OUR CATTLE PLAY A TREMENDOUS ROLE IN THE LIVES OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE

IT’S OUR JOB TO PROVIDE THE BEST POSSIBLE CARE AVAILABLE TO HELP THEM MAINTAIN A HEALTHY AND PRODUCTIVE LIFE

SeaBuck 7 Bovine is an all-natural liquid supplement that addresses your cattle and livestock’s health as a whole. Made from wild-grown Himalayan Sea Buckthorn, it makes for an easily digested and readily absorbed supplement loaded with life promoting nutrients.

Ground-Breaking Omega 7In naturally healthy ratios, SeaBuck 7 Bovine provides high levels of omegas 3, 6, 9, and the new leading omega 7. Omega 7 has shown incredible results in supporting healthy digestive function, obtaining optimum weight, naturally reducing infl ammation, and treating/preventing ulcers. Veterinarians and scientists agree, sea buckthorn could easily become the go-to solution for digestive health.

Spreading the Love The high level of omega-3, omega-7 fatty acids and the vitamin C antioxidant power in SeaBuck 7 Bovine provides protection for the rapidly-dividing sperm cells, supporting proper sperm formation and maturation. A reproductive health boost!

Beauty from the Inside-outSea buckthorn omega-7 has shown to have an essential role as a “building block” for skin, coat and hoof health. Your show animals will have the winning edge and you will quickly notice harder, shiny hooves that are resistant to cracking along with vibrant glowing coats.

ruMinations

2013 Progress ReportLet’s take a step back and reflect on the year just finished. And what a year it was! I would like to thank our 10 Board members, 31 committee members, 5 employees, and many generous volunteers for the countless hours put into meet-ings, planning, and behind-the-scenes legwork throughout 2013. For the moment, I would like to focus on three key highlights from the year past:Jersey Canada Extension ProgramJean Marc Pellerin completed 337 extension visits in 2013. He had one-on-one direct contact with new owners in Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. Jersey Canada’s Extension Program is the very best way to make new owners into lifelong Jersey breeders. An effective Extension Program is key to ensuring that new owners get off on the right foot, and understand the unique management differences between Jerseys and other breeds. It is also a first-hand way of demonstrating the accessibility of our Association.Jersey Canada CommunicationsIn January 2013, we welcomed Shawna Berry to the Jer-sey Canada team as our new Communications Specialist. Throughout her first year on the job, Shawna has worked very hard to update, streamline, and improve the impact of Jersey Canada’s communication channels. This includes the Jersey Breeder magazine, our website, Facebook, Twitter, e-blasts, flyers, posters, and other literature.Throughout 2013, every single issue of the Jersey Breeder was printed and shipped on schedule - a herculean task in its own right! The Publications balance sheet enjoyed a 10.8% increase in revenue over 2012 coupled with a 15.9% decrease in expenses, thanks to new print logistics and workflow ef-ficiencies, as well as digital advertising opportunities made available through the www.jerseycanada.com website.RegistrationsPerhaps the best indicator of the Jersey’s growing popular-ity in Canada is that Sophia Jefferson and Phyllis Harrington processed an incredible 9257 Jersey registrations in 2013! This is 3% over 2012’s 45-year record. There is now at least one Jersey milking in 16.3% of all herds on milk recording in Canada. As the industry trends toward healthy, disease resis-tant animals with efficient feed conversion, good reproduc-tion, and the right components, Jerseys are making their way into more and more herds across the country!The success of our extension program, communications, and registry work proves that Jersey Canada is truly focused on maintaining the integrity of the herdbook and providing tools to help Jersey owners increase their profitability. Con-gratulations on a very successful 2013!

For a complete list of the many things that “went right” during 2013, visit my blog (December 31, 2013).

Rapport 2013 Prenons un peu de recul pour réfléchir à l’année qui vient de se termi-ner. C’était toute une année! J’aimerais remercier les 10 membres du conseil, les 31 membres de comités, les 5 employés et les nombreux bénévoles généreux pour les heures innombrables consacrées aux réunions, à la planification et au travail dans l’ombre tout au long de 2013. Pour l’instant, j’aimerais me concentrer sur trois points importants de la dernière année: Programme d’expert conseil de Jersey Canada Jean Marc Pellerin a complété 337 visites de ferme en 2013. Il a eu un contact personnel avec des nouveaux propriétaires au Québec, en Ontario, au Nouveau-Brunswick et à l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard. Le pro-gramme d’expert conseil de Jersey Canada est le meilleur moyen pour faire des nouveaux éleveurs des éleveurs de Jerseys pour la vie. Un programme efficace est la clé pour s’assurer que les nouveaux propriétaires débutent du bon pied et comprennent les différences uniques de régie entre les Jerseys et les autres races. C’est aussi le meil-leur moyen pour démontrer l’accessibilité de notre Association.Communications Jersey Canada En janvier 2013, nous avons accueilli Shawna Berry au sein de l’équipe de Jersey Canada en tant que Spécialiste des Communications. Au cours de sa première année à ce poste, Shawna a travaillé très fort pour mettre à jour, épurer et améliorer l’impact des moyens de communica-tions utilisés par Jersey Canada. Ceci comprenait le magazine L’éleveur de Jersey, notre site internet, Facebook, Twitter, communiqués électro-niques, dépliants, affiches et autre littérature.Au cours de 2013, chaque édition de L’Éleveur de Jersey a été imprimée et postée selon l’horaire – une tâche herculéenne en soi! Le bilan des Publications a profité d’une augmentation des revenus de 10,8 % par rapport à 2012 tout en ayant une baisse des dépenses de 15,9 % grâce à la nouvelle logistique et les nouvelles procédures ainsi qu’avec de récentes opportunités de publicité électroniques rendues disponibles par le site internet www.jerseycanada.com.EnregistrementsLe meilleur indicateur de la popularité grandissante des Jerseys au Canada est probablement que Sophia Jefferson et Phyllis Harrington on compté 9257 enregistrements de Jerseys en 2013! C’est 3 % de plus qu’en 2012 qui avait fracassé alors un record vieux de 45 ans. Il y a maintenant au moins une Jersey en lactation dans 16,3 % des trou-peaux utilisant le contrôle laitier au Canada. Comme l’industrie tend vers des animaux en santé et résistant aux maladies, qui sont efficaces dans la conversion alimentaire, qui ont une bonne reproduction et les bonnes composantes, les Jerseys se taillent une place dans de plus en plus de troupeaux au pays!Le succès de notre programme d’expert conseil, de nos communica-tions et de notre travail au registrariat prouve que Jersey Canada est vraiment axé sur le maintien de l’intégrité du livre de race et vise à fournir aux propriétaires de Jerseys les outils pour augmenter leur prof-itabilité. Félicitations pour une année 2013 réussie!

As I am writing this, my final instalment to the magazine as Chairman of the Board, we’re enjoying a January thaw after a bitter cold month in Manitoba. It appears to be a real old-fashioned Canadian winter across the country this year.Looking back over the past five years that I have been on the Jersey Canada Board, there have been many memorable highlights. The years seem to have flown by. One of the major 'accomplishments' since I have been on the Board is dealing with purity issues. This has been a real learning curve for all of us, taking a lot of time and perhaps a few 'kicks at the can' to resolve the issues. I can say for sure that it is extremely important to the majority of our membership to keep our Canadian Jersey breed pure.Another major issue that the Board has dealt with has been the changes in the Jersey Canada office staff. Filling Russell’s shoes was no small feat, but I would say we lucked out when we hired Kathryn. Filling the magazine editor position was even more challenging but Shawna has really taken the ‘bull by the horns’ so to speak. This past year we have also had a new registrar, Sophia, who has filled in while Jill is on maternity leave. She has been an integral part of our success and a great team player. When one gets involved in an organization like Jersey Canada, it is not always about the cows. It is the people we meet along the way that make it all worthwhile. As I finish out my term, I would like to thank the many friends that I have made in the Jersey Canada family – friends for life.See you March 21st in Winnipeg!

Au moment où j'écris ceci, ma dernière chronique à la revue en tant que Président du Jersey Canada, nous bénéficions d'une période de temps doux de janvier, après un mois de froid glacial au Manitoba. On dirait vivre un hiver canadien d’antan à travers le pays, cette année.En regardant les cinq dernières années que j'ai passées au sein du Conseil d’administration de Jersey Canada, il y a eu de nombreux moments mémorables. Les années semblent avoir passées à toute vitesse. L'une des principales «réalisations », depuis que je suis sur le Conseil, c’est d’avoir réglé les questions de pureté. Cela a été une véritable opportunité d'apprentissage pour nous tous, en prenant beaucoup de notre temps (et peut-être quelques durs coups!) afin de résoudre les problèmes. Je peux dire à coup sûr qu'il est extrêmement important pour la majorité de nos membres de préserver la pureté de notre race Jersey canadienne.Un autre problème majeur que le Conseil a réglé sont les change-ments dans le personnel au bureau de Jersey Canada. Les chaussures de Russel étaient grandes à porter, mais je dirais que nous avons eu de la chance en embauchant Kathryn. Combler le poste de rédacteur en chef du magazine a été encore plus difficile, mais Shawna a vraiment pris le « taureau par les cornes », pour ainsi dire. Cette année, nous avons également eu une nouvelle registraire, Sophia, qui remplace Jill qui est en congé de maternité. Elle fait partie intégrante de notre succès et est une personne d’équipe.Quand on s'implique dans une organisation comme Jersey Canada, ce n'est pas toujours à propos des vaches. Ce sont les personnes que nous rencontrons sur notre chemin qui donnent de la valeur à notre implication. Puisque je termine mon mandat, je tiens à remercier les nombreux amis que j'ai rencontrés dans la famille de Jersey Canada – des amis pour la vie.Rendez-vous le 21 mars à Winnipeg !

