The following response to ourinterrogatory
on this subject, is given by a gentleman of
much experience who resides in Robson
county:
CLAY VALLEY, N. G. April IL, 1858.
MEssRS. EDITORS In answer to the in
quiry in the last number of the North Caro-
lima Planter, Why it is that fine cattle are so
apt to die when brought to this State ?" |
can say, that from 80 years observation, l
have learned the following facts, viz Cattle
removed from good ~pasturage to inferior, in
any direction, will not do well. They may
be removed from South to North, and either
East or West, without any risk, provided the
pasturage or range to which they are taken
is as good or better than that from which
they have been removed. But from North
to South they cannot be taken under any
circumstances, without great risk. Why it
is, ! know not but l believe that nine-tenths
Of all full grown. fine blooded cattle that are
carried 200 miles South, will die the first
spring and summer, treat them as you will.
Young cattle, say one, two or three years
old, may be saved by proper treatment
that is, keep them we'll sheltered from the
rain, and sun in the heat of day, in clean
we'll ventilated sheds. Let them have plen-
ty of cool well, or spring water. They should
have rye or good grass lots to run on, morn.
ing and evening, in good weather. Feed them
plenty of hay. oats and fodder all kinds o.
vegetables from the garden that they will
eat, and slops from the k~itchenswith a littl,
rye or corn meal mixed in. They should b.
regularly curried and rubbed every day.
As soon as they are discovered to be unwell
pour cold water freely over the head an
along the back, three or four times a day
until they are well. After the first year
there is not much danger, but they will no
be fully acclimated under two years an,
during that time they should not be permit
ted to run in the woods with the native stock
1t is scarcely necessary to say, that the bes
time to take cttle South, is in October an,
November.
Yours truly. r.
