s I write this, I have spent the day hauling water. Not in water trouble, with thirsty cattle standing there bawling for a drink, but just trying to stay ahead. We had a great start here in our country but the last 30 or 40 days have been hot and dry.

I know many of you are in a position of not having had that first rain. I pray better days are ahead for us all. I would like to encourage you with a saying from my friend Chris Beard, the new men’s basketball coach at Texas Tech: ”Tough times pass, tough people last.” We have all been in this spot before, and we are still here. Hang tough – better days are ahead.

We have been granted a bit of relief with the jumping mouse situation. Fences are moving and folks are communicating at the ground level and do their best to work together. A big thanks to Congressman Steve Pearce, Governor Susana Martinez, New Mexico Director/Secretary of Agriculture Jeff Witte, New Mexico State Engineer Tom Blaine, the U.S. Forest Service leadership in Region VI and several others who have been so diligent and persistent in seeking relief for our beleaguered members and neighbors in Otero Country. We will continue to watch and listen.

The news is not so good on the agricultural exemption for workers compensation insurance in New Mexico. The state Supreme Court has ruled as we had feared but expected. For the short term, you need to start working with your insurance agent to get coverage. Unfortunately, all the questions we have had for the past year remain. The New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association and other groups are working to get some clarity and other options. We will keep you posted. Watch the website at www.nmagriculture.org , your email and Facebook for updates. By the way, have you checked out the website lately?

We launched a new site in mid June and we are getting a tremendous number of views.

We also have moved the advertising sales on the site in-house. If you have questions on the advertising, please call the office at 505/247-0584.

We had a good ag group meeting early in July in Ruidoso. We discussed the coming election and the candidates. New Mexico is an interesting situation because every legislator is up for re-election. With the presidential election being so highly controversial, not to mention the usual raucous goings-on here, this election may prove to be one of the most important elections in history. We need to all turn out to vote, and encourage our friends and families to, also. Our vote is always important.

Another thing that is important is your membership in the New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association. You can see from just this letter the variety of issues we are working on. It takes the support from every cattleman in the state and elsewhere to make a difference and to have people in the right places to make a difference. Please let me know if you need a membership application or have questions.

TO THE POINT

by Caren Cowan, Executive Director, New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association

O

n June 30 the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled that the state’s workers’ compensation exemption for agriculture is unconstitutional. This was not unexpected, but it is certainly a huge blow to the financial well-being and the future of ranch families as well as to the job market in the state.

The short-term advice is to contact your insurance agent immediately to start working on coverage. Unless there is some success in the Court in mid-July, the mandate for insurance will come down as early as July 15. The Workers’ Compensation Administration (WCA) has stated publicly that they will begin enforcement immediately upon receiving the mandate.

Unfortunately at this writing the confusion we have been dealing with for nearly a year continues to reign. The New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association (NMCGA), the

Workers Comp

Dairy Producers of New Mexico, Dairy Farmers of America and the New Mexico Farm & Livestock Bureau are all working with the WCA to achieve some clarity.

Another concern that has come to light over the past several months is the cancellation of workers’ comp insurance by those ranchers and farmers who elected to get coverage well before the Court made its decision. Those folks are finding that a single claim can result in the cancellation of an existing policy.

When those folks ask what they are supposed to do for coverage they are directed to the “pool” with New Mexico Mutual where they are charged what seem to be unaffordable rates? Questions are being asked on this front too.

NMCGA leadership is looking into the possibility of a self-insured fund as well as training seminars in an effort to bring and

Animal Conflict on the Rise For several weeks this summer I have been collecting notes about the amount of conflict that people seem to be having with wildlife. As the summer has unfolded, the conflicts between humans and humans have taken the forefront of the media with numerous senseless killings around the country.

This is a sad state of affairs for our country and I am glad my grandparents aren’t around to see this.

It seems that everyone has a solution, but no one wants to put the work in the solution. Let’s just blame someone or something and keep heading down the same dangerous path. One can only hope that at some point people from all sides will climb down off their high-horses and do the real soul-searching and work that needs to be done to regain civility.

With that said, the animal issues remain important. Honestly it may play into our societal problem. If we cannot make continued on page 16 >>

prudent decisions when it comes to animals, how are we ever going to apply ourselves to mankind?

The first blunder of utter stupidity was the urbanite in Yellowstone National Park who gathered up a buffalo calf in the back of his SUV and hauled it to authorities. It is pretty amazing to me that the buffalo cow let this happen. The guy is darned lucky that he lived to tell about it and doesn’t have a smashed vehicle.

The second, pretty much the dumbest thing I ever heard, is that the National Park Service ended up destroying the calf.

Haven’t they ever heard of bottle feeding???

Wouldn’t it be great to have a pet buffalo on the park for the urbanites to be able to be around?

I guess it boils down to who is going to do the work. Animal care on that level certainly doesn’t happen between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.

The third part is just utter stupidity. The guy who picked up the calf said he would do it again if necessary. Doesn’t he care that his uneducated actions caused the death of the calf. I hope that the next time he tries it; the cow will be there to weigh in on the

Thus far pleas for wolf removal have fallen on deaf ears and there are no funds to recoup the losses that are being suffered.

Ya think?

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has noticed that suicide rates have jumped by 21 percent over the past 12 years. They decided to conduct a study on the issue.

They found that suicide rates were highest among workers who were isolated or “precariously employed” — farming (and ranching I would guess), fishing and forestry. The report stated: “Analysis… indicated that workers in the farming, fishing and forestry occupational group had the highest rate of suicide (84.5 per 100,000), followed by workers in construction and extraction (53.3), and installation, maintenance and repair (47.9).”

Additional findings were that men in fishing, farming, forestry — also accounted for the highest rate of suicide at 90.5 per continued on page 20 >>

olando Flores, professor and head of Food Science and Technology and director of the Food Processing Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, has been selected as dean of New Mexico State University’s College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences.

“Dr. Flores is internationally recognized for his work in food science technology, agricultural engineering and grain science,” said NMSU Provost Dan Howard. “Moreover, he has been involved in many international initiatives and has a strong record of accomplishment as an administrator at a land-grant university. We look forward to

his arrival at NMSU.” Interim Dean Jim Libbin has led the college over the past year and Howard acknowledged his positive impact on the college and the university.

“I am grateful to Dr. Jim Libbin for his good work as interim dean, which will continue until Dr. Flores takes over in August,” Howard said. “Dr. Libbin has been a great asset to the university and we look forward to his continued contributions to NMSU.” Flores will join the college on Aug. 1.

“I’m very honored and humbled at the same time,” Flores said of his selection. “It’s a dream come true.”

Flores said the prestige of the college attracted him to the position and he is looking forward to having an integral role in the college’s success.

Joining NMSU will follow a pattern for Flores, who has worked at several landgrant institutions during his career, including Kansas State University, Iowa State University and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

“I’m a true believer in the land-grant system,” he said. “Although it’s 154 years old, it ’s vibrant, a model that ’s been re-engineered.”

He pointed to NMSU’s location along the

border with Mexico, its structure, the challenges it is working to solve and the diversity of its people as factors that appeal to him.

Originally from Costa Rica, Flores brings a lengthy record of university and federal agency experience.

From 2006 to the present, Flores has been a professor and head of the Department of Food Science and Technology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. In addition, he serves as director of the Food Processing Center, a 32-year-old unique outreach program in support of the value-added food and agricultural programs in Nebraska and the nation.

From 2001-2006, Flores worked first as a research food technologist and later as a research agricultural engineer for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service’s Eastern Regional Research Center in Wyndmoor, PA. Flores served as an associate professor in the Department of Grain Science and Industry at Kansas State University from 1996-2001, where he also held the G.M. Ross Professorship.

From 1993-1996, he was an associate

professor and bioprocess engineer in the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering and the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition at Iowa State University.

From 1990-1993, Flores was an assistant professor and food engineering extension specialist in the Cooperative Extension Service’s Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering at Kansas State University. He also was an assistant professor at Kansas State from 1989-1990 in the Food and Feed Grains Institute.

From 1975 to 1986, Flores held various positions at the National Production Bureau in San Jose, Costa Rica, including director of the Administrative Division.

Flores earned a Ph.D. from Kansas State University in grain science in 1989. He has a master’s degree in agricultural engineering from Iowa State University (1981) and a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Universidad de Costa Rica (1974).

Flores was the first person in his family to attend college and is a strong supporter of the tremendous advantage of higher education.

The award-winning academic is the recipient of accolades such as the USDAARS 2010 Technology Transfer Award and

the 2008 American Association of Cereal Chemists International Stanley Watson Award from the Engineering and Processing Division.

When Flores starts as dean on August 1, 2016, he plans to learn as much as he can about the college, focusing especially on its uniqueness and potential.

“We need to exploit our uniqueness to attract students, and strengthen our research and extension programs,” he said.

He sees challenges facing the nation as globalization; the need for adequate food and water; the need for new and better foods for human nutrition; the need for new forms of energy; full utilization of human capabilities; improvement of ecosystems; and understanding that business as usual “actually means moving backward.”

Flores said he will be committed to being accessible and available as dean and said he looks forward to working together with the college’s staff and faculty in their strong commitment to the people of NM. Flores and his wife, Sandra, have two adult daughters, Ana Catalina and Andrea, and two grandsons.

out of season if they were disrupting things.

They were. The bear, says Turner, was “all bowed up like a bull in a field.” Turner knew he would have been in trouble had he not shot because the grizzly had been pawing the ground, and “looking for a fight all summer long” once he began chasing Turner’s two dogs, Red Dog and Lucy, a Border Collie and an Australian Shepherd mix respectively. When the dogs were not being harassed by the grizzly, they had plenty of time to learn tricks to relieve boredom, including counting up to five.

They were also smart enough to stay away from the bear.

The venture has not been all fun and it is not cheap. Flying in heavy equipment for the initial start-up on a C120 Hercules cost $50,000 alone. Air fare is another $2000 per person each time from either Tucson or Phoenix to Anchorage and then to the nearest town of Kotzebue and then to the final landing strip just outside the cabin door. Dogs at $100 for veterinary clearance and another $100 fare are extra but a necessity. The canines dread the cage for their long flight but welcome Turner once

reunited with him in Alaska. Turner makes two trips per season; first to bring in supplies over the ice when it is still thick enough to support his four-wheeler, fuel and food, and another to begin the work itself. His Satellite telephone is another $500 a month, but he uses it to call Julie daily to let her know how things are going.

