This summer has certainly been one for the records. Although this summer was very hot and humid, this did not shy people away from the shows this summer. Missouri was well represented at the Junior National Hereford Expo in Indianapolis, IN with around 60 head of cattle and 25 exhibitors and their families. There were 80 head of Herefords exhibited at the Ozark Empire Fair and 196 head at the Missouri State Fair. What a great representation at all these events. As summer draws to an end, the sale season kicks in and the demand for our breed is stronger than it’s ever been. The board met at the state fair and decided to sponsor Hereford Influence feeder calf sales at the Miller County Sales facility starting in November. Check this issue for further details on upcoming sale dates. The Opportunity Sale is just around the corner and will be here before we know it. The Hereford weekend will kick off on Saturday, December 4 with the annual meeting and banquet followed by the Opportunity sale on Sunday, December 5. Start making plans to be in Sedalia for the Hereford weekend. We will have a block of rooms at the Best Western State Fair Inn so call now before you forget. If you ever have a concern or need assistance with anything, please do not hesitate to contact me or one of the board members. We would be glad to help. Looking forward to seeing everyone at sales this fall! Sincerely, Jimmie Butler Please let us know if we can be of assistance at the following sales that we are involved in this fall.

Here it is the middle of September already and the majority of the shows are behind us. In spite of withering heat at both the Ozark Empire and State Fairs, there were excellent Herefords in all the shows this summer. The Junior National Hereford Expo in Indianapolis had the cream of the young Herefords from across the nation and it ranked as one of the largest shows ever assembled by the JNHE. Many of the classes of both “Owned” and “Bred and Owned” heifers were made up of animals born within two days of each other. When they narrow the classes down that far you can be sure there are a lot of animals to work through. It is now time to turn at least part of our attention to the upcoming sale season. You will find several sale announcements in this issue, among them the Star Lake fall sale, MSU- Journagan Ranch sale, Grandview CMR sale, Reynolds Herefords sale, the Show-Me Classic, DeanaJak sale and last but certainly not least the Missouri Opportunity Sale. If you are looking to buy there are certainly plenty of options. Speaking of the Missouri Opportunity Sale and the Show-Me Classic, please be aware that the November 1st issue of the Missouri Hereford News is your best chance to advertise your consignment animals for these two sales. Your material for an ad needs to be to the editor no later than October 1st. If you are sending a print-ready ad you can have until the 10th of October. We have our usual array of features; Joe Rickabaugh is bringing us up to date on concerns from the AHA; there are roundups with photos from the summer shows; the junior page has JNHE and PRIDE Convention summaries as well as the new MJHA officers and the women’s page has new officers and some new money raising projects to announce. I would like to ask your help with one of my problems with the Post Office. Now that I am having the envelopes bar coded, they are telling me that some of the addresses that I have can not be coded because they have been replaced by a new address system. It does save a few cents if they can be coded and handled electronically. If you know that you have a newer address than the one I am using, could you please share it with me. The “route and box number” addresses seem to be most consistently kicked out. I would appreciate any help you can give me in my ongoing negotiations with the Post Office. I hope your summer has been good even though the weather has been a little crazy, some places lots of rain and other places really dry. Our one constant element would have to be the heat. Its a shame we can’t bottle it and save it for those biting cold days of winter. Remember not too long ago we were worrying about keeping those late winter/early spring babies warm so their ears wouldn’t freeze. I will look forward to seeing a lot of you around the sale rings this fall. Sue Hand The Porch A blonde teenage girl, wanting to earn some extra money for the summer, decided to hire herself out as a ‘handy-woman’ and started canvassing a nearby well-to-do neighborhood. She went to the front door of the first house, and asked the owner if he had any odd jobs for her to do. ‘Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint my porch,’ he said. ‘How much will you charge me?’ Delighted, the girl quickly responded, ‘How about $50?’ The man agreed and told her that the paint brushes and everything she would need was in the garage. The man’s wife, hearing the conversation said to her husband, ‘Does she realize that our porch goes ALL the way around the house?’ He responded, ‘That’s a bit cynical, isn’t it?’ The wife replied, ‘You’re right. I guess I’m starting to believe all those dumb blonde jokes. Later that day, the blonde came to the door to collect her money. ‘You’re finished already?’ the startled husband asked. ‘Yes, the blonde replied, and I even had paint left over, so I gave it two coats.’ Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50.00 and handed it to her along with a ten dollar tip. ‘And by the way,’ the blonde added, ‘it’s not a Porch, it’s a Lexus.’ Chiles Rellenos Bake 4 4-oz cans whole green chilies 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 1 lb ground beef 11/2 cups milk 1 onion, chopped 1 tsp salt 1 clove garlic, minced 1/4 tsp Tabasco sauce 3 cups grated cheddar cheese 1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese 4 eggs, beaten Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9X13 casserole dish. Slice open and remove the seeds from the chilies. Lay chilies from two cans flat on the bottom of the dish. In a skillet, cook the ground beef and drain grease. Add onion and garlic to meat and cook until onion is soft. Spoon the meat mixture over the chilies in the casserole dish. Add cheddar cheese in an even layer. Place remaining chilies evenly over cheese. Whisk together eggs, flour, milk, salt and Tabasco sauce. Pour mixture over the second layer of chilies. Sprinkle Monterey Jack cheese on top. Cover and bake for 25 minutes. Remove cover and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

