Editorial Comments... Jill Bayers Hotchkiss It’s hard to believe we are to the end of the bull sale season and the end of our publishing season. We’ll Jill Hotchkiss return in August with the September issue. Our run of bull sales is always different, from year to year and sale to sale. There is an incredible number of moving parts that go into marketing registered cattle from the breeder perspective and all the people involved who help and onto the buyer’s side. From the P.R. side of things and working with many of you in terms of advertising, catalogs, promotional items, videos, video sales, social media and more, the goal is still to sell cattle at the highest price possible. Some years, like this one, breeders were just glad to get them moved, due to issues provided by Mother Nature. We seem to have hit it on both ends of the season this year. First it was breeders in the Dakotas who have had one or two years of drought with massive sell-off of cows a year ago. Once the snow started to fall, people’s attitudes improved, which in-turn improved the results of the production sales up North. The huge drought is affecting the southern states and it is now worse there than it was here. We’ve had snow and rain this winter which is a good thing and will help our situation a great deal. At least we will get started with some moisture. Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas are really suffering. As I write this on (continued on page 8)

Journagan Ranch/Missouri State: Where Agriculture Meets the Pavement By B. Lynn Gordon Leo Journagan was a visionary businessman who built a legacy in both construction and cattle, gaining a new perspective of being a steward of the land from each business entity. He pieced together 3,300-acres in south central Missouri, over a 45-year period, consisting of native grassland, pastures, cropland, creeks, ponds, and natural wooded species. Grazing on these picturesque Ozark hills is the 15 th largest Hereford herd in the nation – which became well-known as the Leo Journagan Ranch Agriculture now has a closer connection to the consumer, with the donation of the Leo Journagan (LJR), Mountain Grove, Ranch to Missouri State University.

Journagan... (continued from page 1) sity in the U.S. “Some students apply to be interns throughout the summer, and other students experience the ranch on classroom visits, working on research or special projects,” Lueck says. Summer interns work in synchronization with the day-to-day ranching operations to provide for the most real-life experience. “For many students, this is an eye-opening experience, they have never worked on a ranch of this size or a seedstock operation with responsibilities of this scale.” Students learn about and assist with duties such as calving, breeding, treating, and feeding cattle to building fence. “My role is to teach them about the things you can’t learn in a textbook but need to know about managing beef cattle ̶ the ranch is one great big lab not encrusted within walls.” Gaining first-hand ranch experience is now an integral part of education at MSU impacting students with or without an agricultural background. Plus, the living and breathing diverse laboratory has allowed University research, teaching and Extension to study topics in areas from animal science to biology, forestry, geology, genetics, plant science, soil quality, wildlife management and viticulture. The appeal of gaining a real-life perspective is believed to have resulted in a 10% increase of agricultural student enrollment annually since the donation. Overall enrollment at MSU’s college of agriculture has grown from 300 to 800 students in the last ten years.

LJR/MSU has exhibited the division championship pen of three heifers from 2016-2018. “The students have added a new marketing twist to the ranch,” Lueck says. A ranch facebook page complete with daily updates and videos from events such as the NWSS is one example. “They will post a video and it will have 2,000 hits, it’s amazing and allowed our genetics to

To guarantee the best maternal source, the ranch tracks calving ease, birth weight, ratios, foot, and leg structure is analyzed, progeny weaning ratios are evaluated, and cow weights are collected at weaning time to measure maternal efficiency.

The beef business The educational focus extends beyond the production side of the industry ̶ teaching about the beef value chain from gate to plate. MSU Beef, was developed to highlight the farm to table movement in the food industry. The MSU Beef Program starts with 10 to 20 Journagan Ranch steers sorted off from each of the calving seasons (Spring and Fall). After weaning and 60-day pre-conditioning, the calves are moved to Springfield, placed on grass and supplemented with limited grain. Two or three steers are processed monthly, while others remain on feed. A rotation occurs to accommodate a steer removed from the finish pasture, with a steer moved into the backgrounding group. The steers are on a finishing ration for 90-days and harvested at a local USDA inspected plant during an individual lot harvest, to allow for traceability. From the processing plant, the product is delivered to the campus meat lab, and an additional random sample from each lot is collected and sent for further food safety testing. All meat is dry aged for two weeks, then frozen, with steaks individually packaged and ground beef in clear onepound cubes. Roasts average 2-3 lbs. Pre-made hamburger patties and beef

