WHY DO BUYERS COME ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO BUY OUR CATTLE? This year we sent cattle to 22 states and Canada, from Pennsylvania to Michigan to California. THESE ARE NOT ORDINARY CATTLE. They have more eye appeal, conformation and good looks to top the market, AND they have gain-ability and performance to bring the top dollar. THEY HAVE MORE DEPTH, THICK-NESS AND MUSCLING IN A MODERATE SIZED PACKAGE. THEY HAVE WORKED FOR MANY, MANY OTHERS AND THEY WILL WORK FOR YOU. 1. Their daughters will make the best cows you’ve ever had because they are backed by many generations of cow families selected for maternal traits.2. Our cows winter on desert winter range where they get no hay and calve unas-sisted.3. They have natural fleshing ability to stay fat on grass. They have to be structural-

ly correct to travel 2 or 3 miles to water and trail 25 miles to the summer range.4. These bulls are wintered in big lots where they get lots of exercise and ½ grass hay and alfalfa and only 1% grain. 5. All bulls are performance tested and backed by our first year breeding guarantee.6. You don’t have to pamper these bulls because they have proven themselves to adapt to all environments. 7. You are buying from a family that is honest and will treat you fairly. GIB YARDLEY IS A MASTER CATTLE BREEDER. He has been AIing for 48 years and has produced one of AMERICA’S greatest cow herds. He will be 82 years old in March and has never had anything else as a source of income.–

The Magazine for Cowboys and Kids

of people that I would say could use driving lessons, is just not a good combination, but we made it. We were all pretty much full from the trip out but we still ate. I had ribs. Best ribs I have ever eaten in my life, just deadly. Our entire group was full and happy with the dining experience. Blake Street Vault is full of history, great food, and an atmosphere second to none.

Day ThreeWell, day three may be not as

eventful as some of the rest, but my feet felt like I had been on a ten-mile hike. The day was an observation day for us guys in the yards and the hill for the gals. After breakfast at the motel, I had eaten enough for 2 days and felt like foundered until about two that afternoon. Then, at about three o’clock, I could sure tell maturity had set in, as we were all ready to settle down for the day. With a lengthy conversation and a pinch of rest, we decided on Toby Keith’s for supper. Dixie and I, not being totally starved, you flat will not believe this, ordered an egg sandwich with bacon. I know, Big Mike at Toby Keith’s bar, and an egg sandwich. You would almost think I had lost it. We all had a great time with a great country atmosphere. Five years ago I would have been there for another 5 hours but darn maturity takes its toll.

Day FourWe were are all starting to weaken

just a little, but there were lots of things going on so there was no time to waste. The Foundation Female Sale and Hereford Sale all mixed together and not enough time to get to all of them. Both sales turned out great but a marathon of things to do. At the end of the day we landed at the Motel restaurant and bar for our evening meal at nine o’clock. I had a great little steak, a few stories (with a pos-sibility of a lie or two), and that ended day 4.

Greetings,This weather is kind of a roll-

ercoaster ride isn’t it? It isn’t any wonder why cattle and people are sick. I know pneumonia isn’t fun, but the Adair County Memorial Hospital in Greenfield, Iowa can take pretty good care of a guy. I know firsthand. Thanks to all those nurses for the great care. Also, for those of you that are interested,

dad has improved a bunch. I think our continued telling him he can’t go home until he is strong enough to take care of himself is working.

“The Denver Trip”:Day one:We landed in Kearney, Nebraska at the Holiday Inn Express.

We really were not wanting to leave the motel for an evening meal, and since the motel so graciously had a manager’s social with adult beverages and snacks, we decided to stay in. Then, to our surprise, our friends from Elm Creek, Dave and Cali Meier and kids, called and said they were bringing supper to us! Good ol’ Skeeter Barnes helped Cali fix up ribs, brisket, pulled pork, beans, taters, and a bunch of other stuff. Needless to say, we had a great time. Thanks Dave, Cali, and kids we enjoyed your company.

