Show To Cure a Kicking Cow. When the cause of kicking can only be assigned to vice or an acquired bad habit, the following little arrangement will be found useful, and, at the same time, simple, harmless, effective, inexpensive in-expensive and easily applied. A strap about one inch wide should be buckled around each hind leg a little above the hock, sufficiently tight to compress com-press the hamstring. The animal cannot kick, and if flies are troublesome and cause her to switch her tail the best plan is to either strap it to her leg or secure it to one of the straps with a piece of cord. Use the straps every time the animal is milked, and after three weeks or so omit to ascertain whether wheth-er a cure hast been effected or not |
