YEARS OF PROVEN EXCELLENCE

NUMBER 2

NOMINATED & 94!

Times Are Changing... It appears the Green Bay Packers have lost the big homefield advantage of Lambeau Field and now are just another team! It seems every week there is another #1 NCAA basketball team. The Michigan State Spartans and Duke Blue Devils are certainly not going to be one of them.

HARDWOOD FARM CONTINUES ON! Donna and I have sold the Livingston dairy farm, along with the two Montfort properties, to our son Chuck.

Chuck has managed the dairy for a number of years. The sale also included the few remaining cattle that we still owned, as well as all feed, machinery, vehicles, and other personal property. The November 19, 2015 test sheet showed 94 cows. The Dec 1st classification listed 43 Excellent cows, along with 3 permanently Excellent dry donors. All but two carry the Hardwood prefix. The two exceptions are: 1) A daughter of a show cow that Chuck owned with Culbertson and Kietzman. 2) A daughter of a pregnant heifer purchased from Steve Holte. Hardwood Farm has long focused on outstanding type with high production of quality milk from cattle with great longevity. This is a conventionally fed stanchioned herd with no TMR. We have long experienced a very high demand for private purchase of breeding stock. You can count on them as being as represented.

She’s doing her part,

‘ ... we’ve got to be doing ours.’

Athletes who train and invest for race-day would have trouble achieving their best performance bogged down by swollen feet. Likewise, the performance of fresh cows and heifers represents a significant investment... “Getting a fresh cow to reach 100% of her potential is every dairyman’s goal. When she’s doing her part, we’ve got to be doing ours. Applying Udder ComfortTM during the first 7 days helps reach that goal,” notes Chuck Worden (left) of Wormont Dairy, milking 260 cows near Cassville, N.Y. “At calving, she’s day-zero with her whole lactation in front of her. The faster we get the swelling out, the faster she can ramp up to meet her potential. We make a 7-day commitment with Udder Comfort to reduce swelling and provide natural support so she is free to hit her stride from zero to 100 right off the block. “Conserving product, along with speed of delivery, make the Udder Comfort Spray Gun system the most cost-effective delivery system in the industry. Our milkers find it easy for doing large groups of fresh cows. Ideal for the parlor, it works on compressed air to spray quickly, consistently, using half as much product while achieving optimal coverage,” explains Worden. “Our SCC has come down as we spray fresh udders after each of the first 8 to 12 milkings post-calving.” “We use the Udder Comfort Spray Gun for fresh udders in the parlor. Fresh cows milk better, faster, with better quality milk going in the tank sooner,” says Randy Tapia (right), manager of the 2800-cow B&C Dairy, owned by Doug and Jake Benson of D&J Dairy, a 5500-cow dairy. The spray gun is used at both West Texas dairies post-calving. “Set up and use is fast, easy and efficient. Fresh cow mastitis is down significantly and fewer fresh cows return to the hospital. SCC is reduced and we hardly ever see bloody milk anymore. Udder Comfort gets edema out faster than anything. Problems are prevented and udders are obviously healthier when we alleviate that pressure and improve comfort.” To learn more, call us for videos and visit our website.
