From the President
A Genomic Star
by Joe Miley
Greetings once
again from Wayne
County. It is hard
to believe summer has almost
passed us by, and
we are moving
into
the
fall
Joe Miley
harvest already. It
has certainly been an eventful
summer for Ohio Holstein members.
The National Convention in
Richmond, Virginia, was well
attended by Ohio members, delegates
and the Ohio Junior Association. If
you haven’t attended a National
Convention, I recommend it. It is fun,
educational and a great way to see
great cows and meet Holstein breeders
from all over the country. I also would
encourage our Junior members to join
the trip next year. It is a great way to
make friends and contacts that will
last a lifetime!
Congratulations to all members
who participated in our district shows
this summer. The quality of the cattle
exhibited throughout the state was
exceptional. If you missed the
Holstein shows at the Ohio State Fair,
you missed an outstanding event. The
depth and quality of classes was
amazing. Another highlight was the
Junior Show Grand Champions of all
the breeds being included in the Ohio
State Fair Sale of Champions for the
first time. Thanks to John Spreng,
Angi Kaverman and everyone else that
made that possible!!
The Ohio Summer Sale held
August 17 was also very successful. It
was very well supported with an
average of $3034.18 on 49-1/2 lots.
The sale shows a profit to our
association of over $8,000. Thank you
to everyone who contributed!
The Ohio Holstein Board of
Directors meeting was held September
6 at the Holstein office. It was great to
have 100% of our board present. I will
state again that this is a very good
board and that everyone’s input and
opinions are vital to our association.
If anyone has questions or concerns,
contact your district representative. I
would like to welcome Jennifer
Bouton to the board as a representative from District 4. Jenn will begin
her term in December.
In the General Managers’s report,
Don Alexander stated that he and

Esther are working on the Ohio
Holstein Association booth for World
Dairy Expo. If you get to Madison, be
sure to stop by the booth. He also
gave a report on the Fall Sale to be
held November 19 in Wooster. We are
having the sale with the Ayrshire and
Brown Swiss breeders. Plans are to sell
55 Holsteins, 25 Ayrshires and 20
Brown Swiss. Contact Don for more
details or to consign. Plans are also in
progress to have a sale in conjunction
with our annual meeting on March
16, 2012, at the Richland County
Fairgrounds.
The Annual Meeting Committee
reported that the meeting will be held
in Bellville at the Quality Inn on
March 16-17. Details will follow.
The Show Committee reported
that there were 216 head of Holsteins
exhibited at the Ohio State Fair.
Juniors are still doing fundraisers
to finance their projects and trip to
National Convention.
The Membership
Committee
reported that membership was very
strong this year (786 paid memberships) and the committee is getting
started on next year’s membership
drive.
Tom Thorbahn and Julie Renner
are moving forward with plans to host
another National Convention in
Ohio. We are scheduled for 2025, but
we may be able to move that date up
several years.
The next meeting of the Board will
be December 13 at 10:30 a.m. at Select
Sires in Plain City.
Once again, I thank our committees for the work they do. If you are on
a committee, I encourage you to be
active. If you are not currently on a
committee but would like to be, call
me; we will fix that!!
Contact me with any questions or
concerns. My cell phone number is
330-466-7223 and my email is
[email protected], or contact Diana
or Don at the office at 330-264-9088.
Thanks — Joe

New Board Member from D-5
Hello from District 5. I am Greg
Conrad, and I am the new board
member from District 5. I served two
terms on the Ohio Holstein Board
back in the 90’s and am excited to be
back on the board again.
Conrad Farm was started by my
grandparents, Tom and Anna Mae,
over a half century ago, and this is
where I have lived my whole life. My
grandmother still lives on the farm,
and my parents, Don and Joyce, are
still very active with the farming
operations. We are located in the
southwest corner of Pickaway County,
45 minutes south of Columbus near a
town called New Holland. We farm
400 acres and have around 250 head
of cattle on the farm. We usually milk
just under 100 Holsteins and
Ayrshires. Nearly all of our animals are
registered and 25% are Ayrshires. We
currently
have
two
part-time
employees.
My wife Judy and I both graduated
from The Ohio State University in
1989, where I received a bachelor’s
degree in dairy science. Judy and I have

