Here's why: Calves go on dry
feed faster with no growth lag
after weaning—grow into sleek
heifers that freshen earlier.

mess, Saltonstall says He re
called seeing a calf dropped
m a howling Maine blizzard
with no shelter In a few min
utes the calf was up and nur
sing even though it was coat
ed with ice The calf survived
and thrived Cows on the New
Danville farm have access to
the barn, but this week they
were standing out m the
snow storm and appeared to
be contented
Saltonstall wmteis the
cows on hay alone, but he
said he wmuld probably feed
some gram if the hay were
not high quality The cows
seem to do well on rough feed
He said they even seem to
prefer the rougher pasture and
seek out coarser grass when
good pastures are available
The origin of the breed
seems to be lost in the dim
past, but Belties axe mor-i
popular in Scotland than any
where else Most of the char
acteristics are the same as
the black or dun Galloways
(except for the white belt),
but the cattle can not be
cross-registered
While no one knows for
sure where the Belties came
from, it seems likely that
their ancestry includes blood
of the Lakenvelders, a belted
dairy breed from Holland
and the more common black
or dun Scottish Galloways.
