nature had provided for that purpose

no longer exist, and q breeders may
well ask themselves 10 to what useful

Pietertje Maid Ormsby never had
any horns because their growth was
prevented. When q calf OF about three
weeks old. as soon as slight sweIings
showed where the horns to be, she
was laid on her side and the hair close
