Ì Banks. Oregon CepyngU, A new method of identifying sheep to prevent livestock theft, has been devised by Australian sheep producers. This brand is about the size of a penny, and it comprises three letters and three figures. These are indelibly ta- tooed into the bare skin of thi sheep’s flank with a special pair of pliers. The system is inex pensive and an experienced oper ator can brand a sheep in about three seconds. A thief could cut out this brand, but this would cripple the sheep for about two months and leave a tell-tale scar. N M« Fini C<xk«ll,4ill Like Rd . MHw.uk.«, Ort.
