Mike Paul
CEO, National Swine Registry
Stockman native
Last month, Brian Arnold and I
enjoyed meeting and interviewing several
candidates for the field staff position.
These meetings and interviews brought
many people that are very passionate about the activities and programs
provided by the National Swine Registry and the National Junior Swine
Association. Each candidate brought
different thoughts and new ideas.
Their ideas gave us an opportunity to
see how others view what we do.
One of the candidates mentioned
during his interview that he was a ‘digital
native.’ His term referring to the change
in how most of our members do business
with the different social media platforms
struck a chord with me. I’ll admit that
while I can navigate the digital world,
I’m far from a native. But I was fortunate
to grow up in the purebred swine industry, so I’d call myself a ‘stockman native.’
I have seen all the type changes in our
industry over the years and some have
repeated themselves more than once.
Today, I hear rumblings in this country
about the number of gilts that will not
breed or cannot have pigs naturally and
require a C-section. Folks, I’m not telling
you what type of animals to raise, but I
do want to provide a brief history lesson
with the different trends I have seen
over the years, and the issues we created
by going to extremes with each type.
We raised heavy-muscled, smallerframed pigs in the ’60s and sold them
on a ham/loin index. (Remember, we
marketed animals at 200 lbs during this
time.) My father was glad he had sons
Take time to evaluate your breeding program
and how you select your next herd boar or
foundation female. Instead of simply selecting
the ‘-est,’ try searching for the ‘best.’
with smaller arms to
assist these females
delivering their litters. When we realized that we went to
the extreme with this
small, heavy-muscled
type, we made a concerted effort to breed
taller-fronted, longer-bodied animals.
We were successful in breeding
taller-fronted pigs in the ’70s, but they
were also flat ribbed and flat muscled.
Once again, we went to the extreme
edge of type and produced animals
that did not have the ability to get up
and down in the crates. Without having the correct curvature to their rib,
these females came out of the farrowing
rooms in poor condition, and many
wouldn’t rebreed. Again, we realized
that we went to the extreme edge with
this type, so we started using more
moderate, heavy-conditioned boars.
We continued this trend in the ’80s,
until we pushed the type too far, yet
again. Once more, we had females that
were unable to farrow litters and raise
their pigs productively. To top it off, the
market demanded a leaner product.
Striving to meet this demand,
producers imported animals from
Europe that moved our genetic lines off
center to reach the goal of leaner hogs
with higher cutability. But we made
animals too lean, too tight gutted, and
they grew too slowly. These females
did not have the ability to consume
enough feed to stay productive and
moved out of our herd too quickly.
In the early 2000s, we came to realize we’d pushed our genetics too far off
center to be productive, so we bred
hogs with more rib, depth and width of
body, bone and heaviness of structure.
Today, I’m concerned that we have
moved too far with this type of animal.
When we hear the terms like, “widest
coming at you,” “heaviest structured,”
“deepest ribbed” and “softest made” to
describe our females, I’m afraid that
these terms relate to those sows that
can’t breed or have pigs on their own.
Maybe, it is the ‘-est’ part that
concerns me most. I realize that to
make a change in your breeding program, you might need to reach out and
incorporate some of the ‘-est’ traits, but
your whole herd does not need to fit
in the ‘-est’ box. Take time to evaluate
your breeding program and how you
select your next herd boar or foundation female. Instead of simply selecting
the ‘-est,’ try searching for the ‘best.’
As I mentioned, I may not be a
digital native that can navigate through
all the latest gadgets, but as a stockman native, I have seen enough industry trends and change to navigate
through genetic improvement.

Attitudes are contagious
Let’s face it, there are days when
we just do not want to do something, or we have some kind of doubt
in the back of our minds from past
experiences. It is simply human nature, and we are all guilty of it. As
a result, this usually stamps a pessimistic outlook on one’s attitude.
Unfortunately, life will continue
to give us responsibilities we are not
always fond of and present us with
negative information and circumstances
that we do not want to encounter.
However, we do not have to program
this negativity into our brains.
One of the most important measures
you can take toward achieving your full
potential is learning how to monitor
your attitude and its impact on everything and everyone around you. In truth,
people, generally, are not aware of their
attitude and how it affects others – it
governs the way you perceive the world,
and the way the world perceives you.
Similar to a lot of you who are taking
the time to read this, Kaley, Brian and
I travel quite a bit for our NJSA shows
and events, and we are faced with many
different tasks before, during and after
the shows. There are times when we
miss out on events with our families
and friends or are challenged with difficult situations at these events. Believe
me, these are circumstances that could
leave a bitter taste in one’s mouth or
have a negative effect on an experience.
However, one valuable lesson I have
learned within my role at the NSR is to
realize it is not what happens to you that
matters; it’s how you choose to respond.
Take a moment to ask yourself this,
“How is my attitude going to affect
my surroundings?” This is something
everyone should ask themselves, in every
we may have hoped for a different
outcome, but the best way to handle
these experiences is to look at it in
a positive light and move on. Learn
from these experiences by choosing a
positive attitude. Besides, people like
to be around people that are positive!
“One valuable lesson I have learned
within my role here at the NSR is to
realize it’s not what happens to you that
matters; it’s how you choose to respond.”
situation. For example, at shows, we all
have been frustrated for different reasons,
such as not doing as well as we would
have liked in a competition or we did not
agree with a judge’s opinion. Now, take
a second to reflect and think about how
you reacted. Was it positive or negative?
Is this something you want people to
remember you by? How would you feel,
if someone acted that way around you?
One thing to keep in mind – there is
always somebody watching and looking up to you. Turn your frustrations or
negativity into something good. When
you are put in these types of settings,
this is a perfect opportunity to not only
flip it into a positive experience, but
this is also a great teaching moment.
Everything that happens to you in
your life is a learning experience. Sure,
The loudest and most influential
voice you hear is your own. You are
your own critic, and depending on the
messages you allow, it can work with
you or against you. In reality, we all
have a choice as to what we want to
be known for and how we impact the
lives of others. There are numerous
things in this world we cannot control;
however, one thing we can control is
our attitude. My favorite quote comes
out of the book, The Pigman by Paul
Zindel, and he could not say it any better. “Our life would be what we made
of it – nothing more, nothing less.”
Remember, attitudes are contagious
– and a positive one is worth catching.

Katie Maupin
Director of Marketing & Communications
Never a stranger
What am I getting myself into I
wondered, as I scrolled through tickets on kayak.com. When I agreed to
be a part of past NSR Marketing &
Communications’ intern Libby William’s wedding, I was so excited that I
hadn’t put much thought into the fact
that I would be flying all the way to
Colorado where I knew no one – and
I mean no one – but Libby herself.
Although I’m not shy by any stretch
of the imagination, I was still worried
about the prospect of flying halfway
across the country to be a part of a wedding party with people I never met.
After the wheels touched down in the
Mile High City, I headed to the reception hall to help set up. I took a deep
breath as I walked through the doors,
and then something surprising happened. It was like I had known these
people all along, because they were my
type of people – livestock people.
Besides Libby, the wedding party
consisted of two other past National
Swine Registry interns who enjoyed their
summer in West Lafayette, Ind., before I
joined the NSR team, a past Black Hawk
East livestock judging team member who
judged with our own Whitney Hosier
and was coached by Brian Arnold,
showpig breeders who advertised in the
Seedstock EDGE and other livestock
judgers, exhibitors and enthusiasts.
It turns out that it isn’t hard to strike
up a conversation with people who
share the same interests as you do.
“Were you able to go to the
state fair in the Midwest?”
“I heard the high-seller in Indiana was smokin’ good.”
“What was the Colorado State Fair
show like, now that it’s pedigreed?”
“It wasn’t bad at all – the top-end
looked really good, especially the Yorkshires.”
Amid all the lace, roses and festivities,
I relearned something that I knew all
along. It’s not the banners, the genetics or even the good pigs that make
work, integrity and a firm handshake.
Sadly, these characteristics are becoming harder and harder to come by.
Even in my short lifetime, I’ve seen the
world become a darker place, but amid
all of the chaos, livestock people have
always been a bright beam of hope.
In this issue, you’ll read about Dick
Nash. For those that know Nash, you
know that he is a man who will tell you
exactly what he thinks, but he is also
one who will help a 4-Her get started
“Amid all the lace, roses and festivities, I relearned
something that I knew all along. It’s not the
banners, the genetics or even the good pigs that
make my job enjoyable – it’s the people.”
my job enjoyable – it’s the people.
This is a theme I hear over and over
again, when I visit with some of the
industry greats to write feature stories
about their lives and philosophies.
Perhaps, this is why I always enjoy
visiting with our breeders, because at
the end of the day we’re all stockmen
and women. Whether we originally
held halters of steer shows, braced club
lambs or drove good barrows, we all
share common ideals. We know what
it is like to get up early and take care of
our livestock, only to leave the barn well
after dark. We know all about the blood,
sweat and tears that go into each animal
we produce. We know the value of hard
with a livestock project. Today, there are
about three generations that can credit
Nash with some advice they received.
When I think back to my week in
Colorado and standing with Libby as
she said her vows, it makes me happy
to know that everyone standing there
were young people who can contribute
to the proud traditions of the livestock
world, just like Nash and the countless
other livestock people before them. And
it makes me prouder, yet, to know that
I work in an industry where there is
never a stranger – as long as there is time
to break the ice by talking livestock.

