Sale managers put on their thinking In the cattle marketing arena, dairy caps this year to bring buyer and seller producers who bought Registered Jerseys together. The Cattle Exchange and Arethusa were a bit more generous with their Farm, Litchfield, Conn., compiled a small,
elite group of consignments from the “Veronica” cow family for the Visions of Veronica Sale. The year’s high-averaging sale posted an average of $8,033.33 and a gross of $192,800 on two dozen lots. Another event, the Elite 8 Sale, held in conjunction with the Spring Valley 8th Edition Sale and managed by Wayne and Allen Stiles and Michael Heath, featured a handful of consignments from each of eight prominent North American Jersey breeders. This Total Value $2,205,740 offering of 49 lots was the 8,610 second high-averaging and 2,058,310 fourth high-grossing sale of 1,167,250 541,550 the year, with an average of 349,510 $7,136.73 and gross receipts of 566,905 $349,700. 1,332,000 130,575 During 2010, eight sales 22,075 posted averages in excess of 247,575 $3,000. Four of these—the $6,571,790 Visions of Veronica Sale, the Elite 8 Sale, The All American Jersey Sale and the Pot O’Gold Sale—join the ranks of the 35 highaveraging sales in breed history. Ten sales held in 2010 had gross receipts over a quarter million dollars. Two of these—the Ratliff Proof of Progress Sale and the Grammer Jersey Production Sale— auctioned excess animals from the herd and were made possible because of Jersey reproductive efficiency and excellent herd management, which included heavy use of programs from the American Jersey Cattle Association. The 44 sales included in this summary were held in the United States in the
calendar year 2010 and submitted to the Jersey Journal as of January 20, 2011. Only sales reported with complete catalogs marked with buyers and prices for all animals are included in the auction sale summary. The only Canadian sale (Red Carpet Spectacular Sale) that featured consignments from and purchases by U.S. residents was reported by the Jersey Journal but was not included in the year-end analysis because of the monetary exchange rate differential. Sales with fewer than 10 head are included in the summary, but not ranked among the high-averaging sales. Top Sales of 2010 As mentioned previously, the Visions of Veronica Sale was the high-averaging sale of the year. The exclusive offering of descendents of world-renown Huronia Centurion Veronica 20J was made on July 3 at Arethusa Farm. A daughter of one of “Veronica’s” sons was the high seller of the day at $25,000. South Mountain Voltage Spice-ET was purchased by Ben Sauder of River Valley Farm, Tremont, Ill. The Very Good-89% daughter of Elliotts Golden Voltage-ET, JPI +3, racked up her share of awards on the tanbark trail in 2010. The junior twoyear-old was named Reserve Intermediate Champion of the New York Spring Carousel Show in April, stood first in her class at the Central National Jersey Show for her new owner in October and then earned All American and Junior All American laurels at The All American festivities in November. “Spice” was consigned by Ernest W. Kueffner and Terri L. Packard, Litchfield, Conn., and is tied as the sixth high-selling individual of 2010. The year’s second high-selling open yearling and ninth overall high seller, Arethusa Action Dominique, crossed the auction block at the Visions of Veronica Sale as well and was consigned by sale host, Arethusa Farm. “Dominique” sold for $22,000 to Greg Mortson, Oro-Medonte, Ontario. The summer yearling is sired by Forest Glen Avery Action-ET, GJPI +91, and out of Arethusa Veronicas Dasher-ET, an Excellent-93% daughter of “Veronica” with 18,080 lbs. milk, 1,092 lbs. fat and 699 lbs. protein in her second lactation. “Dominique” topped her class at the New York Spring Carousel and repeated the feat February 2011

