Byron Bayers
You read about
things like this
happening but
until it happens to
your family you
don’t react the
same. Our 25year-old grand
Byron Bayers
nephew was shot
and killed in Denver this past week.
A fine young man, Eagle Scout,
football and track all-stater, big
gentle giant with a great smile,
wonderfully friendly to young and
old alike, he was a community
favorite. In fact he volunteered to
coach a junior high team last year
and also served as a lifeguard at the
local pool. Some kind of a road rage
confrontation started with an offduty policeman, not in uniform, in
his own car. After the confrontation
David was trying to get back into
his pickup to leave and the guy

Then in the mid ’50s, they
sold the Shorthorn business, and
Bill went to work as the

Minnesota cow herds
sell to South Dakota’s
Ravine Creek Ranch
A transaction recently completed was
the dispersal of the Registered Polled
Hereford herds of two Minnesota
breeders. Pat Huston, Benson, MN, and
Ken Werk, Herman, MN, ran their cow
herds together at Huston Grain &
Livestock Farm south of Benson, MN.
Huston & Werk purchased their base
cowherds from Ruchti Herefords several
years ago. The background genetics
come from the noted FHF brand,
Fredericksons of Starbuck, MN.
Bischoff ’s Ravine Creek Ranch,
Huron, SD, is a family affair and this
transaction saw the bulk of these two
fine herds go to the younger families,
son Matt & Heather Bischoff and
daughter Lori Peskey and her husband
Mike teamed up with Dad and Mom,
Gerald and Janelle Bischoff to get these
highly productive cows to South Dakota.
They will be a strong addition to the
already popular breeding program north
of Huron. The all female herd made the
move November 3, 2007.

Letters to the Editors
Dear Jill:
I have a story that I’d like to share
with you and the readers of Hereford
America.
On Saturday morning I picked up my
grandson as I often do. It was a
beautiful October day. The only cloud
was a dark one in my mind. I needed to
tell Jordan that we had put his calf to
sleep. His calf had been born with
Idiopathic Epilepsy, a fatal genetic
disorder that has appeared in the
Hereford population. Jordan knew that
his calf was not well and was having
seizures but, he did not know that the
previous day Dr. Mark had drawn blood
samples and euthanized him.
As I was explaining what had
happened, Jordan interrupted me and
asked if “Davey” had cancer and if Dr.
Dean had seen his calf. [Dr. Dean is
Jordan’s favorite Vet.] I told Jordan
what IE was and did the best I could to
explain Idiopathic Epilepsy and
genetics to an 11-year-old boy. When I
used the blue eyes/brown eyes example
that we all had in school I could see
the gears in his head start to turn. He
asked several questions that indicated
he understood that both the bull and the
cow had to have the “bad gene” for the
Annual Sale • March 1, 2008

SELLING
• 45 Bulls • 40 Females
including 25 commercial heifers
calf to have a problem. He said it was
good that we made David [the old bull]
into hamburger. Jordan wondered if our
new bull [Dan] had the bad gene too. I
told him that we did a pedigree check
and that Dan was not related to the “bad
bull”. We talked about the blood
samples that we were sending to Dr. Jon
Beever and how his research would
someday allow us to test for IE. Then
his little “light bulb” came on again and
he asked why we hadn’t checked the
pedigree on David last year before we
turned him out. I said that I did not
know about the “bad gene” until this
summer. He wondered if other people
had bulls with the “bad gene,” too, and
asked if they knew about the “bad
gene.” When I explained to him that lots
of people did not know he followed
with the logical response —
“Somebody needs to tell them!” I
believe that an 11-year-old Hereford
breeder has clearly recognized the first
step in dealing with the Idiopathic
Epilepsy crisis we are facing.
We can no longer sweep it under the
rug and hope it will go away. I trust that
all of us with potential IE carriers will
disclose this information to interested
buyers and fully cooperate with the
Association in dealing with this issue.

Faribault, MN
P.S.: Jordan always asks me to hurry
up and read Hereford America so he can
take it home.
Editor ’s Note: See last month’s
Hereford America, page 30 for more on
IE or the American Hereford
Association website under Genetic
Defects. This was recently updated.
Past issues of Hereford World,
including the herd bull edition, include
more information on the subject.
By the end of the year, Dr. Beever at
the Univeristy of Illinois expects to have
a DNA test for IE. We hope to bring
you more information on the subject in
upcoming issues.

