ESSAGE
“The jaws of power are always open to devour, and her arm is always stretched out, if possible, to destroy the freedom of thinking, speaking, and writing.” — John Adams Trust in the Lord and do good. Then you live safely in the land and prosper. — Psalms 37:3
Howdy Folks,
I
hope everyone survived the summer meeting and pray that the monsoon rains are sending the much needed moisture over this parched and burnt land. I was looking at some of my letters I’ve written but never sent in when I found the one below. I wrote it a couple of years ago and I think it is still appropriate today.
July 8, 2009 — Ramblings of an Ole Cowboy Dear America, It has just been a few days from your birthday, and I pray that is was a happy one. Don’t take this letter wrong, but cowboys spend many hours alone with nature and God and use much of that time contemplating on various subjects, some good and some not so good for animal or man. I have spent many of these days since last fall thinking of our national economic woes. We have created a debt that we may not be able to ever pay back. Who have we borrowed from and what have we used for collateral? I would like our president or one of his top czars to explain this. I know that if I borrow money I have to put something up for collateral. Have we Americans been duped by our governmental leaders for years? I am not pointing fingers at any one party or political persuasion — just big government — period. The only real assets America has is land and natural resources. I also know that much of our nation’s natural wealth is held (supposedly in trust for our country’s future) in the many national parks, monuments, forests, wilderness areas, military reserves, etc. One has only to look at ANWR, the Escalante Staircase, Devil’s Tower, and many of the other areas. Have we put up these lands for collateral for loans from China, Japan, Saudi Arabia, and other countries? Might make you scratch your head. Our border with Mexico has been put in jeopardy with many of these same areas being off-limits to different types of transportation for U.S. citizens, but have left a gate wide open for illegal aliens and the smuggling of drugs or possibly dirty weapons by OTMs. The nation has lost a river to the border fence. Just ask Texans which side of the river is the fence built. When federal, state, county, or local authorities cannot patrol these areas because of our own laws prohibiting them from vehicle use in wilderness areas and such that are close to the border, we might need to look at the law. We have created a monster with the Endangered Species Act. Way back when this act was passed, we all had a fuzzy feeling that we were helping the Bald Eagle. Today, when a microscopic bug can halt any kind of economical development, something is wrong. Many animals, plants, birds, bugs, and such became extinct long before man came along and supposedly ruined the world. We (the government) have closed down or hindered the businesses and vocations in the West with these laws. Look at the logging, mining, farming, ranching, and oil and gas businesses — all that use natural resources —to help the economical stability of the United States and to keep our country fed, clothed, and sheltered. IS THIS BECAUSE THE ONES THAT HOLD THE NOTES ON OUR DEBT DO NOT WANT THEIR COLLATERAL DIMINISHED? Like I said — Cowboys have a lot of time to contemplate on the problems that we are faced with. These things are a little heavy for this cowboy — Maybe I’d better ponder on something I have no control of whatsoever — like the weather. Things are sure moving slow. It seems we still have the same problems today that I was contemplating on a few years ago. Members of the Association have lost loved ones this past month. These folks will be missed by everyone that was lucky enough to have had them in their lives. The history that they helped forge should not be forgotten. It is the fabric that the West and our nation was built upon. Again, Happy Birthday America!

Happy July, CowBelles ~
I
hope this letter finds all of you having a good summer and maybe you had the chance to come to the New Mexico CowBelle meeting. Buffalo Thunder Resort was the place that the NMCB joined together with the New Mexico Cattle Growers and the New Mexico Wool Growers to meet, share and discuss the current issues facing our agriculture livelihood.
The NMCB Beef Ambassador contest included both senior and junior contests this year and we now have 2011-2012 Beef Ambassadors for New Mexico. Our past Beef Ambassoador, Kyra Grant, did a great job at promoting the beef industry and the contest. Thank You, Kyra ! Evelyn Yates is a New Mexico CowBelle whom I would like to mention and say how proud and happy that she was chosen as the 2011 Diamond in the Rough winner during the American National CattleWomen & Women in Ag Leadership Conference in Albuquerque. Evelyn is a shining example of what agriculture women are made of . . . Koodos to Evelyn! Did you see the June Stockman where another New Mexico CowBelle woman was honored along with her husband as the

zation and who have been the recipients of the “New Mexico CowBelle of the Year”. This award began in 1966 and continues today. I would like to list these special ladies so all can be reminded of those who have been honored: Tommy Harrington, Peggy Monzingo, Lily Major, Peggy Sultemeier, Mary Alice Copeland, Alvera Benton, Eula Grady, Netti Harrelson, Faye Plank, Ida King, Wilma Fulgham, Lava Butt, Edith Pankey, Pat Nowlin, Sharon King, Dorothy Vaughan, Berry Ann Bell, Sherri Raska, Jean Brown, Linda Ponder, Barbara Martin, Debbie Sauble, Fita Witte, Barbara Wagner, Betty Pepper, Genora Moore-Canon, Viola Jeffers, Jean Lee, Ella Roberson, Owaissa Heimann, Anne Ferguson, Pearl Sowers, Inez Marrs, Patty Townsend, Kay Lindsey, Evelyn Yates, Janet Witte, Lyn Greene, Kathryn Malcolm-Callis, Joan Kincaid, Toni Barrow, Estelle Bond, Rachel Ricklefs, Freda Havens, and Yetta Bidegain. Some of these women are no longer with us, but all these ladies are assets to NMCB and agriculture. As you read these names, I am sure many memories come to mind. You probably know someone who would be a great nominee for this honor.
18
JULY 2011
Look around your local, or within the state and submit her name. Honor someone and tell her you are proud of her and what she has done for us. Nominations are due to the NMCB President by October 15, 2011. The form is in Section 4 of the Red Book and on line at our NMCB Web-Site under members only, or contact your local president. As the saying goes . . . “the more things change, the more things stay the same,” and NMCB are always looking for ways to promote beef while working to raise funds. We had a slogan contest for a bumper sticker and new T-shirt idea to support agriculture. Several ideas were sent in and new ideas were discussed. It is our hope to have a couple of new items to sell at the New Mexico State Fair this September. Thanks to those that submitted ideas and congratulations to our winners. I would like to mention something concerning our state organization. There have been many different times which I have overheard members expressing feelings about joining, or not joining the American National CattleWomen. We are all Supporters of Beef and the head of our organization is the American National CattleWomen. ANCW membership dues are $50, which is added on to our state/local dues.
NMCB is an affiliate of ANCW but your individual membership helps to keep you informed on current issues facing our industry. Please take time to consider all of the things that National does to speak, inform, and educate us at the state level. They also represent us at the National Cattleman’s Beef Association and Cattle’s Beef Board as our representative for the checkoff dollars. Without our ANCW officers, we would not be able to participate at the National level and would not be represented. We have enjoyed having the ANCW 2010 President Lana Slaton and PresidentElect for 2011 Tami Didlot in the past few years come to our meetings, so would it not behoove us to support the ANCW organization as a whole. Remember when Fita Witte was the ANCW 2007 President and how proud we were to have her represent us at national? ~ We could have another. ~ We have many women in our state who are strong and intelligent and have big hearts. It is through them and you that we are a New Mexico CowBelles. Thank You ~ – Linda Lee New Mexico CowBelle President P.S. I know that I have teased you about our new Beef Ambassador and our Contest continued on page 20

