Welcome to the latest sale offering from Bar Pipe Hereford Ranch. We believe this is the most powerful, uniform set of bulls and bred heifers to date and we are proud to stand behind them! Our philosophy on breeding cattle remains unchanged, we believe in paying attention to the science that is available while keeping our program firmly rooted in the practices of profitable ranch operations. We believe the traits we measure and select for will make a positive economic impact at both our ranch and anyplace else our bulls are working. We are creating value. This focus on profitability means that we pay attention to the fundamentals. We run our cowherd in a manner that eliminates the need for extra labour and utilizes the forage and winter grazing opportunities we have available to us here in the foothills of Alberta. Our cows calve on pasture in April and May and we continue to shorten the breeding season to select for even greater fertility.
(L to R)Andrew, Jay, Emma and Lucy Cross Doug and Judy Finseth (Managers)
All of our bull calves will be enrolled again in the Hereford Residual Feed Intake Project .
If you are interested in the data we have been collecting it will be available on our website: www.barpipe.com. You are welcome to tour our program anytime and feel free to give us a call if you have any questions. Jay Cross 403-978-2767 jay@barpipe.com 2

RIVATE TREATY ALE BULLS
Consistency and uniformity are the keywords for this group of bulls. They are a group that display overall length, depth and thickness while retaining lots of style and eye appeal. They are rugged, free-moving and we select for good disposition. The bulls have been worked on horseback and are dog-broke. We collected carcass ultrasound data at 1 year of age and all the bulls were enrolled in the Hereford Residual Feed Intake trial. We have included some of the data in our catalogue, but will post complete data on our website. New this year, in keeping with the direction of the beef industry as a whole, we have dehorned our Horned bulls. They will be easier to get through your working system, will fit better in multi-breed operations and are easier on hay feeders! Many of our bulls are sold sight unseen and we offer volume discounts. Call Doug at 403-852-3865 if you have any questions.

Polled {DLF IEF HYF} From Durbin Creek Ranch, WY this 2 year old is long, thick and deep yet still clean fronted and eye-appealing. He is loaded with pigment and style. Low birthweight is a bonus. We are looking forward to our first set of calves in 2015.
Polled {DLF IEF HYF} 141Y is a typical Anchor 44U son. His first calf crop out of heifers calved really easy yet still had plenty of performance once they hit the ground. His dam is a 12 year old Ribstone 64H daughter that has been a consistent producer in our herd.

The foundation sire of our polled program, 44U has crossed very well on our Ribstone 64H daughters and granddaughters. In giving him our best horned cows we are counting on developing a strong genetic base for our polled division.
POLLED Anchor 44U is the kind of bull ranchers appreciate. He is deep bodied, long sided and shows lots of muscle expression, traits he has been passing on to his calves.
Semen Available. Canada/USA/Australia
He is fully pigmented and short marked with good hair and bone. He has made confirmed horned bull buyers take a second look! 44U bulls have been very popular with our customers. In 2014/15 they sell by private treaty and at the Medicine Hat Bull Sale. SIRE:

Cracker Jack caught our eye in Delaney's carload at the Denver Stock Show. This deep bodied bull has extra length and a square quarter that carries down into his hock. He packs lots of maternal strength into his pedigree. We really liked his mother and grandmother and ET sisters. POLLED Cracker Jack was used on our Anchor 44U daughters and a AH JDH CRACKER JACK 26U ET young group of 38T daughters. JDH MS 15T WRANGLER 20W ET Owned with Lilybrook JDF AH 25L WRANGLER 15T ET Herefords.

Our catalogue is going to press earlier this year so the only data collected on our bull calves has been birthweight. We will post a list of bull calves on our website when they are weaned.
The 2014 crop will again be participating in the Hereford Residual Feed Intake study. They will be heading to either Olds College or the Cattleland Feedlot in early 2015. Stop by the yard to see them before they leave.

Use Bar Pipe bulls to Improve Your Bottom Line! We select for: √ Balanced Traits - Big growthy calves are great but selection for that alone will produce bigger cows that eat more than smaller ones. Balanced trait selection matters. √ Uniformity – Many visitors note the consistency of our cows and sale pen. We get this by sticking to a set of breeding goals that don’t compromise in one area in order to advance another. We achieve this by weaving different bloodlines as well as line breeding to elite sires. √ Fertility – A cow producing a calf every year is a given. 75 to 80 percent of our calves come in the first cycle. Less labour, extra pounds, and more uniform calves in the fall. √ Docility – Our cows and sale bulls are quiet and easy to handle. Temperament is heritable and affects the bottom line since easy to handle cattle require less labour and facilities, gain better and have better carcass quality in the feedlot, and are more fertile. √ Longevity or Stayability– A cow doesn’t start to return a profit until her third or fourth calf and so longevity is critical. It is impacted by structural soundness and fertility. While our job as breeders is to select for genetic improvement, which requires us to turn over the generations, 35% of our cows are older than 8 and up to 12 years of age . Herd bull 38T is a trait leader for stayability. √ Feed Efficiency – Since no one wants to have to pamper their cattle, we select for cattle that thrive on forage year round by relying on winter grazing and calving on pasture in April/May. To take this to the next level our entire 2012, 2013 and 2014 bull calf crops will participate in a feed efficiency trial The study is under the umbrella of the Canadian Hereford Association, University of Alberta, Olds College, Livestock Gentec and Cattleland Feeders. We believe this is an important economic trait and look forward to identifying individuals that excel within our herd. In addition to selecting for these traits, there are some things we don’t compromise on: Genetic integrity – With the advent of genomic tools, we test our herd sires to be free of known genetic abnormalities and participate in research to advance the discovery of markers of desirable traits. Serving the long term needs of our customers – For that to work, we need to know your operation and you need to see our whole cow herd, not just the few bulls at the bull sale… hence our focus on private treaty sales. 38
