On the Cover Calling Select Sires home in Plain City, Ohio, these three elite Holstein bulls have captured the attention of registered breeders, commercial dairy producers and the show-focused. Offering a balanced group of sires in the COBA/Select Sires lineup, we can meet the needs of any of today’s dairy producers. From left to right, they are 7HO8190 Gen-Mark Stmatic SANCHEZ (EX-94), definite feet and leg improver while adding style and size; 7HO8221 Golden-Oaks ST ALEXANDER-ET (EX-94), who catches the eye of all the elite show breeders with silky black hides and picture perfect udders; and 7HO8081 Ensenada Taboo PLANET-ET (EX-90-GM), who has captured the attention of the commercial dairy producers by consistently siring outstanding, trouble-free high-milk-producing daughters with shallow well-attached udders. PLANET is the #4 TPI sire in the United States and the #1 LPI bull in Canada.

From the President by Joe Miley Hello, again. I hope everyone is well and has gotten a good start on the summer work. Things are going well at Ohio Holstein. Spring Dairy Expo was very strong with 188 head of Holsteins representing five different states. Congratulations to all exhibitors! Congratulations also to the Buckeye Dairy Club for co-managing a very successful sale. I heard many good comments! We did have a very positive Board meeting in April with good attendance and excellent discussion. There were guests present from the Ayrshire Association, and details were discussed and worked out for the All-Breeds Sale to be held again November 17 in Wooster. Glenn Sageser was also welcomed as the new Holstein USA field rep for Ohio. He plans to spend a large amount of his time in Ohio. You should feel free to contact him with any questions or concerns regarding National Holsteins. General Manger Don Alexander is currently working on the Summer Sale scheduled for August 15 in Wooster. He is also still negotiating with exporters for an order for heifers for Turkey. Contact Don at the office for details. There was also a proposal presented to hold next year’s Annual Meeting and sale in western Ohio. Details are being worked out with the Annual Meeting Committee. The response to this proposal was very exciting! Membership numbers continue to be strong, and Ken Janes has taken on the responsibility of coordinating our membership drive with the district board representatives. Membership is our main source of income, and we need everyone working together to keep it as strong as possible. The Junior Committee is finalizing plans for their trip to National Convention. They will be competing in the Quiz Bowl, Speech and Scrapbook contests. Best of luck to them! Also, Matthew Oechsle sent

in his application and competed in the Young Distinguished Junior Member Contest. I would like to give a special Thank You to Pete Spike for his work on the Ohio Holstein website. If you haven’t checked it out lately, you need to!! Thanks to everyone who has volunteered their time to help with the committees. Without your involvement, there would be no Ohio Holstein Association. The next meeting of the Board of Directors is scheduled for June 12 at 10:30 at the Ohio Holstein office. Our board meetings are open to members, if anyone would like to attend. Please let Diana know, at the office, that you are coming. On a final note, I would like to share a few thoughts that deserve your attention. You need to be aware of the work being done by Scott Higgins and Jenny Hubble, and the staff, at the Ohio Dairy Producers Association. As a board member of the Ohio Dairy Producers Association (ODPA) and fellow dairy farmer, I strongly urge you to consider joining ODPA. Why? It’s simple. ODPA provides a united voice for Ohio dairy farmers — and that voice is needed now more than ever to
Randy & Mike Barn 419-945-2343

keep our industry viable. Together through ODPA we can accomplish what individual dairy farmers can’t do alone. For example, ODPA leadership and farmer members engaged with the Ohio Livestock Care Standards Board (OLCSB) to represent dairy’s best interest and to negotiate practical dairy-specific guidelines. Today, ODPA is taking that same approach and providing farmer input on proposed rules and new agricultural techniques related to water quality issues throughout Ohio’s watershed areas to the Directors’ Agricultural Nutrients and Water Quality Working Group. The more dairy farmers ODPA represents, the stronger and more impactful our voice is when we address critical issues facing Ohio’s dairy industry. When ODPA gives testimony to support or oppose regulatory and policy proposals, the more dairy farms we can say we represent, the more legislators and regulatory staff will listen to what we have to say! So make your voice count, and join ODPA today. For more info about member benefits, visit www.odpa.org or call 1-800-292-MILK. — Joe OHIO NEWS | 5-6/2012 | 5

&RRSHUDWLYH /HDGHUVKLS *ʦLʏʖQɒ &Ƶƥ$ 6ɰȵHFɢ 6ʖȾHɡ The year 2012 is “The International Year of Cooperatives.” A cooperative that serves Ohio dairymen is COBA/Select Sires (COBA). To get some insight regarding the priorities that guide this cooperative organization, we have asked some of their elected and hired leaders to provide answers to some questions. The participants are: 720 )/(0,1*, Harrod, Ohio, has served on the COBA board since 1985 and as the Cooperative’s President since 2004. Pictured below.

Dan: Listen and serve the organization’s farmer-member needs by providing them with the highest quality bovine genetics available at the lowest possible prices. Then go a step beyond this basic premise and provide each member with programs that will help them make better reproductive decisions. Steve: I believe COBA’s top priority is providing the best genetics possible to the members. It is a priority to produce the most fertile, lowest priced semen possible, all the while meeting the needs of all types of breeders. It is a priority to hire top notch employees than can make

the members more successful. It is also a priority to operate the way a co-op is designed to operate. Bernie: To help our memberowner-customers achieve their bovine reproductive and genetic improvement goals. As a cooperative, making a large profit is NOT our highest priority. While we want to be financially strong and stable, our first priority is to help our members make money. Duane: COBA’s highest priority is to serve our member-ownercustomers as a true cooperative. To provide them the highest quality genetics and services through talented and knowledgeable people to help them to not only survive, but to thrive in the dairy industry.
+RZ GR &2%$¶V PHPEHUV FRQWULEXWH WR WKH VXFFHVV RI WKH FRRSHUDWLYH" Tom: COBA is truly a farmer owned and controlled cooperative. The membership elects Directors and Delegates from each of 15 Districts at the district annual meeting held each winter and they are responsible for governing the cooperative. Delegates provide input to the Directors and management as to ways to better serve the industry and the Directors provide management with the support they need to operate COBA on a daily basis. Directors are responsible for hiring the General Manager, setting the budget, determining patronage, long-range planning and setting the policies that COBA follows in their daily operation. Dan: Member-owners are the voice of their co-op. COBA personnel listen to the owners’ genetic problems, desires and new ideas. COBA is a marketing arm of Select Sires. We sell semen. We must listen to what our customers want and then deliver. Steve: By being loyal to their co-op and by providing ideas to them as to what their needs are. COBA takes great pride in listening to the members’ ideas and concerns and taking appropriate action. We
contribute to their success by providing elite genetics to them to help develop the next generation of great bulls and bull mothers. Bernie: Members contribute by showing an interest and seeing that good people get nominated to serve as Directors and Delegates to guide this cooperative. Also, COBA really appreciates it when members tell their neighbors, “COBA is an OK organization and they should give COBA a try,” as it helps us increase our sales and reduce overhead costs per unit sold. Members who are involved in young sire proving programs (including getting daughters of newly proven sires photographed) and fertility trials truly assist in enhancing the quality of the product we provide. Duane: Our members own this cooperative and, in turn, own Select Sires. They contribute to our success through the input they provide to management as members, Delegates and Directors of COBA. We try hard to be very good listeners.

