Topeka Farm Show
The 2010 Topeka Farm Show will celebrate its 21th Anniversary January 5th, 6th, & 7th. The 1989 first year show has grown to the use of six buildings, over three hundred exhibiting companies, five hundred fifty booths and added attractions that include a Purebred Cattle Expo, Daily Horsemanship Clinics, and leadership seminars produced daily by the Shawnee County Extension and K-State University. Free parking, free admission, free health care programs and events for the entire family make this show one of a kind attracting over thirty thousand attendees each year.

A primary focus of the Topeka Farm Show has been to bring attendees that have a full-time stake in agriculture to meet and visit with exhibiting companies. This has been accomplished in a high degree as each year booth space is sold out with numerous companies on the waiting list.

A long-term partnership with the High Plains Journal to publish the official show guide, and a direct mail campaign to their 40,000-plus readership, has led to the Topeka Farm Show being the leading show in the Midwest. 580 AM WIBW Radio and Farm Director Kelly Lenz are long time sponsors and supporters of each Topeka Farm Show and are “live” each day at the show. Attendees can get the latest information daily on the show by dialing to AM 580 on their radios.

The Topeka Farm Show continues each year to recognize the needs of the exhibitors and attendees and expands its format to include those needs. The 2010 Topeka Farm Show along with future shows will continue to offer the "appeal" that only farm shows can give. For more information go to: http://www.tradexpos.com/topeka/

Craig Cameron's Horsemanship Demonstration will be held daily during the three-day 2010 Topeka Farm Show:
               Tuesday, January 5th 12:30 p.m. & 3:30 p.m.
               Wednesday, January 6th, 1 p.m. & 6:00 p.m.
               Thursday, January 7th 11:30 a.m. & 2:30 p.m.
Craig's 60- to 90-minute clinics are packed with vital information that any horse person will value. A question and answer session is held at the end of each demo plus Craig is on hand throughout the three-day event to answer your questions.

Stop by the WIBW booth and register to win a Stetson hat from Roy Frey Western! While in town for the Farm Show, stop by Roy Frey Western store and take advantage of the winter clearance specials.

Western Warm
Keep your feet western warm this winter with insulated and water proof boots from Ariat and Muck Boot Companies. These boots are comfortable, dry and light weight. While you are at Roy Frey's get a pair of Heatrac gloves for only $14.99 – what the feedlot cowboys wear to keep their hands warm! Protect your neck and face with a colorful wild rag. Roy Frey Western has winter vests and jackets for dress or chores.

Muck boots are lightweight, flexible, buoyant and waterproof top to bottom. The lining provides superior comfort and breathability by wicking away humidity and perspiration. Getting the boots on and off is hands free – easy! CR-foam stretches so the boots are easy to get into and the 10mn kick rim or pull tab makes them easy to take off. There is added support and slipper-soft molded comfort in the foot-bed. The rubber shell and nylon upper clean up with a spray of water or gentle scrubbing. Vulcanization binds the rubber pieces together to form a lightweight durable shell. Nothing compares to the comfort and fit of the Original Muck Boot CompanyTM brand waterproof footwear. But don’t take our word for it – come try one on!

Tooled Leather Pistol Cases

Timber Creek Farm – Animal Assisted Therapy Inc.
Roy Frey Western has partnered with Timber Creek Farms, an animal assisted therapy program, which will be located on 22 acres near the intersection of SW Burlingame Rd and SW 57th St., Topeka, KS. Dewayne has joined the board of directors for this worthy program and is involved in the planning and fund raising efforts currently underway. Ron Taylor is the visionary force behind Timber Creek Farms and one of Roy Frey Western's customers and friends. Like Dewayne, Ron is a long time military veteran who continues to look for ways to serve his community. The mission of Timber Creek Farms is to improve the lives of the special needs community by providing empowering activities designed to assist in breaking through the cognitive and emotional barriers through the human-animal bond.

Our immediate goal is to raise $600,000 to install a beautiful one and a half story post and beam barn which will house stables and offices for the program. Therapeutic riding instruction will take place in a climate controlled, tension fabric structure which will provide an efficient, naturally lit arena for year-round use in the program.

