Benchmark Charolais Bull Sale March 22, 2014 · 1:30 p.m. Renfrew Pontiac Livestock Highway 17, Cobden, ON Please come early to view the bulls and join us for lunch. Auctioneer: Stewart E. James — 613-445-3269; Stewart James Jr. — 613-222-2815 (bilingual)
Welcome to the Annual Benchmark Bull Sale. Thank you to those who attended and purchased at last year’s sale. The Blackbern and WhiteWater bulls are being fed at our home farm in Foresters Falls. The bulls are fed free choice hay and limit fed a pelletted bull ration. The bulls were pictured in mid January, so please feel free to stop by to view the bulls at any time as they will change appearance almost weekly at this stage of their development. The demand for Charolais and Char-cross calves continues to be high. Add in our philosophy of easy calving and high weaning weight and you to will reap the benefits in the fall. Look through the catalogue and give us a call if you have any questions. Also this year the bulls can be seen in video at www.CattleInMotion.com. Please feel free to contact Keith or Kurtis for more information or if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you on sale day. Come early for lunch! – The Blacks On behalf of our family, I would like to welcome you to the Benchmark annual bull sale. We have a great group, offering bulls with performance as well as some low birth weight bulls. It goes without saying that all the bulls carry on the stamp of the Cornerview program—having some ruggedness, hair and conformation. Our cow herd, which has produced all these guys, will pass along traits such as temperament, udder quality and fertility. Come and have a look at the bulls prior to sale day at the farm and have a coffee. We know our bulls better than anyone. If you are unable to attend our sale, we will work with you to find the right bull and represent you in a professional manner on sale day. – The Cornerview Crew Blackbern Charolais Cornerview Charolais Keith & Karen Black Brian & Heather Coughlin 613-646-9741 613-646-2673 Brett & Stefanie 613-312-1378 Benchmark Charolais bull sale • March 22, 2014