The Changing Face of Dairy Farming

In the Beginning ... sounds like the start of a famous book or was it a baseball game? When I started working as fieldman there were not as many Jersey cows or herds as there is today. I visited a lot of people who had only one Jersey, often for the fun of having one, or for the kids or wife who wanted a cute sympathetic animal in the barn. There are benefits to keeping the wife and kids happy that's for sure. But now the reasons for having Jerseys has changed big time. It is a business decision to include Jerseys, to change the color of the herd, or to start a new farm from scratch. The faces of Jersey Canada members are getting younger (well not all of them). These younger aggressive breeders understand and need efficiency and productivity - and they are making Jerseys THE BREED OF THE FUTURE - now.There use to be few bulls to talk about on my visits, now there are numerous sires to suit all needs. Genomics was an abstract word, now it is a management tool. Advantages of Jerseys were evident a few years ago, but now we have solid facts to back up the profitability of the breed. Visits were shorter in my earlier years, now I have lots of excellent information to share. We also have more prevention methods for milk fever and alternatives for JH1, which we didn't previously know about until genomics came along.So as you can see the breed has evolved in a very positive way and it is only the beginning. A few years ago, people were seeing a young new fieldman with a sympathetic face coming to visit them -'huh' - I guess some things don't change. Jean Marc

sur La route

Le nouveau visage de l'industrie laitière

Il était une fois ... on dirait entendre le début d’une belle histoire avec un beau prince charmant. Quand j'ai commencé à travailler comme conseiller national, il n'y avait pas autant de vaches ou de troupeaux Jerseys, comme on en dénombre aujourd'hui. J'ai visité beaucoup de gens qui ont eu une seule Jersey, souvent pour le plaisir d'en avoir une, ou pour les enfants ou la femme qui voulaient un animal sympathique et mignon dans l’étable. Il y a des avantages à maintenir sa femme et ses enfants heureux, c'est certain. Mais maintenant, les raisons d'avoir des Jerseys ont changé drastiquement. C'est une décision d'affaires que d’inclure des Jerseys ou de changer la couleur du troupeau, ou de partir une nouvelle ferme de zéro. Les visages des membres de Jersey Canada sont plus jeunes (et bien…pas tous). Ces jeunes éleveurs agressifs comprennent et ont besoin de l'efficacité et de la productivité - et ils travaillent maintenant à rendre la Jersey LA RACE DE L'AVENIR.Je n’avais que quelques taureaux desquels parler lors de mes premières visites ; il y a maintenant de nombreux taureaux pour répondre à tous les besoins. La génomique était un concept abstrait, il est maintenant un outil de gestion. Les avantages de la Jersey étaient évidents il y a quelques années, mais maintenant nous avons des faits solides pour appuyer la profitabilité de la race. Mes visites étaient plus courtes dans mes premières années; maintenant j'ai plusieurs excellents renseignements à partager. Nous avons également plusieurs méthodes de prévention pour les fièvres du lait et des alternatives concernant le JH1, gènes que nous ne connaissions pas avant la venue de la génomique.Donc, comme vous pouvez le constater, la race a évolué de manière très positive et ce n'est que le début. Il y a quelques années, les gens voyaient un jeune nouveau conseiller national, avec un visage sympathique, qui venait leur rendre visite ; on aurait dit un prince charmant. Comme vous le voyez, certaines choses ne changent pas tellement. Jean Marc

by/par Sophia JeffersonRegistrar/Registraire, Jersey Canada

FroM the registrars Desk

Most of us know people we don’t think should contribute to the human gene pool, but we can’t do that much about it. Fortunately, if you own a cow you feel the same way about, there IS something you can do!When a cow is sold as a 'grade' or 'cull', the owner is express-ing that he/she is not selling her as purebred breeding stock. If you are selling an animal for fertility reasons or you do not think she is of high genetic quality, you can call the registrar and have her marked as "culled" in the ILR2 system. This means that progeny will not be able to be registered from this animal and her line will cease to be purebred.If you purchase an animal but the registration certificate has not been signed or is missing, please request permis-sion from the previous owner to have the animal transferred into your name. If the previous owner feels the animal is not of breeding quality, please respect your fellow breeder’s decision not to transfer her. If you would like to mark animals as 'culled', or have ques-tions about culled animals or any other registry topic please contact Jill at (519) 821-1020 (ext 22) or [email protected].

**Please note that I have not been culled, but rather TRANSFERRED to Pioneer Hi-brid Ltd as their new shipping coordinator. Jersey Cana-da’s members are truly sensational and I look forward to the possibil-ity of encountering you all again in the future.

Nous croyons tous qu’il existe des personnes qui ne contribuent pas à l’avancement de la race humaine, mais nous n’avons aucun pouvoir sur la situation. Heureusement, si vous possédez une vache et que vous vivez la même chose, il y a quelque chose que vous pouvez faire!Quand une vache est vendue comme une «croisée» ou « vache de ré-forme », le propriétaire exprime qu'il / elle ne la vend pas comme gé-niteurs de pure race. Si vous vendez un animal pour des raisons de fertilité ou vous ne pensez pas qu'il est de haute qualité génétique, vous pouvez appeler le bureau d'enregistrement afin de marquer l’animal comme « réformé » dans le système ILR2. Cela signifie que la progéniture ne pourra pas être enregistrée à partir de cet animal et sa lignée cessera d'être « pure race ».Si vous achetez un animal, mais que le certificat d’enregistrement n'a pas été signé ou est manquant, s'il vous plaît, demandez la permission au propriétaire précédent afin de transférer l'animal à votre nom. Si le propriétaire précédent croit que l'animal n'est pas de qualité pour la reproduction, s'il vous plaît, respectez la décision de votre collègue éleveur de ne pas transférer l’animal. Si vous souhaitez marquer certains animaux comme « réformés » , ou avez des questions sur les animaux réformés ou tout autre sujet con-cernant le registre, s'il vous plaît, communiquez avec Jill au (519) 821-1020 (poste 22) ou au [email protected].

**S’il vous plait notez que je ne suis pas et non RÉFORMÉE. J’avais transfert à Pio-neer H-brid Ltd où je serai leur nouveau coordinateur de l'expédition. Merci pour cette belle année! Les membres de Jersey Canada sont vraiment sensationnels et je me réjouis de la possibilité de vous rencontrer tous à nouveau dans l'avenir.

Sire News from Accelerated Genetics Nouvelles Tauraux Jersey

Clarification to our readers:BLUE MIST GOLDA PAGEANT-ET is a son of GR OOMSDALE TBONE GOLDA-ET, who is in turn a grandson of OA OOMSDALE GORDO GOLDIE GRATITUDE, which means that any progeny of PAGEANT or GOLDA would be considered 0% base animals in Canada.Jersey Canada bylaws state that Jersey males may be registered in the Jersey Canada herdbook only if they are purebred, and their parentage is confirmed by a genetic test. Jersey Canada recognizes a purebred Jersey as any animal which is at least 31/32 (96.87%) registered Jersey. Progeny of non-purebred Jersey bulls may only be recorded as a base animal (0%). Jersey bulls or semen imported into Canada are subject to Jersey Canada’s rules of eligibility for registration. It is possible that a Jersey bull may be registered in another country, but cannot be registered in the Jersey Canada herdbook.

John and Marie Miller, of Miller’s Dairy and Jalon Farms, produce milk from their Jersey herd located just outside the village of Creemore, Ontario in Simcoe County. When travelling to Cree-more, it is a lovely picturesque area where there are valleys, local ski hills, and Christmas tree farms – a true Canadian winter landscape. Miller’s Dairy and Jalon Farms are unique within the Canadian dairy sector as they are the only farm in Canada that produces 100% pure Jersey milk to the retail market. Jalon FarmsJalon Farms has been in John's family for five generations. John Miller’s father, John senior, originally shipped cream and in the late 1950’s he purchased a herd of Jerseys and began shipping milk. All of Jalon’s present-day cows can be traced back to the original herd, but what impressed John’s father the most was how the Jersey cow breeds true to her genetic line.At an early age, John was exposed to the processing industry as his mother's family (Mary Miller) operated Bisset Brothers Limited, a milk processing business in Goderich. They processed their milk on-farm and later made the change to manufacture ice cream and butter. John's great grandfather, Sam Bisset, is credited with being the first dairyman to put milk in a milk bottle in 1896.Marie Miller, John’s wife and partner, was also raised on a dairy farm near Cookstown, Ontario. She worked on the farm and was involved in 4-H, Junior Farmers, and competitive plowing. Miller's Dairy The seed of inspiration is often rooted from deep personal values or perspective. Perspective encour-ages creativity and change, and teaches patience. A few years ago, John Miller attended a milk commit-tee meeting and a discussion surfaced about a potential ‘white dairy beverage’. “It was a very threatening thing to hear as it has always been very important to our family to offer quality dairy,” says John, “I came home from that meeting motivated to consider processing my own milk for people who want to consume nutritious dairy.” In August 2010, John and Marie began their research by visiting three farms in the New England area that produce their own milk. One of these producers was Paul Kokoski from Mapleline Jerseys in Hadley, Massachusetts. Paul mentored and consulted John and Marie during the development stage of Miller’s Dairy. “Our farms are very similar,” says Paul, “we were both milking about 100 Jerseys at the time and Marie always joked that John and I were older and younger versions of each other.”

