here, basicaly if you feed it for so long its yours. most folks put a ad up in the sale barns,feed stores etc where other farmer ranchers are likely to be.and sometimes in the paper. as someone else mentioned its not all that hard to lose one out of a trailer,bro in law lost six one time when he didnt get endgate latched good.he never did find one. also do you live in a area with a lot of so called ranchettes? when times get rough and guys are losing their place for some reason or another its not at all uncommon to find strays wandering around.never did figure out why they dont haul them to the sale barn myself, but some folks if they dont have a trailer or whatever and cant keep them anymore simply turn them out. Sure dont want to alarm you any,but watch your cattle close for another reason than their health. If this is a older cow with a bunch of young ones they often will follow her,even into a trailer. with cattle prices what they are,rustling is a real problem and getting worse.if a guy can load up even a few young cattle at todays prices its a pretty good paycheck for someone whith the guts, and the odds of getting caught are low. an old judas cow that will load anywhere is a perfect cover.fellow simply drives in ,throws the gate open,old cow loads and he pushes afew more in with her. anyone shows up hes just picking up his cow and those others followed her in,if they dont show up,he simply drives away.be accross a county or state line in a couple of hours lots of times and if law doesnt know your brand or that youve lost cattle he's home free in most cases.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