been married nearly 20 years. We have
four children: Mikayla, 17; Macy 15;
Macrae, 13; and Maylon, 10. Judy
thoroughly enjoys caring for our
children, from preparing meals to
driving them to and from activities to
tucking them in bed every night. She
also stays busy with landscaping,
gardening and assisting on the farm
when needed. She is racking up the
miles on the road this year driving
Mikayla to various county fair and
district shows. We are very proud that
Mikayla entered the Holstein queen
contest, without the push from her
parents, and is serving as the 2011
Ohio Holstein Queen. Our children
are involved in many activities
through school, 4-H, FFA and church
and help on the farm when they can.
They all love to show their dairy cattle
at the county and district levels and
especially at the state fair.
We harvest all of our corn silage,
ear corn, square bales and round bales.
We like to get our animals out on dirt
as much as possible. All of our
Holsteins carry the Conrad prefix.
When selecting bulls, we look closely
at feet and legs and udders to make
sure we are breeding for longevity. We
believe a measure for a good cow is
not just one big milk record, but many.
We currently have two cows over 13
years of age, one at 290,000 lbs. of
milk lifetime and the other at 270,000
lbs. of milk lifetime. They are both
sired by Conrad Mandel Jack, a
Mandel son out of a homebred
Excellent Blackstar.
I try to get off the farm when I can
and make it to the activities of my
children. My family and I attend Grace
United Methodist Church and are
active there. I am also a board member
for the American Dairy Association
Mideast. I believe that it is important
to tear down barriers and build unity if
we wish to succeed in the future as
purebred breeders and dairymen.

25th distribution. If you need ideas for ads, check with the
office, as we may have show photos or Junior photos that
you could use. Ad focus can be on potential All-Ohios,
youth, celebrating family, a roundup of the year’s activities,
thanking helpers and buyers and sending holiday greetings.
The text will include district shows and advance
information
on
the
Annual
Meeting
and
Convention/Spring Sale in March.
Once again, we thank COBA/Select Sires for graciously
agreeing to sponsor the All-Ohio calendar, which will be a
part of the January-February issue. Remember to get your
photos taken and to the office by the December 1 deadline.
Juniors, please include a headshot or small photo of
yourself with your entry.
Have a safe harvest.
This issue and our May-June Membership issue are
being distributed from the Ohio/New York booth in the
Coliseum at World Dairy Expo and will reach a wider-thanusual audience.
We had a number of photos from the National
Convention and from the Ohio State Fair that we were
unable to run in this issue due to space and cost
considerations. I appreciate breeder advertisers such as BenAlli, Line-View Dairy and Seven Gables, who featured
photos of Junior members in their ads. I also appreciate
breeders, such as Richman Farms and Kiko Farms, using
show photos in their ads, and others like Jaloda, Lorawae,
Miley, Paradise-Valley, Quality-Quest, Quietcove and
Springhill for advertising their show winnings. Surely there
were more winners than that.
The Pine Tree Dairy and Hartline ads advertised specific
sales. Other breeder ads referred to purchases or sales, new
records or that hot new cow or cow family. New advertisers
this issue are Line View Dairy and Neueway Farms. We aim
to have each breeder ad include a call to action. This may be
something as simple as “Look for our Consignment,”
“Visitors Welcome,” “Stop and See Us,” Call for More
Information” or “Look for Us at the Show or Sale.” Breeders
always have something to advertise.
Looking forward to the next issue, we would like to have
all the ads in the office by October 20 for the November