Since 1904 Mapleline has been involved in all sorts of farming on their 220 acre stretch of some of the most fertile land in the United States. The dairy originally started out as a hobby as they also owned a trucking business, until they made the jump from 35 cows to milking over 100. Mapleline processes and delivers 5000 gallons (close to 19,000 litres) of milk per week with 30% of their sales in local home delivery. “We have a very holistic local customer base,” claims Paul, “they love the taste of the milk and the recycled glass bottles are also important.” The remainder (and majority) of Mapleline’s business is wholesale, where they ship directly to local upper scale restaurants and hotels. Grocery and retail venues represent 15-20% of their sales. Their Jersey cream is very popular and in high demand

as they deliver up to 80 cases every week. “Our restaurant base seeks a quality product that their customers recognize and appreciate - and we do not sell on price,” states Paul, “we also have unique customers such as fro-zen yogurt shops purchasing our skim - and we have started to expand our shipping area to include Boston, where we are delivering around 200 cases of milk per week.”In 2011, John and his son Shawn Miller travelled to South Carolina to a dairy processing facility that was for sale. They purchased the entire con-tents of a fully functional fluid dairy and refurbished various pieces, such as the HTST (high temperature short time) energy efficient pasteurizer, homogenizer, cream separator, milk tanks, filler and bottle washer. They then traded what they didn’t need and purchased a new raw milk tank, ice builder and boiler to fully furnish their facility.In August of 2012, Miller’s Dairy opened up their doors and began ship-ping Jersey milk. From processing, to bottling, to delivery - the operation is fully vertical. “To progress, you should always be learning … or willing to learn,” mentions John, “this was certainly a learning curve for us, but the re-wards are tremendous – having our own product on the market that people enjoy is very satisfying.”Environmental stewards & food safety standardsMiller's Dairy is using a water recovery system that allows 80% of the process wash water to be reused. The water is collected into a hold-ing tank following the first use. It is then pumped back into the plant through a membrane filtration system. This process removes all bacteria and impurities, making thousands of gallons of water safe to be used again. They currently ship 3500 bottles of milk per week and each glass bottle has a $2.00 deposit value. Customers return the used bottles to their retailer and the bottles are then transported back to the dairy to be washed, sanitized and refilled with more fresh Jersey milk.“In our efforts to provide a positive impact on the environment and sustain the quality of the milk, we made a conscious decision to use glass bottles,” mentions John, “they keep the milk colder which naturally slows down the aging process, safeguards nutrients and preserves the fresh Jersey taste!” Customers typically swap their empties for full bottles – it is not a com-plicated exchange. Miller’s Dairy works closely with the stores on order-ing to ensure they do not carry dated product in their inventory.Connecting the farm with the product The Jalon barn, built in 2004, is spacious, well ventilated, clean and very quiet. “A six row installation was much more cost efficient than a four row,” says John, “advocates of a four row will say that you don’t have enough space, but if you regularly push feed, it works.” The cows look very content and are milked twice a day. Calves that are weaning wear nose rings as John finds it very helpful to prevent suckling.The three famous Jerseys featured on the printed label of the milk glass bottles are Jalon cows: Pamela (middle), Mary (left) and Candice (right). As one of their best cows, Jalon Brigadier's Candice has certainly earned her place on the label as she lived a very long life of fourteen years, scored Sup-Ex 90-4E, achieved Silver Award Production and Star Brood status, and provided many offspring for their current herd (10 progeny classified as: 1 EX, 1 VG, 5 GP, 1 G). •Jalon Brigadier's Candice 3c SUP-EX 90-4e 9-6 305 7815M, 450 5.76%F, 318 4.07%P (242-263-261)SA•Jalon Pamela 34p EX-91 (4-3) – Silver Production Award7-4 305 9384M, 435 4.64%F, 344 3.67%P (258-225-249)•Jalon Mary – Silver Production Award4-7 305 8302M, 380 4.58%F, 296 3.57%P (255-213-241)

The Seed of Inspiration - continued

From Beautiful Jersey Cow to Stylish Bottle


Spirit of community Miller’s Dairy supports independent business, as they believe that this is also the strength of the local economy. Consumers want to know where their food comes from and local food markets and cooperative farms continue to prosper. Affairs Bakery and Café, located in Creemore, makes the soup of the day with the beans from their garden and they show true support for their neighbour by using Miller’s Dairy Jersey milk in products that they sell. John and Marie do not miss an opportunity to educate the world on the benefits of Jersey milk. In 2012 they were featured in the Toronto Star, the LCBO Food & Drink Magazine, and they recently received the 2013 Premier Award of Agri Food Excellence. “You have to be open minded and be able to make life altering changes,” says John Miller, “in our industry we are too often complaisant.” Many entrepreneurs would agree with John – to succeed it is important to be receptive, be determined, be flexible, and be responsible.

Chocolate milk: a recovery beverage for endurance sports Nutrition in sports recovery has received much attention the last few years. If you scour the internet you will find a plethora of reports all indicating why athletes have good reason to focus on replacing fluid and nutrients after an intense work out - it helps repair and replenish muscles and maintain strong bones. The Miller’s have a connection to ice sports as their son Shawn previously played competitive hockey. In November 2013, Miller’s Dairy generously contributed over a dozen bottles of milk to the Western Ontario AAA Ringette team who were participating in the Challenge Cup in Sudbury, Ontario. The 18 female athletes, age 15-19, understand the benefits of good nutrition all too well and are preparing for the Ontario Winter Games to be held in Muskoka in March 2014. One beverage that was previously overlooked as a recovery drink is milk. Milk’s nutrients—protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, miner-als and water—are rapidly absorbed and metabolized by the body to produce energy during, and replenish nutrient stores after activity. Flavoured milk has become a favourite of athletes as a post-exercise rehydration beverage. While providing all of the nutri-tional benefits of plain milk, the additional carbohydrates from sugar in chocolate milk is easily absorbed and metabolized. It is no surprise that half of Miller’s Dairy milk sales are chocolate. The Ringette girls described the milk to be “udderly delicious”, “smooth and chocolaty”, “refreshing and cold” ... not to mention they loved the glass bottle and claimed the milk tasted fresher. They also appear to be an educated bunch, as one quarter of the athletes were already familiar with Jersey cows and the high quality product that they are capable to deliver. The Western Ontario AAA Ringette team would like to thank John Miller for donating the Jersey milk which led to a very solid tournament of only one loss in a five game round-robin.

Jersey Facts from www.millersdairy.com

The US Jersey reports, "Jerseys are uniquely right for these times."

Dr. Jude Capper, Washington State University, reported that Jersey cows leave a 20% smaller carbon footprint than any other dairy breed.

According to the American Jersey Cattle Association, reported by the University of

Tennessee Institute of Agriculture, “milk from Jersey cattle offers the greatest nutritional

value providing 15-20% more quality protein and 15-18% more calcium.”


John et Marie Miller, de Miller’s Dairy et Jalon Farms, produisent du lait de leur troupeau Jersey et sont situés tout près du village de Creemore, Ontario, dans le comté de Simcoe. La région de Creemore est pittoresque avec ses vallées, ses pentes de ski et plantations d’arbres de Noël – un paysage d’hiver typique canadien. Miller’s Dairy et Jalon Farms sont uniques dans le secteur laitier canadien car c’est la seule ferme au Canada qui produit du lait Jersey pur à 100 % pour le marché du détail. Jalon FarmsJalon Farms est dans la famille de John depuis cinq générations. Son père, John Senior, livrait à l’origine de la crème et, à la fin des années 1950, il a acheté un troupeau de Jerseys et a commencé la production de lait. Toutes les vaches actuelles du troupeau Jalon peuvent retracer leurs origines jusqu’au troupeau original, mais ce qui impressionnait le plus le père de John est la façon dont les vaches Jerseys pouvaient transmettre leurs traits géné-tiques. Très jeune, John fut exposé au côté transformation car la famille de sa mère (Mary Miller) gérait Bisset Brothers Limited, une entreprise de transformation du lait à Goderich. Ils transformaient leur lait à la ferme et, plus tard, ont com-mencé à produire de la crème glacée et du beurre. C’est l’arrière grand-père de John, Sam Bisset, qui fut le premier producteur à embouteiller son lait en 1986. Marie Miller, l’épouse et partenaire de John a également été élevée sur une ferme laitière près de Cookstown, Ontario. Elle a travaillé sur la ferme et par-ticipait au club 4-H, aux Junior Farmers et aux compétitions de labour. Miller's DairyL’étincelle de l’inspiration provient souvent de valeurs personnelles bien an-crées ou de perspective. La perspective encourage la créativité et le change-ment et nous enseigne la patience. Il y a quelques années, John Miller a assisté à une réunion du comité laitier et une discussion s’est amorcée sur un ‘breuvage laitier blanc’ éventuel. « C’était très menaçant d’entendre ça car il a toujours été très important pour notre famille d’offrir des produits laitiers de qualité » dit John. « Je suis revenu de cette réunion motivé à étudier la possibilité de transformer moi-même mon lait pour les gens qui veulent consommer des produits laitiers nutritifs. »En août 2010, John et Marie ont commencé leur recherche en visitant trois fermes en Nouvelle Angleterre qui produisaient leur propre lait. Un de ces producteurs était Paul Kokoski de Mapleline Jerseys, à Hadley, Massachu-setts. Paul fut mentor et consultant pour John et Marie dans la phase de développement de la laiterie Miller. « Nos fermes sont très semblables » dit Paul, « nous faisions tous deux la traite d’environ 100 Jerseys à l’époque et Marie disait toujours à la blague que John et moi étions une version jeune et une ver-sion plus vieille de la même personne. » Depuis 1904, Mapleline est dans le milieu agricole, avec toutes sortes d’activités sur leurs 220 acres d’une des terres les plus fertiles des États-Unis. La laiterie a d’abord débuté comme un passe temps, car ils avaient aussi une entreprise de camionnage, jusqu’à ce qu’ils passent de 35 vaches en lactation à 100.

