Johnny Uloth, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Phillip Uloth of Walnut
Springs, received the Sears Roe-
buck Foundation aponsored dairy
heifer for Bosque County. Johnny
won this award, which amounts to
$200.00, for the purchase of a reg-
istered dairy heifer by competing
and winning in the essay contest
telling why he wanted a'tiairy hei-
fer, and also by stating his caps
bilities of raising a dairy animal
The program'was open to all Bos-
que County 4-H Club members
whose families are operating
dairies.
The Sears - Roebuck sponsored
program is one of the foundation's
many programs sponsored to help
farm boys and girls get started in-
to a permanent business. However,
.like the other programs tfiey’spon-
sor, the 4-H member receiving a
dairy animal must return a portion
of what waa given him to pay for
the animal received. In this pro-
gram, Johnny had to sign an agree-
ment that he would return a sum
of money equal to one-fourth of
the market value of the milk pro-
duced by the heifer during the
first complete lactation period.
After this obligation is met John-
ny will have in his possession his
registered dairy heifer with papers
and have her all paid for.
The selection of the breed is al-
ways left up to the boy who won
the heifer. Johnny chose the Jersey
breed and purchaaed hia heifer
from A. B. Copland of Stephenville.
The heifer he purchased is about
14 montha old and will be shown
by Johnny at some of the fall and
spring shjOws which will be coming
around spun.
