you waited a moment, he would
poke his nose out to sniff the
physical atmosphere and pos
sfbly to test the mental status
of the humans In his foraging ter
ritory.
When Junior was used to us,
and we to him, he would allow
great concessions. We reper-
mitted to stroke pardon the ex-
pression) his belly. In this he
aided and abetted US by sQuirm-
ing around into a circle Of fur
and quickly nipping himself over
on his back. Then he presented
a ludicrous picture Of all fours
in the air, purring SO loudly that
silence was a stranger. All the
while, his paws would reflexly
open and close, grasping the
air and relinquishing It. His
slanted closed eyelids gave US
impressions that he was UNDER
going pleasures Of seventh
heaven.
When we were moody and
troubled, Junior was a buffer to
the inner core Of our problem.
"Junior only knows that he needs
his rest, his food and our affec-
tion," we would say. And this
philosophy somehow gave US an
awareness that in essence, life
resolved itself to these points,
and made us feel that our terrible
problems were not so bad after
all. For, which OF fus is homeless,
starving and lacking a single
friend7 He was good company In
our. time Of doldrums.
Our daughter Ruth was SUBJ
jected to a most cruel dilemma.
One day, our Junior, SO soft and
so docile, the epitome Of gen.
tility, brought home little bunny,
depositing 1t on our front step.
The bunny was mutilated and
breathing and bleeding. How could
he, she thought, be so murderous
inside and SO ador able outsider
Her thirteen years of life hadn't
prepared her for this. Her i'm
pulse was to strike him as she
would a criminal, yet she realiz-
ed his intelligence would not be
great enough to appreciate the
meaning OF her punitive blows.
She ragged to Junior, to us and
to heaven with cries Of,
SHOW could he do this to a poor
innocent little rabbit?
f'He's a wild beast and should
be punished.
'tNo he's notl He's adorable
and didn't know better"
Every since that day, she had
refused to allow Junior to catch
mice in our cellar. But her sur
veillance was incomplete. During
her absence attending school,
he hunted and brought Us
souveniors: moles, mice and
birds.
Junior was altered. His
hormones were deficient. He
never quite understood sex diff
ferences. We observed him being
pals with an orange tomcat. He
seemed very perplexed once when
female appeared on the scene.
A procession, in running for
nation, could be seem OF sthe
I'm front, hotly pursued by
the orange one and brought up

In the rear by our froltcking
Junior. But they outdistance him
quickly and he stopped to watch
them disappear over the brow
Of hill. Disconsolately, he row.
ed our back yard, climbed up a
tree, made passes at some scold-
ing birds and jumped down with
feline grace. Then he walked ma
jestically to the house and shook
the screen door with his paws
to let us know that the great
warrior had arrived and wanted
in.
Why we tried to hide our deep
feelings about Junior, don't
know. Perhaps there was stigma
attached to loving such dumb
animal with such depth Of feel
ing. We would kid one another
when we heard the other speak
to Junior. "Do you expect him
to under erstand?" we would ask.
Ruth had a stock answer. "He
Is a human beast"
Junior was too proud to whine
except on special occasions.
Rather, he preferred to come
to my wife and rub against her
leg. # this did not attract her
attention, he gently nipped her
toe through the hole Of the late
style fashion shoes. When the
moon was full and the night OBJ
served our house with eying
stars, Junior would whine to
be let out. Deep within him was
the stirring Of the urge to hunt.
He could not control the primord-
ial instint Of the carnivore, the
predator. The first time we heard
the cry, we mistakenly believed
him to be In pain. However, his
quick scratching at the door left
no doubts as to his desire. We
became accustomed to his de-
mands and against our better
Judgement we allowed him his
freedom at such times.
It was on such a night, three
days ago that he left without
returning. Was he struck by a
car? Why, then, can't we find
his body7 We have been search
ing In crevices, bitches along the
highways and In nearby farm
buildings. Did someone admire
his beauty and abduct him7 We
hope he viii write us an anony-
nous message 10 that effect, to
let us know that he Is alive.
Has Junior been hurt by dog2
Has he dragged his broken body
to some obscure covered place
In the manner Of his wild ances-
tors? Then there still IS hope
that he may return. We would
then give him the best veter-
mary attention that money could
buy.
Yes. He is only a human beast.
His colors are plain. His walk
and actions are probably no dif-
ferent from millions Of other
cats. Yet, II he were to present
a part Of himself: his tail, his
paw or his ears, we would rec
ognize him instantly.
II any reader should see jun
Tor, even though he be dead,
please let US know. It gets SO
lonely under the. black sky of
night when = clouds AdarkenA the
light Of the moon. It is cold at
night, this time Of the year. He
would be war mer In a deep deep
grave, safe from the ravaging
Of mar auders who would desc
crate his body. Then, our mem
cries would blanket his resting
place.
Perhaps He, who looks after
the smallest sparrow, would af-
ford Junior a final haven where
there be no enemy, no problems,
just a paradise where cats could
play all day long and sleep the
night away contentedly.

Vapaa warns that because OF
health problems that usually
arise when many calves from
more than one source are brought
together, it appears that vealing
should be limited to bull and
surplus heifer calves from your
own farm or those purchased are
confined to one farm. The size
of the operation should be limit
ed until experience is gained In
the marketing as well asproduc-
tion of veal.
Returns over feed and calf
costs might range from $10to$ $40
per calf in areas with a veal
market. At present packers are
forced to obtain vealers in other
states to meet the demands of
our Eastern markets. Prices paid
for finished vealers raised on
milk replacers are generally
lower than those finished on whole
milk.
Milford chronicle., 1963-02-15
Veal Calves
Boost Income

Veal calf production could pro-
vide added income, reports
county agent George Vapaa. He
cites recent research at Penn
State and other experiment sta
tions that indicate satisfactory
veal may be produced by using
certain types of milk replacers.
This means that vealing may be
profitable In areas where milk
prices make milk feeding of veal
calves uneconomical.
A replacer containing all milk
products and at least 10 percent
fat is recommended for vea1ing.
Many of the replacerS used for
raising replacement calves con-
tain considerable amounts of veg
etable products. These are not
readily utilized by young calves,
so these replacers generally are
not satisfactory for veal cali
production.
