This is the 8th Annual Prairie Distinction sale and again, the quality on offer is very impressive. The four consignors have put together a great group of bulls from top to bottom. These breeders are here for the long haul and will work to provide you with bulls that will last. The coming two-year old bulls in the sale are designed to be that and are not leftovers. Last year a spring storm hampered attendance at this event which resulted in some very reasonable buying. If you are looking for quality two-year old and yearling bulls, we encourage you to come to have a look. We welcome everyone to come for lunch, and select from a great set of bulls, from some very committed producers, who have been breeding Charolais for many years. There are bulls here that will work in all segments of the industry, which is proven by the many repeat customers participating. There are white, tan, and red factor bulls, with quality in all colours. From bulls that would work in the heifer pen, to power bulls that will give you as much performance as you would like, they are here. This past fall, we saw the premium paid for the Charcross calves as consistently high as it has ever been in the auction markets. Crossbreeding is essential to maximize profits in the cattle business and these bulls will give you the added performance, meat, and hair, that will put your calves in the top cut pen come sale time. Feel free to give the consignors a call or stop to have a visit with them before sale day, if you want a little extra time to meet the breeders and see their operations. Again, this year the sale will be broadcast live on the internet at By Livestock Online. We hope you can join us in Neepawa for the sale, but if you can’t make the sale, you can view and bid online. Please register early if you are going to take advantage of this service. Just go to www.bylivestock.com and follow the prompts. Videos of the bulls are also available there. The bulls will be available for viewing the day before and the morning of the sale, for your convenience. If Jon, Candace, or I can be of any assistance before the sale or on sale day, please don’t hesitate to give us a call. We would be happy to find a bull that is right for your program and make your bull buying experience a pleasant one. Sincerely, Helge & Candace By Jon & Sarah Wright 2

R & G MCDONALD LIVESTOCK • LOTS 1-12 Welcome to the 8th Annual Prairie Distinction Bull Sale. We want to give a big Thank You to all our past customers because without you, we would not be able to continue to do this. This year will be 40 years of raising Purebred Charolais cattle between my late father (J. Allan McDonald who passed in November) and myself. It was through him I gained an appreciation for the Charolais breed/genetics, and why I’ve continued on raising Purebred Charolais cattle. We are consigning 12 yearlings this year, all are polled and most are homozygous polled. The bulls have been developed on a Masterfeeds grower pellet, corn silage, grass hay and mineral; all their shots are up to date. They are quiet, thick, deep, good haired and free moving bulls. We have a bull for any need you have. Feel free to give me a call with any questions. Videos of the bulls will be online, or you are welcome to come and view the bulls before the sale. Ron & Gail R & G McDonald Livestock

CROCUS VALLEY FARMS LTD. • LOTS 13-15 Welcome to the Prairie Distinction Bull Sale. This is our first year consigning bulls to the sale. We farm alongside my parents, on our commercial cattle and grain farm four miles south of Killarney. My wife and I have been raising purebred bulls for three years now. When we started our purebred herd, we set out to purchase high quality females to start the foundation. The three bulls we have in the sale this year represent what we are setting out to achieve with our bulls. They are deep, quiet, heavy haired and good footed. They have been on a bull grower oat ration through Trouw Nutrition and free choice, full season cover crop bales. Please feel free to stop by the farm anytime for a tour of the bull pen. Thanks, Curtis and Erika Lovett & Family

JOHNSTON CHAROLAIS • LOTS 16-27 We have selected herdbulls that offer a balance of calving ease, growth, the right type and maternal traits. We calve on grass later in spring so these guys are developed gently over the 20 months. We have fed these bulls so that in June when they went to native grass pasture at 11 to 14 months of age, they weighed on average 1200 lb. They stayed on that native grass pasture til mid October and started to be stepped on to their TMR final ration mid November. Our sale bulls are developed as breeding stock and not a feedlot animal. Doing so, they will stand up as well as any bull could expect to in a large type pasture scenario, where a large percentage of ours end up. We encourage you to call ahead, come inspect the bulls prior, as we will assist you in selecting the right bull for your operation. Johnston Charolais reserves the right to draw semen on these bulls for in-herd use at our expense and your convenience. • Lead-off and high seller at 2019 CK Sparrow Farms Bull Sale.
• We look hard at a cow family before we buy. • Sparrows Robert’s dam became a Dam of Distinction with her first 5 calves. This large, beautiful Lanza was the icing to the cake.
• Co-owned with Sliding Hills Charolais. Parker has been successfully used on heifers and cows. • Represents our vision of the modern charolais... calvability, growth, feedlot performance and a producer of females that any maternal breed would be jealous of.

This guy is a bull that would be awesome on heifers, with a smaller frame size allowing to use him for more years on heifers. The 1D sons seem to calve well and have calf vigour second to none. They all fit a hands off operation.

COWMAN FORMULA
Increase in pounds per calf from a top-performance bull x number of cows bred to him per year x no of years to keep the bull x expected selling price of calves = Additional dollars you can pay for a better bull Example: A bull who will add 30 lb to the weaning weight of each of his calves mated to 25 cows per year for 4 years and you sell the calves for $1.50 per pound. 30 x 25 = 750 x 4 = 3000 x $1.50 = $4,500 This bull is worth $4,500 more than the average bull who will keep your weaning weights the same. Take this formula and put your own figures in and see what you can afford to pay. This equation does not consider the increase in value due to calving ease, higher quality replacement heifers, yearling growth, feedlot gain and improved carcass quality.