Winner, this letter has to be sumtted for publication before I get the final results. These winners will be front and center in my next letter. Sacaton CowBelles would like to express their congratulations to Evelyn Carlisle Yates, 2011 Diamond in the Rough winner. The group is so proud of her and all she has done for Agriculture. She is a driving force for the Agriculture Industry! Susann Mikkelson, Director of The Southwest Cooperative Development Center was the guest speaker for the May meeting. Her organization works to improve economic conditions for New Mexico’s rural areas by helping to create retention and expansion of sustainable cooperative and mutually owned businesses, particularly related to healthy food access, and local and regional systems. Susann outlined how the organization can help in areas ranging from cooperative or community-owned food retail stores to marketing cooperatives for producers. Her presentation was informative and well received. Anything to market local beef is always a plus. If you would like to have a
presentation or want further any information please email sacatoncowbells@ hotmail.com June is Beef Month. Thank you to all ranchers for your hard work providing food for many tables across America. Submitted by Anita Hand On June 6, fifteen Powderhorn CowBelles met to prepare for the Barbeque at Old Fort Days. Karen Cortese, Beverly Ann Overton, and Dorie Tucker, chairpersons organized the event. On June 11 the CowBelles served over 420 people barbeque beef brisket, cole slaw, beans, rolls, condiments and a dessert of their choice. Charlie Overton helped by taking tickets. President Sandra McKenna’s grandson stuck stickers saying “I heart Beef” on all ticket holders. Dorothy Vaughan, her granddaughter Amy, Frances Fikany, Frances Speight and Nikki Lou Gregory sold tickets and were in charge of the monies. Working in the kitchen were Carolyn Bedford, Dorothy Bilberry, Beverly Carter, Carolyn Geiler, Kyra Grant, Renee Grant, Kathy Hall, Becky Harris, Sondra Jack, Karen Kelling, Sarabel Key, Sandy McKenna, Charlotte Orton, Nancy Schade, Dorie Tucker, Elayne Horney, and Ellen Vaughan in addition to the two chairpersons. This is the main fund raising event
for the Powderhorn CowBelles to fund scholarships. Kyra Grant, the New Mexico Beef Ambassador, had a table set up to give people information on beef cuts, beef recipes and other information. The group wants to thank all the people who supported this successful fund raiser. On May 16 the Powderhorn CowBelles furnished hamburgers and buns to feed 60 people at the annual hamburger fry for the Ft. Sumner grade school students. This was done in conjunction with the Woman’s Club and Rotary Club of Ft. Sumner. The Powderhorn CowBelles also furnished the beef and buns for a cookout enjoyed by the students of Ft. Sumner Grade School for accelerated reading. In addition to the above, Powderhorn CowBelles also donated money to the Ft. Sumner High School’s After Prom Party. Carolyn Bedford, Secretary The May 10 meeting of the Grant County Copper CowBelles was opened by president, Pat Hunt at 12:00. Neline introduced her guest, Linita Lambeth.

NEW MEXICO
BY FRANK DUBOIS
Federal
Lands News Bingaman Is After Us Again he Bingaman wilderness mess is back. Mike has already written about his bill for northern New Mexico, so let’s look at what he has planned for the southern part of the state. On May 19 Senators Bingaman and Udall introduced S. 1024, the Organ Mountains – Doña Ana County Conserva-
T
tion and Protection Act. This is basically the same bill from the last session of Congress. According to a Bingaman press release it would designate 241,000 acres as wilderness and place 100,000 acres in a National Conservation Area. There is one very noticeable change from last year’s bill. Notice the title. The word Wilderness is nowhere to be found. If Wilderness is so wildly popular with the
public, why did the Senators remove the word from the title? Since it is the same bill, it has the same old problem areas, which for some reason Bingaman refuses to fix. The four areas of primary concern are 1) Grazing 2) Flood Control 3) Public Access and 4) Border Security. continued on page 25

I’ll address the grazing issues in my next column. For now the hot-button issue is Border Security and law enforcement. It’s very apparent that Senator Bingaman realizes the Border Security issue is an impediment to his passing the bill. For instance, take a look at the joint press release issued by the Senators. Border Security is in the title, the release contains 662 words, and 371 of those words are about Border Security. Bingaman has a reason to be worried about opposition to his legislation. Recall that Wilderness prohibits the use of motorized vehicles or mechanical equipment, thus prohibiting mobile and fixed
surveillance systems and communication centers. In addition, this means the Border Patrol is relegated to patrolling these areas on foot or horseback. That puts these officers at a distinct disadvantage against the drug cartels, who don’t feel compelled to follow Wilderness rules. In response to criticism from law enforcement and civic groups such as the Greater Las Cruces Chamber of Commerce, Bingaman carved out a five-mile area from the border where the Border Patrol has unencumbered access. Five miles? A New Mexico citizen was recently murdered 10 miles from the border. Rancher Rob Krentz was murdered 20 miles from the border and a deputy sheriff in Arizona was wounded after encountering illegals 70 miles from the border. And Bingaman thinks five miles fixes every-
thing! Let’s take a look at what Bingaman’s counterparts in Arizona are doing. Senators McCain and Kyle have introduced S. 803, the Border Security Enforcement Act of 2011. A provision of that bill allows the Border Patrol to have unencumbered access to all federal lands, including components of the National Wilderness Preservation System, within 150 miles of the border with Mexico. Arizona Congressman Ben Quayle has introduced H.R. 1922 which also grants the Border Patrol unencumbered access to all federal land for 150 miles. Representative Peter King, chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, has cosponsored the Quayle bill stating, “How can anyone take seriously the continued on page 26

Obama Administration’s claim that it is intent on securing our borders when the Department of the Interior and the Forest Service hinder the Border Patrol’s access to some 40 percent of the Southwest Border? We cannot possibly succeed in securing our borders against illegal immigrants, including potential terrorists, unless our front-line Border Patrol agents can do their jobs anywhere along the border.”
Arizona says 150 miles, Bingaman says five miles. Why such a difference? Because Arizona has been living with the consequences of having Wilderness on the border, the exact same situation which Bingaman is trying to create for New Mexico! Whether you call it Bingaman’s Bandito Boulevard or Bingaman’s Aboveground Railroad, it is bad legislation for New Mexico and for our nation. Wild Lands, Wilderness and the Bingaman Bill

Salazar issued Secretarial Order 3310 which directed BLM to inventory lands with wilderness characteristics and designate them as “Wild Lands”. On June 1, 2011 Secretary Salazar issued a Memorandum to BLM stating “the BLM will not designate any lands as ‘Wild Lands’.” This was after Congress had defunded the program for this fiscal year and the states of Utah, Wyoming and Alaska had filed suit against the order. In the Memorandum Salazar also stated: Based on my conversations with members of Congress, there is broad interest in managing our public lands in a sensible manner that takes into account such lands’ wilderness qualities. There continues to be broad support for providing permanent protection for some of those lands under the Wilderness Act. Given our shared interests in managing the public lands for the benefit of our communities and for future generations, the Department of the Interior will be soliciting input from members of Congress, state and local officials, tribes, and Federal land managers to identify BLM lands that may be appropriate candidates for Congressional protection under the Wilderness Act. I am directing the Deputy Secretary to work with the BLM to deliver a report to me and to the Congress regarding those areas. Read broadly this means all BLM lands in New Mexico with “wilderness qualities” will be considered in compiling the report. On June 10 Salazar sent a letter to Congress stating, “the Department of the Interior will, by October 15, 2011, submit to Congress a list of “crown jewel” areas that we believe are ready for immediate Wilderness designation by Congress.” It should be noted that Salazar sent the letter after being criticized by former Secretary Babbitt and that he announced this policy at a Wilderness Society meeting where Babbitt was receiving an award. At any rate, all users of federal lands should stay alert as we find out exactly how this report will be put together. It remains to be seen how this process may or may not affect S. 1024. Bingaman’s Wilderness bill last year was made part of an Omnibus Public Lands Bill which died as Congress adjourned. I believe that approach will be taken again. Bingaman’s bill is controversial enough that it would not pass as a stand-alone bill. Furthermore, Binga-

man’s committee has been holding perfunctory hearings, with only Obama administration officials allowed to testify, on bills that could be combined into a new Omnibus package. As of this writing, no hearing has been held on S. 1024. This may all boil down to whether the Republicans in the House will agree to an Omnibus bill, and if so would they agree to include a provision which creates more Wilderness on the border. My sources tell me no, they would never agree to such a provision. Others point out, however, that Bingaman is retiring, and funny things happen when a Senator wants something for his “legacy”. Time will tell. Speaking of time, let’s gaze into the future. It’s 2012 and a Presidential election year. President Obama and Bingaman have been unsuccessful in getting an Omnibus bill through the Congress. The enviros are howling that Obama has been woefully inadequate in fulfilling their federal lands agenda. What to do? Now flashback to September of 1996 and another Presidential election. Bill Clinton held a press conference and designated 1.9 million acres of Utah as a National Monument. Focus again on 2012. Can you visualize an Obama press conference with Bingaman by his side, and the designation of Otero Mesa or the Organ Mountains as a National Monument? Come to think of it, Bruce Babbitt was Clinton’s Secretary of Interior and didn’t he just receive an award from the Wilderness Society? Sometimes all this gazing isn’t good for the soul. Until next time, be a nuisance to the devil and don’t forget to check that cinch.

