Byron Bayers<br />

In the past few<br />

months we have<br />

read numerous<br />

accounts of<br />

the shipment<br />

of cattle to the<br />

area of the old<br />

Soviet Union, a<br />

Byron Bayers big share of the<br />

numbers reported are Angus, but<br />

some <strong>Hereford</strong>s have been shipped<br />

from Montana and the Dakotas. In<br />

fact, a recent article in <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

<strong>America</strong> November/December issue<br />

highlights the KazBeef operation<br />

shipping a large group of <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

and Angus cattle to Kazakhstan.<br />

Each of these articles on both breeds<br />

make a lot of people wonder how<br />

much of this has been done in previous<br />

years.<br />

The <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> bull<br />

sale season<br />

started with a<br />

bang, first with<br />

a highly successful<br />

Denver<br />

sale, followed<br />

Jill Hotchkiss by a barn-burner<br />

at Van Newkirk’s in Nebraska. The<br />

Mile High Night <strong>Hereford</strong> Sale in<br />

Denver averaged $26,202 on 8.375<br />

bulls which is more than twice the<br />

average last year! This sale seems<br />

to be different each year, mostly in<br />

the type of consignments. The trend<br />

in recent years of course has been to<br />

sell more semen shares, pen picks,<br />

herd picks and embryos. <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

bull syndicates have been popular<br />

for many years allowing quite a few<br />

people to buy a share of a hot new<br />

Long-Standing Pioneer Pedigree:<br />

Cox <strong>Hereford</strong>s Oldest Ranch in Oregon<br />

By Teresa Cox<br />

Reprinted with permission of<br />

Farm & Ranch magazine<br />

The land where my husband, Smith,<br />

and I live has been supporting Smitty’s<br />

family for more than 165 years. In fact,<br />

we’re the oldest family-owned-andoperated<br />

ranch in the state.<br />

Cox Sheep & <strong>Hereford</strong> Ranch has a<br />

long pioneer pedigree. Smitty’s greatgreat-great-grandparents,<br />

Jesse and<br />

Ruby Looney, came west on the first<br />

wagon train to traverse the Oregon<br />

Trail. They settled in Willamette Valley<br />

in 1843. There they cleared dense<br />

forests to homestead and built their log<br />

cabin on a nearby butte. Later named<br />

Looney Butte, it became the site of the<br />

area’s first schoolhouse.<br />

Jesse and Ruby brought three wagons<br />

from Missouri to Oregon. Along<br />

with the settlers came garden and fruit<br />

tree seeds, tools, medical supplies and<br />

other provisions for their own family,<br />

Value Added <strong>Hereford</strong>s: Eastern South<br />

Dakota Feedlot Specializes in EU cattle<br />

By Amanda Radke<br />

The Davis ranch spans across the<br />

rolling hills near Elkton, SD. The family-owned<br />

operation was homesteaded<br />

in 1878 by Philip Davis, just shortly<br />

after the Civil War. A great deal has<br />

changed since Davis settled the land<br />

in the 1800s, but not the family’s commitment<br />

to raising high quality cattle.<br />

Many generations of Davis’ have<br />

worked the land here; after Philip, son<br />

Jim raised cattle, who then taught his<br />

son Tom, who passed it on to Harris,<br />

who showed the ropes to his two sons<br />

Tom and Joe, and Joe’s wife Tina, who<br />

run the cow-calf and feedlot operation<br />

today.<br />

along with some to give the less fortunate.<br />

Also in the Looney’s entourage<br />

were 20 head of cattle, four brood<br />

mares and extra oxen for pulling the<br />

wagons.<br />

The Davis<br />

family has<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> and<br />

Angus-influenced<br />

cattle in<br />

their cow-calf<br />

operation, and<br />

they retain<br />

ownership on<br />

most of their<br />

calves to enter<br />

into their<br />

non-hormone<br />

treated cattle<br />

(NHTC) feeding program.<br />

The NHTC program has been in effect<br />

since 1989, when the European<br />

Union (EU) and the U.S. agreed to<br />

control measures to facilitate the trade<br />

of non-hormone treated beef, including<br />

veal. There are three principal<br />

components of this program including:<br />

cattle are to be grown in approved<br />

farms/feedlots and delivered to the<br />

slaughter establishment with shipping<br />

documentation that includes the<br />

statement, “Cattle Meet EV Program<br />

After settling into their new home in<br />

Oregon, the Looney family purchased<br />

what is believed to be the first sewing<br />

(continued on page 24)<br />

Requirements for the EU,” and clearly<br />

identifies the animals and the quantity;<br />

non-hormone treated cattle and beef<br />

are segregated at the slaughter establishment<br />

and handled in a fashion that<br />

ensures that they are not commingled<br />

with other animals or meat; and tissue<br />

samples from non-hormone treated<br />

cattle are collected at slaughter and<br />

analyzed in order for FSIS to provide<br />

export certification for this product.<br />

For the Davis family, this means fol-<br />

Byron’s Editorial...<br />

(continued from page 1)<br />

In the 1970s the <strong>America</strong>n <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