We have had first crop daughters from bulls such as Bell, Planet, Gabor and many more. We have had many Very Good daughters from the PGA program that did not even make the proven lineup. Dan: At Andreas Dairy Farms we are deeply honored to be selected as a worthy cooperating PGA member to identify and evaluate the daughters of the industry’s top new young bulls. Whether it is Select Sires or COBA personnel all have been extremely knowledgeable and professional visiting our farm. They are dedicated people who have one goal in mind and that is to provide each dairyman with the tools necessary to make intelligent breeding decisions. Steve: The ART program has
been a real opportunity for us to bring new genetics into our herd. While we are not the type of producers who go to sales looking to purchase an elite animal, this opportunity seemed like a safe investment being that the most respected stud in the world was backing it up and leading the way. Yes, it is a large investment, but it is one that I hope will pay off one day and I know it has challenged us to be better dairymen and it has certainly kept things interesting. I view this as a necessary move for Select Sires to remain a competitive co-op in the future. I believe they will always strive to treat the breeders who provide them with bulls and bull mothers fairly as we all need each other to be successful. Bernie: The PGA young sire proving program has established itself as the “gold standard” in the industry as daughters are equally scattered in all regions of the country and in all size herds. Over the years this has resulted in the most stable proofs for customers to use with confidence. The ART program has just started bringing forth bulls with some unique pedigrees for sampling in the last year. These bulls do not have royalties. Since genomics became a part of the market place, the number of young sires with royalties has expanded dramatically. As an example our current daughter proven Holstein lineup has 101 bulls and 9 of those have royalties; we also offer
100 young Holstein Super Samplers and 64 of those have royalties. The cost of the royalties affects the price COBA needs to charge per unit. Duane: The PGA is the “gold standard” of sire proving programs—yes, we still believe very much in the value of proven bulls. The proof of the quality of the PGA is verified in the Red Book on the “Daughter Proven Plus Bulls” listing, where Select Sires dominates with 37 out of the Top 100 bulls with reliabilities >97% for milk and type. The ART program is truly “cutting edge” use of genomic information, which means there is some risk involved. It allows Select Sires to reduce the generation interval while maintaining a focus on the varying genetic needs of dairymen in the future.

Oxygen Barrier System This easy to use patented “impermeable” plastic reduces loss of silage in bunker silos to less than 5% and virtually eliminates surface mold. In combination with protective tarps, the film is protected from bird, rodent, and UV damage. To complete the system, Silostop sandbags are used on the overlaps. It is not necessary to provide weight over the entire surface so tires are effectively eliminated.

Richard Indoe and Lynn Willett Receive 2012 OSU Dairy Science Hall of Service Award from an Ohio State University press release
Surrounded by family and friends, Dick Indoe, seated at center, holds his portrait that will be displayed in Plumb Hall at The Ohio State University Dairy Science Hall of Service. Seated with Dick are his sisters, Lois Bangert and Eva Miller. Standing, from left, are Tom Indoe, Sharon Rankin, Tyler Indoe, Mary Bowman, Bill Indoe photo by Karen Welch and presenter David Thorbahn.
Mr. Richard Indoe and Dr. Lynn Willett were awarded one of the highest honors in Ohio’s dairy industry, the Dairy Science Hall of Service Award, by The Ohio State University’s Department of Animal Sciences on Saturday, May 12, 2012. This prestigious award honors those individuals who have made a significant difference in the dairy industry. The presentation was made at the Annual Dairy Recognition Luncheon hosted by the Buckeye Dairy Club and the Department of Animal Sciences. MR. RICHARD INDOE joined his father Kenneth in the family’s farm, known as Richman Farms, upon graduation from The Ohio State University in 1959 with a Bachelor of Science in Dairy Science. Richman Farms is an all-registered herd with one of the highest breed-adjusted averages for Type (BAA) in the State and has one of the most outstanding 2X herd averages for milk production with 74 Holstein, seven Jersey and seven Brown Swiss cows of 28,705 lb. milk, 1,180 lb. fat and 894 lb. of protein. Indoe has sold cattle all over the U.S. and to other countries, including Canada, Greece, Spain and South America. Richman Farms promote their herd and the dairy industry by exhibiting at local, district and national shows, having exhibited several All-American and AllAmerican-nominated cattle. Indoe has been showing at the Ohio State Fair for over 50 years, having received five Grand Champion Holstein banners. He was enshrined in the prestigious Ohio State Fair Hall of Fame in 2010. Indoe has served the Ohio Holstein Association through involvement in committee work, as President of the Association and as a national delegate. He has represented Ohio and dairy farmers around the country by his service as a member of the Board of Directors for the National Holstein Association, USA. In 2008, he received the Ohio Holstein Association Distinguished Service Award. Indoe was a 4-H adviser for 25 years, leading to him receiving the 4-H Meritorious Service Award. He has supported the Medina County FFA chapters by allowing tours and judging contests and by providing meeting rooms 16 | OHIO NEWS | 5-6/2012
for them. He also was a member of the local Joint Vocational School Curriculum Committee and served on the Medina County Fair Board for 15 years. He always graciously provides cattle for the judging contests held during Spring Dairy Expo. He received the Honorary Chapter Farmer Degree from the Cloverleaf FFA Chapter and the FFA Outstanding Service Award. In addition, he served on The Ohio State University Dairy Science Advisory Board and is a past Boy Scout Troop committeeman. DR. LYNN WILLETT received a Bachelor of Science in Dairy Science in 1966 from Colorado State University. He received a M.S. in Dairy Management in 1968 and a Ph.D. in Animal Physiology in 1971, both degrees being from Purdue University. Following graduation, he was a National Aeronautical and Space Administration Fellow for two years at Purdue University and then became an Assistant Professor at The Ohio State University in 1971. He progressed to the rank of Professor, was Associate Chair of the Department of Dairy Science from 1986 through 1994 and retired in 2005. In 1974, the largest chemical contamination incident in the United States occurred in Michigan with the accidental incorporation of polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) into livestock feed, which subsequently was distributed throughout the state. Dr. Willett’s research results played a major role in the procedures for cleanup, risk assessment and regulations regarding this issue and for establishing the regulatory tolerances for PBB in milk and meat. In early 1982, the second biggest chemical contamination incident in US history occurred in Hawaii, when every dairy production unit, except one, was found to have concentrations of a pesticide, Heptachlor, in the milk fat. Willett worked with regulators, dairy industry representatives and legislators to bring the volatile situation under control. Later in the same year, Region V of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed that all dairy and livestock farms with feed storage silos containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) be listed as “Hazardous Waste Sites,” requiring a contained cleanup with all waste removed. Drs. Willett and Ting-Ting Lieu conducted research, and the findings resulted in the EPA rescinding the order. In 1993, Dr. Willett published a paper in the Journal of Dairy Science that described the transfer of soil-borne organohalogen compounds to the plant canopy by volatilization. This work discredited the long-standing theories of translocation of these residues through the root and vascular system of forage plants. Whereas this research had only moderate impact in the Midwest, it resulted in significant impact in the southern and southwestern sections of the U.S., where large tracts of land were switched from cotton production to forages for cattle. These and other scientific endeavors by Dr. Willett provide evidence of his impact on the Ohio and U.S. dairy industry. In addition to the research that he has conducted on the kinetics and toxicity of environmental chemicals on food-producing animals, he has conducted research on carbohydrate utilization in newborn dairy calves. The recognition provided as recipients of the Dairy Science Hall of Service Award acknowledges Mr. Richard Indoe’s and Dr. Lynn Willett’s many contributions to the Ohio and U.S. dairy industry.

