But our Newberry 4-H Dairy members made their mark at both local and State Fairs. Our congratu lations to them for a job well done! In spite of strong competi tion, our Newberry 4-H’ers came through with flying col ors. Best Fitted Animal and Best Showman contests are the highlight of every dairy show. At our local fair, Susan Hamm was a winner in both contests in a strong Guernsey Show with over 30 animals com peting. Other Guernsey winn ers in Fitting and Showman ship included Lana Kay Kun- kle, Alice Lathrop and Lindel Hawkins. In the Jersey Show at our Fair, Mary Margaret Parr won the Best Fitted Animal Class and Henry Parr Jr. was named Best Showman. Notice how the girls beat the boys for the top awards in exhibiting dairy cattle. Both Grand Champion honors went to Newberry girls. Susan Hamm with her 3-year old Guernsey cow “Annette” was Guernsey Grand Champion, and Mary Bryan Parr with her 3-year old Jersey cow, “Brenda” won Jersey Grand Champion. LAURENS FAIR At Laurens, Boyd Parr won top honors in both the fitting and Showmanship contests as well as first place in the Jer sey Junior Calf and Aged Cow classes. His cow, “Panda” went on to win Grand Champion hon ors of the Jersey show. In the Guernsey Show, Lin del Hawkins was first place winner in both the Junior Calf and 2 Year Old Cow classes. Susan Hamm won first place in the Senior Calf, Junior Year ling and 3 Year Old Cow class. Susan’s cow, “Annette” went on to win Grand Champion of the Guernsey Show. Newberry County won first place county group in both the Jersey and Guernsey shows at Laurens County Fair. STATE FAIR State Fair was the pay-off. In competition with other 4-H members from all over South Carolina, Newberry 4-H’ers shone again. Henry Parr Jr. was named top Showman in the Jersey Show. Frances Folk won second place in both the Showmanship and Best Fitted Animal classes. Winners in the Junior Fitting and Showing Jersey Division included Nancy Ruff, Charles Rinehart, and Boyd Parr. Mary Bryan Parr’s cow, “Brenda” was named 4-H Grand Champion Jersey cow and Newberry county won first place county group of best 5 females. Guernsey Clubsters did well at State Fair too. They won 4 first place awards with only 8 animals. Alice Lathrop won Best Showman of the Junior Guernsey division and Susan Hamm and Lana Fay Kunkle were second place winners in the Senior division, Best Show man and Best Fitted Animal classes, respectively. Lindel Hawkins was first place winner in the Junior Calf class of both the 4-H and Open Show. Lindel also won first place in the 2 Year Old Cow class of the 4-H show. In summary, a total of 55 first place awards were won by Newberry 4-H Dairy mem bers at Newberry, Laurens and State Fairs. This proves, we feel, that Newberry County has both the best 4-H members and the best dairy cattle of any county in South Carolina. OPEN SHOW EXHIBITORS It w’as good to have several of our dairy farmers exhibiting their pure-bred cattle at the fairs. C. M. Satterwhite and Sons, Wayne and William along with Herdsman Lee Sparks exhibit ed a good group of Helsteins. Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Hamm had several good Guernseys shown from Myrtledale Farms. Harry E. Mayer and sons, Lee and Elliott showed a nice group of Guernseys at Newber ry and at Laurens. Richard Henry Ruff made the entire show circuit of all three fairs with a good string of Jerseys. November Dairy Meetings Again we remind dairy farm ers of several meetings to at tend in November. Two meetings especially foi dairy farm labor-those who ac tually do the milking-will be held. The first on November 13 will be held at the C. M. Sat terwhite dairy farm. Proper milking procedure, including cow preparation, stimulating milk-let-down, and complete milk-out will be demonstrated. The second meeting on No vember 20 will be held at the Dave Waldrop Farm, and will be on Sanitation, or Cleanliness in the milking barn.

This meeting will be held the American Legion Hut at the Fairgrounds. In addition to a good program on Silage, and Hay, those attend ing will try their hand at judg ing hay and silage samples for Quality.