Hoge inducted into the
National Barrow Show® Hall of Fame
Dan Hoge of
Cambridge, Ill., was
inducted into the
NBS® Hall of Fame
at the 67th National
Barrow Show® held
in Austin, Minn., on
Sept. 10.
For more than
40 years, Hoge has
served as an educator and livestock
judging team coach
at Black Hawk East

(BHE) in Kewanee,
Ill. During this

annual Pilgrimage.
When he was a child, Hoge followed his father and legendary Duroc breeder,
Elmer Hoge’s, every step on their Walnut, Ill., farm. It was there that Hoge developed a drive to pursue his passion for the livestock industry. He judged for the
University of Illinois, where he received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees.
After a short time in Extension work, Hoge found a home at nearby Black Hawk
East Community College. In 1974, the BHE team won the first junior college division title at the NBS® contest, led by high individual Dave Steck. Over the next
39 years, teams coached by Hoge captured 30 team wins, with more than 20 high
individuals.
From the time Hoge and fellow coach, Lee Denzer, cooked SPAM® with a team
in the school’s auditorium, to the beginning of each school year, when he hands each
judging student a copy of the official “Welcome to the National Barrow Show®”
postcard, Hoge’s passion for the Barrow Show is contagious. Each fall, he coordinates multiple weekend workouts with fellow coaches, in the Midwest, to help prepare students for the NBS®.
Today, former judging students from across the country still remember their trip
to Austin, Minn., and many recall lessons learned from Hoge at a workout on the
way to the contest. These same lessons have proved invaluable in the professional
careers of countless students that were fortunate enough to study under Hoge.
Even more important to Hoge, than his own NBS® success, is seeing his son, Dr.
Mark Hoge, share the same passion for the event and guide students to wins in the
Truckload Show and University Judging Contest at Western Illinois University.
October/November 2013
10/2/2013 10:30:04 AM
Hoge would agree that having a chance to coach talented young students hasn’t been the only reason for success. His wife,
Deanna Broer-Hoge, and the Broer family have supported the BHE program, from its inception, by hosting countless preBarrow Show practices as well as animal science labs at the farm. As a former educator, Deanna shares Hoge’s love for developing
young people.
Hoge is known for his quotes, but none are more famous than, “You’re never done, your roles just change.” At some point,
Hoge will retire from coaching, but his role as a mentor and educator will forever live in those he’s coached over the years. The
National Association of Swine Records (NASR) and the National Barrow Show® are honored to present this Hall of Fame award
to Dan Hoge of Cambridge, Ill.
The NSR staff would like to thank Hoge for his years of service to the swine industry and congratulate him on being named
the 2013 Hall of Fame inductee.

Goodwin presented with
National Barrow Show® Distinguished Service Award
Rodney Goodwin received the Distinguished Service Award
from the National Association of Swine Records (NASR) during
the National Barrow Show® in Austin, Minn., on Sept. 10.
The National Barrow Show® Sire Progeny Tests were developed
as a ‘Genetics of Meat Quality’ industry research project, in 1990.
Design of the project was led by Dr. Lauren Christian of Iowa
State University, Bob Wells of Hormel Foods and the breed secretaries of NASR. Meat quality testing was supported by a $220,000
Pork Checkoff research grant from the National Pork Producers
Council (NPPC). Goodwin was the NPPC director of research
and a PhD student at Iowa State University, so he was assigned the
duties of data management and analysis.
The ‘Genetics of Meat Quality’ research project ended, after
three years, and the participants agreed to continue the progeny
tests with support from Hormel Foods, NASR and NPPC. The
structure of the Progeny Tests makes them useful for providing
additional research information. Research grants from NPPC supRodney Goodwin (center) receives the Distinguished Service Award presented by Mike Paul (r), president of the National Association of Swine Re- ported several enhancements to the Progeny Tests. In 1992, all pigs

the 1996-1999 Tests were used in total carcass separation projects
to develop lean prediction equations. Purebred sire EPDs for meat quality traits were published by NPPC, in 1996. Goodwin
managed the data for these projects, as well as calculating sire indexes for each NBS®, from 1991-2008. More than 30 scientific and
industry publications have been based on the NBS® Sire Progeny Test results and the associated projects.
Goodwin received a bachelor’s degree with distinction in farm operation from Iowa State University. In 1989, Goodwin received
a master’s degree in animal breeding from Iowa State University. He received the J. Morrissey Memorial Award for Outstanding
Swine Breeding Student, in both ’86 and ’87. Goodwin received a Doctor of Philosophy in animal breeding with a minor in
genetics from Iowa State University, in 1994. His major professors were Dr. Lauren Christian and Dr. Jeffrey Berger. Goodwin also
received the Charles Stanislaw Distinguished Service Award, in 2000, from the National Swine Improvement Federation.
Goodwin is owner of Kurobuta Berkshires LLC, a 300 sow Berkshire herd. They also market 100 percent Pure Berkshire Pork
certified by the American Berkshire Association domestically and internationally.
Congratulations to Goodwin for receiving the Distinguished Service Award.

Robert Bryson honored with the
HSR Meritorious Service Award
Robert (Bob) Bryson of Alden, Minn., was presented the
Meritorious Service Award by the Hampshire Swine Registry at the
2013 National Barrow Show®.
Bryson was recognized as a long-time supporter of purebred
Hampshire swine. Starting in the Hampshire business with his
father, the Brysons first recorded animals under L.W. Bryson &
Sons, until L.W. retired. Then, the animals were recorded under
Robert Bryson, and as his children became involved in exhibiting
animals, it was changed to Robert Bryson & Family. As the swine
industry accepted the three-way breeding scheme, Durocs and
Yorkshires were added to their swine operation.
The Bryson family was recognized in 2003 for being a 50-year
exhibitor at the Minnesota State Fair. Bryson was awarded the
Premier Exhibitor or was recognized as the owner of the Premier
Sire 15 times over the years.
Robert Bryson of Alden, Minn., gathers with his family to accept the
National Swine Registry CEO Mike Paul presented Bryson with Meritorious Service Award presented by the Hampshire Swine Registry

The Hampshire Swine Registry is a member of the National Swine Registry, which is located in West Lafayette, Ind.
The NSR staff and Hampshire breeders throughout the country would like to congratulate Bryson for his achievements and
thank him for his contributions to the belted breed.

