Show Cattle, Sheep Reseed Grass Lands as They Eat CHICAGO, 111. The invention of a gadget that may prove of great value to western sheep and cattle producers was announced recently recent-ly by the National Livestock Producer, Pro-ducer, a trade publication. The gadget hangs from an anl-mal's anl-mal's neck like a cowbell and is filled with grass seed. As an animal ani-mal raises and lowers its head in grazing, movable disks match up to form holes which drop from one to three seeds at a time. Animals would not only reseed existing good grazing land but also tend to seed poorer stands, since cattle and sheep graze on the way from one good grass' area to another. |
