About the Cover Lantland Windbrook Hysteria (EX-91), owned by Jacob Menzi, Millport, NY, has become one of the most recognized young cows in the Empire State. A local Champion and crowd favorite throughout this show season, the senior 3-year-old Gillette Windbrook-ETS daughter was named Senior & Grand Champion at the New York State Fair Youth Show on August 25 in Syracuse. She was pictured after the show by Lea Jordan.

From the Editor To those who are reading our October New York Holstein News at World Dairy Expo, thank you for picking up a copy of our publication and I hope you enjoy the passion and commitment of our New York breeders reflected in these pages. From the greatest show cattle to breed-leading genomics, from deep cow families to premier Red & Whites, the “Cradle of the Breed” still has much to offer every facet of the Registered Holstein industry. This issue of the News is filled with show reports from local events to state-wide competitions. Congratulations to all who MICHAEL McCAFFREY participated in shows this year and to all those who continue to exhibit throughout the fall, the best of luck. Thanks for making New York proud! Executive Manager Kelly Reynolds and I attended a good number of shows this season and the hard work, dedication, and camaraderie at each event was terrific. I was especially impressed with our junior members who learn the values of hard work, perseverance, sportsmanship, and how to win (or lose) gracefully. The smiles on their faces and the laughter through the barns give us all reason to be very confident about the future of New York Holstein. In this issue there are also a number of sales advertised, from herd dispersals to consignment sales, both local and state. The opportunities to weave in new genetics and incorporate a new cow family are astounding. I always enjoy visiting with seasoned Holstein breeders and how many of those conversations quickly turn to a discussion of that cow that changed the direction or make up of a herd. Maybe the old adage that “there’s always room for a good one” can be an approach to take this fall as a deep-pedigreed cow or heifer catches your eye. Perhaps a highgenomic calf from a family that consistently throws the high ones is your next path. Sometimes when we dare take a chance, amazing things happen. But if we never take a chance, nothing happens. Have a great month of October, blessed with an abundant, safe harvest. Thanks for reading our magazine and you can find it online every month or receive it by subscription. And please visit our website and our New York Holstein Association Facebook page for the latest happenings and news around the Empire State.

It’s once in a lifetime … We could own a cow like Lea!

SPRING-FED LOGAN LEA (EX-94 EEEEE) Sept. 20, 2006 – May 20, 2017 - Grand Champion Premier National Jr. Holstein Show - Grand Champion NY Spring Dairy Carousel Jr. Show - Grand Champion NY International Spring Carousel Show – Jr. Div. - 6x Grand Champion Delaware Co. Jr. Holstein Show - 4x Grand Champion Delaware Co. Holstein Show

Anyone who knows what Lea meant to our family understands we said a very difficult goodbye this year. Although her accomplishments and success in the ring gave our family memories to last a lifetime, it is her gentleness and personality that will be missed most. We trusted her in a way that almost defied the relationship of human and beast. Her gentle squeeze and human-like hugs will never be matched. Lea was one of our biggest gifts and touched the lives of so many.

Executive Manager’s

Report Hello Holstein Enthusiasts,

With October upon us a few things come to mind- World Dairy Expo, 2017 corn harvest, and cooler weather. If you are picking up a copy of the New York Holstein News in Madison, Wisconsin at the World Dairy Expo welcome to a glimpse of life in the New York Holstein Industry and thank you to our friends at Cowsmopolitan Magazine for allowing us to have magazines in the booth this year. Good luck to all of the New York Holstein members exhibiting cattle this year at World Dairy Expo. We had a great showing at the Northeast Fall National Show and the Eastern Fall National Show, congratulations to New York exhibitors! Juniors and Junior Advisors, with fall comes Dairy Bowl practices, DJM book preparations, speech writing and Convention planning! There are a few changes to some of the contests this year, so please feel free to call or email me with any questions. DJM Contest-There is a new due date for the DJM contest books. DJM books are due November 10th this year. Hopefully the extended deadline will be helpful for those of you attending National FFA Convention and allow you to get your books in on time and completed to the best of your ability. New age divisions-We reformatted the age divisions in the DJM Contest. The new divisions are 10 & Under, 11-13, 14-16, and 17 & Up. The younger divisions have been combined. Our hope for this combination was not to make it more difficult for youth but to strengthen the age divisions, streamline some of the judging, and keep youth on track to have their books compete at a national level. As with everything we are just trying this out, if it seems like it doesn’t work and is a detriment to the youth we will change it back to the old format. Questions and applications have been sent out to Junior Advisors and past DJM applicants. The forms are also available on the website and the 14-16 & 17 & Up forms will still follow the National YDJM and DJM form. Dairy Bowl Contest- After the advisor meeting at convention last year it was suggested for the Dairy Bowl contest to follow national rules for both the junior and senior divisions of Dairy Bowl. Coaches were concerned that NY Junior Dairy Bowl teams were at a disadvantage when they got to the national contest because we do not deduct points in the toss up round of Dairy Bowl. The change is that both in the junior and senior divisions points will be deducted if a wrong answer is given in the toss up round. The novice division will be for 1st KELLY REYNOLDS

10 - NYN October 2017

year youth and youth 10 and under that do not want to compete on a junior team. The novice division will follow the current junior Dairy Bowl rules, if you buzz in in the toss up round and get an incorrect answer points will not be deducted. If you do have youth that are younger than 10 and want to compete on the junior team that is fine, it is a coach’s and youth’s choice. Dairy Bowl entry forms will be on the website and sent out with the contest convention packet. Also new this year, please send your county’s Dairy Bowl questions directly to the Dairy Bowl Chairperson, Tracy Rudgers so he can use those questions when writing the contest. His email is rudgerstracy@gmail.com. Something new we have been working on this summer and fall is how New York Holstein Association handles sponsorship. In your membership mailing there will be a letter and a form explaining the new format. If you have sponsored something in the past you will also receive a sponsorship summary. In an effort to streamline sponsorship we are hoping that this new format will suit our breeders and corporate sponsors. The corporate sponsor form will also be included in your membership mailing. If you know of any companies that would be interested in being a sponsor for NY Holstein events, activities, or awards feel free to pass it along. Let us know in the office if you have any questions or comments on how we can make this better. Sponsorship is essential for events such as Convention, Spring Dairy Carousel, State Fair, and other events. Thank you to all of our many sponsors and do not forget to do business with companies that sponsor our events. Master Breeder Award Forms and Young Breeder Award forms are available on the website. Please consider nominating Holstein breeders in your area for these prestigious awards. We have so many qualified people in New York to receive recognition for their breeding and management programs. If you need help filling out the form let me know, I can help to find out information on the breeder’s herd you’d like to nominate. Forms can also be mailed to you if you’d like, just let us know! We have a tremendous lineup coming together for the Harvest Sale. Make plans to attend Cornell Livestock Pavilion on November 4th, 2017. Once again, we will be working with the Cornell Dairy Science Club to put on a fantastic sale. We have some deep pedigreed consignments and high genomic individuals for the sale so far. If you have something you’d like to consign please let me know as soon as possible. It is sure to be a great sale again this year and a New York Holstein Event you do not want to miss! New York Holstein has some great events planned for the fall, between the bus trip to Maine, the Harvest Sale, award form applications, and more. If you’d like to get involved with any aspect of New York Holstein give me a call or send me an email! We have room on all of our committees for fresh ideas and faces and would love to have more members be a part of the New York Holstein Team. Until next time, Kelly