Association and the U.S. State Department<br />

approved the purchase by the<br />

Hungarian government, at that time a<br />

Soviet Iron Curtain country, for the purchase<br />

of approximately 6,000 head of<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> cattle. The Hungarians, after<br />

surveying the U.S., found that the cattle<br />

in the midwestern U.S. fit their environment<br />

the best.<br />

A huge amount of <strong>Hereford</strong> females<br />

and several <strong>Hereford</strong> bulls were selected<br />

to go to Hungary. The cattle selected<br />

were very young, with the idea that<br />

the smaller animals would be cheaper<br />

to transport. Part of the arrangements<br />

made with the AHA, by the officials of<br />

Hungary was that the AHA president or<br />

vice-president would go Hungary each<br />

year and analyze the cattle operations<br />

and the quality of the cattle that had<br />

been shipped. In the event the president<br />

or the vice president could not make the<br />

trip an official of the AHA would be<br />

called upon. I was elected president of<br />

the AHA in 1976 and was designated to<br />

be the executive on the trip; I was accompanied<br />

by Lovell Kuykendall, who<br />

was at the time working for the AHA.<br />

We departed the USA from New York<br />

City, flew to London, on to Frankfurt,<br />

Germany and on to our final destination<br />

of Budapest. Because of the language<br />

barrier we were held up at the airport<br />

for several hours. People were going<br />

through the lines that were watched<br />

over by armed guards and each time<br />

we approached we were sent back and<br />

after about the fifth time I was actually<br />

pushed back by the burly guards. It was<br />

at this time that I was taken to an official<br />

in a back room and interrogated. I explained<br />

that we were representatives of<br />

the <strong>America</strong>n <strong>Hereford</strong> Association and<br />

in cooperation with the State Department;<br />

we were here to work with the<br />

Hungarian government on their <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

cattle project in Hortobagy. The official<br />

departed to check us out and came<br />

back with a sincere apology and said<br />

that our interpreter was waiting for us<br />

in a different area of the airport and we<br />

were taken to meet him.<br />

Our interpreter was a veterinarian,<br />

who spoke limited English, but he was<br />

a very fine man and I had great respect<br />

for him. He took us to our hotel in Budapest<br />

where we remained over night.<br />

Of course, our passports were taken by<br />

an official at the hotel because we were<br />

in an Iron Curtain country, but we did<br />

not understand them taking and keeping<br />

our papers over night. Again, we<br />

were being checked out by the authorities.<br />

The next day we were taken about<br />

150 miles northeast of Budapest with<br />

the accompaniment of three authorities<br />

from their Agricultural Department. It<br />

was quite interesting because we were<br />

put in black cars with little Hungarian<br />

flags on the fenders and proceeded at a<br />

fast pace through every little town with<br />

the horn honking. I had seen this in the<br />

movies before when so called high of-<br />

Byron’s Editorial...<br />

(continued from page 6)<br />

ficials traveled through their countries,<br />

but I thought it was just a movie thing.<br />

I was surprised and saddened by people,<br />

along the way, who were at least<br />

90 years old, sweeping the streets and<br />

cutting grass along the highway, I felt<br />

like we had gone back in time 50 to 100<br />

years.<br />

After arriving at the Great Hungarian<br />

Plain, near Hortobagy, an area of more<br />

that one-half million acres, we were taken<br />

to an old farm house which was to be<br />

our headquarters for the next 10 days.<br />

The house was very bare with very few<br />

facilities and we were somewhat surprised<br />

that this was the guest house at<br />

Hortobagy. When we got there the Hungarian<br />

officials immediately had to have<br />

a drink which was a peach-apricot brandy,<br />

that they called palinka. Instead of<br />

coffee breaks we had breaks every four<br />

hours with palinka.<br />

My first job was to catalog all of the<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong>s in Hungary that were available;<br />

that would mean what we would<br />

call scoring. Cattle would be run into<br />

large pens and then put into a smaller<br />

corral for scoring, we did this from 4:00<br />

a.m. to 10:00 p.m. with only a break for<br />

limited food and palinka. I could endure<br />

the long days but not the palinka.<br />

After all the cattle were cataloged<br />

I was then presented with some very<br />

major decisions. The Fleckvieh cattle<br />

that the Hungarians had been using<br />

had been dying in large numbers. The<br />

serious problem was that the herd that<br />

had started out at about 1,000 head was<br />

now down to approximately 200 head.<br />

This was the reason for a major determination<br />

of the commitment to the<br />

U.S. for <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle because they<br />

had learned that <strong>Hereford</strong>s were able to<br />

survive their harsh conditions. It is very<br />

interesting because the good beef was<br />

all sent to Russia; the Hungarians lived<br />

on a basic diet of fish, ducks and turkey.<br />

Before the Russians took over, in<br />

the war, the Hungarians had small farms<br />

and grew grains, ducks, turkeys and basically<br />

Fleckvieh cattle. Since the prewar<br />

Hungarians didn’t have many cattle<br />

or much livestock most of the cattle and<br />

livestock were put into barns at night for<br />

their protection. Many of these enclosures<br />

were a basement under the house.<br />

Communism had basically taken<br />

away from the Hungarians all individual<br />

rights of ownership and free enterprise,<br />

so when the government took<br />

possession of the farms, the farm people<br />

were taken from the small farms and<br />

placed on big state farms like at Hortobagy.<br />

These people that were moved to<br />

the state farm headquarters, made quite<br />

a sizable town, whereas all of the people<br />

who worked at the state farm lived<br />

there. At about 4:00 in the morning, you<br />

would hear all of the tractors leaving for<br />

farming and the tractors would all come<br />

back after we had returned from working<br />

the cattle all day. The food was different.<br />

We ate at a mess hall where most<br />

(continued from page 8)<br />

of the residents of the town ate but at a<br />

separate time. Breakfast was a hard roll<br />

and usually palinka and most mornings<br />

that we were there, not much more was<br />

had for the breakfast meal. Lunch was<br />

usually soup with breads and other condiments<br />

and the head of the fish was included<br />

in the soup. We didn’t have any<br />

beef, because the beef was being sent<br />

to communist Russia for their use. The<br />

locals lived on a diet of fish, ducks and<br />

turkeys, which they raised.<br />

After reviewing their original major<br />

problem of the death of most of the herd<br />

of the Fleckvieh cattle, before the <strong>Hereford</strong>s<br />

arrived, I noticed that they had<br />

built huge barns, you could have probably<br />

played football in. I asked them<br />

about the barns and learned that it was<br />

their usual practice to round up all the<br />

cattle at night, put them in the barns and<br />

close the doors. After learning about<br />

this procedure it became obvious to me<br />

that they were killing the cattle. With<br />

that number of cattle in the barns with<br />

the doors closed they were actually contracting<br />

pnuemonia, not the fault of the<br />

cattle but of the management. It was<br />

my decision to shut the doors on the<br />

barns and not ever put the cattle back<br />

in. This was a shocking recommendation<br />

to them but I was advised by the<br />

chief authority they would take my recommendation.<br />

During this meeting I<br />

was quizzed if our <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle could<br />