On a small piece of Nash &

“from the desk of Dick,”
came this note neatly written
with only one small scribble
in the last sentence.
Common sense is the knack
of seeing things the way they
are, and doing things as they
ought to be done.

ational Swine Registry
CEO Mike Paul stashed
that little reminder away
and still has it nearly a decade after it
was mailed from Nash’s Sharpsville,
Ind., home. For those that know Nash,
the note rings true to his nature. He
has an innate way of seeing things the
way that they are, doing things the
way he believes is right and telling you
just what he feels about an issue.
No, Nash isn’t a man of flowery
words. In fact, he’s a man of few.
But throughout his five decades in
the purebred swine business he created a legacy in the belted breed that
still remains today, more than five
years after he sold his last sow.
Nash had commercial swine roots.
His father, William G. Nash, raised commercial pigs on their farm for as long as
Nash can remember. But when he started
showing pigs in 4-H, in the early-’50s,
he knew exactly what kind of swine
project he wanted – Hampshire. He
doesn’t quite recall what led him to the
belted breed, but if Nash had to guess
he’d tell you it was because they were so
much prettier than the others. Something he believes still holds true today.
Operating as William G. Nash and
Sons Hampshires, the Nash family soon
made a reputation as the go-to place for
Hampshire seedstock, and Nash made
a name for himself in the show ring.
In 1954 and 1956, Nash exhibited
the Grand Champion Barrow at the
International Livestock Exhibition
in Chicago. Those were some of his
proudest moments as a youth exhibitor.
“I even got to go downtown
with the girl who had the Champion Steer, and we were on TV,” Nash
recalls. “And I got to miss a week
of school, so that was real nice.”
But, it wasn’t the ribbons that
meant the most to Nash; it was the
people he met along the way. This was
an inherited trait from William G.
Nash recalls, his father taught
him it was best to conduct both
business and life with an honest,
no-nonsense approach, and Nash
believes that is part of what made their
seedstock business so successful.
“My dad always treated everyOctober/November 2013
OctNov 2013 form.indd 21
one like he’d treat his own mother,”
Nash says. “I guess his feelings on
that always stuck with me, and long
term, there wasn’t any question that
it paid off in big dividends.”
But others will tell you it was the
Nash family’s ability to breed good hogs
that made them a force in the purebred
industry for decades. And who could
argue? Before AI became commonplace
and a piece of the best boar in the
country could be shipped to your door
overnight for just a couple hundred
dollars, purebred breeders had to put
together their own herdsire battery.
They scoured the country for the best
boars their money could buy, and for
many that boar was raised by Nash.
The William G. Nash and Sons crew
showed some of the best in the nation
during that time. In 1962, all of the
Junior Champion Hampshire Boars and
Gilts at the Illinois, Indiana and Ohio
State Fairs, with the exception of one
winner, were raised by Nash and sired
by their herdsire Tabulator, which they
purchased from Ruben Edwards. Since
the family farrowed every month to
meet the high demand for their stock
and ran anywhere from 70 to 250 sows,
they had enough prospects that they
could show a separate string of animals
at each state fair, before offering them
at their annual fall sale.
SEEDSTOCK EDGE • 21

Not only were Nash’s hogs proven
winners in the ring, but they also proved
they could perform in test stations in
the ’70s and ’80s. This lethal mix of
performance and phenotype caused
breeders to travel from across the country
to buy Hampshires in Sharpsville.
Retired Michigan State University animal science educator, swine
farm manager and judging coach Al
Snedegar recalls a time when Nash
genetics were in such demand that the
sales would last well into the night.
“There were years, when their
boar sales were so good that they
had to start bringing them out of
lots to sell, still covered in mud and
not even numbered up,” he says.
During the heyday of purebred, offthe-farm boar sales in the early ’70s, the
Nash family was able to sell more than
100 boars at two of their farm sales. And
they would always sell 100-150 head of
commercial gilts, bringing the females in
the ring in groups of 10 with the option
to have choice or take all – most took all.
Although commercial boar and gilt
sales were their bread and butter for years
and years, the Nash family always had
a soft spot for 4-H kids. In fact, they
had one of the first club pig sales in the
country and decided to sell gilts first.
“The value of the 4-H project was
to get a female and raise her, then keep
her and raise your own pigs,” Nash says.
“That was just one of our philosophies.”
Darrell Drake, owner of Drake
Purebreds and longtime friend of
the Nash family, was one of the 4-H
members who purchased seedstock
from Nash. He purchased a boar to
breed his project gilts to, when he was
just 10-years-old. Since that purchase
Drake has considered Nash a mentor.
“I’ve got as much respect for him
as anyone I’ve met,” Drake says. “He’s
always been honest and up front with
me, and he has always treated me well
and given me advice. I’ve talked to him
constantly, since I was 14-years-old,
and I still talk to him on a regular basis
today. He’s always been a mentor.”
Drake is just one of many established purebred breeders that refer
to Nash as a mentor, a changer and
22 • SEEDSTOCK EDGE
OctNov 2013 form.indd 22
someone that they’ve looked up to.
Although Snedegar is just a couple
years Nash’s minor, he has always
considered Nash a mentor, as well. In
fact, to this day, Snedegar will not judge
a major show without calling Nash to
prepare, and he calls knowing that Nash
will tell him exactly what he thinks.
“Those who know Dick pretty well
will tell you that you never have to guess
what he is thinking,” Snedegar says. “He
isn’t real into political correctness and
never has been, but he can analyze pigs
and analyze them real fast. I’ve always
had him talk to my judging teams – not
just about animals, but life in general.”
Snedegar always appreciated Nash’s
frank talk and honest opinions, but
as an educator he appreciated the way
Nash guided young people even more.
Mike Watson, of George and
Mike Watson Hampshires, was one of
those young people Nash took under
his wing. In fact, he credits Nash
for getting him where he is today.
Although he’d known Nash since
he was a 4-H member, often buying
breeding stock from the family, his first
true Nash experience was when Nash
called him out of the blue and asked
him to ride along to Austin, Minn.,
to the National Barrow Show®.
The then 21-year-old Watson
pumped questions at him the entire
trip, and since that time he’s traveled with Nash quite often.
“For an established man in the
business to take time and spend it with
me at that age was great,” Watson says.
“He took the time – and he didn’t
have to – to pass along information.”
Nash has never minded visiting with young people though.
“I don’t know if I’ve mentored them,
but I’ve given them lots of free opinions,”
laughs Nash. “I just try to give them
some things and tell them about some of
the mistakes I’ve made along the way.”
Out of all the banners, plaques and
photos that remain of Nash’s years in
the show and sale ring, perhaps one of
his greatest honors was presented to
him on July 21, 2009 by the 4-H youth
of his native Tipton County, Ind.
There’s no mistaking the hint of pride
in his voice as he reads the inscription.
“Your vision and leadership for
making better hogs is only overshadowed by your passion for making better people,” it reads.
Today, there are no Hampshire sows
on the Nash family farm. There haven’t
been for six years this fall. After the
tremendous days of selling seedstock
throughout the country, the Nash
dynasty hit its first major hardship when
it was struck with pseudorabies in the
early ’80s. After clawing back from the
disease, they watched the demand for
herd boars slowly dwindle with the use
of AI and commercial genetic companies.
And, slowly, they reduced their numbers.
When the last sow left the farm,
Nash not only sold her, but all of
the feeders and waters as well, before
he pushed down the hog buildings.
He says that way he isn’t tempted
to get back into the business.
Today, he’s busy chasing his wife,
Nan, and grandkids around. He’s even
bought a couple Boer goat does to raise
some projects for the grandchildren.
Nash has always been a fan of the horse
track and partners with some other pig
breeders to buy yearling pacers, each
fall. With everything on his plate, he
says he has no regrets – not about the
time he spent in the industry, the hours
he spent helping others learn about it
or the fact that he decided to get out.
“Everyone asks me if I miss the
hogs, and I tell them no because I’ve
done about everything you can do with
them,” Nash says. “We went to every
show you could possibly go to. We’ve
won anything you could possibly win,
and I met the greatest group of people
that God ever blessed with breath. That
is what makes it all worthwhile.”

