From The Executive Director By Tom Thorbahn

Well spring is finally here— sunshine, warmer weather, birds singing and spring flowers, what a relief after a cold and snowy winter. The weather of winter did not keep Registered Holstein breeders from attending the Convention Sale in March, with a large crowd on hand we had a great sale; you can read the full report in this issue. A big thank you to Quietcove Holsteins, the Elsass family, for hosting the sale and all that went into getting ready. The Sale Committee did a great job, with super consignments. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard on making this a great sale. At our Annual Meeting in Lima, hosted by District 12, Randall Kiko took over the Presidency from outgoing President, Dallas Rynd. Congratulations to new Vice-President, Paul Haskins, and Secretary, Susan Lora; Lisa Kerr remains as Treasurer. The Nominating Committee appreciates all those who considered running for office this year, a special thank you to those who said yes to running for office. The Association also thanks District 12 for arranging and hosting this year’s events. One complaint the office has heard about is the slow delivery of the Ohio News by the post office. The News Committee, editor, Jackie Bickel, and myself have decided to try a different mailing rate; evidently other breed magazines are having similar problems.

Please let us know if your News continues to be later than normal. Those of you who attended the Annual Meeting heard that the Ohio Holstein members will be hosting the National Holstein Convention in 2021. In February I received an email from Kelli Dunklee at Holstein USA about an opening to host the convention in 2021. Your state board has discussed the possibility of moving forward our year to host the convention; we had been scheduled for 2025. We have now been given the ok to move up and host the convention in 2021. At the Ohio Holstein Board Reorganizational meeting following the Annual Meeting, the board approved Julie Renner and myself as the Co-Chairpersons of the National Convention in 2021. Julie and I will be developing a

steering committee and begin site visits. We have a lot of rules from Holstein USA we must follow as we begin on this journey and make our plans. I hope each of you will consider helping out as we move forward. Also keep in mind this year’s National Convention and Meeting will be held in St. Charles, Illinois, June 23-26. If you would like information on the convention, the website is www. holsteinconvention2015.com. Looking forward to the summer, I hope each of you will attempt to attend or exhibit at your District Show. I know how busy the summer is for dairymen, but what a better way to pass a summer day then visiting with fellow breeders about the great Holstein cow.

“Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.” ~John Lennon By Jackie Bickel, Ohio News Editor

I am a planner and my husband is not. But nonetheless, I like life to happen in an orderly fashion, if I can help it. I prefer to do things myself, and I rarely ask for help. However, March 2015 reminded me that despite my neatly written to-do lists, task alerts on my phone and Excel spreadsheets posted around the house and farm, I am not in charge. And, help is not such a bad thing, after all. As many of you know, Donald and I were expecting our first child “together” in March. Carson Phillip Bickel was scheduled to arrive on Saturday, March 28th. This panicked my husband because March is one of our busiest months of the year. But I thought, “No problem! I’ll get the March Ohio News to the printer, knock out my duties at the Ohio Holstein Annual Meeting, travel to Mercer Co. with my daughter and her teammates for the State FFA Dairy Judging Contest, have a baby and then arrive at the Spring Dairy Expo with a perfectly-groomed string and a son to show off at ring-side.” While I was busy making plans, life happened. Everything went according to schedule, until Carson made his debut into the world. Upon his arrival, we had some complications, which resulted in a month-long stay at Dayton Children’s Hospital in the NICU. This was not on any of my to-do lists and that was the point where my planning on paper was wadded up and thrown out onto the burn pile. 8

Donald and I found ourselves spending 4-plus hours a day traveling to the hospital to see Carson. We would attempt to make the trek in-between morning and evening chores. But soon, we found ourselves dragging into the hospital late at night, after all the chores were done, because we just couldn’t get away from the farm during the day. Did I mention that Don and I took over the family farming operation in March , as well? At first, we responded to offers of help with, “Thanks, but we’ve got it under control.” And that was so far from the truth. Soon, our responsibilities were piling up, and for the first time, life was overwhelming. I gravitated to my comfort zone and took the girls to Spring Expo, so I could surround myself with work and our “cow family.” It was there, not long after Carson was born, that I realized Donald and I needed help. Not just physical labor, but the emotional and moral support, as well. And it was okay to accept the help and admit that we aren’t as tough as we want everyone to think we are. I expected my family and church to reach out to us, but what I didn’t expect was the outpouring of support and help that came from our dairy friends. Offers to milk, feed, take care of the girls, cook, clean, say a prayer...they came from all parts of our Association... from individuals I had never even met. And I was humbled. It was Spring, and I knew everyone was just as busy as we were. Their willingness to share our burdens was a sacrifice for them. If it wasn’t for our neighbors and dairy friends, Donald and I would not have been able to take the time each day to see Carson. If we didn’t have the extra hands, our crops would have been even later getting into the ground, and we would still have cows that needed to be

