Happy New Year folks!! We hope everyone had a wonderful, safe holiday season! 2020 is off to a great start, we can’t believe January is over already!! Hats off to those whose calving barns were busting at the seams during that frigid spell, but hey, only 2 more months till Spring!!! We would like to send out belated birthday wishes to a few of our friends who celebrated milestones lately- Happy 40th birthday to both Angela Thorgilsson, Triple T Diamond Simmentals, Lundar, MB and Scott Harvie, Harvie Crest Cattle Co., Olds, AB; and a Happy 75th Birthday to Yvonne Dequier, Triple R Simmentals, Haywood, MB. Congratulations folks! We would like to send our deepest sympathies to Lynne Anderson, Cherry Creek Farms, Boissevain, MB and her family on the passing of her husband, Ed Anderson. Ed was a tireless promoter of the Simmental breed for many years and was also a distinguished member of the Boissevain community, having served as Mayor for several years. Ed will be missed by many, our thoughts are with his family during these difficult days ahead. We also send our thoughts and prayers to the Neitz family, EDN Simmentals, Maple Creek,SK on the passing of Ernest Neitz in December. Ernest was a fine cattleman and a joy to be around, he will be misssed by many that knew him. With bull sale season just around the corner, the mailboxes will soon be flooded with catalogues with bulls for sale from coast to coast. Study those pedigrees, mark your books well, there will be lots to choose from, so choose wisely! Although the markets haven’t been as strong as past years, the demand for good Simmental bulls is still high, so bid with confidence boys, and get r done! That’s all for now folks, as we gear up for another run of sales, here’s hoping the prices stay steady, and the roads stay dry! See you at the next one! John & Joanne

Keystone Simmental Association Commercial Producer Of The Year
My wife Dale, myself, and our son Cody and his wife Josie, run cows along the Stoney Creek half way between Reston and Sinclair, Manitoba. Our daughter Jessica lives on the farm and helps out when she can. Up until this year we had two herds, a January - February calving herd and an April - May calving herd. We decided back in March to sell the spring calving herd of 180 cows due to the increase in seeded acres. We will now be calving around 260 head in January February of 2020.
In 1974, I bought 3 Charolais bred heifers from my Uncle John Milliken and that winter a neighbor Dan Gray taught me how to pull calves. At 16 years old my Dad, who didn’t really enjoy cattle, sold me his cows. He only had cows because we had Stoney Creek pasture that wasn’t good for anything else. I learnt a lot about cattle helping a good friend Tim Jackson and his Dad Ben. The thinking back then was the bigger the better. If a calf didn’t weigh 120 pounds plus it wasn’t going to be much of a calf. We ran a white herd till 1991 when we started buying Simmental bred heifers from Jim Pringle of Reston, MB. We have bought many heifers, bred cows, and Simmental bulls from a lot of people over the years. We also raise and breed our own heifers. In the last ten years most of our bred heifers and bulls have come from Kevin Granger and Cody and Josie have added to their herd through Josie’s Dad, Gerry Bertholet. We work hard to have good utters, feet and attitudes. I try to keep my herd red. Cody and Josie have both red and black Simmentals. All of our cows are probably purebred, but we don’t paper them. Our January- February calves sell the last week in September. We have always had a 60 day breeding period until this year we lengthened it out to 75 days. Weaning weights are very important and we try to buy bulls that will accomplish this through genetics, as we do not creep feed our calves. We have been growing corn the last seven years. We silage corn and oats. It is a big bill every year but it sure puts up a lot of good quality feed in a hurry, and the cows love it. Cody and Josie, Dale and I are honoured to have been acknowledged as Commercial Breeder of the year by the Keystone Konnection Association. Our family has been farming in the Pipestone Municipality since 1882. We are one of the oldest farming families in this area and it is our hope that our grandsons, Cal and Rhett, will someday run cattle along the Stoney Creek.
