Standard Oil Man
Will Address Meet
Frank W. Pierce, a director of
the Standard Oil Co. of New Jer
sey, will be one of the speakers
at the Fifth Annual Management
Engineering Conference to be held
at A&M Feb. 27-28.
R. F. Bruckhart of the Industrial
Engineering Department of the col
lege, sponsor of the conference, is
conference director.
Pierce is one of a number of top
flight business executives who will
take an active part in the confer-
Frank Tooke, Tyler; and Ray
Brown, Decatur. J. W. Ridgeway
of San Antonio and W. L. Payton
of Stephenville are hold-over mem
bers.
This meeting, which was the
first annual convention held by the
Texas Jersey Cattle Club at A&M
in more than 20 years, was at
tended by approximately 100 per
sons.
Speakers on the Wednesday af
ternoon session of the program in
cluded C. N. Shepardson, dean,
School of Agriculture, and Frank
B. Astroth, breeder of St. Paul,
Minn., and president of the Amer
ican Jersey Cattle Club.
Dean Shepardson emphasized the
need for giving more attention to
markets for dairy products. He said
appetizing appeal of a dairy pro
duct—flavor, appearance a n d
keeping quality—is important to
everyone connected with dairying.
“We are faced with a serious
shortage of good dairy replace
ments,” Dean Shepardson declared.
“Never has there been a better
outlook for the sale of good Jer
seys than right now and in the
forseeable future.”
Astroth said the loss of many
smaller dairymen is a matter of ev
olution to a degree. Just as large
an investment in equipment is re
quired to milk eight cows as to
milk 40 or more, he said.
He stressed the importance of a
Brucellosis eradication program-
importance from the standpoint of
human health, from the standpoint
of economics to the farmer, breed
er and producer, and from the
standpoint of economics to the na
tion.
A panel discussion of dairy
problems aws followed by a tour
of the new A&M dairy center,
which is under construction.
The relationship of the American
Jersey Cattle Club to the Jersey
breeder in Texas was discussed by
President Astroth at a banquet
held Thursday evening.
A. M. Meekma, Extension dairy
man of A&M, presented 31 awards
to winners in the official testing
and junior production programs.
A luncheon Thursday, sponsored
by the Texas Cottonseed Crushers
Association, completed the annual
meeting. Mineral Wells was select
ed as the location for the 1963 in
vention.