turned out from the cow lot. With every ton of feed that was ground, every load of manure that was spread and every acre of ground that was turned, I was thankful to be a part of the dairy community. We could leave for the hospital, every day, knowing that our responsibilities were being handled by capable hands, and that gave us peace of mind. I learned to not be so controlling, and appreciate the fact that the chores may not be done at the time of day that we would have done them, but the fact that they were completed was far more important. To say thank you seems to be so inadequate, and most of you would shrug it off as no big deal. But to Don and I, our friends and family made a huge difference during a very tough time for us. In the future, when one of our “cow family” finds themselves in need of a helping hand, we will be there. Sleeves rolled up, ready to do what we can. God blessed me with a son who has already taught me such an important lesson in his two months of life. I’m not saying that I’ve completely jumped over the fence to live the life of chaos that my husband seems to thrive in, but I am learning that there are better, more important things I can spend my time on, rather than generating ways to stay organized. Now that Carson is finally home, I’m approaching life as it happens. If you stop in, my lawn probably needs mowed and my garden has noticeable weeds. You’ll have to move a load of laundry off the couch to have a seat and there will be dishes in the sink. My desk is a mess because I’m a bit behind in registering calves and we aren’t eating as many meals “from scratch.” But the important things are taken care of, such as my family and the farm. And that’s okay, because I’m learning how to keep busy living life, instead of busy planning it.

Highlights from the 95th Ohio Holstein Annual Meeting 2015 Ohio Holstein Distinguished Service Award

The 2015 Distinguished Service Award winner is Dallas Rynd, a very worthy recipient of this honor. Dallas is the youngest of eight children raised on a Registered Holstein farm in western Pennsylvania. He was active as a youth in 4-H and FFA, receiving the state FFA degree. Following high school he joined the family partnership with his father and two brothers on the home farm. During those years Dallas was primarily in charge of the breeding and merchandising of the herd. In 1985 he became a classifier for Holstein USA in the eastern region of the country. While working for Holstein USA , he met his future wife, Judy Wolford. Upon leaving Holstein he returned to the home farm and on July 4, 1987 Dallas and Judy were married. The newly married couple decided that they wanted their own farm,

and on the last day of January 1992 moved themselves and their herd of Registered Holsteins to Judy’s parents farm in Ashville to start their own dairy farming operation and Silver-Mist Holsteins. Dallas especially enjoys showing cattle and their herd has been exhibited at local, state, and national shows. They have been very successful in the show ring, garnering many awards at their district show, and receiving numerous All-Ohio winners and several All-American nominations. He is especially proud of the many youth activities their farm has been able to participate in over last twenty plus years. They have hosted district FFA judging contests and numerous farm tours for youth from kindergarten to college students. Additionally many nonfarm youth in their county have had the opportunity to work at the farm, as well as participate in 4-H and FFA with project animals from the herd. Dallas has served in numerous offices for the District Five Holstein Club. He served several years on the Pickaway County Farm Bureau Board and has been a member of his township zoning board. He has served the Ohio Holstein Association as Vice-President and the past two years as President, leading the Ohio Association ably leading the association through a very difficult period.

