Hillside Holsteins Receive High Rating Hillside Farms Inc., Trucks- ville, reports that their registered Holsteins were class- ified for body conformation May 11. Including animals previously scored, the Hillside herd has one excellent; 24 very goods and 22 good pluses. The scoring was done by an official classifier of Holstein-Friesan Association of America, Brattleboro, Vt. Dairymen enrolled in this herd improvement program receive a numerical score for each animal evaluated. The True-Type Holstein represents theoretical perfection and has a value of 100 points on the classification score card. Each animal is scored, receiving a rating of excellent, very good, good plus, good, fair, or poor. To provide a more complete image of each animal, the classifier also uses comparative terms to describe 12 major parts of the animal’s physical characteristics. This ‘word pic- ture’ serves as a guide for planning a breeding program to improve the herd. The information from the classification of the herd will be summarized by the Holstein As- sociation on its high speed computer. Returned to the breeder, these reports provide useful information for selection in the herd. The data is also published and available as reference for the herd improve- ment programs of Holstein dairymen everywhere.