Mapleline transforme et livre 5000 gallons (près de 19 000 litres) de lait chaque semaine, dont 30 % de leurs ventes en livraison locale à domicile. « Nous avons une base de consommateurs très holistique » dit Paul, « ils aiment le goût du lait et le fait que les bouteilles de verre soient recyclables est très important. » Le reste et la majorité des ventes de Mapleline sont en gros, où ils expédient directement à des restaurants locaux haut de gamme et des hôtels. Les ventes à l’épicerie et au détail représentent seulement 15-20 % de leurs ventes. Leur crème Jersey est très populaire et très en demande car ils en livrent jusqu’à 80 caisses par semaine. « Nos clients restaurateurs cherchent un produit de qualité que leurs clients reconnais-sent et apprécient – nous ne vendons pas à cause de nos prix » dit Paul, « nous avons aussi des clients uniques comme des comptoirs de yogourt glacés qui achètent notre lait écrémé – et nous avons commencé à élargir notre région de livraison pour inclure Boston, où nous livrons environ 200 caisses de lait chaque semaine. »En 2011, John et Shawn Miller se sont rendus en Caroline du sud voir une usine de transformation du lait qui était à vendre. Ils ont acheté tout le contenu de cette laiterie très fonctionnelle et ont ré-usiné quelque pièces dont le pasteurisa-teur haute efficacité HTST (haute température, peu de temps), l’homogénéisateur, le séparateur de crème, les réservoirs à lait, l’embouteilleur et le laveur de bouteilles. Ils ont ensuite vendu ce dont ils n’avaient pas besoin et ont acheté un nouveau réservoir pour le lait cru, une machine à glace et une chaudière pour compléter les installations de leur usine. En août 2012, la laiterie Miller a ouvert ses portes et a commencé à expédier du lait Jersey. Entre la transformation, l’embouteillage et la livraison, les opérations sont toutes verticales. « Pour progresser, vous devriez toujours apprendre... ou vou-loir apprendre » dit John, « ce fut assurément tout un apprentissage pour nous mais le résultat en valait la peine – avoir notre propre produit sur le marché, apprécié des gens, est très satisfaisant. »Protection de l’environnement et normes de sécurité des alimentsLa laiterie Miller utilise un système de récupération de l’eau qui permet de réutiliser 80 % de l’eau de lavage. L’eau est recueillie dans un réservoir après le premier usage. Elle est ensuite re-pompée dans l’usine à travers un système de filtration à membranes. Ce processus enlève toutes les bactéries et les impuretés, ce qui rend ces milliers de gallons d’eau sécuritaires pour une réutilisation. Ils expédient présentement 3500 bouteilles de lait par semaine et chaque bouteille de verre a une consigne de 2 $. Les clients retournent les bouteilles utilisées à leur détaillant et elles sont ramenées à la laiterie pour être lavées, stéri-lisées et remplie à nouveau de lait frais Jersey. « Dans un effort de fournir un impact positif sur l’environnement et de maintenir la qualité du lait, nous avons pris une décision réfléchie en utilisant des bouteilles de verre » nous dit John, « elles gardent le lait plus froid ce qui ralentit naturellement le processus de vieillissement, conserve les nutriments et préserve le goût frais Jersey!» Les client échangent généralement leurs bouteilles vides pour des pleines – ce n’est pas compliqué. La laiterie Miller travaille étroitement avec les magasins pour s’assurer qu’ils n’y a aucun produit périmé dans leur inventaire.Relier la ferme et le produit L’étable Jalon, construite en 2004, est spacieuse, bien ventilée, propre et très si-lencieuse. « Une installation à six rangées était beaucoup plus économique qu’une installation à quatre rangées » dit John, « les adeptes des étables à quatre rangées diront que vous n’avez pas assez d’espace, mais si vous poussez la nourriture régu-lièrement, ça marche. » Les vaches semblent paisibles et sont traites deux fois par jour. Les veaux qui sont sevrés portent des anneaux au nez car John soutient que ça aide à prévenir la tétée. Les trois Jerseys qui apparaissent sur l’étiquette de la bouteille de verre sont des vaches de chez Jalon : Pamela (au milieu), Mary (à gauche) et Candice (à droite). Étant une de leurs meilleures vaches, Jalon Brigadier's Candice a certainement gagné sa place sur l’étiquette car elle a vécu pendant quatorze longues années, a obtenu le titre de Sup-Ex 90-4E, a gagné la Récompense Argent de Production et le titre de Vache souche étoile. Elle a aussi fourni plusieurs sujets du présent trou-peau (10 rejetons classifiés 1 EX, 1 TB, 5 BP, 1 B).

Esprit de communauté La laiterie Miller encourage les entreprises indépendantes car ils croient que c’est aussi la force de l’économie locale. Les consommateurs veulent savoir d’où proviennent leurs aliments et les marchés de produits locaux et les fermes coopératives continuent de croître. 'Affairs Bakery and Café', situé à Creemore, fait sa soupe du jour avec les fèves de son jardin et démontre un réel appui à son voisin en utilisant le lait de la laiterie Miller dans les produits qu’ils vendent. John et Marie tirent profit de chaque chance qu’ils ont d’éduquer le monde sur les avantages du lait Jersey. En 2012, ils furent l’objet d’un article dans le Toronto Star et dans le magazine à bon verre, bonne table du LCBO. Ils ont récemment reçu le Prix 2013 de la Première Ministre pour l’excellence en innovation agroalimentaire.« Vous devez avoir l’esprit ouvert et être capable de faire quelque chose qui changera votre vie » dit John Miller, « dans notre industrie, nous sommes souvent complaisant. » Plusieurs entrepreneurs seront d’accord avec John – pour réussir, il est important d’être réceptif, déterminé, flexible et responsable.

Lait au chocolat : un breuvage de récupération pour les sports d’endurance La nutrition de récupération pour les sportifs a reçu beaucoup d’attention au cours des dernières années. Si vous fouillez sur in-ternet, vous trouverez une multitude de rapports qui indiquent tous pourquoi les athlètes ont de bonnes raison de mettre de l’importance sur les fluides et nutriments de remplacement après un entraînement intensif – ça aide à réparer et régénérer les muscles ainsi qu’à maintenir des os solides. Les Miller connaissent bien les sports de glace car leur fis, Shawn (qui aide aussi à la ferme) a déjà joué au hockey à un haut niveau compétitif. En novembre 2013, la laiterie Miller a généreusement contribué plus d’une douzaine de bouteilles de lait à l’équipe de Ringuette AAA Western Ontario qui participait au Challenge Cup à Sudbury, Ontario. Ces 18 athlètes féminines, âgées de 15 à 19 ans, comprennent très bien les bénéfices d’une saine alimentation et se préparent pour les Jeux d’hiver de l’Ontario qui se tiendront à Muskoka en mars 2014. Le lait est un breuvage qui a longtemps été oublié comme boisson de récupération. Les nutriments du lait – protéines, hydrates de carbone, vitamines, minéraux et eau – sont rapidement absorbés et métabolisés par le corps pour produire de l’énergie pendant l’activité et renflouer les réserves après l’activité. Le lait à saveur est maintenant un favori des athlètes comme breuvage de réhydra-tation après l’exercice. Tout en fournissant les bienfaits du lait nature, l’ajout d’hydrates de carbone provenant du sucre dans le lait au chocolat est facilement absorbé et métabolisé. Ce n’est pas surprenant que la moitié des ventes de lait de la laiterie Miller provi-ennent du lait au chocolat. Les filles de Ringuette on décrit le lait comme étant « super délicieux, velouté et chocolaté, rafraîchissant et froid » ... sans mentionner qu’elles aiment les bouteilles de verre et nous disaient que le lait goûtait plus frais. Elles semblaient aussi être aussi assez éduquées car le quart des athlètes connaissaient déjà la vache Jersey et les produits de haute qualité qu’elle pouvait nous donner. L’équipe de Ringuette AAA Western Ontario voudrait remercier John Miller pour le don de lait Jersey qui a mené à un tournoi solide, ne perdant qu’une seule partie dans un tournoi de cinq parties.

