C Anderson Breeding cows for early calving is the thing to do according to the Extension Service Animal Hus bandman of Purdue University. Beef calves born in January, Feb. ruary or March are more profit able and are easier to keep the toiiowing winter than those born later in the year. The income of a beef cow, according to this re port is measured by the value of her calves on October 1 or at the end of the pasture season. Mis souri records on 11,000 cows over a ten year period show that on October 1, January calves aver aged 50 pounds heavier than Feb. ruary calves. The February calves on the other hand weighed 37 pounds more than the March calves, and March calves out weighed those born in April by 33 pounds. Looks like it is time to get the bulls turned in the herd if they are not already there.