We Hope You Will Join Us... For the Wall Street 10th Anniversary Sale, Saturday, October 21, 11:00 A.M., at the Farm It is with pride that we will offer 115 of our best Holsteins, Swiss, Ayrshires, and Milking Shorthorns in our 10th anniversary sale. We have always had a passion for high type and deep maternal lines, and we have made it our work to build on strong cow families in the quest of the next generation surpassing those previous. By using the best bulls available, we have built a herd that we are very proud of and will offer you the opportunity to start your own chapter with these families. The young cows, heifers, and calves we will sell represent our best and we are conident that whether you are looking for an outstanding show winner, cow family to build upon, or a deep-pedigreed Red & White, you will ind what you are looking for here. Many of the families that we have worked with represent generations of breeders’ lives and hard work. The purchase of the Spring-Fed herd helped us continue their deep families and gave us more members of the Spring-Fed Shark Attack (4E-93) family that has been so successful for us. Also offered on sale day will be members of the Supreme (2E-91), Bell Ginny (VG-86 GMD-DOM), Jet Crystal (EX-4E), Atwood June (EX-90), Rosa (EX-90), Sugar-Red (2E-91), Redman Flip-Red (VG-87) and Allie (2E-90) families plus many others. We will offer Juniors, 4-H members, and FFA members a discount on anything they purchase, in addition to free trucking within 30 miles of the farm. The herd will be re-scored in late September and updated scores will be in the catalog. Please check our website and Facebook pages regularly for updates and see our sale ad on pages 30-31 of this issue of the News and our September News ad for more details on animals selling. We truly believe that the cattle we will offer are “the right kind,” to build upon. It has been our pleasure these last 10 years to form friendships with so many wonderful people. We hope you will celebrate with us on October 21 and take home some “Wall Street” genetics to build your future upon.

New York-Bred “Mogul” Sales Exceed A Million Units Select Sires, Plain City, OH has announced that 7HO11314 Mountield SSI Dcy Mogul-ET (EX93-GM) has exceeded one million units in sales at seven years of age. This milestone marks the tenth sire in Select Sires’ history to reach this milestone following 7HO9222 Shot, 7HO8081 Planet, 7HO8165 Million, 7HO7466 Moscow, MOUNTFIELD SSI DCY MOGUL-ET (EX-93-GM) 7HO6417 O Man, 7HO5708 Blitz, 7HO4213 Integrity, 7HO3707 Mathie*CV, and 7HO1236 Mandingo. Bred by Mountield Farms, Roger and Phil Marshield, Marcellus, NY, Mogul was purchased by Select Sires Inc., as an embryo and went through the Aggressive Reproductive TechnologiesTM (ARTTM) program. “Skeptics were quickly shown the value of genomic testing, and Mogul was a serious example of the power genomics could give to us,” says Jeff Ziegler, genomics program manager at Select Sires. “Never in our wildest dreams could we have imagined that Mogul would be the No. 1 sire in the world one day,” says the Marshield family! “Although, we did realize early on that Mogul’s dam, Mountield Marsh Maxine-ET (VG-88-EX-MS-DOM), was an extraordinary cow that had that rare ability to transmit her extreme genetics no matter what bull is used. Before the science was available to prove it, we knew that her bulls seemed to transmit higher genetic traits than her heifer offspring. It’s really not a surprise to us that Mogul has sired so many hot genomic sons.” Touted as ‘the total package,’ Mogul debuted as the second highest ranking young sire in the breed in December 2011 with a genomic proof of +1,469M, +87F, +52P and +3.55T. Three years later, Mogul appeared at the number one spot on the TPI® list. His irst daughter-backed summary illustrated that he delivers the best combination of top Net Merit (NM$), Combined Fat and Protein (CFP), Cheese Merit (CM$) and Feet and Leg Composite (FLC) in the Select Sires lineup. Today, Mogul is known as a sire that has created customer success around the globe. “His ability to dominate a mating, regardless of the type of cow he is used on, has been shown by very few sires in Holstein history,” says Rick VerBeek, sire analyst for Select Sires. “He is referred to as the modern day 7HO58 Elevation because of that consistent dominance, and his sons and soon to be grandsons that are dominating genetic ranking lists around the globe.” Criticized for siring ‘fat bred heifers,’ Mogul’s daughters quickly turned heads, calving in with extraordinary udders and feet and legs, with great milking ability and reproductive performance that made them standouts in the herd. “Now, the number of extremely high-scored young Mogul daughters in some of the very best genetic herds in the world show that his dominance will continue for some time,” states Ziegler. With the August 2017 sire summary, Mogul continues to transmit outstanding balance: +2504GTPI, +1,220M, +119CFP, +2.22T, +3.08UDC, +2.35FLC, and +4.1PL.

Hello Juniors! Happy October! I hope everyone is enjoying school so far this year! I can say that the adjustment back is always a rough one at first, but I can say that I am glad to be back and learning new things and seeing my friends again. I am also a big fan of all of the fresh apples and Allison Herrick apple cider! Sadly, this means that winter is getting closer, but the last few warm days of fall are my favorite. Fall is very busy with all of the back to school events, harvest time, and end of the year shows. However, take a step back and soak in the beauty of the season and the end of the warm days before winter comes! On another note, congratulations to everyone during the State Fair! I was happy to interact with a lot of you, and I also had a great time. For my first time showing at the State Fair, I was so happy with how I did in the open show, and was thrilled to be able to have that experience. I was extremely nervous to show up there, but I am so glad that I did. It truly opened my eyes to the community that we have within the dairy industry, and how willing people are to help others and teach them different things. There were many amazing animals at the show, so once again congratulations to everyone on your successes. It is because of all of you that the shows are fun, so continue to be amazing and to love what you do! Also, good luck to everyone who is continuing to show this fall. Some of you may be travelling out to the World Dairy Expo, or other shows, so good luck to

everyone! I hope you all have safe travels and gain a lot of experience and learn a lot as you go to shows. Also, good luck to those who have made a national team for judging, dairy bowl, or anything else. Make the most of your travels and contests, they definitely had an impact on me. I was able to travel, watch national shows, and meet some amazing people. Make the most of those experiences, and if you don’t participate in contests like those, take the opportunity! I was terrified of giving reasons and dairy judging, but it was honestly one of the best things I ever did. Keep a look out for sales this fall, and any other events that will be happening! Keep doing well in school, and making the most of it! For this school year, I challenge all of you to try something new or do something that brings you out of your comfort zone. It can be trying a new sport, joining a new club, or even making a new friend! Make the most of this new school year, and all of the opportunities it gives you. Good luck to everyone who is participating in school sports as well, hopefully you have a good season! Have a Happy Halloween, and I will see you next month!!