Day two:The last leg of the two-day trip out to The National Western

Stock Show, excitement is running high. When traveling with Ross and Sandy, there are no stops when it comes to food. It still just amazes me that Sandy can create beef and noodles running down the interstate at 75 mph (maybe more). Even more impressive is the driver eating it after it is cooked, along with a chicken salad croissant, and for us more hungry guys, an egg salad croissant. Then, throw in some fresh veggies and viola, we are in Denver.

After a twenty minute rest, and freshen up, we were off to our evening dining experience at Blake Street Vault. Yep, I questioned it, too. Me as the driver in downtown Denver with a whole bunch

Guaranteed Genetics to convert grass to pounds, because after all what we are really selling is grass. Add genetics that will more efficiently convert grass to pounds, ultimately adding more dollars to your bottom line than any other trait. Good ranchers ride good horses and have great hard working cows eating their grass. At Cedar Top Ranch we demand both. Pampered cattle simply don’t have the bred-in ability to do their most important function of converting grass to protein. Cedar Top cows do this better than any other program in the country. Hard working cows make hard working bulls.

Incredible Quality ... selected from a continual AI program since 1965. You won’t find a better set Guaranteed!

Day FiveThis was our leisure day, or shall I say cleanup day. This the day

that you go back and make up your mind, if you want this bull, that heifer, which coat, that vest, and that little surprise for my grand-kids. You get the idea. Then about noon you can’t feel over half of your body because at the stock show is more exercise than you have had for a year. Well, let’s say we all got what we wanted. That evening we had what is called “The Livestock Marketers Banquet.” Every year we honor 2 people that have been an influence for all of us.

This year was pretty special because we honored Craig Conover, a man that helped me immensely. There was a whole host of other folks, and Ken Torr, one of the best in the business. Craig and Ken are two highly respected Livestock Marketers. Also honored post-humously was Ed

Meacham. This is the highlight of National Western Stock Show. Congrats Craig and Ken.

Day SixWe were all tired and homeward bound. Let’s just say we were

back to chicken salad, egg salad croissant’s (and darn good ones at that!! Thanks Sandy!) for the trip home and hammer down. We all had a great time.

National Western Stock Show is in the books. Iowa Winter Beef Expo and Nebraska Cattlemen’s Classic are on deck. Please patron-ize these two events; lots of folks go to lots of work to make these events enjoyable for everyone. If any of the Livestock Plus Staff can assist you in any way let us know.

Please keep our military past and present in your thoughts and prayers.

God Bless,

“Concept•Aid® is

the backbone of our reproductive success.”

- John Ridder, Falling Timber Farm

Reproduction is the most important economic driver for cow/calf producers. Everyone pays attention to growth rates and low birth weights. However, if you don’t provide your cow with everything she needs to get rebred, at the end of the day, you are not going to be successful.

Don’t Forget

by Layne C. AndersonPurina Animal Nutrition,

Senior Cattle Specialist

As I am writing this we are just coming out of some terribly cold weather into a week of nicer temperatures. But it seems as though we went straight from harvest to dealing with winter and haven’t had much of a break to evaluate things in the cowherd since then. It’s a good time to make a thorough check of a few often forgotten, but important, components of your cow operation.

Replacement Heifer Pen- In less than 90 days, you will likely be getting heifers ready for breeding. Now is the time we should check our performance progress of the heifers we chose as replacements last fall.

• If your group is under-performing now is the right time to adjust ration energy levels. Usually those adjustments will have limited impact on your feed costs but will have big benefits when we start the breeding season. Over-conditioning can also be a problem. Invite your Purina rep as another “set of eyes” to help you evaluate your herd

Now More Than Ever

by Dr. Chad Zehnder, Cattle Consultant Purina Animal Nutrition,

[email protected]

Calving season is here…..or just around the corner across the region and we all hope for favorable weather after plenty of win-ter. We continue to see strength in the cattle markets with cattle trading at unprecedented levels. Every advantage that we can implement that produces more pounds of calf, is rewarded nicely with extra profit potential. New technologies, programs and products are introduced on a continual basis. Many have a lot of merit and promise to improve the efficiency of beef production. However, keep in mind, that there are no silver bullets and often fine tuning and revisiting the basics of animal husbandry can have a significant impact on profitability as well.

