Shifting Salt Blocks
ROfates Range Pastures

Because Of the far reaches be
tween watering places In some part
OF the range country, cattlemen face
real problem of managing so tha
the range will be grazed evenly
What they need is a way to prevent
oyer-grazing near the water supplies
and under-grazing and waste of for
age in the "in-between" areas. For
age specialists of the Forest Service
United States Department of Agri-
culture, have found a simple solu-
tion that makes 1t possible to use
good pasturage, which, because OF
the distance from water. has been
going to waste when the range as
whole was stocked on the basis OF
its grazing capacity.
Part of the new idea is directly
opposed to old beliefs. Cattlemen
have been placing blocks of rock
salt near the watering place on the
theory that the cattle wanted a
drink after consuming salt. Forest
Service range specialists have PROV
ed, however, that cattle will often
take salt and then Craze away from
the water hole.
On this information the sailing
blocks were removed from the wa
tering places and it was found that
the cattle would effectively range
a greater distance as a result. Cat
tie ordinarily will not Craze more
than 21s miles away from water,
even in level country, unless forced
to do so by lack of feed.
BY building temporary watering
places, which were usable in late
summer and fall rainy seasons, it
also was possible to extend the
grazing range and get more even
utilization of the forage. Salt
grounds were placed on the average
of one for about each 200 acres.
Within weeks the cattle had found
their way to sailing places 4 miles
from the old ones. The stOckmen CO.
operating in this study agree that
the cattle used more range.
Moving the salt blocks made it
possible to keep the cattle on the
part of the range that was best to
use at a particular season of the
year. In addition to a partial rota-
tion in grazing, this shifting of the
salt supply also kept the cattle bet
ter distributed over the range and
pi owed an inexpensive means OF
cattle drift. Less fenc-
ing was necessary.
This system of distributing salt
and building temporary water holes
did not affect the calf crop as 1t av-
eraged IS per cent before and after
the experiment. The range special
lists, however, recommend an in
crease in the number of bulls in the |
herd as the new system of grazing |
scatters the herd over larger part .
)f the range.