A Tribute to Rosalea Jerseys Celebrating 85 Years

Submitted by Carol Murphy

In 1928, John Nixon Sr. came back to Ontario from Chicago with a battered suitcase and the money he had earned working on city streetcars. He bought a farm in Streetsville and started a small dairy herd. His dream for Rosalea Jer-seys is still thriving, now in the hands of his grandson, also named John.John Sr. saw an opportunity with Acme Dairy in Toronto, which was promoting ‘Jersey treat’ milk to its customers. John bought cattle from B.H. Bull of Bramp-ton Jerseys and sent his milk daily in cans to Acme, either by truck or train. A red clover seed business was also established. In 1957, John bought 200 acres in Norval, Ontario, and working with his son Bruce, expanded from 20 to 54 cows, which was considered a large herd in the 1960’s. Halton County was a hotbed for outstanding dairy cattle, especially Jerseys. Norval Acres was their next-door neighbour, with Lindale, Rock Ella, Starbelle, and Avonlea all within a few miles.Bruce and Eileen Nixon were married in 1949 and raised a family of six girls and one son. They were all very involved in 4-H, Jersey rallies and local fairs. Bruce was a community leader with the Brampton Fair Board, Federation of Agriculture, and Milk Committee, and as a church elder and school board trustee. Bruce also went through ‘the chairs’ of the Halton Jersey Club, was the Halton director for the Ontario Jersey Club, and held the position of President in 1987. The Nixon’s have been Voluntary Support members of the provincial organization since it began, with a monthly financial designation based on milk shipped. Bruce was selected as Halton County Farmer of the Year in 1988. Eileen was an integral part of the farm and cared for the calves.Bruce and his son John began working together as partners in 1985, continu-ing with the Norval location and expanding to 70 milking cows. With John’s son, Andrew showing interest in the business, Georgetown growing on their doorstep, and problems with traffic, they needed a new place if they were to continue.In 2007, the Nixon’s moved to a 225 acre cash crop farm, with a house, drive shed, grain bins and an older beef barn, just north of Rockwood, Ontario. They built a new tie-stall barn for 100 milking cows, with ventilation panels and all the animals under one roof. John likes seeing the cows clean, showing them off, and being able to walk through in his running shoes. They did not consider any other design. John says it takes just as long to feed the calves than to do the milking.John is proud of their completely homebred herd. Always having 50-60 heifers each year, he is able to support the Ontario Invitational Sale and sales in the USA. Embryo transplant has also been performed for some buyers. “The trick is to get the #1 embryos and agree with the sire selected,” says John. Eight to 10 cows are flushed annually.John Nixon, his wife Cathy with Andrew, Andrea and Brianna are today’s generation at Rosalea and the business is still a family affair. “Ev-eryone needs to know the other’s jobs so we can get things done and allow some flexibility,” remarks John. Cathy looks after the calves and DHI records, Andrew heads up field work, and Andrea is responsible for A.I. work, fostering her interest in genetics and showing of the cattle. Fourteen year old Brianna is active in 4-H. Tours and farm meetings are often held at Rosalea, including a group from Brazil at the time of the Royal.Bruce and Eileen continue to live in Norval where subdivisions have exploded and dirt roads are now thoroughfare for commuters going to Brampton, Mississauga and Toronto. Health issues have affected Bruce’s mobility, but they come to the Rockwood farm weekly, drawn by Bruce’s interest in staying connected to the cattle. The biggest change over 85 years is more cows and more time to spend with them … and this means more production.With the strong foundation laid by John Sr. and Bruce Nixon, and the enthusiasm and hard work of John, Cathy and family, Rosalea is sa-luted for marking the milestone of 85 years in business. Congratulations and we wish you continued success!

About Our Author: Carol MurphyCarol’s love for the dairy industry was fueled by her growing up in Halton County, Ontario - a hot bed of top notch purebred cattle of all breeds. Following graduation from Agricultural college, she worked for the Ministry of Agriculture, a career that lasted 22 years. Carol’s passion for the Jersey breed grew while farming with her late husband at Valleydown Jerseys. A debilitating accident allowed Carol time to rekindle her interest in rural history. She has edited four rural history books, researches dairy and breed history, and collects dairy memorabilia.L’amour que Carol porte à l’industrie laitière a débuté lorsqu’elle a grandi dans le comté de Halton, Ontario – une région reconnue pour ses animaux pur sang de qualité de toutes races. Après avoir obtenu son diplôme du collège agricole, elle a travaillé pour le Ministère de l’agriculture, une carrière qui a duré 22 ans. La passion de Carol pour la race Jersey s’est développée en travaillant avec son mari chez Valleydown Jerseys. Un accident a fourni à Carol le temps nécessaire pour renouveler son intérêt dans l’histoire rurale. Elle a édité quatre livres sur l’histoire rurale, fait des recherches sur l’histoire laitière et des race et collectionne des souvenirs du monde laitier.


Un hommage à Rosalea JerseysCélébrons ses 85 ans

Soumis par Carol MurphyEn 1928, John Nixon Sr. est revenu de Chicago pour s’établir en Ontario avec une vieille valise et l’argent qu’il a ramassé en travaillant sur les tramways. Il achète une ferme à Streetville et mets sur pieds un petit troupeau laitier. Son rêve pour Rosalea Jerseys est toujours vivant et désormais dans les mains de son petit-fils, qui s’appelle égale-ment John.John Sr. a reconnu une opportunité avec Acme Dairy à Toronto qui faisait la promotion de ‘lait Jersey délice’ à ses clients. John a acheté des animaux de B.H. Bull de Bramp-ton Jerseys et a envoyé son lait quotidiennement à Acme dans des bidons, soit par train ou par camion. Il a également mis sur pieds une entreprise de semence de trèfle rouge. En 1957, John a acheté 200 acres à Norval, Ontario et, en travaillant avec son fils Bruce, il est passé de 20 à 54 vaches, ce qui était considéré comme un grand troupeau dans les années 1960. Halton County était un bon endroit pour des animaux laitiers de qualité, spécialement des Jerseys. Norval Acres était leur plus proche voisin et il y avait aussi dans un rayon de quelques kilomètres Lindale, Rock Ella, Starbelle et Avonlea.Bruce et Eileen Nixon se sont mariés en 1949 et ont élevé une famille de six filles et un garçon. Ils participaient tous activement dans les rallies 4-H et dans les foires locales. Bruce était un leader dans sa communauté participant au conseil de la foire de Bramp-ton, la Fédération d’agriculture et le comité laitier tout en étant doyen de son église et commissaire scolaire. Bruce a également fait le tour des positions au conseil du club Jersey de Halton, fut représentant de Halton au club Jersey de l’Ontario et y a tenu la présidence en 1987. Les Nixon sont membres volontaires de soutien de l’organisation provinciale depuis sa fondation et remettent un montant chaque mois selon le lait vendu. Bruce fut sélectionné comme Agriculteur de l’année du comté de Halton en 1988. Eileen fut une part intégrale de la ferme et prenait soin des veaux.Bruce et son fils John ont commencé à travailler en partenariat en 1985, continuant à Norval et agrandissant le troupeau à 70 vaches en lactation. Comme le fils de John, Andrew, démontrait de l’intérêt pour l’entreprise, que Georgetown s’agrandissait jusqu’à leur porte et que les problèmes de trafic s’aggravaient, ils avaient besoin d’un nouvel endroit pour continuer à produire.En 2007, les Nixon ont emménagé sur une ferme de 225 acres de grandes cultures qui possédait une maison, une remise à machinerie, des silos à grains et une étable à boeuf assez vieille, juste au nord de Rockwood, Ontario. Ils ont construit une nouvelle étable attachée pour 100 vaches en lactation, avec des panneaux de ventilation et assez grande pour accueillir tous les animaux sous le même toit. John aime que les vaches soient propres, aime les montrer aux autres et aime pouvoir marcher dans son étable en espadrilles. Ils n’ont pas considéré aucun autre modèle. John dit que ça prend le même temps pour nourrir les veaux que pour faire la traite.John est fier de son troupeau qu’il a élevé complètement. Comme il a entre 50 et 60 génisses chaque année, il peut supporter la Vente Ontario Invitational et des ventes aux É.-U. La transplantation embryonnaire a également été employée pour certains acheteurs. « Le truc est d’obtenir des embryons no. 1 et être d’accord avec le taureau choisi » dit John. On récolte de 8 à 10 vaches chaque année.John Nixon, son épouse Cathy ainsi que Andrew, Andrea et Brianna composent la génération d’aujourd’hui chez Rosalea et l’entreprise est encore une affaire de famille. « Tout le monde doit connaître le travail des autres pour que les choses soient faites tout ayant de la flexibilité » dit John. Cathy s’occupe des veaux et des dossiers DHI. An-drew est en charge des champs et Andrea est responsable du travail d’I.A., nourrissant son intérêt pour la génétique et l’exposition des animaux. à 14 ans, Brianna participe activement au club 4-H. Rosalea est souvent choisie pour les visites de troupeaux et les réunions à la ferme. Ils ont même reçus un groupe du Brésil lors de la Royal.Bruce et Eileen continuent à vivre à Norval où les subdivisions résidentielles poussent comme des champignons et où les chemins de terre d’autrefois sont devenus des autoroutes pour les travailleurs se rendant à Brampton, Mississauga et Toronto. Des problèmes de santé ont affecté la mobilité de Bruce, mais il se rend à la ferme de Rock-wood chaque semaine car Bruce ne veut pas briser le lien qu’il a avec les animaux. Le plus gros défi de ces 85 années est le plus grand nombre de vaches et plus de temps nécessaire avec elles... ceci veut aussi dire plus de production. Avec une base solide établie par John et Bruce Nixon et avec l’enthousiasme et le travail acharné de John, Cathy et leur famille, Rosalea peut être fière de fêter cette brillante étape de 85 ans en affaires. Félicitations et nous vous souhaitons encore beaucoup de succès!

