Worth the Wait...
Selling this fall will be the finest show steer and heifer prospects we have ever produced!
Featured sires include... Monopoly, Smiling Bob, Bo Jo, Movin On, Headliner, Eye Candy, One and Only, Unforgiven, Tiger Woods, Hairy Bear, Dream Catcher and Trendsetter. Highlighting the offering will be a large number of Monopoly sired ET prospects from our powerful donors. Few programs will offer more...or any better individuals by this exciting sire.
October 25-26th Selling many sibs to this popular, many times champion shown by the Kevin Jensen family!
Check website frequently for photo and video updates.
WAIT for calves to develop before making purchases. Calves change a bunch from August to October and the longer you wait before making selections...the better. It’s a fact, important structural soundness and phenotypic traits are much easier to evaluate as calves mature so do not hurry this process. Selling later creates more satisfied owners...making it well worth your wait! Featuring the very best from nearly 400 calves produced in 2011!

Showmanship Points by Division Oklahoma Club Calf Association - September 2011
If you’re from Oklahoma, you are tired of the HOT AND DRY. It is the hottest summer recorded. This week makes the 60th day over 100 degrees. and in the southern half of the state the 90th day. Please pray for rain and cooler temps. We Okies have had enough! I hope everyone made it home safe from Jr. Nationals. Most people are getting ready for or are at county fair. Good luck. State Fairs are just around the corner, and everyone is getting ready. Hope it is cool enough the cattle don’t loose all their hair. The Wanted Ones Sale is coming up during the Tulsa State Fair. If you have cattle to consign, contact the sale manager, Morgan Sheive, and she will be happy to assist you. Entry forms are available online at our website, www.oklahomaclubcalfassociation.com. Remember, if you purchased cattle in the sale last year, you are eligible for the show back on Friday, October 7th, in the afternoon. Again, we want to thank our Platinum Sponsors: Cinch, Cruel Girl, Purina, and CM Trailers. Without you, we could not help these great kids. Good luck at the State Fairs, and we will see you at The Wanted Ones Sale on October 7 at 5:00 P.M.
Tim B Stidham, OCCA President
www.oklahomaclubcalfassociation.com Note: According to OCCA Rules, winners of the “Overall Top 10 Exhibitors” are not eligible to compete for “District Awards”.

Kansas Club Calf Association
Hope everybody is staying halfway cool and sane this very hot summer!!! Lots of very hot days and no rain has put many of us in bad situations, to say the least. If you are some of the fortunate who have gotten rain this summer---please pray for those of us that have gotten no rain, and there is very little chance to come. You are all probably wondering what has happened to the point postings on Ranchhub.com. As it turns out, the company has changed ownership, which created some complications for our website while that was happening. In the meantime, I had sent results from many shows that did not get put in or documented. So I am currently in the process of redoing and recounting all show points clear back to the first one, as many of them had duplications and errors in them. I am also working on getting the showmanship listings up to date. There will be a new listing soon, but I am not going to promise when. On a personal note: I am currently in the process of a divorce and moving back to Kansas to live. Have many loose ends to tie up in Oklahoma but am gaining on it. I am also starting at least one maybe two new businesses in Kansas. My target date is to be back on the Ranch by September 1, 2011, and able to spend whatever time is needed to get this all together and available for everyone to see. Please be patient with me. I will get it all done before KJLS. There are some tentative plans for the year-ends and so on, but the Board will be voting on them at the upcoming meeting. News will be out following the meeting. If you have suggestions for year-end awards, please contact your directors and give them your input. Please contact your Board member, either Junior or Adult, with any comments, changes or concerns that you may have. All issues of bylaw changes or policy changes will need to be in writing, signed by members and board member. We are still learning here and the outcome for the year is looking really good!!! CHARLES & SALLY OLIVIER MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP CONTEST: 2011 Please contact me or your board member if you are interested. This program will be held for any KCCA member High School Junior or Senior Students who are planning to attend college or College Freshmen in the fall of 2011. The contest will consist of an application and a public speaking contest to be held in conjunction with the Fall Outlaw Showdown Show and Calf Sale to be held weekend of November 5 and 6, 2011. There will be two $250 (maybe more!) scholarships awarded to one boy and one girl participating in the contest. Monies will be paid directly to bursars office of the university or college upon receipt of copy of “ letter of acceptance” by the scholarship committee. We have previously awarded five scholarships in the past three years. We already have some more things going for next year, as well.

Agenda
For the KCCA & Junior Directors State Fair Meeting
1. Discuss our situation with Ranchhub.com—they have left us hanging in the point postings. 2. Establish the Showmanship point basis, since many shows did not place over two kids. 3. Establish a plan for buying awards for the year-end banquet. Several districts have not reached their goals yet of $1,000 per district. Those who have reached their goals are the Northwest and South Central. 4. All other districts need to pursue this as soon as possible for funding their year-end award sponsor goals of $1,000 per district. I am sure that each goal can be reached with a little effort by the junior and adult directors. 5. Establish place for the banquet to be held with the Winter Expo at Hutchinson?? Quint has checked with the hotel, and we can use a room in affiliation with the show. If we do that we must buy food there—alterna-
174 September/October 2011 • theshowcircuit.com
tive is to have the banquet at the fairgrounds and do our own meal which we have some sponsor help with. Discuss the meal plan and sponsor issues with the year-end plans. 6. Resolutions for By-Laws and rule changes will be considered by the Adult and Junior Board. Any and all requests shall be in writing and be submitted to your district board member or sent to the Executive Director for consideration. These shall be signed forms provided and not accepted in email format. Form to be provided with letter that goes out. The board will then decide which ones and how and if they shall be presented for vote by the general membership. 7. The plans for 2012 show sanctioning rules and so on shall be reviewed, and any new and different ideas may be considered (ie. too many shows in any one district on the same day, etc.). 8. Any other items, to be introduced by directors.

