----GENERAL INFORMA TiON----

Satellite Transmission. The 50’” Annual Four Corners Bull & Heifer Sale will be broadcast via Superior Productions satellite (coordinates: G3. channel 18). Buyers may choose to attend the sale or sit in the comfort of their own home and buy bulls simply by phoning one of the sale day phone numbers available to pre-registered buyers. The bulls and heifers will be taped on video prior to the sale and their pictures will be broadcast simultaneously as they sell with the sound being provided live from the sale site via telephone link. A preview of the bulls and heifers may be seen April 1 at 8:00 p.m. MST and again on April 3 at 11:30 a.m. MST followed by the sale at 12:30 p.m. MST. Persons interested in purchasing bulls and/or heifers via satellite need to call Dave Schafer at (888) 598-9775 to register for a buyer number. You muSf have a buyer number to purchase bulls and/or heifers over the satellite. If you do not have a satellite, try contacting a neighbor or Your local Extension agent to see if they will let You view the sale.

Terms of Sale. All lots will be sold to the highest bidder. The Auctioneer will settle any disputes as to bids by declaring all bids off and reselling the animals in question. Animals sold in this sale will be fed and cared for free of charge for twenty-four hours following the sale, but at the owner’s risk, and will be turned over to the purchaser or loaded for shipment as he may direct. A certificate of transfer and bill of sale will be furnished for each animal sold, and a registration certificate will be furnished on all registered animals by the Consignor. The Purchaser must present a bill of sale at the loading pens prior to removing the animal(s) from the premises. The terms of sale are cash and all settlements must be made at the close of the auction unless other arrangements have been made prior to the sale.

Deliverv &Insurance. Free delivery will be provided to central locations within a 500 mile radius and/or to persons with purchases of S10.000 or more. For purchases outside the 500 mile radius and under $10,000, low cost delivery will be arranged at the time of settlement. Bulls &/or heifers selling to Canada or Mexico will be delivered to the nearest port of entry at the border. Expenses and transportation beyond the border will be the responsibility of the buyer. All bulls & heifers are cleared for interstate shipment and have been tested in accordance with rules and regulations approved by the Animal Health Division (USDA) and the State of Colorado as a certified brucellosis and accredited tuberculosis free herd. Buyers requesting to have their bulls &/or heifers delivered m purchase low cost insurancefl.5% of the purchase price for 15 days coverage) at the time of settlement to protect the hauler. The same insurance is also available to all other buyers upon request and for longer coverage periods if so desired.

Breeders Guarantee. All sale bulls are guaranteed to be breeders. All bulls are subjected to a breeding soundness exam (BSE). All bulls must meet the minimum standards set by the Four Corners BCIA. Only bulls that meet this criteria are offered for sale. If for some unforseen reason a bull should prove to be a non-breeder, it should be brought to the attention of the test personnel and/or seller within 90 days after the sale. If an adjustment is to be made, the Four Corners BCIA Cooperator m be provided with a certificate from a veterinarian stating the problem with the bull.

Structural Soundness Exam. All sale bulls will be subjected to a comprehensive structural soundness exam. The bulls have been managed and developed in such a way as to minimize feet and leg problems and to insure their future soundness. However, despite our best efforts, some bulls leave something to be desired when it comes to feet, legs and structural soundness. Therefore, instead of trimming feet or utilizing other methods to cover up unsoundness, the bulls will be critically analyzed by two qualified cattlemen and a veterinarian for structural soundness. Structurally unsound bulls will be removed from the sale.

Heatth Program. All bulls & heifers were tested for tuberculosis end brucellosis upon arrival at the test center. All bulls & heifers were treated with Ivermectin-F for internal and external parasites. All bulls have been inoculated with IBR, BVD, BRSV, PI,, 7-Way Clostridia, and H. Somnus vaccine. All heifers have been vaccinated for brucellosis and tested for pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), reproductive tract score (RTSI and pelvic measurements. All bulls have been tested for breeding soundness, pelvic measurements and PAP. Measurements from these tests are provided in the catalog. All sale bulls have been tested for Trichomoniasis IT&h) and clawed for shipment into Utah.

Obliaation. It shall be expressly understood that the sponsors of this sale, Colorado State University-San Juan Basin Research Center and Four Corners BCIA, act only as agents for the consignors and assume no liability, legal or otherwise. All guarantees shall constitute a contract between the Consignor and the Purchaser of each lot.

Sealed Bids. Sealed bids for any of the bulls or heifers may be handled through Dave Schafer, San Juan Basin Research Center (970-385-4574).