2011 National Holstein Futurity
information provided by Mary Lou Topp
From left: 5th place Brookview-E Lifestyle-ET, Eric Havens; 4th place Pineybrook Spice-Red, Chris Lahmers; 3rd place Koneta Dundee Jade, Jeff
Brown; 2nd place Express SMD Velvet Tara-ET, Jeremy Adams; 1st place Miley Advent B-Gem Red, Jason Miley; Ohio Holstein Queen Mikayla
Conrad; Judge Lynn Harbaugh
The 54th National Holstein Futurity was held July 30 in
the Coliseum at the Ohio State Fairgrounds in Columbus.
The event began with Steve Maurer singing the National
Anthem along with Lisa Gallager, organist, and the AllOhio Choir.
Gregg Topp was the announcer for the show and the
parade into the ring.
Morris Van Gorden’s four-horse hitch is always a crowd
pleaser, and Ohio Holstein Queen Mikayla Conrad joined
Morris on the driver’s seat. Riding in the wagon were Lynn
Harbaugh, Judge; Mary Lou Topp, National Holstein
Futurity Executive Secretary; and Stacey French and Sharon
Martin, secretaries for general manager of the Ohio State
Fair Virgil Strickler. Riding with Bob Sommers in his 1935
Flatbed Chevy truck were Angi Kaverman, Dairy
Superintendent, and Don Alexander, general manager of
the Ohio Holstein Association.
Fourteen beautifully groomed three-year-old Holsteins
circled the ring waiting for the judge’s decision. When the
lineup was complete, Miley Advent B Gem-Red, led by
Jason Miley of Miley Holsteins Ltd., West Salem, stood in
first place as the National Holstein Futurity winner and Best
Udder in the class.
Second place went to Express SMD Velvet Tara-ET, led by
Jeremy Adams of Stan-Mar-Dale/Express, Urbana, and third
place and second Best Udder went to Koneta Dundee Jade,
Koneta Holsteins, Jackson Center. Pineybrook Spice-Red
from Lah-Dale Holsteins, Marysville, was the fourth-place
three-year-old. Standing in fifth place was Brookview-E
Lifestyle-ET from Brookview Farms, Fremont.
Wabash-Way Bolt Marion from Topp-View Farms,
Botkins, was sixth, and Wolf-Ridge Bolton Delilah from
Call-Del Farm, South Charleston, was seventh. Sanorvalley
Terrason Gem, from Bryce Sanor, Homeworth, was eighth,
and Richlin-J Advent Maggie-ET from David Finefrock of
New Carlisle was ninth. Rounding out the top ten was
Indian-Stone SS Lindsey-ET from Indian Stone Holsteins,
Versailles.
Futurity winner Miley Advent B Gem wore the white
satin blanket and red rose collar as she paraded to the song
“Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey.
16 | OHIO NEWS | 9-10/2011
The Futurity wishes to thank the following who
contributed to the success of the show: John Spreng and all
of the Ohio State Fair Commissioners; COBA/Select Sires
and Genex for the cash award to top-placing Junior Katelyn
McDaniel of Springfield for her 11th-place entry, Call-Del
Frantabulous Dottie; photographer Carrie Topp; Stacey
French and Sharon Martin, secretaries; Lindsey Bowen, Lucy
Bambauer and Leslie Maurice for making the rose collar;
Paul Haskins and Glen Sageser for lining up cattle in the
barn; sanitary engineers Brennan Topp and Keaton Topp.
The Futurity especially thanks all the breeders for
participating in the Futurity for 54 years and encourages
everyone to enter to keep this exciting show as a special
event at the Ohio State Fair. Members of the National
Holstein Futurity Board of Directors are Sherry Smith,
Heather Yoder, Joe Miley, Tony Boshes, Paul Haskins, Keith
Topp, Dave Shannon and Nevin L’Amoreaux.
Looking ahead, there are two opportunities for entering
the 57th Futurity, which will show in 2014. Breeders have
the choice to make all four payments up front in one
payment of $30 or to use the rate of $3.00 for each animal
entered by October 20, 2011, followed by payment in the
second and third years. Futurity entry blanks can be found
on pages 56 and 57 in this issue or can be obtained from
executive secretary Mary Lou Topp, 10344 Botkins Road,
Botkins, Ohio 45306.

