NEW aAa WEBSITE<br />

<strong>Dairy</strong> cattle have been analyzed for nearly 60 years through the use of aAa. It began with one<br />

man and has become the industry standard in correcting mating practices due to its results that<br />

are now in global demand. A new website, www.aaa123456.com, has been launched to aid producers<br />

worldwide to sort out, select and use the better bulls on their cattle. aAa Animal Analysis<br />

was created and developed by William A. "Bill" Weeks, North Clarendon, Vermont, in the late<br />

1940s and early 1950s. The new website gives direct access to 22 aAa approved analyzers who<br />

provide the dairy cattle breeding guide in 24 countries. <strong>Dairy</strong> producers and AI semen marketing<br />

organizations will also discover free online access to the offi cial aAa Weeks analysis numbers<br />

of bulls. This global master fi le is maintained by Weeks Analysis under the direction of James E.<br />

Sarbacker at their international offi ce near Madison, WI.<br />

NOVEMBER/DECEMBER SHOW ISSUE<br />

The upcoming November/December Show Issue will include show reports from around the country.<br />

The All-American R&W Show, Harrisburg, PA and the Grand International R&W Show, Madison,<br />

"The Next Chapter for RWDCA"<br />

The next chapter for the <strong>Red</strong> & <strong>White</strong> <strong>Dairy</strong> <strong>Cattle</strong> <strong>Association</strong> is just<br />

beginning. After 34 years, we close one chapter of <strong>Red</strong> & <strong>White</strong> history<br />

and open another. We greatly appreciate John and Joan's many years<br />

of dedication to the RWDCA and as we reflect on all of their memorable<br />

years, they will be missed dearly! We are privileged to have had the<br />

opportunity to learn from the best as we begin our exciting journey with<br />

the RWDCA. Also, thank you to Audrey, Ronda and Glenda Jo!<br />

Our first memories of <strong>Red</strong> & <strong>White</strong>s began at a young age as we hoped<br />

that our 1st 4-H calves would indeed have that desired <strong>Red</strong> & <strong>White</strong> heifer<br />

calf. Our favorite cow was an old Triple Threat daughter (pictured) that<br />

attended several fairs and shows and proved herself by her EX-93-4E<br />

classification. Also pictured is an EX Cashier.<br />

Over the course of the past few months, we have met several <strong>Red</strong><br />

breeders and shared many conversations about <strong>Red</strong> genetics and the<br />

future of the RWDCA.<br />

We are excited to begin this new chapter with the RWDCA and look<br />

forward to the opportunities and responsibilities that are in store for<br />

us. Again, we would like to thank everyone for their help and support<br />

throughout the transition!<br />

Stephanie & Nicole Stout<br />

RWDCA Executive Managers<br />

President’s Message<br />

"New Beginnings" for RWDCA<br />

We just finished a very successful<br />

annual meeting of the RWDCA in<br />

Hagerstown, Maryland. We honored John<br />

and Joan Carpenter, our editor and executive<br />

secretary retiring after 34 years of service to<br />

our association. Many wonderful comments<br />

by our members at the banquet let them<br />

know how much we have appreciated<br />

all they have done for the RWDCA. The<br />

employees presented them with a scrapbook<br />

of pictures taken during their tenure with the<br />

RWDCA. Again, we wish them well in their<br />

retirement.<br />

On Thursday evening we had a<br />

reception for Stephanie, Nicole, John and<br />

Joan. It was a good time and a chance for our members to visit with<br />

each other and talk with our new managers. Stephanie and Nicole<br />

have big shoes to fi ll but I know they will be successful.<br />

The convention sale, managed by Matt Lawrence averaged over<br />

$5,300. This was by far the highest average we have ever had and<br />

I know the buyers will be pleased with the quality of all the animals<br />

I saw tied in the sale barn. An excellent job by Matt and his crew in<br />

preparing the cattle.<br />

We had many people in attendance that I have not seen for some<br />

time and it was good to visit with everyone and to listen to their many<br />

stories and memories of John and Joan Carpenter.<br />

The popularity of <strong>Red</strong> and <strong>White</strong>s is growing all the time with<br />

many new members. Let’s all make them feel welcome and a part of<br />

our organization. Encourage the youth as they will be the future of our<br />

breed.<br />

Jerry Good,<br />

President RWDCA<br />

as a 2-year-old, +8500 for milk , red carrier and being fl ushed. Another was sold<br />

to Emerald Acres and is GP-83 and will make 30,000 and 1,000 fat as a 2-yearold.<br />