stand the winter outside and I explained<br />

most <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle in the U.S. were<br />

always wintered outside and I assured<br />

them their <strong>Hereford</strong>s could live and survive<br />

in their harsh climate. I then gave<br />

them many other recommendations<br />

about various things on the operation<br />

and all but one was followed. They had<br />

a duck pond in the complex and all of<br />

the ducks were dying of disease. They<br />

wanted me to give them a recommendation,<br />

even though ducks are not my area<br />

of expertise. I advised them if they had<br />

a lot sickness and disease, they should<br />

destroy all the ducks and start over.<br />

They did not accept my suggestion and<br />

carried on with the diseased ducks. Before<br />

Lovell and I departed Hungary we<br />

had a good meeting with three of the<br />

authorities in Budapest, which I expect<br />

were the higher ups, but I was not informed<br />

as such during the exercise at<br />

Hortobagy.<br />

There were usually 12 to 15 authorities<br />

with us constantly during our mission.<br />

Each day some new authorities<br />

would arrive and then you could determine<br />

that day who were the higher<br />

authorities by who was talking and who<br />

was not talking. One day, after we had<br />

been at Hortobagy for about five days<br />

our loyal veterinarian/interpreter, who<br />

I had become friends with and had<br />

grown to admire, came rushing to me<br />

and informed me that the authorities<br />

were concerned that we were becoming<br />

too friendly and he would be taken<br />

away. He said goodbye and was gone<br />

within 10 minutes. Within a few minutes,<br />

a new young communistic-type<br />

authority appeared and informed me<br />

that he would now be my interpreter for<br />

the rest of the trip. It was obvious that<br />

he thought he could get some political<br />

information from me and he was very<br />

coy about his approach. At this point we<br />

lost all inside connection with the job<br />

that were sent to Hungary to do. When<br />

the job was done Lovell and I were sent<br />

back to Budapest for our final meeting<br />

the next day. The trip from Hortobagy<br />

to Budapest was much different than<br />

the day we arrived. We were put in an<br />

old vehicle at night with one of the authorities<br />

and two other people who had<br />

requested a ride back to Budapest. It<br />

was like riding with a group of people<br />

that I will call intoxicated and noisy,<br />

consequently I was very tired after all<br />

of the long day and short nights. No<br />

more black cars and honking through<br />

the streets it was obvious that we were<br />

being dismissed. However, we were<br />

treated well by the authorities at our<br />

meeting the next day in Budapest and<br />

we were then dismissed from the job by<br />

the authorities. We were on our own.<br />

Another group of <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle<br />

were soon arriving by plane in Madrid<br />

for Spanish breeders. Lovell immediately<br />

left Budapest to meet the cattle on<br />

arrival in Madrid which left me alone<br />

the next day until I was later able to<br />

meet him at Madrid’s Great Expo. I later<br />

learned that the <strong>America</strong>n <strong>Hereford</strong>s<br />

did a great job of living out the winters<br />

in the harsh environment of Hortobagy.<br />

One of the authorities, many years later,<br />

asked about Mr. Bayers and how he<br />

was, he said, “He was very nice man<br />

and did a very good job but no can<br />

drink!” The Hungarians were very nice<br />

people and we were treated well but I<br />

always felt bad that they were depressed<br />

by the Russian invasion and occupation<br />

and I often look back and wonder what<br />

Hungary is like now that it is independent<br />

again. I am sure the <strong>Hereford</strong>s are<br />

still doing well there. This all occurred<br />

35 years ago and I wish I could return<br />

to revisit our check through Hungary.<br />

Some of the authorities that we dealt<br />

with have run for higher office in Hungary<br />

in the past 10 years and I do not<br />

know if they were successful or not. If<br />

they were Hungary still has communist<br />

influence.<br />

After another hectic time at the airport<br />

upon departure and a big young<br />

guard with an automatic machine gun<br />

going through all of my bags, I was<br />

finally cleared to leave the country. I<br />

flew to Milan and on to Madrid, and<br />

met my wife, Pauline, who had flown<br />

over the pond to London and then down<br />

to Madrid. We reconnected with Lovell<br />

in Madrid, who was having a new set<br />

of problems. A 747 plane load of <strong>Hereford</strong>s<br />

had arrived in Madrid and the paperwork<br />

was not adequate for the authorities<br />

to unload the cattle. It seems<br />

as though the mayor of a small town<br />

in Arizona had signed the papers and<br />

the Spanish authorities could not find<br />

the town that was reported to me to be<br />

Advantage<br />

Lower Feed Costs -<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> cows forage longer,<br />

winter on less expensive feed and<br />

maintain condition better. <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