Feature Article
By Ann Fry
Nearly one-third of a pork carcass is considered waste, but
it doesn’t just get thrown away. Instead, it is converted
into pork by-products that can show up in the most
unexpected places in our homes. But, what is most
significant about these by-products is the contribution
they make to a swine producer’s bottom line.
By-products are all the parts of
the pig that are not included in
the dressed carcass. They include
the skin, blood, fat and other
edible and inedible parts. Pork
by-products make up about 30
percent of the liveweight of hogs
and contribute more than six percent to the market value of hogs,
according to a 2011 report by the
USDA. During the last ten years,
the demand for pork by-products
has caused the overall value of
live hogs to increase, which means
a higher price for producers.
U.S. pork by-products are even
demanded by other countries,
adding more value to market hogs.
On average, edible by-products
make up 30 percent of the volume
of U.S. pork exports, while inedible by-products make up one-fifth
of U.S. pork exports. Both the
total amount of pork exports and
their value have steadily risen for
the past two decades. In 2010,
edible pork by-product exports
from the U.S. were valued at
$700 million. Mexico is the largest importer of U.S. pork edible
by-products, receiving 42 percent
of the exports, according to the
most recent report from the USDA.
October/November 2013
OctNov 2013 form.indd 25
Inedible by-products are processed, and then, used in various
household and industrial products.
In processing, the tissues are first
heated so the fats and oils can
be skimmed off. Then they’re
converted to a form which can
be further used to make products
such as buttons, chalk and shoes.
Inedible by-products are also
used to advance human medicine.
Glands from pigs can be removed
at slaughter and used for medicine,
serums, vaccines and antigens.
Human transplants are also done
using pig skin, heart valves, brain
cells and lungs. Pig intestines are
used for surgical sutures; bones
provide calcium and phosphorus;
and bone cartilage can be used
to repair damaged human cartilage. For most of these medical
uses, synthetic products do not
produce the desired results as
well as the pork by-products.
Edible by-products make up
about 14 percent of the liveweight
of hogs. They are commonly called
variety meats and edible fats. Variety meats include the brains, heart,
kidneys and other organs. They
are considered delicacies in some
parts of the world, especially Asian
countries. Variety meats are good
sources of essential nutrients and
vitamins A, C, D and B complex.
The edible fats are usually further
processed and used in products
like ice cream or jellied foods.
Although we may not realize it, pigs have many more uses
than providing the bacon for our
BLTs. Almost everything you use
on a daily basis includes a pork
by-product, even this paper you
are holding, which is made from
the bones. In fact, there are more
than 99 products made from
pork by-products, and lucky for
swine producers, these many uses
add value to market hogs. Take
a look for yourself, and you will
be amazed at what you find.

not only nationwide, but worldwide. We need to stay
involved with youth programs, such as the NJSA. Those
programs are so important for young people. We need
to keep young people involved, in order to keep the
swine industry living. These youth programs mold the

Please describe what you feel the NSR and/or
HSR’s role should be in assisting purebred breeders compete in today’s market: I feel the NSR has
two important roles in today’s purebred swine industry.
One is to continue to help producers of all sizes with
a traceable pedigree that allows them to market their
stock through various forms of sales with predictability and integrity that both the buyer and seller can be
confident in to improve the genetic base. The second is
to continue to act as a parent organization and assist
with the stabilization of the NJSA and other youthrelated fields in all aspects of agriculture. I firmly believe
the HSR must continue to improve by maintaining the
integrity of the breed through breed character, DNA
records and promotions to give breeders the unique
marketability of a purebred Hampshire. The HSR must
also continue to find new ways to garner interest in the
Hampshire breed throughout the country, as well gain
access to some portion of the global markets.

Please describe what you feel the NSR and/or
HSR’s role should be in assisting purebred breeders compete in today’s market: We need to continue
to encourage young breeders to get involved in raising
Hampshires. We also need to stress the importance of
the breed in creating more product in the crossbred
scheme, both in the show ring and commercial setting. I
also think, as breeders, we need to recognize the weaknesses in the breed, stop tolerating problems as being
“OK,” correct them and intensify the effort to solidify the
positive things we already have to offer. Perseverance is
a word learned throughout life and the Hampshire business is no exception.

AT-LARGE • Lynsee Shaffer Pullen, Ind.
Lynsee Pullen, 25, and her husband,
Kyle, reside in Walton, Ind. Lynsee

Shaffer.
Size and scope of operation: Shaffer’s Goldrush operates a boar stud
and showpig operation in east-central
Indiana. We offer 80 herdsire boars of
all breeds to provide quality semen
to breeders, and our 125-head sow
herd provides a variety of showpigs for our customers
to choose from. We serve customers across the United
States with both our semen and showpigs.
Pork leadership activities: Offers swine clinics
throughout the year educating youth about feeding,
showing, clipping and other related topics, serves as the
Indiana Duroc Queen advisor, served as the 2009-2010
NJSA Junior Board president and served on the Indiana
Junior Swine Circuit Board.
Other leadership activities: Coaches the Lewis Cass
High School Livestock Judging Team.
The second role, which I feel is a growing and an
extremely important role, is working closely with the
NJSA to promote the Landrace breed with today’s
youth. Today’s youth are the future of the swine industry, and I feel that there is no better organization then
the National Junior Swine Association to help grow and
develop youth. The more NJSA members get excited
about the Landrace breed, the more opportunities
breeders have to sell their genetics. Most of the shows
do not offer Landrace boar classes. I feel we need to
work to get more involvement among breeders at
shows. A goal of mine is to bring back the boar and gilt
shows at NSR events. This will help increase the numbers of the breed, thus increase litter registration and
transfers. From this aspect, I think it generates from the
number of NJSA members that want to show Landraces; a supply and demand scenario. One way to encourage more member involvement is to hold brief Landrace
member meetings that the NSR hosts so breeders and
members become more educated on the importance of
a Landrace herd.
Please describe what you feel the NSR and/or
ALA’s role should be in assisting purebred breeders compete in today’s market: The NSR and the
American Landrace Association is the main way of
marketing the Landrace breed. I think that the American
Landrace Association serves two roles. The first role
is what the swine industry has been built on for many
years and the reason the association was formed: working with commercial and seedstock producers. Landrace
are known as one of the mother breeds for their ability
to lay down and raise large litters. Landrace females
and boars play a huge role in the commercial-side of the
industry. I feel that the NSR and the American Landrace
Association need to continue to promote this breed on
both the national and global level. This is done through
programs like STAGES™ and working closely with the
NSR geneticist.

Pork leadership activities: American Landrace Association Board of Directors member.
Please describe what you feel the NSR and/or
ALA’s role should be in assisting purebred breeders compete in today’s market: I feel the role of the
NSR and the ALA should be to do all they can to educate as many commercial pork producers as possible of
the many benefits there are for using purebred genetics
for seedstock and genetic improvements. They should
inform America’s and the world’s pork producers as to
why purebreds offer “more options for success.”

CENTRAL • Matt Rohrig, Iowa
Matt Rohrig, 30, is from Orient, Iowa.
Size and scope of operation:
Rohrig currently runs about 60-70
Yorkshire and crossbred sows for the
production of showpigs and breeding stock. About half of the sows are
purebred Yorkshires.
Pork leadership activities: Atlarge board member for Iowa Swine
Jackpot, president of Iowa Yorkshire Association, Iowa
Purebred Swine Council member, 2013 Iowa Master
Seedstock Producer Award and Iowa Pork Producers Association member.
Please describe what you feel the NSR and/or
AYC’s role should be in assisting purebred breeders compete in today’s market: One priority of the
NSR needs to be to record and maintain breed purity
in all four breeds. Additionally, NSR needs to continue
to promote the use of purebred stock in all facets of the
industry – from the commercial side to the junior show
side/NJSA. I also believe that within the Yorkshire breed
and the AYC, we need to remember to focus on what
Yorkshire hogs are all about – being the mother breed.
In an era where many are worried about making purebreds compete with crossbreds in the show ring, we
sometimes forget that every breed has a purpose and a
priority – they don’t all have to look the same. Within the
Yorkshire breed, I feel it is important we have building
foundation type females in our focus – it is the cornerstone of the breed, and it will continue to give breeders
an edge in an extremely competitive marketplace.

