Please make plans to join us again February 26, 2008, where we plan to continue the tradition. This event will again encompass our strict adherence to performance-oriented cattle that will achieve on the rail and in your herd through concentrated artificial insemination and embryo transfer work. Few operations in the nation can present you large numbers of half- and three-quarter brothers and sisters of popular genetic backgrounds for sale in one breed, yet we will offer this to you in both
Hereford and Angus genetics.