The Murphy's include one GP-81 and milking very well and the best full sister<br />

died after calving with a heifer. The fi nal natural calf by Goldwyn developed into a<br />

stunning 2-year-old that is making a big record. She scored VG-86 as a 2-year-old<br />

and has one son going to stud. She just sold in the National Holstein convention<br />

sale in Wisconsin for $20,000 to Second Look Holsteins."<br />

#1 Debut<br />

This Paradox son joins the <strong>Red</strong>/RC TPI list at the top with an exciting +1743<br />

TPI, delivering both terrifi c production @ +2209M +57F +60P and solid type @<br />

+1.92. His reliabilities are well over 80% with 71 daughters in production and 55<br />

daughters classifi ed and he will add more daughters on upcoming summaries. He<br />

becomes the highest-rated <strong>Red</strong>/RC sire on the new Holstein Top 100 TPI list @<br />

#60, followed by the top <strong>Red</strong> sire Lawn Boy P @ #70. Congratulations to Select<br />

Sires, who now offer the #1 RC and # 1 and #2 TPI <strong>Red</strong> sires. Select Sires has<br />

made a dedicated long term effort to develop breed-improving <strong>Red</strong> and RC sires<br />

that will appeal to ALL markets, and their efforts are now paying clear dividends.<br />

Their <strong>Red</strong> program should be applauded by all <strong>Red</strong> breeders and adopted by<br />

those AI companies that have devoted less effort to developing a balanced <strong>Red</strong><br />

program to meet the growing demand both here and around the world.<br />

A Paradox Son with a Twist<br />

While many <strong>Red</strong>/RC Paradox sons have received summaries, Lion King not<br />

only handily tops them, but is unique in two ways. First, he has a very different<br />

maternal line that is 13 generations deep and features some well-known black &<br />

white sires not often found in <strong>Red</strong> pedigrees. His dam is an Etazon Addison that<br />

scored VG-86 VG-MS @ 2Y and produced 2-01 365d 29,722 3.3% 982 3.1% 917.<br />

Addison was a son of Mountain from a Bell Elton dam. Lion King's grandam was<br />

EX-90 EX-MS with records to 4-07 353d 27,273 3.9% 1008 3.2% 875 and lifetime<br />

111,261 3.6% 4061 3.1% 3500. Her sire was Juniper Secret Ohio, a Secret from a<br />

Valiant. The 3rd dam was VG-87 EX-MS with 132,961 4.0% 5263 3.2% 4250. The<br />

next 2 dams were also VG with top production. Behind that are 8 more generations<br />

that include an EX-90-3E and 4 Very Goods.<br />

The Ra-Mar-Land herd at Denmark, WI is owned by Steve Selner, a brother<br />

of Dr. Dave Selner. Dave spent many years in AI, is a fi xture at World <strong>Dairy</strong> Expo<br />

and has always taken an interest in <strong>Red</strong> & <strong>White</strong>s and the RWDCA. In fact, he<br />

received the RWDCA's most prestigious award, the Albrecht Distinguished Service<br />

Award, in 1997. Dave is very involved in the herd and makes the mating decisions.<br />

He had the following observations on the dam, Lorelei, and the family: "Lorelei was<br />

a tremendously growthy animal from day one. Always eating. When she started<br />

milking, we had never had an offi cial 100 lb. a day 2-year-old until she produced<br />

113 lbs. the fi rst month and kept at that 100+ level for 7 months. Just an incredible<br />

wet cow that fi nished +10,000 over herdmates. She came from a family that was<br />

always plus to herdmates and often the milkiest and typiest cows we had. I like<br />

to say she is the third generation "best cow" in the barn. Her grandam, then dam<br />

and then Lorelei were the best cows of their time. Further back were two more<br />

VG dams with one, Lucy, being another "best cow" in the barn ranking. Needless<br />

to say, we started to get contracts and do flushes. We were not too successful<br />

at fi rst, as she was just milking too well, but she finally did work well enough to<br />

put 5 more sons in studs and gave us 6 daughters from fl ushes. Her daughters<br />