Sunset Canyon Dominique-ET became the high-selling bull in breed history when he was syndicated for $100,000 at The All American Jersey Show by Genex/CRI and the Dominican Syndicate. The genetic superstar was consigned by Bruce Roos, Kara Hale and Sunset Canyon Jerseys, Beaver, Ore.
for her new owner at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in November. She also was tapped as Reserve Junior Champion of the Central National Jersey Show and recently named All-Canadian Summer Yearling. The second high-averaging sale and fourth high-grossing sale of the year was the Elite 8 Sale, mentioned previously. The sale, held in Frederick, Md., on March 19, was the source of four of the 15 high-selling individuals of 2010. History books were revised when the high seller of the day, Rapid Bay Gorgeous Giget-ET, was struck off for $35,000 to Colombian Jersey breeder, Foncegan Ltda. of Bogota. She is the highest selling open yearling in breed history, surpassing Elliotts Deluxe Vienna-ET, who sold for $32,500 in the Top of the World Sale in 2004. “Giget” was consigned by Rapid Bay Jersey Farm, Inc., Ormstown, Quebec. Ben Sauder purchased the second high seller, Claessic Fields Vindicat Genie, for $26,500. Like his other high-dollar purchase, the Excellent-91% senior threeyear-old is sired by a “Veronica” son, Vindication, GJPI -25, and earned honors on the tanbark trail in 2010. She placed second in her class at the Central National Jersey Show in Madison, Wis., in October for the junior and then was named Reserve All American Senior Three-Year-Old and Junior All American Senior Three-Year-Old in Louisville, Ky., in November. “Genie” was consigned by Mike Heath, Triple-T Holsteins and WillyMcKay, Cable, Ohio. Arethusa Farm consigned the other two Elite 8 Sale lots ranked among the 15 highselling individuals. Both are daughters of

“Veronica.” Arethusa Action Voice-ET, a summer yearling sired by “Action,” sold for $23,000 to the syndicate of David Johnson, Vincent and Ernest Kueffner and Terri Packard, Boonsboro, Md. “Voice” is the high selling heifer calf of 2010. As sole owner, Johnson, who hails from Chicago, Ill., purchased a first choice female sired by either Lencrest On Time-ET, GJPI +23, Piedmont Prize Socrates, JPI -90, or “Action” for $17,000. His purchase is the high selling choice of the year. The 58th All American Jersey Sale is the third high-averaging sale of 2010 and its high-grossing sale, with a posted average of $7,006.82 and gross receipts of $462,450 on 66 lots. Both the average and gross are second high in series history. The sale was managed by Jersey Marketing Service (JMS). Like the Pot O’Gold Sale, genotyping played a major role in the prices that were paid. Five of the year’s 15 high-selling individuals crossed the auction block in Louisville, Ky., on November 7 and all had been genotyped prior to the sale. One of the genotyped males, Sunset Canyon Dominican-ET, generated another revision to the history books in 2010 when he was syndicated for a recordsetting $100,000 by Genex/CRI and the Dominican Syndicate, Shawano, Wis. “Dominican” is now the highest selling bull in breed history, surpassing the $75,000 (continued to page 20)

South Carolina Bred Heifer Sale Culminates Dairy Experience for Youth
The 36th Annual South Carolina Bred Heifer Sale was held on October 15, 2010. Twelve bred heifers in their second or third trimester crossed the auction block at the state fairgrounds in Columbia, S.C., for an average of $1,200 and a gross of $14,400. Sale Analysis

Sale Management: Clemson University Auctioneer: Lynn Smith
The event is the end of a journey that began 18 months earlier, when a lottery matched a dozen South Carolina youth to the Jersey heifers, which had been donated to the South Carolina Bred Heifer Project by breeders across the state. Over the next year-and-a-half, the juniors cared for the heifers, showed them in the state fair and then consigned them to the sale. All-thewhile, they gained hands-on experience in dairying and partook in some of the fun of the business. Many times, the heifers donated become a part of the family and the juniors
purchase their own project from the sale. Such was the case with the high seller. Joey Floyd, Lynchburg, S.C., outlasted all other bidders to bring home his heifer, BL & Boys Iatola Nuisance, for $1,550. In a twist in the lottery held in the spring of 2009, Joey received the heifer calf that had been donated to the project by his stepfather, Bob Horsey, of B. L. & Boys Jerseys, Lynchburg, S.C. The bred heifer has South Carolina breeding on both sides of her pedigree. She is sired by SC Gold Dust Paramount Iatola-ET, GJPI +69, and sold due to Den-Kel Artist Joule-ET, GJPI +123, in early December. “Nuisance” is out of Will Do Declo Jubi, a daughter of Barbs MBSB Declo, GJPI -5, who was purchased by B. L. & Boys at the South Carolina Bred Heifer Sale in 2003. “Jubi’s” dam is sired by Duncans Prince Malcolm, GJPI -51, and has a three lactation m.e. average of 16,338–667–550. Her grandam has a four lactation m.e. average of 18,104–867– 670. “Jubi’s” third, fourth and fifth dam are appraised Very Good. “Nuisance” freshened with a heifer calf which Joey will likely donate to this year’s South Carolina Bred Heifer Project to pay forward the generosity of the state’s Jersey breeders. The second high seller was purchased by another long-time supporter of the project and the volume buyer of the day,