Child: Maddie-14
Favorite part of being a “Show Mom”:
Everything that goes with that special title: the quality time we
spend together in the barn, walking pigs and traveling to shows
is one of my favorite parts; watching her from the other side of
the fence become a better and stronger person, because she is
involved in the livestock industry. That’s also an awesome part of being a “Show Mom.”
Proudest “Show Mom” Moment:
My proudest moment was when Maddie finally won her first belt buckle at the Western Regional. She had been second
several times and wanted to win the belt buckle so badly. The smile on her face, when they handed it to her, could
have lit up all of California. It was awesome to see all her hard work pay off. But, I am super proud of her everytime
she steps in the ring or competes at another contest, at any given show, and gives it 110 percent.
Your ability to drive a stock trailer is best described as: Fast and furious, but
forward only please! Thank you to all of you out there that have backed up a trailer for me.
Favorite NJSA event: We have been to all the NJSA events and each one of them has their own personality. I really do enjoy each one of them for different reasons. It was fun last year at Eastern Regional when we had
to take our passports so we could go to the Canadian side of NIagra Falls. We have taken a lot of stuff to pig shows
before, but we never had to pack our passports.
Your official “Show Mom” show day duties include: Prepping all the pigs for their classes.
I am usually the one back at the pens, since Maddie and Eric seem to think I get too nervous up at the ring.
Item that you never leave for a show without: Pedigrees and health papers — you can buy
anything else along the way. Oh, and my showman, since I only have one.
One way you were able to save the day or avert a crisis as a “Show Mom”:
I cannot think of a particular incident, but I always pack my cape for shows, just in case I have to swoop in and save
the day.
Trick to keep those show clothes clean: I have no tricks up my sleeve. Dirty clothes are just
part of showing. My only tip would be to become friends with your dry cleaners.
Best tip you can give to other “Show Moms”: Enjoy! Another mom once told me when you have
kids the days are long, but the years are short. Any parent that has a kid showing livestock knows how long the days
can be, and then you look up and the entire season is over.

What a great time of the year to gather in Austin, Minn.,
at the Mower County Fairgrounds for the National Barrow Show®. While this year’s temperatures were much
warmer than what most would have preferred, the attendance and quality of stock was as good as ever.
The Duroc show had many highlights, as usual, but I want
to take time to visit about the Hog College® animals to start. The
Duroc gilt was bred by Bill and Jana Range of Waterloo, Ill. This
was the Range family’s first Hog College® animal, and what a great
one she was! She was sired by the popular Huinker boar, Trifecta,
and out of the Champion Duroc Female from Oklahoma City
two years ago. This lady was sound and productive in her look.
She was absolutely phenomenal on her feet and legs, and had a
beautiful, feminine look. Dick and Zack Howell of Maroa, Ill., are
sure to give this one a fair chance to produce at a high level. The
Duroc boar came from the John Huinker program in Decorah,
Iowa. Many pages of Duroc history can be written about this firm,
and the boar selected from John’s program represents years and
years of performance and production. This son of Red Draw 29-1
was tremendous on his feet and legs and could go all day long. He
was easy moving, had a lot of power and as good of an underline
as any red boar in the drive. This guy will make breeding hogs for
Bill and Bane Bates, Gilson, Ill., and allow them to build a sow
herd as productive as any. A special thank you goes to the Range
and Huinker families for allowing us to utilize their outstanding
animals and represent the Duroc breed on Hog College® Row.
The Duroc show was another outstanding opportunity to
strengthen breeding programs across the country. Many good
boars and gilts traded ownership and got great new homes. This
year’s Premier Sire was CAIN2 King 1-1, owned by Cain Super
Sires, Chariton, Iowa, and this year’s Reserve Premier Sire was
SWSWO Wis Okie 1-8, owned by Terry and Blake Schmaling,
Delavan, Wis.; Rick May, Ada, Okla.; and Jerry McLemore,
October/November 2013
OctNov 2013 form.indd 37
Ninnekah, Okla. Congratulations to these outstanding firms.
The Champion Boar came out of the youngest class and was
shown by the David Martin Family of Marion, Iowa. Sired by
last year’s Hog College® boar, Bases Loaded, this dude had lots
of great breeding value. Really opened up and a tremendous
look, this guy had lots of muscle shape from end-to-end and is
sure to generate winning barrows and gilts across the country.
Thank you to the Martin Family for sharing such an intriguing
breeding piece, and congratulations to RAR Genetics, Aplington,
Iowa, for an outstanding purchase to stand alongside his daddy.
The Reserve Champion Boar was shown by John Huinker
of Decorah, Iowa. A son of Asia, this guy truly represented the
Huinker program and red hogs in general. This one was really
opened up, had a tremendously big rib cage in him and could go
all day long. He is sure to get a fair chance at Cain Super Sires.
Call early and book often on this great pair of young boars.
The second place boar in Class 1 was shown by young Travis
Hamilton of Model, Colo. I will be real honest with you, I don’t
know what impressed me more, the job this young man did
driving his boar or how impressive the boar was himself. Travis
and his family are to be commended for putting together a real
breeding piece for the public to view. Sired by the great Royal
Flush boar at Top Cut with a pedigree that combined the old
Guy Jackson sow at Brandon Ogle’s on both sides, this one is
sure to get lots of use. This young boar was stout and opened up
and had a winning-barrow presence and look. Congratulations
to Swine Genetics International, Cambridge, Iowa, on a great
purchase. The third place boar in Class 1 was shown by the Devin
Goehring Family of Lowell, Wis. A son of King, this guy was
as well built and stout featured as any in the show. Barrows and
gilts with this kind of skeleton will win all day long. This guy was
one of the most intriguing breeding pieces in the show. He will
be open to the public at A Cut Above Sires in Benedict, Neb.

