Hi Alan R.

Congratulations and I wish more people would put the parentage of their best
ones on the screen for others to note.

 Is this correct?----------- 614 Reynolds 98--607 Kuhn 97 x self

Now,I better do as I say:

           780 Eaton 98--810 McInnis 96 x 853 Eaton 97

More growers are taking an interest in producing pedigrees and every piece
of info may be useful in the future.

Please confirm if 614 is correct.             Thanks--Alan E.