Gasoline for the machinery is $20 a gallon.

The ing and mining—the length of his work deed to some 100,000 acres went over on week. At the claim he puts in eighteen

hours every day, ten in mining and the rest in prepping machinery, panning to determine the correct levels of gold (otherwise he is wasting his time), and in otherwise getting ready for the real work—not all that different from back home in Grant County.

Actual mining is only part of his day.

With the track hoe, he can process sixty yards of material an hour, dumping gravel and other alluvial material over a grizzly bar (a grate of parallel bars that permit materials to pass down a sluice). What gold eventually comes through is due to gravity, vibration, and water flow. One day once earned him a $25,000 payday, considerably more than for the same time at the ranch.

The biggest nugget was about three ounces, about the size of a match head. There is always a market in Silver City and Tucson for what he brings home. Prospective buyers call as soon as they know he is back in New Mexico.

Longtime friend Joe Runyon, who won the grueling Iditarod 1,000 mile sled dog race from Anchorage to Nome in 1989, has also sparked Turner’s interest. Now no longer a musher, Runyon breeds English pointers in Cliff, New Mexico, where Turner went to high school with Julie, and the two get together from time to time. Turner’s

New Blood Test for the Detection of Bovine TB

A

new blood test to detect Mycobacteria in blood has been developed by a team at The University of Nottingham led by Dr. Cath Rees, an expert in microbiology in the School of Biosciences and Dr Ben Swift from the School of Veterinary Medicine and Science.

The researchers have used this new method to show that cattle diagnosed with bovine tuberculosis (bTB) have detectable levels of the bacterium Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) in their blood which causes this disease.

‘Evidence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex bacteraemia in intradermal skin test positive cattle detected using phageRPA’ has been published online in the peer reviewed medical journal Virulence.

Dr. Rees said: “This test delivers results within 48 hours and the frequency in which viable mycobacteria were detected in the blood of skin test positive animals changes the paradigm of this disease.”

This new, simple and inexpensive blood test detects very low levels of mycobacteria in blood using a bacteriophage-based technique developed by The University of Nottingham. The group has patented an improved version of the method that delivers results in just six hours. More recently ‘proof of principal’ experiments have shown that this is even more sensitive. This is currently licenced to a spin out company, PBD Biotech Ltd. Bovine TB is a zoonotic infectious disease caused by M. bovis. The UK has struggled to eradicate bTB and control measures continue to be a significant economic burden on the agricultural industry.

Routine testing for Bovine TB uses the Single Intradermal Comparative Cervical Tuberculin (SICCT) skin test for M. bovis infection and all healthy cattle are regularly tested this way. However, it is known that this test is only 90 percent sensitive at best and misses many infected animals.

Dr. Cath Rees said: “The data we are getting has taken the scientific community by surprise. In our paper we show that when blood samples from skin test negative cattle were tested for M. bovis cells, all the samples proved negative. However using just a 2ml blood sample, viable Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex bacteria (MTC) were detected in 66 per cent of samples from skin test positive animals.

When the carcasses were inspected, it was found that the highest number of bacteria were detected in the animals with visible TB lesions (VL) and 85 per cent of these VL animals were M. bovis positive.

“More excitingly, using our new more sensitive six-hour method, this figure is even higher – all animals with visible lesions were MTC positive, and even 26 out of 28 animals where the lesions were not yet visible also were positive suggesting that M. bovis is commonly found in the circulating blood of infected animals.”

Difficulties in detecting, growing cultures and achieving sensitive detection using the current skin test, which looks for the animal’s an immune response, are a major barrier to understanding and diagnosing bTB infection. Early results indicate that M. bovis can be detected before the animal becomes SCCIT-positive.

Dr. Rees said: “Using our bacteriophage-based test the hope is that we can help improve herd control by finding animals at the early stages of infection and helping farmers control outbreaks of bTB more rapidly.”

Working with the United States Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, National Animal Disease Center, the Nottingham group has set up the first animal trial using the blood test to detect M. bovis in the blood of experimentally infected animals to determine exactly how soon this test can detect infection.

Dr. Rees said: “The test also offers the potential for new, better tests for other farm animals. We are directly detecting the bacteria and so the method will work using blood samples from any animal species – so far we have detected mycobacteria in the blood of cattle, sheep and horses, but it could also be used for deer, goats or llamas.

“Not only that, we can detect any type of mycobacteria, we have use the same method to detect other diseases, such as Johne’s disease, not just bTB.” The paper is available via www.tandfonline.com/doi/ full/10.1080/21505594.2016.1191729#.V0224jUrK70 Alternatively it can be supplied on request.

Grizzly Interbreeding May Spell Doom for Polar Bear

by Adam Popescu, Special to The Washington Post

M

ost Alaskans and Canadians have a bear story — tales of fearsome grizzlies, even polar bears. But a mix of the two?

They’re known as pizzlies or grolars, and they’re a fusion of the Arctic white bear and their brown cousins. It’s a blend that’s been turning up more and more in parts of Alaska and Western Canada.

Bears sharing both species’ DNA have

been recorded several times over the past tists have found the mix in the islands off decade. So why are these two species Southeast Alaska, where bears resemble linking up? grizzlies but contain polar bear DNA.

construct, an anthropomorphized take on nature. And what may be most surprising about this, researchers say, is the role interbreeding plays in the futures of endangered species — or, as the case may be with polar bears, accelerating their end.

Amstrup has studied bears in the Arctic since the 1970s and was instrumental in helping list the polar bear as a threatened species in 2008. He, like other experts, characterizes this “new” bear relationship as more beneficial to grizzlies than polar bears.

That’s because there are more grizzlies than polar bears and because grizzly territory is expanding while polar bear territory is contracting. What that adds up to is a good chance grizzlies could essentially dilute the polar bear population until it doesn’t exist at all, they say.

Polar bears are getting the short end of eat polar bears up, genetically,” he told me. the stick in this relationship, not “gaining And he says the changes are already at play. any genetic diversity,” said Geoff York, who All hybrids that have been analyzed had led research on polar bears at the World grizzly fathers, because grizzly males roam to establish terriWildlife Fund for tory and come in almost a decade contact with recepbefore joining Amstrup at PBI. tive female polar What we’re starting to Andrew Derbears.

ventured north of the treeline. Permafrost is too cold for their liking, and they sink into the snow easily. (Polar bears have padded paws that act as snowshoes). Hunting is more challenging in the north, where prey is scarce. They’re not really swimmers.

But shifts are afoot.

“What we’re starting to see in the Canadian Arctic is three-fourth grizzlies,” Derocher said, referring to the offspring of 50-50 hybrids that then mated with grizzlies. “How do they act? Probably more like grizzly bears, living on land. As climate change continues, terrestrial habitat is going to increase, and the likelihood is the habitat for grizzlies, a terrestrial bear, is going to get better. That means a longer warming period and greater food potential.”

Derocher said it will not be long before we start seeing female grizzlies bump into male polar bears, further straining the polar bear’s genetic variation. “I suspect at the same time that that’s occurring, we’ll start to see polar bears on their way out.”

When will that be? Impossible to say, but some experts think that as the Arctic continues warming, it may be only a few decades, perhaps a century. There are about 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears in the Circumpolar Arctic, and “an order of magnitude higher for grizzlies in that area” and other brown bears, Derocher said. “It shouldn’t be a big surprise that grizzlies are moving north — everything is.”

Right now, polar bears are also threatened by polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs, and other toxic pollution — primarily from

eating seals and other animals affected by these carcinogens — that has been linked to brain damage, even causing some bears’ baculums, or penis bones, to break off.

And those outcomes could affect polar-grizzly hybrids as badly as pure breeds. No matter what bear ends up as the Arctic’s future apex predator, scientists say, if the issues up north aren’t solved, it won’t matter what bears are there.

Hybrids are “a normal part of the evolutionary process,” Derocher said. But if the ice disappears, “we won’t have grizzlies or polar bears in this area. If you roll the clock ahead another number of decades or a century, quite clearly it’s going to be no bears eventually.”

lltech, through Hubbard Feeds, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ridley USA Inc., has acquired Ranch-Way Feeds, a leading animal nutrition company that has done business in the Western United States for more than 60 years.

Ranch-Way Feeds employs more than 50 people, producing over 50,000 tons of feed annually. The company markets its animal nutrition products and programs through an extensive dealer network in the Rocky Mountain region. The acquisition includes The Feed Bin, Ranch-Way Feeds’ retail store in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Ranch-Way Feeds’ sales, marketing and technical teams will merge with Hubbard’s operations to create a strong on-farm support network for dealers and Western region livestock producers. This support includes the delivery of superior animal nutrition backed by scientific research and tailored feeding programs supported by the expertise and experience of the technical and sales teams. Because of its long history and trusted name recognition, Hubbard Feeds plans to continue to market and sell the Ranch-Way brand at this time.

“Hubbard Feeds and Ranch-Way Feeds represent a dynamic team of like-minded, science-driven and ag-passionate people,” said Kevin Levi, president of Ridley U.S. Feeds Operations. “We are confident that Western U.S. livestock producers will benefit from increased nutritional offerings, expanded sales and technical support, and access to cutting-edge technologies through the combined resources of RanchWay Feeds, Hubbard, Ridley and Alltech.

This acquisition is driven by our shared motivation to strengthen our support of Western livestock producers.”

Terms of the purchase were not disclosed.

he sound of wolves howling is a common one at the Wildlife Science Center in Columbus.

But that haunting sound has been eclipsed lately by the sounds of whimpering puppies.

The 5-week-old pups are helping answer questions in captivity that cannot be answered in the wild The center is in partnership with Duke University to study cognition and social interaction by bottle feeding the pups.

“They’re so different than dogs. They’re capable of movement and interaction so much earlier than dogs,” said Peggy Callahan, the center’s founder and executive director.

And they are involved in more than one study. The North American grey wolf puppies are actually being used in a study to help learn about the breeding struggles of the Mexican wolf.

“We are always looking at things before it gets tested on a very endangered species, so we are using contraceptives on these guys that prevents breeding. But then the question is, ‘Is it going to be reversible?’”