The Bottom Line is MULTIMIN is a Good Investment ®
Griswold Cattle Company is owned by John, Greg and Garfield Griswold of Stillwater, OK and Kim Klotz of Steward, NE. We run cattle in Dupree, SD and Stillwater, OK. They are all registered either Angus, Simmentals or Maine Anjou. We also run a stocker operation.
We know that minerals are very important in raising cattle. If their minerals are not up to snuff, you are definitely going to have problems. MULTIMIN is definitely good for general overall health. It just makes them better.
Our cattle are well accepted throughout the industry for being a moderate framed, stout, nice bags, easy-doing kind of cattle. We want our cows to be healthy, calve on their own and have the calves get up and suck.
Our bulls get MULTIMIN for improved sperm and reproduction and we use it on all our cows and calves. The biggest advantage we’ve seen is in our AI donor cows. We’re getting increased production of eggs and a definite increase in grade #1 embryos along with significantly higher conception rates, plus the calves seem to be healthier. Our cattle and calves have strengthened immune systems and we’ve had less treatment of sick animals.
We market our cows through three sales a year (a bull sale in April, an Angus/Semmental sale in August and a female sale in December) and have been able to command a premium for our cattle because they perform well for the customers that buy them. We like selling good-doing cattle that the customers have good luck with. We’ve been using MULTIMIN going on 3 years. We have a good oral mineral program but we think that MULTIMIN definitely adds to it.
Protect Your Bottom Line... John Griswold Greg Griswold
Don’t Vaccinate Without It!
When we first started using MULTIMIN, it looked like it was expensive but after reviewing the records, improved conception rates and overall health of our cattle; we believe it is one of the most cost-effective additions we’ve made to our herd health management program. The bottom line is MULTIMIN has been a good investment for Griswold Cattle Company.

Advancing Your Genetic Opportunities
Every breeder has unique breeding goals and strategies for their program. These breeders know that breeding elite cattle requires knowledge, strategy and patience. Today, there are many advanced reproductive technologies that serve as tools that allow breeders to further achieve and improve their genetic goals. There may be a particular animal in a herd that has significant value to the owner. It may be for their production capability, their pedigree, the offspring they produce, their superiority in the show ring, or any other number of reasons. Through cloning, producers can duplicate the animals that contribute the most value in their herds, by producing an identical twin, born at a later place in time. Cloning allows producers to maximize the benefits of bestpossible animal genetics, or even recapture superior genetics that have been lost due to reproductive inefficiencies, or even death. “The owners of elite individuals are using cloning technology for several reasons. In most cases, cloned animals are very elite bulls or cows within a breed, and the breeder may choose to preserve their genetics as a basic form of insurance,” said Diane Broek, general manager of Bovance, the leading bovine cloning company in the U.S. “Once an animal has a tissue sample taken, a cell line is established, and the breeder then has the ability to clone that animal at any time in the event that something happens to the original animal. Breeders then have the ability to fill the void in their herd that would have been very difficult to fill, and they can keep the genetic influence going, long after the loss of the original genetic donor animal.” Cloning also provides breeders with more reproductive options in relation to their valued animal. It allows breeders to recapture superior genetics by cloning previously neutered animals, such as steers, to be able to influence their future breeding decisions with those genetics. Breeders fre-
quently choose to replicate the genetics of an elite donor female or a superior bull, allowing them to achieve ¬a greater genetic impact within their herd or breed by creating more opportunities to produce embryos or semen. The demand for this ability to utilize a specific genotype to the fullest, stretches across breeds…to both beef and dairy sectors. Bovance (which is joint venture between Trans Ova Genetics and ViaGen) has produced clone animals from over 20 different breeds of cattle and has genetically preserved in excess of 1000 animals. One of the advantages breeders find when cloning elite animals, is that they are already aware of what the animal’s potential is, based on the donor animal’s performance or genomic evaluation. The genetic opportunities that the clone’s offspring displays will be the same as the offspring produced by the original animal since the clone and the genetic donor share the same genotype. However, an important fact for breeders to keep in mind – although their genetic base will be identical, some variation may occur in the phenotype of the clone as compared to the genetic donor. Environmental factors including care, illness, or even injury will contribute to the appearance of the cloned animal as it matures. One example of this maybe a variation in color pattern if the animal is spotted. Although the spot pattern will be similar, the migration of melanoblasts, which determine coat color, can provide some slight variations. There are additional environmental factors that contribute to the mature appearance of a cloned calf. These factors can include date of birth, nutrition and feeding, disease, etc. Breeders spend a lifetime attempting to produce that one great animal with characteristics that are considered superior or ideal. When they achieve that goal, they can now be reassured that there is a tool available to repeat that experience more than once in a lifetime. September/October 2011 • theshowcircuit.com

Big, Bad and Not Done
By Sharla Ishmael
The 2011 drought has devastated large parts of cattle country, leaving many producers with very hard decisions to make.
