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,”