In its 58th year, the All Canadian contest is a Jersey Canada award program that recognizes top cows in the show circuit. Traditionally these cows enjoy the attention and prestige of being named an All Canadian. The following section of the Jersey Breeder reveals the winners and nominees of the 2013 All Canadian Con-test. Nominees in each class were chosen by the All Ca-nadian Selection Committee. In confidence, judges from All Canadian qualifying shows reviewed the nominees and submitted their placings which were then calculated to determine the All Canadian, Reserve and Honourable Mention for each class. All Canadian winners will be pre-sented with an award at the Jersey Canada Annual Gen-eral Meeting.The 2013 Champion All Canadian Cow is PAGE-CREST EXCITATION KARLIE, bred by Derek Leon Page, and owned by Arethusa Farm, Li-tchfield, CT, USA. KARLIE was the 2013 Intermedi-ate and Grand Champion at World Dairy Expo, as well as the 2013 Se-nior, Grand, and Supreme Cham-pion at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair.The 2013 Champion All Canadian Heifer is LOOKOUT GLOW IN THE DARK ET, bred by Lookout Jerseys and R&V Peterson, and exhibited by Lookout Jerseys and Frank & Diane Borba, North Hatley, QC.

Youth & Next GenerationJersey Canada

Meet Tyler Hendriks ... Our Next Generation of Dairy Farming Graduating from Ridgetown College in 2011 with a diploma in Agriculture, Tyler Hendriks had aspirations of being a next generation dairy farmer, but taking that next step is no easy task. On December 1, 2013, at 22 years old, Tyler purchased his uncle's dairy quota and herd of 80 Holsteins. He is cur-rently milking 45 with the remainder being young stock and dry cows. Tyler is currently leasing 100 acres of land plus the facilities. His operation runs alongside his father's farm, Henry Hendriks (Hipcreek Farms Ltd.), home to 80 milking cows plus young stock on 150 acres. The Jersey ConnectionThe Hendriks family became involved in the Jersey breed in the mid 1990's when Jim Sparling took Henry Hendriks to an auction where he bought his first Jersey. Since then, the breed has multiplied at the Hipcreek farm with the current herd being about 90% Jersey.In 1999, Tyler started his Jersey herd by buying two heifer calves at a disper-sal in Guelph. From there, the Jersey herd has grown. Years later, Hollylane Regency Kelsey was purchased at Gary West's dispersal and has served as a foundation cow. Fitting cattle, relief milking, and being a 4-H member has provided Tyler with a deeper appreciation for the Jersey breed and what sets them apart. It is no surprise that Tyler's intention is to add Jersey's into his herd of Holsteins. Next StepsSome of the challenges Tyler faces are in the tie-stall barn where it is difficult to find a fine balance between investing capital in an old facility and justify-ing the cost of 'new'. The Hendriks are looking forward to potential merge policies in the future to create a more efficient dairy operation with the hopes of advancing into robotics and an all-Jersey herd.

"My favourite part about working with Jerseys

is the personality associated with them - bouncy calves, nosy

heifers, and docile cows. Working with Holsteins has given me an

appreciation of the Jersey's calving ease, where you can turn away for five minutes and come back to a newborn

Jersey calf. I also appreciate the advantage of their efficient feed

conversion into milk solids, making them as profitable as

possible". Tyler Hendriks

Future goal Tyler's goal is to one day become a Master Breeder. With a large amount of points based on pro-duction he is trying to shape a Jer-sey herd around profitability and a natural willingness to produce milk without sacrificing type.

DiD you KnoW?Jersey Canada and the four regional Jersey associations across the country work together to ensure that the breed is effectively promoted and services are efficiently offered to Jersey owners. The ultimate goals is to reduce duplication efforts at the national and regional levels while making sure the members are well supported. We live in a very big country where farming practices, herd size and economics vary considerably. While each association is unique in their offerings, below is a list of the types of roles, activities and responsibilities that your regional association may include: -lobby provincial milk marketing boards -be involved in County/Parish shows-place Jerseys in various sales throughout the Region -regional print advertising campaigns-have presence at relevant trade shows -assist owners with lapsed registrations-visit new owners that have bought their first Jersey -follow-up on transfers following a sale-facilitate youth functions (calf rallies, youth seminars, etc.) -annual meetings and socials-host barn meetings and open houses

Vicky has flushed well and embryos and progeny have been sold in Quebec, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. Her first milking daughter Musqie Iatola VIXXS is scored 85 pts with the following record: 2-2 305 7332M, 446 6.08%F, 295 4.02%P (276-314-292) and a Gold Production Award.

His family previously farmed pigs but Paul is the 1st generation to migrate into dairy farming. They currently have no employees but appreciate every bit of help they receive from family.# of Head: 65 Cows in Milk: 34 with 9 dry, 2 herd bulls, 20 heifers. Feed: TMR ration consisting of peas, oat haylage, corn silage, complete energy pellet, straw, bicarb, and fat product. High producing and fresh cows get a top dress.BCA: 223-213-225Classification: 14 VG, 20 GP, 6 G Facilities: Barn hosts 48 head-to-head tie-stalls, 2 sepa-rate bedded pack areas, and hutches for small calves.

The remainder of the cows receive regular semen and poorer cows get bred to beef as there is no point in breeding cows of less quality to Jersey’s.”

Low-Rich JerseysRR#2, 3744 Rd 155, Mitchell, Ontario, N0K 1N0; tel: (519)348-4419; email: [email protected] Owners: Richard and Lori Skinner# of Head: 150 head and milking 55 cows (50/50 Jersey to Holstein) Employees: In addition to family, there are two part-time employees. Crops: 300 acres (owned/rented)Feed: Conventional hay corn silage, 18% ration top dress and balage.Breeding Philosophy: “We like a stylish cow, a silky, dairy cow. An attractive head, long-neck, a bit of chine, long-bodied ... and her attachments have to be strong. We are trying to keep the width of chest in our herd, which is getting harder to do. We don't mind a 82-83 pt. 2-year-old and our goal is a VG second calver - and hopefully EX down the road.”++The Future: “We usually have around 10 EX Jersey cows in the barn, however, last year was exceptionally hard on our older cows and now we find ourselves with a large percentage of the herd being first calvers. But, they are the kind we like, so we see a strong future in the row. We’ve always liked selling cattle and are happy when those repeat customers come back to expand their herd - seeing new entrants selecting Jerseys is also encouraging.”

Rowill Jerseys74515 Perth Rd 183, RR# 4, Seaforth, Ontario, N0K 1W0Ethan and Joanna Wallace tel: (519) 522-0804 cell: (519) 615-0804Bill and Rowena Wallace tel: (519) 522-0805 cell: (519) 615-0880 email: [email protected] and Rowena Wallace took over Bill’s parents’ farm and started milking 30 Holsteins in 1976. A new tie-stall barn for 50 cows was built six years later when they also began purchasing and upgrading to a purebred herd. 1995 was a pivitol year when they started buying Jerseys and, over a three year time frame, they dispersed all of the Holsteins. In 2001 the Wallace’s built a new free-stall barn and expanded to 100 cows. # of Head: 180 all purebred JerseyCows in Milk: 110 milk cows with 90 milkingBCA: 230-210-235 (average of 3.6 milkings per day)Classification: 10 VG, 50 GP, 23 G.Feed: Corn silage, barley/oatlage, dry hay, straw, corn steep liquor and a complete dairy ration in a TMR - as well as a ShurGain pellet in the robot. Calves are fed acidified milk replacer on a pipeline system.Milking System: Two Lely A4 robots installed in May (primarily to solve labour issues).Crops: 350 acres (150 owned & 200 rented). "We no-till fall rye into corn silage stubble, harvest it late May, and no-till soy beans into the stubble. We no-till an oats/barley mixture into fall wheat stubble and harvest it in October. The fall rye and oats/barley are stored in bunk silos. We find the cows perform well, in both pro-duction and components, on the cereal silages than alfalfa haylage, allowing us to reduce our hay ground to just dry hay requirements and grow more cash crops."Breeding Philosophy: “We breed for high components because we feel the Jersey cows advantage is her high component milk. We also breed for functional type with good udders, feet and legs.”