Dear Editors:
I am writing to stress the need for integrity in the registered Hereford industry. A fellow Hereford breeder from
another state called me recently and jokingly asked if I would be interested in
some semen from a bull featured in a
Hereford World ad. The bull was registered as a straight Line One Hereford
yet he had no white on the top of his
shoulders, underneath his neck, his
chest, his legs, his belly or his tail. I have
had the privilege to tour the Miles City,
Montana Research herd and saw no
such animals there. Several registered
breeders have recently started featuring
similar animals probably to get eye pigmentation. I suppose a neighbor’s exotic bull could have jumped the fence
and back out without one’s knowledge,
but I would think any experienced
breeder with integrity would question
and not register the calf instead of promoting it. With the DNA testing available today, such animals should be
traced back to their original source if
they are not dead and gone.
Integrity problems are not confined
to Herefords alone but exist in other
breeds as well. Today one can find registered Angus bulls that produce calves
with horns and unsplit hooves (a Holstein genetic problem). Fifty years ago
with dwarfism many breeders resisted
integrity to their own ruin. Now, as then,
bad genetic problems are widespread.
Hopefully, we won’t repeat such mistakes again. As then, the sad part about
this is the number of honest breeders
who will use descendants of such bulls
thinking they are straight, pure Herefords from generations past only to find
out they are lacking many of the great
Hereford traits.
Sincerely,
Richard Day
RR 2 Box 69
Roff, OK 74865
Editor’s Note: Mr. Day, this is a
loaded one. While I can understand
your concern about integrity in the
breed, just because a Hereford has eye
pigmentation doesn’t mean a Hereford
isn’t straight-bred. Eye, scrotal and
udder pigment are a highly sought after trait in many areas of the country
especially the north where sun reflecting off of snow can cause bad sunburn
in the winter. Eye pigmentation is also
thought to reduce instances of pinkeye
and possibly cancer eye. Pigmentation
is especially sought after in northern
states which don’t have corn stalks to
graze and where the wind polishes snow
to a sheen creating prime opportunity
for sunburn. Commercial breeders who
are crossbreeding also desire pigmentation. Furthermore, if you look back
at old, old paintings of Hereford cattle
you will see eye pigment and even profuse freckling on white faces. So, it really is a trait of straight-bred Herefords,
however it might not be desired by you
and others. I know there are areas of
the country and Canada that really desire chrome on their Herefords and their
horses. I guess it’s a matter of personal
preference.
Many breeders will tell you that pigmentation in Herefords can be bred out
rather quickly. I don’t know what the
heritablility is but I’m sure a geneticist
could tell us a thing or two about it.
Speaking of geneticists, in this day and
age we have enough blood tests and
DNA tests to safeguard our breed in the
area of breed purity. By the end of the
year we will have more DNA tests to
identify genetic defects that have come
to the forefront in recent years.
HEREFORD AMERICA • December 2007
to the forefront in recent years.
So, I guess if you prefer your Herefords with lots of white, then raise them
that way. It is certainly your prerogative. But there are plenty of other breed-
www.herefordamerica.com • 5
ers who prefer pigment and continue to
breed them that way for economic reasons. It really is a part of the Hereford
genetics, past and present.

