buyer pays much more attention TO
the head than the inexperienced buy
er would deem necessary, especially
with stock cattle which are not filled
out sufficiently to judge as to their
future development and probable form
when finished. He will also realize
at first glance whether or not the
eve is one that indicates a quiet and
contented disposition.
The head should be broad, short
with full forehead, strong jaw, large
mouth and nostrils, and free from
either coarseness or delicacy. If such
a head is found on steer in feeder
condition, it is usually guarantee
that he will make good use of feed
and develop into thick, blocky indi-
vidual when finished. A thick, short
neck is desirable, not because of its
intrinsic value but because 1t usually
indicates a thick carcass.
A short, straight back indicates
strong muscular development and a
tendency to mature early. other
things being equal, the steer with the
broadcast and thickest back will be
the most valuable as the highest
priced cuts of meat are taken from
the back and loin.
Capacity for feed is essential in a
feeder as the body must be main
tanned and provided with heat and en-
ergy before any of the food is stored
in the form of fat.