Canwest Dhi (ontario region) annual meeting

(MeDiA releAse - JAnuAry 2014) - The 33rd Ontario Annual Meeting for DHI was held on January 7th, 2014 at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto. Due to inclement weather throughout much of the province, attendance was down, but the meeting was at-tended by approximately 75 people which included delegates, industry partners and staff. Ed Friesen, Chair of the Board, opened his comments by marking the 10th anniversary of the CanWest DHI partnership. The transi-tion to a single organization has been seamless and successful. Mr Friesen spoke about anticipated changes to the 30-year old delegate structure and exploring ways to adapt to the changing environment and be more efficient by working closer with DFO. With Delegates indicating significant support for change, DHI will be working with DFO during the year to address any joint issues related to proposed changes. Mr. Friesen also announced modifications to the resolution process starting in 2014, whereby resolutions would be accepted from members as well as DHI delegates until the first Friday of December. Mr Friesen also spoke about future leadership and the need to have the right people sitting around the boardroom table to make the best possible decisions for the producers of tomorrow. He noted that CanWest is looking to work with other industry partners to develop leadership capabilities that the industry requires. Resolutions Chair, Glen McNeil (Goderich, ON) reported on the two resolutions received from the Delegates. One resolution dealt with building relationships with potential customers and the other dealt with electronic data collection from on-farm sys-tems. Both resolutions were passed.General Manager, Neil Petreny reported that DHI made gains in both market share and Dairy Comp herd management soft-ware sales. Petreny also noted that the introduction of the milk pregnancy test was very well received having provided more than 17,000 tests since its introduction last January. Petreny also commented that both the Ontario Johne’s Education and Management Assistance Program and the 3-year Manitoba Bulk Tank Health Testing Project had concluded. He also noted that CanWest was planning to launch a ketosis screening test for fall 2014. Petreny also recognized long time employees Ian Bull and Bill Grexton (Guelph, ON) who retired in 2013.Daniel Lefebvre, General Manager, Valacta was the guest speaker. Mr. Lefebvre provided an overview of Valacta and spe-cifically spoke about the ketosis testing service available to Que-bec customers. 300,000 samples have been analyzed for ketosis since the test was introduced in the summer of 2011 and nearly 70% of Valacta customers have tested for ketosis at least once. Currently 53% of DHI samples collected by Valacta are tested for ketosis. Mr. Lefebvre also spoke about MUN testing and other value-added tests that could be provided by DHI in the future.

mastitis test from Dhi now inCluDes prototheCa

(MeDiA releAse - JAnuAry 2014) - CanWest DHI is pleased to announce that the identification of Prototheca is now part of the routine DNA Mastitis testing service. This enhancement to the test is being provided to customers at no additional cost.The mastitis service from DHI, now renamed Mastitis 4 (from Masti-tis 3), includes the identification of Staph aureus, Strep agalactiae, Mycoplasma bovis and now Prototheca.Prototheca mastitis is an udder infection caused by a type of algae. This pathogen is considered both contagious and envi-ronmental and is found many places in the cows’ environment. Cows infected with Prototheca also become a reservoir of the or-ganism and, via leaked milk, a source of infection for other cows.Prototheca mastitis can spread directly cow to cow at milking time or indirectly by contamination of the environment with milk or manure containing Prototheca.Although the incidence is quite low in Canada, an increasing number of cows and herds have experienced Prototheca mas-titis in the last few years. Once a herd receives a diagnosis of Prototheca, cows in the herd are at an increased risk for having future cases. Screening cows on a routine basis is therefore fre-quently recommended to prevent further spread of Prototheca.Prototheca mastitis does not respond to antibiotic treatment, therefore early diagnosis is important. Culling of infected cows as soon as reasonable is often the recommended course of ac-tion.According to Richard Cantin, DHI’s Manager of Marketing and Customer Services, “We are pleased to offer this enhancement to our Mastitis testing service. Although Prototheca mastitis is not believed to be a significant issue in Canada, it can be very challeng-ing for those herds with infected animals. This is a nice addition to our services and a great example of value added service, where we are doing more for our customers with the same sample and at the same price.”For more information on the Mastitis 4 test, talk to your veteri-narian, contact your local DHI customer service representative or call DHI at 1-800-549-4373.CanWest DHI is a farmer owned non-profit milk recording orga-nization, providing profitable herd management solutions to dairy producers across Ontario and Western Canada.

grounDbreAKing collAborAtion iMproves genoMic selection for the Jersey breeD

(Media Release - January 27, 2014) - Working together to improve genomic evaluations for Jersey breeders across Canada and the United States, Canadian Dairy Network (CDN), with Jersey Canada as one of its members, the Cooperative Dairy DNA Repository (CDDR), represented by the National Association of Animal Breeders (NAAB), and the American Jersey Cattle Associa-tion (AJCA) have increased the North American Jersey database of genotypes on proven bulls by more than 1,100 through an exchange of Jersey genotypes with Scandinavian based Viking Genetics. The reliability of genomic evaluations increased 1.8% in the United States with similar gains expected in Canada due to the 46% increase in the size of the Jersey reference popula-tion for genomics.The formation of the CDDR by six U.S. and one Canadian A.I. center almost 20 years ago provided the sire DNA that enabled research by CDN, the University of Guelph and the Agriculture Research Service of the United States Department of Agri-culture (ARS USDA), which resulted in genomic evaluations now being utilized by dairy producers in both countries.The new agreement establishes an ongoing exchange of genotypes for progeny proven Jersey bulls in North America and Scandinavia. This groundbreaking agreement will further enhance selection programs aimed at maximizing genetic po-tential while maintaining genetic diversity.The agreement is the culmination of several years of collabora-tion between CDN, the CDDR and the Jersey associations in each country to define exchange terms with Viking Genetics. Gary Bowers, Chairman of CDN comments: “Given the Jersey population size in Canada and other countries, this exchange agreement with Viking Genetics is a positive example of the in-ternational collaboration that is required to improve Jersey cattle in this era of genomics." Agrees Kathryn Kyle, General Manager of Jersey Canada, “This is a great opportunity for Jersey breeders in Canada to increase the benefit of genotyping their animals to maximize genetic improvement in their herd.”CDN is the national genetic evaluation centre for dairy cattle and provides services to Canadian dairy producers and mem-ber organizations including breed associations, DHI agencies, A.I. organizations and Dairy Farmers of Canada. Jersey Canada, based in Guelph, Ontario, is the second largest and fastest growing breed association in Canada with over 1,000 members. The National Association of Animal Breeders, based in Colum-bia, MO, USA represented the CDDR in this agreement whose aim is to improve the accuracy and reliability of genomic evalu-ations for the benefit of breeders in Canada and the United States.For more information contact:Brian Van Doormaal, General Manager, CDN

une collAborAtion innovAtrice AMéliore lA sélection génoMique DAns lA rAce Jersey

(Media Release - 27 janvier 2014) – Travaillant ensemble pour amélio-rer les évaluations génomiques pour les éleveurs Jersey dans l’ensemble du Canada et des États-Unis, le Réseau laitier cana-dien (CDN), avec Jersey Canada comme un de ses membres, la Coopérative laitière d’entrepôt de matériel génétique (CDDR), représentée par l’Association nationale des éleveurs de bétail (NAAB), et la American Jersey Cattle Association (AJCA - association américaine des éleveurs de bovins Jersey) ont augmenté de plus de 1 100 le nombre de génotypes de taureaux éprouvés dans la base de données Jersey nord-américaine par le biais d’un échange de génotypes Jersey avec Viking Genetics, une compagnie établie en Scandinavie. La fiabilité des évaluations génomiques a augmenté de 1,8 % aux États-Unis alors que des gains simi-laires sont prévus au Canada en raison de l’augmentation de 46 % de la taille de la population de référence Jersey pour la génomique.La création de la CDDR par six centres d’I.A. américains et un centre d’I.A. canadien il y a près de 20 ans a permis d’obtenir l’ADN de taureaux qui a mené à des recherches effectuées par CDN, l’Université de Guelph et le Service de recherche agricole du ministère de l’Agriculture des États-Unis (ARS USDA), produisant ainsi les évaluations génomiques maintenant utili-sées par les producteurs laitiers dans les deux pays.La nouvelle entente prévoit un échange continu de géno-types de taureaux Jersey éprouvés en Amérique du Nord et en Scandinavie. Cette entente innovatrice améliorera encore davantage les programmes de sélection visant à maximiser le potentiel génétique tout en maintenant la diversité génétique.L’entente est l’aboutissement de plusieurs années de collabora-tion entre CDN, la CDDR et les associations Jersey dans chaque pays afin de définir les modalités d’échange avec Viking Genet-ics. Gary Bowers, président de CDN, commente : « Compte tenu de la taille de la population Jersey au Canada et dans d’autres pays, cet accord d’échange avec Viking Genetics est un exemple positif de la collaboration internationale qui est requise pour améliorer les bovins Jersey dans cette ère de la génomique ». Kathryn Kyle, directrice générale de Jersey Canada, approuve : « Il s’agit pour les éleveurs Jersey au Canada d’une excellente occa-sion d’accroître les avantages de génotyper leurs animaux afin de maximiser l’amélioration génétique dans leur troupeau».CDN est le centre national d’évaluation génétique pour les bovins laitiers, et il fournit des services aux producteurs laitiers canadiens et aux organismes membres, incluant les associa-tions de race, les agences de contrôle laitier, les centres d’I.A. et les Producteurs laitiers du Canada. Jersey Canada, établie à Guelph, Ontario, est la deuxième plus grande association de race et celle qui connaît la croissance la plus rapide au Canada, avec plus de 1 000 membres. L’Association nationale des éleveurs de bétail, localisée à Columbia, MO, É.-U., a représenté la CDDR dans cette entente dont le but est d’améliorer la préci-sion et la fiabilité des évaluations génomiques à l’avantage des éleveurs du Canada et des États-Unis.Pour plus de renseignements, veuillez communiquer avec :Brian Van Doormaal, Directeur général ,Réseau laitier canadien