The New Fangled
Contraption
©2007 Ken Overcast
My miker-wave oven just bit the dust.
What a cowboy with his own personal
cook is doin’ with one of those
contraptions in the first place is another
story. I’ll get to that in a minute. It was
really old anyway. I’d had it for a long
time, and it must have been one of the
earliest models. It had leather straps on
each side to pack it around, and a crank
on the top just in case the power went
out.
I don’t think the crank ever worked,
but then I couldn’t get the little woman
to crank it so we could check it out…
these modern women. A guy would
have to be a rocket scientist to run this
new outfit. The whole front end is
covered with little blinky lights and
beepy buttons. It looks like the
dashboard on the space shuttle. Who
knows what you’re ‘sposed to do if the
power goes out? There isn’t even a
crank on this new one, and I don’t think
I’ll ever figure it out. If Ma croaks I’ll
starve plumb to death.
What those factories need is a just a
regular, ordinary guy to help design the
controls. I’m workin’ on a design right
now, and when the word gets out,
they’ll be fighting over it. I’ll probably
be rich by next spring. The way I look
at it, we can get by with just three
buttons and a dial. The buttons will be
for the cookin’ temperature, and they’ll
just be labeled warm, hot, and hotter.
The dial will just have three positions
too, and will be for how long you want
the stuff to cook. We could get by with
buttons here too, but the idea is to keep
this deal simple. There will be three
little notches carved in the dial;
1. Not too long
2. Quite a while
3. A long time.
I told you I was on to somethin’. The
only problem is going to be sellin’ this
to some miker-wave engineer. We’ll
probably have trouble getting him to
think up on our level. I think they go to
school just to learn how to make stuff
confusing.
The little woman is sort of glad I can’t
figure this new one out. I used the old
one for all kinds of things. It was really
good for warmin’ up my gloves and
overshoes when they got left out on the
porch, but where it really came in handy
was cookin’ the hot patches on inner
tubes. Don’t laugh. It works good.
‘Course everything that came out of it
tasted sort of like rubber for a week or
two afterwards.
I got
the old one
f
o
r
F a t h e r ’s
D a y
several
years ago.
It was a gift
Ken and B.J.
from the lady
of the house
after I got her a
new hay baler for Mother’s Day. I guess
what goes around comes around. I still
got the best end of the deal, even though
I didn’t use it for much other than
heatin’ up the overshoes and the other
stuff.
She was a good hand on that baler
too, and with it bein’ new, it wasn’t
broke down too much. She was sort of
possessive of it (you know how some
women can be) and got real sore if
somebody else drove it. I threatened her
within an inch of her life ever’ time she
made the bales the wrong length for the
wagon. ‘Course I don’t think it scared
her much, but somehow she did get to
where she made ‘em just about right.
Most ever’one knows the secret to a
good lookin’ square bale haystack is
having the bales the right length for the
wagon. One day when I was in town, a
fella complimented me on the way our
stacks looked, and asked me the secret.
“Nothin’ to it.” was my answer. “You
just gotta sleep with the baler man.” He
got quite a kick out of that, but then he
KNEW the “baler man” on our place
was a girl. Nowadays a guy might have
to be a little more careful how you
threw that sort of stuff around. A
stranger might plumb get the wrong
idea.
Time marches on I guess. We lost the
baler one of the times we went broke. I
ain’t sure if we’ve gone broke one big
long time or two or three short ones. I
guess it really doesn’t matter, but now
with the old miker-wave busted, you
could say this is the end of an era. The
cook not only got even with me on the
first deal, but now I can’t start to run
this new contraption, and she isn’t
about to show me how. I guess that
means she comes out on top.
She’s the winner, and I’m stuck
with cold overshoes. Boy, I hate that.

great people and will do a great job. We
look forward to having more time to actually visit with people at the South Dakota Hereford events! Thanks South
Dakota!!!
Once again South Dakota had a super weekend of annual meeting, banquet and Excellence Sale. I commend
breeders for their continued support and
participation. We had well over 100
people at the banquet and a full house
for the sale. I sympathize with other
states who struggle getting a good turnout at their annual events. The South
Dakota group has had an organized association for over 60 years. I’d say over
these years they have learned to get
along even though they might not agree
with one another from time to time.
They also realize the importance of continuity in their organization and working together. There are a bunch of hard
workers here in this state and they are
usually up for a new challenge. Support
for new things such as the ribeye steak
sandwich booth at DakotaFest has been
tremendous and it’s been a good thing
for the breed and the state association.
Breeders work together at this annual
event, have a great time and accomplish
something for our association. I think I
can also say, they don’t care what head
shape the other guy’s cattle have!
The point is, these breeders work together and benefit from keeping a strong
state association going. Congratulations
South Dakota breeders! — Jill
Byron’s Editorial...
(continued from page 1)
pulled a gun and shot him twice. David
died with his friend and driver holding
him. The shooter then held his gun to
the other young man and threatened to
shoot him too, but did not. The off-duty
officer is under investigation and now
the case goes to a Grand Jury. The local
funeral attracted over 500 people,
including our former Governor, who
spoke in David’s honor. Both David and
his father have worked on our ranch
while growing up and it makes our
family wonder what this world is
coming to when a fine young man like
David was gunned down. There are too
many of these kinds of incidents
everywhere in the world.
Marc, Pauline and I traveled into
David Rossiter
Canada this week for the first sale to
be held in Alberta since the border was
announced to open. The AdamsHirsche sale was interesting and very
good. They have sold several higher
priced bulls into the US that have never
been delivered. The owners are now
making plans to get the bulls to their
new homes. (It would be interesting to
know how many bulls purchased by
American buyers are still in Canada).
We are looking at 3 to 5-year-old bulls.
Several heifers were sold south of the
border but the bull business is a little
slower in returning. One of the reasons
is the money value. The Canadian
dollar was worth 9% more than our
dollar on sale day. I can remember
buying a bull in Canada in the ‘70s and
had to pay 18% more. Just before the
border was closed to shipments to the
US the Canadian dollar was worth 40%
less than ours. That year many bulls
were coming into the US commercial
herds. Our Canadian friends tell us that
the weaker American dollar has really
hurt the commercial industry in
Canada. We also read in the paper the
morning we left Great Falls that the
flow of Canadian shoppers was greatly
increased after the change in money
values in the two countries. We got to
the border at 7:00 a.m. and it took about
15 minutes (yes, passports are needed
now) but the night before Benny
Brillhart (the Canadian auctioneer calls
him Benny) and Brent Meeks told us
that it took them three hours and thirty
minutes to clear because so many
Canadian shoppers were going home
after a big three-day holiday in
Montana. It did seem to our observation
that when people found the cattle that
they wanted in the sale that the currency
valuation was not a factor in their
purchase decision. The pain the
Canadian cattlemen have endured is
terrible and we as good people need to
understand that. A good neighbor is a
good neighbor. Don’t forget that. Some
of the guys at the coffee shop will argue
with me but I will stand my ground.
This will be the last issue of Hereford
America for 2007. We have covered the
continent from Canada in the north to
Texas in the south and from the west
coast to Ohio. Marc and Jill do most of
the traveling now. Our visits with the
good Hereford people are interesting
and we enjoy meeting new people but
we sure like to run into folks we have
known for a long time. I am always
pleasantly surprised when Hereford
people passing by stop in and visit us
in Montana. Jim Wildeman, Ron and
Renee Hanson and Jim and Marlene
Mrnak stopped in during the past two
weeks on their way back to their homes
in Canada and South Dakota. Good to
see you folks!
Thanks for all of the support you
Hereford people have given us these
past few years. Merry Christmas and
we hope for a good New Year for
everyone!