About the only silver lining from the drought that has run a full year this September is now you can say, “I was there when….” We’ve heard the horror stories from the ‘50s drought, when producers had to shoot cattle and bury them because there was no other alternative but to let them starve to death. You’ve probably read stories about the Dust Bowl of the 1930s that caused mass migrations of people out of the Great Plains. Experts today are saying the 2011 drought may be shorter in length (so far), but it is a major weather event for the history books with records being set left and right for both high temperatures and complete lack of precipitation. For example, the National Weather Service reports rainfall deficits in southeast Texas and the Upper Gulf Coast area in the range of 25 to 30 inches. That part of the state has been dry for the last three years, in fact.
The Year It Didn’t Rain Overall, the Lone Star State has experienced the driest 10 months on record between October 2010 and July 2011. At last report, 95% of the state was classified as either extreme or exceptional drought, and 94% of the rangeland was described as poor or very poor. My weatherman in Dallas-Fort Worth confirmed this week that this summer was hotter in North Texas than the still-cussed summer of 1980. The record-high lows made the difference – it just never cooled off during any part of the day. Cattle liquidation has been so significant there were reports in July of auction barns running 24 hours a day and turning trailers away because they couldn’t handle all the cattle that producers needed to sell this summer. For long weeks at a time there weren’t even any clouds to help offset the blazing sun and the ground literally baked and cracked like a cake in the oven. In Oklahoma, most areas in the state experienced one of their top three driest years since 1921. The National Weather Service reported on July 22 that most rivers and creeks in the area were flowing at
244 September/October 2011 • theshowcircuit.com
rates that are below average for the time of year and reservoirs were from 1 to 25 feet below normal. As one example of the consequences for agriculture, the excessive heat caused winter wheat to mature faster and harvest began earlier than normal with much lower yields. The outlook for stocker operators and others who depend on wheat pastures for winter grazing is poor. Towns have been hit with cracked water pipes under the stress of the dry soils, and some towns in Texas have started to haul water in from other areas. At times, there have been rolling blackouts as electricity demand overwhelmed state grids. Both Texas and Oklahoma have lost millions of acres to wildfires. According to the Texas governor’s office, local and state crews have responded to more than 20,900 fires that have destroyed more than 1,000 homes and burned 3.6 million acres. And the fires continue to burn in both states in early September, fueled by strong winds from a dry cold front and the farthest reaches of Tropical Storm Lee. While these two states have been hardest hit by most accounts, there are others suffering, too.
Outside of OK & TX According to the High Plains Regional Climate Center in August, “Dryness prevailed across southern Kansas, eastern Colorado, central Wyoming, eastern South Dakota and northern North Dakota. Extreme to exceptional drought conditions persisted across much of southern Colorado and southern Kansas. While some areas of extreme drought conditions in Colorado were downgraded, relief was not in store for southern Kansas.” Dodge City, Kan., recorded its driest summer on record with only 1.58 inches of rain, and the city set records for consecutive numbers of days above 100 degrees (as did many cities in the region). Cattle sales in Kansas were three-times higher than normal for the month of July. In mid-August, the National Weather Service Southern Region Headquarters put southeast Iowa, west central Illinois and ex-
U.S. Drought Monitor August 30, 2011 Author: Eric Luebehusen, USDA Abnormally Dry Moderate Drought Severe Drought Extreme Drought Exceptional Drought
treme northeast Missouri in the moderate drought category. By September 1, the same report put a large area of central Illinois into the severe drought category. The National Agricultural Statistics Service categorized as fair condition or worse: 59% of the corn crop and 52% of the soybean crop in that part of the state. Topsoil moisture was reported “very short” in 35% to 50% of the area. Not to mention Arkansas, Louisiana and large swaths of the Southeast, plus other Midwest states to varying degrees. Even the desert Southwest, where it’s always terribly dry and hot, those folks experienced record-breaking heat and drought, too. In some parts of the Midwest and Great Plains, forecasters are currently saying there could be some relief for them this fall. But in Texas, Oklahoma and other states typically more affected (in a negative way) by the La Niña weather phenomenon that started all this mess, the forecast is bleak. Producers attending the Texas A&M Beef Cattle Short Course in August were told there is a 50/50 chance of another La Niña starting up again this winter.
What Caused The Drought In short, La Niña results from interaction between the surface of the ocean and the atmosphere in the tropical Pacific, which affects global weather patterns. “La Niña often features drier than normal conditions in the Southwest in late summer through the subsequent winter,” according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). “Drier than normal conditions also typically occur in the Central Plains in the fall and in the Southeast in the winter. Additionally, on average, La Niña winters are warmer than normal in the Southeast and colder than normal in the Northwest.” NOAA also explains that La Niña conditions typically last approximately 9-12 months, but some episodes may persist for as long as two years. The good news is, supposedly in back-to-back La Niñas, the second time around is likely to be weaker. The bad news is
so much damage has been done already that it likely won’t matter. So, what’s a producer to do? Try to scrounge up enough highpriced hay and other supplements to make it until the rain comes? Sell out now while cow prices are really good? Move as many as you can to another place, be it grass or a confinement situation? Depends. “Blanket statements about proper management strategies are completely inappropriate,” says Dr. Ron Gill, extension livestock specialist for Texas AgriLife Extension and associate department head. The department has published drought management resources on the extension animal science website (http://texashelp.tamu. edu/004-natural/droughts-animal-science.php). “Recommendations will be based on the most common situations observed during drought.” In other words, take expert advice for what it’s worth — with the understanding it may not apply to your individual operation. Option 1: Culling and destocking In an ideal world, a producer in a drought-prone area would have already carefully culled enough animals to match the ranch’s forage base without having to supplement extra feed. Of course, the longer the drought wears on, the less realistic that scenario becomes. The next question is: Do I cull more and which ones should I sell? Or, do I find somewhere else for my cattle to live for a while, either leased ground out of the area or perhaps a confinement situation? Gill recommends producers, “keep cows that are least susceptible to nutritional stress caused by poor forage conditions. This will be the mid-aged cows between 4 and 10 years of age. At lower body condition scores (BCS 3 and 4), cows of this age will average 35% and 20% higher conception rates than first- or second-calf cows, respectively.” The disadvantage of keeping older cows, obviously, is less longevity and decreased milking ability. However, because they give less milk and therefore tend to have lighter calves, that may be why the older cows have higher conception rates at any given BCS, he says.