and <strong>Hereford</strong> X Feeder calves have<br />

better feed conversion.<br />

Better Temperament -<br />

None of us are getting younger<br />

or running faster and cattle that<br />

bounce off the fences or chase<br />

you over them are not needed.<br />

Longevity - Nothing lasts<br />

longer than a good <strong>Hereford</strong> Bull<br />

or Cow. This will lower your bull<br />

replacement cost and the need to<br />

keep as many heifers.<br />

The Anderson <strong>Hereford</strong> Advantage<br />

Outstanding Cowherd - We demand our cows work for us,<br />

not us for them. Like you, we do not have time for poor udders,<br />

poor feet, poor performance or poor dispositions.<br />

Value, Quality & Quantity - Over 350 Registered Females<br />

are being bred annually. Cattle are culled hard with only about 50<br />

bulls sold Annually. That means that only 30%-35% of the bull calves<br />

born make it as bulls and all of them are offered in this sale.<br />

Ranch Raised for Ranch Conditions - We have never<br />

chased fads or lost sight of what makes a rancher money. We breed<br />

for calving ease, mothering ability, easy fleshing, soundness,<br />

fertility, longevity, natural thickness and carcass traits. We use our<br />

eye, performance records, ultra sound and the best genetics<br />

available.<br />

Sight Unseen Program - Visit with us about your needs<br />

and we guarantee the best possible bull for the best possible price. If<br />

you don’t like him we keep him.<br />

a town of 10 people or so. Lovell told<br />

the authorities they needed to unload<br />

the cattle by the end of the day or the<br />

cattle would die on the airplane but the<br />

authorities didn’t seem to care. Lovell<br />

knew a breeder in Spain that was close<br />

to the dictator, Franco, and shortly after<br />

the breeder called the dictator the cattle<br />

were unloaded. After that Lovell headed<br />

back to the U.S. and on to Kansas City.<br />

After taking in the Spanish version of<br />

north. We were then on our way home.<br />

flew on our approach low over the Statue<br />

eyes as the 747’s wheels touched down<br />

and we were back again in the good old<br />

USA. People who have never been to<br />

other parts of the world or to countries<br />

that were under the old Soviet regime<br />

don’t realize what we have in this country.<br />

Sure we have faults but there is no<br />

other country like this country.<br />

As you look back on the monumental<br />

deal some 35 years ago, things have<br />

changed. To start with the Soviet Union<br />

some of the cattle but the Hungarians<br />

only a little technical advice from us.<br />

This is a great tribute to the <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

breed.<br />

I received a call the first week in January<br />

from Craig Huffhines, Executive<br />

Vice President of the <strong>America</strong>n <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

Association. After a congenial few<br />

minutes about the <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle industry,<br />

Craig got to the point. Craig felt<br />

like I had not fully covered the problems<br />

that people were expressing about the<br />

new DNA requirement on the “walking<br />

bulls.” I told Craig that many people in<br />

the industry read various publications<br />

that cover things in the <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle<br />

industry in the US, the two larger ones<br />

are <strong>Hereford</strong> <strong>America</strong> and <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

World. Since I only reported on what<br />

had been relayed to me by some breeders<br />

I did not cover all of the issues in the<br />

AHA board decision. I asked for, and<br />

Craig agreed, that he would send me a<br />

question and answer list on the conditions<br />

involved in the new AHA mandate.<br />

Craig told me he would get that<br />

released to me in the next few days, he<br />

did and it follows this editorial.<br />

AHA’s DNA Policy for Walking Herd Sires<br />

By Craig Huffhines<br />

Executive Vice President of AHA<br />

In the last issue of <strong>Hereford</strong> <strong>America</strong>,<br />

Byron wrote a few comments regarding<br />

the new AHA Board’s policy for requiring<br />

DNA on all walking herd sires in the<br />

future. There has been some confusion<br />

as to what the new policy means, and<br />

therefore it’s my objective to explain<br />

the purpose and the procedure behind<br />

this new policy. The following are frequently<br />

asked questions regarding the<br />

new direction which I hope will give<br />

breeders a much better understanding<br />

of the policy.<br />

Question 1: What is the purpose of<br />

the new DNA Sire Policy? The seedstock<br />

industry estimates that there is<br />

anywhere from a 5% to a 15% error rate<br />

in pedigrees, most of which are due to<br />

sire misidentification. There are a host<br />

of reasons for such mix ups; frankly it’s<br />

easy to do. The new policy is designed<br />

to make quick corrections in pedigrees<br />

through DNA evidence that can quickly<br />

give us an accurate answer as to who the<br />

correct sire is on a mislabeled pedigree.<br />

Question 2: How does this policy differ<br />

from what AHA has required in the<br />

past?<br />

From the beginnings of the registered<br />

pedigree livestock business, the <strong>America</strong>n<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> Association has relied<br />