About the bulls selling: Most natural muscle and thickness ever with good length of body and solid performance data. Bulls will have good dispositions, nearly all will have red scrotums and eye pigment and developed with future usefulness in mind. S R E F I HE About the heifers selling: REGISTERED Heifers selling will be some of the best we have ever offered. Lost some pasture and will be only keeping half of what we normally do. Weather has not allowed us to get pictures. All will be on a video and hopefully have many pictures in our catalog. COMMERCIAL Heifers will be from our commercial herd where only a few females have been added in a hundred years.

Launched right ahead of the bull sale season, great timing, producers were left wondering what the new system meant and how it would affect them. Many commercial people in the area I travel, either didn’t realize what had happened or just didn’t use them or now don’t use them, just use actual weights. I suppose the jury is still out on this one as breeders try to make sense of everything, learn the new system and use the numbers they are getting every week. In the meantime, we all continue with our great breed of Hereford cattle. They don’t know the EPDs changed. Those of us involved in raising Here fords will continue to strive for improvement, one way or another. I want to congratulate my dad and our family on achieving 100-year status for our ranch. By the way, he gets a pass this month on writing. In 1918 my grandparents, Art and Elizabeth Bayers started their Hereford

herd in Lavina, MT. My grandfather had been born and raised on a farm in Iowa, the child of Danish immigrants. They farmed and raised cattle but it turns out Grandpa was a great baseball player and ended up playing college and semi-pro (for the time) baseball in Iowa in the late 1800s, early 1900s. I’m unsure of the story in-between, I think it involved traveling through North Dakota and doing a variety of jobs, but he eventually was hired at the bank in Lavina which was just starting up in 1910. The the condition was he play baseball for them. So in 1910 or 1911 he headed to Lavina for his first adult job and big adventures in Montana. Meanwhile, my grandmother Elizabeth Dwyer, who was born and raised in Illinois, decided to head West at the age of 17 or 18. For reasons unknown other than the promise of free land and transportation on the new railroad system, she and her sister Josephine homesteaded north of Lavina, MT. Later, another sister, Stella, and their father William Dwyer also homesteaded in the same area. William was the son of Irish immigrants. The family farmed and raised cattle and horses in the Henry, IL area and also lived in Momence, IL. Unfortunately I never heard more than one story from my grandmother about the homestead days other than she and her sister used to milk cows for the neighbors in order to make money. I’m sure life wasn’t easy in those homestead days and they worked hard for their land. Grandma also worked in the hotel in Lavina. Meanwhile Art was working in the brand new bank, playing baseball and also filed on a homestead. He was also the Land Man at the bank and administered accounts for people filing on homesteads. Art and Elizabeth married on Christmas Day, 1912, and ranched near Lavina. They had a few Shorthorns and Herefords and horses in the early days. In 1918 they started their registered Hereford herd and never looked back. They had 6 children including my dad: Helen, Beatrice, Bertha, Jeanne, Wanda and Byron.
They homesteaded there and over the course of some 10 or 15 years in the Lavina area were involved in several businesses including the local bank and selling cars but both of them had roots in agriculture and ended up loving Hereford cattle. It’s been fun looking through old photos, connecting with my cousins,
talking to dad about it and looking at old Hereford record books and stories. It’s a lovely, rich history carried forward by dad and other family members who shared that devotion to Herefords and ranching. Thanks for the wonderful legacy. — JBH