Can you identify this group?
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone,
especially the buyers and consignors, that helped make the
Ohio Summer Sale a success. Our goal was to average over
$3,000 — mission accomplished. Plans and selections are
under way for the Ohio Multi-Breed Fall Sale. This year,
Ohio Ayrshire Association and the Ohio Brown Swiss
Association will also participate in the event, which will be
held at the Wayne County Fairgrounds on November 19,
2011. The sale will start with the Ayrshires at 10:00, Brown
Swiss at 11:00, followed by the Holsteins at 12:00. There
will be approximately 75- 80 selling.

10% discount if received by December 1. Congratulations
to the Board of Directors and our members for the increase
in membership this year, and we would like to challenge
everyone for another increase in 2012. There has been an
option added to Junior Memberships: a one-time fee of
$20.00 that will cover a Junior from age one through 19.
Annual Junior memberships can still be paid at $2.00 per
Junior per year or $5.00 per family. If you have any
questions, please call the office at 330-264-9088.
Be sure to look for the Ohio Holstein Association
booth that we’ll share with the New York Holstein
Association again this year in the lower level of the
Coliseum at World Dairy Expo. Good luck to everyone
from Ohio participating in the greatest show in the world,
and safe travels to all who attend.
Take care,
Don

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.

Let’s “Get Real” About
Childhood Obesity
We are constantly bombarded with
newspaper articles and television
Barb Lumley
reports on the growing problem of
obesity in children. Often these reports blame the problem
on dairy products, and some schools — not only in other
states but also in Ohio — are now refusing to allow
children to drink chocolate milk with their lunches. I have
to ask, “What is really causing the obesity problem today?”
I certainly don’t believe the blame should be placed on
dairy products! Years ago, when meals were put on the
table, they consisted of meat, potatoes, garden vegetables
and whole milk, often from Jerseys with high butterfat
content. Real butter and homemade jam went on the bread,
whole milk and butter in the mashed potatoes; the meat
usually had some fat on it, and if there was pie for dessert,
the crust was made with lard. If foods were fried, it was
usually in lard or bacon grease.
And, yes, when I went to school, there were a few
chubby kids, and I was one of them, but we hardly knew of
any children with diabetes. What was different then? We ate
what our moms cooked and put before us. Our moms were
busy ladies, and they didn’t cater to our likes and dislikes.
It was “eat and be quiet.” We didn’t go to the cupboard and
grab a bag of Snickers, Oreos or potato chips in between
meals. If we were lucky, Mom might have time to bake
some cookies, pie or a cake maybe once a week. And we
always asked before we took any!
Candy was usually a special treat. Hopefully, we would
receive a few pennies to spend on candy when we went to
the grocery store. They didn’t have bags and bags of every
kind you can imagine sitting on the shelves, as they do in
the stores today. Candy was for Christmas time, when you
were excited to get a chunk of Hershey’s chocolate chopped
off a huge block laying on the grocery store counter, or you
made taffy or fudge at home. You didn’t eat candy every day.
And soda pop? Sometimes when dad went to the local
filling station to buy gas or get a tire fixed, you were allowed
a bottle of Orange Crush or Coca-Cola from the cooler. The
refrigerator at home didn’t hold 24 cans of Mountain Dew,
containing 46 grams of sugar in each can. And if you were
lucky enough to have a few bottles of your favorite soda in
the refrigerator, you didn’t drink four or five of them a day.
Instead you drank lemonade, iced tea or Kool-Aid. And
when you were working in 90-degree summer heat, it was
lots of water.
We didn’t sit around all day watching television or
playing video games. You went outside and played fetch
with the dog or skipped rope or took a long walk along the
creek. You rode your bicycle or got together with the
neighbor kids to play ball. If you were older, you mowed
the lawn, but not with a riding lawn mower. You pushed
one! Or you helped hoe the garden, so mom had plenty of
those fresh vegetables to cook for you. For those of us on
the farm, there was a multitude of chores. Loading hay,
unloading hay, feeding calves, carrying water, pitching
manure, bedding stalls, sweeping floors — there was
plenty to keep us busy.
We ate good, healthful, homegrown food, and we used
every dairy product. We didn’t consume products loaded
with sugar, corn syrup, sodium, hydrogenated oils,
xantham and guar gum, sorbitan monostearate, sodium
polyphosphates, chicory root fiber, carob powder and many
other ingredients that we can’t pronounce or identify, and
don’t know where they came from! We know that milk
comes from a cow, and dairy products are made from milk.
One percent chocolate milk has 140 calories per cup and 23
grams of sugar, less than most kinds of soda. It contains
Vitamins D and A and calcium. White milk comes as 1%,
2% or whole milk, and if you had no other food available,
you could survive on it. Baby calves do for several weeks!
Try that with Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, sport drinks, etc.
There is a new program at the University of Illinois that
combines a Ph.D. with a Master in
Public Health degree, focused on
child obesity prevention. This
program is being funded with a
$4.5 million grant from the
USDA’s National Institute of
Food and Agriculture. The
research program is called the
Illinois
Transdisciplinary
Obesity Program, or I-TOPP. I
have to ask, “Do they really need
$4.5 million of taxpayers’
money to figure it out?” It’s time
to “GET REAL” about what really
causes childhood obesity and
diabetes. It isn’t chocolate milk!