solely on the record keeping of individual<br />

breeders to determine the accuracy of<br />

pedigrees. The AHA has in the past only<br />

required AI sires to be confirmed back to<br />

parents through blood typing and in recent<br />

years DNA profiling. As AI and ET<br />

use has increased over the last decade,<br />

breeders and AHA staff have found a<br />

(continued from page 16)<br />

significant error rate in pedigrees which<br />

are for the most part corrected once we<br />

have an understanding of the sire possibilities.<br />

If the probable sires have DNA<br />

profiles on file then the problem can<br />

be resolved very quickly. Many times<br />

AHA can not determine the correct sire<br />

which causes a great deal of marketing<br />

problems particularly if a bull has been<br />

used across more than one owner. Having<br />

every walking herd sire on file will<br />

solve nearly all of the questions regarding<br />

pedigrees once an error has been<br />

detected.<br />

Question 3: What is the difference<br />

between a DNA profile and parentage<br />

verification? A DNA profile is simply<br />

one test on an individual animal that<br />

identifies the unique DNA markers that<br />

basically fingerprints the animal. A parentage<br />

test would create a DNA profile<br />

not only on an individual animal but<br />

also on the sire and dam of the individual<br />

that would confirm or deny the accuracy<br />

of the pedigree. The new policy<br />

does not require parentage verification,<br />

but only an individual DNA profile on<br />

the herd sires.<br />

Question 4: Will every bull calf that<br />

is registered be required to have a DNA<br />

profile on file? No, not at all! This is<br />

the most misunderstood fact of the new<br />

policy. Only bulls that will become herd<br />

sires and thereby sire registered calves<br />

will be required to be DNA profiled.<br />

Question 5: What about the range<br />

bulls I’m selling to commercial cattlemen?<br />

Range bulls will not be required<br />

to be tested if they are simply going into<br />

a commercial herd. However, if that<br />

range bull is pulled out of a commercial<br />

herd and used as a sire to produce registered<br />

progeny, then he will be required<br />

to be DNA profiled.<br />

Question 6: When will the new policy<br />

take effect and what age of animals<br />

will be required to be DNA profiled?<br />

Only bulls born after January 1, <strong>2011</strong>, in<br />

other words bulls being born this spring<br />

calving season and beyond that become<br />

seedstock herd bulls will be required to<br />

be DNA profiled. All bulls born prior to<br />

this past January 1, <strong>2011</strong> are grandfathered<br />

in and will not be required to be<br />

DNA profiled unless they become permitted<br />

AI sires. Bull calves born today<br />

will likely not be in production for at<br />

least a year, and their calves are at least<br />

two years away from being born. So the<br />

AHA has provided some lead time.<br />

Question 7: What will this cost a<br />

breeder? Today, the cost for a DNA profile<br />

is $32. This includes a status report<br />

for all three known genetic abnormalities.<br />

Question 8: Has any other breed association<br />

adopted this policy? The Canadian<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> Association adopted<br />

this policy five years ago. Today, reports<br />

from CHA management and breeders<br />

confirm that the policy has made life<br />

much easier for breeders by effectively<br />

resolving pedigree mistakes in a rapid<br />

and very inexpensive manner.<br />

Question 9: What other benefits<br />

might come from this policy? As DNA<br />

technology advances in the coming<br />

years, DNA tests may be adopted to enhance<br />

the current national cattle evaluation.<br />

The AHA is collaborating with<br />

scientist to discover gene markers that<br />

might add accuracy to the EPDs of different<br />

economically relevant traits. If<br />

this comes to fruition, then having DNA<br />

samples on file will make it easier for<br />

breeders to go back and retest herd sires<br />

for various informative DNA markers.<br />

Thank you to our friends from the north<br />

for attending and participating! At least<br />

one of the higher selling bulls, Lot 18<br />

from Atkins and Delaney sold to Remitall<br />

West, Dorbay Polled <strong>Hereford</strong>s and<br />

Harvie Ranching all of Canada, for<br />

$21,000. Congratulations to all.<br />

Obviously there were many other<br />

highlights and high sellers in the Mile<br />

High Sale. Hopefully details will be<br />

available by next issue as this reporter<br />

just can’t write that fast when they list<br />

more than 5 buyers!<br />

While the Denver sale is a different<br />

type of sale, most breeders at least in the<br />

Dakotas and Midwest, anxiously await<br />

the Van Newkirk sale in Nebraska, the<br />

Monday following Denver. It is the first<br />

big production sale of the year and sets<br />

the tone for the upcoming <strong>February</strong> and<br />

March bull sales in the area. It certainly<br />

didn’t disappoint this year with an average<br />

over $5,343 on 98 two-year-old<br />

bulls and $5,060 on 21 bull calves! (See<br />

the report in this issue.) This seems to<br />

be carrying on the encouraging sale results<br />

from fall.<br />

I was encouraged by what I saw in The<br />

Yards at Denver this year. The quality<br />

of bulls and heifers was outstanding. By<br />

the time the <strong>Hereford</strong> events started, the<br />

weather in Denver got nice and seemed<br />

to increase the attendance in The Yards.<br />

To wrap up for this month, I sadly<br />

report the loss of Larry Vroman, Taylor’s<br />

dad. As many of you know Taylor<br />

has worked for us at the paper as our<br />

right hand man for about 10 years. His<br />

dad Larry passed away on January 18<br />

from cancer. Larry was a true cowboy<br />

in every sense of the word and a gifted<br />

horseman, roper and teacher. We will all<br />

miss him.<br />

Although the extra paperwork<br />

and annual inspections can be tedious<br />

at times, the value they have added to<br />

their fat cattle in the last 15 years is<br />

undeniable.<br />

“When we started selling cattle to<br />

the EU 15 years ago, we hoped to add<br />

value to our calves and find a new<br />

market for our non-hormone treated<br />

animals,” said Tom Davis. “Back then,<br />

we were the largest operator in the<br />

NHTC program.”<br />

Although for generations the operation<br />

consisted of 100% commercial<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong>s, many of their feedlots are<br />

filled with black-hided cattle, but the<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> and black baldies are still a<br />

part of the program today, with <strong>Hereford</strong>s<br />

making up 40% of the herd.<br />

“Our <strong>Hereford</strong>-Angus cross makes<br />

those great black baldies, which we<br />

feel do well on the grid,” said Davis.<br />

“Certified Angus Beef (CAB) has done<br />

a great job of marketing, and it’s another<br />

way to add value to our calves.<br />

However, there is no doubt that <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