If I had used all the pictures on winners who deserved to be recognized we would have had a 40 page issue and that would have broken the budget. Hopefully most of the Reserve Champions received mention in the little wrap up stories. We know who you are and offer our sincere congratulations for a job well done. 9 10 Ozark Empire Fair Has “Hot” Hereford Show A blazing sun shown down pushing the temperature close to 100 degrees as the Ozark Empire Fair’s Open Hereford Show got underway at 1:00 pm on August 4th. With 75 head entered, it was a fine showing of animals and a large crowd of viewers showed their appreciation for the quality and number. The show was judged by Tyler Atwood of Stillwater, Oklahoma. After the judge had reviewed all the classes, KJ 847P Breeze 984W owned by Joel Butler of Republic, Mo was named Grand Champion Female and JM Lady Mandie owned by Jett Bowers of Republic, MO was awarded the Reserve Champion ribbon. The Champion cow/calf pair was exhibited by Justin Hurst with L3 Keno Lace 531 ET and her bull calf, H2 Kace of Gold. In the bull classes the Grand Champion award went to Jonathan Bellis of Aurora, MO for his senior bull calf JDB GHCC 122L Entourage W112L. Joel Butler’s spring yearling bull, BPH 3242 Woodford 063W was named Reserve Champion. Photos from the Ozark Empire Fair appear as a courtesy of Joel Armstrong of Vantage Imaging.

From the AHA discovered by the newcomers to the Hereford showring is the disposition of the cattle. One item really caught my attention as I made my way through the Hereford tie stalls in Sedalia. One breeder put the epd graph charts for all of his animals on their stall cards. Show me another breed of cattle that had the same information on their stall cards. You would probably wear out a pair of shoes looking. It is great to see this breed bring cattle to the showring with solid numbers--Numbers that can work for both the seedstock and commercial industry. It is also nice for the cattle to retain some look for the showring as well and this was witnessed at the Missouri State Fair. Throughout late July and early August it was my privilege to visit many herds in Missouri to select cattle for the Missouri Opportunity sale slated for December 5. 2010. This sale returns to Sedalia and the offering appears to be stronger this year. More attention was given to cattle with a little more age. There will be more pairs and bred females this year in the sale. Several breeders opened the gate on the bred heifer pen and there will be several front line females in this category. The pairs will be stronger and more AI will be evident throughout the offering. It is also gratifying to see several first time consignors want to get involved. And they are getting involved with some stout individuals and opportunities for breeders across the nation. It will be fun to see the offering in the sale catalog. When this newsletter comes out we will be well into the fall sale season. There will be many opportunities between now and the end of the year to add to your programs. You are encouraged to look at the offerings via the Hereford World, sale catalogs, Hereford Marketplace on the Internet and many other avenues. If you need a sale catalog on a particular sale—call me and we will get you one. If you are looking for a particular animal or animals, if I can help in anyway, just let me know. Signing off this time a couple of things need to be said. Sue Hand does a wonderful job for the Missouri Hereford breeders with this newsletter—support it. This is a great promotional tool for your program and Herefords in Missouri. Hope to see you this fall at several Hereford events. State Fair and Missouri Opportunity Sale By Joe Rickabaugh The Missouri State Fair was one to witness this year. When the final animal walked through the ring a total of 196 Herefords made the showring journey during the show. This is quite a number of animals from one breed at any state fair. It was a good testament to the popularity of Herefords in the Midwest. It is a pretty safe bet that if this was not the largest breed show at the Missouri state fair it would have ranked in the top two. A couple of things come to mind thinking back on the Missouri State Fair Hereford show. First was the number of new breeders and first time exhibitors. This shows a renewed interest in the breed. The crowd around ringside was large for the entire show. Several breeders from other breeds took time to witness one of the strong state fair shows this year in Sedalia. The new breeders who have brought their animals to the state fair in the past few years are making their way to the top in several classes. The bar on quality is being raised and this was proven throughout the entire show. Another very encouraging ingredient was the number of junior exhibitors. Not only does this bode well for the breed but the juniors bring a youthful excitement to this breed. This was not only witnessed at the Missouri and Iowa State fairs this year but I bet the average age of the junior exhibitor at this year’s Junior National in Indy was not much over 12 years of age. Exciting times are ahead for this breed. It is interesting in traveling to various shows, the number of new families that have entered the Hereford ranks because it is fun to show Herefords. A trait not talked about enough in the cattle industry but one quickly A Good Woman is Hard to Find 12 Earl and Bubba are quietly sitting in a boat fishing, chewing tobacco and drinking beer when suddenly Bubba says, "Think I'm gonna divorce the wife - she ain't spoke to me in over 2 months." Earl spits overboard, takes a long, slow sip of beer and says, "Better think it over.............women like that are hard to find." State Fair FFA Show In the State Fair FFA Show on August 14th, KJ 847P Breeze 984W ET continued her winning ways by garnering the Grand Champion ribbon for Joel Butler of Republic, MO. The Reserve Champion designation went to a young heifer calf, JDB P098 Georgia X014 born January 29, 2010 and owned by Jon Bellis of Aurora, MO . Brianne Abramovitz won the Cow/Calf Division with her cow MHF 4S Willa 814U and her bull calf. The young entries were the big winners in the Bull Division. Jon Bellis won the Grand Champion ribbon with JDB GHCC 122L Outlook W110, born September 27, 2009 and a winter bull calf, BPH 3242 Pendleton 463W born November 12, 2009, owned by Joel Butler was named Reserve Champion. Joel Butler with his Grand Champion Heifer, KJ 847P Breeze 984 W ET. Jon Bellis with his Grand Champion bull JDB GHCC 1221 Outlook W110. State Fair 4-H Show Judge Chris Paulson had 70 head of Herefords to sort through in the State Fair 4-H Show on August 14. When he had finished his deliberations, he chose CPH Lauren 07U, owned by Julie Choate of Pleasant Hope, MO as the Grand Champion female and 4B Pinky 903 owned by Britney Adam of Clinton Co, MO as Reserve Champion. Justin Hurst of Nevada, MO won the Cow/Calf Division with K3 Keno Lace 531 ET and her bull calf. The Reserve Champion Cow/Calf pair was JC Annie 5325 exhibited by Cammie Ward of Linn County, MO. The Grand Champion bull was GPHF Mr. McDreamy 92R 917W shown by Jordann Gregory of Houstonia, MO and Kody Agee was awarded the Reserve Champion ribbon for his bull Grandview CMR Mr. Dom 9118. Three young ladies won the showmanship awards; Brooklyn Adam, Claire Ludwig and Julie Choate. Jordan Gregory with her Grand champion bull GPHF Mr. McDreamy.