Callahan said. “Because if you interfere with breeding success with even one or two Mexican wolves, that has profound implications for the database, the DNA of those wolves.”

The six puppies in the study are part of four litters, but not all the females were able to reproduce after being taken off the contraception.

“There are implications that there is some long-term impact on fertility, and that’s unfortunate,” Callahan said. “No big deal for us, but it’s a big deal for the Mexican wolf.”

Callahan also has a K-9 helper named Sean, a German Sheperd who acts as a surrogate parent.

“No matter how much time I spend with them, I can’t mimic that dog behavior down to the letter like he can,” she said. “So it gives them comfort. He corrects them, he makes them go to the bathroom, he’s just amazing.”

The puppies already weigh 10 pounds at 5 weeks old. As adults, that subspecies of gray wolf, called the tundra wolf, tops out at about 130 pounds.

The Critical Nature of Critical Habitat Decisions

by Brian Seasholes, Reason Foundation

T

he federal Endangered Species Act is enormously controversial for a number of reasons, one of which is the designation of “critical habitat.” As the term implies, critical habitat is what the agencies that implement the Act (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service) deem very important to the conservation of species listed under the Act. Controversy arises over the costs that result from designation of critical habitat, which can be enormous.

The habitat these agencies decide to include and exclude from designation as critical habitat can have significant economic and regulatory implications. For example, in 2005 the Fish and Wildlife Service designated 199,109 acres as critical habitat for the Central California Distinct Population Segment of the California Tiger Salamander in twenty California counties, and estimated designation would impose costs of $76,000,000 over twenty years.

Concurrently, the Service excluded 183,556 acres, which, had it been designated as critical habitat, would have had an economic impact of $364,978,338 over twenty years.

Despite the enormous amounts of land and money involved in the areas that are included and excluded as critical habitat, the federal government maintains decisions about what habitat is excluded are immune from legal challenge. This would strike many fair-minded people as unjust.

In response, Pacific Legal Foundation has petitioned the Supreme Court to take a case over whether federal agency decisions on excluding areas from designation as critical habitat are subject to judicial review.

In support of PLF’s petition, Reason Foundation and Cato Institute are filing a joint amicus brief. A portion of the amicus brief documents the impacts of critical habitat designation for 159 species, which is available in a spread sheet (here). The

A

total numbers for these 159 species are enormous, including: 60,169,546 acres (of which 11,261,054 is privately owned) included as critical habitat, which, along with other designated habitat (streams, lakes, ocean), will have an estimated economic impact of as much as $10,660,137,093 over twenty years; and the exclusion of 7,787,628 acres, and associated aquatic habitat, which would have had an economic impact of $1,955,411,884 had it been included.

Big numbers and a lot at stake, to be sure.

Which is why it is so important that federal agency decisions about which areas of habitat are excluded from designation as critical habitat should be subject to judicial review. This is a matter of simple fairness, good government and the ability of citizens to challenge the decisions of federal agencies. Let’s hope the Supreme Court sees it that way and agrees to take the case.

Lehnhoff Joins NMSU as Weed Ecologist

E

rik Lehnhoff was once an environmental engineer, but working with plants led him to his current career as a weed ecologist at New Mexico State University.

After earning a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Clemson University and a master’s degree in civil and environmental engineering from Tennessee Technological University, Lehnhoff spent time as an environmental consultant. His interest in plants and weeds grew, and he eventually earned a doctorate in ecology and environmental science from Montana State University.

“As an environmental consultant, most of the work had to do with solid and hazardous waste remediation, and it involved cleaning up sites where there had been chemical spills of some sort,” Lehnhoff said.

“We had to revegetate sites after removing the waste or treating the waste, and there were always weed problems when we tried to revegetate the sites. That’s what prompted me to go back to school and

learn more about plant ecology in general, but focusing on weeds and weed management.”

Lehnhoff just completed his second semester as an assistant professor of weed ecology in the NMSU Department of Entomology, Plant Pathology and Weed Science.

In addition to teaching several lectures in EPPWS 100, a freshmen introduction class that provides an overview of the entire department, Lehnhoff assisted with EPPWS 447, which is the senior and graduate student seminar class that focuses on organization and techniques for theoral presentation of research information.

And Lehnhoff is no stranger to research.

His research at NMSU involves both crops and rangeland invasive weeds.

“My general focus is trying to understand the drivers of plant invasions for one, and then their impacts on the native ecosystem and impacts on our uses of the ecosystem,” he said.

One of his current projects involves salt cedar, which affects water usage. Lehnhoff and other researchers are working on integrated pest management of salt cedar at the Caballo Reservoir.

“From the cropping side of things, I’m interested in very applied research on what

herbicide programs we can use to help chile growers, for instance,” he said. “I’d like to determine what quick and easy studies we can do to help growers improve their product and their yields.”

What Lehnhoff has enjoyed most at NMSU thus far is the willingness of everyone to collaborate across departments and that there are not any barriers to working with other people. Among others, he is working with extension entomologist Carol Sutherland on the salt cedar project, assistant professor of weed physiology Brian Schutte on the herbicide and chile studies and assistant professor of soil microbiology Nicole Pietrasiak regarding biotic and abiotic drivers of Lehmann lovegrass invasions at Jornada Experimental Range.

acific Legal Foundation (PLF) won a precedent-setting victory for property owners’ rights on May 31, 2016, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in our favor in the PLF case of United States Corps of Engineers v. Hawkes. The groundbreaking decision accepted PLF’s arguments that landowners have a right to seek judicial review when their property is designated as wetlands subject to federal jurisdiction under the Clean Water Act. “Today’s ruling marks a long-awaited victory for individual liberty, property rights, and the rule of law,” said PLF Principal Attorney M. Reed Hopper, who successfully argued the case in front of the justices. “For more than 40 years, millions of landowners nationwide have had no meaningful way to challenge wrongful application of the federal Clean Water Act to their land. They have been put at the mercy of the government because land covered by the Act is subject to complete federal control. But all that changed today.

The Supreme Court ruled that wetlands ‘jurisdictional determinations’ can be immediately challenged in court. Everyone who values property rights and access to justice should welcome this historic victory.”

IRS took $43M from Americans Under ‘Structuring’ Law Without Evidence

by Ali Meyer, Washington Free Beacon, Fox News

T

he IRS has seized $43 million from more than 600 individuals by accusing them of violating “structuring” laws even when there has been no evidence of criminal wrongdoing, according to testimony heard at the House Ways and Means Committee in late May. In 2012, two armed IRS agents went to the farm of Randy Sowers, a dairy farmer for over three decades, to notify him that the

IRS had seized the business’ bank account, which held more than $60,000. The agents told Sowers the IRS had done so because of structuring laws.

When an individual conducts a cash transaction in excess of $10,000, according to federal law, the bank must file a currency transaction report with the Treasury Department. It is unlawful for an individual to break up or “structure” cash deposits into amounts below $10,000 to avoid federal currency reporting.

“At that point, I had never before heard the term ‘structuring,’ and I had no idea that depositing cash in the bank could even potentially be a federal crime,” Sowers said.

“Nobody from the bank or the government warned me that under-$10,000 bank deposits could lead to the seizure of our bank

account. Indeed, nobody from the government contacted me about our bank deposits until after they seized our bank account.”

“I was shocked that the government would even consider bringing criminal charges when I had done nothing wrong,” Sowers said. “The IRS agents who came to the farm told me that the judge who approved the seizure had given them the authority to take anything up to $243,455— the amount of cash deposited in the account over a period of eight months.”

Opening the Doors of Justice is Critically Important

by Brian Seasholes, Reason Foundation

S

hould people affected by federal agency actions that impose over ten billion dollars of costs and impact tens of millions of acres for no benefit (and likely cause harm to the intended beneficiaries of the actions), be able to challenge such deci-

sions in court? It’s a matter of simple fairness: the doors of justice should be open to citizens so they can challenge government regulations, especially those that have significant costs and impacts.

In a just-filed amicus brief, in support of Pacific Legal Foundation’s petition to the Supreme Court to hear a case, Reason Foundation, Cato Institute and the National Federation of Independent Business Small Business Legal Center examined this issue as it pertains to the designation of “critical habitat” under the Endangered Species Act.

Yet the federal agencies that administer the Act maintain otherwise by claiming the agency actions under which critical habitat for species are designated, included which habitat is excluded from designation, are immune from legal challenge.

For a sense of the massive costs, illusory conservation benefits, and even environmental harm, designation of critical habitat entails consider the following from the Reason-Cato-NFIB amicus brief: Examining the data associated with the designation of critical habitat for 159 species—out of the 793 so treated as of May 1, 2016—reveals the enormous costs and amount of land and water involved in habitat designation.

The effects are: ЇЇ Total economic impact of up to $10.7 billion (usually over 20 years, following designation); ЇЇ Annual economic impacts of up to $1.3 billion; ЇЇ Hundreds of lost jobs per species; ЇЇ Regulatory burdens affecting 60,169,546 acres of land (11,261,054 privately owned), 83,372 miles of streams/creeks/rivers, and 68,846,720 acres of lakes/oceans/estuaries; ЇЇ Regulatory burdens associated with designating privately owned land adjacent to 27,851 miles of critical habitat streams and rivers. ЇЇ Designations in 37 states and two territories.

Despite these extraordinary costs and impacts for just 20 percent of the species with critical habitat, “a number of studies have found that critical habitat designation has no discernible influence on whether a species’ status is declining, stable, or improving,” according to the brief.

And here is what the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has to say about the conservation value of critical habitat: In 30 years of implementing the Act, the Service has found that the designation of statutory critical habitat provides little additional protection to most listed species, while consuming significant amounts of available conservation resources. The Service’s present system for designating critical habitat has evolved since its original statutory prescription into a process that provides little real conservation benefit, is driven by litigation and the courts rather than biology, limits our ability to fully evalcontinued on page 54 >>

according to the USFWS. 75 Fed. Reg. 78460 (Dec. 15, 2010).

If all this wasn’t bad enough: Critical habitat designation also harms the environment because “by reducing the density of development in areas deemed to be critical habitat, [it] can change the shape of urban areas and squeeze growth into more remote locations.” Sunding et al., The Economic Costs of Critical Habitat Designation, supra, at iii. “This effect of designation is costly for potential homebuyers and business owners as they are forced to locate to less desirable areas . . .