a registered Hereford operation, TT
Herefords. They immediately became
involved in performance testing their
cattle and enrolled the entire herd in the
AHA’s performance testing program. In
1969 their partner’s poor health forced
them to liquidate much of their herd,
and although they bought out his
portion, they were left with only 15
head.
Although it started small, Bill and
Norma’s own ranch, BB Cattle Co.,
quickly grew in size and reputation.
Cheryl Thomas, now an Oregon,
Washington, Northern Idaho Hereford
Association (OWNI) director, says
even as a young girl she was very
impressed with Bill. “BB Cattle Co.
produced bulls and heifers that were an
enviable tribute to him, his work ethic
and his knowledge of the breed,”
Cheryl says.
His hard work has paid off; the ranch
now consists of about 1,000 acres of
irrigated cropland and 5,000 acres of
grass. BB Cattle Co. consigns cattle to
national sales and hosts an annual bull
sale of its own. BB Cattle Co. bulls
have won the Jack Owens Ideal Range
Bull Award three times and the ranch
has shown numerous carload
champions and reserves at the National
Western Stock Show. Bill was also
awarded the Beef Improvement
Federation’s (BIF) Seedstock Producer
of the Year Award in 1988.
Bill has always been a leader in the
cattle industry. He served as an AHA
director from 1985-91, as well as being
involved in the Washington Cattlemen’s
Association. In addition, he has been
active in OWNI and the Western States
Hereford Association.
James Bennett
James Bennett, Red House, Va.,
operates Knoll Crest Farm (KCF),
which has long been known for its
performance-based genetics. KCF
consists of more than 500 registered
cows in south central Virginia.
The Bennetts have been in the
seedstock business since 1944, when
James’s father bought his first polled
Hereford cattle. In 1963, after getting
their feet wet in the business, they started
collecting performance data and tracking
beef improvement.
Not only have James and his wife,
Barbara, strived to improve their herd, but
they have also worked to help others test
their cattle. In 1972 KCF started a bull
test station for the Virginia Beef Cattle
Improvement Association, which served
breeders for 25 years. James became very
involved in BIF and in 1973 was elected
to the board of directors. He served as
BIF vice president in 1974 and president
in 1978.
He was also very involved in the
American Polled Hereford Association,
serving on the board of directors from
1983-86 and as chairman in 1987. His
dedication to improving his herd and the
Hereford breed is evident as KCF was
HEREFORD AMERICA • December 2007
named a spring 2007 Gold Total
Performance Records (TPRTM) breeder.
James Bennett has represented the
Hereford breed well. KCF was awarded
BIF Seedstock Producer of the Year in
both 1978 and 1998.
Despite all the awards won and
leadership positions served, most
importantly, James is a true cattleman,
says Don Trimmer, Accelerated Genetics
beef genetics manager. “James is a true
gentleman in the cattle industry. His
friendly smile and firm handshake greet
everyone he meets, whether they are an
old friend or new visitor,” Trimmer says.
James is also a family man. He and
his wife, Barbara, have a daughter, Beth,
and four sons, Paul, Jim, Brian and
Jonathon. Sid Rogers, Rolling Hills Farm,
Winchester, Va., says, “Those who know
James can attest to his outstanding
character, love of family and church, and
devotion to producing performanceimproving cattle.”
Rob Hooper
Rob Hooper was introduced to
ranching in 1945 after he returned from
47 combat missions as a gunner in World
War II. His wife, Mary, had grown up on
a commercial Hereford operation in
Oregon. They worked for her parents at
first and then, with still very little
experience, started their own small
commercial ranch in Nutrioso, Ariz. They
added to their outfit in 1953, when they
purchased a nine-section ranch in
Springerville, Ariz. Although the ranch
needed some work, they built a herd of
well-bred Hereford cattle and, thus, began
in the registered cattle business.
Since then Rob has produced quality
horned and polled Hereford seedstock for
54 years on the Hooper Hereford Ranch.
Throughout the years the Hoopers
continued to expand and grew to
encompass 31 sections in Arizona and
New Mexico.
Fellow Hereford breeder, Lee
Hutchens, Fallon, Nev., says since Rob
started in the business, “He has never
wavered in his devotion to the Hereford
breed and has been tireless in mentoring,
promoting and encouraging others.” He
has done this through being active in the
Arizona and New Mexico Cattle Growers
Associations and serving as president of
the Arizona Hereford Association and
advisor for the Arizona Junior Cattle
Growers Association and the Arizona
Junior Hereford Association.
He and Mary helped with countless 4H, FFA and junior association field days
and activities. They helped start the
Arizona National Junior Heifer Show and
Sale. Because of his involvement and
dedication, Rob was named Arizona
Cattleman of the Year in 1999.
Hooper Hereford Ranch was named
premier exhibitor at the 1985 and 1997
Arizona National Stock Show. Its success
spanned decades. Its cattle topped sales
and won shows in Arizona and New
Mexico and around the country starting
in the ’60s. Although the majority of the
cattle now belong to his grandson, Daric
Knight, Hooper still keeps about 20 head