cows are easy-keepers. They are<br />

tough and can handle the cold conditions<br />

of South Dakota. Our grandparents<br />

enjoyed <strong>Hereford</strong> cattle, and so do<br />

we.”<br />

Recently, a load of steers graded<br />

99% USDA Prime at Greater Omaha<br />

Packing (GOP), where the Davis cattle<br />

are contracted through. When they first<br />

started selling their beef to the EU,<br />

they partnered with Food Company of<br />

Idaho. This partnership lasted for two<br />

years, and then they started working<br />

with MetaFoods, a food importer and<br />

exporter that markets high quality USA<br />

beef and value-added food service<br />

items for distribution.<br />

USDA,” said Davis. “I always tell them<br />

the first year is the hardest. Inspections<br />

aren’t cheap. You have to keep records<br />

and be able to prove the medical work,<br />

the nutrition program and what pen the<br />

animal is in.”<br />

Despite the challenges, Davis credits<br />

this program for helping grow their<br />

operation.<br />

“This program has helped us grow<br />

and market more of our grain through<br />

our livestock,” said Davis, whose family<br />

also raises corn, beans, wheat, oats<br />

and alfalfa hay. “It’s not always easy<br />

though. When we started, the packers<br />

wanted three truck loads, and now they<br />

want seven. Someday, that requirement<br />

might grow to 10, and we will have to<br />

try to grow with it.”<br />

In addition to retaining their own<br />

calves for the feedlot, they also buy<br />

many loads of cattle to fill their lots<br />

from Montana and Nebraska. They<br />

purchase a great deal of cattle through<br />

video auction, as well. Interestingly,<br />

when they started this partnership 15<br />

years ago, they didn’t have a feedlot.<br />

Today, they operate three small facilities.<br />

One is a mono-slope building, and<br />

they plan to build another one in the<br />

upcoming years.<br />

“We have found that the cattle in<br />

the mono-slope building have better<br />

gains,” said Davis. “They stay out of<br />

the cold elements and have more consistent<br />

inputs. Plus, it’s easier on the<br />

person doing the feeding, too.”<br />

On a typical day, Joe does the feeding,<br />

while Tom focuses on the crops<br />

and maintenance of the operation. Of<br />

course, everyone helps during calving<br />

season, which begins in <strong>February</strong> with<br />

the replacement heifers. The operation<br />

has two full-time employees who help<br />

with the day-to-day tasks of the business.<br />

The employees also have to go<br />

through training in animal handling<br />

and following the guidelines of the<br />

program.<br />

“In this part of the country, winters<br />

are long and hay is expensive,” admitted<br />

Davis. “Adding the feedlot was a<br />

good choice for us. We looked at our<br />

options, and this was our way to stay<br />

Friends, Customers, and Fellow <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

Breeders:<br />

2010 was a year of significant transition<br />

for the Jamison operation. As many of you<br />

know, we made the decision to disperse<br />

the entire female herd after over 60 years<br />

in the <strong>Hereford</strong> business. This decision was<br />

made so we could settle family partnerships<br />

and strengthen our financial situation moving<br />

forward. As you can imagine, this was<br />

a very difficult decision for us as <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

cattle and the people in this industry have<br />

been a significant part of our lives for so<br />

many years.<br />

In the months approaching our December<br />

dispersion sale, we were approached by a<br />

number of individuals who expressed interest<br />

in finding ways to maintain the Jamison<br />

herd moving forward. I explained to these<br />

individuals that I was not in a financial position<br />

to buy back enough females from the<br />

family partnership in order to maintain a<br />

viable registered herd. These discussions<br />

eventually led to an investment group being<br />

formed that proposed to buy females out of<br />

the dispersion sale and hire Jamison <strong>Hereford</strong>s<br />

to continue to maintain and operate<br />

the herd at our ranch.<br />

This investment group was successful in<br />

purchasing 157 females out of the dispersion<br />

sale in December. For those of you<br />

who attended the sale, these females were<br />

purchased under the name Oleen Brothers<br />

of Dwight, KS or E&G Farms of Dighton,<br />

KS. Both of these entities are part of the<br />

investment group. The Jamison family has<br />

executed an agreement with the investment<br />

group to manage and maintain the females<br />

purchased. Because our agreement with<br />

the investment group gives Jamison Here-<br />

viable in this competitive market. One<br />

thing we like to focus on is consistency.<br />

Quality is an issue in the beef industry<br />

today, and it’s hard to control or measure.<br />

One bad eating experience for a<br />

consumer is tough on the whole industry.”<br />

Without a doubt, the Davis cow-calf<br />

operation and feedlot has endured and<br />

prospered through six generations. Today,<br />

they are a successful business offering<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> and black Angus cattle<br />

raised in the NHTC program and destined<br />

for the EU. Although the family<br />

is very modest about their accomplishments,<br />

it’s quite evident that other<br />

cattle ranchers could learn a great deal<br />

from the Davis family in cattle feeding,<br />

value-added marketing and transitioning<br />

the operation through the generations.<br />

For more information on the NHTC<br />

program, link to www.ams.usda.gov/<br />

and search NHTC.<br />

Jamison Announces New Partnership<br />

fords full management responsibility, these<br />

cattle will continue to be operated and marketed<br />

under the Jamison <strong>Hereford</strong>’s name<br />

and will have the same “Jamison Guarantee”<br />

that our customers have become accustom<br />

to over the last 30 years. We will continue to<br />

build on our foundation of high performance,<br />

maternally bred, Line 1 cattle. Although the<br />

ownership structure of the Jamison cowherd<br />

might be different, customers will continue<br />

to work with members of the Jamison family<br />

like they always have, and we believe that<br />

we will be able provide an even higher level<br />

of quality and service.<br />

Several of the members of the investment<br />

group have been long time friends and customers<br />

of ours. Others are new to the <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