By encouraging sprawl, critical habitat designation can also lead toregional problems of road congestion and air pollution, in

addition to the problem of housing affordability already mentioned.” Id. Yet sprawl is identified as a major threat to wildlife, including endangered species. See generally, e.g., Reid Ewing & John Kostyack.

Endangered by Sprawl: How Runaway Development Threatens America’s Wildlife (2005).

So to sum up: critical habitat imposes billions of dollars of costs, across tens of millions of acres, for no discernible conservation benefit, and causes widespread environmental harm, including to the very species that are supposed to be helped.

While this may be business-as-usual for the federal government, it cries out for review by the Supreme Court.

VIEW FROM THE BACKSIDE

by Barry Denton

News & Cow Colors

I

have had many questions on my mind lately. There is an abundance of issues that do not make a damn bit of sense.

There is no point of even discussing some of these issues that get talked about in our daily news feeds day after day.

It is very odd to me how they arrive at what topics ought to be put out to the public each day and which items are swept under the rug. We have just about every type of news available to us at about any time that we want to look at it. You can watch the television network news, cable news, Arab news, Jewish news, liberal news, conservative news etc.

One thing I know for certain is that trustworthy news is very difficult to find if not impossible. Then you can throw in the website news and there is an abundance of garbage to boggle your mind.

News today is more of whoever’s point of view you like as opposed to a true account of what actually happened. Some of you that remember Walter Cronkite, may wish the news was delivered that way once again. While I like that format, Walter lied to us many times. It was not perfect then either. Hearsay can be very powerful and truth can be very scarce in our world today.

Along those same lines a reader told me that he liked my articles, but that I was “preaching to the choir.” He wanted to know why I did not put my articles in our very liberal hometown newspaper where they just might do some good. My reply was that the liberal hometown newspaper had no interest in the truth about any subject, nor did they want to tell both sides of any story.

It appears that Mr. Trump has been quite correct about the Islamic terrorist threat. He predicted Brussels and Florida. Meanwhile Washington seems to ignore the violence.

They may speak about it, but do not seem to do much about preventing it.

Remember, we did get the analogy comparing the Islamist terrorists to the Christians during the Crusades. I fail to see any connection between the two since one is ancient history and the other is a current event. This situation does not require talk it

needs action.

This is likened to the first World Trade Center bombing when Mr. Clinton turned down access to Osama Bin Laden. The President still thinks the biggest threat to the civilized world is global warming. There is so much conflicting information on that subject it is laughable.

Have you ever heard anything as absurd as the flatulence from cattle threatening your life? Do these nutty folks ever listen to themselves? However, we pretty much know we are going to have increased terror attacks.

Whoops, a newsflash just as I am writing this, over fifty people killed by a terrorist in a gay bar in Orlando, Florida. Can you believe it? I am sure that it will be blamed on the gun and not a terrorist.

Let’s talk about cattle for a minute. It appears that the latest fad is “Black Is Beautiful”. While I understand that trends exist in American culture I am surprised they carry over as much as they do to agri-business.

Isn’t it funny how the housewife has gone from the well marbled beef of the Hereford to the leaner beef of the Angus. I can understand the trend as we all think we will live healthier because of it. At this point

RIDING HERD

by Lee Pitts

D

A Cure For Everything

id you see the news out of London’s Imperial College where scientists have found the cure for everything?

A article in Nature Communications said that the scientists have genetically modified mosquitoes in the lab to produce sperm that produced 95 percent male offspring.

By turning loose these GMO mosquitoes they could eliminate ALL mosquitoes in a few generations because there would be no female mosquitoes left. The scientists said they’d only use it on small samples of the blood suckers at first but once that cat is out of the bag putting it back will be worse than shoving a swollen 50 pound prolapse back into a cow.

I predicted this years ago in a column when I said that women would someday find a way to eliminate all men thereby solving all the world’s ills. Now it’s actually possible.

While the scientists are at it why not eradicate house flies, horse flies, fruit flies and all fly flies? I don’t like fleas or fire ants either so let’s get rid of them along with the birds who poop on my car, cockroaches, mice, rats, bats, rattlesnakes, loud crickets, and creepy spiders. Better yet, why not just get rid of all bugs? Just think, you’d hardly ever have to wash your car’s windshield, spray with OFF® or slap yourself silly trying

to kill those pesky chiggers and no-see-ums that torment you on hot summer days. I’m sure my fellow westerners would love to see all those nasty EPA officials swarming over the West to be swatted with one giant genetic fly swatter too.

I think I speak for all gardeners when I say eliminate cabbage worms, corn worms, apple worms, cucumber beetles, thrips, aphids, grasshoppers, snails, slugs, gophers, mites and moles. While they’re at it why not eradicate rascally raccoons and the deer that eat all my wife’s flowers?

Just think ranchers, no more salt cedar, juniper, mesquite and mustard. And sheepherders will be glad to hear it’s possible to eliminate all those beasts that eat their baby lambs, like wolves and coyotes. I’m sure that rancher in Montana who just lost 40 lambs to one bear would want us to include bruins on my death wish list too.

The London scientists admitted that it’s unclear the effects the mosquito extermination would have but let’s take a step back for a moment and think about this. The mosquitoes provide food for many fish so without the mosquitoes, there’d be no fish and without fish there’d probably be no Cabelas or Bass Pro Shops. I’m sorry but that’s not a trade I’m willing to make.

You just know it would be a government

agency in charge of deciding who gets terminated. If you thought a bunch of IRS flunkies auditing your taxes because you’re a conservative was frightening just wait until the government witch doctors come after you. I think it would be great if they’d let the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service do the exterminations because they are known as APHIS and if they did wipe out aphis as I suggested, it would be the first time in history that a government agency ever got rid of itself. Now there’s an idea I think we can all get behind.

The universities would no doubt play a role too and as broke as they say they are you could give them a new building or two and have them come up with a study for Angus breeders that says Hereford breeders should eliminated. Brangus breeders will want to do away with Gert breeders and I’m sure there are those who would do away with investigative journalists. My fellow humor columnists, a word to the wise, I wouldn’t buy any green bananas if I were you because the first time you fail to be funny you could be the next to go. This is a slippery slope folks.

The biggest problem I see is that once a species got down to a few million head a different government agency would declare it an endangered species and then you’d have two agencies of the federal government each spending billions of your tax dollars trying to eliminate and save a species at the same time.

Call me old-fashioned if you will but sometimes we must resist technology and leave well enough alone.

following the arrival of the railroad in 1979.

In 1883 these events merged into what would become the prototype for the modern Fiesta, which included a reenactment of De Vargas’s triumphant entry into Santa Fe.” By 1911 and 1912 the Fiesta was held on July fourth, but from 1913 to 1918, it was not held at all.

According to the Santa Fe New Mexican for July 31, 1916, the Chamber of Commerce discussed the possibility of a “revival on a stupendous scale of the De Vargas Pageant . . . .” Apparently, the celebration didn’t get beyond the discussion phase at that time.

In 1919 Archaeologist Edgar Lee Hewett, as director of the School of American Research, became involved. His plan called for a three-day celebration beginning on September 11. The first day was devoted to Indian culture, including dancing. The second day was devoted to Vargas and the reconquest, but not of 1692 but rather the “resumption of civic control” in 1693. The third day was called “Santa Fe Moderna” and featured, among other things, a reenactment of General Stephen Watts Kearny occupation of Santa Fe in 1846.

This event was not entirely satisfactory to everyone. Author Oliver La Farge wrote,

Climate Denial Finally Pays Off A series of Journal editorial page-bashing ads shows the climate cause in mid-crackup.

by Holman W. Jenkins, Jr., Wall Street Journal

N

o contributor has written more frequently on the subject of climate change on these pages—45 times over the past 20 years according to the “study” behind a recent series of ads (at $27,309 a pop) assailing the Journal’s editorial page for its climate coverage.

Yet how ploddingly conventional my views have been: I’ve written that evidence of climate change is not evidence of what causes climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change agrees, in its latest report estimating with less than 100 percent confidence that a human role accounts for half the warming between 1951 and 2010.

I’ve written that it would be astonishing if human activity had no impact, but the important questions are how and how much. The IPCC agrees, estimating that a doubling of atmospheric CO from pre-industrial times would hike temperatures 2

between 1.5 degrees and 4.5 degrees (Celsius), notably an increase in the range of uncertainty since its last report.

I’ve said science has been unable to discern signal from noise in the hunt for man-made warming. Yup, that’s why the IPCC relies on computer simulations. Indeed, the most telling words in its latest report are a question: “Are climate models getting better, and how would we know?”

I’ve said it’s difficult to justify action on cost-benefit grounds. The Obama administration agrees, acknowledging that its coal plans will cost many billions but have no meaningful impact on climate even a century from now.

So how many columns out of 45 win approval from the Partnership for Responsible Growth, the new group paying for the Journal-baiting ad? Only two, describing the superiority of a carbon tax, the option the Partnership exists to plump for, compared to other climate nostrums.

Here’s what else I’ve learned in 20 years.

Many advocates of climate policy are ignoramuses on the subject of climate science, and nothing about the Partnership for Economic Progress—founded by former Democratic congressman Walt Minnick plus

a couple of big donors—breaks with this tradition.

Only a nincompoop would treat a complex set of issues like human impact on climate as a binary “yes/no” question—as the Partnership and many climate policy promoters do. Only an idiot would ask an alleged “expert” what he knows without showing any curiosity about how he knows it—a practice routine among climate-advocating journalists.

So Tom Gjelten, host of a recent NPR discussion of the Journal ad controversy, is completely satisfied when Matt Nisbet, a professor of communications studies at Northeastern University, explains, “On the fundamentals of climate science, there is absolutely no debates. The overwhelming majority of scientists . . . strongly agree that climate change is happening, that it’s human-caused and that it’s an urgent problem.”

Notice that he doesn’t cite any science but an (undocumented) agreement of people who agree with him, while conflating three very different questions.

To be sure, Prof. Nisbet then promptly covers his derrière and takes it all back, saying: “In the field, there is some disagree-

ment on the pace of climate change, the severity, its specific impacts.”

