Spring 2013 Milking Shorthorn Journal

For the last four years the first Saturday in February has found me in the bleachers at the La Crosse Center in La Crosse, Wisconsin. In my hands has been either a sign or a picture that I wave frantically at least once if not twice during the day. Sitting with Alice, my sister and brother-in-law Ladd, we stomp our feet, whistle and shout out encouragement with the other family members of the La Crosse Central High School Dance Team. This is fun for a number of reasons. First I adore Emma and Rebekah, the two young women that I am privileged to call nieces; I enjoy making a fool of myself in support of those I love. Second I have no idea what the judges are looking at when they assign their scores: being at an event where all I have to do is scream foolishly without having to know what is going on is such a break from much else in life that is actually relaxing. Third, I am proud of the efforts put out by the La Crosse Central team. Each year they send the smallest number of dancers for any school their size onto the floor. From this simple reality their possibility of winning is greatly

NEW BEGINNINGS
Nothings stays the same! With this President’s Post it is time to say “Goodbye” to David Kendall, our now former Executive Secretary and “Hello and Welcome!” to Cory Salzl our new Executive Secretary. David leaves us April 1st to accept a new position with Taurus Service, Inc. as their Director of Genetic Development. We have been fortunate to have had the services of Dave for the past 11 years. Thanks, Dave, for all the passion, teaching, long hours, and weekends. How many times have we called the office after hours to leave a simple message and had Dave answer the phone? We have been truly fortunate and we wish Dave all the luck in his new endeavor. As Dave said, most people are lucky if they have one dream job in their lifetime. With his acceptance of this new position, Dave will have had two dream jobs. Furthermore, Dave will still be working with the Red, White and Roan in his new position as he investigates and promotes the genetics of multiple breeds for grazing in the modern dairy world. Come to the National Meeting this May in Kansas to find out more about Dave’s new position and how it will be beneficial to the Milking Shorthorn. Our new Executive Secretary, Cory Salzl, brings the same passion and wealth of knowledge that we have come to appreciate and expect from our Executive Secretary. This is evident, in part, by what he has accomplished in just the last six years that he has owned Milking Shorthorns. Many of you already know Cory, but to find out more, see the page “Meet Our New Executive Secretary” in this issue. After June 28th, Cory will be working from his home in Minnesota but he will be receiving phone calls as if he were in Beloit. Another new beginning involves Genetic Evaluations. As far as anyone “out in the country” might perceive, nothing will change as genetic evaluations will continue to be performed just as they are now. The change comes with the establishment of the Non-Funded Cooperative Agreement (NFCA). A cooperative agreement between the Agricultural Research Service of USDA (ARS) and the Council on

reduced (the one thing that I have learned is the size of the team does matter for the complexity of the team maneuvers) yet they always give their best: for me they are always winners. For the last 11 years I have had the humble privilege and honor of working for one of the greatest organizations not only in the US Dairy industry but in all of American Agriculture. The American Milking Shorthorn Society is not the largest organization but this does not slow us down. You, the members of the American Milking Shorthorn Society, continue to work hard both with your own cattle and within the American Milking Shorthorn Society to improve, promote and expand the breed. You, the members of the American Milking Shorthorn Society, take leadership roles seriously, face financial realities squarely and address concerns that affect the future of the Red, White and Roan head on. Contrary to dance competitions I do have knowledge of how dairy cattle societies and business works, you, the members of the American Milking Shorthorn Society are real winners on any scale. If I began a list I know I would leave off people who I respect and who have given so much to my family and me so I will not try. All of you have given so much that I can never repay you. What I can give you is this: Thank you. Forever with the Red, White and Roan…David

