The Vermont Agricultural Experiment Station reported wilted grass silage as superior calf feed, with calves on wilted silage gaining more weight and consuming more dry matter than those on high moisture silage. Penn State researchers Herman and Purdy led livestock judging efforts and credited strong show records.
The Purdy family and other stockmen meet during the Pennsylvania National Live stock Exposition at the State Farm Show Building in Harrisburg. Herman Purdy of Penn State, formerly Ohio State, joins his father Earl and brothers Bruce and Conrad from Georgia in the beef cattle judging events as Purdy reputation spans decades.
Conrad at Holly Spring Farms oversaw stock as a bull he managed sold for the third highest price at the Polled Hereford sale and was bought by the F and W Ranch of New Orleans Louisiana. The Purdy family has shown purebred stock in many show rings across the country.