By then the damage is done. The discussion proceeds on the basis that anybody who takes part in this disagreement about pace, severity and specific impacts is a denier and enemy of science.

Here’s what you also won’t learn from most climate reporting: Climate models that predict significant warming presume natural feedbacks that magnify the impact of human-released carbon dioxide by 100 percent to 400 percent. Models that presume no dominant feedbacks see warming of only about one degree Celsius over the entire course of a doubling of atmospheric CO . Who knows what future scientific advances will reveal, but models 2

that assume minimal feedback are more consistent with the warming seen so far— and remember, we’ve been burning coal for 200 years and accumulating temperature records for longer than that.

The U.S. political system gets a bad rap but has rationally concluded that it can’t sell large costs on this evidence. More to the point, never has it been the case that major legislation or policy departures are adopted only when all opposition and dissent are silenced. The premise of the assault on Exxon, the Journal, other campaigns against “deniers,” is worse than foolish. The climate crowd has turned to persecuting critics as a substitute for meaningful climate action because, as President Obama has acutely observed, voters won’t support

their efforts to jack up energy prices.

Functionally, whatever advocates tell themselves, these attacks end up churning the waters and propagandizing for those niggling little things that actually can be enacted, having no impact on climate but lining the pockets of organized interests who return the favor with campaign donations.

That’s how our political system behaves, on climate and most other subjects—which perhaps explains why voters are so tired of the people who man our political system.

New Guide to Poisonous Range Plants Available

by Callie Gnatkowski-Gibson

R

anchers with questions about the effects of different range plants on livestock or with unexplained symptoms in their herds, can look to the new circular Poisonous Plants of New Mexico Rangelands, released in March by New Mexico State University’s (NMSU’s) Cooperative Extension Service and the Linebery Center for Natural Resource Management, for more information.

Co-authors Chris Allison, Range Scientist with the Linebery Policy Policy Center for

Natural Resource Management; Jason Turner, Professor/Extension Horse Specialist with NMSU’s Department of Extension Animal Sciences and Natural Resources; and John Wenzel, Extension Veterinarian with NMSU’s Department of Extension Animal Sciences and Natural Resources wrote the guide as a replacement for one published in the early 1990s.

The book, which has been in the works since 2012, is as up to date as possible, Allison said. It includes updated information on plants and the symptoms they can cause in livestock; research on new poisonous plants; and a detailed section on loco weeds and the three different ways that genus of plants can affect range livestock.

“This is something I’ve always had an interest in, and I am tickled with how it came out.”

Also included in the publication is a table of symptoms which ranchers can use as a reference to help determine which weeds may be causing their problem, a glossary of veterinary terms and a section on common things – not weed related – that could cause an animal’s condition. “It can be hard to see what has killed an animal, but not every dead animal was killed by a weed,” Allison noted.

The circular should be available soon as an ebook through NMSU’s website – www. nmsu.edu . Print copies can also be obtained by contacting one of the authors.

NEWS UPDATE

Gila River Diversion Plans May Get Downsized

less costly alternative to a multibillion-dollar plan to divert water from the Gila River has been proposed by a group representing local governments and irrigation districts. (Jim Thompson/Albuquerque Journal) Discussions over how the state could – or whether it should – pull water from the Gila River have been a decade in the making, and the decision to scale back appears to be a rebuke of the Interstate Stream Commission’s aspirations for a larger scale project that could deliver the full amount of water owed to the state.

New Mexico is entitled to an additional 14,000 acre-feet of water per year under the Arizona Water Settlement Act, and the act allots the state up to $128 million to pursue a diversion. But the most contentious plans have pinned construction costs between $800 million and $1 billion at the high end, not counting maintenance or operating expenses.

The New Mexico Unit of the Central Arizona Project, or CAP, entity – a board made up of about a dozen local governments, irrigation associations and water districts in southwestern New Mexico – voted recently to pursue only those project components that would cost between $80 million and $100 million and which could yield a fraction of the allotted water, potentially 4,000 acre-feet.

An acre-foot of water is 326,000 gallons, or the amount required to cover an acre of land with a foot of water.

Anthony Gutierrez, the New Mexico CAP entity’s executive director, called the board’s decision “a huge new direction.”

“We don’t want a $700 million project when we have $100 million,” he said. “We want, however, to design a project that we can expand on in the future. We don’t know what this area is going to look like in 50 years.”

The decision has brought little relief to environmentalists who say they fear that any diversion of water – particularly a diversion that would be scaled up over time – could have devastating impacts on the river ecology.

“The way this process is going I can’t imagine a diversion we would support because there doesn’t seem to be any regard for species or riverside vegetation,” said Todd Schulke, co-founder of the Center for Biological Diversity who advocates for Gila River protections. “Water withdrawals anywhere can have negative impacts on the river and the species that depend on it.”

The CAP entity is up against a deadline: In early July, the board must tell the Bureau of Reclamation which diversion alternatives it intends to pursue, triggering the start of a multifaceted evaluation required under the National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA. The board’s decision to scale back the project could breed tensions with the ISC going forward. The CAP entity has authority to determine the design of the Gila River diversion but the ISC, which has a non-voting member on the CAP entity board, holds the purse strings and directs the engineering contractor.

The ISC and CAP entity “are working together successfully to meet the deadlines in the AWSA,” an ISC spokeswoman said in an emailed response to questions.

“The ISC hasn’t lost sight of the fact that New Mexico still has the right to keep 14,000 acre-feet but we do want a feasible project,” Gutierrez said. “We’re not necessarily in conflict, but the CAP entity wants a project that is real.”

The state has used up some of the funding available to pay for studies. Somewhere between $10 million and $15 million of the settlement act money has been spent or committed, the board’s attorney Pete Domenici Jr. said during the meeting.

“I love agriculture, and I am honored to work for an organization that is all about helping promote agriculture. I am so happy to be a part of the Ag New Mexico Farm Credit team,” Cullison says.

She and her husband, Jon, a conductor

for BNSF Railroad, have two grown children.

Their daughter, Kayla, 21, will graduate from Eastern New Mexico University in December. Their son, Tyler, 24, and his wife, Tawny, are expecting a baby in November.

Effects of Predation on Cortisol & Progesterone Levels in Gestating Ewes

by M. A. Ward, A. F. Summers, S. L. Rosasco, J. K. Beard, S. A. Soto-Navarro and D. M. Hallford

I

n the early morning hours of February 26, 2015 two stray dogs entered the East sheep unit of the New Mexico State University (NMSU) Campus Farm and attacked the flock. Of the 48 ewes housed in this unit, 4 were killed on site, and 5 later died or were euthanized due to their injuries. Through the chaos of the morning, it was quickly decided among the faculty of the Department of Animal and Range Sciences and Extension Animal Sciences and Natural Resources that something important could be learned from this tragic event. The data collected from this impromptu research project will be presented at the National Meeting of the American Association of Animal Science in July of 2016.

INTRODUCTION Predation of livestock can result in substantial economic loss, due to death loss (Ashcroft et. al., 2009). What is not clearly understood are the production losses due to stress of animals chronically exposed to predation. Cortisol is an adrenal hormone correlated with a physiological response to stress (Hough et al., 2015). Cortisol can have a negative effect on circulating progesterone and glucose metabolism in pregnant animals (Keller-Wood, et al., 2014). Currently very little is known about actual pregnancy loss or dystocia related prolonged exposure to stress in a production setting.

METHODS The objective of this study was to measure stress parameters in pregnant ewes; either injured or exposed to a dog attack or not exposed. Though this study was impromptu in nature, the project was approved by IACUC before going forward.

To better understand the impacts of predation on surviving animals, blood was collected via jugular venipuncture at 4, 28, continued on page 72 >>

RESULTS CONTINUED Increased circulating concentrations of cortisol in ewes receiving injury 4 h after attack, whereas blood cortisol concentrations were not greater than CON in the E group until the 28 h sampling. Although the dog attack occurred approximately 2 weeks prior to lambing, there was no difference in proportion of ewes experiencing dystocia (P = 0.27) or the level of dystocia (P = 0.15).

CONCLUSION It was a unique opportunity to measure cortisol and progesterone in pregnant ewes so shortly after a violent attack by predators.

As expected, circulating cortisol spiked at 4h in those ewes injured in the attack. Interestingly, the uninjured exposed ewes’ cortisol did not peak until 28 h post attack; indicating

they may have been on high alert. Though cortisol began to lower in both E and EI by 76 h, levels still averaged 10-15 points greater than the unaffected group.

CONCLUSION CONTINUED NMSU lost almost 20 percent of their production flock located on the main campus, due to the attack of two dogs in February of 2015. This group of ewes were within 2 weeks of parturition. Though no statistical significant differences were seen in dystocia values, student observation noted less milk production, more downer ewes, and in general more lambing issues than normal.

eorge and Vera Curtis came to New Mexico as small children in the early 1900s. Their parents, arriving in a covered wagon, homesteaded in rural Quay County, New Mexico, on the Llano Estacado. Forrest, New Mexico, was the nearest place of commerce, a community built around a rural schoolhouse where their children of the 1920s and 1930s era received their education. George heard of the Aberdeen Angus breed, and much improved genetics that the breed was known for, and made the decision to acquire a registered Angus herd of his own. Traveling across the U.S. in search of the best genetics that money could buy turned out to be quite an adventure for Mr. Curtis but also a memorable quest for the Curtis children of the era. George Curtis and his youngest son James V. Curtis accepted the challenge of competing with the other top Angus breeders of the 40s and 50s at numerous State and regional competitions including the Denver and Ft. Worth livestock shows. When James V. Curtis (Rip) returned from his world travels, sponsored by the U. S. Air Force, with his wife, a North Carolina native and Air Force registered nurse, Thelma, the Curtis team resumed their Angus breeding venture. As cutting edge technology became available in the form of artificial insemination and embryo transplant, the Curtis family began to utilize these new tools to improve the herd focusing on the genetic traits that most needed improvement both in the industry and on the Curtis ranch. George Curtis’ passing in 1977 and his son’s passing in 1994 left the responsibility of sire selection and herd genetics to the present generation of Curtises. Tamara, Blake and Tye Curtis still operate George Curtis, Inc. today. The Curtis family takes pride in completing three generations in the Registered Angus cattle business. Our pledge is to continue to meet our customers’ expectations of excellence. The easy calving, top gaining, moderate framed stock that the Curtis family has been known for in the past is still available today at George Curtis Inc.