New YorK STATe FAir

Youth Show Strong participation and highcaliber competition were the hallmarks of the New York State Fair Youth Holstein Show on August 25 in Syracuse. Tyler Reynolds, Corfu, NY had the honor of lining up the classes which totaled 70 head of calves and heifers and 34 cows, significantly larger than a year ago. Judge Reynolds established his pattern for sharp, clean-cut individuals with outstanding feet and legs and overall capacity and the large crowd of fairgoers, family, and friends appreciated his efficiency and detailed reasons. With his first and second-place finishers before him, Reynolds called four head together in contention for Junior Champion: the winning spring calf, the firstprize summer yearling, the blueribbon spring yearling, and the firstplace winter yearling. “These four can handle the most competition. They have style, balance to their frame, and are my kind,” Reynolds stated. For his Junior Champion, he tapped Vailwood Drmn Sigrid, the Val-Bisson Doorman spring yearling exhibited by Allison Galton, Nunda, NY. In class, the judge called her “a handy winner,” admiring her style, balance, and femininity. She was followed for Reserve Junior Champion by the winning summer yearling heifer, Ranway Meridian Wowshesgood, the Sully Hart Meridian daughter exhibited by Adam Schultz, Marion, NY. While Reynolds noted that the winning summer yearling was not the biggest heifer in her class, “I believe she’s the best,” he noted, praising her cleanliness all the way through and being flatter in her bone than her competition. The spring calf, ZBW M Latasha Sol-ET, exhibited by Mason Ziemba, Durhamville,

NY, took Honorable Mention. Terrific quality continued in the milking classes and for his Senior & eventual Grand Champions, Reynolds extracted four cows from the rest: the first and second-place junior 3-year-olds, the winning senior 3-year-old, and the first-place 4-yearold. Noting that each member of the quartet was extremely dairy, with a beautiful mammary system and very correct feet & legs, Reynolds chose the senior 3-year-old of Jacob Menzi, Millport, NY as his Senior Champion, Lantland Windbrook Hysteria. Sired by Gillette Windbrook-ETS, Reynolds lauded this veteran show winner for her balance, style, and udder, noting “it is hard to find a fault in her!” Selected as the Reserve Senior & Reserve Grand Champion was the big, powerful 4-year-old from Emily Mikel, Stafford, NY, Mikelholm Windbrook Rory-ET. Though she had been milking over a year, her size, scale, and correctness took her to the winner’s circle easily. Of note, both the Senior & Reserve Senior Champions were class winners a year ago, with the Reserve repeating that recognition as well. Chosen for the Honorable Mention spot was Eildon-Tweed Tango Fort, the winning junior 3-year-old from Blake Wasdworth, Ballston Lake, NY. Wayne County took the Junior County herd award, while Chemung County took the Senior County herd award home with them.

New York State Fair

Red & White Show In a show that gains in depth and popularity each year, the New York State Fair Red & White Show held August 26 again drew outstanding entrants and a big ringside crowd before Judge Patsy Gifford, Groton, NY. Many of those competing had fared well on the local level and came to State Fair with impressive wins to date. No doubt, many of those shown will continue on throughout the fall at the national level. Forty-three calves and heifers went head-to-head in the junioraged classes, and for her Junior Champions, Gifford pulled three head for consideration: the winning winter calf, the first-place fall calf, and the first-prize spring yearling. “Each of these three animals was outstanding in their class. But one animal, part for part, has that correctness all the way through,” Gifford stated as she named the winning fall calf, Ms-AOL DBack Raelynn-Red-ET, her Junior Champion. An eye-

catching daughter of Mr D Apple Diamondback, she was exhibited by Olivia Gaulin, Argyle, NY. For Reserve Junior Champion, Gifford chose the first-place spring yearling heifer, Lylehaven M CinnamonRed-ET, a daughter of Mr Apples McGucci-ET, owned by Al & Jo Merrill, Fayette, NY. A deep, wide heifer, the judge admired how she held herself together in place and on the move. While cow numbers did not match their younger counterparts, high-quality entries with beautiful udders could be found in every class. For Senior Champion, Gifford extracted three of her first-place winners: the senior 3-year-old, the aged cow, and the 125,000-lb. cow. “Such ring presence!” Gifford stated as she named Rosedale Lucky Rose-Red, the aged cow from Oakfield Corners Dairy, Oakfield, NY, Senior & Grand Champion. A daughter of Rainyridge Perseus, the stunning, chiseled aged cow was making her show ring debut in the

Empire State, adding to her already impressive resume. Her advantage in mammary system took her over the beautifully-balanced production cow, Long-Brook RL Sweeti PiRed, the Fradon Redliner-Red-ET daughter shown by Marshman Farms & Hembury Farms. The Grand Champion at this past April’s New York Spring Red & White Show, she was followed another Marshman Farms’ entry, Tiger-Lily Absol LaraRed, Best Bred & Owned winner for Lily Marshman. Among the junior-exhibited animals, it was Emily Mikel’s 4-yearold who went all the way to Senior & Grand Champion. Sired by CSRedvue Classic-Red-ETS, the classwinning cow used her advantage in size & scale to place over the Reserve Senior & Reserve Grand Champion, Suzies Ladd SearfinaRed-ET, the fancy-uddered Ladd P daughter exhibited by Kirt Menzi, Jr. Selected as Junior Champion of the youth-exhibited animals was the chiseled, feminine fall calf, FourHills Av Sisi64392-Red, a daughter of Dymentholm Mr App AvalancheTw shown by Mason Ziemba and Britney Hill. Wearing the Reserve Junior Champion rosette was the big, strong, wide-framed winter yearling heifer of Joseph Thomsen’s, Del-Frie-Acres Ad Ruthie-Red. Ovaltop Holsteins, the Wolfe Family, of Richfield Springs, NY, received the coveted Premier Breeder banner, while Marshman Farms, the Marshman Family of Tiger-Lily Holsteins, took home the Premier Exhibitor award.

New York State Fair Holstein Show Exhibitors from across the Empire State came together in Syracuse for the New York State Fair Open Holstein Show Sunday, August 27 before Judge Chris Hill, Thurmont, MD. A total of 170 head (one less than a year ago) competed, including 98 calves and heifers and 72 milking-age animals. Judge Hill, widely known in dairy cattle circles for his own show cattle, sales involvement, and judging, brought his throughtful, efficient style to the task at hand before a good ringside crowd in the grand Coliseum at the fairgrounds. Interestingly, the State Fair broke an all-time attendance record the day of the Holstein show, with over 123,000 people passing through the turnstiles. Judge Hill established his pattern from the start, requiring correctness over size, sweeping, open ribs, easy movement, and angular, dairy form. Many of the state’s strongest competitors were found in the Salt City on show day, beginning this show season last April at the New York Spring Dairy Carousel and continuing throughout the

summer at local and district shows. Undoubtedly many will continue on to the National Shows throughout the fall. Also seen in the ring were past alumnae of the All-New York, Junior All-New York, All-American, & Junior All-American Contests, many of which will compete again during this year’s competitions.

JUNIOR CHAMPIONS Beautiful calf and heifer classes circled before Judge Hill all morning and assembling his first and secondplace winners, he ultimately pulled six individuals in contention for the Junior Champion rosettes. “This is pretty cool!” he began as he looked upon the first place spring calf, the first and second winter calves, the winning summer yearling, and the top two spring yearlings. “These are six awesome heifers and this show rocks! These six exemplify what I am looking for to go on to the next level. This has been a great, great heifer show and I love the open, sweeping ribs, the long necks, and I don’t care how big they are, they’ve got to be good!” Ultimately

Hill looked to his first-prize spring yearling, Reyncrest Corvette Gracie, bred & owned by Reyncrest Farms Inc., Corfu, NY, as his Junior Champion. Hill praised the winner, sired by Sonnek GC Corvette-ET, for her great width through the muzzle, chest, and rump. For his Reserve Junior Champion, Hill tapped the winning winter calf, Oakfield Byway Taxi-ET, a full-age Oh-River-Syc Byway-ET daughter owned by Abe Light and Prinse Farms Ltd. Lauded in class for the way she tracked on her rear legs and wide pin setting, she was followed by Oakfield Corners Dairy’s blue-ribbon summer yearling, Budjon-Vail Drmn Zanetta-ET, a well-balanced ValBisson Doorman-ET daughter who has had a very successful show season to date.