The Queen’sby Mikayla
Corner
Conrad
Hey, Holstein friends! For those of you whom I have not
yet met, my name is Mikayla Conrad, and I am the 2011
Ohio Holstein Queen. I am truly enjoying the opportunity
to represent Holsteins and the dairy industry. The past
several months, I have been traveling around the state going
to the district Holstein shows and county fair open dairy
shows. I have loved every minute of almost every trip. I say
“almost,” because Mom and I had some problems with the
GPS once or twice. Every show has had different ways of
running the shows, and each show has run pretty smoothly.
I have also had a chance to expand on my own judging
skills. I have done some dairy judging through my FFA
chapter, so I know the basics. By watching all the shows, I
have been able to listen to the judges’ reasons for placing
the classes. I can tell I am getting better when I place the
class the same (or close to the same) as the judge.
My favorite part of this whole experience as queen so far
has been meeting so many new people. I have met many
people involved with the shows and Ohio Holstein
Association, as well as several girls who are county, district
or state queens or princesses.
I know the show season is starting to die down, but if
there are county fairs or any other miscellaneous events you
would like me to attend, I would love to come! To get a
hold of me, email me at [email protected] or call me
at 740-495-5067. I look forward to attending many more
shows and meeting more people.

Woman of the Year
As the summer comes to a close, look around at the
women close to you. Who has fed calves, registered calves,
milked the cows, made hay, made sure everyone was fed in
the field, at the table and at the shows? You get the picture
— think about nominating that indispensable woman at
your farm for the Ohio Holstein Woman of the Year. The
nomination form will be in the November-December issue
of the Ohio News.

Ohio’s Statewide 4-H Dairy Quiz Bowl
Article and photos provided by Bonnie Ayars
Garth Brooks said it so well in his song titled “Rodeo,”
but obviously he has never seen a Quiz Bowl competition.
Ohio’s 4-H Dairy Quiz Bowl was just completed, and it was
obvious to observers that some of those lyrics could be
rewritten for our group!
Their eyes were focused, clear and eager.
Their fingers and hands were clutching a buzzer.
Questions and answers received full attention
And WE call the game “Dairy Quiz Bowl” competition!
The drama of those lyrics is just how the “game” played
out July 5 at the Nationwide and Ohio Farm Bureau 4-H
Center on the campus of Ohio State. Questions such as
“what is another term for calving” and “who is the
managing editor of Hoard’s Dairyman” were just two of the
many answered correctly on Tuesday, July 5. Teams from all
over the state came to do their best in this annual
competition. Some traveled from counties nearby, and
others spent the night in Columbus to avoid the morning
commute. Over a light breakfast, coaches, volunteers and
participants shared some social time before the Junior and
Senior written quizzes were given. A walking tour of campus
helped to pass the time while the brackets were formulated.
The Junior competition included teams and double
elimination rounds, and the Senior division was formatted
similarly to the popular Jeopardy game show. With hands
poised on the buzzers, answers were provided confidently,
some with hesitation, and others with wit. For example,
one young man seemed to draw humor as his face reflected
exactly whether he knew the answer OR did not know it.
The tension in the room melted away into laughter as his
face displayed good luck AND anguish! Meanwhile in
another area of the 4-H Center, older 4-H youth were
selecting their favorite dairy categories for Jeopardy. Brave
dairy youth asked for 50-point answers. Wagers and bets
created interest as they relied on some luck, as well as
intellect.
Following are the results of the day:
Senior Jeopardy winners were
1st: Mark Gordon, Wayne County
2nd: Diane Gress, Wayne County
3rd: Tanner Topp, Wayne County
4th: Tyler Schonauer, Wayne County
5th: Julie Gress, Wayne County
6th: Mikayla Conrad, Pickaway County
7th: Macy Conrad, Pickaway County
The Wayne County group was coached by Lisa Gress
and Pickaway County ladies by Judy Conrad.