On August 8, Hahn-Way moved 30 miles north to Jim and Margie Sunbury’s. We had a smooth transition as we began to move forward. A huge change was going from tie stalls to free stalls. All our girls were quick to catch on and are enjoying their new comfy, sandy beds. The Queens of the herd — Shirley, Tempo and Trina — are all doing well and continue to make us proud daily. November 1 rolled around, and the well-known Mary Haven herd of Richard Bailey’s joined the HahnWay herd, and once again the barns at Von-Sun Farms were filled! Longtime friend Dan Christner joined us on February 3 as our assistant herdsman. In March, we began to milk 3 times a day. All is going very well, and the girls are dairy happy! We are very grateful to Jim and Margie as well as Mr. Bailey. Without them, this wouldn’t be possible. Thank you! There are no words to express the gratitude we have. Several good friends also helped us begin our new journey: Richard and Debbie Owen, Al and Evelyn Loze, Craig Criddle, Todd Plocher and Andy Butler. We believe friends are family you meet along the way. We have been blessed with a great family. Thank you all so very much.
The Mary Haven herd represents an outstanding herd of cows. They all have good udders, great feet and legs, and are well balanced. They work hard with low maintenance. The COBA sires are Advent, Glen, O-Man, Classic, R.S.V.P., LC, Laurin, Binky, Pronto and Mr. Sam. Here are a few highlights from our last testing.
Mary Haven LC 602 156.0 lbs. 3X 62 DIM Mary Haven Mr. Sam 597 132.9 lbs. 3X 185 DIM Mary Haven Classic 591 130.0 lbs. 3X 269 DIM Mary Haven R.S.V.P. 601 127.1 lbs. 3X 246 DIM Mary Haven Glen 617 121.9 lbs. 3X 112 DIM We also have a pen of promising COBA sired heifers They include Advent, Big Time, Dusk, Million and Copenhagen.
Remember... June is dairy month — Promote dairy in any way, shape or form you can!

Your Beef Checkoff Dollars at Work Your Beef Checkoff. Investing in Beef Safety, Nutrition and Promotion.
Promotion
Taste of Beef at the Taste of Home Many of you have undoubtedly picked up and thumbed through the popular Taste of Home magazine to spark your next meal idea. You may even have one of their many cookbooks sitting in the stove-top cupboard ready for the next time you feel creative(as my mother does). What you may not know is that Taste of Home also offers numerous cooking schools across the national where Taste of Home chefs demonstrate recipes featured inside their publications. The Ohio Beef Council (OBC) joined Akron’s Taste of Home Cooking School in April taking advantage of a great opportunity to educate loyal Taste of Home fans who have the grilling season on their minds. OBC staffers were joined by Laura Schmuki, Stark County Beef Queen, who handed out flat iron steak samples. The product samples proved to be a great conversation starter with folks who overwhelmingly had never heard of this “diamond in the rough” beef cut that retails for roughly six dollars per pound. The evening was capped off when one lucky attendee received a grill kit garnished with the Healthy Beef Cookbook, steak rubs and, oh yes, two flat iron steaks for their enjoyment.
Educating Nutrition Influencers Nationally, the Checkoff’s Beef Nutrition News is providing registered dietitians and other health professionals with information about beef’s often overlooked nutritional and health benefits.
Reaching more than 4,000 recipients, Beef Nutrition News is keeping lean beef in the forefront of nutrition influencers’ minds from coast to coast. Newsletter highlights have included articles about nutrition labels in the meat case, the findings of the BOLD study, and delicious lean beef recipes. OBC works to reinforce these national efforts in Ohio by connecting with nutrition influencers at the grassroots level. OBC staffers recently visited the Ohio Dietetic Association’s Annual Conference to build connections with the more than 500 registered dieticians in attendance while extending the healthy beef message. Registered dieticians directly connect and influence consumers who make food choices everyday. With an active voice among this network, beef will continue to improve its image for our consumers.
Please Welcome Team BEEF Ohio Beef Council is proud to introduce our newest movement in promoting lean beef in a healthy diet - Team BEEF. What is Team BEEF? In short, it is a running team of beef spokespeople who understand the benefits of including lean beef in a healthy, active lifestyle and are willing to compete at various fitness events (i.e. marathons, 5k’s, triathlons) with one goal - spreading the lean beef message. Team BEEF will work to connect the fitness community with the 29 lean cuts of beef our industry has to offer each day. Mark your calendar and plan to
help cheer on Team BEEF at its firstever event on Sunday, June 17, at the Canton Marathon. Team BEEF will feature three relay teams comprised of cattle farmers, industry experts from the Certified Angus Beef ® brand and average consumers who are huge fans of lean beef. With continued effort in the Team BEEF initiative, your checkoff will prove once and for all that beef is the perfect fuel for the finish.
Mark Your Calendars for the American Grillmaster Experience
Coming to Ohio is the American Grillmaster Experience in partnership with the Beef Checkoff. For the second year, this tour will hit the road to offer beef grilling demonstrations, product samples and recipe information to Sam’s Club shoppers in 28 states around the nation. “Savvy consumers want to see, try, taste and experience products for themselves before they make purchasing decisions,” says Jane Frost, cowcalf producer from San Jon, N.M., and vice-chair of the checkoff’s Joint Retail Committee. “Connecting with consumers through promotional sampling in an environment of fun and excitement proves to be one of the best platforms for engaging our target audience and promoting our beef products.” The tour will hit Ohio by way of the Canton Sam’s Club location on Saturday, June 30.
The Ohio Beef Council and the Cattlemen’s Beef Promotion and Research Board are responsible for developing programs that increase the demand for beef. For more information, contact the Ohio Beef Council, 10600 U.S. Highway 42, Marysville, Ohio 43040, 614-8736736, beef@ohiobeef.org.

