shoemaker Brothers
To Quit Business
One of the outstanding Holstein
herds of the country will be broken
up with the dispersal sale and farm
auction at the famous Shoemaker
Brothers Sunny Side Farm at West
Wyoming on October 20.
For nearly a century the Shoe-
maker family has operated Sunny
Side Farm. Ira R. Shoemaker, the
father, was in the cattle business
for fifty years and in the dairy
business at Sunny Side Farm.
His sons John R. H. Shoemaker, |
James D. H, Shoemaker and the
late George H. Shoemaker, who
died last February, carried on and
improved the work of their father.
For the past thirty-seven years
they have been breeding ‘Holsteins
for better type, size and production
with sire from famous herds such
as Dunloggin and Lauzmont Farms.
The herd has consistently been
among the leaders for production
in Luzerne County Cow Testing
Association.
All cattle and farm equipment
will be sold. Howard Sands is the
auctioneer and Ralph Sands will
read pedigrees.
Ostensibly to settle an estate one
of the main factors for the sale is
inability of the owners to obtain
skilled farm help.