The program is designed to provide youth who live on small farms, or have access to small acreage, an opportunity to raise dairy heifers. Many youth have established their own dairy farms or begun careers in the dairy industry, thanks, in part, to their experience with the program.

North American Genetics Prevail at Birthplace of Breed
During the Island Spring Show in June 2010, Jersey enthusiasts of the Island of Jersey were able to see the results of the lifted ban on imported bovine genetics. In July of 2008 the States of Jersey repealed the restrictions put in place for importing frozen semen, allowing the nearly 30 dairy producers of the Island to begin using genetic lines from the United States and Canada, among others. In June of 2009 the first calves of North American genetics were born in the home of the Jersey breed. In June of 2010, the calves were of age to compete in the spring dairy show, making them the first ever internationally-sired animals to do so. Page 30

GENETIC IMPROVEMENT
Sires Ranked by Number of Sons Registered, 2010 The 90,336 Jerseys recorded by the American Jersey Cattle Association during 2010 were sired by 3,244 different bulls. Which bulls are used most widely? And, who are the leading sires of sons? A total of 65 bulls sired 10 or more sons registered in 2010. In total, these bulls sired 38% of all Jerseys—male and female—and 61.4% of all males (3,444) recorded during the year. The 40 bulls siring 14 or more sons are listed below. Studying the top 10, 20 or 30 of these bulls is important for two reasons. First, they are largely determining the breed’s production capability in the near future. Second, they are going to continue to exert their influence upon the breed’s genetic merit for production and functional fitness for many years through their registered sons. In 2010, Jersey breeders saw genomics begin to enter into breeding decisions. This list reflects this as eight genomically tested young sires are listed.
averages increased for the dollar traits over 2009 numbers. The 10 bulls average +$386 Cheese Merit Dollars (+103); +$351 for Net Merit dollars and +$325 for Fluid Merit dollars. Other averages are +504M, +37F and +23P; Final Score of +1.4 and a JPI of +133. These bulls sired more than twice as many of the registered sons and daughters (15,058) as the next group of 10 bulls, that had 463 sons registered. This group includes four of the young “G” code bulls. The 10 bulls have the highest milk average at +661M and the lowest SCS at +2.93. Six bulls in the group have PTAMs of over 1,000 lbs. The third group of bulls accounted for 254 registered sons in 2010. The production numbers for the group were the lowest of the top 40 bulls listed. Their reliability scores mirrored the top 10 sires listed and the group includes another of the “G” code young sires. The relative genetic contribution of the 61 proven sires with 10 or more sons to the genetic pool for 2010, is indicated by the weighted average (bottom line of the table). This average is higher than the raw average of their PTAs. The bulls with the highest Predicted Transmitting Abilities are contributing the most to the average genetic merit of sons registered in 2010.