A 2 for 1 Deal! The Ohio State team of Kevin Jacque, Melinda Miller, Emily Stayduhar, Kati Stevens, coached by Maurice Eastridge, took first place at the 2012 North American Intercollegiate Dairy Challenge in Roanoke.
ROANOKE, VA, March 31, 2012 — Gracious dairy farm hosts and warm, sunny weather welcomed 128 students to southern Virginia for the 11th annual Dairy Challenge®. The 2012 contest attracted dairy students from 32 colleges across the United States and Canada and was hosted by Virginia Tech and North Carolina State University. This innovative educational program — North American Intercollegiate Dairy Challenge® (NAIDC) — has helped prepare 3,500 students for careers in the dairy industry, dairy production and veterinary medicine. “Students hone their ability to work as a team and improve their time management, critical thinking and public speaking skills through participation in Dairy Challenge,” explained David R. Winston, coordinator of the 2012 contest and Extension Dairy Scientist-Youth at Virginia Tech. “Employers in today’s dairy job market seek to hire employees with excellent communication and dairy management skills, and NAIDC is a prime opportunity to advance these skills.” At Dairy Challenge, each team of four students puts textbook know84 | OHIO NEWS | 5-6/2012

management. The teams presented their recommendations to owners, while being evaluated by a panel of five judges — dairy producers, veterinarians, farm finance specialists and industry personnel. In the 2012 Dairy Challenge, First Place awards were earned by THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY, Cornell University, University of Guelph and University of Wisconsin-Platteville. Each first-place team member received a $200 scholarship. The Ohio State team included Kevin Jacque, Melinda Miller, Emily Stayduhar, Kati Stevens and coach Maurice Eastridge. Members of Second Place teams each earned a $100 scholarship. Four dairies opened up every aspect of their farms for analysis by student-teams. In exchange, they received a wealth of ideas to fine-tune management, from the students as well as the judges panel. Host dairies for the 2012 Dairy Challenge were Hammock Dairy Inc., Chatham, VA; Hodges View Farms, Rocky Mount, VA; Hoha Dairy, Rocky Mount, VA; Jareco Farms, LLC, Penhook, VA. Over 70 representatives from 40 dairy companies and organizations volunteered as contest judges and assistants. NAIDC — with one national and four regional contests — is fully funded through generous support by 125 agribusinesses and dairy producers, and programs are coordinated by a volunteer board of directors. The 2013 national contest will be April 4-6 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, hosted by Michigan State University, Ohio State University and Purdue University. Four regional contests will be held in late fall 2012 and winter 2013; details are at www.dairychallenge.org/calendar_news.php.

BarbWire SHATTO MILK COMPANY The National Holstein Convention will be held June 27-30, 2012, in Springfield, Missouri. There are Barb Lumley numerous outings planned, as well as tours to well-known Holstein farms, and business meetings and banquets. While in Missouri you just might want to take a little side trip to a small town called Osborn, population 434 (10 farm, 424 nonfarm). There you will find the Shatto Milk Company, a small family-owned and operated dairy farm located just north of the Kansas City metropolitan areas. Barb and Leroy Shatto and their family have been farming for more than 100 years and began their dairy farm 60 years ago. In June 2003 the family began processing their own milk on the farm for the purpose of providing customers with the freshest and best-tasting products possible. Their motto is “Milk At Its Finest.” They farm 400 acres, and the milk comes from their herd of 120 Holstein cows that receive no BST. Milk can be from the cow to the store in as little as twelve (12) hours. The Shatto Milk Company provides their milk in glass bottles. Their reasons for that decision are very simple. Glass bottles keep milk colder, and colder milk is more desirable. Glass bottles are environmentally friendly and can be returned and reused, thus lowering the amount of material in landfills. Unlike paper or plastic, glass imparts no foreign odor or flavor. Glass bottles are most notable in history for containing farm-fresh milk. Shatto milk is available in all sizes of glass containers: half gallon, quart and pint, and there are the usual flavors: white and chocolate; however they also have several other interesting flavors: orange crème (tastes just like Creamsicles), strawberry, eggnog, banana, root beer, and a recently new flavor, cotton candy. They also sell ice cream, and cheese curds are available in cajun, cheddar and dill flavors. Not only do they deliver to numerous large stores in the Kansas City area, they also have their own store on the farm, where they sell their milk, ice cream, cheese curds, butter, tee shirts advertising their different flavors of milk, and Shatto Milk Soap in Peppermint, Green Tea, Lily of the Valley and Lavender scents and Oatmeal. They also host farm tours and picnics and publish a monthly newsletter. They made their decision to start bottling their own milk because of low milk prices and the economic difficulty that comes with just milking the cows and selling milk. Perhaps dairy farmers today should consider ideas to change their income from milking cows — and especially the small dairy farmers, who do not want to milk large numbers of cows.
A recent article in the newspaper stated that stores cannot keep up with the demand for organic milk. With the HSUS constantly in the media causing consumers to question how dairy cows are treated, perhaps dairy farmers could bottle and sell their own milk from “Peaceful Pastures,” where dairy cows roam free and graze on choice green grasses. Consumers will pay the price if it makes them feel better, and they think it is healthier for them! How about making and selling ice cream right on the farm in your own “Dairy Dream” store? Look how people flock to the ice cream stands when they open in the spring. Other items could be included in your menu. During the colder months, lattes and hot chocolate could be featured with various ideas to attract the attention of consumers. How about “Peppermint Hot Chocolate,” a big mug of hot chocolate made with real milk, topped with real whipped cream and sprinkled with peppermint candy bits; or “Strawberry Hot Chocolate,” a mug of hot chocolate topped with whipped cream with a large chocolate-covered strawberry on top; or “S’mores Hot Chocolate,” hot chocolate topped with whipped cream and sprinkled with graham cracker crumbs? Available to enjoy with your drink could be cookies and pastries made with real milk, cream pies or even hot soups made with milk and cream. Or how about letting consumers visit the farm, look over the cows and select the cow that they would like to have their milk come from. The opportunity to buy milk from a Grand Champion cow could be quite appealing. Of course, since this would involve more time and work, the milk would have to cost more. However, there is no doubt in my mind that there are people out there that would pay the price for that privilege. Look at the prices people pay for a certain bottle of wine or designer clothes! Any milk left over from their orders would go into the tank and be sold as usual. And I am sure there is some genius out there who could figure out how to do this efficiently! And what if, in looking over the cattle, the children in the family fall in love with a certain baby calf and would like milk from it? The family could put down a “deposit” to hold that calf for their milk when it becomes a cow. When you buy a truck, piece of machinery or farm, don’t you put down a deposit to hold it until the transaction is complete? What about a quiet dairy farm complete with a spa, where consumers could enjoy warm milk baths to rejuvenate and condition their bodies and skin. Milk baths were popular in ancient times. The spa would provide massages and rubdowns with products made from butter and cream to soften the skin and help with wrinkles. And when they are all done, they can take home some scented milk soap for bathing. With all those Hollywood women willing to pay any price to stay beautiful, I can’t believe that no California dairyman has thought of a dairy spa! These are wild ideas you say? Once upon a time so were milking machines, artificial insemination, pizza, a man on the moon, computers, texting, botox………!! OHIO NEWS | 5-6/2012 | 89