INTERMEDIATE CHAMPIONS Spectacular young cows started off the second half of the show and for consideration for his Intermediate Champions, Judge Hill singled out four of his favorites: the winning junior 2-year-old, the first and second-place senior 2-yearolds, and the first-prize junior 3-year-old. “This young cow show has been fantastic,” Hill began. “We have all different sizes and shapes out here.” In the end, it was the junior 2-year-old from Jonathan & Alicia Lamb, Oakfield, NY, that took the top honors, Oakfield WB Tiffany-ET, a daughter of Gillette Windbrook-ETS, that Hill said “has the best udder out here, great feet & legs, and is level from hips to pins.” In the Reserve spot was the winning senior 2-year-old, Elm-V-F Braxton Sapphire, the big, longbodied Regancrest S Braxton-ET daughter owned by Kelsey Warriner, Andover, NY. When describing the pair of senior 2-year-olds, Hill called


them “as different as night and day” but followed with his second-place individual, Budjon-Vail HZ LaceyRed, ET, a beautifully-uddered StJacob Destry Heztry-ET daughter, owned by Cooper Galton.

SENIOR CHAMPIONS The quality continued in the older cow classes, not as sizeable but equally as competitive. After careful consideration of his first and second-prize individuals, Hill singled out the winning 4-year-old, the first and second aged cows, and the blue-ribbon production cow for his Senior Champion contenders. “It is just my opinion, but I am pretty happy with these four cows,” he stated. For his Senior Champion, Hill chose the 4-year-old, OCD Bradnick Candy-ET, a daughter of RegancrestGV S Bradnick-ET bred & owned by Oakfield Corners Dairy, Oakfield, NY as his Senior Champion. Noting that the big, long, deep, Best Udder winner overpowered her class, Hill followed with another crowd favorite, the first-place aged cow, Liddleholme Resur Lu-Red-ET owned by Anthony Liddle, Argyle, NY, as Reserve Senior Champion. So well-preserved at nearly nine years of age and having had six calves, she placed over Mor-Yet Goldwyn Faithful-ET, the Braedale Goldwyn daughter owned by Cooper Galton and Chase & Connor Savage who was named Honorable Mention.

THE CHAMPIONS & THE PREMIERS At the end of the show, with his six Champions in front of him, Judge Hill was generous in his praise of the caliber of cattle presented to him and thanked the New York State Fair and the breeders and exhibitors for a great show. Judge Hill stayed with “maturity” for his Grand selections. Chosen to take home the Grand Champion banner was the Senior Champion, praised by Hill for her beautiful uphill run and breed character. Hill stayed with his Senior Champions as the Reserve Grand Champion and the Honorable Mention. The three cows together were a beautiful trio and no doubt will continue to represent New York State and their exhibitors well this fall. Of note, the Grand Champion was also the Reserve

INTERMEDIATE CHAMPIONS From left: Cooper Galton with the Honorable Mention Intermediate Champion, Budjon-Jail Hz Lacey-Red-ET; Kelsey Warriner holding her Reserve Intermediate Champion, Elm-V-F Braxton Sapphire; and Joe Nash with the Intermediate Champion, Oakfield WB Tiffany-ET.

Grand Champion at this spring’s New York International Spring Holstein Show and the Reserve Champion was also Reserve Grand Champion here a year ago. After a very strong day of several winners and high-finishers, Reyncrest Farms, the Reynolds family, took home the Premier Breeder banner. Repeating as Premier Exhibitor again this year was the Lundy family from Luncrest Farm, Granville, NY, whose impressive string of cows stood near the top in each of their classes.

THE JUNIOR WINNERS Youth-owned cattle have done exceptionally well all show season, and State Fair exhibition reflected that well. Senior & Grand Champion of the youth division went to the winning 150,000-Lb. Cow, MorYet Goldwyn Faithful-ET, called to this honor “handily” by Judge Hill, praised for her beautiful udder and for having stood the test of time so well. In the Reserve spot was Kelsey Warriner’s winning senior 2-yearold who had been Intermediate Champion of the youth show earlier and Reserve Intermediate Champion of the Open Show. Honorable Mention Grand Champion for the youth also went to Cooper Galton with his tall, long senior 2-yearold, Budjon-Vail Hz Lacey-Red-ET, another Heztry daughter, whose competition in class with the winner

was called “a real dog fight at the top!” Reserve Senior Champion for the youth-owned cows went to Blake Wadsworth, Ballston Lake, NY, with his high-finishing 4-yearold, Eildon-Tweed ChameleonET, a fancy-uddered daughter of Mountfield SSI Dcy Mogul-ET. Repeating her Junior Championship from two days prior in the State Fair Youth (4-H) show was Vailwood Drmn Sigrid, the well-balanced, deep-bodied spring yearling sired by Val-Bisson Doorman-ET, exhibited by Allison Galton, Nunda, NY. She was followed by the spring calf owned by Mason Ziemba, Durhamville, NY, ZBW M Latasha Sol, a nicelybalanced Walnutlawn Solomon-ET daughter. In the Honorable Mention spot was Cooper Galton with his homebred fall yearling, Roll-N-View Def Celine-ET, a tall, long Scientific B Defiant-ET daughter who has enjoyed considerable success in the past.

FUTURITY AND NOTES New York Holstein’s Futurity #41 saw 11 beautiful 2-year-olds compete for a purse of well over $1000.

Out and About in Tri-County Liddleholme

Truly one of the great breeding establishments in Washington County, and all of New York State for that matter, is Liddleholme in Argyle, owned by the Liddle family - Adam, Nicole, Anthony, Brock, and Hailee. With a BAA of 112.9 on 58 cows, Liddleholme stands 5th on New York’s high BAA list and the cows here reflect that every day of the week. Cow care here is the priority, but it’s downto-earth. The cows stand in large tie stalls, are on pasture nights, and are fed a largely forage diet. Development and longevity are important and when you hear the pedigrees, stall after stall, you understand why Liddles enjoy the thrill of building on what they have. Many of the Breed’s greatest cow families are represented here: Roxy, Lulu, Apple, Ashlyn, and Tony Beauty to name just a few, and it’s enjoyable to see how well the cows match their pedigrees. She had only been home 12 hours after her successful trip to Harrisburg, PA, but Liddleholme Resur Lu-RedET (EX-95) looked terrific and right at ease. She is having a storybook year in the show ring this year and the day before our visit, Lu had been named Senior & Grand Champion at the Eastern National Holstein Show and was the Supreme Best Bred & Owned winner as well. That got her a nice ride back to Argyle in a brand-new 24-foot trailer that Liddles will have use of for a year! Lu is an amazing cow and has an enthusiastic following wherever she goes. She has had six calves and is pregnant with her 7th by Army. She has four frozen Avalanche embryos as well which should be a great mating on this balanced, super-uddered cow. When asked how the mating to Carrousel Resurrect-Red-ET (Talent x show star Renita Ranger) that produced Lu came about, Anthony Liddle says they chose Resurrect because he was a maternal brother to Regiment-Red, the sire of the 96-point Apple. Lu is a 6th generation Excellent in the Tora

38 - NYN October 2017

Anthony, Brock and Adam Liddle with Liddleholme Resur Lu-Red-ET (EX-95).

