New Nov. Record
In Milk Output
Four Percent Above
Previous November
A sharp increase in the feeding
of concentrates to dairy cows enab-
led Pennsylvania farmers to pro-
duce a record 456 million pounds of
milk in November, according to
Federal - State surveys announced
today by the State. Department of
Agriculture.
The total was four per cent above
the previous November high of 438
million pounds of milk last year.
The number of cows in dairy herds
was estimated at 948,000, unchang-
ed from a month earlier but 7,000
above November 1953.
November's milk output could
contribute to a new annual milk
production record for Pennsylvania,
observers said. For the first eleven
months of this year production to-
taled five billion, 624 million pounds
or two per cent above the five
billion, 501 million pounds for the
same January-November period last
year. Production for the twelve
months of 1953 was five billion, 971
million pounds.
Dairy feed ration costs increased
somewhat last month. With milk
prices seasonally higher there was
some improvement in the relation
between the price received by farm-
ers for milk and the price they pay
for feed.
November favored milk produc-
tion but a drop is seen for Decem-
ber in production per cow, the
survey revealed.
Winter grains have a good start
and show promise of high yield in
1955, the Department said. Novem-
ber rainfall was somewhat below
normal but ground was wet from
heavy rains of the previous month.
Corn harvesting was hampered in
many instances due to wet ground
and in some cases three tractors
were used to pull corn pickers.

Ayrshire Herd At
Lancaster Sale
For the first time in as many
years as he can remember, Ken-
neth Rice is living on a dairy farm
where there are no milch cows.
Orchard Farm for the present has
only young stock,
The forty-six stalls in the big
dairy barn stand silent. There is
no rattling of stancheons or gentle
impatient lowing of cows waiting
to be milked.
The forty-two Ayrshires were sold
last Wednesday at a dispersal sale
in Lancaster. It was the end of an
era for George and Kenny Rice.
For more than twenty years—even
since George began experimenting
with Ayrshires at his farm in Leh-
man—ifather and son had been lead-
ing exponents of the breed. They
served on a number of Ayrshire
committees. Theirs was one of the
largest herds in Luzerne County.
But the Ayrshire was not popu-
lar ‘with other local dairymen. It
never took hold as the Holstein did
in the Wyoming and Susquehanna
county areas, or as the Guernsey did
in Luzerne County. Consumers asked
for a milk that showed a distinct
yellow creamline on the bottle.
For all the richness of its milk,
the Ayrshire couldn’t produce the
cream color. It was a naturally
homogenized product. For years the
Rices told that story to other dairy-
men and to consumers, but “one
man or one dairy couldn't do it
alone.” There were too few Ayr-
shire herds and too few Ayrshire
fanciers in the local area.
So Kenneth and his father de-
cided to dispose of the herd at Lan-
caster salesyards, close to the Mary-
land border where Ayrshires are
more popular with dairymen than
they are here.
Two big trailer trucks came up
from the stockyards and transport-
ed the herd to Lancaster on the |
Monday before the Wednesday sale.
After they reached this destina-
tion the animals had to be scrubbed
and readied for exhibition. There
is lots of work entailed in the dis-

persal of a fine dairy herd.
Wednesday dawned as one of the
coldest days of the year. Maryland
was covered with snow. Even the
Lancaster schools closed at 11 a.m.
because of unfavorable weather.
Although there were many bid-
ders at the sale, a number of po-
tential buyers were kept away be-
cause of driving conditions. “I'll bet
the weather cost $1,000 that day”
is the way Kenny put it. “The cat-
tle market generally is at rock bot-
tom—and the weather helped to
freeze it there.”
Now that the Ayrshire herd is
gone, Orchard Farm is planning to
build up a fine Guernsey herd.
Meanwhile the Dairy will continue
to supply its customers as it has
for many years with milk purchased
from many of the finest herds in the
Back Mountain area.

Food Favorite
A favorite in grandmother’s day,
the rutabaga is a food often for-
gotten by the modern generation.
But rutabagas are in plentiful
supply this winter and are a good
buy, too, Helen L. Denning, exten-
sion nutritionist of the Pennsyl-
vania State University, reports.
Choose roots that are firm and
smooth. An extremely large ruta-
baga may be tough and woody or
strong-flavored.
To cook this vegetable, cut in
half-inch crosswise slices and peel.
Then cut into quarters or dice. Use
a cup of boiling water for each
pound of rutabagas. Boil the vege-
table without a lid for 15 minutes.
Then turn down the heat to simmer
and cook for 15 minutes more.

leaf, it's sometimes necessary to
