All this controversy? When I was first trying my hand at farming, late '80's-early '90'- There was a n individual renting my grandfather's place to pasture a few head. I asked if I could run one with his herd and the answer was yes. He actually bought a calf/feeder for me at auction, pastured it all summer then in the fall called to say it was killing time. I went up brought the my truck to the pasture the man was there with some helpers they shot the about 900 lb. animal WITH A 22 then cut it's throat. After it bleed out he put in the truck and I drove to another farmer that skinned it pulled out the guts, saving whatever I wanted then rolled it into a cooler for a couple of weeks, I was called when the wrapping was done. Now where was this? The auction was either in Maryland, Virginia or Pennsylvania; The pasture was in Maryland and the cutter/wrapper in Pennsylvania. I know the butcher was inspected because he had a small business the rest were/are just local farmers. Does it make a difference that it was also in the Appalachian mountains. Could this happen today (20 year later) Sure.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
