Pacific Showcase - December 2010 / January 2011 by EDJE

Owned by Show Cattle People,

FOR SHOW CATTLE PEOPLE!

We have a driving passion for the show industry. Striving to formulate NEW, modern show products for you! The Hottest NEW hair growth product!

Hide and Hair NEW!

NEW!

Not only has Hide and Hair been shown to grow hair, but it also encourages skin health which is essential for optimum hair growth. It contains kelp and seaweed, which has been shown to lower body temperature. Hide and Hair contains no melatonin. With melatonin, there is a point where hair growth comes to a peak and then it sheds, but with Hide and Hair you are able to achieve consistent hair growth. Initial reorders have been very strong!

FLAIR

Flair is a tremendous feed supplement that contains the perfect combination of proprietary nutrients to promote the growth of luxurious, full, fresh hair coats. Originally created by the Wilcox family of Indiana, they consider Flair the "secret ingredient" to their family's tremendous show ring success.

NEW!

Instructional DVD's by Dave Guyer

These superior quality DVD's are stuffed full of great information to help you succeed in the show ring. Dave is a tremendous fitter, educator and cattleman. He reveals significant information that gives you a competitive advantage. Five different DVD's: Selection and Feeding, Daily Care, Clipping, Fitting, and Showmanship.

Sullivan's PEACE Pellets

NEW!

This pelleted feed supplement is fed daily to calm and take the edge off show cattle. Mixes easily with your daily feed ration. Provides a calming effect during daily stressful times and allows the exhibitor to handle show animals more professionally. It also helps to break animals and take stress off. A Great New Product!

Fitting Tip From the Pros:

Find us on Facebook!

With the arrival of your calves this fall, here are a few things to get you off to a good start. Check with the breeder to assure the calf has been properly vaccinated. Take your time when breaking your calf to minimize stress. After washing your calf the first time, use a heavy coat of Kleen Sheen. Comb and blow the sheen into the hair, then apply a heavy coat of Final Bloom to the entire body, including the legs. Continue to blow while applying more Final Bloom to any dry skin or dandruff areas. This will help to get the hide in better condition, promote hair growth, and train the hair.. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Barry Nowitzke

W-D Swine Farm would like to invite you all to our 14th Annual Kick-Off Sale. The sale is always held the third Saturday in January at the Stanislaus County Fairgrounds. This year the sale date is January 15, 2011. The preview will begin at 9 a.m., Lambs sell at 11 a.m. and the hogs sell at 1 p.m. In addition to our sale, Honor Show Chow Feed is hosting a Lamb and Pig Clinic. The lamb clinic will start at 9 a.m. with Clay Weber and the hogs will start at 10 a.m. with Bryan Vaughn. This is a great opportunity for 4-H and FFA members to learn more about the selection, care of, feeding and grooming of their projects. Clay and Bryan will both be happy to answer any specific questions you may have. We are really excited about our hogs for the sale this year. Our Drop Shot boar has made quite an impression nationwide. The latest being Drop Shot's son: the $37,000 Crossbred Boar we sold at Fall Classic in Duncan, OK. All of the hogs in the Kick-Off Sale will be sired by Drop Shot or one of our other service sires. Each hog sold in the sale, and the top 40 lambs, will go home with a bag of Honor Show Chow Feed. Thank you to Honor for that donation. For more information about our program, please visit our website at www.wdswinefarm.com or give us a call. Ryan is happy to go over the hogs with anyone on the phone or the day of the sale. If you are unable to make the sale, we are also taking bids in advance. We hope to see you all there!!

tional foodies and the like, then you probably will want to go with a natural cure. This means that your hams and bacons will be cured without any artificial nitrates. Processors who do a natural cure use the juice of celery or prunes or other plants that contain natural curing agents. Consumers who are seeking out a cleaner product usually go for this.

super hard to find. What do I mean by “quality lard”? Well, usually that means not hydrogenated which turns it into a trans fat. So consumers are looking for naturally rendered lard that they can use in cooking and baking the way their great grandmother did. To produce lard you need to have fat on your pigs so the amount of finish will be different than if you are going for lean meat. Pork direct marketers will need to choose between selling a “lean white meat” product or selling a “healthy fat” product. There are customers for both products.

If your customers are more of the gourmet set than the health set, then find a processor who consistently wins awards for his hams, sausages, and other cured meats. Find out what your competitors are doing and out do it. Make different flavors and have taste tests at events to find out which products have the most appeal. These products are considered “value added” as something is done to them other than just to package them as meat. There is generally more profit in a value added product as it is interesting to the consumer and you can mark it up more. Pork chops are pork chops and the consumer has a hard time differentiating between yours and the other guy’s but smoked cinnamon apple sausage is a product that might be uniquely yours… Selling pork products directly to consumers can really be enjoyable because customers tend to get really excited about pork and the huge array of products you can sell them. You may find yourself raising more and more pigs just to keep up with the demand.

The other unique thing about swine is the fact that some of the animal can be sold as cured meat. Hams, sausages, bacon, linguica, bratwurst, and the like are all examples of cured meats. This means that you will need to locate a processor to do your curing for you. Here is a great chance to outshine your competitors. If you are selling to the tradidecember 2010/January 2011

the towns downstream, including Cody, have ample water for their crops—beans, sugar beats, potatoes, and plenty of high meadow hay.