Triple Threat Lulu (EX-96 GMD-DOM) family and has an EX-93 Goldwyn sister here as well. This year alone, Lu has been Grand Champion and Best Bred & Owned of Show at the Central New York Holstein Show, Grand Champion at the Tri-County Holstein Show, and Reserve Grand Champion at the New York State Fair. She is a crowd favorite wherever she goes and the fact that she is homebred makes it all that much sweeter. Interestingly, Liddles used Resurrect but ended up with only two daughters – Lu and Liddleholme Roxbury-Red-ET (EX91), owned & shown by the Kings of Midas Touch Genetics and sold later to WI. Her dam was a VG-88 Advent that went through Liddles’ 2008 sale for $45,000, followed by five generations of EX “Roxy’s.” Next to Lu in the barn is Liddleholme Mariah (EX-94), a Patience Sholine Contender-Red-ET that goes back to Hillcroft Leader Melanie (EX96). Mariah was 1st aged cow at TriCounty this year and Reserve Grand Champion to Lu. Down the row is Co-Vale Fever Camila-ET (EX-92), so successful as an undefeated summer yearling in 2012 and from the same cow family as Curr-Vale Goldwyn Emelyn-ET (EX-93) who was so successful on the tanbark for Anthony a few years back. There are a number of up-andcoming young cows here and Adam’s favorite is Ernest-Anthony ArthaET (VG-89, 2y), a Windbrook from Arethusa Fever Almira-ET (EX-94)

in the Tri-Day Ashlyn-ET (2E-96 GMD-DOM) family. Tall, long, with a beautiful uphill run and an udder that was all folds after milking, she also has a Pine-Tree Sid-ET sister due this winter. Another outstanding Windbrook is Elm-Spring Wbk Innovator-ET (VG-86, 2y), owned with Josh Boyden. Purchased at the Elm-Spring Farm Picnic Sale, she is a potential 7th generation Excellent out of Elm-Spring Morty Mitzi (2E-94) from Integrity Inez (4E-94). Innovator has two Beemer daughters and is bred to Army. There is so much to take in at Liddleholme and the passion that Adam and his family have for great cattle is apparent. Sons Anthony and Brock stayed with us the entire visit and they have learned much from their father, grandfather Bill Liddle, and the many people they have encountered through their showing and fitting careers. And while many people associate Adam Liddle as a very talented judge, it’s apparent walking around the barn, visiting about cows and cow families, that he is most at home here, in his barn, surrounded by his family and his cattle. But a renowned judge he is and this year, Adam will officiate over the greatest Holstein exhibition in the United States, the International Holstein Show at World Dairy Expo. It is an honor and a thrill, not only for him, but his family and for the New York Holstein fraternity. A sizeable contingency of family and friends is traveling to Madison with him and that will be an exciting time for everyone. I was very curious to see how Adam got his start in showing and judging and like many people, it began with the county fair as a kid. “The fair was the highlight of our lives!” Adam says with a smile. He began judging as a youth as well and judged in the 4-H competition at State Fair, placing very well. He qualified to go to Harrisburg but was too young! Adam was asked to judge his first show – the Columbia County Fair 4-H Show in Chatham -


by Roy Denniston. They all remember that show. Anthony was not even a teenager yet, but he stayed home and did the chores. In the years that have transpired, Adam’s judging career has been a full and fulfilling one, taking him all over New York and the United States. When asked what he might say to young people interested in judging, Adam has some very sound thoughts: “You have to be raised with confidence. Parents should teach their kids to do what they think is right.” How easily those words can be applied to the show ring! Adam also says that starting with PCDA judging conferences is a good beginning, since it helps with reasons, how to handle the ring, and provides many other practical skills. But confidence in oneself and how to back up your placings is key. Son Brock judged his first show this year at the Dutchess County Fair, so the torch is being passed. On October 6 and 7, all eyes will be on the colored shavings in Madison, WI as Adam officiates over the Holstein show, with Carl Phoenix as his associate. They will be memorable days for everyone and the New York Holstein membership is proud of Adam and his contribution to the Registered Holstein business. Be it in the show ring or in his work clothes surrounded by his cows, Adam Liddle is the first to say that he got where he is today by the people he surrounded himself with, at PamTom Farm as a youth, Ridgedale Farm for 5 ½ years as a younger man, his fellow Tri-County members, and so many others he has met along the way. These relationships and people like the Liddles are why the Holstein business is truly the greatest fraternity of people in the world.

Ms-AOL Holsteins Their prefix has been appearing everywhere this year! Watch the shows – Open or Red & White – and a “Ms-AOL-bred” calf, heifer, or cow is likely to be standing at the top of her class. Lucy Stockwell and Jason Tooley are the folks behind Ms-AOL and their story epitomizes how much one cow can shape the direction of one’s life and herd. Lucy has always been interested in showing and used the AOL prefix for her own breeding. The letters are from

the first initials of her grandparents, plus her own “L.” Jason is the fourth generation in his family to farm in Granville, NY and today’s herd of 150 cows is predominantly Holsteins, though there are still 17 Guernsey cows, the breed who formed much of the history of “Toolite Farm.” Toolite is a 560-acre farm with about 180 tillable acres, with more crop land rented. Jason is proud of just how productive this land is here. Today’s milking herd averages 24,500 lbs. of milk with 4.1%f 3.1%p. The herd carries an enviable calving interval of 12.4 months and the philosophy here is that young cows are allowed to grow and mature into good older cows. “We don’t push our 2-yearolds,” Jason notes, indicating how much he and his family appreciate longevity in their herd. The story of “Ms-AOL Holsteins” began with Lucy making a trip to Canada and seeing many outstanding Red & Whites. Ultimately she found a calf she was interested in back in the States, owned by Jason and Jordan Thomas, that would complete nine generations of Excellent “Roxy’s.” Lucy bought Miss Roxys RecoveryRed, born September 2010, and with that, she and Jason were in the Red & White business! Sired by Hvezda, Recovery came with what many might call a hefty price tag, but what an investment she has turned out to be. Lucy and Jason showed her and she was Nominated All-American as a Red & White Milking Yearling. But the real value of Recovery, whose best record is 4-06 2x 305 28,650 4.2 1211 2.9 838, has been through the genetics she transmits. Jason and Lucy have flushed Recovery to seven different bulls and the offspring have not only been successfully marketed and shown by them but also by those who have tapped into this incredible family. Recovery has 33 registered offspring to date sired by ContenderRed, Ducati-Red, Absolute-Red, Armani *RC, Barbwire-Red, and Diamondback *RC. She has two Excellent Contender-Red daughters that have shown very well including Ms-AOL Contdr Revive-Red-ET (EX92, 92-MS) who was Intermediate Champion at the 2017 New York Spring Red & White Show in April. At this year’s Big E Eastern States Red & White Show, all three Junior Champions carried the Ms-AOL prefix!! Ms AOL Dback Raelynn-Red

Lucy Stockwell and Jason Tooley with Miss Roxys Recovery-Red-ET (2E-92)

was Junior Champion after winning the same title at the New York State Fair Red & White Show in August for Olivia Gaulin and Anthony Liddle. Ms-AOL DB Raspberry-Red-ET, her full sister by Diamondback, was 2nd fall calf & Reserve Junior Champion in Springfield for Jadyn Kimball of ME. And Ms-AOL C RightawayRed-ET, the winning March calf, by Contender-Red, was the Honorable Mention Junior Champion for Jadyn & Kennedy Kimball. Recovery has certainly put Jason & Lucy on the map and they smile as they recall selling show cattle before, during, and after shows! Demand for Recovery daughters has been tremendous and this true-transmitting cow is a perfect example of how lifechanging one cow and her offspring can be for a breeder. She has helped to fuel a real enthusiasm for Red & Whites and Registered Holsteins for both Lucy and Jason. Today’s herd on the farm is now scored every seven months and further interest in building the genetics and pedigree depth of the herd is keen. Anyone who is looking for their next show winner should make Ms-AOL genetics a priority. An added bonus here is to see the impressive heifer barn that was built about eight years ago and makes a terrific place to keep heifers and dry cows. In addition, the old tie stall barn at Toolite Farms is still used for younger calves and has three boxstalls for cows like Recovery. But it is the passion to breed the next show winner and the day-to-day care they receive that makes this place and the enthusiastic breeders behind it a great stop when in Washington County.