“If condition can be maintained on second-calf cows, they can also be kept in the herd. Go ahead and sell replacements heifers and any other cow that will not wean a calf this production year. If a place can be found to hold these cattle economically, there may be justification for retaining ownership. Cull first-calf heifers next. There are two primary reasons. These two groups of cattle are normally the most expensive to develop and maintain and have the lowest production potential,” Gill says. Option 2: Move them Ted McCollum, beef cattle specialist with Texas AgriLife Extension, addresses alternatives for moving cattle off the ranch: “One long-term advantage can be the health and productivity of pasture and rangeland. Grazing an area below critical residue levels can enhance soil erosion. Continued grazing of plants that may attempt to grow following spotty rainstorms can weaken the plant’s root system and reduce future standlife, vigor and production. “Another potential advantage is lower costs for holding the cattle,” he explains. “Budgets indicate that the annual lease cost for pasturing a mature cow ranges from $80-$120/cow/year, or about $6.50 to $12 per cow per month. Under drought conditions, with higher demand for pasture, the cost may be higher. But, if a cow consumed 25 lbs. of forage per day, hay would have to cost less than $35/ton in order to compete with pasture that rents for $12/cow/month.” If considering leasing pasture vs. buying hay – assuming you can find some of either commodity – transportation, labor and supplements must be figured into the calculations, as well as the security of the lease place. There have been a lot of problems reported with folks putting cattle out on leased land and finding them either not taken care of or stolen. The next option is a little more unconventional – using grower yards, backgrounding facilities, heifer development operations or your own confined facilities to feed your cattle relatively low-cost concentrates for a time instead of grazing or haying. “If heifer calves that are intended for replacement are kept, then
246 September/October 2011 • theshowcircuit.com
they are good candidates to ship to a backgrounding yard where they can be grown out to proper weights in a cost-efficient manner,” McCollum says. “These are probably the most costly cattle to keep on the ranch and attempt to feed. The only reason to send cull cows off to another location is to possibly increase flesh and value prior to sale. The economics of this program need to be evaluated carefully.” Option 3: Limit the damage If you’re determined to cull hard and keep your cattle on your own place, another option is to put cows in small pastures or traps to reduce the wear and tear on your bigger, better pastures and limit movement, which decreases their nutrient demand. “The least productive areas should be considered so as to minimize damage to the forage resource in the more productive pastures,” says Dr. Rich Machen, livestock specialist with the Texas AgriLife Extension. “If small pastures/traps are not available, selected water troughs can be turned off or ponds fenced off and thereby concentrate animals near available water.” However, you have to be careful when using water to restrict the movement of animals. You’ll also be concentrating wildife access to the same water sources and more mingling of cattle with wildlife in closer quarters increases the occurrence of disease transmission. However, in extreme situations, you may be able to keep a nucleus of your herd together by feeding them out in these smaller areas, doing everything you can to limit their nutritional needs by providing shade, restricting travel, etc. Then you can not only hold on to the cows (assuming the dollars work on the purchased feeds), but also give your drought-stressed grass and land a chance to recover when it finally does start to rain. Machen has another tip: Sort cows by expected nutrient requirements. For example, take a cow with a 60-day old calf at side and another cow who is 30 days post-weaning. Their needs are very different and if you feed them together, you may overfeed the dry cow and underfeed the lactating momma.
Some Things Can’t Be Cut
In times like these when every dollar counts, you need every mouthful those cows eat to matter. If you’re depending on hay this fall, consider comments from Dr. Britt Hicks, area livestock specialist with the Oklahoma Research & Extension Center, on research out of the University of Minnesota, which indicates limit feeding of hay to cows (limiting the time they have access to hay) can be very beneficial. The researchers studied gestating Angus cows that were given different amounts of time to round-bale hay feeders and how that affected their body weight, hay intake and hay waste. While cows with 24-hour access to the hay did have heavier body weights, they also ate more and wasted more, and the extra weight may not be necessary anyway. “These researchers concluded that restricting the time cows have access to large round bales of hay to as little as three hours per day will result in acceptable cow performance, depending on hay quality,” Hicks noted. “In addition, limiting time of access will also reduce hay use by limiting intake and decreasing hay waste, thereby reducing feed costs for the cow-calf producer.” Another feeding alternative to consider is using drought-damaged corn plants. According to Oklahoma Extension beef cattle specialists David Lalman and Chis Richards, “Corn plants can be utilized as hay, silage or grazed forage. However, a few considerations are necessary due primarily to the stress that drought-damaged plants have undergone. These include nitrate concentration, alfatoxin concentration, moisture for ensiling and proper drying for baling.” Using ammoniation of low-quality roughages is another option for producers. Applying anhydrous ammonia to crop residues and low-quality roughages from CRP lands, etc. can improve nutritive value, increase digestibility, increase roughage intake and crude protein content of feedstuffs that you wouldn’t ordinarily utilize. Whatever you decide to feed, here are some cautionary tips on drought feeding management from Dr. Dennis Herd, professor emeritus in animal nutrition at Texas A&M University: • Use of salt to limit feed intake may increase water intake 50% to 75%, or approximately 50 gallons of additional water for each pound of salt. Water must not be limited in any way or salt toxicity may result. • Overconsumption of urea-containing supplements by cattle on forage-scarce ranges can result in urea toxicity. Generally, cattle performance on urea-type supplements is also poor whenever energy or forage is in short supply. • Hay cut under moisture stress conditions, especially sorghumtype hays, may contain high levels of nitrate. If in doubt, it would be good to test for nitrate before feeding such hays, especially before feeding large amounts. • Prussic acid or cyanide poisoning can also be a problem in grazing drought-stunted plants such as Johnson grass, sorghum, sorghum hybrids or sudan grass If forage for hay is allowed to sun cure thoroughly for three to five days, bleaching out any bright green color, prussic acid should not be a problem.