Junior Highlights from the 2015 Annual Meeting Awards Luncheon 2015 Ohio Memorial Award Recipient

Melissa and Bobby Hart of served as judges for the Ohio Memorial Award. As Melissa presented the award she commented that it was one of the hardest things she had committed herself to. “These two applicants were outstanding to talk to and it was an extremely difficult decision,” she stated before announcing Matt Oechsle as the winner of the 2015 Ohio Memorial Award. Matt is the 20-year-old son of Jim and Cheri Oechsle of Van Wert, in District 12. He is a student at Clark State University in Springfield, Ohio. He currently works part time at Stan-Mar-Dale and travels between classes and during the show and sale season fitting cattle across the country. In high school he was active in FFA, choir, drama and baseball. He began his Holstein career with the help of Jim and Jeanie Tugend of Jeromesville. Calves were chosen for projects, brought home raised and shown for two years, bred and returned either prior to calving or shortly after calving to begin with. A few of those have been kept and developed over the years and shown as Matt Oechsle cows as well. 12 years later, with the “help of my Dad and grandpa Ken Schroer with breeding decisions and raising them….we no longer lease any and now have the means to show elite black and white and red and white Holsteins.” Matt’s responsibilities grew over the years from helping with feeding chores to fitting, field work and breeding decisions. Matt states, “My breeding program and philosophy is simple…..nice legs, great mammary system and smooth with all the right curves. In this case I am referring to my Holsteins” A previous winner of the Ohio Distinguished Junior Member, Matt has served in various capacities of the Ohio Junior Holstein Association. He enjoys mentoring young dairy enthusiasts with many of the families he works with while on show circuits. Matt’s plans are to obtain a business education and continue to work in the dairy industry. 18

by Barb Lumley The noisy ringing of the alarm clock awakens you at five o’clock in the morning and you reach out to silence it, wishing you could stay in your warm and comfortable bed, but you know you don’t have a choice. As you hit the button to start the coffee pot, you are already thinking about the chores that must be done and the decisions that must be made during this day. There will be many and they won’t all be easy ones to make. For some it will be which fields to work in, how much seed is going to be needed, can we afford all the fertilizer that needs applied, do we repair that piece of machinery or try to pay for a new one, do we plant corn or soybeans, etc. For others it is which bull are we going to use to mate that top cow, are we going to give that two year old a second chance in spite of her record, are we going to classify the herd, which calves are we going to pick out for the shows, are we going to buy anything at the Ohio Spring Sale, and more. Every day on a farm is filled with decisions that must be made. These days I don’t have to make all those decisions. My biggest decision to start the day is what I am going to eat for breakfast. However, I find there are a multitude of “doctors” and “experts” who want to tell me how to make that decision and what I should or shouldn’t eat! I am often up late talking to someone on the phone, writing my columns, or watching late TV. Late night TV always seems to be the place to find those doctors and experts who know what is best for all of us. In the early morning hours last week it was a doctor telling me not to eat anything made from grain. According to him, “Cows eat grass and grains are the seeds of grass. Cows are different from people. They have four stomachs, their teeth keep growing, they chew a cud, and they have a spiral colon. In humans grains raise blood sugar and fan the flames of inflammation. Grains are not essential to health. If you eliminate wheat you will lose weight and jelly beans are gluten free”. (I love 26

jelly beans!) Well, there goes my Shredded Wheat, Wheaties, and toast for breakfast! To become healthier I need to order his CDs and cookbooks. Another TV show tells me how bad meat is for me. I should become a “Vegan”, eating only vegetables. You are encouraged to make smoothies for breakfast using vegetables, nuts, juices, etc. I wonder if they have ever tried adding fresh green alfalfa? It is great for the cows---why not for people? But no ham, bacon, or sausage for breakfast! There are CDs and cookbooks available. We have been bombarded for years with articles in magazines, TV shows, and doctors telling us how bad dairy products are for us. “If we drink milk, it must be “watered down” to 1%, never drink whole milk. Butter is terrible for you and clogs up your arteries, so we should always use margarine”. I remember as a child when margarine became popular. It was this gooey white stuff that looked like lard and you mixed a packet of yellow dye into it. Yum!! Lo and behold, they have recently discovered that margarine is worse for you than butter and drinking whole milk is not bad for you! It seems there is always some “doctor” or “expert” to tell people what they should or shouldn’t eat and they always seem to attack the foods that are provided by farmers in this country. The best thing we can do as farmers is to provide top quality products from a clean, safe environment and encourage consumers to use common sense when feeding their families. The weather is holding up hauling manure, field work and planting, and the price of milk is unsteady. Farmers everywhere are stressed and trying to deal with decisions and anxiety. They need help and support as they tackle the problems. Tomorrow night I am going to watch a program where the expert is going to tell me how to escape anxiety, stop panic attacks, find my stress number, conquer control issues, and let go of my need for revenge. I will let everyone know where to order the CDs and books as soon as I find out! In the meantime, I am meeting a cousin for breakfast and I will be ordering bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast with lots of butter, and a big glass of whole milk! It isn’t a difficult decision and I am not the least bit anxious about it!!