John Rayfield of Texas A&M judged the Bred and Owned Heifers, Bred and Owned Bulls and the Cow-Calf pairs. His work was thorough and consistent. Cheryl Linthicum of Comfort, TX put in two long, hard days judging the Owned Heifers. She was very concerned with basic soundness of the animal as well as the more obvious cosmetic qualities. Mark McCully of Wooster Ohio, judged the steer show. He had to work his way through 133 steers and said they were all good quality that would work well in the industry. The Indiana State Fairgrounds provided an excellent venue for the show and all the activities. A note from Kathy Hello Juniors, I would like to take a minute and tell you about an exciting opportunity available to all junior Hereford members. This past August, four Missouri Junior Hereford Association members attended the PRIDE (Program Reaching Individuals Determined to Excel) Convention in Boise, Idaho. The week started with a pizza party and an introduction from the board along with a junior mixer. The next few days were filled with tours of Hereford operations including Shaw Cattle Co., Heritage Cattle Co., Split Butte Cattle Co., and Colyer Herefords. While touring these operations, juniors were able to learn, experience, and ask questions about all aspects of each ranching operation. Also, one of the main highlights of the trip was whitewater rafting. Members also attended leadership and team-building workshops conducted by the National Junior Hereford Board. PRIDE Convention is held every other year and changes locations each time it is held. I encourage all junior members to attend. Traveling to new places, viewing top Hereford operations around the country, meeting new friends, networking with others, and learning about the Hereford and beef cattle industries are all reasons to attend this great event!! One last note, don’t forget to take advantage of the scholarship opportunities available through the MHA, MJHA, Missouri Poll-ettes, Missouri Hereford Women, and the National Junior Hereford Association. Good luck to everyone with school and the fall showing season. Hope to see everyone this fall at shows and sales.