It’s times like these when every dollar counts, you need every mouthful those cows eat to matter.
Feeding Alternatives Finally, while cutting back on costs to survive the drought, know there are two places that you simply can’t cut. One is your health program. Gill says as cattle graze on shorter forage, the chances of picking up soil-born pathogens increase. Blackleg, leptospirosis and anthrax are some of the diseases that occur more frequently during drought. Don’t let up on protection against reproductive diseases like vibrio, because nutritional stress affects reproduction enough as it is. His best advice – check with your local veterinarian about the hot issues he or she is noticing. “Even if the ranch has been through drought cycles before, you may not have seen or heard about all the possible problems.” Gill also cautions against cutting back on mineral supplementation, particularly in places where phosphorus is deficient (like Texas), as phosphorus is very important to reproductive performance. The last tip may be the hardest to resist – if you have to sell cows because of the drought, don’t use that money to keep buying more feed for the ones you have left. Gill says, “This practice will leave a ranch broke and without cows in an extended drought.”
• Cattle grazing short pastures are more likely to consume toxic plants. • Alternate-day feeding of protein supplements, like cottonseed cubes, has been recommended to save labor. This practice is still good for high-protein supplements, but should not be used for grain-type supplements. High-energy supplements (grain, breeder cubes, etc.), should be fed daily, especially where 3 to 6 pounds or more may be fed. • Rumen impaction may result where cattle receive inadequate protein (less than 7 percent CP in total diet) and too much of a low-quality, high-fiber forage, such as drought pasture or prickly pear or forage substitutes like peanut hulls, straws or gin trash. Lack of adequate water will aggravate the impaction problem. • Hardware disease can be a problem with hay harvested from vacant city lots, roadsides, etc. Such feed may contain nails, wire, or other foreign objects which can pierce the rumen wall, resulting in death of the animal.

ommon Misconceptions
Regarding Distillers Grains Plus Solubles
Just like almost any subject, the greater the notoriety, the greater the number of misconceptions regarding its use. In this article I choose to clarify some of the misconceptions regarding the feeding of corn distillers grains to beef cattle.
cover with a plastic tarp. We feed wet DGS year around with minimal storage loss. These low cost storage methods work well for modified wet DGS (40% - 60% moisture) but not well for high moisture DGS (greater than 60% moisture).
Misconception #1: Corn gluten and corn distillers grains are the same thing.
Misconception #3: All corn DGS are the same.
Some facts: Corn gluten is the by-product from converting corn grain into fructose. Corn gluten can be sold as corn gluten meal (CGM) or as corn gluten feed (CGF). Corn gluten meal is much higher in protein (around 46%) than corn gluten feed (around 25%). Corn gluten feed is sold as either dry (10% moisture) or wet (40 - 60% moisture). Corn distillers grains with solubles (DGS) is the by-product from converting shelled corn to ethanol. It too, can be sold dry (DDGS) or wet (WDGS ranging from 40% to 70% moisture). Generally DGS is higher in protein, fat and energy than CGF. Four rules-of-thumb can be considered when using these by-products in cattle diets: • pound for pound, CGF is priced lower than DGS but CFG contains less net energy for gain than DGS. • the addition of DGS to finishing rations raises dietary energy level more than CGF when replacing shelled corn. • when low cost roughage is available, DGS is more attractive than CGF when added at higher dietary levels. • when dietary roughage is expensive CGF inclusion may lower feed costs. Some feedlot operations are including both CGF and DGS into finishing diets as replacements for corn grain when by-product inclusion levels exceed 45% of the diet dry matter (DM). While research at Illinois State University has shown that finishing diets can include up to 70% DGS, several producers have combined CGF and DGS to increase byproduct inclusion up to 60% of the diet DM.
Some facts: Corn DGS very substantially from plant to plant and within a plant from one time to another time. Distillers grains can vary in nutrient content based on the amount of condensed distillers solubles (CDS) also, known as syrup, the plant adds to the distillers grains. Protein content, amount of fat, phosphorous percent and sulfur concentration are primary nutrients that can vary substantially. Only purchase DGS, from plants with a current (weekly) nutrient analysis. If you are a swine producer, here is a plug for United Feeds. As a service for their customers, United Feeds provides a nutrient analysis and relative cost/value of DDGS produced by selected ethanol plants. This is a great service and allows swine producers the ability to vary the amount and source of DDGS in their swine diets based on a current cost of feed analysis. This puts the swine producers using United Feeds ahead of other swine producers and ahead of the beef industry.