by KAREN BUDD-FALEN he American public has been asking for legislative reform of a system that pays taxpayer dollars to environmental “nonprofit” attorneys who charge $650 per hour to bring cases for statutory procedural violations, and we finally have it. On May 25, 2011, H.R. 1996, the Governmental Litigation Savings Act of 2011, was introduced to stop the deficit bleeding and level the playing field for all who seek to sue or need a permit from the federal government. But the simple introduction of this bill in the U.S. House of Representatives is not enough and we need your help. This bill has 18 sponsors, but needs many more and we need to get Congress to hold hearings to learn the true extent of the abuse. This is a call to action and a request for your help. The Governmental Litigation Savings Act of 2011 (“GLSA”) has five major sections.
T
Tax documents show a great many environmental and animal rights groups are worth far in excess of $7,000,000. First, this Act eliminates the false distinction in net worth between a “for profit” organization and a “nonprofit public interest” organization. Currently, under the Equal Access to Justice Act (“EAJA”), a for profit entity or person with a net worth over $7,000,000 is ineligible to recover attorney fees for litigation against the federal government. However, an entity that has been determined to be “nonprofit” is not bound by this restriction. Thus, even though tax documents show a great many environmental and animal rights groups are worth far in excess of $7,000,000, these groups can “recover” attorney fees for suing the federal government. In other words, these “non-profit” groups get paid by the American taxpayers to sue the federal government which

results in families losing their homes and businesses. Under the existing EAJA, groups like the Sierra Club, who reported its worth as $56,527,055 in 2007 can receive tax payer money to sue the federal government, but a company with the same net worth cannot. Similarly, if the compensation package for the President of the Natural Resources Defense Council is $432,959.00, do they really need the American citizens funding their litigation agains against the American government? Second, the GLSA places a cap on both the hourly fees that attorneys can charge and on the amount of money that can be awarded to an individual group in a year. Under the GLSA, the hourly fees charged by attorneys is capped at $175 per hour and that cap can only be adjusted for inflation. Under the current Act, attorney fees are capped at $125 per hour, but that hourly fee can be “adjusted” to a significantly higher amount. For example, in cases involving radical environmental “non-profit” attorneys in California, attorney fees as high as $650 per hour have been paid although the statute caps the fee at $125 per hour. Originally Congress passed EAJA to put litigants back in the same place as they were prior to the litigation against the federal government. However, radical environmental groups can legitimately argue that prior to the ligation, they were paying their nonprofit attorneys $650 per hour. Additionally, the GLSA caps the total attorneys fees reimbursement to $200,000 for a single action and allows no more than three awards in a calendar year. That should stop the litigation gravy train for groups like the Center for Biological Diversity who was involved in 770 federal court cases between 1999 and the May, 2011 according to research using the PACER data base. Importantly this reimbursement cap does not apply to individuals who have suffered a direct and personal monetary interest at the hands of an overreaching bureaucracy. Third, the GLSA requires reporting of all taxpayer moneys paid out in attorneys fees, including those money paid in confidential settlement agreements or consent decrees. In approximately 10.5 percent of the cases polled, the amount of money paid to environmental groups for attor-

neys fees is not disclosed to the public. Shouldn’t the public know how much of its money is being funneled to radical groups through attorneys fees payments? Fourth, the GLSA requires federal agencies to reduce the awards made for “pro bono” work and does not allow attorneys fees to be paid in cases where the litigator either acts in bad faith or tries to delay the litigation just to rack up attorneys fees. Finally, this Act requires that the federal government account for the taxpayer money it spends on attorneys fees and that continued on page 33

a searchable data base be created to allow the American citizens to have the ability to search how much money is being paid and to whom. The American taxpayer has a right to know how and to which groups and individuals their money is being spent. However, accounting of the money spent on attorney fees has not occurred since 1995. Is it any wonder that this country is broke? With the introduction of this bill, our work is just beginning. Out of 435 members of the United States House of Representatives, only 18 have cosponsored this bill with Wyoming’s representative Cynthia Lummis. The cosponsors are Rep. Rob Bishop (UT-1); Rep. Glenn Thompson (PA5); Rep. Mike Simpson (ID-2); Rep. Jason Chaffetz (UT-3); Rep. Don Young (AK); Rep. Scott Tipton (CO-3); Rep. Jeff Denham (CA-19); Rep. Michael Conaway (TX11); Rep.

Steve Pearce(NM-2); Rep. Wally Herger (CA-2); Rep. Jeff Flake (AZ-6); and Rep. Greg Walden (OR-2). Please contact your Congressman and request that they cosponsor H.R. 1996. This bill has been assigned to the House Judiciary Committee, Lamar Smith Texas Chairman. It is important that this bill be aired in open public hearings so that America can voice its opinion on the spending of American tax dollars on litigation. Please urge Mr. Smith and your Congressional members to hold hearings on this bill. Like so many other laws in this country, the original idea of the federal government reimbursing individuals and small businesses who have to fight against overreaching bureaucracy is noble. But like many original ideas, over the years EAJA and the payment of attorney fees out of the Judgment Fund on Endangered Species Act and other litigation has been distorted beyond recognition. It is time to bring this Country back to its roots, cut the deficit spending and put American citizens back to work. I hope you will work to support the Governmental Litigation Savings Act. n

Congress Should Free Public Land for Locals by SENATOR JOHN BARRASSO & CONNGRESSMAN KEVIN MCCARTHY / ROLL CALL “Our ability to enjoy our national resources has been constrained by Congress’ failure to take action on recommendations to open up millions of acres of
public land for increased use and recreation.” ver the past three decades, our ability to enjoy our national resources has been constrained by Congress’ failure to take action on recommendations to open up millions of acres of public land for increased use and recreation. Most public lands across the country are managed for “multiple use,” which
O
means that ranching, grazing, recreation, tourism and energy exploration can occur there. These decisions are almost always made at the local level because those who live, work and recreate in and around public lands know best how to manage them. There are some areas across the United States that have characteristics deserving of special preservation. In order to protect these specific areas, Congress has designated them “wilderness areas,” and most activities are restricted or eliminated. However, there are tens of millions of acres across the United States that do not have these special characteristics but are essentially being treated as if they did. Let us explain. In 1976, Congress promised to make a choice about which public lands should have special preservation, directing the Bureau of Land Management to conduct a study to determine which lands were suitable for wilderness designations and which were not. The BLM recommended 6.7 million acres as not suitable. However, because Congress has not acted on these recommendations, they continue to be treated essentially as if they were wildercontinued on page 47

Judge Rules in Favor of Livestock Grazing he Colorado Cattlemen’s Association (CCA) announced June 17 that the U.S. Forest Service, the Chaffee County Board of Commissioners, CCA, and most importantly – 13 livestock producing families – prevailed against a lawsuit filed by Western Watershed’s Project (WWP). In 2009, CCA and Chaffee County joined ranchers in protecting their right to multiple-use grazing of public lands by intervening in a lawsuit filed by the anti-livestock grazing WWP, which sought to deny renewal of grazing in the Pike and SanIsabelNational Forests. “This is a huge win for our family and cattlemen in this part of the state,” stated Ken McMurry, grazing permittee. “Through the support of Chaffee County, other local cattlemen’s associations and the Colorado Cattlemen’s Association, we’ve come to realize how significant this ruling is statewide to all cattlemen, whether grazing on private or public lands.” The appeal by WWP objected to the renewal of the grazing permits, which had been approved after a thorough environmental review. The Forest Service grazing decision also incorporated adaptive management principles to improve environmental conditions in the forests. The ranchers and the Forest Service worked together to develop management steps that would address resource issues and still be cost-effective. Upon reviewing the briefs and the administrative record, the court affirmed the decision of the Forest Service and allows continued livestock grazing under the adaptive management that everyone committed to do. As CCA counsel Connie Brooks explained, “This decision is especially significant because Western Watersheds had objected to the fact that the Forest Service had worked closely with the grazing permittees to develop management plans that made sense and would achieve the Forest Service’s objectives. While federal law calls for these grazing plans to be written in coordination with ranchers, this litigation would have undone the cooperation and consultation that has characterized the grazing program on the Salida Leadville Ranger District of the Pike San Isabel National Forest.” Tim Canterbury and his family are also thrilled with the courts decision. “We are happy to see that the court ruled this way. It shows that the courts recognize all of the hard work the permittees and agencies put into the Environmental Assessment.” The WWP argued that the decision made by the Forest Service was inconsistent with the Forest Plan; more specifically, it violated the Forest Plan in various ways including wildlife protection, protecting soil productivity, protecting water quality, and protecting archaeological resources. The court found that the Forest Service properly addressed each of these issues. Some of the measures included in the Proposed Plan were changing the stocking rate, limiting grazing to certain seasons, rest rotation,

