Cattle
'Spruce Up'
To Impress Judges
“Vanity of vanities, ... all is vanity.” Even the show
cattle at the University are aware of the importance of good
grooming, especially when they are trying to impress the
judges at a cattle show.
The University’s show cattle are sprayed with a sulfur
aolution which they seem to en-~
joy as much as Madam Dußarryj
enjoyed her milk baths
Afier this shower comes a
time for them to relax while
students in animal husbandry
comb their locks. Every cow
likes to look its best, and neat

any cow for those special pub

tie caused by the absence of curls.
Beef cattle have often been
described as square blocks on
legs; this being a characteristic
that judges and other beef cat

cow for looking contented even
if it doesn't have an hourglass
figure.
It’s almost time for the Uni
versity’s show cattle to begin their
round of social events for 1958.
This year they will appear at
Harrisburg; Baltimore, Md.;
Louisville, Ky.; and Chicago, 111.
They’re expected to return to the
University the first week in De
cember.
