Vogler Cattle Co.

RB Angus At RB Angus and Show Cattle this year, 100% of the Safe and Sound sired cattle made our sale! Even more incredible was that one of his steers topped our sale at $19,000 with an average of $7,823!

Cowan Cattle Co. We at Wagonhammer Ranch used Safe and Sound. The semen quality was excellent. They calved easy, had lots of vigor, and come fall they were easy to sell. They were big-hipped, big-topped, and exceptional on their feet and legs with lots of hair. He was very consistent and we sold every Safe and Sound sired calf in our pasture sale.

~Myron Benes Wagonhammer Ranch

Clark Cattle Co.

Abney Cattle Co.

It’s a bold statement, but we haven’t had a bull hit here like that since Monopoly! All of Safe and Sound’s calves were really sound, hairy, bighipped, and had good color with no white legs.

He worked on a wide range of females too-purebred Chars, purebred Sim, Crossbreds, and some cows that had never put a calf in the sale! You see so many new bulls come and go but we think this one will be around awhile.

Whole Lot of Things

by Evan Rayl

It is a bit hard to think about making plans to go to the Iowa State Fair’s “Corn Dog Kickoff,” when it is zero outside. If you’ve never been there, you should make plans to go. It is held on a Saturday night in the middle of July at the Varied Industries Building at the fair grounds. This is a cool event in more ways than one. By the middle of July one needs air conditioning and there are so many fun events all evening, one right after another, all included with your entry ticket.

The first thing to do is to get your picture taken with your best friend for the evening or for life. Next start sampling “State Fair Food.” It is available at booths around the inside walls of the building on three sides. Cost is covered by your ticket. My personal favorite is a pork chop on a stick and a root beer float. Personally, I can not think of anything better to eat. Eat two if you want or something else if you prefer.

Then, check out the 200-250 silent auction items you can bid on. The variety is almost unbelievable. If you really want one of the items you’ll need to check back often to see if someone has raised your bid. Next, the live auction starts with Col. Al Conover and a group of bid takers, like Mike Sorenson, publisher of this magazine.

Up for bidding are things like: Meet and greet with the musical stars that appear in front of the Grandstand, a week long vacation in the Colorado mountains in a villa for ten, a ride in a race car over at the

Being a great father is like shaving.

No matter how good you shaved today, you have to do it again tomorrow.

- Reed Markham When an event happens like what occurred in our family recently, Shirley and I want to tell you about it. Our daughter Renae Chesnut was appointed as the Dean of the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences at Drake University in Des Moines. There are 700 students in Drake’s Pharmacy School. In addition, we are also proud of our two sons, Tom, has been a Karting Engine Builder of the Year all six years the award has been given. Steven is an IT person. He keeps the computers working in the Iowa Highway Patrol cars, among other computers used by state offices. In addition, Tom and Jody’s daughter Brooke and her husband, Jeremy presented us with our first great grandchild, Gannon.

When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.