JERSEY JOURNAL
In Memoriam Patricia Endres Patricia Lynn Endres, 47, Lodi, Wis., passed away on Dec. 30, 2010. She was born March 17, 1963, to Milo and Frances Nelson and graduated from Monona Grove High School in l981 and attended the University of Wisconsin and received a degree in dietetics. In 1986, she married David Endres, the current president of National All-Jersey Inc. The two began farming and today their original herd of Holsteins is a 750head Registered Jersey herd. Patty and Dave along with their children, Vincent, Sydney, and Mitchell, traveled to many Jersey events such as AJCA-NAJ Annual Meetings, All American festivities, and various sales throughout the country. Nine years ago Patty received a heart transplant and considered every day a gift and was determined to make every moment the best for her husband and children. Following her surgery she became an advocate for organ donation and walked for the Heart Association and helped raise funds for cancer research. She was very active in farming and her children’s activities. She was a board member for the Professional Dairy Producers of Wisconsin (PDPW), coached soccer, and was active as a 4-H leader. In 1999, she and Dave received the Young Jersey Breeder award from the American Jersey Cattle Association (AJCA). The couple was named Wisconsin Jaycees Outstanding Young Farmer in 2000 and was named National Outstanding Young Farmer in 2001 for the same organization. During her 22-year tenure in the dairy industry, Patty has served as chairperson of the Young Farmer and Women’s Committee for Farm Bureau and Waunakee FFA Alumni founding member and secretary for two years. She was named a finalist in the Alice in Dairyland competition. Patty loved cooking and baking and catering parties. She was known for making any dish a niece or nephew might request and would prepare food for team dinners and the FFA banquets. Survivors include her husband Dave; three children, Vincent, Sydney, and Mitchell; her parents Milo and Frances Nelson; four sisters Pamela (Paul) Anderson, Nancy (John) Quirk, Jeanne (John) Shearer and Karen (David) DeLoof and numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her grandparents Nicholas and Josephine February 2011
Fiore and Otto and Anna Nelson. Memorials in Patty’s name may be made to Jersey Youth Academy at the American Jersey Cattle Association, 6486 E. Main St., Reynoldsburg, OH 43068-2362.

With increased options for recording of animals in the Herd Register of the American Jersey Cattle Association (AJCA) have come more questions about the registration process. Many of these questions center around the registry status codes (HR, OA, PR, GR, J1 and UR) associated with the AJCA’s four recording systems—Herd Register, Genetic Recovery, Jersey Expansion and Identified, but not eligible for the aforementioned programs. Jersey breeders often assume they need to include a registry status code in the animal’s name when they apply for registration. However, the process is automatic, so there is no need to include the code. When an animal is registered, infoJersey automatically assigns the appropriate registry status code as a prefix in the animal’s registration name, based on the parentage information from sire and dam. In this month’s Jersey Jargon, we’ll explain these registry status codes and give you some tips for registering your animals online.
Getting Started To access the registration form, log in to infoJersey at www.infoJersey.com. Under the “Animal Services” tab, select “Animal Registration.” Then click on the “Manual Entry Registration” link in the center of the page. You’ll be directed to a form that looks like the one on this page. Enter information in the appropriate fields and then click the “Continue” button at the bottom of the form to submit the registration.
should be changed in the drop-down menus. If a registry status code or suffix is included in the animal name field, an error message will be displayed and the animal cannot be registered until the text is removed.
Parentage Information The sire’s registration name or number or his stud code number should be entered in the “Sire” field. Leave this field blank if the bull is unregistered, unknown or a breed other than Jersey. Even if he is registered by another breed association, the field should be left open because infoJersey will not recognize registration numbers or names of other breeds. The dam’s breed and country should be determined in the “Dam Breed” and “Dam Country” in the drop-down menus. Jersey is the default breed and the United States is the default country. Her identification can be included in the “Dam ID” field. This can be any name or number that has meaning, such as DHIA control name or number or the registration number from another breed association. This will be used on the pedigree to track lineage, so be sure to include identification that will be useful for herd management and breeding decisions in subsequent generations. What Do the Registry If the dam has been permanently Codes Mean? identified with 840 tags, make sure The Genetic Recovery program this option is selected from the is a step-wise progression to Herd “Dam Country” drop-down menu at Registry (HR) status with the use of HR bulls over three consecutive The prefixes UR, OA, PR and GR and the suffixes Twin, P the bottom of the list.