We plan to use Beverly Butler’s “Embrace the Plate” demonstration to bring attention to a healthy diet for children and adults. The annual 4th of July picnic will be held at Comudas Mountain hosted by the Jones Ranches. Just maybe — it will rain that day! And none of us would put up a fuss about it as we have had no moisture in this neck of the woods. Submitted by: Barbara Wagner, OCB sec. The Chuckwagon CowBelles met on June 14 with 17 members, three junior members and four guests present. Toni Barrow called the meeting to order and introduced Marc Lefrancois, Chief of Resources at Salinas Monument, as guest speaker. He gave a program on the history of the peoples who occupied Abo from 6,000 BC through the present. As resources were depleted and droughts and famines hit, the various groups would be forced to move out of the area. Toni reconvened the meeting at 12:35 p.m. The group decided to give Bay Baker a $100 graduation scholarship. Toni read thank you notes for our support of the ANCW and WALC meeting. Toni also read an announcement about the Mid-year meeting June 26 and 27 at the Buffalo Thunder Resort. It was decided to buy $100 of chile flavored beef jerky for the troops who don’t normally receive packages from home. There was discussion about the booth at the All Indian Livestock Days. Toni thanked those who worked at the booth. Lyn Greene presented her sample of ditty bags emphasizing the new nutrition plate on the outside. It was decided that these will work very well for the Mid-year meeting. (Our very generous Chuckwagon CowBelles personally donated $85 in addition to the $100 mentioned above for beef jerky to the troops! Babbi Baker will purchase, package and ship it within the next week. Within the boxes will be a note thanking them for their service as well as a note mentioning that June is Beef Month. Babbi will give a complete accounting at the July meeting. Thank you for supporting our troops, ladies!)

inMemoriam Oleta Marie Stirling, 99, passed on May 12, 2011 in League City, Texas. She is survived by her sister, Madge Lundy, as well as many generations of nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband R.D. Stirling. They were married for 52 years, all of which were spent as cattle ranchers in Colorado and New Mexico. She was active in the Girl’s Ranch of New Mexico, the Methodist Church in Las Vegas, the Rebecca Lodge of Las Vegas, the New Mexico CowBelles, as well as countless other charitable organizations we will never know about. She always showed wonderful hospitality to all who came into her life, always with a cup of coffee and something good to eat. Joel Thomas Bennett, 33, Des Moines, passed away June 29, 2011, in Des Moines. He was born April 15, 1978, in Raton, the son of Vernon Ray and Linda Mae Kruse Bennett. Joel grew up on the Bennett Ranch along the Ojo del Pinaveta. He was a member of Grace United Methodist Church and the Raton Elks Lodge. He attended Des Moines Public Schools, graduating in 1996. Joel participated in many 4-H and school activities including FFA, student council, FHA, science fairs, basketball, track, and cross-country. He was valedictorian at Des Moines High School his senior year. Joel attended Clarendon College and then Oklahoma State where he received a bachelor of science in animal science in 2000. Joel is survived by his parents, Vernan and Linda Bennett, Raton; son James Ray Bennett, Raton; brother Justin Bennett, Des Moines; maternal great-grandmother Julia Ione Hawk Kruse, Fairview, Kansas, and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. John H. Mahoney, 63, Roy, was called home June 25, 2011, in an accident while working in his shop. He was born in Roy June 3, 1948, to John A. and Rena Mahoney and graduated from Roy High School in 1966 and from New Mexico State University in 1970. He is survived by his father John A. Mahoney; his wife June; his sons, Tappan (wife, Simone), Justin (wife, Shea), Joe (wife, Leslie) and Sean (wife, Tennessee); his two sisters: Janet Willis (husband, Jim), and Colleen Grogan; two grandchildren, numerous nieces, nephews, other family and friends.

and an active volunteer firefighter and EMT for several years. He was a master water well driller, serving northeastern New Mexico for more than 35 years. He was a member of both the New Mexico and National Groundwater Associations. John was NMGW president for numerous terms and served as a delegate for the NGWA making trips to Washington, D.C. He was a master of many trades, with a vast wealth of knowledge upon which many relied. He always had good advice for everyone, whether they wanted it or not. He could strike up a conversation or argument with anyone he met; he never met a stranger. Ryan Thomas Hyatt, 22, Deming, passed away on June 9, 2011 while working on the ranch he loved. Ryan was born on October 26, 1988 in Las Cruces to Leedrue and Sandy Hyatt and was raised on the family’s homestead at Cook’s Peak. He attended Deming Public Schools and graduated in 2007. He was one semester from completing his bachelor’s degree at New Mexico State University where he was on the Dean’s List. He also worked for Torch Energy and at the Jornada Ranch. Ryan will be remembered for his work ethic, quick wit, sense of humor and capacity to make everyone around him happy. He was an excellent student, guitar player, accomplished hunter, and football player. Ryan was a member of the FFA, 4-H, and was a true friend to many. Ryan will be truly missed by his mother and father; sister Brady, Deming; brother, Garrett (wife, Terra) Minneapolis, MN; his grandparents, Betty Hyatt, Deming and Siegfried and Phyllis Thunborg, Corrales; as well as three nieces, his fiance, Jessica MacDonald, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and all the people who were blessed to have known him. Michael Lee McWhorter, 52, Datil, passed away on April 12, 2011 in Albuquerque. Mike was born in Socorro to Frank and Lola McWhorter on August 5, 1958.

addy could fix almost anything with bailing wire and duct (I used to think it was “duck” . . . never did figure out what happened to the feathers) tape. It was perhaps fortunate that he was near the end of his ranching life when most hay started coming with bailing twine. He still found uses for the twine like tying up gates, but it just wasn’t ever as versatile as the old wire. In that vein, there was never a good enough excuse for not getting a job done. If you didn’t complete an assigned task, it was highly likely that you would be sent to do it again . . . and again until it was done and done right.

have to admit that approaching every issue with a lick and prayer is frustrating. It appears that there may really be a turn in the view of the American public as we look at a simple little lizard that has the potential to shut down industries, kill jobs and drive up the price of fuel that is already out of control. We are faced with a tremendous opportunity to join arms with the oil and gas industry, local governments, hunters, recreationists, local businesses and many others to create a campaign to educate our nation while driving Congress to finally take action on an Endangered Species Act (ESA) that is clearly not operating as it was intended nearly 40 years ago and should have never been extended continually in its current form. The kind of campaign I am talking about takes real dollars and professionals who are not only familiar with New Mexico and Texas, but who have a track record of
winning in this kind of forum. This is not a bailing wire and duct tape project. As I visited with a friend on the issue she made an analogy that is the best yet. We don’t go look for someone who might be able to figure out how to perform brain surgery; we don’t take the time to shop for the least cost-surgeon. We attack the problem with the best resources as quickly as we can. Are we going to seize this moment? Can’t back up

accept that Betsy or Daddy, Uncle Bill, Aunt Florence or the rest of their generation that we have lost in the past six years are not coming back. We won’t get the ranch back and now the concept of “home” has truly become New Mexico. But looking at what is going on in the state and federal regulatory arenas today, I would rather listen to country music than listen to the news. With that said, we cannot back up and we ARE making a difference. While the barrage of new regulations is coming about as fast as the fires are burning across Arizona and New Mexico at this writing, there was some good news. Clearly a more conservative U.S. House of Representatives is already helping us push back. The Christmas present from the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) was an executive order giving itself the power to create “wildlands” even though the surveys for Wilderness Areas under the Wilderness act were concluded about 30 years ago. The unified livestock industry opposition to this new policy coupled with the help of congressional representatives from across the West caused the Secretary
of the Interior to announce in early June that he would be withdrawing the executive order. Things may look grim, but we cannot back up or give up. Obscene & heard

taking the abuse and nonsense that comes with the job. In what has to be the umpteenth discussion on the Mexican wolf, comments would be laughable if there wasn’t so much at stake. The Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) noted with great pride that wolves had not been removed from the landscape for livestock depredation since 2008 yet depredation complaints had declined over that time, surely demonstrating that leaving depredating wolves in the “wild” was a positive action for livestock owners. The CBD spokesman is no dummy. He knows as well as anyone that for the past eight years, the deck has been stacked against ranchers and private property owners. He knows that depredation reports are down because no one does anything about them. He might also have some idea that times they are a changing.