Ranchers from the Four Corners area and surrounding western states have been testing bulls cooperatively with Colorado State University’s San Juan Basin Research Center since 1950. Colorado State University began performance testing in 1949 end opened the test to area ranchers in 1950. In 1975, a forty pen bull testing facility was built by the Cooperators to test over 200 bulls annually.

The Four Corners Bull Test offers purebred and commercial cattlemen the opportunity to purchase bulls with good genetics that will perform on mountain ranches. Bulls purchased from this test have greatly influenced the genetics of herds in Colorado and neighboring states. Ranchers who have purchased Four Corners performance-tested bulls for more than 10 years have reported 100-200 pound increases in weaning and yearling weights.

The elevation of the Four Corners Bull Test is 7,600 feet making it the nation’s only high mountain bull test. Many of the cooperators as well as buyers run their cattle at high elevations and are concerned about costly losses to brisket disease (high altitude disease). Research at Colorado State University has shown that pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) is a very good indicator of brisket disease susceptibility. Additionally, research has shown that differences in PAP values are highly heritable; therefore, selection for lower PAP values can lower the incidence of brisket disease. PAP information is provided in the catalog.

---PERFORMANCE TESTING PROCEDURES---

The bulls were delivered to the test facility on October 19, 1998. Following a 21 day adjustment period, the bulls were weighed on the 112 day test November 9, 1998. Bulls were weighed at 28, 56, 84, and 112 days with 2.day weights taken for the initial and 112-day periods. Bulls were penned in groups of 3 to 6 bulls per pen.

Bulls were fed twice daily, a mixture of ground alfalfa/grass hay (65%). corn and oats (35%). and a protein supplement. The feed was weighed to each pen. Feed conversion was calculated for the group of bulls in each pen. Feed efficiency values were adjusted to a common body weight as recommended by the Beef Improvement Federation.

A HUGE THANK YOU to Robert Weitzel for feeding &caring for the bulls &to the San Juan Basin Research Center Crew IDave Schafer, Gary Conrad, Tom Campion, Ronda Shockley, Dan Seizer, L ynell Prigge, Beth La Shell & Rena Bacus) for their hard work in getting things ready for the sale. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!

SPECIAL THANKS to Beth LaShelI, the La Plats County 4-H Livestock Judging Team & their parents for clipping & washing the bulls. Your hard work is VERY much appreciated. THANKS also to Mountain Shadows 4-H Club for Your efforts.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS & ABBREVIATIONS

1 I2 Dav Weight (I 12 DAY WT) - Weight taken at the end of the 112 day test. This weight (s used as the bulls actual Yearling weight and for calculating adjusted yearling weight.

Accuracy (ACC) - Correlation between an animal’s unknown actual breeding value and a calculated estimated breeding value.

Actual Weanina Weiaht (ACT WW) - Weight takenat the time the calf is removed from the cow and weaned.

Adiusted Hb Heiaht (ADJ HIP HT) - Height of the animal at the hips adjusted to 365 days of age using the following formula (Note: The value 0.025 is used in the same formulas to adjust heifers hip heights).

Under 365 davs in acre: Actual Hip Ht. + (Number of days under 365 x 0.033) Over 365 davs in aae: Actual Hip Ht. - (Number of days over 365 x 0.025)

Adiusted Pelvic Area (ADJ PELV AREA) - Obtained by multiplying the height and width measurements of the pelvic opening and adjusting to a common age of 365 days. Area is measured in square centimeters (cm2). Pelvic area has been shown to influence calving difficulty in first-calf heifers. The following formulas are used to adjust pelvic openings for males and females:

Males: Actual Pelvic Area + .25(365 - actual age) Females: Actual Pelvic Area + .27(365 - actual age)

Adiusted Weanina Weiaht (ADJ WW) - An unshrunk, off-the-cow weight adjusted to 205 days of age and to a mature dam age equivalence.

(Actual Weaning Wt. - Birth Weight)

x 205 + Birth Wt. + Age of Dam Adjustment Age at weaning

Adikted Yearlina Weiaht (ADJ YWI - An unshrunk weight adjusted to 365 days of age and for age of dam. The following formula is used:

(Actual Yearling Wt. - Actual Weaning Wt.)

x 160 + Adjusted Weaning Weight Number of days between the two weights

Averaae Dailv Gain (ADG) - Measurement of daily body weight change in an animal on a feed test.

