Welcome to the 2015 Profit through Performance Sale. We have some different visuals for this year’s version. We welcome Jordan

and Amanda Holt as guest consignors. Jordan’s family introduced us to the merit of Chianina cattle and we are excited to have

them as part of this event. Also, we did not show at the National Western this year, as we have moved towards committing our

favorite cattle toward contemporary group participation. We are committed to providing proven quality, documenting performance,

and giving you the Hybird Advantage found in Chianina composites.

As we progress, we continually step back with you in mind. We are not just selling cattle on March 1st - we are selling results. In

order for us to have complete confidence in what we have to offer we have made a commitment, like very few in this breed, to

documenting performance. Everything sells with a registration number to hold us more accountable and ensure the accuracy of

our EPDs. Our hope is that you are more excited when you wean your first calf crop out of these bulls than when you go home with

them. While we are in the most exciting time ever in the cattle business, we want you to be prepared for tomorrow. To be prepared for a

day when not every animal is profitable; only those that excel in performance, efficiency, and longevity. For nearly 40 years now

there has been recognition for what Chianina provides, that excitement is again growing - and we think these cattle are exactly why!

Moving forward we would like to become a bigger part in helping you achieve your goals. We always enjoy learning about how you

market your cattle, make culling decisions, and how our genetics can simplify your life -- it is our prerogative to assist you in any

way we can. Our two favorite things would be showing you our cows and looking at yours.

Our bulls were weaned in early October and quickly moved to a 56 NEg diet until December 1st. They have been on a 52 since

then and will be moved to a 48 by sale day. ADG was a 105 day test from October to January. We are extremely pleased on how

they have balanced maximum performance and maintained a high level of athleticism.

We sincerely appreciate your interest,

The Melroe Family

Welcome to the Annual Profit Through Performance Bull Sale. What an exciting time to be in the cattle business. Producers are

selling feeder cattle and fat cattle at records highs, while seeing some of the cheapest feed costs in a few years. Crossbreeding and

the continental influence have never been worth more dollars than today. The use of Continental breeds on British based cows can

show an increase in weaning weights of upwards of 16%. In today’s market place that is real money. The Simmental influenced females are some of the most sought after momma cows in the industry. The value from heterosis and

hybrid vigor is one that not only the cow/calf producer captures but the feedlots as well. You will see how well the Simmental and Sim/

Angus cattle have performed at our place this fall and winter. We put the bulls on a 116 day test starting the day they were weaned.

Those numbers are depicted in the performance data labeled ADG. We develop our bulls on a high roughage diet consisting of corn

silage, alfalfa, grass hay, corn, and a protein supplement. Customer satisfaction is our number 1 priority if you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us. The bulls

will be available for viewing at their respective ranches until Feb 27th, they will then be moved to the Aberdeen Livestock Sale Barn.

Once again DVAuction will be available for the convenience of those that cannot attend. I would like to thank our cooperator herd Scott Rotert and his family from Salem,SD for the great job they do. Also a thank you to

Jordan Krueger for his help throughout the year, great neighbors are irreplaceable. My family cannot thank you enough for your trust

and faith in our program. We cherish the past business and relationships that we have developed and certainly look forward to the

new ones. Feel free to stop by and visit the ranch to view the bulls prior to the sale if you cannot make it to Aberdeen on March 1.Sincerely,Windy Creek Cattle CompanyJeremy, Bethany, Cash, and Emerson Lehrman

ADG 4.0• His first calf dam will be heard from for years to come, she was

purchased with this bull in tow. She is a descendent of the great Cara cow family.

• While his pedigree may indicate the usefulness of this 3/8 Sim bull on heifers – his stoutness and actual performance give us hesitation on that recommendation.

• Flawless build and tremendous thickness, these Chi and Sim genetics flat out work. His 127 YW EPD is 2nd highest of all registered Chi bulls born in 2014!

This chart indicates the genetic trend of the Melroe Farms females by birth year. What is unique is the trend toward lower birthweights, significantly higher growth, and most importantly maintaining our percent Chi. These genetic im-provements were accomplished with Chianina genetics, not inflated numbers that are associ-ated with the dilution of the Continental blood.