that burned area will make great undulant grazing.” Surely he knows that fires of this magnitude and heat carbonize the soil, creating huge erosion and water quality issues for years to come. If not, he needs to rename his organization. Then there were those women who shook their fingers at and reprimanded the Commissioners for each not keeping constant eye contact with every one of the nearly 30 speakers for the entire duration of their three- to five-minute speeches. One went so far as to suggest that if the Commissioners didn’t have a 100 percent attention span to each and everything going on after an eight-hour meeting, they should resign. At the very least these females need a course in “how to win friends and influence people” not to mention a session in lady-like manners. At long last the outcome of this riveting afternoon was that the Commission voted UNAMIOUSLY to suspend the participation of the New Mexico Department of Game & Fish in the Mexican wolf recovery program. Another battle won for the good guys!
Then there are the traps . . . For as long as I have been involved in New Mexico range livestock, the trappers have been under siege . . . worse than the livestock industry itself. Some of the first meetings I attended when I moved to New Mexico were with trappers. Over the past two decades there have been some changes in public perception about wearing fur as well as changes made in the New Mexico Department of Game & Fish (NMDGF) regulations, but the trapping industry has survived. There is yet another run going to be made at them in July at the Game Commission meeting. While the NMDGF has proposed regulatory changes that are for the most part reasonable, they felt compelled to propose an alternative that would eliminate trapping on federal and state lands. That was a bow to the WildEarth (ScortchedEarth?) Guardians, Animal Protection of New Mexico and the Sierra Club, who not only want to call the shots in wildlife management without contributing one thin dime to aide in that management. AND they want to dictate where Commission meetings are held so that they will be convenient to all those people who want to tell other people how to man-

age wildlife and land without ever getting their hands dirty. I bet the Clayton Chamber of Commerce and Union County are pleased to know that they are deemed “inaccessible” by those who claim to have the greatest concern for the environment. Thankfully there is a good size contingent of true hunters and fishermen who clearly understand that this is just the first shot across the bow (in the nautical sense) in eliminating all hunting and fishing. Bow (as in arrows) hunters beware; it might not be long before some think nailing big eyed does with a lethally sharp pointy thing is cruel and inhuman. Another item on the agenda is the ban on trapping in the Gila due to potential harm to wolves. The Department has had seven (7) months to study the issue via a literature review. Apparently they cannot find anything that supports this mandate ordered as one of many fine parting gifts by Governor Bill Richardson. Let’s stop managing wildlife through politics and ideology. If you haven’t contacted the Game Commission on these issues already,
please visit www.nmagriculture.org to get their contact information and give them a call to support trapping and common sense wildlife management by the people who live and work with them every day. Empty Saddles

I was blessed that most of my family was well within driving distance much of the time. Most holidays were spent as an extended family.

that often I didn’t even realize what I was learning from her. There are the obvious things like making her tacos and enchiladas. I don’t remember when she taught me those things and maybe it was that she taught my mother and it was passed down that way. There are the funny things, like if you find wearing apparel that fits and you like it, you should buy it in every color because it might be a long time before you get to town again or find anything you like as well. I have learned that in the case of shoes, you must apply this principle with care — you might end up far away from home with two left shoes. If you were going to have a party or a fight, it is always best to surround yourself with family and friends. I was bitterly disappointed that my parents would never take me to the famous Cloverdale Picnics, the two- or three-day picnic and dances, that Uncle Bill and Aunt Cordy, held annually on a slab under some big old trees on the road into the Cloverdale headquarters. I was always told that when I got “old enough” I could go. When I was about 10 the tradition played out.
It seemed ironic that my first meal at the picnic site was in about the year 2000 when Aunt Cordy invited friends and family to take on the U.S. Forest Service about reducing grazing on the Cloverdale allotments as well as many of those across New Mexico and Arizona. During that same time frame Uncle Bill and Aunt Cordy spent two days in T or C and Hillsboro backing up Jimmy and Brent Bason on the
same issue. I could go on, but suffice it to say that Aunt Cordy loved life, loved to dance, loved to laugh and did it all in at least a high trot. I am blessed that I was able to spend time with her in recent months and I know that she was at peace and ready to go home. She loved and knew she was loved and we cannot ask for much more than that out of n life.

New Mexico’s Old Times and Old Timers
Seboyeta, a Frontier Town told by the Indian people that they “could not become Christians or stay in one place because they had been raised like deer.” Another Navajo said this: “I know all these people well, for they are my people and my relatives, and I say that neither now nor ever will they be Christians. They may say yes in order to get what is offered them, but afterwards they will say no.” The Spaniards, it seems, had made a tactical mistake. They used Laguna Indians as slave labor to build the mission, and the Navajos feared they would end up in the same kind of servitude. They withdrew their support by 1750 and the mission was soon abandoned. The area was ignored for about 50 years. In early 1800, The Spanish Governor, Don Fernando de Chacón gave possession of the area to thirty families which had previously resided near the Rio Grande at Albuquerque. The names of some of those settlers remain familiar
s the crow flies, it is only about 40 miles from Albuquerque west to Seboyeta.* The village is located in what is now the far northeast corner of Cibola County, close to the confluence of that county’s borders with those of Sandoval and McKinley counties. Seboyeta, at the base of Mt. Taylor, was an important community in the early development of western New Mexico. Sources disagree on exactly when the first effort to settle the area was made. Abe Peña, probably the most astute historian on the region, says that a Father Menchero attempted to establish a Franciscan Mission there in 1746. Other sources say the priests didn’t arrive until 1749. Whatever the year was, the purpose of the mission was to accommodate the Navajo Indians who had agreed to support it. There were many problems. The Navajos soon lost interest, for one thing. An interpreter at the time is said to have been

today: Aragon, Baca, Chavez, Gallegos, Garcia, de Herrera, Jaramillo, Marquez, Pera, Peralta, Romero and Santillanes. Abe Peña describes what the trip might have been like. “Imagine more than 30 carts, each pulled by a pair of oxen, lumbering and squeaking up Nine Mile Hill. Some of the men rode horses. Sheep, goats, and milk cows followed the train herded by boys and some of the older women.” The original plan called for the trip to take four days. It actually took five. The settlers officially took possession on March 16, 1800. Alcalde Don Jose Manuel Aragon, representing Governor Chacón wrote in his official report: “Today the colonists received the grant in community and the suertes (lots) as individuals and acknowledged same by throwing stones in the air, pulling weeds and shouting, ‘God save the King’ continued on page 45

three times, wherefore they hold and enjoy all the ownership over said tracts which I have districted for such is the will of his Majesty the King.” The settlers immediately set about two important tasks. The first was to establish a church, which they called Our Lady of Sorrows. The next was to build a fortified village. Ten-foot stone walls were constructed and houses were built up against them with no windows facing outward. Two entrances, one facing south and one east, were protected by hand-hewn ponderosa pine board gates which were each a foot thick. The Spanish settlers and the Indians of nearby Laguna got along well, but the Navajos in the area felt threatened, and were justified in feeling so. The settlers often engaged in raiding Navajo villages for the purpose of kidnapping children, primarily females, which would be sold into slavery in Albuquerque for about 500 pesos each. In 1804, the Navajos laid siege to Seboyeta. They attempted to burn the village and to breach the walls. Doña Antonia Romero was one of the heroines of this event. She climbed to the roof of a house
to take a look around and saw that a Navajo warrior had managed to climb over the wall and was in the act of removing the huge bar that held one of the gates closed. “Swarms” of Navajos waited outside. “Snatching a heavy stone metate, Doña Antonia lifted it above her head and brought it down with all her strength on the head of the savage, killing him instantly.” (No mention is made as to why a metate, a stone used for grinding corn
and nuts, was on the roof of the house and available to Doña Antonia. On the other hand, maybe she had climbed down from the rooftop before she slew the invader. The narrative of the event is not clear on the point.) By the following year, the settlers had suffered about all they intended to. They made a plea to the governor to be released continued on page 46

from their promise not to abandon the village. Their request seemed to have been ignored, and they pulled out for Albuquerque. Along the way, though, they encountered a detachment of about 30 soldiers, and the settlers returned to their homes. Trouble with the Navajo subsided after that and the village flourished. Seboyeta became the so-called Mother
Village from which settlers founded other villages in the region. Among them were San Mateo in 1862, San Rafael in 1865, and El Concho, Arizona, in 1869. Ruins of the walls that were so important 200 years ago remain in place yet today. * The name of the village was originally spelled Cevolleta. Later that was changed to Cebolleta. The current spelling, Seboyeta, was adopted to meet requirements for postal service. There were previous settlements that used the earlier spellings. The word means, “place where onions grow.”