PERFORMANCE REPORT
High Herds Ranked By GJPI Average The top 25% of U.S. Jersey herds ranked by the average genomic Jersey Performance IndexTM (GJPI) of the cows in the herd are listed below. This list includes qualifying herds with an average GJPI of +27 or greater. This average includes cows with genomic evaluations because (1) they have been genotyped; (2) a genotype has been imputed from the genotypes of progeny, or (3) information from genotypes or imputed genotypes of ancestors increases Reliability even though the cow herself is not genotyped. Cows must also have registry status of HR (no prefix), GR or PR, and must have calved within the past 15 months with no termination code associated with the current lactation. Herds must be enrolled in official AJCA performance programs to be included in the ranking and have at least 10 Registered Jerseys with GJPIs. In the case of ties, the herd ranked higher for Predicted Transmit-
ting Ability Protein (PTAP) is listed first. Any herds that remain tied are then listed in order of herd average for PTA Milk (PTAM). There are 59 herds listed with an average JPI of +55. David Allen, Reedsburg, Wis., has the highest ranking with an average JPI of +105 on 11 genotyped cows. The 33 genotyped cows at Heartland Jerseys, Seneca, Kan., rank second with an average JPI of +100. Taking the third spot in the first genomic herd listing is Wilsonview Dairy, Tillamook, Ore. The herd has 32 genotyped cows with an average GJPI of +96. Following in fourth is another Oregon herd, Forest Glen Jerseys, Dayton. They have an average GJPI of +92 on 18 genotyped milking females. Rounding out the top five is Rowzee Jersey Farm, Newton, Miss. The 13 genotyped cows have a GJPI of +88. There were 3,240 cows in 357 herds summarized in the December 2010 genetic evaluations with an average GJPI of +55. PTA averages for the breed were +219M, +16F, +9P, +167 CM$, +154NM$ and +143 FM$.

Genomic evaluations are calculated from one of three sources of information. The source is identified in the column labeled GT as follows: GT, cow/heifer was genotyped; GI, genotype for cow was imputed from genotypes of progeny, but the cow is not genotyped; and GA, evaluation includes information from genotypes or imputed genotypes of ancestors, but cow/heifer is not genotyped. Genomic evaluations cannot be directly compared to traditionally calculated PTAs.

JERSEY JOURNAL
Top 200 Cows for Jersey Performance Index (Traditional), December 2010 The top 200 cows ranked by traditionally calculated Jersey Premformance IndexTM (JPI) from the December 2010 USDA-AJCA genetic evaluations are listed below. These cows have not been genomically tested and do not have a genomic evaluation (GPTA). These cows must have calved within the past 27 months and have at least one lactation of 100 days or more. Cows lacking linear appraisal information are included in the JPI ranking by using a Parent Average estimate for FTI, provided the cow was under four years of age on December 1, 2010.