to stay involved.
Rob and Mary’s children and
grandchildren are involved in the cattle
business thanks to their leadership in the
industry. Their eldest daughter, Roxanne,
and her husband run a Hereford-based
commercial operation in Springerville,
Ariz., and their sons, Daric and Lance
along with their wives, also raise cattle
and help Rob. The couple’s son, Steve,
and his wife continue to raise registered
Herefords at Hooper Cattle Co.,
Quemado, N.M. And, although their
younger daughter, Sharyl, lives in
Scottsdale, Ariz., she returns often to visit
the ranch.
Stanley Stout
When a sudden heart attack took Col.
Stanley E. Stout on April 30, 2006, a
deafening silence fell over the entire
livestock industry. “The Colonel,” as
many called him, deeply affected all
who heard his auctioneer’s chant or,
better yet, heard him declare “sold” for
one of their cattle.
Many would agree Stout made the
auction more exciting and interesting.
There was never a dull moment when he
was behind the microphone. Stout was a
purebred livestock auctioneer, but he was
more than that to so many in the cattle
industry.
Stanley was raised on a Hereford ranch
in Cottonwood Falls, Kan. He graduated
from Kansas State University (K-State)
and then went to Walter Britton
Auctioneer School in Bryan, Texas. After
finishing his education, he worked for the
AHA showing and managing a Hereford
herd in Japan.
After his return to the U.S., Stanley
worked in the livestock publications
industry as a field representative for
Western Livestock Journal and then
Drovers Journal before being promoted
to head of field staff for Drovers. He later
worked as director of advertising for the
Charolais Banner. In 1975 he started
Stanley E. Stout Auction Services.
Thus began more than 30 years of
selling cattle with a joke and a smile. He
was the premier auctioneer to have at a
production sale and usually filled his
calendar with between 140 and 180 sales
per year. Keeping that schedule meant a
lot of road time in his Cadillac.
He was more than an auctioneer — he
was deeply involved in the industry. He
worked to revitalize the American Royal
Livestock Show. He served on the Board
of Governors and worked the sale. Now
the exhibitor of the supreme champion
heifer at the Royal receives the Stanley
Stout Memorial Scholarship.
“Stanley was one of those you never
can replace,” says John Vanier, CK
Ranch, Brookville, Kan. “He created a
lot of enthusiasm for the Hereford breed.
He made each auction he called more
exciting and there was never a dull minute
when he was behind the microphone. He
spent his lifetime making people laugh.
He was one of a kind and is greatly
missed.”
At the time of his death, Stanley was a
member of the AHA and a proud
supporter of his alma mater, K-State,
through the Ahearn Club and Block &
Bridle. In honor of his life, K-State has
begun a fund-raising effort to build a
livestock-marketing center on campus.
After the last K-State production sale
Stout conducted he mentioned the need
for such a facility.
Stanley was also a member of the
American Quarter Horse Association,
National Auctioneers Association and
Livestock Marketeers. He was a member
of the board of directors of the American
Royal and an active Chase County, Kan.,
4-H alumnus.
His wife, Brenda; son, Justin Stout;
three daughters, Jessie Romfo, Jamie
Felton and Jodie Brethour; six
grandchildren; two stepsons and a
stepdaughter, along with his friends in the
livestock industry, continue to do as he
would have wanted and celebrate his
accomplishments in life.