The bull she showed was named the Champion Hereford in many of the shows. They helped Brianne to be named top exhibitor over all breeds on the Missouri Club Calf circuit for 2010. 18 Missouri Hereford Women Good Day! Hereford families, I am Susan Ewing and I’m your new Missouri Hereford Women President. Andrea Butler has graciously accepted the Vice-President position along with Lisa Tribble as our Secretary/Treasurer. I was surprised with my nomination but I’m very excited about serving this organization. My personal goal is to gain unity and compassion among our families. In the barns this summer I saw a lot of, “lending a hand,” from our youth. I believe that is where it begins and it is a outstanding sight to see. The memories created at the last two Junior Nationals were unmeasurable for our family. I’m thrilled to be apart of this organization. At the State Fair, we discussed fundraising. Carrie Waller mentioned we could raise money from recycling at our events. We plan on gathering and selling our aluminum cans. Please consider donating to Missouri Hereford Women if you recycle cans on your farm. This would help us collect funds throughout the year. I look forward to seeing you at the American Royal and the Missouri Hereford Annual banquet and sale. If you need to make contact with me you can at 417.753.2329, 417.830.9431 or at [email protected].

Thank you to our Missouri Poll-Ettes for helping to serve at the Steak Fry, Barb Steiner, Barb Gregory, Susan Ewing and Robin Bartholomew. For applications contact: Jennifer Gregory-Sneed, 18430 Houston Road, Houstonia, MO 65333 or 660-568-0581 A prospective Missouri Hereford Queen getting pointers from a reigning Queen Maggie Ewing, left in the picture, daughter of Richard and Susan Ewing of Fordland, MO is getting good training in what is required of a Missouri Hereford Queen or Princess from Devann Gregory, daughter of Kevin and Barbara Gregory of Houstonia , MO, the current Missouri Polled Hereford Queen. Maggie even got some opportunities to practice this summer at the Ozark Empire and State Fair Hereford Shows. She could be seen graciously handing out ribbons to the various winners. When she gets a few more years of age she will be a well trained candidate. 19 Falling Timber Farm Butler Polled Herefords Predictable Performance Genetics Heifers and Bulls for Sale by Private Treaty Alfalfa Hay for Sale Glenn & Yvonne 636-433-2858 Jimmie, Andrea, Jocelyn & Joel Butler Joretta Butler 16777 Ridder Rd. • Marthasville, MO Email: [email protected] Website: fallingtimberfarm.com 4195 South Farm Road 53 Republic, MO 65738 Home (417) 732-6069 Cell (417) 838-4095 [email protected] McMillens Toothacre Ranch Since 1845 Polled Bland, MO 65014 John & Heidi 636-358-4161 J.L. and Fonda Trent and Mary 9128 W.

Main Street Maysville, MO 64469 816-449-2818 No one believes seniors . . . everyone thinks they are senile. An elderly couple was celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had moved back to their old neighborhood after they retired. Holding hands, they walked back to their old school. It was not locked, so they entered, and found the old desk they’d shared, where Andy had carved “I love you, Sally .” On their way back home, a bag of money fell out of an armored car, practically landing at their feet. Sally quickly picked it up and, not sure what to do with it, they took it home. There, she counted the money - fifty thousand dollars! Andy said, “We’ve got to give it back.” Sally said, “Finders keepers.” She put the money back in the bag and hid it in their attic. The next day, two police officers were canvassing the neighborhood looking for the money, and knocked on their door. “Pardon me, did either of you find a bag that fell out of an armored car yesterday?” Sally said, “No”. Andy said, “She’s lying. She hid it up in the attic. Sally said, “Don’t believe him, he’s getting senile” The agents turned to Andy and began to question him. One said: “Tell us the story from the beginning.” Andy said, “Well, when Sally and I were walking home from school yesterday ....” The first police officer turned to his partner and said, “We’re outta here!” 22 State Fair Steer Show The State Fair Steer Show was held Tuesday, August 17th. This show is divided into three divisions, 4-H Show, FFA Show and Carcass Steer show. These shows are especially lucrative for the winners because, in addition to their regular State Fair prize money, a group of about 25-26 Missouri breeders contributed money for an additional prize fund to be divided between the winners whose steers were born, bred and raised in Missouri. This year the qualifying winners received $500.00 each for Champion rank and $250.00 was awarded for Reserve champion ranking. In the 4-H Show , Cammie Ward of Linn Co. MO showed the Champion Steer that she had raised on her family’s farm. The Reserve Champion steer was shown by Jordann Gregory with a steer from her own family farm. Cammie Ward and her 4-H Show Chamption Steer. In the FFA Show, the Champion steer was exhibited by Brianne Abramovitz with an animal that she purchased from Duvall Polled Herefords of Lockwood, Mo. The Reserve Champion for purposes of the additional prize money was Tyler Erickson of Maysville, MO with a steer from the Erickson’s farm. David Vest, of Pilot Grove, MO, showed the Reserve Champion FFA Hereford steer but was not eligible for the extra prize money because his animal was purchased out of state. In the carcass steer competition Victoria Warden showed the Champion with a steer that she purchased from Butler Polled Herefords of Republic, MO At the end of the 4-H/FFA shows Brianne Abramovitz’ steer was also named the Over All State Fair Hereford Champion Steer.