What could the beef industry do differently?

Fifty years ago I graduated from college, and the beef mortality was high. The tools we have today help some but they are not enough. People fib about their calf mortality rate and breeding time schedule. With all the tools modern herdsmen have at their disposal, why can’t they do as well as other cloven hoof creatures? They deliver an offspring that stands as soon as it hits the ground and begins to suckle right away. All cloven hooved animals have no trouble with weak offspring except for western cattle.

Take the following test: 1. How many calves did you wean?

70% - 80% - 90% - 101%?

2. How many of your cows have been sold because they didn’t conceive during a sixty or ninety day breeding schedule?

3. How many calves were treated with medicine in the first two weeks of life?

4. How many calves have you given colostrum?

5. How many breech births, retained afterbirth, or prolapsed uterus’ have you had?

6. Have you had to treat for uterine infections?

7. How many calves did you have to sell because they were underweight or did not fit the 60- or 90-day breeding schedule?

8. Wouldn’t you like to have calves born in a 60– or 90–day period or less?

9. Does your calving schedule leave you exhausted?

If you are using a bull with a weak loin and he’s posed up on a hill or a mound of soil, you are canceling out calving ease. There is more to calving ease than a large pelvis and a small birth weight because that is just a band aid fix for calving. There is much to learn about calving ease, read William Boyd Tegtmeier’s book to acquire more knowledge.

What a disaster it has become for the western world of cattle!

Many factors affecting beef market prices & volatility

by Derrell S. Peel, Oklahoma State University Extension livestock marketing specialist

A

wide variety of internal and external factors are impacting beef and cattle price levels and volatility. Beef production is at a seasonal peak in June with weekly beef production since late May estimated to be nearly 7 percent above year ago levels. Fed cattle prices have dropped and could be near an early seasonal low with feedlots ahead of schedule for summer marketings. Year over year cattle slaughter is up while cattle carcass weights are lower compared to last year, moderating beef production increases somewhat. With Independence Day meat already booked, wholesale beef values have dropped sharply the past ten days to support sales of seasonally large beef supplies. If the three-day July 4 weekend results in strong retail beef movement, beef markets may maintain good momentum through the summer doldrums between July 4 and Labor Day meat sales in August. The latest retail beef prices indicate that beef prices are declining quite slowly; in fact, the all fresh beef price for May was up slightly from April. Overall indications are that beef demand is holding strong in the face of growing beef supplies. Beef movement this spring has been good; indicated in part by the drawdown of large beef cold storage supplies to levels six percent below year earlier levels in the latest report.

The June Cattle on Feed report was very close to expectations and should not provoke much market reaction. The report did confirm strong marketings that suggest that feedlots continue to be very current, as evidenced by declining carcass weights.

The report also confirmed continued year over year increases in feedlot placements meaning that feedlot production will be cyclically higher late in the year. The increased placements were all in the heavy weight categories and will be marketed out of feedlots in the fourth quarter of the year.

June 1 feedlot inventories were 102 percent of year ago levels. Despite larger feedlot inventories and big feedlot placements, feedlots are in significantly better shape now compared to this time last year and well positioned to handle the challenges of

increased feedlot production in the coming months as long as marketings continue at a good pace The recent Brexit vote, with the United Kingdom opting in a close vote to exit the European Union, sent shock waves through global markets and especially for currency exchange markets. The U.S. dollar strengthened, not only against the British pound, but also against most other currencies. The Japanese yen also strengthened sharply as global markets turned to the safe havens of the dollar and the yen. It is likely that a good deal of the uncertainty surrounding the UK departure from the European Union will subside but the timetable is unknown and some impacts will persist for extended periods or permanently. Meantime, U.S. beef and other meat markets are hampered by the additional headwinds of a stronger dollar slowing exports and supporting imports.

Soybeans led a crop price rally over the last month, mostly on crop concerns out of South America. Corn followed suit supported by ample fund buying which all crashed down on the reality that the U.S. corn crop is large and in very good shape at this point in the year. Higher average soybean prices are expected in the coming crop year, with U.S. corn prices close to year earlier levels. A recent crop acreage report could show some shift of corn acres to soybeans although total planted acreage could be bigger with less prevented plant acres expected compared to last year. Corn, soybean and wheat acreage could all shift somewhat with this next report. Major impacts on crop markets and prices are not expected but the uncertainty is there. In general, beef market fundamentals are quite strong but broad-based market volatility will continue to be a challenge for producers.

Fracturing In another recent case where several states had filed suit against the BLM over their new hydraulic fracturing regulations, the court ruled “…the Bureau of Land Management lacked Congressional authority to promulgate the regulations.” Yes, a court has finally ruled a federal agency had overreached. There is also some wonderful language in the decision which should be music to the ears of producers everywhere.

Just savor the following: [The Supreme] Court consistently has given voice to, and has reaffirmed, the central judgment of the Framers of the Constitution that, within our political scheme, the separation of governmental powers into three coordinate Branches is essential to the

And it also has this beauty: Although the Secretary asserts FLPMA delegates to BLM broad authority and discretion to manage and regulate activities on public lands, nothing in FLPMA provides BLM with specific authority to regulate hydraulic fracturing or underground injections of any kind; rather, FLPMA primarily establishes congressional policy that the Secretary manage the public lands under principles of multiple use and sustained yield. ...At its core, FLPMA is a land use planning statute.

That last paragraph may cause several BLM actions to be carefully reviewed. An example might be their recent policy to re gulate lan ds w ith w il d e r n ess characteristics.

Wilderness The 16,000 acre Sabinoso Wilderness was established by Congress in 2009. This was Senator Udall’s baby, but went nowhere until Senator Martin Heinrich arrived on the scene to shepherd it through. Upon Obama’s signing of the bill, Udall issued a press release saying the Wilderness “will now be open for grazing, hunting and other recreational uses.” There was just one problem: The area has no public access.

You’d think that would be the perfect Wilderness. After all, the sole purpose of a Wilderness designation is to limit human access. But no, the elite recreationists wanted some type of access. And in February of this year the Wilderness Land Trust announced they had received a $3,150,000 contribution from the Wyss Foundation, allowing the trust to acquire the Rimrock Rose Ranch which is adjacent to the Wilderness. As part of the announcement, the trust said they would be partnering with the BLM to donate the lands to the agency, increasing the size of the Wilderness and thereby allowing public access.

Concerning this partnership Senator Udall said, “I’d like to thank the Wyss Foundation and the Wilderness Land Trust”; Senator Heinrich called the two organizations “dedicated partners” and said this was a “great achievement; and Rep. Lujan thanked them for their “efforts”.

In June the BLM issued a formal proposal to accept the donation. There is just one catch: As part of the deal the BLM has agreed to eliminate two grazing allotments totaling 6,260 acres for which the ranch served as the base property. This condition was imposed by the Wilderness Land Trust.

So I have some questions. Concerning the outlawing of ranching on two allotments, do our Reps “welcome” this requirement of the Wilderness Land Trust?

Will Senator Udall and Rep. Lujan still “thank” them? Does Senator Heinrich still

It has no constitutional or common law existence or authority outside that expressly conveyed to it by Congress. ...an administrative agency’s power to regulate in the public interest must always be grounded in a valid grant of authority from Congress.

believe this is a “great achievement” by his “dedicated partners”? Senator Heinrich has attempted in the past to include grazing buyout language in a bill moving through Congress. Isn’t this a “buyout” of the same nature?

You know the Senators have been monitoring the effort and were briefed on its contents prior to any public announcement.

At any point they could have intervened and sought to influence the agreement so that ranching could continue. Apparently they chose not to do so.

Till next time, be a nuisance to the devil and don’t forget to check that cinch.

Minnesota Prairie Restorers Recruit Surprising Ally: Cows

by Britta Greene, www.mprnews.org

C

attle grazing has proven to be a helpful tool for conservation groups looking to preserve grassland in the region. Grazing, when managed properly, can improve wildlife diversity and soil health.

Records say when the first plows sliced through the great Midwestern prairie, a popping sound rang through the air like a volley of pistol shots. It was the sound of millions of roots snapping against the

plow’s steel blade.

Vast tall grass prairie once covered about a third of Minnesota’s landscape. But less than two percent of that native grassland remains, much of it plowed under for agricultural use.

“The places where you still have prairie and grass, are places where it was very difficult, or unprofitable to farm,” Steve Chaplin, prairie conservation coordinator for Minnesota and Dakotas for the nonprofit Nature Conservancy, said he stood on a stretch of prairie outside Moorhead.

Now, though, state agencies and private conservation groups are pushing ahead on plans to preserve tracts of land – and cattlemen and their cows are playing a surprisingly important role.

Preserving prairie has meant figuring out ways to mimic certain elements of the environment before settlers moved in. Conservationists say cattle can mimic much of the grazing patterns of bison, which once covered the prairie and whose presence was vital to the ecosystem.

“We, the conservation community in general, have been saying cows and conservation don’t work together,” said Greg Hoch, prairie habitat team leader for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. “After further research ... we’ve figured out cows and conservation can work very very well together.”

Cattle are not a perfect proxy for bison, as the animals have different styles of grazing. For one, cattle are more preferential to certain plants. And bison would tend to graze an area very intensely, only to leave for long periods of time, sometimes years.

So land managers have to carefully track the duration and intensity of cattle grazing to best model historic conditions.

The DNR and conservation groups have been working for the past several years to forge relationships with cattlemen nearby to grasslands.

Contracts between land managers and ranchers can vary from case to case, but typically no money changes hands, Hoch said. Ranchers must agree to stipulations around land use, and Hoch emphasized the benefits observed on the land, including improvements to plant and wildlife health and diversity.

Land managers can turn to controlled burns or mowing to provide some of the same benefits as cattle grazing, but these tools have certain drawbacks and limitations.

Grant Breitkreutz, a leader in the Minnesota Cattlemen’s Association who raises cattle in southwest Minnesota, said he’s been satisfied with his experience grazing DNR land over the past several years. But he said it’s been hard to watch how slow the program is growing overall.