Forever Lady 514 is a maternal sister to 615
(pictured), one of the most successful show
heifers to come out of Minnesota in recent
memory. This cow family has excelled in
fleshing ability, fertility, milk flow, udder
quality, and phenotype and has shown the
ability to out produce themselves.
Phenotypically, 514 is ultra-feminine and
maternal in her look, striking from the profile
and very sound on her feet and legs. She is
sired by the highly proven Kodiak 506E.

The South Dakota Excellence Sale
was another great success for the
Hereford breeders of South Dakota,
topping off a great weekend of
activities. The sale is held on the
campus of South Dakota State
University in the Animal Science
Arena which is the perfect venue for
this sale. Thank you to Kelly Bruns
and others from SDSU who helped
with arrangements. This sale is run by
a committee who really does a terrific
job: Don and Peg Zilverberg, Jerry
Rausch and Jeff Lounsbery.
Another draw for this sale is the
Heifer Grants that are given out. The
Heifer Grant Program turned 20 years
old this time around and there was
enough money to give out 10 grants
to juniors who had applied and been
selected to receive the $400 grants.
These are used toward the purchase
of a heifer the day of the sale.
A full house was present at sale time
and Auctioneer Chisum Peterson
conducted a snappy sale. As always,
many juniors and their families were
bidding on steers and heifers
throughout the sale — a nice sight!

Border Opens
Canadian cattle over 30 months of age
will be allowed into the U.S. market
starting November 19, according to
USDA.
In May 2003, the United States closed
the border to cattle imports from
Canada. It then reopened for Canadian
beef from younger cattle within months
of the original ban, and live cattle under the age of 30 months have been allowed to move across the border since
July 2005. But the border has remained
closed to older cattle until now.

Group Effort Yields Successful
Tennessee Hereford Sale
KANSAS CITY, Mo – One
thousand and eight head of age, source
and health verified Herefords and
Hereford-crosses brought $55,000 in
premiums for more than 75 consignors
to the 9th Annual Tennessee Hereford
Marketing Program Sale October 29.
The Certified Hereford Beef® (CHB)
and Hereford Verified eligible calves
from seven states – Alabama, Georgia,
Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina,
Ohio and Tennessee – were sold at the
Tennessee Livestock Producers’ Barn
in Columbia, TN.
A University of Tennessee analysis
revealed that compared to the week’s
Tennessee auction average, some
consignors earned, on average, an
additional $69.15 per head by
participating in organized marketing
efforts, bringing together the numbers
and verification that feeders demand.
Headed by the Tennessee Horned and
Polled Hereford Associations, and
backed by a strong team of
representatives from this year’s seven
consigning states, the sale has met and
far exceeded its initial goal: to obtain
the quoted average price of all cattle
seeing in auctions across the state of
Tennessee.
John Woolfolk, newly elected
American Hereford Association (AHA)
board member, Hereford breeder and
Marketing Specialist for Tennessee
Livestock Producers said that these
Hereford cattle topped the Tennessee
sales for the week because they were
part of a program.
“These cattle were feedlot ready. Our
producers listened to what the feeders
demanded in a health program and
weaned the calves and gave the proper
shots weeks before the sale. We limited
the number of problem cattle like late
cuts, poor doers and sick cattle. We
sorted the calves into feeding outcome
groups and created invaluable
uniformity.”
Woolfolk added that a key point to
the sales success was a group effort by
everybody involved. He said that the
producers, Merial Animal Health, The
Tennessee Department of Agriculture,
The University of Tennessee and the
American Hereford Association all
exhibited a spirit of cooperation with
their minds all focused on the feedlot
customer. This year’s sale drew buyers
from as far away as Iowa and Kansas.

There were 98 black baldies & 25 red baldies – 13% of the sale.
• Danny Herrmann, owner of Ford County Feed Yard in KS was present for
the second year and bought four loads of steers. Ford Co. is one of the feed
lots working with AHA and did an excellent job with our records and “ear

were placed on feed there is very good.
• Randy DeBruin, RSD Farms, Oskaloosa, IA was present for the second
year and bought four loads (280 head) for his Vande Rose Farms Premium
Hereford branded program. Randy brought carcass data to the sale from
some of the cattle that he fed last year.
• Tom Feller, Wisner, NE was also a buyer. Tom had bought out of two
previous sales, but had never been to Tennessee. As a part of sale promotion,
we assisted these buyers with their travel expenses in order to encourage
them to be present for the sale. Thanks to Jim Williams, CHB VP, for assisting
in getting these buyers to the sale and for showing them some Tennessee
sites on Monday while we processed cattle.