Misconception #2: I’m a cattle feeder with a small feedlot, I can’t feed high moisture DGS (WDGS) because it will spoil too fast. Some facts: Research at Illinois State University (printed in the Nov/Dec 2010 and March 2005 issues of Show Circuit) has reported two, low cost methods for storing high moisture DGS. When very low volumes of DGS are fed daily (feeding 50 cattle or less) a vacuum method can successfully store wet DGS. When higher volumes of DGS are fed daily (feeding 200 - 300 cattle) the salting method works very well. At Illinois State University we fill a 20’ wide by 80’ long by 10’ high bunker with wet DGS, level the top, hand sprinkle one lb. of salt per one square foot and
Misconception #4: I don’t have a feed mixer so I can’t include DGS in my diets. Some facts: Certainly a portable, batch, feed mixer (and there are several makes and models available) facilitates the use of by-product feedstuffs, their incorporation into balanced diets and their correct distribution in rations. Portable vertical grinder-mixers have been a great invention for making cost effective diets containing wet CGF and DGS in combination with lower cost roughages. However, CGF and DGS can be effective dietary ingredients when top dressed onto corn silage or ground hay, or when fed at a bunk separate from hay feeders. It is more accurate and diets can be optimized when a home mixed, pre-mix containing an ionophore, thiamine and calcium carbonate can be added to shelled corn, DGS and corn silage in a horizontal portable mixer and bunk distributed similar to the way rations are fed at the ISU Farm. But, several companies sell supplements specifically designed to complement rations containing CGF and DGS as either a top dress or as part of a total mixed ration. The list of misconceptions goes on but a general summary statement is that CGF and DGS can be utilized effectively by larger and smaller cattle operations and by both feedlot and cow-calf producers.

announcements
new teaM MeMber at the show CirCuit The Show Circuit is happy to announce the addition of Sharla (Adams) Ishmael to our talented team as our new Editorial Director. As we continue to expand our editorial selection, Sharla’s experience in both the cattle industry and the magazine business will be an asset to our readers. She grew up in the registered Charolais business in Texas and New Mexico and showed both steers and heifers across the country with many champions under her belt. Sharla was also very involved in the junior Charolais association and FFA. She’s a graduate of Texas A&M University, where she judged on the1992-93 livestock judging team. After college, Sharla worked for Texas & Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association for six years as both editorial director and manager of the beef quality assurance program that she helped to create for Texas cow-calf producers. You may have seen some of her articles in magazines like BEEF, Beef Today, Western Cowman, Angus Journal, Charolais Journal and others. Sharla and her husband, Wes Ishmael, live in Benbrook, Texas, where they run their own business, Clear Point Communications. They have a daughter who is 9, Josie, and a son who is 6, Brooks. “I am really looking forward to writing for the people who breed and show some
of the best cattle in the business,” she says. “There is still nothing like looking at really good cattle, especially when you know people have spent years building their breeding program. And as a product of the youth livestock program, I can honestly say that every job I’ve ever had, every tuition bill I ever paid, many of my lifelong friends, all of that I can attribute to the opportunities I had showing cattle as a kid. “As a parent now myself, I can truly appreciate what it takes to give your kids the same valuable experiences that you had with livestock,” she adds. “As we undergo some major changes in the editorial of the Show Circuit, always striving to bring you the latest and best information possible, I hope you’ll feel free to shoot me an email or phone call if you’ve got an interesting story idea or know someone who deserves to be profiled in our pages. It’s your magazine!”

There To here . . .
How did you get from there to here? It’s a question I get asked quite often. So before I start to share my adventures, passion for agriculture agvocacy, and turquoise jewelry in this new Show Circuit column, I’ll tell you a little bit about my there-to-here. I grew up in Alberta, Canada, on a purebred Simmental farm. My sister and I were very active in showing cattle through 4-H and the junior Simmental program, which meant my mom and dad drove us many miles across the province and Canada to livestock shows. So how does a fair skinned, blonde girl wearing brightly colored Rockies (yeah, I wore those) end up in Iowa, surrounded by cornfields, trying to convince her fiancé that we should raise Simmental cattle, as well as his beloved Herefords? When I was 16, two of the people that I looked up to most in the junior cattle show circle made the decision that they were going to head south and pursue livestock judging scholarships at junior colleges. A year later, I received a phone call from each of them saying that I needed to get myself down to Kansas and start looking at colleges. They knew that the agricultural communication and livestock judging programs that the U.S. offered would be right up my alley. Those two ladies were right, and I ended up at Butler Community College in El Dorado, Kan., with not a single person on our 12 man freshman team being from Kansas. We were to out-of-staters, and I was the token Canadian. After two years at Butler, livestock judging and Kansas were in my blood, which meant all roads led to Kansas State University. Manhattan quickly became American home. There is something about that town and those Flint Hills that makes you feel instantly at home. I continued to work on my Agricultural Communication and Journalism and Animal Science and Industry degrees while competing on the livestock judging team and being active in K-State’s College Cattlewomen, among a variety of other college activities. Around each turn there were new friends to be made and a growing network. People wanted to see me succeed, and I wasn’t going to let them down. Graduation was approaching, and it was time to make some life decisions. An internship at with the American Hereford Association secured my decision that I wanted to remain in the U.S. for a while longer. I had my resume out there and some leads, but the big-