Diane Gress of Wayne County
High Junior Teams:

Brennan Topp, Ashley Hawvermale, Todd Gordon,

The
Ohio
Juniors have had
a busy summer.
Along with all
the
various
shows, a group
of Ohio Juniors
traveled to the
National Convention in Richmond for
competitions. A group of 28 got together
for the Ohio Junior Fun Day at Magic
Mountain in Columbus and had a good
time. The Ohio Juniors had an ice cream
social after the Junior show at the Ohio
State Fair for Junior exhibitors and
Judging competitors. Then the Juniors
led for the Ohio Summer Sale as well as
provided a lunch stand in August. It’s
been a busy, busy season! Now we move
into fall with plans for a fall/winter
activity — so watch your mail, the Ohio
Holstein Association website or the
Ohio Junior Holstein Association
Facebook page for updates.
We also kick off our annual Holiday
Cheese Sales — an order form is included
on this page. Cheese will be available for
pickup at the Fall Sale in November. We
are also selling raffle tickets for the
Sullivan Chute and Mat, donated by
Beck’s Hybrids and Matt Lawson. Tickets
are $5.00 for one or $20.00 for five
tickets and are available from Ohio
Juniors or advisors. Please consider
supporting these Junior fundraisers.
Funds raised by the Juniors help pay for
and keep costs down for activities such as
Fun Days, annual meeting activities,
National Conventions, memberships
and more. We appreciate the support of
organizations and people like the
Lawsons; Beck’s Hybrids; Pearl Valley
Cheese; ADA Mideast, which donated the
ice cream for the State Fair and milk for
the spring lunch stand; and Smith Dairy,
which donated milk for the summer
lunch stand.
It’s time to start thinking about State
awards for the year — Junior All-Ohios,
Production, Queen, Distinguished Member, Memorial and more. Some of those
forms are in this issue or next, and some
are available from advisors — please
contact the OHA office for more details.
If you are NOT receiving Junior email
updates, please contact Diana Miley at the
OHA office to verify or add your email.
Grapevine – continued from page 12
On July 16, Richard Harstine,
Dundee, District 3, and his cousin Matt
Harstine were operating a tractor and
brush hog on a steep hill when the
machine overturned, seriously injuring
both. Matt suffered burn injuries and is
receiving ongoing medical attention.
Richard was treated for bruises, lung and
shoulder injuries and a fractured ankle.
On August 2 about 15 “angels” —
neighbors — descended on Harstine
Dairy to help make haylage. The
Harstines continue to thank all those
who worked, volunteered, provided
equip-ment or food, etc. or otherwise
helped the family. Richard and Cathy
and sons Bo, Ty and Colton have a
milking herd of 65 Holsteins.
•
Sorry to hear that Ramsier Dairy,
District 7, had a fire on July 29 with the
loss of barns, bulk tank and a robotic
milker. No cows were lost, and they are
back to milking.
•
Lausin Farms, District 1, had a close
call when chopped straw stored in the
hayloft began to heat. Firefighters were
able to load the straw into manure
spreaders and distribute it on nearby
fields. Only one side of the barn was
affected, and no cows were lost.
•
Greta Call, D-13, has retired after a
46-year teaching career in the
Northeastern School District, in subjects
ranging from Home Economics to
Consumer Science.