Planting Knowledge For The Future ! Ryan Haden grew up in Elkins, West Virginia and Timonium, Maryland. He credits his grandparents with his interest in agriculture and soil management. He has a M.S. and Ph.D. in Soil Science from Cornell University. Ryan said he decided to come to OSU-ATI because he is excited to develop a hands-on and innovative teaching and research program that equips the next generation of farmers and agronomists with the skill they need to maintain the productivity, profitability and sustainability of Ohio’s agricultural systems. His position is about 70 percent classroom instruction and 30 percent research. In addition to teaching Soil Management, Soil Fertility & Fertilizers, Forage Crops, Grains and Oilseed Crops, Ryan will be

advising students in the Agronomy, Crop management, Soil and Water Conservation, and Sustainable Agriculture majors, and coadvising the Agronomy Club. He will also be providing curriculum development leadership to ATI’s relative new Sustainable Agriculture Major. His research interests include developing soil fertility and nutrient management recommendations, agricultural strategies to protect water quality, cover crops, and the cycling of nitrogen, phosphorous and carbon in agricultural soils. Ryan said he is excited about what OSU-ATI has to offer the students. He said that he, along with the other new agronomy faculty at ATI, is working to improve the instructional content and lab experiences so that students will have the skills and experience to take advantage of the new technology and science based technologies that are being developed for the agricultural industry.

DAIRY CHECKOFF NEWS

Increasing sales and demand for US dairy foods and ingredients on behalf of Ohio and West Virgina dairy farmers

Partnerships Ignite Fluid Milk Innovation to Increase Sales To reinvent the milk experience for today's consumers and reverse the decades-long sales decline, your dairy checkoff program is partnering with seven companies that are leaders and innovators in the milk and beverage arena. One example of this is fairlife® milk, a result of dairy checkoff's partnership with the Coca-Cola Company and Select Milk Producers. Fairlife® is ultra-filtered for 50% more protein, 30% more calcium and half the sugar - and has the potential to change the fluid milk category forever. Fairlife® is intended to compete head-to-head in grocery stores against soy, almond and other imitation beverages. In tests last year, it took sales away from those products and in fact, grew the overall dairy milk category. This is an important step forward in revitalizing the milk category by creating new relevance among new types of consumers. If successful, fairlife® may stimulate a catalytic effect among processors and beverage companies, motivating others in the industry to provide a wider array and availability of milk and milk-based products and sell more dairy over time through industry innovation and marketing investment. And that's good news for dairy! The other partners your dairy checkoff program is working with include Dairy Farmers of America (DFA); Darigold/Northwest Dairy Association; The Kroger Company; Maryland & Virginia Milk Producers Cooperative Association, Inc.; Shamrock Farms; and Southeast Milk, Inc. The investment these seven partners are making is unprecedented - 15-to-19 times the amount that dairy farmers are investing - to unlock innovation and put milk back in the center of the rapidly growing health and wellness beverage market. The national dairy checkoff's role is to provide support, insight and technical expertise to these strategic partners who are developing and testing new and innovative milk and milk-based beverages that address consumers' changing lifestyles and needs.

Rosedale Genetics & Priority Products

Mark & Nicky Rueth, Rosedale Genetics Rosedale Lexington, EX-95 2E Lavender Ruby Redrose, EX-96 4E The value Mark and Nicky Rueth, owners of Rosedale, place on genetic superiority and performance is a strong reason why they utilize Priority IAC, Inc. products. In fact, each Priority product is formulated featuring genetically superior, branded strains of Smart bacteria that outperform other strains to provide the perfect combination for a healthy rumen. “We used to use other products, but didn’t see any significant results or performance. When we switched to P-One™ you could see the results right away,” shares Nicky. “We’ve had great luck with every Priority product we’ve used.” “The cows have more consistent eating and our components are better,” notes Mark as he talks about what he sees from feeding P-One™. “We started using P-One™ and will never quit it because we see the results, which is why we stick with it. We didn’t feed P-One™ for a little while and we had some problems without it. We’ve never been off it since!”