Fi n a l Fa re w e l l
Bud Day
Delbert C. Day, “Bud” to all his
friends was born on May 30, 1928 to
Delbert and Bernice (Griffith) Day at
Deadwood, SD. He was the second of
8 children and grew up on the Day
family homestead south of Dupree.
There he attended the Fairview rural
school. He began working at a young
age for area ranchers, shearing sheep,
helping with the brandings, and
breaking horses. Bud’s mother passed
away when he was 16 and he helped
his father with the care of his younger
siblings. He worked with his father in
the Black Hills logging for a time. In
1946 he began following the rodeos
produced by Eddie Bachman of Faith.
He not only helped trail the broncs to
the various locations, but competed in
saddle bronc, bareback, calf roping, bull
dogging, bull riding, breakaway roping,
and the wild horse races.
In April of 1951 he joined the US
Army and served in Korea. He was
discharged in Jan. of 1953 after being
wounded in Action. Bud was a Purple
Heart Recipient. Returning to Western
South Dakota, he resumed his rodeo
career and was active in the S.D.R.A,
the IRA and NRCA, winning over 40
saddles and 200 buckles, before he
stopped counting.
He was married to Iris Carmichael
on Dec. 15, 1954 at Bison, SD and they
began ranching in the Tri County area.
Four daughters and three sons were
born to this union. They raised their
family on a ranch north of Dupree for
16 years and since 1975 when they
purchased her parents ranch along
Thunder Butte Creek in Perkins County.
They raised and trained Quarter Horses
and livestock. Bud continued rodeoing
as long as he could, was a certified
judge for many years, was an Honoree
in the Casey Tibbs Foundation in 1991,
and was inducted into the South Dakota
Hall of Fame in 1992. The Day’s
encouraged their children and
grandchildren to be active in rodeo and
4-H. He built a training barn on the
ranch in 1979 and found much joy in
the hours spent training his horses and
guiding the youth in the area with their
horsemanship. He and Iris were
instrumental in the formation of the
Fellowship of Christian Athletes
(Cowboys).
He will be long remembered for
loving his family first and foremost and
coming in a close second would be the
sport of rodeo. He made many friends
over the years through rodeo and in
later years while watching his
grandchildren compete. He loved giving
them “pointers” and suggestions.
Bud was a member of the SDRA,
NRCA, the American Quarter Horse
Assoc. and a faithful member of
Alcoholics Anonymous since 1956.
He passed from this life on Oct. 20,
2007 at the age of 79 years, 4 months
and 20 days at Fort Meade Medical
Center with his loving family by his
side.
Grateful for sharing his life are his
wife of 52+ years, Iris of Meadow; four
daughters, Dency (Dale) Maier of
Timber Lake, Karen (Carl) Hinsz of
McLaughlin, SD, Jody (Emmett)
Thompson of Eagle Butte, SD, and
Jackie (Tim) Bernstein of Faith, SD;
one son, Justin (Amy) Day of Meadow;
one daughter in law, Marshel DayHuber of Lemmon, SD; 21
grandchildren
and
6
great
grandchildren, Peggy (Spencer)
O’Bryan and Skyler Grace; Ardie,
Corey and Rorey Maier; Shawn (Jayne)

Jewel (Donnie) Bettelyoun and Kashlin;
Kristen (Jeremy Ferguson) Thompson

Belle Fourche, SD; brother, Sam (Ja
Lyn) Bruno, Kansas City, MO; sisterin-law, Debbie Day, Howes, SD; aunt,
Neva Samuelson, Spearfish, SD and
uncle, Darrell (Marlene) Griffith, Faith,
and many cousins, nieces and nephews
and a host of friends.
He now joins his sons, Darwyn
(1989), Duane (in infancy); his
granddaughter, Gailup Hinsz (2003); his
parents; sisters, Bernice Hughes and
Doris Jeffries, his brothers; Lloyd
“Tiny” and Kenny Day for that final
eternal ride. Funeral arrangements are
placed in the care of Evanson Jensen
Funeral Home and Faith Area Memorial
Chapel.
John A. Penor
John Albert Penor was born January
26, 1910, in a sod house in Rainbow
Township, Perkins County, south of
Bison, SD. In the spring of 1907, his
family traveled by train to Sturgis and
then by horse and buggy along the
Bismarck Trail to Bison. They
constructed a sod house that John lived
in his entire life. He was the sixth child
born to Collis and Minnie (Dueschle)
Penor. John attended Bison school and
at age 16, barely out of the eight grade,
he took over operation of the family
farm and ranch. He farmed the land,
raised sheep, cattle, swine, and Arabian
horses.
John made an outstanding
contribution to 4-H, was active in
starting the Perkins County Fair, had
40 years of dedicated service to the
Extension board, 48 years as president
of the Perkins Livestock Improvement
Association, 71 years of service to