Your Beef Checkoff Dollars at Work
Your Beef Checkoff. Investing in Beef Safety,
Nutrition and Promotion.
Promotion
GrillMaster Experience Across
America
Mobile
sampling and
demonstration tours are
fast becoming
one of the
most effective platforms in engaging
with American consumers in today’s
society. Savvy consumers want to see,
taste and experience products for themselves before they make any further
decisons.
To leverage this interest, the Beef
Checkoff joined the likes of Sam’s Club,
the Kansas City Barbeque Society,
Trybe Targeting and Bull Outdoor
Products to develop the American
GrillMaster Experience.
The American GrillMaster Experience began in June and runs through
October 8 at Sam’s Club locations
across the country in an effort to get
the most out of the grilling season.
Each event incorporated beef grilling demostrations using both charcoal
and gas, as well as, product samples for
consumers to enjoy. Additionally, the
Checkoff funded “Beef Team” will be
in attendance at each event to provide
recipes, cooking tips and other materials designed to educate the masses.
While the tour was not able to make
a stop in Ohio, Checkoff staffers are
working together to make these stops
possible in next year’s campaign.
Retailers Getting the “Beef Fast
Facts”
The American GrillMaster Experience wasn’t the only promotion executed at the national level throughout
the summer to keep beef top of mind as
folks hit their patios.
The checkoff worked closely with
retailers across America to provide the
new edition of the “Beef Fast Facts”
that reached more than 850 meat-case
managers arming them with the latest
data and sales tips to help promote beef
for grilling and position these retailers
as expert beef resources for their shoppers.
In the Northeast, not only were the
Beef Fast Facts distributed but also a
plethora of recipe booklets, retail posters, shelf wobblers and an informationsal “Stay
Home,
Grill
Out”
Website directing consumers to beef
information, recipes and sweepstakes
entry. More than 315 retail locations
throughout the Northeast participated
in the promotion with the Website
alone garnering 18,446 vistors.
Consumer Information
You Heard It From a Farmer
Over the summer the Ohio Beef
Council joined forces with the Ohio
Livestock
Coalition
and other
commodity
groups to execute the “You Heard It
From a Farmer” radio campaign.
This campaign was executed in an
effort to educate consumers about what
Ohio livestock farmers do on a day-today basis to bring the food they love
to tables across Ohio and across the
country.
This campaign gave listeners a firsthand account of how Ohio farmers
ensure exellent animal care, protect the
environment and provide safe, wholesome food for today’s consumers.
“You Heard It From a Farmer”
kicked off on August 15 and ran
through August 28 hitting the radiowaves in the Columbus, ClevelandAkron, Cincinnati, Lima, Zaneville,
Dayton, Youngtown, Toledo and
Wheeling markets.
Representing the beef indusrty was
the voice of the Ohio Cattlemen’s
Association President Dave Felumlee.
Dave spoke on food safety and the
many steps he takes on his farm to set
the highest of standards to consistently
provide a safe, healthy product.
Industry Information
Raising Our Voices
“U.S. farmers and ranchers have
raised a lot of things. Except our
voices.”
This is the message being extended
throughout ads across the United
States.
The U.S. Farmer and Rancher Alliance in part with the Beef Checkoff are
presently executing this the first phase
in a movement to lead the conversation
about the future of food production.
USFRA is seeking farmer and
rancher engagement in a campaign that
ultimately will reach key influencers
and help build consumer trust in the
beef industry as well as agriculture as
whole.
It begins with you! visit the revamped
Website at USFRAonline.org and
submit the one thing you wish consumers knew about the beef industry or
food production in general. We should
be the ones telling the real story so let
your voice be heard!
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, 614-873-6736, beef@

