ATTENTION PARENTS Parents interested in Cub Scouting are urged to attend a meeting at the Marshall school on the Island this Thursday night at 7:00 o'clock By DR. J.W. "PETE" PATTERSON Extension Specialist, NCSU Genetic potential is only one of three keys to successful production. Beef cattle with high genetic potential coupled with a sound feeding and management program will always result in success. With the present price of feed and labor, it is not wise to operate a cattle operation with less than the best genetics available. It then behooves every beef producer to be on the prowl for a good bull. The little four letter word, "good," placed before the word "bull" eliminates over one-half the supply before you start (all below the herd average. ) Cattlemen drive thousands of miles and spend hundreds of hours of time visiting herds, shows, and sales in search of the good bull. This is ex pensive and time consuming but all justifiable because the key to genetic improvement is bull selection. The bull represents one-half the genetic potential of the calf crop; and, in subsequent years, his daughters and granddaughters remain to pay big dividends. In short, a good herd bull never stops working for you; and for a sorry herd bull, you never get him paid for because of the loss in potential production. A test to determine a sood bull is that when bred to a group of cows they will produce offsprings that are superior in value compared to those now being produced. In the case where a good bull is now being used, the calves will be of equal value. It is more difficult to find a bull that will keep a top herd good than to find a bull that will show improvement in an average herd. With these facts in mind, when and where can the bull with the most genetic potential be purchased for the least amount of time and money? An excellent place to start looking is at any of the many central bull test stations over the country. Here you have bulls in most cases that were the top calves in their respective herds. Their 205 day weight ratios tell you where they stood in relation to the herd average. Once at the station, they compete with the top bulls from many other herds. At the end of the 140 days, you have as much in formation as can be collected to assist in making the most important decision in the cattle business, that being which bull to purchase and tum with the cow herd next March. These thirteen to seventeen month old bulls can breed six to 15 cows this spring; and by the spring of 1976, they will be ready for heavy service. They will also have completed next to their last tests. Did they sire the kind of calves their 205-day and 140-day records indicated they would? If so, you have a year's head start; and the last test is, will their daughters reproduce and milk? When this test is passed, you not only have a good bull, you then have a great bull. To find a herd bull that you can put the four letter word "good" before is a long and expensive process but one that pays big dividends for many years. North Carolina breeders can take a bid step in the riuht Tax Fund For Part-Time Workers Greensboro Many part time workers such as students who worked during last summer or during the school year may have a tax refund coming the Internal Revenue Service said today. Also af fected are other part-time workers and retirees who held short-time positions.