Shows & Sales
Class 2 was won by Mappes Durocs, Moore Okla., with a
son of Bren. This rascal was really opened up and might have
read with as much muscle and power as any hog in the show. He
had a great big skull, was really stout featured and looked like a
he-hog. He was purchased by Beise Brothers and will stand at
North Iowa Boar Stud in Buffalo, Minn. Bill and Jana Range
drove a very impressive son of Earthquake into second in Class
2. This rascal had a good look and great shape. This one was
built right and opened up from end-to-end with great power.
Class 3 was won by a Trifecta son from the Range firm.
Another boar that had lots of breeding value, this one offered
extra power and opened-up with dimension in a bigger-thanaverage package and handled it very well. I thought Bill Range
brought an excellent set of boars for everyone to view. Eggers
and Sampson of State Center, Iowa, were second in class with
a Chainsaw son that was extra attractive and good skeletoned.
This one was tall fronted and read with a really nice shape.
The final class of boars was won by the Reserve Champion
Boar of Huinker’s and followed by a pair of Huinker boars in
second and third. The boar that was second was as sound and
flexible as any. This guy was tall fronted and really extended on
both ends. He took a super long stride on both ends and had good
shape. Klemmensen Farms of Blooming Prairie, Minn., will give
him a good chance. The boar in third was maybe as opened up
in his blade and hip as any. He was big in his kind and had lots
of width and dimension throughout. He will get a fair chance for
the Earnhart Family in Albion, Ind. Howard Parrish, Edon, Ohio,
had another boar that needed to be discussed. This son of Roger
B was one of the most interesting hogs in the show. He offered as
much bone and looseness of skeleton as you could expect. This
one was really immature and extended off of both ends. He will
get a good chance for the Malcolm firm of Huntertown, Ind.
The gilt show was full of breeding pieces that got good homes.
The youngest class of the day was lead off by Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa, with a daughter of Ice Chest. This gal had lots
of power and was really opened up and went to the Frey firm in
Columbus, Wis. The David Martin Family was second in class
with a daughter of Bases Loaded. This one was sound and square
and had a great look and build. She looked like a female but had
great muscle shape from end-to-end. Randy Schroht of Owatonnia, Minn., will give her a fair chance. John Huinker was third in
the youngest class with one that had lots of fans. If you wanted
one with big feet, a big rib cage and lots of muscle, then you were
looking at the right one. Mappes Durocs will put this one to
work, and I am sure we will hear of great things from this female.
Mappes Durocs led off Class 2 with a daughter of Red Man.
She offered lots of length and femininity, but had plenty of muscle
and shape in a really flexible and loose skeleton. The Smith Brothers in Elkhart, Ill., will make this one famous. Giertz and Larson of
38 • SEEDSTOCK EDGE
OctNov 2013 form.indd 38
New Windsor, Ill., were second in class with a little longer-bodied,
bigger-outlined gilt that still had lots to her. This one could still flex
and go with the best of them, and will go to work for the Anderson
firm in Lyons, Neb. Greg Ruppert of Des Moines, Iowa, also had
an interesting breeding piece. Not as fluffy as some, but probably
as big footed and flexible in her build. Watch the Rick May ranch
of Ada, Okla., for something to come from this interesting female.
Class 3 was led off by Tyler McCallister of Pine River,
Minn., with his daughter of Red Rum. This gal was sound,
good legged and really extended on both ends, and will go
to work for Graff Showpigs of Juneau, Wis. In second was
a Lance and Mitchell Westcamp, Groveport, Ohio, entry,
sired by The Beast. This gal had lots of shape and looked
like she could generate some big-time barrows. She got a
good home with Dan Gunderson of Le Sueur, Minn.
Class 4 had an impressive Rodibaugh female from Rensselaer, Ind., as its winner. A daughter of Carl, this lady was big
in her kind, plenty stout featured and had lots of muscle shape
from end-to-end. She can make barrows or boars, depending
on your preference. Second in the class was shown by McGrew
Showpigs of Good Hope, Ill. This lady was the longest-bodied,
levelest-designed and best-looking gilt in the whole show. She was
great on her feet and legs and is sure to breed on. Both of these
gilts sold to Dakota Gold Showpigs in Hitchcock, S. D. They
made great purchases with two of the better gilts in the show.
Class 5 contained the Grand and Reserve Grand Females.
Iowa State University showed this year’s champion. A daughter
of Firestone, this gal was as big ribbed and productive as any hog
of any breed. She was tremendous in her width and performance
and, yet, handled it really well. Dan’s Durocs, Manito, Ill., is
sure to give this highly-educated female a good home and a fair
chance. John Huinker was in next with the Reserve Grand Female.
A daughter of Asia, this one had big time power. She was huge
chested and had extra power from one end to the other. Another
really big-ribbed, big-volumed female that offers lots of breeding
value for her new owner, Larry Thorsen of Morris, Ill. Larry should
have fun breeding good red hogs out of this one for a long time.
A huge thank you goes to Heath Nelson of Wakonda, S.D.,
for an excellent job of sorting a very good set of red hogs, and for
giving us your honest and professional opinion. Also, thanks to
Harold Hodson of Cambridge, Iowa, for his assistance in working with Heath in the ring. Many thanks go to Kevin Wendt,
Irwin, Ohio, for another thorough and professional job of selling
purebred hogs. The Mower County Fairgrounds crew does
things as well as any and thanks, again, for all they do for us.

From
the Field
by Ralph Doak, NSR Field Representative
The fact is we need breeders to bring more good Hampshire
boars to the National Barrow Show®. The top end of the boars was
great; we just need more of them. The Grand Champion Boar was
from Jason Kuehn of Dewitt, Iowa. He was a big, heavy-boned
hog that had good feet and legs. He took a good, long stride and,
being sired by SRF2 Brass Knuckles 9-7, you knew he would be
extremely sound.
A son of BRJL0 Open Range 34-4 was named Reserve
Champion Boar. He was a medium-framed hog that balanced well
and made an excellent reserve champion for Range and Theobald
of Waterloo, Ill. This one could sire boars, barrows or gilts and do
it quite well.
The Hog College® Boar for 2013 was from Delaney Young of
Agency, Mo. This hog was tall fronted and heavy structured. He
was a boar with excellent muscle shape, and looked like one that
would be able to sire structure and muscle. He was the top-selling
Hampshire boar at $6,500 to Shaffer’s Goldrush of Albany, Ind.
Mark Willard had a wide-sprung, big-ribbed son of JL1 He’s
Back 10-7. His entry came from Bowen, Ill., to win Class 2. A
HH0 Home Boy 100-3 sow was his mother, and he looked like a
boar that could sire some width and power.
One of the stoutest boars of the show came from Katie
Stutzman of Waldron, Mich. He was a son of NEI2 Huey 6-7 and
an Augusta 18-1 sow. I really liked how this guy reached out of his
front end and all of his balance.
The Grand Champion Hampshire Gilt was from H&H
Hampshires of Greenfield, Ohio. A daughter of GMW1 Hats Off
9-9, I loved this gal for her look, balance and design. This is one
that could make your herd boar famous. If this lady gets mated to
the right boar, we will hear lots about her offspring in 2014.
October/November 2013
OctNov 2013 form.indd 43
Michael Lackey told me the search for the Hampshire Hog
College® gilt was over after he had been to Rasmussen Swine Farm
at Hurley, S.D. He was certainly right. This daughter by JLM0
TCG Augusta 24-3 was feminine, yet stout. She was loose jointed,
yet sound. She had all of the muscle you would want. This is a real
foundation lady here.
Randy Wirt and family of Parker, S.D. were the exhibitors of
the Reserve Champion Gilt. She was sired by RWF9 Black Belt
63-1. This female had great bone with a good hip and great feet.
She balanced well and had a wide, sturdy hip and good shoulder
blade. The Wirt family let go of a good one here.
Another gilt that had some real positives was the Dean Myhre
gilt from Caledonia, Minn. Dean brought a daughter of CPT2
Game On 13-8, and had a good plan, when she went on the
trailer. Deep, wide, feminine, yet bold in her overall makeup, this
female could raise a herd boar.
Peter Farms of Mendon, Ill., had a gilt sired by DMP0 Frozen
in Time 31-2. This was a big-ribbed gilt that just needed a week,
and look out. She could make a sow to build a herd around.
One other gilt that was very popular was the gilt from Gibson
Girls of Circleville, Ohio. She was sired by GBSN2 The Shaft 38-1
and out of a Home Boy 100-3 sow. Huge in her rib, wide chest
floor, level topped and a sound moving gal, H.L. had plans for this
one. A great set of Hampshire females were in Austin, Minn.
The Premier Sire this year was JLM1 Pivot Point 13-2, owned
by Top Cut Genetics, Farmland, Ind. Reserve Premier Sire was
JL1 He’s a Ten 10-10, owned by Earl Cain and family of
Chariton, Iowa.