Carl Jensen
The cattle industry is a little less bright
with the passing of one of the major
contributors to the custom semen
collection industry.
Carl Jensen passed away October 3rd.
His loss has left a huge hole in the herd
of all those at Hawkeye Breeders
Service, Inc. Carl spent the last two
decades going all over the Midwest to
talk to customers and breeders and to
help make sure that your bull is going
to do what he is supposed to do when
you turn him out with the girls every
year.
Carl married Gloria, the daughter of
Lloyd and Doris Jungmann, the
unofficial “King and Queen” of the AI
industry twenty-eight years ago.
Having grown up in an urban setting,
he hit a few bumps along the road when
he joined the family business and
decided to make the transition from a
city slicker to a country boy.
Persistence and hard work prevailed
and before anyone knew it he was on
the road testing and collecting bulls like
he had been doing it all along. Carl loved
his family and loved his job. He was
usually the first one through the gates
in the morning and he was often the
last one to leave. His love of animals
and desire to constantly learn and grow
in knowledge of what it takes to make
a first rate cattle herd was evident to
all. He always greeted everyone with a
smile; and his sense of humor, although
sometimes misunderstood, was always
meant to help share his easygoing
attitude towards life.
Carl is survived by four children and
their spouses, and six grandchildren.
Carl will be missed by all those that
knew him. His personality was one of
a kind. Carl will always be loved by
those that were closest to him — he
left the pasture way too early.

DEL & RUTH WOOD
School of Agriculture has a scholarship
in his name, and Jewett was recognized
in 2001 as an Outstanding Graduate of
their school.
Jewett was a Director for the American Polled Hereford Association from
1972 to 1975. His lifetime dedication to
the improvement and advancement of
Hereford cattle throughout the world
was recognized and honored by the
Missouri Polled Hereford Association
Hall of Fame in 1993, receiving their
Leadership Award. At the National Western Livestock Show in 1992, he was
named Marketer of the Year. During his
long and distinguished career, he literally traveled the world promoting the
Hereford breed. For a number of years,
he sold and managed 17 out of the 20
top Polled Hereford sales in the United
States.
When former President Ronald
Reagan was campaigning for the presidency, he visited the Fulkerson 5-J
Farm in Liberty and spoke to the citizens of Clay County. Jewett was devoted to the political process and believed avidly that all citizens should be
involved. He led by example, serving
for many years as a Precinct Committeeman, and later, serving on the Clay
County Missouri Republican Central
Committee. He represented Missouri as
National Committeeman for 11 years.
In 1964, he ran for Missouri's Lieutenant Governor. In 1960, he was a delegate to the Republican National Convention in Chicago; in 1964, San Francisco; 1972, Dallas and 1980, Detroit.
He attended three other Republican Conventions, and in 1976 served as Chairman of the Host Committee in Kansas
City. In 2005, Jewett was honored as
Outstanding Clay County Republican.
He was appointed by four U.S. presidents to serve on the Presidential Scholars' Committee, an 18-year commitment. His trips to the White House to
present this award each year to the
nation's 100 most outstanding high
school students, were truly rewarding
for him. Jewett believed strongly in the
value of community service. In 1958,
he became a charter member of
Clayview Country Club, and later was
founder of Liberty Hills Country Club.
He was instrumental in creating Liberty
Hills Development Company, as well as
creating the residential subdivision of
Fulkerson Estates. In 1987, he received
the Clay County Development
Corporation's Look North Award.
He was a principal figure in the establishment of Liberty National Bank,
which was eventually purchased by
United Missouri Bank. He served as a
Director on the UMB Board until his
death. The development of the Park
System throughout Missouri remained
a lifelong project for Jewett. For eight
years he served as a member of the
Missouri State Park Board and he has
been a member of the Clay County Park
board for the past 15 years. He was
always committed to the development
and preservation of public lands for the
benefit and use of the citizens. He was
a 50-year member of the First Presbyterian Church of Liberty. In 1940,
Jewett married Carolyn Elizabeth
Jenkins of Kansas City, Missouri. Their
59-year marriage was one of great love
and devotion. Through the years, their
home in Liberty played host to numerous functions, social and political
events, including the National Auction-