Timber Creek Farms, staff and volunteers will pursue all certifications granted by the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) in order to provide the most effective animal assisted therapy possible. In addition to serving the local special needs community, Timber Creek Farms is also developing contacts with disabled military veterans, through the Veterans Administration Hospital staff, in order to serve the needs of our wounded warriors.

If you are interested in learning more about Timber Creek Farms or in helping in any way to make this program successful, please visit with Dewayne or Jo the next time you are in the store or call us at 785-232-0579.

Montana Silversmith's Steve Miller Signature Collection Statue

His New Winchester
The Plains Indian particularly, became great horsemen, in a relatively short period of time. They did not know of horses until the early 1700's when they were brought up from Southern tribes and Spanish explorers, to be traded for fine furs and hides grown thick and long by cold northern winters. The Indians called them many names such as, "Elk Dog" or in Sioux, the largest most formidable tribe on the Plains, Shunka Wa Kan, "Dog God", as they had no native word for horse.
 
Within a few short years, these people of the Great Plains found that with the horse they could become a mobile and wealthy society. Hunting buffalo became much easier, even sport, and moving larger and larger lodges and accumulating more possessions was now possible. They cherished their horses and prided themselves in raising good, strong animals that could survive on the prairie year round, wintering on dry grass and cotton wood bark. Indian horses were known for their unbelievable endurance and stamina. Plains Indians became the greatest horsemen in the world, the "Cossacks of the Plains", the "greatest light cavalry in the world", they rode every day, sometimes continuously, eating, and even sleeping on horseback.

Horse stealing raids and warfare among tribes became more common and more intense, and warrior societies grew strong and formidable. They hunted for trade hides, and bartered for weapons and goods, and traveled great distances to trading posts and forts, all the while, unwittingly, inviting more and more incursion by the foreigners with the pale skin.

In "His New Winchester" I have sought to capture the tremendous horsemanship of these young men, and the value of the modern weapons of the white men, that introduced and symbolized a new and deadly form of warfare.

Sittin' Pretty
In the early days of America and the west, kids grew up fast, working and playing hard. Most families were traditional, with boys and girls having fairly defined roles. But there were always the exception and they were the ones that come down to us in cowboy and cowgirl legend.

Some girls did not take to the cooking and tending life expected of them. They loved the outdoors, the work and most of all, the horses. There is no stronger bond than when a girl takes to horses, and some of them became the greatest horsewoman in the west, working Wild West shows, rodeos, roundups, and showing up the men on more than one occasion.

That was a hard plug to swallow for most men in those days, but it did not keep some pretty ladies from putting on a riding skirt, high heeled boots, and a pair of spurs and peelin' the hide off an outlaw bronc. When a pretty young lady rode one, it was a thing of beauty, the harder he bucked and the better she rode the prettier she got, she was truly "Sittin’ Pretty".

The inspiration for this sculpture came from my wife who sets a horse real pretty, but I made it for all horsewomen, and all the men who love them.

When a Woman Knew Her Place
...And it covered 10,000 acres

When settlers moved west to claim the land that the rail roads, the army, and the buffalo men, had opened up on the American frontier, they brought their women and children with them. It was a dangerous land, inhabited by strange and wild animals, Indians who also claimed and loved the land, deadly storms, unbelievably hot dry summers, and cold, bone chilling winters.
 
Even in areas where the weather was more gentile, the conditions were tough. Men and women worked together for everything they got from the land, whether raising cattle or truck. It was all manual labor, from sun up until sundown, seven days a week.

Town was usually miles if not days away, and doctors were rare and often too far away to be of help in real emergencies.

Men died young of hard work or disease or both. Many times a young woman would find herself alone, to try to make the dream they shared live on. Many women returned east, or to town, but many also stayed. They set their jaw against all odds, and made the land give up its bounty. Many found their dreams and prospered and held thousands of acres and wielded much power at a time when they were supposed to be quiet and meek.

But these were the woman of the west, the ancestors of the strong, beautiful, independent woman all of us who cherish the west and its lifestyle admire and love, these are our mothers, our sisters and our wives. These were the women who knew their place, every acre of it. In this work I salute, and pay homage to the kind of women who made the west, not the west of destination, but the west of legend.