in memory of Jim mortson

On January 4, 2014, Jim Mortson passed away on the farm that he loved in his 76th year. Beloved husband of Joan (Curtis) of 54 years; father to Kimberly, Karen, Katherine and Kent; and grandfather to 10 grandchildren.Jim Mortson wore many hats: as a politician, as a Mayor of East Gwillimbury, as a dairy farmer and as a Jersey breeder. In Jim’s youth, he was part of the Mordale herd, owned and operated by his father Cecil Mortson, and was active in 4-H and Junior Farmers. It was in Junior Farmers where Jim met his wife Joan and they es-tablished Echobrook Jerseys, where they raised their four children.Jim was regarded as a great cattle breeder, a good farmer and he had a passion for showing quality cattle. “It was through the show ring that I first got to know Jim and we competed and showed together for many years,” comments Robert Jarrell, “we quickly developed a friendship and had good discussions on a show box at a fair with a shot of rye. Jim would discuss politics, his grand-children, sports and activities, cows, farming, and anything Jersey.”Jim absolutely loved the Royal and had attended ever since he was 15 years old. Over the years, the Mortson’s have led many champions and class winners but the headliner in the show circuit was Echobrook Samares Noreen EX-96, where she was eventually crowned Grand Champion at the Royal in 1981. Although Jim and Joan dispersed the herd in in 1997, Jim stayed involved with the Jersey Breed in many capacities. He was Ring-man at the Royal Jersey Show and assisted at countless shows and sales across Canada. Jim was President of Jersey Ontario in 1985 and served on committees for many years. In 2010, he was presented with the prestigious Distinguished Achievement Award. This award is the highest honour given by Jersey Canada and recognizes a unique long-term commitment to the better-ment of the Jersey cow - few such awards have been given in the history of the Association. The Jersey Breed has lost a great am-bassador and Jim will be deeply missed by family, friends, and by the Jersey fraternity.

This is our first ad and a good time to communicate with all of you. It is four years since we bought our first Jersey and started selling milk.

Many thanks to the staff at Jersey Canada for all your help. Thank you Jean Marc for your visits in our first two years and for always being just a phone call away. Our hard working board member, Mark Anderson, brought Kathryn Kyle for a visit last fall. It was much appreci-ated.

I have had a chance to visit a number of Jersey farms in Eastern Canada and Vermont in the last few years. Thank you for taking the time to show me around and an-swer my many questions. Also, thank you to Russell Gam-mon who continues to be a great source of inspiration and help.

Hello to all our Jersey Atlantic members. Gayle, Keyth and I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible when we host the Jersey Atlantic annual meeting in April. All the Best, Tony

Fern is one of six On Time heifers out of HautPre Fusion Francia that we have on the farm. We also have Renegade, Louie and Vaughn heifers.

Francia has many well known offspring including the for-mer #1 GLPI cow Hautpre Sultan Fame and the present #2 GLPI Hautpre Nouvelle Ére Francia. These two cows are both sired by Sultan. We have Sultan and On Time embryos for sale from Francia.

We would like to sell some of these heifers to farms where they can maximize their full potential. Francia has several other daughters that have won milking awards in their age categories. Francia herself won the 2008 Presidents Trophy for butterfat (remains the 2nd highest record ever in Canada) and was the #2 LPI cow for 2+ years.

Coups de cœur de l’équipeNos publicités favorites de 2013, conçues à l’interne par Shawna Berry, spécialiste des communications, chez Jersey Canada.

Buttercup Beauty(February/March, page 3 and April/May, page 34)“No matter how beautiful an ad, I really think it can only be measured in its ‘bang for the buck’ factor. The Buttercup Jerseys small banner ad is an ideal example of making a small budget work hard. This ad is simple and the full intent is to thank the hosts of the AGM, but using the ‘yellow buttercup back-ground’ from their previous full-page ad provides that extra staying power. You’ve been drawn back to that full-page ad without the advertiser having to pay for another one! Whether it be a background, logo, theme or style, a common design element says who you are!” Sophia

Rexlea’s Echo (February/March, page 12)“This particular AD is my favourite for many rea-sons. It is a pedigree mark-up on Rexlea Iatola Echo from Russell Gammon. Sure it’s gutsy and bold, but advertising is about being memorable – and that is what this AD is! Larry Sheardown from Rexlea Jerseys is not afraid to take risks, is open to new ideas and he always has an amusing theme in mind. How do I know this AD is successful? Rexlea consistently has presence in the Breeder and repetition is important as it helps to develop your brand. It is no surprise that the Ontario DHI progress report had Rexlea as #1 for production in Ontario. His cows speak for themselves and Rexlea echo’s that message out to the Jersey community.” Shawna

Lone Pine Gets Social (June/July, page 14)“I am a fan of Lone Pine Jerseys Facebook ad. The ad is clean and simple, and the message is immediately evident – Lone Pine Jerseys has an active Facebook page! I also like the secondary message highlighting the production performance of BECKY and ELEGANT. This ad is a fantastic example of cross-media market-ing done well!” Kathryn

Garhaven’s Success (December 2013/January 2014, page 62)“I have picked the recent Garhaven Farms AD for its simplicity and color - which really caught my atten-tion. As I started to read and think about the mes-sage I realized that the AD was not built around the achievements of the farm, but rather the success of supported 4-H projects. It brought to mind how com-mitted our Jersey members are in working with and supporting our youth and next generation of dairy breeders. It made me feel good and told me some-thing important about Garhaven.” Phyllis

Grayclay’s Family (June/July, page 19)“The ad from Grayclay Jerseys is one of my favou-rite’s. The four cows in the forefront send a powerful message. The background is scenic and hilly, Jerseys can do well in that kind of environment. Then there are the sale animals. The ad is not cluttered and it sends a pointed message, is easy to read and really nice to look at.” Jean-Marc

La beauté de Buttercup (Février / Mars, page 3 et Avril / Mai, page 34)« Peu importe à quel point une annonce est belle, je pense qu’elle ne peut être mesurée que par son impact. La petite bannière publicitaire de Buttercup Jersey est l’exemple idéal pour démontrer comment optimiser un petit budget. Cette annonce est simple et l’intention est de remercier les hôtes de l'AGA, mais en utilisant le «jaune Buttercup en arrière-plan » de leur annonce pleine-page précédente, on accentue l’effet de la publicité. Vous avez été attirée par l’ancienne publicité plein-page sans que l'annonceur ait à payer pour une autre annonce! Que ce soit un fond, un logo, un thème ou un style, un élément de design com-mun, cette signature décrit qui vous êtes ! » Sophia

Echo de Rexlea (Février / Mars, page 12)« Cette annonce précise est ma préférée pour de nom-breuses raisons. Il s'agit d'une mise à jour du pedigree de Rexlea Iatola Echo, par Russell Gammon. Bien sûr, elle est courageuse et audacieuse, mais une publicité se doit d'être mémorable - et cette annonce l’est! Larry Sheardown de Rexlea Jerseys n'a pas peur de prendre des risques, il est ouvert à de nouvelles idées et il a toujours un thème amusant à l'esprit. Comment puis-je savoir que cette annonce est un succès? Rexlea est toujours présent dans L’Éleveur Jersey et la répétition est importante, car elle aide à développer votre nom. Il n'est pas surprenant que le troupeau Rexlea soit le n ° 1 pour la production en Ontario selon le rapport du contrôle laitier DHI de l’Ontario. Ses vaches parlent d'elles-mêmes et Rexlea en fait écho à la communauté Jersey ». Shawna

Lone Pine devient sociale! (Juin / Juillet, page 14)«Je suis une admiratrice de l’annonce Facebook de Lone Pine Jerseys. L'annonce est claire et simple, et le message est évident immédiatement - Lone Pine Jerseys a une page Facebook active! J'aime aussi le message secondaire soulignant la performance de la production de Becky et Élégant. Cette annonce est un exemple fantastique d’une commercialisation bien faite sur plusieurs plateformes. » Kathryn

Succès de Garhaven (Décembre 2013/Janvier 2014, la page 62)« J'ai choisi la récente publicité de Garhaven Farms pour sa simplicité et ses couleurs - qui ont vraiment attiré mon attention. En lisant, je me suis mise à réfléchir sur le mes-sage et j'ai réalisé que l’annonce n’a pas été construite autour des réalisations de la ferme, mais autour des succès des projets 4-H qu’il soutient. Il est un exemple de l’engagement de nos membres Jerseys : il travaille en col-laboration et il soutient nos jeunes et la prochaine généra-tion de producteurs laitiers. L’annonce m'a fait sentir bien et m'a appris quelque chose d'important sur Garhaven». Phyllis

La famille de Grayclay (Juin / Juillet , à la page 19)« L'annonce de Grayclay Jerseys est l'une de mes préférées. Les quatre vaches au-devant envoient un message puis-sant. Le fond est pittoresque et vallonné; les Jerseys peu-vent bien produire dans ce genre d'environnement. Puis il y a les animaux de la vente. L'annonce n'est pas encombré et envoie un message clair, est facile à lire et très agréable à regarder. » Jean-Marc

“We would like to thank Murray Russwurm and Nicole Ruby-Watt for selling us Fairvista and Five Star Jerseys. Also, a great thanks to Kerry Fraser and Jenny Butcher for putting us in contact with these breeders. Their love for the Jersey breed is evident as you walk through this very well bred herd. We plan to continue breeding quality Jerseys as this herd has done in the past. A fine example of this is our fancy September calf we have consigned to the OIS sale.”

size matters?Economic Analysis of

Dairy Breeds in Canada It is a research study that states: "The Jersey breed is the most

economical and financially viable dairy breed. The smaller size is a

benefit due to efficient conversion of feed, lower labour costs, higher

components, lower health and reproduction costs and lower

investment in fixed assets."