DALE A. DEAM, 76, of Springfield, died July 7, 2011.
The son of Edward and Isabel (Allen) Deam, he was
raised on their dairy farm in Clark County, where he
developed a love of both agriculture and competitive
sports. As a 4-Her, he proudly showed his beautiful
Holstein cow Gracie as grand champion at the
Champaign and Clark county fairs. At Northwestern
High School, he was known as “Little Yogi” for his
prodigious catching skills on the baseball team. At 16,
he tried out for the Cincinnati Reds and was told to
come back when he was 18. Dale decided against
baseball, choosing instead to attend college, but
remained a lifelong Reds fan.
Dale and Carol Ruth (Pyles) Deam were married
January 5, 1954, and soon after, Dale joined the U.S.
Army, serving in Germany for two years. He toured the
country as a member of the Army baseball team,
sending photos and souvenirs home to Ruth and their
baby son Tom. When he returned home, the family
moved to Columbus, where Dale followed in his
father’s footsteps by attending The Ohio State
University. A true Buckeye, Dale enjoyed OSU football
and basketball and instilled in his family a love for
Ohio State. Two new additions to the family, daughters
Beth and Michele, came along during that time. The
Deam family would expand over the years to include
two more boys Steve and Neil.
Dale graduated with a degree in Agricultural
Economics in 1960. The family returned to the family
farm in Springfield, where Dale milked his Holstein
herd to fund his and his father’s real passion, racing
Standardbred horses. The family enjoyed watching
their horses race and win at Scioto Downs and local
fairs.
Dale was a member of North Hampton
Community Church, Ohio Holstein Association, Clark
County Farm Bureau, United States Trotting
Association and The Ohio State University Alumni
Association.
Dale is survived by his wife Carol; sons Thomas A.
Deam of West Liberty, Steven S. (Deidre) Deam of
Hilliard and Neil M. (Jennifer) Deam of Sugarcreek;
and daughters Michele E. (Steve) Specht of Dover and
Beth A. (Bill) Davenport of Pittsburg.
Dale was blessed with 20 grandchildren and 12
great-grandchildren. They are Kelly (Luke) Moritz,
Wynn and Will; Todd (Brandi) Deam, Brody and
Bayleigh; Shannon (John) Crowder and Kipton; Laura
Deam and fiancé Brad Cox; Tyler and Kaleb Deam;

From
National Director
Hello, Everyone.
I would like to
thank everyone
for giving me the
opportunity to
serve as your
Area 2 Director
for Holstein USA and to tell you a
little about myself. My wife Bobbi and
I have been married for 38 years, and
we have four children and eight
grandchildren.
We currently farm 3,800 acres of
corn, beans, wheat and hay. We also
have 100 Registered Holsteins and
their offspring at Springbrook Farms,
Inc., Marshall, Indiana. We run 40
head of beef cows that we use for our
recipients. We currently have a BAA of
Hauling
Anywhere
Page 1
109.2. This summer we had the
privilege of breeding and exhibiting
the Grand Champion at the Indiana
State Show. We also won Premier
Breeder at the Indiana State Fair.
Last month I went to Brattleboro
for a two-day orientation at the
Holstein office. Ray Buessing of
Kansas and I got to spend time in
every department and see how
Holstein USA runs. After the two days,
I have come to the conclusion that
Holstein USA is very well-managed
and runs very efficiently. So far this
year, Holstein Complete is up a little;
classification is running a little behind

of the shortfall. Tag sales are basically
even with last year. Transfers are down
just a little. But overall, we are on track
for another positive year.
Well, I need to close and get back
to work. I hope everyone has a safe
and successful fall. I will talk to you a
little more next issue.
If you have any questions, you can

Thank you to Ella Jackson of Oakson South
for purchasing Marsha’s Bomaz Boulder
daughter in the Mid-East Impact Sale.
We have two Bomaz Boulder
daughters in the heifer barns.
Thank you to all our Holsteins friends who
helped us through the fire that destroyed
our hay barn and through the rebuilding.
We’re here with
the best options
So you can make
the right choice
At John Deere, we want to make downtime as quick and
pain-free as possible. That’s why we offer John Deere
remanufactured components, in addition to other repair
options. Reman components are thoroughly engineered to
meet the same stringent specs as new parts while costing
about 30 to 40 percent less. Plus, you’ll get back to work
sooner by avoiding time spent waiting on a rebuild.
Ask your dealer about John Deere Reman today. It could
be the difference between being done and getting done.
Keep Rollin’ with Polen!