and active herding – all of which permittees will conduct to protect the public’s natural resources. After further review, the court strongly disagreed with WWP, stating the court may not assume that the Forest Service will fail to implement these actions in their Proposed Plan. “The good guys won!,” exclaimed Chaffee County Commissioner Frank Holman. “The Western Watersheds Project is ignorant of the positive impact ranchers have on the land, and that these same ranchers leave the forest in an improved state. This verdict by the government keeps WWP from running over the little guy. This finally proves that cattlemen do not have to put up with invasions to our Western n way of life.”

ness areas. Separately, in 1979 the U.S. Forest Service inventoried their Inventoried Roadless Areas and determined that 36 million acres were not suitable for wilderness; however, public access and use remain severely restricted. Congress’ lax approach to these recommendations means that millions of acres of public land across our country remain in limbo; off-limits to multiple use and set apart from the local planning process. That’s why we introduced the Wilderness and Roadless Area Release Act. Our legislation would end the cycle of indefinite wilderness review and bring nearly 43 million acres of public lands out of purgatory. Specifically, the BLM and Forest Service lands specified above would be released from de facto wilderness management and opened up for multiple use. Our legislation does not direct what type of activities must occur on these lands. Rather, it would return management of these lands to the local Americans who live on and around them and provide them the flexibility to manage them for a multitude of activities. In Wyoming, land that remains locked up by Washington is being ravaged by mountain pine beetles. The infestation has devastated the area, weakening the recreational and environmental value of the land. Since this land remains on Washington’s “do not touch” list, local land managers aren’t able to take steps necessary to address the problem. In California, more than 3 million acres, including tens of thousands in the 22nd district, remain under lock and key unnecessarily. This means many rural and outlying communities that depend on tourism and recreation cannot maximize the potential of the public lands in their area. It also makes it harder for our firefighters to battle wildfires, which can devastate tens of thousands of acres of forest land and release thousands of tons of pollution into the air. Our bill will face strong opposition from environmental extremists and their friends in the administration. But the bottom line is that this legislation is just common sense. It simply acts on the recommendations of the agencies that manage these lands and allows the American people to take advantage of their own land. It’s long past time for Congress to act. Land that isn’t Congressionally recognized as “wilderness,” as well as deemed unsuit-
able for a wilderness designation by the very agencies that manage them, should be opened up for public use and enjoyment. Washington promised to make this choice more than 30 years ago. The Code of the West says, “When you make a promise, keep it.” Washington might not have read the Code of the West, but we have, and we’re going to hold Washington to its promises. This land is the people’s land. It does not belong to the bureaucrats in Washington.

TEXAS PANHANDLE RANCH: 71,059 acres located northwest of Amarillo, Texas. The centerpiece of the ranch is approximately 29 miles of the scenic Canadian River, which essentially runs through the center of the property. The terrain varies dramatically from elevated mesas descending to deep canyons and wide fertile creek bottoms. The property is extremely well improved and very well watered by the river, springs, creeks, and many water wells. Major improvements include a 7,000 square foot owner’s home, 4,500 foot paved landing strip, hand houses, dog kennels, and many extras. The ranch offers some of the best mule deer, whitetail, turkey and quail hunting to be found. Two state record deer have been harvested in recent years, and elk are now coming down the river out of New Mexico. This property has a colorful history and a carefully planned Conservation Easement is in place. This ranch has it all.

SOUTHEAST COLORADO CATTLE RANCH: 12,383 deeded acres together with 640 acres of Colorado State Lease and a Comanche National Grasslands Permit to graze an additional 183 animal units for five months.

As the country transitions from the open plains to the mesa tops the ranch has a fairly dense canopy of juniper, piñon, oak, and scattered ponderosa pine, which offers excellent habitat for turkey, mule deer and elk. Water quality is good and the ranch is exceptionally well watered and adequately improved with functional headquarter improvements including housing, barns and pens. This operating ranch is realistically priced at $425 per deeded acre with the lease and permit being transferred to an approved buyer.

“Cuttin’ Bulls” OWWEE! Holy cow, I think I just cut my finger off!” Said I, looking at the end of it, hanging by a partial fingernail. Autumn, 1988: I was a young cowboy, hungry and looking for work. The opportunity presented itself when an opening came about at a feed yard owned by Oppliger Land and Cattle Co. This was a large operation along the Texas/New Mexico border, with holdings in Nebraska as well. As a matter of fact, it was once credited with being the largest privately owned farm/ranch/feedlot combo in the states of Nebraska and New Mexico. He owned a bunch of land in Texas also, but ask any Texan who is biggest there and they will all tell you they are the biggest operator in Texas. Anyway, it was my first experience with large-scale agriculture, and the first time I heard words like “economies of scale.” Being the new guy, only eighteen, I had to prove myself. The cow boss and the rest of the crew didn’t want too cover for some “kid.” I figured I was up for the challenge . . . it wasn’t my first go-round. When you initially hire out with a large outfit like that, you are generally given jobs, which no one else wants. Once they found out I could cut bulls, I was nominated for the project. Now at first glance, this sounds like a good job. I was pretty excited. I’d spent a lot of time branding cattle before and cutting bulls was one of the better jobs. Boy did I have a lot to learn. First off, like I mentioned, efficiency was the motto here. Bulls were not cut during branding and the initial processing of cattle as they arrived at the feedlot. That would slow down the crew too much. If you are not cutting bulls, a good crew can run cattle through the hydraulic squeeze chute at the rate of several head per minute. Generally, there were five men processing the newbies arriving from the country. Now cutting bulls on the other hand only took a two-man crew and the process was much slower; maybe a couple head per minute or so. When you pencil it out, if there are a lot of bulls to cut, you are better off to re-run the cattle through at a different time using only two men rather than slow down five. Using this model, three men could be doing something else

for that extra couple of hours. Being the fall of the year, my employer was buying cattle to turn out on wheat pastures for the winter month’s . . . lots of cattle. He must have found a good deal on bulls that year, because the feedlot seemed like it was full of them. Ears and tails stuck out of all fences it seemed. The bulls I was to cut ranged from 250 to 500 pounds, but mostly in the 400pound range. Like I said, I thought I’d hit the jackpot when they told me I would be cutting bulls for the next 30 days or so. I soon found out why others thought this a less than desirable job. A typical day went like this: Arrive for work about 5:30 a.m. so you could feed, saddle your horse and be ready for work, which started at 6:00 a.m. sharp. Usually, the guys would sit around drinking coffee in the cowboy shack for 10 or 15 minutes, after saddling, while their horses finished breakfast. This was a good time to go over the day’s plans. Even though it was fall, it still got a little warm in the afternoon; so all bull cutting needed doing during morning hours. At 6:00 a.m., you had better be in the saddle, or you were considered tardy, and given a rash of hooraying by your fellow cowboys. For me, the day began by heading down to whatever pen of bulls was designated for cutting that day, along with my new partner, Pancho. Pancho was from Chihuahua, Mexico, as I recall and he helped me tremendously with my Border Spanish, but that’s another story. He was assigned to the castrating crew with me because he was considered low on the totem pole, also. Pancho and I would bring up the cattle, usually about 225 head in a pen, to the processing barn. Once penned in the crowding alley, Pancho kept the lead-up full of cattle while I ran the chute and changed the bull’s way of thinking, “from fighting, to feeding.” After about an hour, I figured out why nobody else wanted this job. As a bull came into the chute, you were standing at the hydraulic controls. Once the victim was properly squeezed, you leaned over, opened the bottom kick panel on the chute

