Moss Brothers Breed
Champion Herd Sires !
HENDERSON, N. C. - When a
North Carolina cattle grower
sells a Texas rancher a bull
to upgrade his herd, It must be
a lot of bull.
It Is.
Producing top rated herd
sires Is the business of Roger
and Clifton Moss, and cattle
men from North Carolina to
Nebraska and from Florida to
Texas are finding that It Is good
business to buy Dulls from the
Moss stock Farm.
Polled Herefords are the
Moss Brothers' stock In trade,
and each year they market some
20 young male specimens at
their 360-acre spread, located
a few miles east of Henderson -1
In Vance County.
For their efforts the Moss
Brothers can show a truckful
of blue ribbons and press clip
pings, all attesting the prize
winning caliber or their hand
some red and white animals.
BCIA AWARDS
For three consecutive years,
1962-64, the Moss Brothers'
herds won the N. C. Beef Cat
tle Improvement Association's
high Index award. The follow
ing year, 1965, their number
one bull won the BCIA seven
state Southern region award as
sire of the year In the Virginia
Hereford Association annual a
wards.
The Moss Brothers credit
much of their success to North
Carolina's performance testing
program for herd sires. They
were among the first to enroll
when the program was launched
ten years ago.
Tney are especially proud
of the fact that out of 11 new
performance tested bulls bought
during 1966 by neighboring far
mers In their home county to up
grade local herds, three came
from the Moss Stock Farm.
The performance testing in
dex, like that of the BCIA,
rates a bull according to the
performance of his offspring.
The performance index Includes
such factors as type and rate
of weight gain.
THE Moss Brothers' herds
that won the three N. C. BCIA
awards showed an average In
dex of 140-145, which know
ledgeable cattlemen will recog
nize as approaching perfection.
SIRE OF THE YEAR
The 1965 BCIA regional award
as sire of the year went to
their prize bull. GHR Mesa Re
turn 437, for siring at least
20 calves that together achieved
the highest average Index of all r
herds In the seven-state sou- )
them region.
Mesa Return, obtained by the t
Moss Brothers from Gallihar
Hereford Ranch at Whitney, 8
Tex., Is one of three registered '
Polled Hereford sires on the
Moss Stock Farm.
Another Is a son of Mesa E
Return that resulted from an *
exceptionally successful breed- '
Ing of the senior champion bull '
to a brood cow In the Moss "
Brothers' herd, while the bro
thers put both bulls--father and g
son?to stud, they are careful y
not to Interbreed. 1
Rounding out the trio Is HDR h
Royal Domino 61, a regal ani- f
mal which the brothers bought tl
from Hull-Dobbs Ranch at Walls h
Mississippi.
The three bulls are bred each p
year to about 50 cows. This pro- a
duces a crop of calves that In a
an average year will yield at q
least 20 bulls. i
PREMIUM HEIFERS *
The Moss Brothers select
nost of their best heifers each
'ear and keep them as brood
:ows; the rest they sell as ,
leef cattle. (
They sell their bulls at prices ,
;enerally related to per
ormance testing achievements.
Roger and Clifton Moss start
d In the cattle business In 1949.
iut farming was nothing new to
hem then. They grew up on a
arm and studied vocational
grlculture at nearby Zeb Vance
lgh school.
To the Moss Brothers, cattle
rowing Is a labor of love as
tell as a profitable business
"his Is evident In the way they
andle their cattle--and In the
act that for personal pleasure
hey breed Palomino quarter
orses.
Confident, successful, enter
rlslng, Roger and Clifton Moss
,re well cast In their roles
s veteran cattlemen who are
uletly breathing vigorous life v
nto a business the potential c
aqe of which has barely been r
apped In the Tar Heel State. t