gest opportunity would come from a friend that had been interning at the Angus Journal passing my name along. An interview turned into almost four years of employment with the world’s largest breed association, the American Angus Association, and more importantly the opportunity to work with and be mentored by some of the most talented communication and public relations people in the business. You have to have the skills, but don’t ever forget sometimes it is who you know. This fall it is time for a new adventure. Cattle brought the love of my life and I together, and that means Hereford cattle, corn, and Iowa are entering the picture. Getting married means change, but it will also opened the door for more opportunities. This time I will get to focus my passion towards youth, livestock, and agriculture through working with Vita Ferm, the makers of Sure Champ. Between there and here was college, internships, jobs, livestock shows, and road trips, but while I was spending time doing all the things I loved, something was changing. People were asking more about where their food comes from, organic and natural were becoming more mainstream, and animal rights groups like PETA and HSUS (Humane Society of the United States) were being taken more
seriously. Within six months of my graduation from K-State, articles promoting vegetarianism were appearing in our school newspaper, which had been pretty conservative in the past. It made me so mad that people could attack agriculture, my family’s way of life, and the things I grew up doing. I quickly realized that I had the opportunity to tell a story just like that K-State journalist had. In the past, agriculture hasn’t done a very good job of giving consumers a look at what goes into producing food, and it is time that we start telling that story. We can’t rely on the media to get it right, and there is no one that can talk about agriculture better than those directly involved. Don’t forget that even if you are just showing livestock you are still involved in food production. And that is when Crystal Cattle, the blog about a farm girl and everything that comes with it, was born. I try to write posts five days a week at www.crystalcattle.com that allow consumers a glimpse of farm life, give those that want to tell agriculture’s story tools to make it happen, and of course, you can’t leave out Turquoise Thursdays. That brings me to the here, the right now. It has been quite the journey, but not a journey that only I can complete. I am not unique in my successes. Anyone has the opportunity to get from there to here. It will take a goal and a lot of hard work, but ev- Crystal pictured as a baby with mother and father, Deanne & Rob eryone has opportunities, you just Young, and grandfather, Chuck Groeneveld. have to want it, and go get it.

olatility and the Long-Term Investor
Stocks play a major role in most portfolios, but sudden market movements can cause doubts about the wisdom of a long-term commitment to equity investing. It is important, however, to put market volatility in the proper perspective. Sudden declines are hardly uncommon in the stock market, and in fact can be part of a normal market cycle. The risk of short-term loss is one that equity investors simply must be prepared to accept. While diversification and prudent portfolio management may reduce this risk, it cannot be eliminated entirely. As we know from the past several years, a serious bout of market volatility can be alarming, particularly when you’re not expecting it. Amid such uncertainty, it is all the more important to keep your eyes on the market’s true prize: the potential for better-than-average long-term performance. Since the mid1920s, long-term investors in US stocks typically have been rewarded for the risks they have taken—despite the occasional bear markets. There’s no question that staying invested and doing nothing can be hard when the value of your equity portfolio has fallen by 10% or more. This may seem too risky compared to supposedly “safe” investments such as long-term government bonds or money market funds. But successful investors avoid the temptation to adjust their portfolios in response to every short-term dip in the market. Investors should also understand that many widely accepted “facts” about market volatility are actually dead wrong. Here’s a look at a few of these myths and the realities behind them. Myth: Market volatility is getting worse all the time. Owning stocks today is a lot more risky than it was 20 or 30 years ago. Realty: It’s true that the past few years saw an upswing in volatility, as measured by daily price movements. There were 134 days in 2008—at the peak of the financial crisis—when the S&P 500 Index moved up or down by 1% or more. That’s up from 29 days in 2006—just two years earlier. However, this cyclicality is part of a long-term pattern. In any case, sharp daily moves, while unsettling, don’t tell the whole story. Investment analysts typically measure volatility by looking at standard deviation: the degree to which market returns in any given quarter diverge from their long-term trend. By this measure, market risk has not increased appreciably over the past 40 years. During the ten years ending in 2010, which included both the internet bubble and the Great Recession, the standard deviation of returns for large US stocks was 18.7%— only slightly higher than the 17.3% seen in the decade ending in 1990 and 17.4% in the decade ending in 1980.