Beef lmwovement Federation (BIF) - A federation of organizations, businesses, and individuals interested or involved in performance evaluation of beef cattle. The purposes of BIF are to bring about uniformity of procedures, development of programs, cooperation among interested entities, education of its members and the ultimate consumers of performance evaluation methods, and to build confidence of the beef industry in the principles and potentials of performance testing.

Birth Weiaht (BW) The weight of a calf taken within 24 hours after birth. Heavy birth weights tend to be correlated with calving problems, but the conformation of the calf and the cow are contributing factors.

Breedina Soundness Exam (BSE) - Includes an internal and external physical evaluation and an evaluation of a bull’s semen for quality and quantity. A bull must meet certain criteria to be declared a satisfactory breeder.

Expected Proaenv Difference (EPD) - The difference in performance to be expected from future progeny of a parent, compared with that expected from future progeny of all other parents evaluated in the analysis when bred to equal mates. EPD is an estimate based on progeny testing and is equal to one-half the estimate of breeding value obtainable from the progeny test records. EPDs for growth traits are generally expressed in pounds, either as a plus difference or minus difference from the population average. EPDs are generally reported in the units of measure of the trait, (e.g., pounds, cm, cm’, percent, etc.).

Feed Conversion (FEED CONVI - Also referred to as feed efficiency, this is a measure of units of feed consumed per unit of weight gained. Also the production (meat, milk) per unit of feed consumed.

Frame Score IFR SC) A score based on the actual measurement of hip height that was calculated according to BIF guldelines using the following formula:

Frame Score = -1 1.548 + .487B*(hip ht) - .0289*(days of age) + .00001947*(days of age? + .0000334*Ihip ht)“(days of age).

Initial Weiqht (INIT WT) Weight of the animal at the beginning of the performance test.

Maternal Value of Dauqhters-Milk (MK) This value relates to those traits that are maternally influenced and expressed only by the female, e.g., milk production. It is the difference in performance expected from future progeny of daughters of the parent in question as compared to other parents evaluated in the analysis. Both the sire and dam transmit genes for maternal traits to their female progeny. These daughters express their full breeding value (2 x their EPD) for the maternal trait.

Maternal Value of Dawhters-Wean WT (TM) - This value is calculated for traits that are bath directly and maternally determined, such as weaning weight. It is the difference in total performance expected from the future progeny from daughters of the parent in question due to that parent’s genetic contribution to its daughters. It is calculated as one-half the direct EPD value plus the maternal EPD value. The EPD value of the parent predicts the performance of its grand- progeny.

Most Probable Producina Ability IMPPA) - An estimate of cows’s future productivity for a trait (such as progeny weaning weight ratio) based on her past productivity. For example, a cow’s MPPA for weaning ratio is calculated from the cow’s average progeny weaning ratio, the number of her progeny with weaning records, and the repeatability of weaning weight.

Number of Contemwrarias IN0 CONT) - The number of animals of similar breed, sex, and age, against which an animal was compared. in performance tests. The greater the number of contemporaries, the greater the accuracy of comparisons.

Percent Inbreeding (PCT INB) - Percent of loci that have genes identical by descent (homozygous).

Pulmonarv Arterial Pressure IPAP) - Obtained by a procedure called “right heart catheterization”, this test is the best indicator to date for identifying animals predisposed to Brisket Disease. The test is not 100 percent and should be used as such. Generally, cattle with PAP values greater than 50 are considered high and cattlemen should be cautious of using them at high elevations.

RaDrOdUCtiVa Tract Score iRTSl - Score used to estimate sexual maturity (puberty) in heifers via rectal palpation of the uterine horns and ovaries. The score ranges from 1 to 5. A RTS of 1 = an infantile tract & not cycling; 2 = an infantile tract with small follicles & not cycling; 3 = on the verge of cycling, slight uterine tone, follicles present; 4 = cycling heifers, good uterine tone & size, and follicular growth; 5 = cycling heifers with palpable corpus luteum.

Scrotal Circumference (SC1 - A measure of testes size obtained by measuring the distance around the testicles in the scrotum with a circular tape. Related to semen producing capacity and age at puberty of female sibs and progeny.

Total Maternal (TM) - see Maternal Value of Daughters-WEAN WT.

Weiqht DW dav of aaa (WDA) - Weight of an individual divided by the individual’s age in days.

Weight Ratio IRAT) In beef cattle evaluations, weight ratios refer to the weight of en individual animal relative to the average of all animals in the same group. An average ratio is 100 so if an animal has a ratio of 105 he is 5% above the average and if an animal has a ratio of 95 he is 5% below the average. Ratios are calculated using the following formula:

Individual record

x 100. Average of animals in group

AUCTION - SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1999 12:30 p.m.