Final Farewell Humberto “Bert” Reyes
Texas cattleman, auctioneer, and father, died on February 13, 2018 at age 89. Bert was the middle of 14 children born to Carlos Reyes B. of Durango, Mexico and Maria Villarreal of Goliad, TX. He was raised on a farm outside Berclair, TX. He attended a two-room, segregated Mexican-only school until he went to Goliad High School, where he graduated in 1946. Bert raised Here ford calves since he was 9 and was chosen as one of 14 outstanding 4H members in Mexico and Texas. With his brother Carlos, who returned from serving in WWII, he enrolled at Texas A&M, where his grades, 4H work, and support from his community earned him one of the first Jesse Jones opportunity scholarships. At A&M, Bert followed in the footsteps of his older brothers and found a home in the animal science department. He was a member of the A&M livestock and meat-judging teams and was awarded the showman-of-the-year prize as a senior. Bert joined the Army upon graduation, and served as a first lieutenant in the infantry during the Korean war, distinguishing himself during the horrific fighting at Heartbreak Ridge. He was awarded a combat infantry badge, 3 bronze service stars, and a UN service medal. After Korea, Bert returned to A&M, where he earned a Master’s Degree in Animal Science. Upon graduation, A&M asked him to join a team of professors and technicians to work on a two-year project in a sister school in Saltillo, Mexico. As the only Spanish speaker of the group, Bert learned a lot outside of his discipline and developed relationships with ranchers throughout Northern Mexico. When he returned to Texas, Bert was hired by the Hereford Association as a special representative to move cattle from drought-stricken areas of Texas into Mexico. That work allowed him to travel throughout Texas and Mexico, meeting more ranchers and learning about their herds and needs. By 1958, Bert had opened his own business, Carlos B. and Sons, with the help of his father, then a bookkeeper in Beeville. At first, Bert specialized in exporting cattle, private treaty, and sales management. But after a week of auctioneering school and hundreds of hours of practice while driving the Texas highways, Bert became one of America’s most prominent cattle auctioneers and changed the business in Texas. Bert became the first sales manager-auctioneer, a job that had customarily been done by two people. He also refused to specialize in any particular breed of cattle, as most did at the time. Bert innovated cattle auctions by moving sales from weekdays to weekends, in order to allow urban cattle investors to attend and drive up sale prices. As the only Spanish bilingual auctioneer
HEREFORD AMERICA • April/May 2018
in North America, he pulled new clients into Texas sales. Bert moved his business to San Antonio and lived at the St. Anthony Hotel for a decade before he married Jane Maverick Welsh. In the mid-sixties, his younger brother Ruben began working for him and they eventually partnered in creating Reyes and Reyes. During his career, Bert build the country’s largest cattle-auctioneering firm selling more than $30 million in pure blooded cattle annually. He called many historic auctions, breaking national sales records for many breeds including Beefmaster, Simmental, and Brangus. He broke million-dollar-sales records at the National Simmental Sale in 1974 and twomillion-dollar national sales record for all breeds in 1979 at the Herring Ranch Beefmaster dispersal sale. Bert also negotiated the importation of the first pure blooded Simmental bull, Amor, into the United States. He and six other investors worked for two years to purchase Amor in 1970. Bert sold cattle in 28 states and in many parts of Latin America. He was honored to have been consulted by President Johnson while he alive and was asked by Lady Bird to manage dispersal sale of LBJ’s cattle upon the former president’s death. Bert never needed a hobby. He loved his work and the cattle business -- it pleases us to know he attended the SA stock show on the day he died. Bert was the oldest tenant and last remaining cattleman at the San Antonio Stock Yards building. He was a teller of tales, able to remember first hand longhorn cattle drives through the streets of Berclair during the 1930s and the heyday of San Antonio’s cattle business. For the past year, Bert has been working with the Texas A&M San Antonio Library archiving his cattle-business records, logging thousands of photographs, and providing an oral history for researchers. While proud of his own accomplishments, Bert realized they were built upon his parents’ love and their investment in his education and the education of his siblings. He was incredibly proud of the accomplishments of his six sisters, all teachers in the public school system, and his seven brothers who entered the business community. He honored the sacrifice of his mother and the work his father did to integrate schools in their community. Bert is survived by his daughter Carmelita Reyes; son-in-law Jeffrey Johns; grandsons Carlos and Mateo Johns; sister Estella Naranjo; brother Mike Reyes (Elida), brother-in-law Dr. Victor Rodriguez; and loving companion for many years Sharon Buchta. He was preceded in death by his parents Carlos and Maria Reyes; sisters Rachel, Tillie, Christina, Florinda, and Martha; brothers Lucas, Alvino, Tony, Carlos Jr., Pete, and Ruben; ex-wife Jane Maverick Welsh; and dear friend Mary Annah Hoey-Alemán.