business altogether. I have listed the<br />

also plan to have female sales as we have<br />

done in the past. I hope the only change<br />

Oregon Century Farm<br />

The big red barn, windmill and two<br />

great-grandparents, Fred and Ida<br />

Looney.<br />

The barn was constructed to accommodate<br />

draft horses and dairy cows and<br />

to store hay. Its beams were hand hewn<br />

and assembled with wooden pegs. Generations<br />

of barn owls have called it<br />

home.<br />

Final Go-Round...<br />

Mary Ella Meek<br />

Mary Ella Meek, age 85 of Burke’s<br />

Garden, VA died Saturday, December<br />

18, 2010 at her home. Born January 10,<br />

1925 in Ceres, VA, she was a daughter<br />

of the late George and Virgie Lambert<br />

Baumgardner. She was a member of<br />

the Burke’s Garden Homemakers Club.<br />

(continued from page 24)<br />

stoves provided heat in the<br />

early days. The open staircase<br />

in the living room<br />

leads to five bedrooms and<br />

an original stained-glass<br />

window on the second floor.<br />

In 1959, our place was<br />

recognized as a historic Oregon<br />

Century farm. Almost<br />

40 years later, Smitty and I<br />

updated our home with an<br />

eye toward maintaining the<br />

heritage of the grand old<br />

family farmhouse.<br />

Over the years, we’ve been honored<br />

to share the beauty of our ranch with<br />

historical societies, visitors from retirement<br />

homes, high school photography<br />

classes and college livestock judging<br />

teams. One of our greatest joys is working<br />

with the grandkids on their 4-H and<br />

cattle projects.<br />

We welcome visitors and enjoy sharing<br />

the history and heritage of our family<br />

ranch.<br />

Mrs. Meek worked side by side with<br />

her husband her entire married life. For<br />

many years Mrs. Meek and her husband,<br />

Marvin Meek, lived in Arizona<br />

where he managed the 26 Bar Ranch.<br />

She worked keeping the books for the<br />

26 cow herd and fed multitudes of people.<br />

She was a loving and devoted wife,<br />

mother and grandmother. In addition to<br />

her parents, she was preceded in death<br />

by two sisters.<br />

Reserve Cow/Calf Pair at the 2009 NILE in Billings, MT.<br />

The old Cox family farmhouse.<br />

She is survived by her husband of<br />

sixty eight years, Marvin Meek; three<br />

daughters, Bobbie Meek Brecht of Iowa,<br />

Doris Meek of Burke’s Garden, VA and<br />

Judy Meek Eustis and her husband, Scot<br />

of New Mexico; five sisters; six grandchildren;<br />

and seven great grandchildren.<br />

In lieu of flowers, the family requests<br />

memorial contributions be directed to<br />

the Burke’s Garden Cemetery Association<br />

c/o Barbara Rhudy, 7756 Burke’s<br />

Garden Road, Tazewell, VA 24651.<br />

Louis Taylor Latimer<br />

It is with great sadness that the Latimer<br />

family announce the passing of Louis<br />

Taylor Latimer on December 21, 2010,<br />

following a brief illness.<br />

Louis is survived by his loving wife<br />

Jean, their children Linda (Doug Henderson),<br />

Gary (Jacci), Marlene (Ian Harvie)<br />

Nancy Latimer, Bryan (Annette)<br />

and Elaine (Greg Urwin), 22 grand children<br />

and 14 great grandchildren and numerous<br />

nieces and nephews. He is also<br />

survived by his sister Mary (Jim Buzzard),<br />

brother Marvin (Mary) and sisterin<br />

law, Jeannie Latimer and predeceased<br />

by two brothers Carroll and Norval.<br />

Louis was born on <strong>February</strong> 13, 1923<br />

on the family farm near Bowden, AB.<br />

He attended the Nesbit School and at<br />

the same time started his business career<br />

by trapping weasels, muskrat and coyotes<br />

until he had enough money to buy a<br />

Shorthorn heifer, which started a fabulous<br />

career of breeding purebred seedstock<br />

in four breeds, Shorthorn, Polled<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong>, Gelbvieh and Angus.<br />

Louis married Jean Winter on December<br />

3, 1945. Their marriage was a<br />

partnership in both love and business.<br />

Together they raised six children and<br />

successfully built the Remitall herd.<br />

In 1954, Louis and his brother Carroll<br />

formed a partnership that continued<br />

for twenty years. When they dissolved<br />

their partnership in 1976, he formed a<br />

partnership with his two sons, Gary and<br />

Bryan.<br />

During the period 1960 to 1972 Louis<br />

& Jean, Carroll & Jeannie purchased<br />

the John Deere business “GreenLine” in<br />

Olds.<br />

Louis was very active in the Olds<br />

Agricultural Society, and twice had the<br />

honor of being President. Louis was active<br />

on many different boards, including<br />

the Calgary Stampede, Canadian <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

and Shorthorn Associations.<br />

Louis has received numerous awards<br />

during the years including: Hall of<br />

Fame at NILE Exhibition 1979 (Billings,<br />

MT); Canadian Livestock Man of<br />

the Year 1987 (Denver, CO); <strong>America</strong>n<br />

Shorthorn Association “Builder of the<br />

Breed” (Omaha, NB); Canadian <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