Ohio Holstein Women’s News The Ohio Holstein Women’s Committee annual meeting was held at 8:00 a.m. on March 17, 2012, at the state convention. A big thank you goes to District 8 for planning the convention and to the Berg family who hosted Friday’s barn meeting open house. Great food, entertainment, cattle judging and positive morale of all who were present made for a fun time. To quote President Joe Miley in the previous issue of the Ohio News, “you missed a wonderful opportunity” if you were not present. The meeting portion followed its regular order of segments. The meeting was called to order, and the minutes were read by Sara Twining. Treasurer Lisa Mangun reported a balance of $5,712.56 before 2012 meeting expenses. The Queen’s Committee consisted of Laurie Menzie, Megan Buechner and Tammie Carle. Congratulations to Queen Jacquelyn Sherry, first runner-up Kalley Martin and honorable mention Katelynn McDaniel. Queen Jacquelyn of Greenville, the daughter of Bill and Stephanie Sherry, is a sophomore at The Ohio State University. She is studying Animal Science and Agricultural Communications. Kalley is the daughter of Jeffrey and Kay Martin. Katelynn is the daughter of John and Vickie McDaniel. Thanks to the contestants for taking the time and effort to make the contest a success. From the field of seven distinguished applicants, chair Julie Renner and members from the Scholarship Committee selected Kara Uhlenhake as the scholarship winner. Kara is the daughter of Barb and the late Gary
Uhlenhake of Coldwater, Ohio, in Mercer County. Kara is a junior at The Ohio State University and is involved in the Buckeye Dairy Club at OSU. She was the Dairy Princess for Mercer County. In addition to her school life, she finds time to work on the Uhlenhake Farm, the Buscher Dairy and the Dues Dairy Farms. Laurie Menzie, Greta Call and Kaye Janes made up the Woman of the Year Committee. The 2012 Woman of the Year honor was awarded to Regina Berg. Regina was involved with Holsteins in District 1 (Trumbull County) before she moved to District 8. She is married to Walter Berg and mother to daughter Becky and son Peter. The Woman of the Year is active in producing the success of Be-Ware Holsteins. Regina completes such chores as raising newborn calves, feeding heifers, registering the cattle, milking — and the list goes on. Outside the farm, she accomplished being part of various community boards, PTO, historical societies, Farm Bureau and serving as an election poll worker. She truly represents Ohio Woman of the Year well, and we wish her continued success. The Fun Auction had many nice items (see below). Much gratitude is given to the donors and buyers for a great sale. Steve Moff was the auctioneer. Max Dunseth and Don Alexander helped get the bids. Be thinking throughout the year of what your district can donate for 2013. Collect ideas, money and items to represent your district. The Ohio Holstein Women appreciate your efforts in making the auction a success. $1,545.00 was collected from the Fun Auction.

The Holstein Women’s Committee election results were to retain Kathy Johnson as president and Betty Whiteleather as vice president. Lisa Mangun is the treasurer, and Sara Twining is the secretary. The meeting closed with a very informative presentation on Estate Planning and Agriculture given by attorney Kathryn Frombaugh from Lorain County. It is important that everyone should get their affairs in order,
so that the next generation can carry on the family tradition. It is a matter that should not be put off. In an ever-changing world, it is a topic that might well be revisited if a plan is presently in effect. Give it some meaningful thought. Attorney Frombaugh may be reached at www.frombaughlaw.com, if you would care to speak with her about estate planning. Respectfully submitted, Kathy Johnson

INDIANA Mike JONES
From
National Director
HELLO, everyone. What a spring! Here it is the middle of May in west-central Indiana, and we have corn two feet tall. We started cutting second-cutting alfalfa, and all in all, this year’s crop is off to a great start.
I hope many of you got to make it to the Spring Expo. I thought it was another great show in Ohio with tremendous quality throughout. Congratulations to all the winners. I know many of the 4-Hers are getting out of school and getting ready for summer county fairs. It sure is getting busy around Springbrook with nine boys and girls in 4-H this year. If you get a chance, try to make it to Missouri for the Nartional Convention, and be with other breeders and get some ideas that might help you with your herd and dairy at home.
Here in Indiana, we are getting excited and nervous for preparing next year’s National Convention. It sure does take a lot of work! On May 9, Brian Engleking, an Indiana friend and also a classifier for HAUSA, was working in Wisconsin when he got T-boned by a cement truck. They had to use the jaws of life to get him out of his car. Brian is home now and mending slowly. He said next time he makes a cow 89, he will make sure the owner doesn't own a cement truck (ha ha). Well, I’ve got to get back to work. Hope to see you at convention. — Indiana Jones Grapevine – continued from page 10