A herd health program is critical to assure optimal production. The success of herd health and vaccination programs that address disease challenges are often measured by the number of calves treated. Obviously though, a health program needs to include a thorough vaccination program for the cow herd and bull battery. Some producers have become lax on their vaccination protocols because they have a closed herd, however, unless your farm or ranch is free of wildlife, there are always ways for disease to enter. Work with your veterinarian and animal health suppli-ers to implement a vaccination program that considers the risk level of your herd and geographical area. Deworming programs also need to be evaluated. Continuous use of the same products and application times may not have the same efficacy today that

replacements.• Cull if needed. Critically evaluate the group one more time

for culling. Feet and leg issues, uncooperative disposition or disap-pointing growth or composition can be good reasons a few of your replacements need to fall out at this point.

Bull Battery- The “Boys” can get forgotten in our winter man-agement haste. Keep plenty of bedding under the herd bulls. As we discussed with the replacement heifers, it is a good time to Body Condition Score (BCS) our set of bulls. If we need to move them up a BCS score or two, it is easier now when we have extra days to improve energy status. Pay particular attention to the younger bulls. They will have the extra nutrition challenge of growth so they may need to be handled differently with higher energy to be ready to go at turnout.

Mineral Program- We are going to ask our brood cows to do a LOT in the next 100 Days…..calve, milk, re-breed!! All of that physiology takes an important sequence of trace minerals to accom-plish successfully and efficiently. Now is the time to move to a complete mineral product that is specifically formulated for high production brood cows. Purina’s Wind & Rain STORM® Formula Products are an excellent choice. Please call on your Purina rep-resentative to help determine the correct mineral product for your herd. n

they did ten years ago. Internal parasites can have significant impacts on gains and efficiency, so updating protocols may get you some extra pounds to sell next fall.

Consider your herd nutrition and the decisions you are mak-ing. Often during times of high feed costs , some cut backs have been implemented to trim feed expenses. Let’s go back and reevaluate those changes now that feed costs are more manageable to make certain we are not hurting performance. Inadequate cow body condition and mineral nutrition can have immediate effects on cattle performance, but also impact reproduction efficiency and can trickle into the following year’s performance as well. Don’t make the assumption that because nutrition costs went up substantially a few years ago that they are no longer profitable in today’s feed cost environment. For example, creep feed prices have decreased the past two sea-sons and because of the increase in expected calf prices, creep feeding may actually be more profitable this year than record returns a year ago.

Now is also the time to think ahead to pasture season and any opportunities that might exist to improve productivity. Producers will need to work with forage and agronomy pro-fessionals to assure they are getting the optimum production pastures. Improving forage production not only has the ability to increase weaning weights, but also has the potential to carry more cows further into the fall and reduce stored feed needs.

We continue to enjoy unprecedented cattle prices. Now more than ever, carefully evaluate management practices for optimum and maybe even maximum production. Your Purina representative is always happy to help you evaluate practices that can improve your economic return. Call on them for help! n

COMMENTARY

A Little Bit About a Whole Lot of Things

by Evan Rayl

Farm and Ranch land prices in our area have slipped almost 10% with the falling grain prices in the past year. This is not going to look very good on net worth statements. But if one has been in the farming or the ranching business very long, they have expe-rienced land values going both ways. Farmers and ranchers with livestock for the most part wish land prices had never got so high because very few of them sold at the high in the land market. If a farmer or rancher had his land paid for and if he sold in the last couple of years, and if he and his wife still have their health, they are sitting on top of the World. And maybe better yet, they are probably laying on a beach somewhere in Florida or elsewhere. Very few of those who sold scored on all three “ifs.”

Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future. ~ Robert H. Schuller

I feel sorry for the two Indian ranchers in the Pine Ridge area of South Dakota area. They had an estimated hundred head of cattle fall through the ice. With prices the way they have been recently, the loss would have been around $300,000. I had a somewhat similar thing happen a few years ago, when I lost only two cows. All I can say is that I was lucky. It was the first snow fall of the winter and the weather reports sounded like it wouldn’t amount to much. The report did not say we were going to get 60-70 mile per hour winds! We got considerable less than an inch of snow, but with the wind, the snow all blew into the ditches. After the storm was over, we counted two cows short. My cows had been in back of a hill and below a large terrace. A ditch an eighth of a mile behind the terrace and six foot deep, was level full of snow. After a lot of searching, I began to think those two cows were in the ditch. One day in the early spring, shortly before calving when I was checking the cows, I happened to ride my 4-wheeler along that ditch. Apparently, water coming down the ditch had melted a couple feet of the snow in the bottom of the ditch and I could see 8 cows feet and legs hanging out below the snow bridged over ditch. All of my cows could have wondered into the ditch. I was blessed to lose only two cows from my group of seventy five!

Where there is no vision, there is no hope. ~ George Washington Carver

Every time I see a report about a UAV (unmanned aerial vehi-cle) which means a very small remote control airplane or helicop-ter, I have to clip it out and save the article.

My interest in airplanes and related flying machines comes from my cousin, who designed the trojectories for coming back to earth and going to the moon. It was fun to wonder about his

experiences back when going into outer space meant going up in a capsule pushed up in the air by several huge rockets and steered by little rockets. Back in the day when all this was happening, everything was totally confidentual, so all one could do was visit with him about which roads he and his wife drove on to to come up here from Texas, or what had the weather been like down there on the coast. Getting back to UAV’s, I think there will be a place for them in agriculture to check on crops and checking numbers and health of cattle.

Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality. ~ Jonas Salk

Reports indicate the days of paying for a good steak and getting a tough one may be numbered. Equipment developed using the new USMARC beef carcass image analysis system objectively eval-uates beef carcass grade factors including marbling score, adjusted preliminary confidentrual grade, and ribeye area. This image analysis system can assess USDA yield grade more precisely and accurately than can be achieved by USDA graders. Furthermore, use of this image analysis system allows for creation of additiional yield grade classes beyond those that on-line USDA graders are capable of describing. Thus, use of this system would allow for more precise assessment of yield differences between carcasses. This system also has the ability to add objectivity to marbling score determination which should help to alleviate day-to-day and plant-to-plant differences in quality grade application. In comparison to existing systems for evaluation of carcass leanness, this system is expected to save the U.S. beef packing industry $15 million dol-lars annually. Moreover, this process allows for more accurate assessment of the value of each individual carcass. Therefore, use of this system will allow beef packers to objectively identify value differences between carcasses and compensate producers appropriately. This will facilitate a clearer line of communication between beef packers and beef producers regarding the value dif-ferences between individual animals or groups of animals. This information will allow producers to better understand the impact of their management decisions on the value of their product. In turn, this information will allow for more efficient production of cattle that excel in leanness which will improve the profitability of beef production and the competitiveness of U.S. Beef in the global marketplace.

Think this is something that isn’t coming, you would be wrong. One of the four major U.S. beef packing companies has imple-mented this system, another is in the process of implementing this system and a third company is considering implementation of this system. Industry wide adoption of this system will allow produc-ers to make transparent comparison of marketing bids between packers without concern for differences between packing plants in methods to assess yield grade.

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

From the Tailgate, I hope that everyone is having a good

start to the calving season. My wish for this seasons is that the weather will hold or at least just be normal this year!

As I am putting words to the lap top (not paper), I find myself in Denver, CO at the

National Western. I believe for this months article, I am going to keep it very short. Because of all the good friends, both new and old that I was able to talk to, I am going to have to go home and digest all the information that was given to me and report back in next month’s issue. I would also like to say thank you to whose of you that have enjoyed reading my article.

As always, if any one at LPI can help you find that next herd bull, group of replacement females or help you sell your livestock, just give us a call. Thank you for your time! ~ Bruce

This is what makes it all worth it!! Mavorik Ossian with a MAB x Lowline! Submitted by parents Greg & Shawn Ossian .

