QUALITY INTEGRITY SERVICE Summer 2015 Serving American Agriculture Since 1963! Lowe’s Pellets & Grain, Inc. 2372 W. St. Rd. 46 Greensburg, IN 47240 812-663-7863 NEW HOURS for FEED!! Saturdays 8:00am-Noon www.lowespellets.com Monday-Friday 8:00am-6:00pm GRAIN HOURS Mon-Fri 8:00am-5:00pm With show season upon us, we are often asked by customers what the best feeding program is for their show animal. As we begin probing them with questions, trying to get a feel for their operation, often times it becomes clear that people want to win...but only by investing the LEAST amount of TIME and EFFORT into their livestock project. If you want to be successful in the show arena, take some advice from Christi Crane of Crane Show Pigs, located in Southern Colorado. She would challenge you to develop a brand-new mindset this show season. Her family is not only big in competitive show pigs, but also in Indiana’s most well known sport ...basketball. And this sport is what provides her the analogy for how to be successful at showing livestock...ANY livestock. “Our entire family plays ball and there’s even an indoor, full-size court next to the kids’ show barn. Basketball is a lot like showing livestock: You’re not going to win a championship without practicing; without being in shape and eating right; and without working hard both in and out of the gym. Folks if your family refuses to put time and effort into the project, then no breeder out there is going to be able to help you. Even if you could afford to buy the most expensive pig out there, your chance of success with that pig is slim to none. And as for the cost of livestock, think of it this way: Expensive basketball shoes don’t make the player. It is hard work, dedication and determination that is going to take you and your sneakers to the game. Do champion players often choose one brand of shoes over another? Yes, absolutely they do. Winners want a proven product, something that meets their demands and is going to be worth the investment of both their time and money. Proven products are used for a reason, no matter if it is basketball shoes, show feed or successful breeding programs. Winning starts with a desire to succeed. Take that and mix in a pig with great genetics, fuel it with proven feed, and quality time spent in the barn and you have a recipe for a memorable show season. There are NO shortcuts. There are NO quick fixes. There are NO substitutions. Don’t blame the refs, and don’t blame the judges. They are simply calling it like they see it. Don’t blame the coach, and don’t blame the breeder/extension agent/ag teacher. Their job is to guide you, not do the work for you. Don’t blame the other team, and don’t blame other exhibitors. Their job is to show up & work hard, it’s not their fault if you weren’t prepared. Don’t blame the equipment, and don’t blame the animal. Neither one will be in their prime, if you don’t care for them. Your success starts with you. I challenge you to have a positive attitude and an athlete’s work ethic. If you want to win this season, start stepping up your game at home.” Christi’s words are candid and true. Winning in the competitive show arena occurs when preparation meets opportunity. Proven products in the genetic line and nutritional feed combine to produce the opportunity. The rest is up to you! If you’re still looking for that proven feed product, let us introduce you to SUNGLO FEEDS, a brand that wholeheartedly believes in “FEEDING THEIR POTENTIAL.” Sunglo® Feeds serves the livestock show industries with nutritional expertise and superior products. They have built their considerable experience in animal nutrition manufacturing by providing products and solutions with a distinctive difference for their customers...and ours!

And best of luck to all of you this show season! Excerpt taken from Crane, Christi. "‘I Want to Beat So-and-so…’." Crane Showpigs. Christi Crane, 17 Jan. 2015. Web. 25 Apr. 2015. GRAND CHAMPION