Daily presentations by world-class clinicians and trainers will feature Ken McNabb presenting Discovering the Horseman Within; Kay Meredith schooling riders in Dressage; Al Dunning teaching Reining and Cutting; Linda Allen conducting Hunt Seat & Jumping clinics; and Scot Hansen with Trail Riding and Horse Training tips.

Spectators can root for their favorite competitors in these fast paced, high action events that will test the training, skills and athletic abilities of horses and riders.

"EquiFest of Kansas is a unique three day event celebrating the diversity of horses", said Pattie Stalder, Administrator of Kansas Horse Council. This is great family entertainment that puts a variety of breeds and clinicians under one roof to entertain and inform. You certainly don't have to own a horse to enjoy EquiFest!"

The horse festival is loaded with a wide variety of activities for horse lovers, including daily demonstrations, lectures, workshops, a fashion show for equine enthusiasts, the Stallion Review, Breed Demonstrations, equine entertainment and a Judging Contest.

Scouts will have an opportunity to earn their Junior Horse Fan Badge, through a series of demonstrations, lectures and special activities, held Saturday morning at EquiFest.
 
Horse enthusiasts can take in the giant equine trade show at EquiFest, with commercial equine shopping booths selling tack, horse trailers, feed, gifts, home décor items, clothing, equipment, and information from breed and service organizations, plus much more!

Some openings for EquiFest participants are still available, with space for stallions at the Stallion Review, horses for the Breed Demonstrations, and trade show booth space available for vendors who sell horse-related products. In addition, there are volunteer opportunities to help during the event.

Advertising opportunities are also available in the EquiFest program for horse groups and businesses of all sizes. Display ads or listings in the Equine Service Directory are offered within the printed program. The EquiFest program is distributed, at no charge, to EquiFest attendees and participants.

AG am in Kansas– Channel 13 WIBW – 4:30 am – New Show
Watch for us "Cowgirls" on the new AG am in Kansas TV show on WIBW Channel 13 airing in January at 4:30 am (or set your recorder and watch it later or watch the various segments on the internet). The web site www.agaminkansas.com is under construction and will be completed in January.

We met Heather Newell and Brian Hollman this fall and they introduced us to their new TV show. Heather was a great sport and accepted my invitation to come to the Fall Cowgirl Camp to learn to ride a horse and be a cowgirl. We outfitted her from head to toe and she did great. She rode Dewayne’s horse Everett (Smokes Boston Beamer) across the beautiful Flint Hills of the Bar U Ranch. A little white knuckled at first and then Heather settled right in like someone who had ridden all her life. She made a comment that she might be a little sore the next day (this was after about 2 hours of riding) and I told her I promised her she would be sore! What fun for everyone! Heather also got to visit the Flying W Ranch and Jim Bell and Sons while in the area. Watch for this segment!

Heather also did a segment on "Western Warm" starring Marilyn Domer, our famous store designer. Rumor has it, the segment turned out really good and it will be run in January as well. Also watch for Ernie Rodina and Dawn Dawson's Better Horses segment.

For a preview of the show go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDy5TMcGQ90&NR=1 and listen to Diane Gillenwater's beautiful fiddle music and see a glimpse of Jo and Kramer riding at the Bar U Ranch in the Flint Hills and Dawn & Ernie's "Horsing Around" .

"Cowgirl" Magazine
A new "Cowgirl" magazine has hit the news-stands. We received a sample box just before the Fall Cowgirl Camp and I took copies for all the "cowgirls". It is wonderful magazine and I highly recommend it. It has the high quality look and feel like "Cowboys & Indians" with lots of articles about the western lifestyle. Go to www.cowgirlmagazine.com to learn more about it.

Weather Lore for January
            • Fog in January brings a wet spring.
            • (13th) St. Hilary, the coldest day of the year.
            • (22nd) If the Sun shine on St. Vincent, there shall be much wind.