EXECUTIVE SECRETARY COMMENTS
President and Director Elections For 2011
O
ur organizations have two tremendous assets. The first is the image of the Jersey cow as a profitable producer that also has the longest productive life in the business today. The second is the reputation our organizations have. As I travel the country, I hear over and over, “Jersey has great programs. Jersey has the best customer s e r v i c e . We r e a l ly e n j oy working with the Jersey association.” Building on these assets is the role of Neal Smith your elected Executive Secretary leadership, the people who serve as Directors and Presidents of the American Jersey Cattle Association and National All-Jersey Inc. Perhaps you, or a person you know, should become a candidate for one of these positions. Governace Structure The American Jersey Cattle Association (AJCA) and National All-Jersey Inc. (NAJ) are each governed by a Board of Directors. The AJCA Board consists of a President and 12 Directors. The responsibilities of the Board include establishing Association policies and programs, setting fees, authorizing expenditures, hiring the Executive Secretary and Treasurer, and being responsible for the overall wellbeing of the Association. The active members of the Association elect the President and Directors. A member is considered active when he or she has registered or had transferred to his or her ownership a Jersey animal within the past two (2) years. The NAJ Board is composed of 11 Directors. Five Directors are elected by the voting members in the District they represent, three Directors are appointed by the AJCA Board, and there are three exofficio Directors. The ex-officio Directors are the AJCA President and chairs of the AJCA Finance and Development committees. The President is elected from the Board by the Directors. The responsibilities of the NAJ Board are Page 76
similar to the AJCA Board.
and NAJ business every year.
Qualifications What are the qualifications to be President or a Director and what are the nomination and election procedures? The AJCA Constitution states, “Each Director including the President shall be an active member of the Association who is actively engaged in ownership or management of a recognizable Jersey herd.” In addition, each Director must be a resident of the District from which elected. The NAJ Constitution states that Directors shall be “members of the American Jersey Cattle Association and who are producer or honorary members of National All-Jersey Inc. . . .” The elected NAJ Directors must reside in the District they represent. In addition to constitutional qualifications, the following are other qualities and considerations for potential President and Director candidates. Leadership. The Presidents and Directors are the elected leaders of the Jersey organizations. Financial Responsibility. The AJCA Board of Directors manages an annual budget of about $3 million. The NAJ Board manages an annual operating budget of approximately $1.2 million and cattle sales of $12 million. Combined net assets of the organizations is $2.5 million. The Boards determine the fees for their respective organizations’ services and how all funds will be used. All programs for the improvement and expansion of the breed depend upon the financial well-being of each organization. The Presidents and Directors should be good business and financial managers.
Responsiveness. The Presidents and Directors must be willing to listen to the concerns of every breeder of Jersey cattle and producer of Jersey milk, then faithfully pass those concerns on to the Boards and management.
Time. The Presidents and Directors soon discover that their responsibilities take more time than they had originally anticipated. The Boards have regular sessions in March, June, and November of each year. The Presidents and Directors will attend state and regional meetings and sales, and represent their organizations at other dairy functions. The Presidents and Directors must be willing to spend much time reading and studying various materials and talking with fellow members and others in the dairy industry in order to make informed and intelligent decisions. They spend weeks—not days—on AJCA
National Perspective. Even though a Director is nominated from a particular area or District of the country, they need to be mindful that actions must be made in the best interests of the entire Jersey membership, not just the interests of their particular District. Professionalism. Not all suggestions the Presidents and Directors hear are in the best interest of the Jersey organizations. The Presidents and Directors must sort through the facts and fallacies in all arguments. They must reach a decision, then be able to defend it. If they disagree with the majority vote of the Board, they must be able to abide by and support the decisions of the majority. Loyalty. The Presidents and Directors are ambassadors for the Jersey breed. They need to present a positive image of the Jersey breed, the owners of Jersey cattle, and the organizations. AJCA Nominations A person meeting the constitutional qualifications can be nominated for either AJCA President or Director. Nominations for President must be made by petition signed by any 30 active members of the Association. Nominations for Director must be made by petition signed by 20 active members residing in the District for which the person seeks to serve as Director. Petitions can be obtained by writing or calling the Executive Secretary. The petitions must be received by the Executive Secretary no later than 65 days in advance of the Annual Meeting. The 2011 Annual Meeting will be held on Friday, June 24. Therefore, nominating petitions for this year’s election for President or Director must be received by the Executive Secretary on or before April 19, 2011. Terms and Voting. The President is elected for a one-year term at each Annual Meeting. There is no limit on the number of terms a President may serve. JERSEY JOURNAL
Four Directors are elected at each Annual Meeting for a term of three years. A Director can serve two consecutive terms. A former Director is then eligible to serve another term one year after completion of two consecutive terms.

Voting for President and Directors is by ballot only. All active members of the AJCA, 50 days prior to the Annual Meeting, are eligible to vote. They receive a ballot by mail. The candidate for each position receiving the plurality of votes is elected. Director Districts. The United States is divided into 12 Districts.

New York Jersey Farm Receives Century Award
Kinland Jersey Farm, Marietta, N.Y., has a rich history in the agricultural business dating back to 1821. Just as the family has built themselves a herd of quality milk cows that can be traced back through generations, the farm has now established itself within the New York State Agricultural Society. In Januar y, the New York State Agricultural Society honored current owner Annette Raus-Kinyon and her family with the “Century Farm” award. The honor is bestowed to families Page 80
dedicated to farming, stewardship, and community involvement in New York, and has been in continuous family ownership and operations for more than 100 years. The family received a proclamation signed by the New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo as well as an exterior farm sign. The award is sponsored by Farm Credit Northeast Ag Enhancement. Annette’s grandmother, Esther Kinyon, began the family’s interest in Jerseys and the dedication to the breed has continued through the generations. Presently the family owns 55 Registered Jersey cows and 167 acres of cropland and woodland.
The cows graze rotationally on fresh grass in the summer, and in the winter months are given corn and hay from the farm. Annette Raus-Kinyon is a member of the American Jersey Cattle Association, Dairy Herd Information Association, Farm Bureau, and is an advisor to the Farm Service Agency County Committee. The environment has always been a family priority, and she was recognized as the Conservation Farmer of the Year by the Onondaga County Soil & Water Conservation District for her efforts in 2003.