FROM YOUR REGIONAL REPRESENTATIVE… by Glenn Sageser As some of you may have already heard, our regional representative territories have been slightly realigned, and I will now be Glenn Sageser covering the entire state of Ohio. Some of you I have had the pleasure of working with for years, and I am looking forward to meeting those of you whom I have not met yet. Holstein Association USA has some new products and options for members that we are eager to share with you! Our most exciting announcement this year is the new Dairy Rhythms Herd Management Software. This is a program that allows breeders to manage your herd’s traditional health and reproductive data, right alongside genetic, pedigree, classification and production record information, in one convenient program. Dairy Rhythms is able to store, query and build reports on the essential information you use every day to help make decisions and manage your herd. It includes unique features, which make it perfectly suited for Holstein breeders who want to handle their information even more efficiently... • Syncs directly with the Holstein Association USA database for complete genetic, pedigree and classification information, as soon as it is available. Access your animal’s PTAs and linear breakdowns as easily as looking up when she was last bred. • Stores Official Holstein Pedigrees and provides family tree information with the touch of a button. • Syncs with AgriTech Analytics (ATA) for complete production record information. • Includes a module to manage your embryo transfer program, including tracking embryo inventory and status. • Generates custom reports quickly and easily with flexible query functions. • Easy to navigate, with wellorganized menus and clearly labeled data. 100 | OHIO NEWS | 5-6/2012
The program is billed on a subscription basis, with herds participating in Holstein COMPLETE and processing their DHI records with AgriTech Analytics, the DRPC owned by Holstein Association USA, receiving special $25 per month pricing. Holstein COMPLETE herds also now receive volume discounts for tests done throughout your enrollment year. Tests 1 through 14 are billed at standard pricing; tests 15-50 are discounted 3%, and tests 51 and over are discounted 7%. Savings are applied at the end of your COMPLETE
enrollment year, as a credit to your Holstein account. If you are not yet a Holstein COMPLETE herd, the time has never been better to see if it can help you save. In 2011, COMPLETE herds saved an average of 10 percent compared to what they would have spent if purchasing the services individually! On a final note, the Holstein Foundation graduated its seventh class of the renowned Young Dairy Leaders Institute (YDLI) in March. This program brings together young people from around the U.S., and Regional Rep – continued on page 106

R. PETER HEFFERING, 80, of Hanover Hill Holsteins, Port Perry, Ontario, died March 3, 2012, in Florida. Few breeders of Holsteins have been as successful in the show ring and sale ring. He developed Hanover Hill Starbuck, his son Raider and grandson Mirage as the only three-generation line of Excellent Class Extra bulls in the breed. Hanover Hill earned multiple All-American nominations and All-Canadian nominations resulting in 31 All-Americans, 34 Reserve All-Americans, 24 All-Canadians and 18 Reserve AllCanadians. From 1983 thru 1988, they were Premier Breeder at World Dairy Expo and Royal Winter Fair. One of the most notable champions was the Havens Family Ohio-bred Brookview Tony Charity, five time All-Canadian and four time All-American. She was the only Holstein to be Grand Champion three times at the Royal and Grand and Supreme Campion four times at WDE. In 1982, she was the first cow to be Grand Champion of all three US National Shows in the same
year. Charity sold in the 1985 Canadian Hanover Hill Sale for $1,450,000 — the first dairy animal ever to sell for over $1 million at a public auction in Canada, which remains a Canadian record 27 years later. Among other top selling animals in his career were Tara-Hills Pride Lucky Barb at $122,000 and her son Hanover-Hill Triple-Threat-Red for $60,000 at the New York Hanover-Hill Dispersal in 1972. In 1989, Heffering turned to Standardbred horses and harness racing, where he was equally successful. In 1996, he and his son David opened Tara Hills stud at Port Perry, which is regarded as one of North America’s premier Standardbred breeding operations. Heffering received the Klussendorf Trophy at WDE in 1985 and was inducted into the Canadian Agricultural Hall of Fame in 2009 and Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame in 2010. Peter Heffering is survived by his wife Apryll, son David and his wife Nora, and granddaughters Taylor and Abbie. He was predeceased by his son Richard in 2011. (Additional information, written by Bonnie E. Cooper, editor of the Canadian Journal, was printed in the April 2012 Holstein World.)

2012 All-Ohio Recognition 1. A point system will be used to determine All-Ohio winners for the 2012 show season. Red & White and Black & White Holsteins registered with the Holstein Association USA, Inc. at 87% RHA or greater are eligible for recognition.
used for the Junior Three-Year-Old, Senior Three-Year-Old and Four-Year-Old photo. If taken as a five-year-old, this photo can be used for the Five-Year-Old, Aged and 125,000 Pound Cow. For group classes, pictures are accepted, but not required.
2. Points are awarded for the following shows: A) Spring Dairy Expo; B) Ohio State Fair; C) A District Show; D) All National Shows. In order to substitute points, the animal must have been shown at either the Ohio State Fair or the Spring Dairy Expo.
Example: If you exhibited “Bessie” at Spring Dairy Expo and she was first place and received 20 points and then received 10 points at a district show, but was not shown at the Ohio State Fair, and if Bessie’s owner exhibited at the Ohio State Fair and then took Bessie to Harrisburg where she stood fifth, those 12 points could be substituted for the Ohio State Fair. But if “Bessie” did not go to the Spring Dairy Expo or the Ohio State Fair, she is not eligible for All-Ohio.
3. Point system is as follows: A. Spring Dairy Expo, Ohio State Fair and National Shows except the International Holstein Show (Madison, WI): Top ten (10) placings – 1st-20, 2nd-18, 3rd-16, 4th-14, 5th-12, 6th-10, 7th-8; 8th-6, 9th-4, 10th-2. B. District Shows: All animals shown at any district show will get a one-time 10-point score toward All-Ohio. C. International Holstein Show (Madison, WI): Top fifteen (15) placing – 1st-30, 2nd-28, 3rd-26, 4th-24, 5th-22, 6th20, 7th-18, 8th-16, 9th-14, 10th-12, 11th-10, 12th-8, 13th6, 14th-4, 15th-2. For the three-year-old classes, only the Junior Three-Year-Old and Senior Three-Year-Old placings (not Futurity placings) can be used. D. For Red & White Holsteins, the Grand International Red & White Show at Madison: Top twelve (12) placings – 1st-25, 2nd-23, 3rd-21, 4th-19, 5th-17, 6th-15, 7th-13, 8th-11, 9th9, 10th-7, 11th-5, 12th-3. E. For Red & White Holsteins, all other National Red & White Shows: Top ten (10) placings – 1st-10, 2nd-9, 3rd-8, 4th-7, 5th-6, 6th-5, 7th-4, 8th-3, 9th-2, 10th-1. 4. Points can be counted from a District Show and two other shows. See Rule 2 for a listing of shows that may be used. 5. Points at a National Show can be substituted for the Spring Dairy Expo or State Fair points, but the exhibitor must have exhibited at the show in order to substitute for that particular show. No points from any shows can be substituted for your district points. Dry cows have been eliminated from Spring Dairy Expo and State Fair but will continue at the District level, because no points can be substituted at the District level. No dry cow points from any National shows can be substituted for any milking cow classes.
Type Production Awards — The Ohio Purebred Dairy Cattle Association will present a banner to the high-producing cow in each breed. This award will be based upon the combined total for protein and fat yields of the last actual completed record of the individual, adjusted to a 305 day, 2X age corrected basis. The record must be coded as test type 00 through 3 (formerly official DHI or official DHIR), and the record will be taken from the DRPC individual cow report furnished by the owner of the animal. To qualify, the animal must place in the top five places of her respective class at the current State Fair. The record must have been completed within 12 months prior to the date of the show to be considered. Bred and Owned — An award will be given to the top-placing animal bred and owned by exhibitor in each class. These animals will then be considered for Champion bred and owned by exhibitor.
CANFIELD FAIR Wednesday through Labor Day Annually
Don’t Miss the Big One
6. An exhibitor must show one or more animals at a District Show to have any animals eligible for All-Ohio. Animals can be shown in only one class in any show. 7. To be eligible for All-Ohio honors, exhibitor must be a member of the Ohio Holstein Association as of April 1, 2012. An animal whose ownership is transferred outside of the state during the course of the show season can still compete for All-Ohio under previous ownership but must meet this condition and all other rules listed. Eligible points follow the animal for calculation. 8. No All-Ohio points will be given at the Spring Dairy Expo for Spring Heifer calves. 9. A professional 5 x 7 photograph must be on file with the Ohio Holstein Association for an animal to be considered for AllOhio honors. All photos of heifers must be current year photos. If you have taken a photo of a two-year-old cow, this photo can be used for the Junior Two-Year-Old, Senior Two-Year-Old, and Junior Three-Year-Old, and Senior Three-Year-Old cows. If you have the photo taken as a three-year-old, then this photo can be

