Frost Presented Going Away Gifts At Barbeque 36 Aggies Plan Song Training At Fort Eustis c , ■ By DUDLEY BURRIS Aggies are rallying in Fort Eus tis, Virginia to fight off a TU propaganda move. The 36 students from | A&M who are attending ROTC summer training find that the fair-haired lads brought a good supply of Texas’ songs as !was evidenced by the letter that ;ont* of them wrote P. L. “Pinky” Downs: A “Deajr Pinky, ’ ■, j Aggielaml ? dia, has beej| cross-bred with Euro pean cattle before. King Ranch combined 3/8 Brahm&n with 5/8 shortnorn and produced its Santa G*rtrudis biied. “Cross-brt^ding the Brahman and the Hereford hasn't been taken through enough generations,” Hill explained. | J. 0. Milter, head of animal hus bandry at A&M, said that selection and breeding of the Brahman and Hereford at Bluebonnet Farm will be based entirely on performance, pflus certain: standard requirements of body typb and conformation. “In the course of a few genera tions it is not unlikely that we will produce animals whose ability gain rapidly and economically will surpass the average of the breed,” Miller said. ? “The superiority of the Brah mans in the deep South and Gulf coast courifry, in general xhie to their ability to adapt themselves to the climatic and feed conditions existing there, is recognized,” Mil ler said. The Brahman’s drawback is that the calves jfind yearlings are best for marketing, not the steers. The hump-backed importation also has a stubborn,f streak to go wild on the range and become a problem child to handle. The starfin his crown is his im munity to Texas fever. A tough hide, short hair and a waxy secre tion of the Brahman’s skin are a combination which ticks and flies avoyl. South Texas has become the chief centfer for the Brahmans. The cattle are the descendants of a herd brought to Louisiana from India in 1860. The gentler Hereford was in Texas. They are hardy cattle, good grazers, mature early have an ability to aocuiw flesh at all ages. “Everyone recognized the super iority of the first cross Brahman Hereford over either parent for the production of mild fat calves at weaning time,” Miller said. “While our plans are not com plete, we do contemplate the study of the various combinations of blood between the Brahman and Hereford. And if we succeed in finding a particular combination which is superior, that strain will be intensified through breeding in the hope of establishing a strain which will breed true and retain its superior beef ability,” TOR RRST-UnfnrekM eountrr — $25.00 monthly.
