This very exciting Shottle is from Debutante Rae’s EX-94 Stormatic, the feature of last month’s ad. Sarah is making a great record and is developing into a high-scoring young cow. We are thrilled with her development. She has 8 #1 Atwood embryos and will be flushed to sexed McCutchen semen this month. High type, great production, and super brood cows make the Roxys the greatest family over the last 40 years of Holstein breeding. MAYERLANE It’s That Time! FRM HOLSTEINS Need embryos? We got ‘em! “Satisfying the Worldâ€? Check ‘em out on page 10.

As the leaves begin to fall... So do the NCAA rankings of the Big 10 football teams. It’s time they make them play quality teams every week. It’s also time for the overrated UW-Badgers to stop whining about the end of the Arizona State game. It was just poor coaching! Good luck to our friends going to World Dairy Expo, especially to our old Sheraton gang.

WHO SELLS MILK? 1. Magazines sell numbers, type & pretty pictures. 2. Processing plants and dairy checkoffs sure don’t. 3. Dairymen drink beer & pop. 4. Cats eat cat food & drink water.
