Maid is an “excellent”? cow for eonformation” and she is carry- ing the service of ABC Reflec- tion Sovreign, one of the bette? known .bulls of the breed. Her best’ lactation was 30,202 pounds milk, 953 pounds butterfat and that was for 365 days on -three- jtimes-a-day: milking. She is in| her 11th year.

Hays Farm International Lfd., which conducted the sale, says in part that Mr. Dennis back in 1958 ‘‘decidéd to dedicate his ef- forts to develop a Nolstein herd that would satisfy his ~artistic temperament and at the same time prove to be a_ profitable venture.”’

GEORGE DARRACH

“The Rosafe herd disposal in 1958,’ observe the Hays people, “provided the first requirement. George Darrach — he had been in charge of the Rosafe herd — “was free-to assume the man- » agement of what has since de- veloped into.an al}*time great herd that has more than satis- fied both the artist and the bus-

iness° man.’ Continuing the Hays people ‘say “George bas proved himself

to-he-one-of-the-top-managers.in the business, and has also the ability to maintain an excellent staff. Rube and George became a familiar and happy: team; wherever good Holsteins to be found, they were there." ‘The first’ major. selection,