254 September/October 2011 • theshowcircuit.com
Myth: After the kinds of gains investors saw in the late 1990s or mid-2000s, the law of averages guarantees the next decade will be a bad time to own stocks. Reality: It’s true that market returns in the late 1990s and mid2000s were high by historical standards, but there is no “law” that requires returns to be below average in the future because they’ve been higher than average in the past. Using the S&P 500 Index as a proxy, investors would have earned an annualized return of about 9.9% on large-capitalization stocks from 1926 through 2010—and this despite the market turmoil of the past four years. Whether returns are better or worse in coming years will depend on economic factors such as inflation, interest rates, earnings and global events—not the laws of probability. Myth: When the market starts to rise, smart investors can always jump back in and ride the next leg up. Meanwhile, the safest thing to do is to stay in cash. Reality: Timing the market is something that even many professional investors cannot do consistently. And the costs of being out of the market for even a short time can be enormous. From 1980 to 2010—a period containing more than 7,500 trading days—an investor who missed the 50 biggest “up” days would also have missed approximately 98% of the increase in stock prices during that period, converting an 8.4% annualized return into an annualized gain of only 0.2%. Myth: While stocks have paid higher returns than bonds or treasury bills over the long run, the difference hasn’t been all that great. Reality: Over the past 85 years, returns on stocks have beaten cash and bonds not by a narrow margin, but by huge margins. For an example, an investor who put $1 in large capitalization US stocks at the beginning of 1926 could have seen that dollar grow to almost $3,000 by the end of 2010. By comparison, that same dollar invested in long-term government debt would have grown to just $92, while $1 invested in Treasury bills would have been worth only $20. Myth: Buying near the top of a bull market is an easy way to lose money over the long run. Reality: Historically, investors who put money in the stock market near a short-term peak have done well over the long run—particularly when compared to Treasury bills and other supposedly “safe” investments. An investor who put $10,000 in large capitalization US stocks at the month-end following the tops of the last eight bull markets could have had a portfolio
worth more than $1.7 million by the end of 2010. By comparison, someone who invested the same amounts in Treasury bills at the same times would have had slightly less than $394,000. Myth: Even if long-term returns are higher for stocks, they still aren’t high enough to justify the risk of short term losses. Reality: It’s true that stocks have historically been more volatile than bonds or Treasury bills but stocks have also provided greater rewards than bonds and Treasury bills over the long term. Total returns on the S&P 500 have been positive in 61 of the past 85 years—or approximately 72% of the time. There have only been 11 years in which the market lost more than 10%, and only six years when it lost more than 20%. On the other hand, returns have been greater than 10% in 49 of the past 85 years, and greater than 20% in 32 of those years. Myth: Stocks may have beaten bonds and treasury bills over the long run, but that’s only because the stock market has had a few great years. There have been many periods of time when stocks have underperformed bonds and treasury bills. Reality: In 38 of the past 65 years—or about 58% of the time— the S&P 500 has produced higher returns than Treasury bills or long-term government debt. Over longer periods, the results have been even more lop-sided: from 1945 through 2010, stocks outperformed Treasury bills and long-term government debt in 42 of 61 rolling five-year periods—almost 69% of the time. Over rolling 10-year periods, stocks outperformed more than 80% of the time, and stocks have outperformed Treasury bills and longterm government debt in all but two rolling 20-year periods since 1945. Conclusion Of course, we all know that past performance is no guarantee of future results. There have been lengthy periods—such as the late 1970s—when US stocks delivered relatively poor risk-adjusted performance. Investors may be able to improve long-term results, and reduce volatility, by including fixed income, foreign equities and other asset classes in a diversified portfolio. Still, the moral of the story should be clear: investors who act in haste—fleeing the stock market when the going gets rough— are likely to repent at leisure. The real risk investors face isn’t just the possibility of further market volatility, but also the damage that could result from making sudden or rash changes in their long-term investment strategies—changes they may regret later.

avorite Quotes of the B.S. Month • If you don’t have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over? John Wooden • Champions aren’t made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision. Muhammed Ali • People only do their best at things they truly enjoy. Jack Nicklaus
Favorite Blog PoStS from a Month of B.S. • You Shouldn’t Jump Fences Uphill!... I went over to check on cows today, and it was a good thing. My commercial clean-up bull decided to jump a fence instead of walk 100 yards and go through an open gate. I found this mess while on my 4-wheeler with a thunderstorm and lightning looming to the south. Dad and Mom had a funeral today, so I stopped and asked the neighbor to ride with me in the tractor and spot me, while I try and lift him backwards off the fence. Dad’s tractor didn’t have its scoop on, and that was probably better than if it had. It was raining by the time we got to the bull, and of course he wanted no part of that tractor loader, but eventually figured out he wasn’t gettin’ along that great doing things his way, and allowed me to get under his neck and lift him off. He walked away. Next time probably won’t be so lucky......it’ll be the sale barn’s fence he gets hung up on!
• No Touchy... Shawn was checking out the pool and plants this morning when she saw the “wild” tomcat sitting there intensely cleaning himself. She slowly inched her way close to him until she was right on top of him. She then stuck her finger on top of his head and held it there...... with him having no clue anything was going on. When he figured it out, he looked like the cartoon Road Runner character, with each leg going 100mph screaming away. She laughed and laughed. He felt assaulted and insulted. • Game Face/Nice Face... I wanted to get a couple phone pics of Drake in his 7th grade football gear. He couldn’t go out in elementary due to Sievers disease in his heels, so this is new territory for us. So far, so good. Drake and his sister got in a knock down-drag out fight at home while loading the trailer for the county fair.
I told him that when he steps onto that field, I want him to act just like that! I’ll send his sister to make sure it happens. • What a NICE Young Man....So They Say... I picked up a new customer, not too far from Scott Campbell’s. His name is Devon Olson, and he has Olson Show Cattle. I asked a few people about him before I went there, and all everyone could say was, “What a nice young man.” Unfortunately, that brings out the worst in ME. There’s no way everybody could like this kid, so I set out on my mission to make him mean. I pulled into his family’s place about lunch time. He came over, shook my hand, and said we’ve got lunch for you. Immediately I thought, ”What’s this kid trying to pull!” It was HOT. He had a tent set up with fans as an “on deck” spot, and all the cattle were broke and tied in a really neat vintage barn. Once again, red flags going off everywhere. He seems okay, but I still don’t trust him. As we start videoing, he’s all business. Blowing, fine tune clipping, running around getting ears and dripping wet with sweat, and while doing this, never saying a word. Now that really makes me mad! So on the last calf of the day to video, with my opportunities to ruin this “nice young man” coming to an end, I unleashed on him. The steer we were videoing had some belly and was very full. I said, “Hey, Devon, this one’s got a water bag and feet stickin’ out!” I knew that would send him over the edge…. but it didn’t. He just laughed ... hard! That night, after I’d moved on to Zach Gray’s location, I received a text from Devon thanking me for the work I’d done. I texted him back a thank you and told him that I guess he lived up to the “nice young man” hype ... BARELY. Once again, he thanked me. Good luck with your sale, Devon, and thank you. Your future is bright!