“It’s been a little bit frustrating,” Breitkreutz said. “As producers in the state, we know we can manage that land for them.”

Conservation groups and cattle producers have had some growing pains around fencing agreements and other logistics and that’s kept the use of conservation grazing from expanding as quickly as both groups would like. The DNR grazed just over 10,000 acres last year well shy of the agency’s 50,000-acre goal.

Forestry Company Sues Greenpeace Under Anti-Mafia Law For Conspiracy forestry company filed a civil Racketeer Inf luenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) lawsuit against Greenpeace recently for misrepresenting the company’s environmental record to raise funds and promote its agenda.

Greenpeace knowingly and deliberately made false claims about the company while fundraising, and fabricated evidence of Resolute’s alleged environmental malfeasance, according to the forestry and paper company Resolute Forest Products. RICO is an anti-mafia law designed to combat organized crime. “‘Greenpeace’ is a global fraud,” states the 124-page legal complaint. “For years, this international network of environmental groups collectively calling themselves

‘Greenpeace’ has fraudulently induced people throughout the United States and the world to donate millions of dollars based on materially false and misleading claims about its purported environmental purpose and its ‘campaigns’ against targeted companies. Maximizing donations, not saving the environment, is Greenpeace’s true objective.”

Resolute alleges Greenpeace outright fabricated and digitally modified photos to damage the company and increase fundraising efforts. It accuses the environmental group of being “consistently based on sensational misinformation untethered to facts or science, but crafted instead to induce strong emotions and, thereby, donations.”

Greenpeace has ironically repeatedly urged the federal government to investigate oil companies and organizations that dispute the risks of global warming using the exact same RICO legislation. Specifically, Greenpeace’s media officer called upon the Department of Justice to undertake a “broad” investigation to “look into the role of other fossil fuel companies, trade associations, and think tanks in sowing doubt about the risks of climate change.”

Greenpeace and other environmental activists met behind closed doors in January to coordinate how to best get government prosecutors to go after ExxonMobil for allegedly misleading the public about global warming, according to documents obtained by The Wall Street Journal in April.

Three state attorneys general launched investigations into Exxon at the behest of Greenpeace and other environmental activist groups since November. The attorney general of the U.S. Virgin Islands sent a subpoena to the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), a libertarian think tank, in April. The AGs are basing their investigations on reports from InsideClimate News and Columbia University claiming Exxon knew about the dangers of global warming for decades while funding groups skeptical of warming. Both groups are financed by left-wing foundations looking to ban oil and other conventional sources of energy.

Game & Fish and Texas Tech Collaborate on Research Project

T

he New Mexico Department of Game & Fish (NMDGF) has announced that they will be partnering with Texas Tech University (Tech) to address low pronghorn fawn survival rates in south-central New Mexico. The low survival rate over the last five years has biologists looking for answers.

NMDGF personnel, in collaboration with Tech, captured 58 fawns outside of Capitan, New Mexico in an effort to discover the primary causes for high fawn mortality. The pronghorn fawns were captured in May and June using a hoop net. Body measurements were taken and ear-tag transmitters placed on each animal and then they were quickly released to reduce overall stress.

None of the fawns died during the capture. However, less than a month into the study biologists documented 39 deaths, more than 50 percent of which are known to be the result of predation. Twelve of the fawns were taken by bobcats, 11 by coyotes, 15 from unknown causes and one due to failing to cross a fence.

“Based on what we’ve seen during past surveys, the numbers don’t surprise me. It’s consistent with the survival rates over the last five to 10 years,” said Orrin Duvuvuei, deer and pronghorn biologist for NMDFG. Duvuvuei said that at the end of the project, the department hopes to gain insight on potential management actions that can be applied to improve fawn survival rates.

Having already documented a past population decline, NMDGF supplemented the existing pronghorn herd by relocating 152 animals over three years to the area.

Without stronger recruitment into the existing herds, Game and Fish biologists fear the population may begin a downward trend.

NMDGF conducted the study with funding from a Pittman-Robertson Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration grant. Additionally, Texas Tech helped with both funding and personnel.

New Mexico’s 2016 AgriFuture Institute prepared future farmers, ranchers, agri-business leaders

Agricultural organizations and agencies in New Mexico collaborated to expand upon an exciting new trend: more young people are taking up farming, ranching, and other careers in agricultural production in the Land of Enchantment.

New Mexico Department of Agriculture (NMDA), the New Mexico Beef Council, and a dozen other agencies and organizations involved in New Mexico agriculture coordinated and hosted the 2016 AgriFuture Educational Institute for beginning/future farmers and ranchers, as well as those aiming for other careers in agriculture. The institute was held May 16-18 in Las Cruces.

“The goal of the AgriFuture Educational Institute was to inform, inspire, and connect the people who will produce our food and fiber going forward,” said New Mexico Secretary of Agriculture Jeff Witte. “The Institute achieved that by bringing together future ag producers and current ag producers, and facilitated a conversation among that diverse group.”

Access to land and capital are often said to be the major roadblocks for young people who want to join the ranks of today’s farmers and ranchers. That topic was one of many addressed in the breakout session piece of the institute. Then attendees boarded several buses to take private tours of a wide variety of agricultural businesses in and around Las Cruces.

The institute was open to future agricultural producers age 40 and under and to current agricultural producers of all ages in hopes that they would serve as mentors going forward.

The next AgriFuture Conference will be held in 2018.

Questions Cattlemen Should Ask About Their Checkoff Dollars This is the New Mexico version of an article from the Northern Ag Network, written by Kristin Larson, a beef producer, livestock market operator and President of the Montana Beef Council. It provides a great summary of the questions that should be and are asked by producers regarding the beef checkoff. Thank you Kristin!

W

here do my checkoff dollars go? Why don’t I see beef advertising anymore? Who in the world is making those decisions? Have you ever asked questions like these? Ranchers should be aware of how your checkoff dollars are spent. After all, your beef checkoff program is a producer-led program from the state to the national level.

Beef producers joined together over 30 years ago and created the 1986 Beef Promotion and Research Act which established the self-help program that is the national beef checkoff. Every time you sell a beef animal, $1 per head is deducted from your sale. In New Mexico, this dollar is remitted to the New Mexico Beef Council. Fifty cents of the dollar is retained by the state and fifty cents is remitted to the Cattlemen’s

QUESTIONS cont. from page 177

Beef Board (CBB). The CBB is a national board that oversees the national checkoff and is made up of beef and dairy producers from each state, and importers, appointed by the Secretary of Agriculture. New Mexico has one member on the Beef Board, Bill King, Stanley, NM. Beef checkoff dollars can only be used for promotion, consumer information, industry information, research and producer communications.

The New Mexico Beef Council makes the decisions of how the fifty cents that stay in New Mexico are spent. The council is made up of representatives from cow/calf, purebred, feeders, and dairy segments of the industry.

In addition to their work in their respective states, New Mexico and forty-two other Qualified State Beef Councils belong to the Federation of State Beef Councils which is housed under the umbrella of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association. One New Mexico Beef Council Director represents New Mexico on the Federation. Bernarr Treat, Chairman of the NMBC serves as New Mexico’s director on the Federation.

On the national level the Beef Promotion Act and Order established a Beef Promotion Operating Committee (BPOC) which contracts with established national non-profit industry governed organizations (Contractors) to carry out the promotion, consumer information, industry information, research and producer communications. The BPOC is made up of ten members from the Cattlemen’s Beef Board (CBB) and ten members from the Federation of State Beef Councils. This unique format (of state and national representatives) allows projects that are brought to the committee to be viewed at the national program level and the state program level.

These contractors submit authorization requests to the BPOC each September for the next fiscal year which begins on October 1 of each year. Contractors to the BPOC have included organizations such as the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, the American Farm Bureau Federation Foundation, the American National CattleWomen, the North American Meat Institute, the National Livestock Producer’s Association, the Meat Export Federation and the Meat Importers Council of America.

For FY 2016 there were approximately $42 million dollars available for disbursement. For perspective, Coca Cola spends about $565 million each year for advertising in the United States. The BPOC meets in person in Denver for two days each September to review and discuss the requests. In order to prepare for this meeting, committee members receive a book comprised of the Authorization Requests that is about one and a half inches thick to study in order to make the best decisions about how OUR and YOUR checkoff dollars are spent. This past year, as in most years, the requests add up to more than the dollars available. The twenty committee members spend hours and hours on deciding which projects will do the most to further beef demand. They look at each Authorization Request through the lens of the goals set forth in the beef industry Long Range Plan. After much discussion in an open meeting, the BPOC makes recommendations for which projects are to be funded. After approval by the full Cattlemen’s Beef Board and the Secretary of Agriculture, contracts are signed and checkoff program work can begin.

So back to the questions: Where do my checkoff dollars go...the answer ranges from digital advertising to salmonella research to issues management and hundreds of projects in between. Why don’t I see beef advertising anymore...because we (beef producers) are not our target audience unless you happen to be a millennial and 27-34 year old with children! As checkoff decision makers we have identified the older millennial parent as our consumer target because they are large in numbers and have many questions about beef. Who in the world is making these decisions...it is someone just like you!

at all aspects of the beef industry,” Smith says. “We connect producers with feeders, packers, processors, retailers and experts in the fields of genetics, reproduction, and industry, so they leave the program with knowledge and information to better their operation.”

Vigil said learning about the packing business, branded beef programs, genetic possibilities, and what the association can offer ranchers like him was extremely valuable. He also said seeing the demand for CAB has reinforced the importance of using high-quality genetics.

“I plan to work to put together better bulls in order to create a better end product,” he said.

A complete list of 2016 BLI participants follows. For more information on how to participate in the leadership event, visit www.angus.org. Applications for the 2017 class will be available online starting next winter.

REAL ESTATE GUIDE

enito Vigil joined an elite group of American Angus A ssociation members by attending the ninth-annual Beef Leaders Institute (BLI) in late June 2016. BLI is a complete pasture-to-plate experience for young leaders in the Angus industry that explores quality genetics, performance programs, genomic technology, herd health and much more. This year’s class consisted of 20 individuals from all areas of the country.

As both a commercial and seedstock breeder, Vigil attended BLI to better his knowledge on the entire industry. In order to raise high-quality bulls for his customers, he understands the importance of using technology and tools the American Angus Association has to offer.