Association Honor Roll 1988; Alberta<br />

Angus Association Breeder of the<br />

Year; County of Mountain View Family<br />

Farm Award. Honored as a Pioneer by<br />

the Beef Improvement Federation on<br />

July 3rd, 2008. The Remitall name and<br />

its bloodlines are known world-wide<br />

and have made great contributions to<br />

the cattle industry.<br />

Louis strongly believed in his family<br />

Larry Bill Vroman, 61, of Harding<br />

County, passed away on January 18,<br />

<strong>2011</strong> after a battle with cancer.<br />

Larry was born in Belle Fourche,<br />

SD, on May 12, 1949 to W.H. “Bill”<br />

and Verona (Heck) Vroman. He graduated<br />

from Buffalo High School in 1967<br />

and went on to further his education at<br />

South Dakota State University where<br />

Larry and Claudia spent their life and<br />

raised their boys on the ranch. Larry<br />

was a creature of habit. Most days started<br />

early with a morning flight in his<br />

Super Cub. Many neighbors awoke to<br />

his voice on the radio giving the daily<br />

report of what he saw from the air. He<br />

loved flying his plane, not only to check<br />

on his and the neighbor’s cattle but also<br />

to observe things such as the growth of<br />

baby eagles in their nest. Larry worked<br />

tirelessly to make ranch improvements.<br />

From fixing windmills or machinery to<br />

building fence, he could always get the<br />

job done. Somehow, he seemed to have<br />

anything he needed in his pickup or in<br />

a pile somewhere in the old shop where<br />

only he could find it. He could get pretty<br />

creative in order to save a few dollars<br />

and a trip to town. He loved his life on<br />

the ranch, having good grass and happy<br />

cattle.<br />

He was truly a cowboy’s cowboy.<br />

When he was young his parents raised<br />

ponies, it was his job to ride the rough<br />

string. This is when his love for challenging<br />

horses began and continued until<br />

death. A horse never got very old under<br />

Larry’s saddle. As soon as one got<br />

half gentle, he was ready to start over<br />

with a fresh one. He was a very gifted<br />

roper, but more importantly he loved to<br />

teach the art of roping. His arena was always<br />

open to anyone with an interest in<br />

roping and a willingness to work.<br />

Larry is survived by his wife, Claudia;<br />

two sons Taylor Vroman, and Ryan<br />

(Kelcee) Vroman, both of Harding<br />

County; one grandson, Jace Vroman;<br />

parents Bill and Verona Vroman of Buffalo;<br />

sister, Linda (Bill) Otis of Phoenix,<br />

AZ; brother, Mark (Jo) Vroman of Harding<br />

County; mother-in-law, Jean Matson<br />

of Spearfish; and numerous nieces and<br />

nephews. He was preceded in death<br />

by one brother, Ross Vroman; an uncle,<br />

Colonel Vroman; and father-inlaw,<br />

Charles Matson. He will be deeply<br />

missed by all those who loved him.<br />

A memorial roping will be held this<br />

summer to celebrate Larry’s life.<br />

Building intrinsic value in beef cattle can’t be done by perception. Either cattle<br />

work up the food chain, or they don’t. Cattle either possess the genetics to be<br />

profitable at any end point, or they don’t. It’s really pretty simple. Talking about it<br />

is one thing. It’s another to stake more than a half-century of your reputation on<br />

every calf crop. We hope you will join us <strong>February</strong> 22, <strong>2011</strong>, Manhattan, KS<br />

Matt Copeland Herdsman of the Year<br />

www.herefordamerica.com • 37<br />

Matt Copeland, Nara Visa, NM, was selected as the<br />

<strong>2011</strong> <strong>Hereford</strong> Herdsman of the Year at the National<br />

Western Stock Show (NWSS) in Denver. Matt was<br />

selected for the award by his peers — other <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

herdsmen and breeders. Matt is the fourth generation to<br />

make <strong>Hereford</strong>s a business on the family’s New Mexico<br />

ranch, Copeland and Sons, which has been in operation<br />

since 1943. Today, the Copelands run about 130 registered<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> cows and 400 commercial cows. In addition,<br />

they also manage 80 cows used for the production<br />

of club calves.<br />

He is pictured here with his wife Kyla and parents Cliff<br />

Bill Kuehn Presented<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> Innovator Award at<br />

National Western Stock<br />

Show in Denver<br />

Bill Kuehn, Heartwell, NE, was honored<br />

with a <strong>Hereford</strong> Innovator Award<br />

by the <strong>America</strong>n <strong>Hereford</strong> Association<br />

for his commitment to the <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

industry and the Certified <strong>Hereford</strong><br />

Beef (CHB) program. Bill, co-owner of<br />

WRK <strong>Hereford</strong>s Inc., and Kuehn Feedlot,<br />

Heartwell, NE, and Sweetwater<br />

Cattle Co., Kearney, NE, was presented<br />

with the award at the National Western<br />

Stock Show <strong>Hereford</strong> Carload and Pen<br />

Show in Denver, Jan. 14.<br />

Bill has been in the <strong>Hereford</strong> business<br />

his whole life. Now 69 years old,<br />

Bill bought his first <strong>Hereford</strong> heifer<br />

when he was a freshman in high school<br />

as an FFA project. He’s been hooked<br />

ever since.<br />

Now, he operates WRK <strong>Hereford</strong>s,<br />

along with his son Chris, which includes<br />

180 <strong>Hereford</strong> cows, of which<br />

about 100 are registered. He and Chris,<br />

along with Bill’s brother and his son,<br />

own a small feedyard (about 1,500<br />

head capacity) where they background<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> and <strong>Hereford</strong>-influenced cattle,<br />

both their own and those they purchase<br />

from others.<br />

Bill also recently bought into Sweetwater<br />

Cattle Co., which is a 14,000<br />

head feedlot in nearby Kearney. All in<br />

all, Bill purchases and feed about 6,000<br />

<strong>Hereford</strong> and <strong>Hereford</strong>-cross calves a<br />

year. All of the cattle that qualify are<br />

sold to National Beef Packing Co., for<br />

the Certified <strong>Hereford</strong> Beef (CHB) program.<br />

Bill has been participating in the<br />

CHB program since its inception.<br />

Bill says he prefers feeding <strong>Hereford</strong>s.<br />

“Their cost of gain, the way they<br />

gain, their handle-ability, temperament,<br />

all those things make a difference,”<br />

he says. “There’s many, many people<br />

I know in the <strong>Hereford</strong> business and I<br />

love them all. God bless each of them. I<br />

feel totally honored by this award.”<br />

Bill and his wife of 44 years, Kay,<br />

have three sons Chris, Larry and Billy,<br />

and three grandchildren.<br />