Every visit in each season brings a new experience. Therefore, I am expanding my weather horizons. For the most part, the two day trip from Paso Robles, California to Cody is a pleasant drive. Spring and summer pose few problems, a cloud burst through Utah’s high country, a rare rogue snow squall along portions of the highway where the Mormon and Oregon Trails split, a head wind just over the Wyoming line. But a visit that coincides with the winter holidays of Thanksgiving or Christmas can be more challenging. Over the years, thanks to the Weather Channel and pure luck, we have avoided the worst weather. We stay just ahead of the snow storms and arrive in Cody with our truck and sanity intact.

Chore Time in Wyoming By Kathleen Wood-Vieira

Ok, so I admit it. I am a “weather wimp!” For well over a hundred years, five generations of my family have basked in the mild climate of the Golden State. Summer fairs and picnics are never rained out and my idea of winter weather is tarping the hay in the fall and shaking the black widows out of my rubber boots before chore time.

Thanksgiving 2010 was no exception. The trip through Salt Lake was summer-like, the high reaches of South Pass snow-free and, as if right on cue, the snow began to blow in over Cody while we unloaded our suitcases and gifts of California strawberries, homegrown tomatoes and avocados. With Jack Frost nipping at my nose, this must be the way most of the country celebrates Thanksgiving! The house was warm; we were together with family and while we watched through the newly insulated windows, the flakes and the thermometer continued to fall.

Over ten years back, our son, Trajan, left California, first living in Elko, Nevada and finally settling in northwestern Wyoming. He married a wonderful Cody native and they bought a six-bedroom house, so it looks like there will be no moving back.

The day before Thanksgiving, hot cup of coffee in my hand, I turned on the local news. “Park County Schools are closed today, due to adverse weather. Because of the below zero temperatures and the wind chill, we made the decision to call off school for the day.” Bryan Monteith, school superintendant gave the good news.

Cody, Wyoming sits in a high desert valley, an hour from the east gate to Yellowstone National Park. Its climate boasts 300 days of sunshine, a dry climate, and winds that can blow a gale any time of the year. My daughter-in-law tells me that they really get very little snow and barely a sprinkling of rain.

Hot dog, this is what I came for! “Hailey, I’ll help with chores,” I offered.

The Beartooth and Absoroka ranges of mountains take the brunt of the storms, packing in the winter snow. Come the spring melt, the rivers fill a huge lake behind the Bill Cody Dam. During the summer,

“Be sure to dress warm,” she said, as she zipped her “covies”, a pair of insulated Carhartt overalls. I layered. First silk long johns, then, since no one would know, my fleece pajama bottoms under my Carhartt flannel lined jeans. I put a turtle neck under my wool fisherman’s sweater, covered by a sweatshirt, vest and full length quilted coat. I topped my head with fuzzy cap, ear muffs and silk wild rag. I had a little trouble bending down to shove my wool sock clad feet into a pair of sheepskin lined leather boots. My hand coverings were only cheap Walmart gloves, but I figured I could keep them in my pockets for the most part.

We stepped outside into an arctic freeze. No wind, but at eight o’clock in the morning the thermometer hovered at minus eighteen degrees.

“Hmmm, good thing we have an overcast,” Hailey said looking at the gray morning, “or else it would be really cold.” Say what, I thought and pulled my coat tighter. We drove a mile to the horse corrals and left the car idling, the heater running at full blast, beside the hay stack. Of the five horses that greeted us, only one wore a blanket, Prime Oak, the fancy California bred horse. The others had those good northwestern genes that allowed them to thrive in this kind of weather. Something I had noticed all over Wyoming was the use of more windbreaks than barns for shelter. My son tells me the most dangerous thing is cold with wind and since winter is so dry, a piece of plywood to block the wind is all they need. Must be working, the ponies were haired-up, looking fat and sassy, with frost decorating their whiskers.

I tossed the hay while Hailey chopped ice. She used the back of a hatchet and scooped the chunks out with an apple picker, but no amount of chopping worked on the sorrel mare’s trough. Hers had frozen into a single cube. Hailey found a spare insulted barrel and we rolled it over. My hands were starting to feel the cold and it felt like Jack Frost was chewing off my nose. While Hailey filled the trough, I stuck my hands deep in my pockets, trying to thaw them out and tied my wild rag, Bandito-style across my nose.

NEW

MoorManâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sÂŽ ShowTecÂŽ FINISHER

MoorManâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ShowTec 14.5/6 LN (No. 14560BPF44) is the newest finisher in the ShowTec line-up of

winning performance-proven show feeds. This 14.5% protein/6% fat product in crumble form gives a smooth finish to show pigs. It is ideal for show pigs weighing over 150 lb needing a lower protein, higher fat diet. Just like MoorManâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ShowTec Developer BB 18 LN No. 18241BPP, this new ShowTec product provides the same nutritional components, like ADM innovative, patent-pending and proprietary feed ingredients. Ingredients like Energy Burst, PremiDex, and CitriStim to enhance the productâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effectiveness and performance potential. The addition of Lincomix provides protection from swine dysentery and porcine ileitis.

When winning performance is your goal, add MoorManâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ShowTec 14.5/6 LN (14560BPF44) to your feeding program! Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so special about these research-proven ingredients? CitriStimÂŽ has a beneficial impact on animal growth and health via its deleterious impact on pathogenic gut bacteria.

JYPP GSPSV JMPI

PremiDexâ&#x201E;˘ has a positive effect on performance, resulting from beneficial changes of gut microflora.