“We run a cow-calf operation and just got

started with a seedstock operation last fall,” Vigil said. “I wanted to come to further my knowledge of the seedstock industry.”

The five-day event, funded by the Angus Foundation, began in Saint Joseph, Missouri, at the Association headquarters.

Participants interacted with staff and learned how each department works to serve its more than 25,000 members.

BLI toured throughout the Midwest and ended in Wooster, Ohio, at Certified Angus Beef LLC (CAB) headquarters. Along the way, participants were able to visit GeneSeek Neogen Operations in Lincoln, Nebraska; J’s Steakhouse in Fremont, Nebraska; Weborg Feeders Co. in Pender, Nebraska; Trans Ova in Sioux City, Iowa; a Tyson beef processing facility in Dakota City, Nebraska; Sysco Cleveland, Ohio; and a retail tour at Buehler’s Milltown in Wooster, Ohio.

Chelsey Smith, Association assistant director of events and education, explains that BLI targets young leaders in the Angus industry, aged 25-45, and gives them opportunities to see all sectors of the industry and how Angus plays a role in each of them.

“BLI gives Angus producers an inside look

"START WITH THE BEST - STAY WITH THE BEST" Since 1987

by Jason Huffman, Politico.com with help from Catherine Boudreau, Ian Kullgren, Jenny Hopkinson, Victoria Guida and Helena Bottemiller Evich

W

hen Kristie Middleton launched the meatless transition team at the Humane Society of the United States in 2011 she was an army of one. Now her group numbers 15, and they claim success in getting 200 school districts across the country to reduce their meat offerings, reports Pro Agriculture’s Ian Kullgren. That’s not counting hospitals, senior homes or corporate cafeterias.

Among the converts: The U.S. Coast Guard Academy, in New London, Connecticut, which has cut its meat consumption by as much as 10 percent in three years, and the Compass Group, the world’s largest food catering company, which reduced beef purchases 10 percent a year from 2015-17.

If you were wondering where the Humane Society might strike next after its big victories in the cage-free chicken battle, this is it. The playbook is similar, creating a demand for meat-free alternatives by targeting mass buyers that feed thousands of people a day.

“These institutions have massive purchasing power,” said Middleton, the Humane Society’s senior director of food policy.

“They typically will market those choices to their consumers, so they are helping with that educational component and outreach as well.”

Canada-Mexico Beef Trade Under a WorkerShortage Shadow

A

s Canada prepares for an expansion of beef exports to Mexico this fall, a trade group representative is warning that there may not be enough skilled workers thanks to an upcoming Canadian government initiative.

Canada is preparing to resume fully normalized trade of beef products with Mexico on Oct. 1, a move that is expected to provide $10 million in additional incremental sales for Canadian livestock producers and meat packers, according to a news release from the Canadian Meat Council (CMC). Mexico had suspended trade of specific beef products after the confirmation of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in Canada in 2003. The market had been closed to beef from animals 30 months or older, although Mexico continued to buy an average of $130 million of other beef products from Canada in each of the last five years, according to the organization.

In light of the trade restoration, a CMC official is warning that the industry may not be able to find enough qualified workers if new Canadian government limits on the number of temporary foreign workers take effect on soon as scheduled. Ron Davidson, CMC director of international trade, government and media relations told Farmscape.com there is “a pretty direct line between not having enough workers in the plants and decreased value-added production,” among other negative consequences for the industry.

Davidson added that if the industry doesn’t have the people, “trade agreements are of no use” and may work against Canada by forcing the country to open its markets to meat products from other foreign producers to meet consumer demand.

THE EDGE OF COMMON SENSE

by Baxter Black, BaxterBlack.com

T

here are those who say farming and ranching is a “way of life” more than it is a business. Which helps explain why young people who grow up in agriculture return to work on the farm.

Working the land holds a strong lure.

‘Course, it also explains why young people who grow up in agriculture become architects and sailors! They remember the return-on-investment and want to be as far away from a tractor and a cow as they can be!

Ray said he first became a rancher. He loved it but he found that he had to work all the bad days. They waited until it started snowing on the mountain before they gathered the cows. They spent frigid days ridin’ the high country

heat of the summer when he should have been drinkin’ iced tea in the shade. Harvesting cut into his fishing.

Then, he laid around the house all winter because it was too miserable to go outside!

Finally, Ray had a stroke of genius.

He decided to become a rancher/ chasin’ cows outta crevices and thickets, farmer combination! His brilliant solusuffering stiff fingers, frozen toes and icicles tion to be a rancher on the good days in his moustache! and farmer on the bad days!

He was often preg checking and shippin’ This arrangement gave him time to calves in a bone damp fall drizzle. He was organize his business. He eventually calvin’ in snowdrifts, chainin’ up to feed the became vertically integrated. But as he cows and choppin’ ice on Christmas prospered, his activities attracted an morning. It was followed by brandin’ in the increasing number of folks who blowin’ dirt. Then, about the time they were insisted on helping him. He couldn’t ready to turn the cows and calves out, the make a decision or a plan a move without facing a barrage of regulations weather got beautiful.

So, he became a farmer. He enjoyed administered by helpful bureaucrats, farming as much as ranching. But he found Before he could save himself, he that in farming he had to work on all the went broke. He said, he realized too good days! As soon as the birds started late, that vertical integration was just chirping, he was out in the field breakin’ a means of doing business where the ground. Planting as the springtime flowers government could stick it to you bloomed. Spraying and cultivating in the ‘standing up’!

New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association Protecting Our Ranching Way of Life

C

attle Ranching represents America’s most enduring and ionic way of life. Yet, everyday, ranches throughout New Mexico and the United States are threatened by forces as far ranging as economic uncertainly, government regulations, crippling drought and more.

That’s why New Mexico Cattle Growers’ Association (NMCGA) works tirelessly to protect and promote all ranching families.

■

NMCGA continues to advocate for livestock producers and landowners on local, state, and federal legislative and regulatory issues.

■ NMCGA has worked hard to earn high respect at the State Capital and has a highly regarded reputation with top policy makers. Through our leaders and staff you have influence in the Governor appointed Boards and Commissions.

■

NMCGA strongly supports and defends a free enterprise system, the protection of private property rights, and the protection and enhancement of our natural resources.

■ NMCGA leaders also take on key policy and decision-making roles with other national and state industry organizations, providing relevant input and testimony, influencing state and national policy development.

MY COWBOY HEROES

“L

Joe Gardner — West Texas Legend

ittle” Joe Gardner may have been the first rodeo cowboy known to endorse a saddle. An early 1900s, S.D. Myres Saddle Company catalog stated, “The Joe Gardner saddle weighs 30 pounds, has a very fancy floral carving with the trim dyed a dark chocolate. The saddle’s workmanship is from a master’s hand. The material is the finest. He who rides this saddle rides with knowledge that he has the best. The saddle is made on a 14-inch tree with a 13-inch fork.” S.D. Myres, who started his business in 1898, was a renown saddle maker of the day. The catalog also describes Joe Gardner as “One of the greatest old-time ropers. He is a princely gentleman, a real cowman and expert rider. We are happy to count him a friend.” But just who was “Little” Joe Gardner?

Some reports claim that Joseph Henry Gardner was born in Hudspeth County, Texas, near Sierra Blanca in 1879. However, according to Hudspeth Co. birth records found online: Gardner, Joseph Henry was born October 15, 1877. His father, John Gardner (1845–1926) was a Texas Ranger, Veteran of the Indian Wars, Trail Boss and Cowboy of noted fame. Little Joe was raised a cowboy from the git-go.

Joe was a bit on the small side, therefore the nickname, “Little Joe.” However, his roping accomplishments were definitely— not small. As a matter of fact, when folks talk about the “best of the best” ropers from the early part of the 1900s, there are generally three names lumped together; J. Ellison Carroll, Clay McGonagill and Joe Gardner.

What Gardner lacked in size, he made up for in horsemanship and roping skills. He came from a long line of accomplished horseman and an old-timer has been quoted as once saying, “A Gardner would feed a horse first and let his family go hungry.” Joe was also known for rarely missing with his loop.

One of the many horses Joe was wellknown for, was a gray called “Skunk.” He was considered one of the best roping horses of the day and Joe often loaned him to his friend and fellow competitor, Clay McGonagill. Although the title of “World

Champion” was ephemeral in those days, it world’s record. Following Gardner’s perforhas been reported that both Gardner and mance it was announced that he had McGonagill won World Championships on established a new record for the Cheyenne field. The figures show, however, that in Skunk.

Gardner also performed in Wild West 1916 Fred Lowry did the roping stunt in 24 Shows with notables such as Tom Mix, Will flat, and that his mark was subsequently Rogers and William S. Hart. Gardner and lowered to 21.4. That time still stands. In his McGonagill were two of a group of cowboys second trial Thursday the Texan had the recruited by Midland, Texas area cattlemen good fortune to get a steer which did not to travel to Argentina and put on a series of appear to be particularly anxious to get exhibitions there. away with the result that he had his rope Gardner was invited to the first ever round the steer within 100 yards of the Calgary Stampede in 1912. He won third corral. From then on it was only a matter of that year in steer roping. Several years later, a few short seconds until the animal was he returned to the rodeo and challenged down and its four legs bound together as anybody on the grounds to a roping match. tightly as a thirsty man’s hold on a bottle of A fellow by the name of Clem Gardner (no wet goods in this year 1 A.P.

Joe was no exception. He actually “Little Joe Gardner of Sierra Blanca will be starred in a 1920 movie called, Cowboy Jazz, one of the Texans represented at The Grand with other known rodeo greats such as International Roplng Contest this weekend Chester Beyers, Rose Henderson, Tommy at Cowboy Park.”

Kirnan and Bea Kirnan.

It is reported that Joe died of stomach On July 30, 1920, a Cheyenne, Wyoming newspaper, reporting on the Frontier Days cancer in 1921. One of the great early day activities said, “Joe Gardner of El Paso was “World Champion” ropers, and a West Texas one of the conquerors. He roped his first legend, Joseph Henry “Little Joe” Gardner steer in 25 seconds flat, and then, just to was posthumously inducted into the show that it wasn’t a matter of luck, turned National Cowboy and Western Heritage around and got a second brute in 22.4.