How about a couple funny wedding sto-ries?! We have so many people to THANK for countless things, but my Aunt Lori (Sorensen) Candee was a very integral part of the day. I’m not sure how many of you know Dad’s little sister, but she has that same sense of humor as dad, but a little more “G” rated! Anyway, she had altered/added a lot to my wedding dress and about 45 minutes before the ceremony I had decided I had better attempt a restroom

visit. That being said, there was NO easy way to go to the bathroom with-out taking my dress off completely, so that is what I did. I got back into my comfy yoga pants and jacket! About 15 minutes before the ceremony, everyone started getting a little nervous about me being back in my dress!

I wasn’t worried, I was having a delightful time eating a little Casey’s Pizza that I had called and ordered on my way to the restroom! In the meantime, we had asked that guests not enter through the main doors of the church and so we thought putting a bow on the front doors would be a nice decorative way to keep them shut. Aunt Lori took some ribbon up and tied it on the doors and everything worked great… until everyone was looking for the “belt” to my dress. I wish I would have had a video of her face as she dashed out of the room and back to the front doors to remove my belt from the front doors of the church! It was quite comical and something I will never forget! As she helped me on with my “belt” she just kept saying, “Well, now its fresh and aired out!”

Tucker, my son, was Matt’s Best Man and he walked me down the aisle. I was pretty proud of him! Also, Taylor, my daughter, was my Maid of Honor. Our flower girls and ring bearers, were my nieces and neph-ews. So it was my brother’s kids, Independence (3 yrs) and Michael (6 mos), and my sister’s kids, Isabelle (6 yrs) and Max (14 mos). These four

are just comical and we all wondered what would happen as they walked down the aisle, so as you can imagine, we were quick to send them! I wasn’t aware of a little change in plans with the aisle runner being pulled down until it was too late! So the collision of a couple of ushers, Ben Schmaling and Matt Mensing with all four of the kiddos was about to happen. Ben and Matt thought very quickly and just stopped and lifted the wagon that Izzy was pulling with

Michael and to let Indie and Max step over it. Max needed a little help stepping over, too, but was a champ! Now our last usher, Joel Wendel, was standing on the aisle runner in the front of the church and was clearly enter-tained by the “almost collision” when Indie walked right up to his legs and looked at him. You can tell in the video Joel wasn’t quite sure what to do when but then you see my brother reaching for her. In pure Indpendence style, she quickly tried to empty that bucket of flowers in a panic. It was pretty funny and we are still giggling about all the little things that weren’t as planned but we wouldn’t have wanted it any other way!

I’m ready for a sick free household! Taylor tested positive for influenza “A” and I went into lockdown mode! She stayed in her room upstairs for a week! I took trays of food, drink, snacks to her and she was definitely sick because I would go up to her being snuggled in bed. She is one of those kids you know when she doesn’t feel 100%. About the third day in, she was missing Tuck and asked about what he was doing, and Tucker had said he missed her face. All the bickering was on hold for a short window of time! After a couple more days and talking through the bathroom door to each other, Tucker asked, “If I just hold my breath can I see her face?”

Tucker did not escape unscathed because the following week he brought home the lovely strep throat! Again, separated for a few more days. At this point I’m wore out trying to keep everyone sick free! At least, with a couple days of antibiotics, Tuck was not contagious. He made me laugh when he left on his mask they had him wear at the doctors’ office even, when we got home. I asked him why he left it on and he said, “Well, this way I don’t have to lift my arm to cover my mouth when I cough.” Wow, I didn’t know it was so strenuous!!

So, fourth week of January and I am ready for both of them to be at school. Nope, that would be too easy. Taylor now has an ear infection, which we have never gotten before! So, this is new for us. Here’s hoping that February will be HEALTHY!

As always, please remember our military, their families, and our nation in your prayers! Hope to see many of you at the Iowa Beef Expo and the Illinois Beef Expo this month!!!