Edward Charles Hawks
By the age of four, Ed Hawks knew that he was born to be a cattleman. He fulfilled his childhood dream until he passed away on Sunday, February 25, 2018, of natural causes on the ranch that he loved. Edward Charles Hawks was born July 19, 1953, in Sturgis, SD, to Charles and Mildred Hawks. He attended first through eighth grades at Plainview School and attended and graduated from Sturgis Brown High School in 1971. In the fall of 1971, he enlisted in the US Air Force and Ed Hawks served most of his career in Seoul, Korea. He received an honorable discharge in the fall of 1974, and returned to the family ranch. He spent the ensuing years passionately improving his registered Hereford breed. Ed waited patiently to find the perfect wife for him. While attending his 20 year class reunion, Ed found her in his high school classmate, Gloria LeLaCheur. In August of 1992, Ed and Gloria were united in marriage at the Presbyterian Church in Sturgis and Ed helped Gloria raise her two children, Cyndi and Bryan, as his own. Gloria changed Ed’s life by introducing him to golf, bowling, white water rafting (which he still did in blue jeans), parasailing, and lots of other travel and crazy adventures. She showed Ed that there was another world beyond the ranch. Ed changed Gloria’s life by sharing his faith with her and her children. He was an active member in the Church of Christ. Ed carried on his father’s fudge making tradition and rewarded his bull buyers with a tin of fudge. Ed’s fudge was a staple at the community potlucks and he was proud that his son, Bryan, is carrying on the family tradition. Ed never complained and was always optimistic. Ed loved spending time with friends and family and especially loved his role as Papa Eddie to his two grandchildren. He recently taught his granddaughter to play Cribbage and he never got tired of spending time around the kitchen table playing cards. Ed recently discovered Facebook and would spend hours “friending” people he knew, and people he didn’t. Ed is survived by his wife, Gloria; his children, Cyndi (Matt Nelson), Sergeant Bluff, IA, and their children, Makenna and Parker, and Bryan Braley (Kyle Martinek), Omaha, NE. He is also survived by his brother, Gary (Connie), Tyndall, SD; sisters, Sue (Curtis Jones), Piedmont, SD, and Karen (Al Shade), Davis, SD; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Mildred Hawks.

Jane is survived by her husband Norman, and daughters Susan Durham (Richard Mueller), Janet Gaskins (Bradley), Diane Durham and Linda Bender (David). Her legacy continues with her five grandchildren: Jonathan (Rick) Miller, Melissa Miller, Joshua Miller, Breawna Bender, and Sarah Mueller, and one great-grandson Blake Scott. She is also survived by her sister, Helen Stovall Alexander of Glenside, PA, and her niece Jessica Alexander Koenen of Portland, OR. In honor of Jane’s life the family requests memorial contributions be made to the First Presbyterian Church Second Mile Sewing group, the Oklahoma Hereford Association, the OSU Department of Animal Science, or to the charity of your choice. She was AWESOME! Condolences may be sent to the family and an online obituary viewed by visiting www.strodefh.com

The Best Hereford Beef Can Now Be Found Local
Each week, we buy corn fed finished cattle primarily in this region. However, we reach beyond the strike zone to find the best Herefords wherever they might be fed in the Midwest. Even after we’ve concluded our normal weekly trade, we are never too full for Herefords and Baldies. We are always in the market to buy finished Herefords and we offer a $25 premium per head for Hereford program qualifiers. If you’d like your finished calves in our Hereford program, we can introduce you to partner feed yards who custom feed or who buy Hereford and Baldie calves. Whether you want to market your feeder calves or retain ownership, let us help you direct your load lot Hereford influenced feeder cattle into our primary trade area.