Dairy Cattle Breeding (CDCB) hopefully will be signed by the time you read this. ARS will get back to research, which is what they do best and the industry will assume control of genetic evaluations. Two distinguished gentlemen, Dr. Duane Norman, and Dr. Leigh Walton have agreed to work for NFCA to guide this new organization through the transition period. Dr. Norman and Dr. Walton worked in Genetic Evaluations for several years at USDA, starting in 1970. Both retired in 2011. Go to the following site to look at the background of the NFCA and the agreement with ARS and the CDCB.: http://aipl.arsusda.gov/publish/dhi/current/reproall.html News & Events Interested in where our Milking Shorthorn ranks among the dairy breeds for reproduction, SCC, culling, and other health traits? Go to the following sites to find comparisons for all breeds as well as Genetic Evaluation summaries, data queries and research reviews: http://aipl.arsusda.gov/publish/dhi/current/reproall.html http://aipl.arsusda.gov/publish/dhi/current/cullall.html If you are traveling to sales or shows within Wisconsin, be aware that all animals entering that state will be required to have RFID. We will post information on our website as it becomes available. If you are looking to purchase an RFID tag, go to your State DHIA or this link: http://www.eartagcentral.com/home.php?cat=258 I look forward to seeing everyone in Kansas! Susan

A 4-H Project Gone Wild! A
4-H project gone wild is how David Riley’s brother Mark described David’s journey through the champion circles with his Unanimous All-American and Jr. All-American Senior Three-Year-Old, Mi-San Acres O Lust ET. What started as a desire to have something different than his three brothers has blossomed into an amazing adventure for this thirteen-year-old boy. David is the son of Ron and Wendy Riley of Williamsfield, Ohio. A junior member of the AMSS, David said he picked the Milking Shorthorn as his 4-H project because he wanted a different dairy breed to show and develop from his three older brothers. The family farm, once a 130-cow Holstein dairy now boasts a variety of breeds and species. Each boy, as they became showing age, picked a different breed to develop. Mark, David’s 22-year-old brother stated that they have all had some success over the years with their animals, which included Guernseys, Jerseys and Ayrshires, but David’s cow has truly topped the list. When David reached showing age and asked for a Milking Shorthorn, Mark said he contacted Michelle Ritschard, who had judged their local county fair the year before and with whom he had stayed in contact. Michelle told Mark they had an off-age Winter Calf that they could look at. Mark recalled, “Dad and I took off and drove up to upstate New York and did an 18-hour round trip to get her.” Mi-San Acres O Lust-ET is a Kuszmar Alfairs Othello daughter from a 3E-92 All-
American dam with records to 26,300M 1026F 794P. Lust’s show winnings include Junior All-American Winter Calf and Reserve All-American in 2009; Reserve Junior All-American and Honorable Mention All-American Winter Yearling in 2010; Junior All-American and All-American Senior Two-Year-Old 2011.

Wick helped establish a number of Native herds in the Southeastern United States. Wick donated a set of Coates Herd Books to the American Milking Shorthorn Society that includes the original Coates Herd Book One.

Readers meet the 16-year-old Halie Gruenwald from Lost Nation, Iowa. Halie is involved in FFA and 4-H and has every intention of staying in the agriculture industry. She is the 4th generation to showcase the dairy cattle at Elron Farms and has been showing the Elron prefix since the age of six. Her family has been in the Milking Shorthorn industry for over 70 years! Currently their farm has 5 cows and 6 heifers. She has been showing at the Iowa State Fair Open Show since she was six years old. Halie was introduced to Milking Shorthorns at the young age of 3 by her grandpa, Elron. At the Jackson County Fair her grandpa would let her show his cows and she has loved it ever since! Her favorite show is the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines, Iowa because that is where she started showing Milking Shorthorns. She
recalls her grandpa letting her walk in the ring with him. This year she exhibited the Reserve Champion heifer, Elron Megadeth WrigleyEXP, at the Kentucky National Milking Shorthorn Show, along with winning Champion heifer at the Iowa State Fair and Jackson County Fair. Halie’s most memorable moment of showing was when her grandpa and Cousin Linda took her to Kentucky for the North American International Livestock Exposition. She loved watching the shows, meeting new people, and being with the cows. While attending various shows, her favorite activity is getting the cows ready for the show and spending time with them. Above prepping the cattle and quality time with them, her favorite day is show day and showing her cattle. Congratulations to Halie on a great show season!
