A Man With a Marvellous Memory.

In the Interesting People department
Of the March American Magazine ap-
pears a sketch Of Lod Calohan, a won
derful cattle inspector in the Kansas
City stock yards. He examines 100000
cattle q year and has a marvellous
memory for brands, carrying $4,000 OF
them in his head. Following is an ex-
tract from the article.
Remembering faces Is big job, but
how would you like the job of remem-
bering cattle brands and how would
you like to have established the repu-
tation Of knowing more than fifteen
thousand brands, and being so familiar
with them that you could watch over
two million cattle every year and save
cattle men thousands Of dollars by
knowing a few markings"
"Lod Calohan, inspector in the stock
yards Of Kansas City. bears this repu-
tation, and he lives up to it. 1t Is
said that Calohan never forgets COW
brand. He knows the principal brands
Of Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kan
sas, Colorado. New Mexico. Oklahoma.
Arizona, and Texas. When the assoc
ciation sends him a list Of new brands
he looks it over, folds up the list and
forgets all about it-but not the
brands; or tucks them away alongside
of those other thousands Of brands for
future use.
More than two million cattle pass
by Calohan annually for inspection at
Kansas City. and from three hundred
to six hundred of this number he picks
out and returns to their rightful own
ers. Generally the cattle become as
ISOLATED with shipments by mistake,
but sometimes the steers have been as
sisted in strayins. When 1t develops
that the cattle have been stolen the In
spector looks it up and brings charges
against the 'rustlers.'
mot only does Calohan recognize
the brand but he can pick out stray
steer from a bunch Of cattle without
seeing the brand. The actions Of th"
stray steer give him the clue, and he
then looks for the brand.
"Calohan has to remember not only
the brands of the twenty-seven hum
dred members OF the Cattle Raisers'
Association Of Texas-he must keep
posted up to the minute on the sales
that have been reported to the associa-