LANDRACE
From
the Field
by Brian Anderson, NSR Field Representative
The National Barrow Show® is not only a wonderful time
of year to gather and visit with fellow breeders, but it is also a
great opportunity to get together, study and talk about quality stock. This year’s Landrace show was no different. While
there were not great numbers, the show still provided a
fun and exciting set to work through. Brad Mortensen of
Kent City, Mich., was given the distinction of judging the
Landrace show and offered many thoughts and promising
views, while doing so. Thanks, “Mort,” for a great job!
The Hog College® Landrace Boar was driven by the Cedar
Ridge Show Herd of Red Bud, Ill., and was an outstanding
individual. Whenever you study Landrace hogs and pedigrees,
you are sure to see the CR herdmark pop up in most of the
lineage of champion Landrace hogs, today. This son of Excellerator offered a tremendous amount of value and good. He
was a really big-bodied hog that had lots of power and handled
it very well. I would describe this one as very versatile in his
ability to do so many things for this powerful breed. Scott and
Sydney Rohls of Greensburg, Ind., made a wise $1,000 investment and are sure to make this guy famous. Lance and Mitchell
Westcamp, Groveport, Ohio, drove the Champion Landrace
Boar at the 2013 NBS®. This rascal had plenty of power and
shape and handled it very well. To put this kind of mass and
power into one package and handle it as well as he did is impres-
sive. This one put lots of good into one complete package.
A super set of gilts showed up for evaluation. Young Bobby
Batson of Wilmington, Ill., drove this year’s Hog College®
Landrace Female. She put together an impressive show campaign
and was very deserving of this honor. She was a tremendous
female. Big-bodied, sound and great look, this impressive female
just combined so many things that are important and valuable in
this great breed. She got a new home with the Behrends Farms in
Clifton, Ill., at $1,500. McGrew Showpigs of Good Hope, Ill.,
drove this year’s Champion Landrace Female. This daughter of
Green Top General was loaded full of power and was extra stout
and opened up from end-to-end. She is sure to generate well at
her new home with Carroll Family Farms in Austin, Minn. The
Reserve Champion Female was another really good female from
the Cedar Ridge Show Herd. This one looked like a female. She
had extra length on both ends and was so feminine and correct in
her make. She looked like the kind that will be around for a long
time and make a great momma. Cailyn Andrews, Lawrenceville,
Ill., will give this one a fair chance. Lance and Mitchell Westcamp
brought a powerful female to end up in third. Barrow-maker
deluxe would be a good way of describing this one. Lots of dimension and stoutness from end-to-end, this one will get a chance for
Andrew Foster of Owosso, Mich., to make the next great ones.

From
the Field
by Michael Lackey, NSR Field Representative
The second week in September is a favorite for many in
our industry. It’s a special time because the World Series of
Swine Shows has rolled around, and it’s time to attend the
National Barrow Show® in Austin, Minn. This year’s event
was no different. We were greeted with warmer than normal
temperatures and an amazing set of breeders and hogs. Mike
McCoy of Bloomingburg, Ohio, sorted the Yorkshire ring
for a second year at this prestigious event. Mike always takes
a no-nonsense attitude to sorting hogs and does a great job!
Mike, thanks for your time and effort.
The Premier Yorkshire Sire was awarded to CDO1
Benchpress 263-6, owned by Jim Grimm of Maynard, Iowa,
and Chuck and Ben Olsen of Irene, S.D. The Reserve Premier
Yorkshire Sire honor was presented to Rodney Spinler, N.Y.,
for SS1 About Time 59-2. Congratulations to both these
firms for an excellent set of hogs.
This year’s Champion Yorkshire Boar has got me excited
because he is a good one! Congratulations to Grimm Purebreds, Maynard, Iowa, for letting this son of JGR1 Pierce
25-6 go. This is one big-footed, heavy-structured Yorkshire
boar. He is square at the ground, wide in his chest and has a
massive shoulder that opens into a huge rib cage. He is square
and correct in his hock and has the ideal frame and muscle
for making barrows. Plus, he should have the ability to make
the next generation of females better. If you are serious about
breeding better Yorkshires, give Swine Genetics International
of Cambridge, Iowa, a call to book semen. They partnered
with Dick Kuecker and Sons, Algona, Iowa, and bid $10,000
to take this Yorkshire boar home.
Next to the ring was the 2013 Yorkshire Hog College®
Boar. Thank you to George and Eric Watson of Hillsboro,
Ky., for letting this son of CDO2 Crazy Bone 70-2 be put
on Hog College® Row. This boar offers a lot of good to the
October/November 2013
OctNov 2013 form.indd 49
breed. He is tall fronted, really correct in his top line and is
ideal in his frame and length of body for making breeding
hogs. This guy has a great shape to his rib, he is square at his
knee and great in the angles to his hip, hock and rear pastern.
He is a sound moving boar that can really flex out of his hip.
Premium Blend Genetics of Arlington, Ind., paid $14,000 to
load this young herdsire on their trailer.
I would describe the Reserve Champion Yorkshire Boar as
one that will not get you into any trouble. He was exhibited
by Charles Real of Marion, Texas. This son of CDO1 Prestige
87-2 has great show ring appeal from the side. He is tall
fronted, level designed and correct in his ham-loin junction.
He is a square-built hog that is wide set through his center
and lower skeleton, tracks away with genuine base width and
is sound. He sold to Pink Genetics of Kenosauqwa, Iowa, for
$400.
Lorenzen Farms of Chrisman, lll., made their way to the
sale ring next with a son of CDO2 Crazy Bone 70-2. Tracy’s
boar looks like a young Yorkshire herdsire should; he reads to
be a later-maturing hog as you study him. His toes all point
in the same direction, and he hits the surface with a square,
big toe. He is heavy structured for his age, has a square turn
to the base of his rib cage and tracks away with width between
his hocks. He has a square, muscular turn down his top and a
big, muscular hip. Mark Larson of Woodhall, Ill., bid $1,000
to take this young prospect home.
Wayne J. Huinker of Decorah, Iowa, drove the winning
entry from the oldest class of the day to the sale ring next.
This son of SS1 About Time 59-2 is really complete! He’s
good footed, clean jointed and has a good running gear. This
hog is open in his center body, wide based and has plenty of
muscle. He should work well for Hubly Farms of Faribault,
Minn. They paid $600 to take this guy home.

Shows & Sales
The gilt sale began with a great female. Congratulations to
Grimm Purebreds of Maynard, Iowa, on this year’s Champion Yorkshire Female at the NBS®. This daughter of CDO1
Benchpress 263-6 is stout and durable in her structure and
big ribbed. When you let this girl out of the pen, she floats
around the ring, she is sound and flexible, she’s about right
from a muscle standpoint, and still very correct in terms of
balance. She will make the next generation of Yorkshire hogs
better for Joe Coyne of Pontiac, Ill. for $2,800.
The Reserve Champion Gilt won the youngest class of
the day. She is sired by HOBW2 Show Cat 1-9. Congratulations to Western Illinois University of Macomb, Ill. for your
Reserve Champion Female. This gilt looks like she could
generate winning barrows. She’s big footed, heavy boned, plus
deep centered, big ribbed and sound. She is feminine in her
build and has a great look from the profile. R&K Show Pigs
of Fulda, Minn., bid $1,900 so they could load her on their
trailer.
I would like to thank Hilman B. Schroeder of Sauk City,
Wis., for stepping forward to represent the Yorkshire breed
on Hog College® Row. He brought us a daughter of HSO2
Packer 14-9 that is really complete and looks like a Yorkshire
female should. This lady is correctly balanced, feminine, has a
great underline and is sound; she is really hard to pick a hole
in. She sold to Gunderson Farms of Raymond, Minn., for
$1,250.
The next gilt in the ring won the oldest class of the day
exhibited by Lockman Genetics of Dighton, Kan. She is
sired by ARTD2 Bootlegger 15-3, the 2012 Hog College®
Yorkshire Boar. Steve’s gilt is square and genuine underneath,
heavy structured and durable in her look. She will make a
nice addition for Victor Israelsen of Logan, Utah. He paid
$1,000 to take her home.
Next up was the winning entry from Class 3, exhibited
by Vista Brook Farms of Danville, Ky. This daughter of SS1
About Time 59-2 is heavy muscled, and has a big square top
and huge hip. If you were looking to have muscle from the female side, then this was the gilt for you. She sold to Diamond
V Showpigs of Adams, Minn., for $500.
This year’s gilt show was loaded with a functional set of
breeding hogs. A huge and special thank you goes to Dan
Baker of West Lafayette, Ind., for another great job on the
block. Thank you also to all of the ring help. We could not do
it without you! See you all at Duncan!