The Tri-County Holstein Show

TRI-COUNTY From page 39

Anyone who has ever been to Schaghticoke in July for the TriCounty Holstein Show knows what a tremendous event it is. Under the direction of Show Chairman Dave Holck, this show has a reputation for top-notch cattle year after year. Dave has been show chair for about 10 years and is the first to say that the show’s success and reputation have come from the efforts of a great team of people. Dave, whose roots are in Oneida County, is in a rather unique position in that he does not own any cattle of his own, yet he remains interested in the show and its success. Cattle from the Tri-County show often go on to state and national competition. Here are a few aspects of this show that make it “flow” … things that may be helpful for other clubs in administering their own local shows: 1. Dave is the show chairman and there is a nine-member show committee that meets three times per year. The committee suggests judges as well as reviews what

went well, possible changes, and how to improve. There is also a separate person for the impressive show book that is compiled, full of ads from commercial companies and breeders alike. Regular correspondence through emails helps organize the book and raise a good amount of money for the show. The inside covers and outside back cover positions are auctioned off each year. 2. The show is held in conjunction with the Brown Swiss canton so expenses for the judge and fairgrounds are shared. One judge handles the combined showmanship and the Brown Swiss show one day, then the Holstein show the next day. 3. A picnic for both the Holstein and Brown Swiss breeders is held the evening before the Holstein Show. There is also a Silent Auction during the event that raises money. The picnic draws hundreds of people and gives folks a time to so-

cialize apart from the hectic pace of show day. 4. Entry fees are reasonable for the show, but more sizeable late-entry fees help encourage breeders to enter early, thus making the show book easier to follow on show day. 5. There are Premier Breeder & Reserve Premier Breeder banners, as well as Premier Exhibitor and Reserve Premier Exhibitor banners. Tri-County has several competitive show strings and recognizing up to four strings in this way encourages everyone. This year, only one point separated three strings! The result of all this effort and cooperation among Tri-County members is one of the greatest Empire State shows each year. While Dave Holck is a terrific show administrator, it’s all the people who work together that make it all happen in such a way that everyone enjoys their days each July in Schaghticoke.

A new format – an All-Breeds show – drew a large number of color-breed cattle, particularly Jerseys, to the AlleganySteuben Club site in Canisteo on July 13. Brian Behnke of Brooklyn, WI made the official placings in a well-enjoyed event by club members and a good ringside which weathered a couple heavy downpours during the show. Judge Behnke named his Champions of the Junior Division and when it came time for the Open Show Champions, he stayed with the same three cows, adding the winning junior 2-year-old to his pull of four head. Taking home Senior & Grand Champion rosettes was Elm-V-F Braxton Shadow, the winning 4-year-old cow for Bryce Warriner, Andover. A tall, long, angular cow in full bloom, she was followed by a very similar cow from the senior 3-year-old class, Jackson-Hill Alexis, a daughter of Ms Atlees Sht AftershockET, owned by Jade Atherton, Greenwood. In the Honorable Mention spot was the winning aged cow, Ernita Locust Rockin Ruby, with owner Priscilla Helgerson at the halter. Perhaps most remarkable about this trio was that they were each bred & owned by their junior exhibitor, an incredible feat for these young people! The Holstein Champion was also named the Supreme Champion of the Show, with the Champion Jersey, CurrVale Nevada Marley, the winning senior 3-year-old, named the Reserve Supreme Champion, for Jack & Colleen Button who also received the All-Breeds Premier Exhibitor banner.

Numbers were strong and quality was exceptional for the 17th Central New York Holstein Show July 5 in Norwich. Always an early summer highlight for show-minded New York breeders, cattle came from all over New York State to the review of Judge Jamie Black. Show founder Fred Myers works all year long to make for an enjoyable and profitable event for all who participate, with over $10,000 in cash distributed and some exceptional prizes as well. Fantastic calf and heifer classes totaling 65 head culminated with Judge Black selecting his winning spring yearling, Vailwood Drmn Sigrid, as Junior Champion. Owned by Allison Galton, Nunda, the beautiful Val-Bisson Doorman daughter possessed so much style and balance, walking on a very correct set of feet &

legs to outpace all her competitors. In the Reserve spot was another fancy Doorman daughter, Elmvue Doorman Celeste, the first-place fall calf bred & owned by Elmvue Farm, Johnstown. Judge Black was complimentary of her femininity, dairyness, and overall length of frame. Among the junior owned animals, Mason Ziemba, Durhamville, won the Junior Champion rosette with his first-place winter calf, Oakfield Door Raindrop-ET, yet another Doorman daughter that won the largest class of the day with 16 head. Reserve Junior Champion of the junior division went to another winter calf, MapleDowns D Back Paulette, a daughter of Mr D Apple Diamondback, owned and shown by Marilyn Hanley. Spectacular young cows filled the 2 & 3-year-old classes and named the show’s Intermediate Champion was the first-place & Best-Uddered senior 2-year-old, ElmV-F Braxton Sapphire, owned by Kelsey Warriner, Andover. A long, tall, deep-ribbed Regancrest S Braxton-ET daughter, she was followed by the first-place junior 2-yearold, Liddleholme All About It, a Mr Apples McGucci-ET daughter, exhibited by Derek Liddle. She too possessed the Best Udder in class and was called a handy winner with her great blending and cleanliness of hock. The sizable ringside crowd had seen impressive classes throughout the show, but the older cow classes built the show to a great crescendo. Judge Black went with his winning aged cow for his Senior & Grand Champion, Liddleholme Resur Lu-Red-ET, the stunning Carrousel Resurrect-Red-ET daughter with Anthony Liddle at the halter. No stranger to the show ring, the wellpreserved 8-year-old was on the money with her great frame, ease of movement, and spectacular udder. The Champion was also Best Bred & Owned of the show and Liddle won a year’s use of a tractor donated by Clinton Tractor, in addition to all her cash winnings.Taking the Reserve Senior &

Chemung County Holstein Show August 1, 2017 Judge: Adam Sonnen Junior Champion Lantland Airlift Linda, Kirt Menzi, Jr.