and put a short rope around the nearside rear leg. You then pulled the leg towards the back of the chute and tied the rope off, thus allowing access to your work area and also it kept the critter from kicking your head off as you started surgery. Then you
either squatted down or sat on a small stool to preform the operation. Meanwhile, Pancho would give a preventative shot of penicillin to the animal, in the muscle, on the other side of the chute. Then he would go back to run more cattle up. Once the bull was a steer, you pulled the
slip knot on the rope, got it from around the back leg, put the kick panel back into place and freed the steer from the contraption, while opening the back gate at the same time. Pancho always had another victim waiting for its turn. Pretty simple ‘eh? That’s what I thought until my legs felt like spaghetti and my back began to ache. Within an hour, I was very tired of standing, leaning over, squatting, standing, sitting, and then standing again . . . on each and every head that came through. As I mentioned before, we averaged about two head per minute. One pen of cattle took around two hours, counting bringing them to and from their pen. We took a small break between pens. The cow boss expected us to do at least two pens each day before lunch, at 11:00 a.m. After lunch, the next couple of hours were spent riding through the new steers, looking for bleeders. Most of the time, a bull that has been changed into a steer will be in a little shock, going to lie down and rest once back home. This helps stop the bleeding. There are times, however, when certain animals just keep bleeding for various reasons. These cattle need to be doctored within a couple hours, or continued on page 171

you risk death. If we came across a bleeder, the procedure was to take him to the nearest hospital pen where there was a chute and give him a dose of Vitamin K in the jugular vein. This and a squirt of blood stop powder on the afflicted area would stop the bleeding every time. I am proud to say that in the over 10,000 head of bulls I cut that fall, only one was lost to bleeding. That has a lot to do with technique during surgery . . . although some old timers claim, “it’s the signs.” Now I am not saying I don’t believe in “the Zodiac signs.” For sure there were times of the month that cattle bled worse than others, but I do know when you have 10,000 plus head to do in under 30 days, you cant wait on the signs to be just right. You need to use good technique. After bleeders were checked the next job was to go through the cattle, which had been cut day’s prior, to look for infections. As you can imagine, a feedlot is not the cleanest place in the world for a freshly steered animal to lie down. And in spite of giving a shot of penicillin during the operation, some became infected later. If we found any infected cattle, we took them to a hospital pen and doctored them. After that, any cattle in the hospital pen, which had been cured and looked good again, were returned to their respective pens. Once said cowboying jobs were taken care of, if there was any time left in the day, we had to clean out drinkers. Now cleaning out drinkers is a nasty job. In a feedlot, about 200 to 250 head of snotty nosed, cud chewing cattle all use the same 15-foot by 2-foot cement water trough located on either side of the pens. Being how Pancho and I were low men in seniority, we often cleaned out nasty water troughs with a wire brush in the last hour or so before going home. So that was my schedule during the first month of employment at Oppliger’s feed yard: cut bulls all morning, ride for bleeders, then infections in the afternoon and, time permitting, clean water troughs before going home at night. That’s how we did it back then; it may have changed by now. Not a very glamorous life, being a feedlot cowboy, but it provided a meager living. As a side benefit, my legs increased in size dramatically as I did about 1,000 squats per day at the chute! Cowboys, being as they are, always had

a lot of practical joking going on . . . just to liven things up a bit. Saddle pads were hidden at night, horse were moved to far-off pens during lunch, dried cow patties were put between slices of bread and then placed in lunch boxes, on and on. Being the new kid on the outfit, a lot of said pranking was pulled on yours truly, but I took it all in stride. There was one feller, named Alan, who took particular joy in rattling my chain. Normally if I couldn’t find my lunch box at mid-day, my pickup after work, or my horse in the morning, he had something to do with it. Also, his pet name for me was “Wuss.” Never used my real name, not even sure he knew what it was. To make things worse, he always said “Wuss” in a way that made me mad. I figured that once I had proved a hand, though, the razzing would slow down; it didn’t . . . not from Alan anyway. One day as he came through the processing barn, I was on the other side of the lead-up, trying to get a sulking bull to stand. I was using one of those big yellow hot shots . . . you know, the ones that look like a big cane and you charge them by
plugging them into an electric socket at night. Yeah, the really big one’s that are frowned upon now-a-days! It just so happened that it was a pretty warm day, and as he paraded through the barn, Alan had his shirt unbuttoned about half way down the front, exposing a chest, glistening with sweat beads. Well, ‘Ol Alan jumps up on the catwalk the other side of the lead-up and says to me, “Hey Jim” (it was the first time he had ever used my proper name), “you know what?” “What?” I replied, about half happy he had called me by name. “I heard you are nothing more than a little Wuss!” He laughed at his supposed cleverness. So, I retorted right back, “Hey Alan, you know what?” “What?” he sneered. I leaned in like I was going to tell him something important; he leaned in likewise. “I heard you are afraid of electricity!” And as I said it, with a slight flick of the wrist, I touched the end of that super snapper to the middle of his wet, exposed chest and laid down the buzzer! Oh boy did he have a look of horror on his face! He tried to back away from the excruciating pain on his chest; and as he did, his feet tangled up. He fell backwards, off the catwalk, hitting his head on a continued on page 173

bucket and almost bit his tongue off in the process! I thought I’d killed him! He recovered fairly quickly however, and came up seeing red. I was thankful for two things right about then: 1) there was a lead-up full of cattle between him and I; and 2) I was much younger and faster than him. I took out of the barn like my hindend was on fire and jumped upon an alley full of bulls, running across their backs like Jesus on water. After clearing two more alleys, I looked back and saw that Alan was going to have trouble following me. He was too old and out of shape to have a chance. Also, just then, one of the other cowboys, who was laughing his butt off, roped Alan around
the upper body, trying to talk some sense into him. As it worked out, Alan finally calmed down and quit all talk about killing me. I was finally able to return to the processing barn. He had one heck of a welt on his chest, a swollen tongue and a big knot on the back of his head. That got him a lot of razzing from the other cowboys. And me, well, I was now one of the gang. I had proven my self-worth. No more disrespect from the guys, I could hold my own in their eyes. Alan and I became good friends after that . . . well maybe a few days later . . . after all; it took a few days for the welt and swelling to go away! Eventually I got off the bull crew, joining the others as hired men a-horseback. No more menial groundwork for me. The next
time a pen of bulls came into the yard, another newbie was nominated for the position. I did, however, get the honor of showing the new guy how to perform his bull cutting duties. The cow boss said I was one of the best “castrators” he had ever seen. While showing the new guy “up close and personal,” I figured he could just hold the leg rope as he watched. I should have known better. Let me tell you folks, when a 400-pound bull is protecting his manhood, always tie the leg rope to something solid. That bull went to kicking when he felt my razor sharp knife. My new protégé let go of the rope so it wouldn’t burn his hands, and THAT is how I almost cut the end of my finger off! It dangled precariously for a few days, but eventually it stuck and healed. To this day, however, when I am at a branding, I’d just a soon let someone else cut bulls.n

Estrays; 36p; Black; -; estrays NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the following described estray animals have been taken under the provisions of Chapter 77, Article 13 of New Mexico Statutes Annotated 1978, and sold for the benefit of the owners of said estrays as provided by law. The proceeds will be subject to claims and proof of ownership as provided by law. New Mexico Livestock Board · Myles Culbertson, Director · Albuquerque, N.M.
at a U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) listening session held in Amarillo, Texas, recently. Representatives from the New Mexico Livestock Board (NMLB) and several producer organizations represented New Mexico’s cattle industry at the meeting. Cattle, bison and captive cervids (wildlife) will be covered by the new rules, while small ruminants will not. In addition, Brucella Suis (swine brucellosis) and Brucella Melitensis will not be included in the rule. “We are working to make sure that the concerns of New Mexico’s livestock industry are heard and addressed by USDA,” said Myles Culbertson, NMLB Director. “We want to keep things workable for our producers while continuing to protect animal health in the state.” Indemnity payments were a top concern for meeting attendees. Under the new rules, the USDA would use a calculator,
estrays July 8, 2011
which would include a number of parameters such as type of animal, age, weight, and stage of milk production, among others, to determine indemnity for a given animal. The value of an animal from a genetic improvement standpoint would not be considered. This would replace the current system of using appraisers, and eliminate the appeals process. The agency’s ability to make indemnity payments was another concern expressed. In its current budget, USDA has $1 million earmarked for TB indemnity payments, and $500,000 earmarked for brucellosis. The most recent infected herd in California was valued at $46 million. State roles and requirements was another topic. There were comments and questions regarding the appearance that the rule would place more responsibilities on individual states, creating an unfunded mandate. The USDA plans to continue their current system of cooperative agreements, however the uncertainty of the federal budget makes it difficult to commit to specific dollar amounts from year to year. Attendees also discussed states’ latitude related to interstate movement controls, and the requirements that USDA would like to see in place for interstate movement of livestock. There has been discussion about whether or not USDA should pre-empt the individual states’ rights to impose requirements greater or stricter than the federal agency. States’ ability to create a zone when practical and applicable to control and manage an animal health situation would continue under the new rule, as would the current system of testing and removal of suspect/reactor animals. “Creating a zone has helped New Mexico control TB while minimizing the costs and impacts to producers in most of the state,” Culbertson said. “We are glad to see this option n included in the new rule.”