(Lion King's sisters) are by O-Man, Sept Storm (2), Murphy (2) and Goldwyn. This<br />

took a little while and with her tremendous appetite, she became a very massive<br />

cow standing 63 inches tall and weighing over a ton. We really wanted to breed<br />

her back to see if we could get another generation of Excellent and another big<br />

record. She conceived on fi rst service to a new bull named Goldwyn, but we had<br />

let her get too fat and probably didn't know how to handle such an unusual cow.<br />

When she calved in early December with a heifer calf, we were elated. She tried<br />

to milk too much too quickly and had numerous health issues. She died about<br />

three weeks later, a pretty sad Holiday season for all. The daughters developed<br />

well and all have been successfully classifi ed while producing well.<br />

In addition to his outcross blood for <strong>Red</strong> breeders, Lion King differs from all<br />

other Paradox sons in his breeding pattern and type breakdown. His linear based<br />

on 55 daughters indicates many strengths and no serious faults, daughters are tall<br />

(1.87T) with very open rib (4.13O), wide rump (2.03W) with slight slope (0.63S),<br />

legs with ideal side view (0.01C), excellent rear view (1.96S) and steep foot angle<br />

(1.93S). Udders are outstanding with average depth (0.14S), strong cleft (2.97S),<br />

snug fore udder with close teat placement and amazing rear udder height (3.30H)<br />

and width (4.68W). Teats are slightly longer (0.89L). While many Paradox sons are<br />

receiving top production summaries, most have the faults of their sire...higher pins<br />

and/or below average feet and legs. Lion King stands alone as a high production<br />

Paradox son with no type liabilities, based on his current data.<br />

Charlie Will, Holstein Sire Program Manager at Select, adds the following,<br />

"Lion King is a good looking individual scoring Excellent on fi rst classification. This<br />

bull is a MAJOR LEAGUE milk sire with really good type. Daughters are silky, dairy<br />

cows that can really milk and with a deep heel and exceptional rear udders and<br />

teat placement. I would use him on Arrow daughters, something more smooth<br />

and/or strong. He should also work on Marmax daughters to maintain the milk<br />

and protect the strength. We will be using Lion King for <strong>Red</strong> sons."<br />

There are 3 milking daughters at Ra-Mar-Land and Dave comments, " The<br />

daughters follow the type pattern of Lion King's dam and the family. They are tall<br />

with good bone quality, have average width and develop body depth with age.<br />

They have very strong udder attachments both fore and rear and excellent teat<br />

placement. They knew how to milk, and like the family, they are always eating."<br />

Summary<br />

Lion King is the best Paradox son to date and the most exciting new high<br />

production sire in <strong>Red</strong> in some time. He is an obvious choice for <strong>Red</strong> sons and<br />

an excellent mate for the smooth, wide cow. He will signifi cantly boost production<br />

while improving both udders and feet & legs. He also sires ideal rumps with slight<br />

slope. He is very average in management traits based on early data, including a<br />

reliable 10 (slightly below average) on calving ease. He is lower in components,<br />

though not extreme.<br />

Final Thoughts<br />

Dr. Selner adds some points of interest..."Lion King was the fi rst bull calf at<br />

our farm sold to AI. We appreciate Select's interest. They have sampled him well<br />

and developed him into a tall Excellent bull himself. I was disappointed when he<br />

was born because I thought a female from this cross could be a great cow for<br />

the future and infl uence the <strong>Red</strong> breed. I have always had an interest in <strong>Red</strong> and<br />

wanted to develop a strong <strong>Red</strong> & <strong>White</strong> family by utilizing a top <strong>Red</strong> bull on a<br />

strong black family. Of course, I never realized Lion King would turn out this well<br />

and have the opportunity to infl uence the progress of the <strong>Red</strong> cow."<br />

And what about that great name? "He was named by Steve's two daughters<br />

because he was from our "L" family. If we received full price after he produced<br />

semen, their Dad promised them a trip to Disney World in Orlando. Needless to<br />

say, he passed the semen tests and they enjoyed their trip to Mickey's Place."<br />