Reserve Junior Champion Busholm Air Rita Robin, Hannah Bush Senior & Grand Champion Lantland Windbrook Hysteria, Jacob Menzi Reserve Senior & Reserve Grand Champion Lantland Airlift Bow, Mallory Rhodes

Always a great show with a large ringside, the Chemung County Holstein Show held August 1 in Horseheads was dominated by the juniors, with youth taking all four Championships in both the Open & Junior Shows. Judge Adam Sonnen worked methodically and efficiently through the day, giving great reasons that were appreciated by both exhibitors and observers alike. For his Junior Champion, Sonnen chose Kirt Menzi, Jr.’s winning summer yearling, Lantland Airlift Linda, a daughter of Canyon-Breeze At Airlift-ET. In class, the judge said the stylish, straight-lined heifer “walked away with it” and she made a beautiful Junior Champion. In the Reserve spot was the fancy, very-correct first-place spring calf, Busholm Air Rita Robin, also by Airlift, and shown by Hannah Bush. For Senior & Grand Champion, Sonnen tapped Lantland Windbrook Hysteria, the stellar Gillette WindbrookETS senior 3-year-old, owned by Jacob Menzi. A balanced, very correct young cow with a great udder, she was followed by herdmate Lantland Airlift Bow, yet another Airlift daughter, owned by Mallory Rhodes. She was the winning senior 2-year-old and followed the judge’s pattern for openness of rib, front-end strength, outstanding udder, and ease of movement. The Chemung County Club gives several awards in memory of different influential club members through the years. The various laurels recognize those actively showing as well as those “behind the scenes” who make this a high-quality event every year.

It was a day for youth-owned Champions August 13 in Norwich, as Judge Aaron Eaton placed the 75 head exhibited at the Chenango County Holstein Show. Taking home the Junior Champion rosette was the winning winter yearling heifer, Del-FrieAcres Ad Ruthy-Red, a big, powerful Mr Ansly Addiction-P-Red daughter owned by Joseph Thomsen. A winner here a year ago as a winter calf and very successful on the state and national level, she has grown out beautifully and was praised by Eaton for her strength, balance, and hardness of top. Selected as Reserve Junior Champion was the first-place spring calf, Fantasy-Found Afthshk Daffy, a daughter of Mr Atlees Sht Aftershock-ET, owned by Luke Byma. These same two youth-owned and exhibited animals were Junior Champions of the Junior Show as well. Selected Intermediate & Grand Champion was the big, tall, razor-sharp Apples Absolute-Red-ET daughter owned by Lily Marshman, Tiger-Lily Absol LaraRed, the winning senior 3-year-old. She too was a winner here a year ago as a senior 2-year-old and fresh again, had matured beautifully and carries a terrific udder. She

used her overall length and frame to place over the very stylish, well-balanced winning junior 2-year-old, Evans-H Byway Jamisen, one of the first fresh daughters of Oh-RiverSyc Byway-ET, owned by Alex Evans. The Reserve Intermediate & Reserve Grand Champion is a lovely heifer on the move and interestingly, she too had returned from a blue-ribbon finish a year ago as a spring yearling. Karley Marshman took the Senior Champion rosette with her winning 5-yearold, Ms Tiger-Lily Frill-Red-ET, a long, tall, and very dairy La Presentation PicoloRed-ET daughter. For Reserve Senior Champion, Eaton tapped the first-prize 4-year-old, Silver-Spoon Epic Day, a wellbalanced Genervations Epic-ET daughter in full bloom, who later joined her maternal sister, the second-place senior 3-year-old by Seagull-Bay Diamond-ET, to win the Produce of Dam class for Silver Spoon Dairy, the Galley family. Marshman Farms had a great day overall to take both the Premier Breeder and Premier Exhibitor banners home.

Tyler Reynolds served as the official judge over the 25th Annual Cortland Classic held July 3 in Cortland. A fantastic group of Holsteins and Jerseys from all parts of Central New York convened at the fairgrounds, with a large crowd on hand to enjoy showmanship the day prior as well as the show. Taking home Junior Champion honors was Ranway Meridian Wowshesgood, the winning summer yearling sired by SullyHart Meridian owned by junior member Adam Schultz. Called a handy winner in class with her style, balance and overall size, Reynolds noted “it’s hard to find a fault with her.” She was followed for Reserve Junior Champion by the big, strong, wellblended winter yearling of Don McEvoy’s, St-Jacob Blake Angel, a daughter of Walnutlawn Blake. For his Senior Champions, Judge Reynolds pulled three head in contention: his first and second-place senior 3-yearolds and the winning 5-year-old. Returning to once again capture the Senior & eventual Grand Champion trophy after winning the same award a year ago was Ernest-Anthony Sid Treva-ET, the lovely Pine-Tree Sid-ET daughter brought out by Ranway Farms & Mike Putman. So long, so tall, and possessing a tremendous quality udder, she was followed nicely by the 3-year-old, McGarr-Farms K Dec Liberty, a very correct, stylish Mr Aftershock Declan-ET daughter bred & owned by McGarr Farms. Reynolds chose his Jersey Grand Champion as the Supreme winner on the

day, a junior 2-year-old daughter of RapidBay Indiana Gentry-ET owned by Doug Evans. Show Chair Debbie Crothers, her committee, and Cortland County Holstein Club members worked very hard to secure a huge list of sponsors and prizes for the show.

It was a day for 3-year-olds at the Lewis County Fair on July 21 before Judge Brett Roberts. For Senior & Reserve Senior Champion, Roberts pulled four head: the winning 3-year-olds, the firstprize aged cow, and the winning 125,000lb. cow. Taking the rosettes in both the Junior & Senior Shows was Headwater Airlift Charity, a tall, long, graceful Airlift daughter with owner Ethan Sherman at the halter. She was a handy winner in class and helped Eric & Lorelle Sherman and Family’s Headwater Holsteins take both the Premier Breeder & Premier Exhibitor banners. Following for Reserve Senior &


NY Show Reports Reserve Grand Champion was the winning junior 3-year-old, Ful-A-Rae Abigail-RedET, the beautifully-uddered red Apples Absolute-Red-ET daughter exhibited by Lane Hitt and Zachary Mast. Interestingly, these same two cows were switched at the Fair show just days before. Also of note, the Reserve Champion’s dam was the Reserve Champion at this show in 2016. Among the competitive calf and heifer classes, Jackson Peters’ winning winter calf took the Junior Champion prize with Roll-N-View Armni Applepie, a very correct Mr Apples Armani-ET daughter that Judge Roberts said “could take some deep competition.” In the Reserve spot was the winning winter yearling, Hittsong Anahiem Miracle, a KHW Anahiem-ET daughter bred & owned by Diesel & Katy Hitt.

All roads led to Gouverneur August 5 for the always-competitive St. Lawrence County Holstein Show, held in conjunction with the county fair. Greg McLean had the honor of lining up the large classes, filled with quality entries from not only St. Lawrence County but other North Country areas as well. Olivia Simser had the winning spring calf that went on to capture the Junior Champion award as well. Sired by ValBisson Doorman, Co-Vista Doorman 2417 had the overall size and scale to win her large, competitive class. For Reserve Junior Champion, McLean tapped the first-place winter calf, Fair-Meadow De Champane-Red, a well-balanced daughter of Scientific B Defiant-ET, owned by Loren Putman. McLean pulled six head to the center for his selection of Senior Champion: the winning junior 2-year-old, the first-place senior 2-year-old, the top senior 3-yearold, the first & second 4-year-olds, and the winning aged cow. Silky, black, and carrying a spectacular mammary system, it was Hinz-Bos Gold Chip Ariel who went all the way to Senior & Grand Champion for Jacob Coller. A daughter of Mr Chassity Gold Chip-ET, she prevailed over all her

competitors on her mammary system and overall ease of movement. Named Reserve Senior & Reserve Grand Champion was the blue-ribbon senior 2-year-old, Midas-Touch Mct Lipsynch-ET, a great-uddered De-Su Bkm McCutchen-ET daughter, owned by Jennifer King.