Champion Crossbred Boar – 1st Class 1
Shown by Steve & Derek Earnhart, Ind.
WIZARD x ANTHRAX
Sold to Steve & Derek Earnhart, Ind., for $1,000
From the Field
by Ralph Doak, NSR Field Representative
Warm, hot, cool and beautiful all describe the weather in Austin, Minn., during the 2013 National Barrow Show®. I certainly
appreciate all the work from the Hormel folks, and of course Joel,
to make our event one that is pleasant from start to finish.
The crossbred boar show was not big in numbers, this year.
The Champion Boar was a fresh, young-made hog from Steve
and Derek Earnhart of Albion, Ind. He had great muscle,
scanning a 10.3 LEA and only .52 of fat. This boar could help
maintain muscle and freshness that is so important, when making an outstanding set of prospects. Sired by Wizard and out of
an Anthrax sow, he should be muscle guaranteed.
Schwecke Genetics of Gibbon, Minn., exhibited the Reserve
Champion Boar. He was sound in his movement, level in his
design and a stout-featured hog in his skull and blade. This hog
was sired by Tree Shaker and out of a Stick This sow, and had a
big 11.6 LEA at 375 pounds.
A heavy-boned, wide-based hog from Baily Sonka of Newhall,
Iowa, was next in the ring. Sired by All Star and out of a Super

Reserve Champion Crossbred Boar – 1st Class 2

TREESHAKER x STICK THIS
Sold to Bruce Ihnen, Minn., for $1,000
Monster sow, this was one stout-made, sound-footed hog that
could downsize a little and give his offspring great feet and bone.
A big, good-structured boar from Jake and Kaylee Keppy,
Durant, Iowa, sired by Bone Collector, was in next. A really
long-bodied hog with a big top and hip, he should do a nice job
siring muscle.
I really liked the Wampler Farms entry from Milton, Ind., for
his extra top and hip to make meat hogs. He just needed a bit
more bone and look out.
S&M Hamps of Caledonia, Minn., brought a really good
Hampshire boar with a little too much white. He was good
boned, sound footed and loaded with shape and design. This
boar was sired by CPTS2 Game On 13-9 and out of a CDO0
Point Taken 257-1 sow.
The only problem was we just didn’t have enough good
crossbred boars at the National Barrow Show®. Make a special
litter for next year and you be well rewarded.
A big thanks to Mike McCoy of Bloomingburg, Ohio, for
a really good job of judging at the National Barrow Show®. The
future is in good shape with thinkers like Mike and his rock-solid
opinion.

®
Mower County Fairgrounds • Austin, Minn.
During the 2nd Annual Hog College® Home Run Drive, a three-member panel
consisting of Ron Iverson, Iowa; Aaron Schafer, Ill.; and J.R. Reid, Mo., chose the
individuals they felt best represented their breed and the industry for the "Chairman's
Choice" award.
Collegiate judging teams also chose a "College Choice." The Ohio State University
and Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College both received a $100 cash prize and
subscriptions to Seedstock EDGE and Breeder's Digest for aligning their choices closest to
the committee.

BREEDING ANIMAL SALE
 Breeding animal classes will be divided into classes as equal as possible by farrowing date.
 A minimum of 60% of the number of each sex (boars & gilts) shown will be selected for
the sale. These animals will be selected with no set number selling from any single class.
Animals not selected for the sale can be consigned to the sale for an additional fee of $20
per head; this must be done by the conclusion of the show. If the animal sells, the fee will
be applied toward the sale commission. If the animal does not sell, the fee is forfeited.
 All animals selected and cataloged for the sale MUST go through the auction. Sale commission
will be 15% for all animals. If an animal that is selected and cataloged for sale does not go
through the sale ring, the exhibitor will be banned from exhibiting at NSR events for one
year and will be charged 15% of the average selling price of their respective breed sale. This
amount must be paid before reinstatement will be allowed. The exception to this rule will be if
an animal has become injured or ill and is inspected by a NSR staff member prior to the sale.
 The NSR acts only as the agent between buyer and seller. If proper
payment is made by the buyer in a timely manner, the NSR will make

agrees that he/she will promptly refund the full purchase price to the buyer. There will

Peter Farms
In the days when repurposing was done more for
practicality than for decorating, the Peter men started
raising hogs in a chicken coop on the family’s rented
Illinois farm. The patriarch, Don, spent his days as
herdsman for J.C. McLean, owner of the prestigious
Dor Mac Angus Farm, but at home he was a hog man.
He started with Berkshires when his boys, Mark and
Kirk, were young, then expanded to Hampshires, in
1962. Mark bought his own bred Hampshire gilts, in
1968, from Hamp-An Farms and Jim Foster, and kept
them at the “poor farm,” an old dilapidated farm his
father owned five miles down the gravel road.
Two short years later, Mark headed off to college
at Western Illinois University and spent three
years working with Bruce Egnell, manager
of the boar test station at the school.
“It was the ideal setting for a young person
excited about being a hog breeder. I got to meet and
interact with prominent breeders, of all breeds,
whose boars were on test at Western. I also got to
know a lot of fellow hog enthusiasts,” Mark says.
Mark and his high school sweetheart, Jill, were
married in May of 1972. They lived in a trailer on a
rented five acre tract and kept a handful of their
own Hampshire sows under a grove of trees behind
the trailer. Jill is still a source of support and
encouragement for Mark, his pigs and Peter Farms.
As graduation approached, Mark was faced with a
decision: take a full-time job and raise hogs on
the side, or make a career out of raising hogs. With
encouragement from his father and Ruben Edwards,
he and Jill moved their eight sows home to Mendon,
Ill., to join the other 80 sows waiting for them.
For the next three decades, Don, Kirk and Mark would
build, grow and change their operation. The farm
started with mainly Hampshires, but added Yorkshires
and Durocs. They focused primarily on female production
until 1992, when they started working with Premier Swine
Breeding Systems. They sold nearly 1,000 boars each
year for 16 years through Premier, until the industry
demand changed. At that point, Peter Farms went back
to its roots of purebred Hampshires and showpigs.

Peter discu

pick at the 2 their Champion Hamp
shire Boar
000 World
Pork Expo.
Today, Kirk’s son, Karl, has joined the operation.
Together, the family has 80 purebred Hampshires
and 25 crossbred showpig-based sows. The remnants
of the commercial production can still be seen,
as these sows are all raised on the slattedfloor barns built in 1995. Perhaps, the most
important echo of their commercial background is
the emphasis on raising productive females.
“In any breeding herd, the females are the essential
element. Any success that you have is tied to
maintaining a productive, structurally-correct
female line, whatever species you are in. Over the
years, our reputation has been built on that. Our
sows are functional and correct,” Mark says.
Maintaining the integrity of their females is a lesson
the Peter boys learned from Don’s days with cattle.
The females at Dor Mac Angus Farm made up a very
correct, very productive cow herd, and Peter Farms
tried to follow that same pattern with their sows.
“If you would look at our operation, we have some basic
principles that we have carried through multiple
decades of hog production that are just as valuable
and applicable today as they were in 1960 when we
started raising hogs: soundness of feet and legs,
reproductive soundness, just basic pig production
things. You have to bring the other characteristics
into your pigs that are sought after at the time,
but if you stay functional and reproductive, you
are always going to be in the game,” Mark says.
Mark learned more than the importance of good females
from watching his father. He also learned about
good business and the importance of integrity.
“We just try to pattern the way we do business after
the way dad did, by doing things the right way and
treating people the right way,” Mark says. “We span a lot
of years of raising hogs, and we try to stay relevant
today, but the fundamentals will never go out of style.”
A quick glimpse into how some of our industry’s premier
producers got their start in the purebred swine business.
