Mr. à Mrs for a short vacation in Salt need to go to a rodeo to see a wild cow milking contest. On every ranch the show is now on. Here is an every day scene as told by " Ray Jorgenson of Twin Rivers. :- Cows with blistered teats and starving calves by their sides. Teats chafed by snow and sun. The cov kicks and refuses to let the calf suck. Cow men riding in pairs rope the cow and a well trained horse holds her while she is being milked. Teats are treated with udder salve. The calf caught and held in position until he learns to take the milk again. According to Ray they have caught cows as many as five times. Dead animals, mostly calves were found along the border fence between Montana and the Community pasture. The snow was so deep that the stock that drifted across the border were thought to have walked over the tall drifts along the fence. Cow boys have red faces these days and Ray was no exception You don’t "Well, I warned you about working in the garden all day."