Hey, Juniors! Summer is right around the corner, and with it comes the end of school, fieldwork, summer ball, and most of all, National Convention and summer shows! So this is not going to be very long — just a couple of housekeeping things. First: Good luck to our Junior and Senior Quiz Bowl teams heading to National Convention in Missouri the end of June! Anna Miley and I Second: The raffle tickets are now available for Ohio Juniors to sell at at the Ohio Holstein Convention district and county shows for the AWESOME donations that our new advisor, Matt Lawson, has coordinated — a Sullivan chute again from Becks Hybrids, a Kalahari family weekend from Cargill and Michelle Burky, a cane of Wabash-Way Explode donated by Terry Stammen and family, one free flush courtesy of Nate Steiner and one free photo setup cosponsored by Jenny Thomas and Cybil-Fisher Photography. Thanks to all these great people and organizations for supporting the Juniors! So, Juniors, SELL THOSE TICKETS! If you didn’t get any sent to you, please contact the Ohio Holstein office to get some, or ask an advisor when you see them at the show. Third: Welcome to our new advisory committee adults! Co-chairs with my mom and dad now are Matt and Megan Lawson. Also coming in with fresh ideas are Dallas Rynd and Judy Wolford, Peter and Cathy Berg and Jen Bouton. They join existing committe advisors, Lamar and Estelle Liming, Roy and Lisa Mangun and Joyce Nelson. Fourth and final and REALLY EXCITING: The Juniors are using some of the funds raised from last year’s chute raffle, donated by Beck’s Hybrids, to host a dance/activity fun night at the Ohio State Fair on Friday night, July 27, in Cooper Arena for all dairy Junior members after the Junior Show and judging contests that day. Watch for details in your mailbox and, hopefully, state fair entries. There will be a DJ, corn hole, food and fun, so plan on sticking around for that Friday night!! Good luck at the shows this summer!! If you have questions or ideas, message the Ohio Junior Holstein Association Facebook page or email my mom at jacherholsteins@gmail.com!

— Ohio’s Statewide 2012 Dairy Palooza —
from an article by Bonnie Ayars
Although the term “palooza” has not yet entered most dictionaries, it is a slang word referring to a multitude of events that are superior or unusual! If that is the definition, Ohio’s Dairy Palooza lived up to everyone’s expectations. Held on April 28 at the Wayne County Fairgrounds, nearly 275 attendees representing 30 Ohio counties traveled to this event hosted by a volunteer committee working with 4-H dairy youth specialist Bonnie Ayars. Although Mother Nature was having a mood swing outside with a variety of chilly weather, the atmosphere inside was filled with enthusiasm! Dairy Palooza 2012 was a one-day educational program for dairy youth enthusiasts and leaders interested in learning more about dairy projects with hands-on activities that related to current topics of concern. Printed resources and informational items were carefully bound in notebooks and distributed at the registration table. These were connected to each of the workshop sessions. Preregistered participants received more free items than an Oprah Winfrey show! There was a red bucket that became

the tote for a rope halter, a feed scoop, the binder of resources and all the items from the career fair. The day included four separate sessions, and within each of these, four workshops were offered with suggested levels of experience ranging from Cloverbuds and beginners to intermediates and seniors. Demonstrations, skits, roleplaying, mock scenarios, live cattle and hands-on activities were methods used to teach. From bovine laundry to an actual herd display set up for viewing, from selecting projects on the hoof and on paper to communication techniques with consumers, from Skillathon stations to showmanship best practices and a career fair ongoing, everyone left with improved skills and a broader base of knowledge. The day was not without elegant “cow cuisine” and real dairy products. Cow cookies with all breeds represented set the pace at the registration table, and there were cheesy pizzas accompanied by donated milk beverages. However, the specially designed and theme decorated cake with butter cream frosting was an absolute crowd pleaser as a sweet treat to the day’s conclusion. The ice cream bars and sandwiches were also welcome additions. This remarkable event could not have taken place without an army of dedicated volunteers and presenters. Key sponsors donated more than their time, giving other resources and financial support to enrich the program. It took weeks and months of planning, and all deserve a round of applause for their efforts. So if you are feeling remorse at missing our 2012 rendition, the good news is that there WILL be another version in 2013. The date is yet to be determined. New topics, new updates and a promise of more to see and do will be the goals of the committee. Sponsor Link: www.4hansci.osu.edu/dairy. Photos are posted on Facebook, Ohio 4-H Dairy Program.

2012 Buckeye Classic Elite Holstein Sale The 32nd annual Buckeye Classic Holstein Sale was held on March 30, 2012, during the Spring Dairy Expo at Columbus, Ohio. The first lot stepped into the ring at 12:50 p.m. to continue the tradition of this student activity begun on May 16, 1981, in the Plumb Hall Arena at The Ohio State University. The stylish two-year-old Zenith daughter (Pine-Tree Zenith Allstar) was already scored VG-87 and milking 93 lbs. on her most recent test. She was consigned by Matthew Steiner of Rittman, Ohio, and sold to Wachtelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Spring Walk Dairy of Big Prairie, Ohio, at $4,000. When the gavel fell on the last lot of the sale, 47 head of cows, mostly heifers, had been sold for an average of $2,287 in addition to one lot of five embryos, which brought $2,375. The sale was co-managed with the Ohio Holstein Association with Laura Gordon and Matthew Borchers as student co-chairs. Commanding the top bid of $5,100 from Kurt Wyler of Fresno, Ohio, was Lot 21, Weikland Lou JW Rae, an EX-90 consignment from Victoria, Ian and Bryce Watson of Republic, Ohio. A four-year-old, she was fresh two weeks and milking 130 lbs. on her first test day. She was the 2010 Reserve All-Ohio and Junior All-Ohio Senior Two-Year-Old. Also struck off at $5,100 was Lot 1, Pierstein Goldwyn Delta-ET, on the bid from Chuck Curtiss of Ballston Spa, New York. She was carrying a Windhammer ultrasound heifer and scored VG-86 at three years of age. Her dam was scored EX-2E in Canada and had been nominated AllCanadian Three-Year-Old in 2002. A pair of high genome (GTPI over +2000) yearling heifers from outstanding pedigrees with EX dams and

