John Ficken, David LeRoy and Craig Rucker Dear Friends, Welcome to the Mid-Kansas Angus Breeders 21st annual production sale. We have a great offering of bulls to sell on March 16th, and we invite you to come early, look them over, and join us for lunch. Our breeding programs all have the same goals: fertility, calving ease, above average growth, good carcass values, strong maternal traits, good disposition, and moderate cow size. The bulls will be penned at the LaCrosse sale barn by 10:00 sale day as usual. We will be having a video auction again, so come early if you want to look at the bulls. If you are unable to attend the sale you can bid online at wwwdvauctions.com. It works best to go online and register two days or more before the sale if you plan to do this. There will be updates to the catalog available on sale day. If you need any more information or want to see the bulls before the sale, feel welcome to stop by or call anytime. Once again, we want to thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you on March 16th. Mid-Kansas Angus Breeders

Baldridge Yardstick Y20 sired the co-high selling bulls in the 2015 sale and the high selling sire group. He sires good feet and legs, and his daughters are moderate in size with good udders. This tremendous sire is in the top 1% of the breed for Calving Ease Direct and Birth Weight, the top 5% for Docility, Marbling and Rib Eye, and the top 30% for heifer pregancy and $Beef. Owned by Ficken Angus Farms, LeRoy Angus, and Judson and Denise Baldridge.
$EN
PATHFINDER PROGRAM: A Search for Superior Cows The Pathfinder Angus program was started in 1978 in an effort to identify superior cows in the breed based on their records of performance from Angus Herd Improvement Records (AHIR). To become a Pathfinder (indicated by a # in front of her name in the pedigree -- shown in this catalog as a # behind her name in the pedigree), a cow must calve her first time near the herd’s average for first calving and yearly after that. She must wean at least three calves with an average weaning ratio of 105 or above. To be a Pathfinder sire, a bull must have five or more Pathfinder daughters.

Expected Progeny Differences EPDs are a prediction of how future progeny of a sire or dam are expected to perform in each of the traits listed. EPDs are expressed in pounds for growth traits and milk production. Each animal is compared to every other animal in the herdbook. You might expect that the average EPD would be 0, but that is not the case. Here are the current average EPDs for non-parent bulls. CED +6

™ PREMIUM PRICES SEND CLEAR SIGNALS Profit Tip
Meat buyers pay a premium for Certified Angus Beef ® (CAB) brand and USDA Choice over Select grade. The extra dollars at the wholesale level build strong demand for high-quality cattle and translate into significant grid premiums. For the CAB component alone, licensed packers have paid producers half a billion dollars in grid premiums since 1998. Producers of high-quality Angus cattle can capture their share, by retaining ownership through the finishing phase and marketing on a quality-based grid.
At wholesale, an average 840-lb. CAB® carcass would yield beef worth $159.57 above Select grade. That’s compared to $78.13 for a Choice vs. Select animal.
The Facts:
$60.00
• The Choice-Select spread is a demand indicator for highquality beef. When you take that one step further and look at the additional premiums paid for higher quality boxed beef, like CAB, there is a clear demand calling for more cattle that can hit premium targets.

CAB ®/Choice Spread
• Meat reporting authority Urner Barry quotes a CAB cutout in its weekly Yellow Sheet. It began tracking wholesale CAB prices more than a decade ago, when buyers asked for a dependable gauge more specific than the USDA Branded Programs quote. • Boxed beef price is the estimated wholesale value of the entire carcass, combining subprimal values into one price.
2012-2014
• Even when the Choice-Select spread narrows, the CABChoice spread generally remains strong. $160
$159.57

• At wholesale, an average 840-lb. CAB® carcass would yield beef worth $159.57 above Select grade. That’s compared to $78.13 for a Choice vs. Select animal.
$120 $100 $80
• From January 2012 through December 2014, the average CAB premium over Select was $19.00/cwt., with a high of more that twice that amount.