Jornada by CURTIS FORT
I
n May of ‘71 it was good to be back to those red rim rocks, cedar trees, good horses and all that made the Bells a real cow outfit. By now it was home. Leo roped out a good string for me, including some of my favorites like Tom-cat, Eagle-eye, and several others . . . including a good night-horse. The night horse was just for wrangling horses when it was your turn. Over the next several days we shod our mounts, gathered and branded the registered calves, and then the cowboys, remuda, and wagon pulled out. There were some new punchers, who were there to make the spring works. All were young but craved cowpunchin’, made good hands and became good friends . . . the kind to “ride the river with”. Jim Peebles was from the Ruidoso Range
and Paul Pharies from Texas. Paul made the Bells his home for the next 30 years. Lil’Bill Nunnally from Ft. Sumner, who was 14 years old, always came in on the drive where he should, and when something ran off, his horn knot was pulled down and he had a loop on ‘em pronto! We worked all the range the next few weeks with no bad wrecks. After we were off a day or so for the Fourth, we gathered the three-year-old geldings. Bert and I spent all of July and a lot of sweat putting ten saddles on each of those broncs. The summer went by too soon and it was time to drift back to the desert range and New Mexico State. I needed eight or ten hours of credit to finish, and was lucky to get all my classes scheduled on Tuesday and Thursday so I could cowboy the rest of the time. Through my friends, the Davises, I got a riding job at the Jornada Ranch. They had the lease on it and Clyde Yarbrough was the manager. Wes Adams was the cowboy boss, and all cowpuncher. I talked to Joyce Jones, who along with Dogie, ranch at Watrous. She was raised on the Jornada and her Grandad, Mr. Christmas, had the lease from 1928 until the early 50s. It was acquired by the USDA in 1912, from the Tour-
ney family. The USDA furnished and paid the help and the person who had the lease let them keep records through the use of ear tags, etc. There was a good set of crossbred cows with some “ear” on them. There were close to three hundred sections of big pastures. The ranch lay between the Doña Ana Mountains and the San Andreas Range, all in the Jornada basin. That area is full of great history . . . conquistadors, Apaches, Civil War, range wars, outlaws and more. The first morning there I went in the office, met Clyde Yarbrough the manager and Wes Adams the cowboy boss, and we had coffee while looking at a big map of the outfit. Then I unloaded my outfit at the horse corrals and Wes roped out a bald faced bay for me. It was not hard to saddle him but he was fat and fresh . . . not a kid horse. He had a slight hump so I led him outside as the horse pen was too small to mount him. Don’t get me wrong . . . I’d rather mount a potential ‘problem’ in a good corral, but wanted Wes to at least think I was pretty forked. I snugged my cinch, turned him around, twisted that left ox-bow and stepped aboard. He hit two hard jumps, reared up, kinda hung in the air and then fell over backwards. I had a two-year-old colt do that to me when I was 15 and skinned me up good. When I was a button,I always had a colt or two I would ride for someone. One, I remember, was a good looking colt but too gentle as he was a pet. On a Sunday after church and a great meal my mom had made, we drifted down to the corrals. I saddled him, led him into a crowding pen and stepped on. The last thing I remember was looking down to hit the off stirrup and ‘bang’ the lights went out. My Dad said he fell over backwards in one quick motion. That bronc had his butt to the two by eight railroad-tie fence. I woke up in the hospital with ‘em taking stitches in my head. I missed several days of school and every day I would hobble continued on page 179

down to the horse corrals and plan my revenge. I did get him broke and going good but from then on I was quick to step off and hang in that left stirrup, when one would stand on his hind legs. Several years later at the Jornada that helped save my bacon . . . the cantle and swells took most of the hit. I came back up with him but to this day still have a hitch in my hip. While I was saddling up I was observing Wes. He had a red handle-bar moustache, a quirt hanging on his wrist, and the outline of a hog-leg in his chap pocket, you could tell he craved that cowboy stuff so I figured we’d get along! He rolled a Prince Albert smoke before he mounted, and his mount was not for kids. We became good friends and we put out lots of horse tracks together, not just at the Jornada. That Fall my job was to go horse back with Wes. I learned a lot from him. He was from that South Texas brush country, where one of my heroes, J. Frank Dobie was from. That was where Dobie said every plant had a thorn barb or hook. Wes sure missed that brush. As we were prowling a pasture, he would ride out of the way to ride through a patch of big brush and hear
the sound it makes dragging on his batwings. My second or third day there we were prowling and came together at a tank. We stepped off, reset our rigs and rolled a smoke. I already figured we were made out of the same ball of dirt, so I said do you ever get kinks in your rope? He had a slight grin as he twisted the end of his handle-bar and blew a cloud of smoke. He said the only way to fix that is to tie on to something and let them hit the end of it. So was a good fall and our mounts and ropes were always in tune. We got into the Fall works, weaning big calves, branding late calves, cutting out dry’s and shipper stuff. Cattle were in good shape and calves were heavy. I was working with good cowboys and decent mounts . . . does it get any better? One morning we hit a high trot to the north end to Tourney Well. The sky was just getting red in the East over the San Andreas Mountains. After we all reset our kaks, Wes sent half the crew with Clyde and the rest of us with him. I came out with my gather at Indian tank, as did Bob and Wes. We held everything up there. Some of those cows were pretty trotty and we needed to make sure they all had their calves or else turn ‘em back. As we popped our leggin’s and started them south, one
big dry outlawed. Wes had a loop that fit those high horns and we stretched her out. We drove the other cattle over close, so when we let her up she would get with them. Wes took his rope off her horns and I kept her hind legs gathered so he could get mounted. She didn’t bounce up snortin’ and hookin’ . . . she “sulled up” and stayed down. She wasn’t tired, hurt or any of that. We’ve all had it happen and do a lot of tail twistin’, but Wes stepped off and pulled a trick I’d never seen! He picked up two ten-inch mesquite sticks, picked up her tail and grabbed the bushy end in his teeth. Then he set back to stretch the tail tight. He put one stick on each side of the tail, grasped the two ends with his hands and rapidly worked the two sticks up and down on her tail. I smelled smoke and in ten seconds she came to her feet in one jump, like they say those old trail herds did in a storm. So the drive came together and the Fall works went on. A couple of years later, at the Bells, they were needing another man. I told Don I knew a good hand that was craving to come North, so he hired Wes. We put out a lot of horse tracks on the Bells. But I’ll always remember a good Fall works at the n Jornada.

Earnest was known world wide for his registered Rambouillet sheep operation. He sold sheep in 22 states, exhibited the champion fleece at the National Western Stock Show 10 times, and retired three flock fleece-traveling trophies, which had to be won three years consecutively to retire the trophy. Ernest’s greatest accomplishment was being the first American to win Champion Fleece of the World in 1989
in Tasmania, Australia. He was also named New Mexico Sheepman of the Year in 1994. Earnest was also devoted to his community serving on the Encino school board for 35 years and helping countless 4-Hers with their projects. Survivors include his wife Jewel; 3 sons Michael, Jeffery, Chris; 2 daughters, Diana Gallegos, Kathrin Dinwiddie; 8 grandchildren; and 2 great-grand children.