Change To Animal Identification Rules at 2015 World Dairy Expo A change in the animal identification rules for cattle exhibiting at World Dairy Expo will be put in effect for the 2015 show, being held September 29-October 3. To remain in compliance with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Animal Disease Traceability (ADT) rule, all cattle entering Alliant Energy Center grounds are required to be identified with a USDA Animal Identification Number 840 RFID or visual ear tag, or a Canadian CCIA 124 RFID tag. USDA 900, 982, and 985 tags will no longer be accepted as identification for animals born after March 11, 2015. Animals born before this date will be grandfathered in under the new rule and are eligible to enter the grounds. This is an update to the ADT rule that was put in place in 2013 to improve the traceability of U.S. livestock moving interstate.

found on the 840 or 124 tags. Animals will not be allowed on grounds without completed health forms. It is also recommended to include the AIN and/or CCIA numbers on your dairy cattle entry form to further expedite the check-in process.

She’s On Fire!

Additionally, animals entering the grounds are required to have copies of their health certificates (either ICVI or CVI) that include the 15-digit identification numbers,

For more information regarding animal identification rules, visit the WDE website, or USDA website.

By Emma Mathews

Hello, Everyone! My name is Emma Mathews and I am very proud to represent Ohio and our dairy industry as the 2015 Ohio Holstein Queen. I would like to thank everyone for the support, words of encouragement and kind thoughts. As I am beginning my first article, I realize that I only have one year to serve as queen, and I can only imagine how time will fly. I am looking forward to attending all of the shows, sales, meetings and other events that I am invited to. For those who I have not met, my parents are Don and Jackie Bickel, and we raise registered Holsteins and Ayrshires on our family farm in New Vienna (D15). I am finishing my Junior year at East Clinton High School and am very active

sales and of course, dairy cattle evaluation. This year, I am proud to say that our FFA Dairy judging team won the State Contest and we will be representing Ohio at the National Contest this fall. Through my involvement, I have learned that much can be accomplished through hard work and dedication. My first experience with OHA began in the Spring of 2013, when Don bought me my first Holstein cow for the Junior shows. Whiteleather Damion 1278 (I nicknamed her Tillie) inspired my passion to become more involved in the Ohio Holstein industry. Soon after, I became a member of the Junior Association. A lot has changed over the past two years! Tillie (who is now a EX93) will be retiring from the show string this year, and I’m beginning to show my own B&O heifers. But I am excited that I just flushed Tillie to Mogul and am anxious to see what hits the ground next Spring.

My sister, Maggie, and I at the 2015 Spring Dairy Expo Red & White Show. My first official duty as Queen. Ohio delegation to the National Convention. I look forward to visiting old friends, as well as making new, and seeing my fellow showmen at the Ohio State Fair. If there is an event or activity that you would like for me to attend, feel free to contact me via email at mathewsemma20@yahoo.com or call/text me at 513-535-8001.

Before I visit your District Shows, Tillie and I at the 2014 Ohio State Fair I will be traveling with the waiting to enter the ring at the Junior Show

Ohio 4-H and FFA Dairy Dates

Judging Contests & Clinics By Korey Oechsle, News Reporter It’s been a few years since I last wrote one of these. Friday during State Convention, we had a successful night as the juniors spent the time together over some bowling and pizza. Saturday morning we met for our annual meeting as we discussed our food stand at the sales, National Convention, raffle tickets and this year’s Board of Directors. The Juniors will have a food stand at all the Ohio Holstein sales held in Wooster. Due to everyones schedule we know there are not a lot of juniors in attendance. However, if you are of attendance it would be greatly appreciated if you would lend a helping hand throughout the day. Your 2015 Board of Directors are Louie Liming, Allison Mangun, Emma Mathews, Mathew and Korey Oechsle, and Keaton and Kinley Topp. Allison Mangun is this years president, Keaton Topp will serve as our Vice-President, Kinley Topp is the Treasure, with Emma Mathews as the Secretary, and me as the Reporter. Jumping ahead a month we land at the annual Spring Dairy Expo. We would like to congratulate everyone on their success in the ring. Friday after the heifer show we had a brief junior meeting.

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.