Extreme quality and strong competition marked each class at the Tri-County Holstein Show July 26 in Schaghticoke. Chris Kimball served as the official judge and throughout the show, outstanding entries, both junior and senior-owned, could be found, many of which were likely to go on to both state and national levels.

NY Show Reports For his Junior Champions of the open show, Judge Kimball stayed with the same two calves he had just selected in the junior division. Going all the way was the beautiful winter heifer calf, Liddleholme Reath, a daughter of Mr D Apple Diamondback, owned by Sarah Gaulin. So balanced and so correct, she was followed by the firstplace spring calf sired by Mr Brash-ET, Whitdale Brash Fairyweather, led by her owner, Grace Depew. Taking the Intermediate Champion award was the first-place junior 3-yearold, Kings-Ransom Doorman Frozen, recently-fresh and already competitive for Johnathan King. Big and powerful with a tremendous uphill run, she was followed by the winning junior 2-year-old brought out by Hailee Liddle, Liddleholme EmilyET. A daughter of Gillette Windbrook-ETS, she was praised by the judge for her depth of rib, depth of flank, and very correct mammary system. Tremendous older cow classes built a sense of excitement as the show progressed. In the 5-year-old class alone, there were three 94-point cows! Fresh off her win at the Central New York Holstein Show, winning production cow Liddleholme Resur Lu-Red-ET outpaced all her competitors to take the Senior & Grand Champion award home for Anthony Liddle. A very balanced, correct cow with a spectacular udder, she was followed by herdmate Liddleholme Mariah, the winning aged cow, owned by Hailee Liddle. Interestingly, Mariah was the Grand Champion here a year ago and Lu was the Reserve Senior Champion. Banners were well-distributed at day’s end, indicative of the quality that several of the show strings competing here possess. Premier Breeder was Liddleholme Holsteins who had the three aforementioned champions. Reserve Premier Breeder went to Kings-Ransom Farm. Luncrest Farm was the Premier Exhibitor after a great day, at or near the top in several of the cow classes. Cookiecutter Holsteins was the Reserve Premier Exhibitor with several outstanding cows admired throughout the show.

Ziemba receives the Image Award at the 54th All-American Dairy Show Barbara Ziemba received the Image Award at the 54th All-American Dairy Show in Harrisburg, PA. The Image Award is presented annually to an individual who has enhanced the image of the All-American Dairy Show with significant contributions to its reputation, prestige and welfare. Ziemba has served as the show’s sponsorship coordinator for six years. As someone who understands the needs of exhibitors and agribusinesses at a large dairy show, Barb has seen great success in her role, raising more than $500,000 in cash and donations. Along with her late husband Steve and sons Kevin and Tim, Ziemba established a successful registered dairy farm – Ziems Farms – in Weedsport, N.Y. They exhibited cattle at local, state, and national shows including Eastern States, All-American Dairy Show, North American International Livestock Expo, Canadian Royal Winter Fair, and World Dairy Expo. The operation was nominated three times with the All-American Best Three females and earned the Reserve All-American Best Three in 2002.

Ziemba owns multiple highpedigreed Holstein and Red and White cattle in partnership with her sons and other breeders. Ziemba’s son Kevin, his wife Barb, and their son Mason live in Durhamville, NY. Her son Tim, his wife Leah, and their children Claire and Luke live in Cambridge, WI. Ziemba is a member of the New York and Wisconsin Holstein associations. She served on the New York Holstein board of directors for more than 15 years, also serving on the Association’s membership committee.

Looking Back to the October News, 1959: There were 479 head exhibited at the New York State Fair with Allen Hetts as judge. There were 75 bulls shown, 192 calves & heifers, and 212 cows. P P Betty Burke Posch repeated as Senior & Grand Champion for Frogmore, Wes Engst and Dave Morrow, Aurora, NY. Betty topped the aged cow class which numbered 49 head. In the Junior Show, 250 head competed with Ken-Ray Adantha Easter, the winning 3-year-old owned by Lorraine Vail, named Senior & Grand Champion. Albert Buckbee of Warwick won the coveted Lawara Trophy for top showman over perennial contender Marcia Allen. Dutchess County took the County Herd competition, having a stacked deck with the Grand Champion, the Junior Champion, and the 4th place aged cow. They received a trophy and $25.00. The controversial issue of a clambake or a Black & White Show on the opening day of the Diamond Jubilee National Convention in Syracuse in June 1960 was amicably settled at a meeting of the State Directors and Convention Committee. The compromise plan, which met with unanimous approval, called for both a show, to be held at the State Fairgrounds, and a later afternoon clambake at Harden Farms. NYN October 2017 - 63


Bodnar Holsteins Dispersal A good crowd was on hand to see the life work of Louis Bodnar of Bodnar Holsteins, Turin, NY dispersed on a pleasant September 8. The herd, which boasted a herd average near 22,000 lbs. of milk and a BAA of 106.3%, had several outstanding cow families and the herd’s reputation drew solid interest before and during the sale. On the buyer’s side, strong local participation reflected the admiration and friendship many area breeders felt for Bodnar, with several herd members staying in the Lewis and Oneida County areas. Strong Canadian interest (29 head went north of the border) as well helped move the average to $1425 on 139 full lots of all ages. A warm introduction by Sale Manager David Rama started things off, with Rama crediting Lou’s breeding strategy as something “he did in an artistic way.” Lou also took the microphone and thanked the crowd for coming to his retirement party followed by applause from the attendees! Topping the buyers’ list at $2,900 was Bodnar Lynn Airlift (VG-86, 3y), an “end stall cow” in the barn and looking to move up well in score. One of several outstanding Airlift daughters in the herd, she was milking 94 lbs. a day, was a member of the Bodnar show string,

and sold on service to Meridian. Her dam was a VG-85 Dapper with two records over 31,000m, followed by a Lee with 136,000M lifetime. David Rama, Inc. was the buyer. Jim Foote, St. Johnsville, NY went to $2,600 to own Bodnar Sid Cherry (VG-86), a Pine-Tree SidET daughter who also looked to increase in score. Another show cow, she was the first-place 4-yearold and member of the winning Best Three Females at the 2016 Oneida County Holstein Show. Her dam was a VG-86 Lylehaven Lightning-ET daughter twice over 1000f, the next dam was one of several outstanding Roylane Jordan-ET daughters bred here, she VG-87 with 190,000M lifetime and a descendant of Bodnar Bell Cherry (VG-86), the farm’s first Dam of Merit. At $2,500, Brandon Maither, Rockburn, QC took Bodnar Brazzle Janice, a very fancy Arrowstar Brazzle-Imp-ET daughter due in February to 1stClass. From one of the herd’s most successful and prolific cow families, her dam was an EX-90 Final Cut with 926f, followed by a 2E-90 Finest with three records over 1000f, then a VG-85 Storm, also three times over 1000f. Dave Rama and Jack Treadway shared the auctioneer’s gavel with Daniel Brandt highlighting the pedigrees. Don Welk, Dave Bitler, and Kevin Ziemba completed the sale staff, with Merry Rama and Jeannie Nichols at the clerk’s table. Presenting the cattle were Ethan Sherman, Kiersten Hancock, Brian Freeman, and Tim Staring. A partial buyer’s list follows.