grandams were sold for $4,100 and $4,000, respectively. Quality-Quest D Mainfire, a daughter of Domain from Doug Dye of Beloit, Ohio, was sold to Jake Hein of Celina, Ohio. Her dams were EX-90 3E and EX-93 3E with lifetime production well over 200,000 lb. milk. Bringing $4,000 on the bid from Emerald Quest of Jeromeville, Ohio, and Brett Besancon of Wooster, Ohio, was Golden-Oaks Obsrvr ParisET, an Observer daughter consigned by Golden Oaks Farm of Wauconda Illinois. She was backed by seven generations of EX dams, six of them DOM and/or GMD and tracing from Roxy herself.

Junior All-Ohio Rules The Junior All-Ohio winners are featured in the All-Ohio Calendar and owners receive a special award at the Annual Meeting. To be eligible for Junior All Ohio Awards, youth should be members of the Ohio Junior Holstein Association by May 1 of the current year. The awards are selected by a point system under the following rules: I. OWNERSHIP A. Animals must be owned and registered in the name(s) of one or more Ohio Junior Holstein Association members. For animals owned in partnership, all owners must be members of their Junior Holstein Association. All animals must stand on the Association records in the individual name of the exhibitor. Adult-Junior partnerships are not acceptable, unless all members are Junior members and listed on the registration paper. Multiple Junior exhibitors may own an animal in partnership if the animal is exhibited by the partnership throughout the entire show season. B. Registrations or transfers to the Ohio Junior Member(s) must be made by June 1, 2012 for cows two years or older and for calves and yearlings. II. ELIGIBLE ANIMALS A. Animals must meet the ownership requirements listed above. B. To be eligible for points from placings at the District, State and National shows, the animal must have been shown by one of the Ohio Junior member-owners. C. Junior exhibitors must show their own animals to be considered for Junior awards. Exceptions will be made for exhibitors who may be physically impaired, have two animals showing in the same class or must be absent on show day due to other commitments. In case of these exceptions, another boy or girl who meets the age requirements of the respective breed may show the animal with the authorization of the breed superintendent. Such authorization must be sought in writing, prior to the show and verified by a signed notice by the person in charge of the conflicting activity. III. POINT SYSTEM A. Spring Expo Show and Ohio State Fair Junior Show — 20 points for first place through two points for tenth place. Note: Ohio Junior Holstein Association members too old to show in the Junior show at the Ohio State Fair may use open class placings against Juniors’ animals owned and shown by Juniors. Juniors must be under 21 as of January 1, 2012. B. Points from placings from any National Junior Show, designated by the National Junior Advisory Committee, can be substituted in place of a lower point total received from placing at either the Ohio State Fair or the Spring Dairy Expo. The animal must be exhibited by one of the Junior owners to be eligible for points. If the animal is not shown by one of the Junior owners at a show, it cannot earn Junior All-Ohio points, and points from placings at the National Junior Show cannot be substituted. C. District Shows – Ten points for any animal shown. Note: It is recommended that districts report placings of all District Juniors showing. Dry cows have been eliminated from Spring Dairy Expo and State Fair but will continue at the District level, because no points can be substituted at the District level. No dry cow points from any National shows can be substituted for any milking cow class. D. In case of ties, two awards will be given. IV. HOW TO ENTER A. Submit a 5 x 7 professional photograph of the animal. All photos of heifers must be current year photos. If you have taken a photo of a two-year-old cow, this photo can be used for Junior Two-Year-Old, Senior Two-Year-Old, Junior Three-Year-Old and 110 | OHIO NEWS | 5-6/2012
——————
Senior Three-Year-Old cows. If you have the photo taken as a threeyear-old, then this photo can be used for the Three-Year-Old and the Four-Year-Old photo. If taken at four years, the photo can be used for the Four- and Five-Year-Old photo. If taken as a five year old, this photo can be used for the Five-Year-Old, Aged and 125,000 Pound Cow. (These photo changes are also used in the All-Ohio rules.) B: Submit a copy of both sides of the animal’s registration certificate showing ownership of the animal and transfer dates. Photo, certificate and completed application must be received by the Ohio Holstein Association Office, Wooster, Ohio, by December 1, 2012. C. The application forms will be available from the Ohio Holstein office and will be printed in the September/October News. EXAMPLES: Joe Junior owns Bessie. He exhibits other animals at the Spring Expo but does not show Bessie at the Spring Expo. He shows her in her class at his district show and places first. He shows her at the state fair and places fourth. He now has: 10 points from the district show and 14 points from the state fair. That is a total of 24 points. He then shows her at the National Junior Show and places second. The points earned at the National Junior Show may be substituted for the state fair points. He cannot substitute the placing at the National Junior Show for the Spring Expo points he missed by not showing Bessie there. After the substitution, Joe and Bessie have 10 points from the district and 18 points from the National Junior Show for a total of 28. Jane Junior owns Bossie. She has to attend a school function during the Spring Expo Show. She contacts the show management ahead of time and asks permission to have her heifer shown by another Junior member. Jane’s Junior friend and Bossie place fifth at the Spring Expo Show. Jane does show her heifer at the State Fair and at the National Junior Show and places second at each. She also showed Bossie at her District Show and placed first. Jane’s points from the Spring Expo Show (she is eligible because she asked permission and had another Junior show Bossie), from the State Fair and from the District are: 12+18+10=40. However, Jane CAN substitute her National Junior Show placing for the Spring Expo Show. Her new total is: 18+18+10=46. Dick Junior owns Flo. He enters her in the Spring Expo, but Dick’s dad shows Flo in her class. Dick shows Flo at the state fair and at his district show. He places third at each. He then takes her to the National Junior Show and Dick shows her there to third place. After the state fair and the district show, Dick and Flo have 16+10=26. Dick cannot substitute the National Junior Show placing for the placing Flo and his dad earned at the Spring Expo. Because Dick did not show his own animal or ask permission to have another Junior show, his animal at the Spring Expo Show, he cannot receive any points for the Spring Expo Show and placings from another show cannot be used in place of the Spring Expo Show.
