In talking to two different buyers during the past few days, Dotn rem a rked that they would like tn coo calves dehorned in the spring. They indicated that they could pay a cent a pound more for dehorned calves than those irdVi hnrno nn. The obvious rea son for this is that the dehorned calves are easier to ship out and thoro is not the setback that comes from dehorning after the pnlvpo. are several months . old. The premium for dehorned calves at one-dollar per nunarea wouiu average about $4.50 per calf. It would seem that tms wouia go a long ways in paying for the in mnvenlence. if any, of dehorn ing in the spring when calves nrp voiiner. In a training program for youth in pncniiraslne the dehorning practice, a rule was made by the Oregon Wheat Growers league that there would be no nornea calves allowed at the Oregon Wheat Growers League sponsored Fat Stock Show and bale at ine Dalles in June 1956. n Mrs. Venice Stiles of Portland is visiting her mother Mrs. Josie Jones.