This full Moon appeared when wolves howled in hunger outside the villages. It is also known as the Old Moon. To some Native American tribes, this was the Snow Moon, but most applied that name to the next full Moon, in February.
                                            – from The Old Farmer’s Almanac (http://www.almanac.com)

Quote for January
                                        "There are some who take such a gloomy view of things they make them much worse,
                                          I always look on the bright side."
                                                                                                --St. Therese, the Little Flower

Liz’s Trail Corner – January Trail Tip
Trail Tip for winter riding: We can expect a variety of weather in these winter months--take time to evaluate your horse's fitness as well as your own before setting out for a ride--for yourself dress in layers--wear vibrant colors for safety--for your horse please be aware of the extra time required to cool a horse properly in cold weather, always consider the footing--icy conditions are dangerous for human and horse alike. Be sure to have a hoof pick, Pam Cooking Spray or whichever de-icer you use to prevent ice balls in hooves. Winter trail riding can be delightful with good planning.

       What’s Cooking?

                      - At Roy Frey Western Lifestyles

 

This winter weather gives me cabin fever. For a fun cure, I suggest having some friends over for an easy Mexican dinner. I recently fixed this meal for a "girl’s night out" evening to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was yummy and accompanied lots of good conversation and margaritas!

Guacamole
This is a creamy dip that is not only easy, but really good. Mash 2 pitted and peeled avocados with fork. Stir in 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt (optional), and ¼ teaspoon chili powder. Spread 1/3 cup real mayonnaise over mixture sealing to edge of bowl; chill. At serving time, blend mayonnaise into mixture. Add small chunks of Roma tomato and blend. Serve with corn chips. Makes about 1 ½ cups.

Salsa Verde Chicken Casserole
2 (3.5 oz) bags boil-in-bag rice (I used brown rice)
2 ripe avocados
¾ cup salsa verde
1 (4-oz) can chopped green chilies
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
2 cups chopped cooked chicken breast
1 (10 ¾-oz) can reduced-fat cream of chicken soup
1 cup light sour cream
1 cup (4 oz) grated Monterey Jack cheese
2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
Topping: chopped tomatoes

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare rice according to package directions.
2. Meanwhile, cut avocados in half. Scoop avocado pulp into a medium bowl, and mash with salsa verde, chopped green chilies, and lime juice.
    Stir in hot cooked rice.
3. Stir together chicken, soup, and sour cream in a small saucepan over low heat; cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes or until blended and slightly heated.
4. Spoon rice mixture into a lightly greased 13x9x inch baking dish; spoon chicken mixture over rice. Sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese.
5. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and casserole is bubbly. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Top with chopped tomatoes.

Corn and Bean Salad
2 cans black beans, drained and slightly rinsed
1 can corn, drained
1 medium red onion, chopped fine
¼ Cup cilantro, chopped

Dressing:
3 Tbsp. olive oil
1 lime, juiced
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
Black pepper to taste

Mix beans, corn, onion and cilantro together. Add oil, lime juice, cumin and jalapeno pepper. Toss well. Season to taste. Make this a few hours ahead of time if possible to give the flavors time to get to know each other! If you refrigerate, allow salad time to come to room temperature for serving. This is a great picnic salad.

Texas Fudge Sheet Cake
2 sticks butter
1 Cup water
4 Tbsp cocoa
2 Cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp salt
2 Cups sugar
2 eggs
½ Cup sour cream

Icing:
Bring to a light rolling boil 1 stick butter, 3 tablespoons cocoa and 6 tablespoons milk. Add 1 cup chopped walnuts, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 box (one pound) confectioner’s sugar; mix well and pour on hot cake. Cool before cutting into squares.

Donate Old Cowboy Boots to Winding River Girl Scouts
Winding River Camp & Equestrian Center, Dearborn, MO is in need of "well loved" and in good condition cowboy boots. Many of the 2nd – 8th grade girls may only get the opportunity to come to Winding River once a year. They often do not have boots or helmets so Winding River provides them. This has become quite a challenge as well over a 1,000 young girls come to Winding River for the Spring and Fall Program. We would welcome all sizes of used boots. Roy Frey Western in Topeka and Y Bar H in Olathe has offered to serve as drop off locations. If you would like more information about Winding River you can go to: www.theranchatloneoak.com or contact Linda Grimmett (816) 914-0490.