Performance of Cooperator end Experiment Station Purebred and Composite Bulls

Performance Information: The information in the following section was generated from the bulls on the 112 day performance test. Weaning weight was adjusted to 205 days of age and for age of dam according to each breed organization’s standard adjustments. Adjusted weaning weights and ratios were generally supplied by the cooperators. Adjusted yearling weight was computed as adjusted weaning weight plus average daily gain from weaning to the 112 day test weight multiplied by 160. Average daily gain ratios were computed using the bull’s record divided by the average of the bulls of the same breed group, multiplied by 100. Breed average daily gains are presented below. Because of pre-test differences between ranches, critical comparisons should be made using the information generated since the bulls began the 112 day test. All bulls listed in the catalog will sell provided no problems arise between the printing of this catalog and sale day.

Sale Order: The bulls are listed in sale order. An index can be found on page 47. The breeds will be rotated through the sale order and only a few will sell at a time instead of all of one breed es in years past. For example, there are 22 Red Angus, 24 Angus and 70 Herefords. We will sell the first 25% of each breed in rotation. So, 5 Red Angus will sell, then 6 Angus, followed by 17Herefords and the remaining breeds. Then we will repeat the process and sell the second 25% of each breed and continue until all bulls have passed through the sale ring. The sale order of the breeds will be: Red Angus, Angus, Hereford, Gelbvieh, Maine Anjou, Red Brangus and System 1 Composites.

Calvina Ease Bulls (CE): Calving ease bulls are marked with a “I ” in the upper right hand corner of the bull’s information box. Calving ease bulls were selected using actual birth and birth weight EPD.

Pulmonary Arterial Pressure (PAP): Obtained by a procedure called “right heart catheterization”, this test is the best indicator to date for identifying animals predisposed to Brisket Disease (High Altitude Disease). The test is not 100 percent accurate and should be used as such. Generally, cattle with PAP values greater than 50 are considered high and cattlemen should be cautious of using them at elevations above 7000 feet. Cattlemen with ranches at less than 5000 feet elevation do not need to be concerned with the PAP value unless they are selling breeding stock to cattlemen at high elevations. Bulls with PAP values greater than 50 are best suited for operations at less than 5000 feet elevation.

Expected Proqenv Differences (EPDs): The EPDs presented in the following section were obtained from their respective breed associations. EPDs are the expected differences (expressed in pounds) in performance of a sire’s progeny when compared to fixed base. While EPDs for birth, weaning and yearling weights refer to the progeny of sires, the maternal values of milk and weaning weight refer to how we expect progeny of daughters to perform. The accuracy value is a measure of reliability for the corresponding EPD. They range from 0 to 1 and are calculated according to Beef Improvement Federation Guidelines. The higher the value, the more confidence we have that the sire’s EPD will not change much with additional progeny. In general, the more information on a sire, the higher the accuracy value. Because these bulls are young, the EPDs presented are pedigree estimates (or back solutions) and would have very low accuracies. Additionally, EPDs cannot be compared across breeds. Each breed association is responsible for producing its’ own sire summery and therefore, different methods and data sets are used. The following EPD estimates are the best available for young bulls.

Tybar progeny are bred to produce calves that are born with NO HELP and

increase profitability.

Tybar Angus Ranch personnel have over 47 years experience breeding Angus

cattle, 18 years of performance data, and 14 years of PAP scores which makes

us a leader in PAP testing and, as a result, Brisket Disease Prevention.

FOUR CORNERS HEIFER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

The Four Corners Heifer Development Program was initiated last year in an effort to offer breeders a place to develop and market their replacement heifers. There is no requirement for the participating breeders to sell their heifers. They may simply choose to have their heifers developed and then take them home. The program was designed to develop heifers not to test them. Therefore, you will not find any gain information for any of the heifers listed in the catalog. The heifers were not fed for maximum gain. The heifers were fed a ration consisting of Gro-Gest 868 Pellets, corn and alfalfa/grass hay. The heifers were fed to gain 2 Ibs/day. These heifers will be ready to take home and breed at the time of sale. Pulmonary Arterial Pressures (PAP), reproductive tract scores (RTS), and pelvic areas are provided on each of the heifers.

The heifers will be offered for sale immediately after all the bulls pass through the sale ring. The heifers will be sold by breed in the order they are listed and in groups according to the owners specifications. This means an owner may sell his/her heifers as a group or offer the buyer choice of on or more. All heifers are being sold as open and ready to breed. All heifers listed will sell provided no problems arise between the printing of the sale catalog and sale day.
