| dc.description.abstract | When life-history. records of herds of cattle are not being kept, It would be of some assistance to stock owners and others to be able to estimate the age of cattle from the development of their teeth. Such a method of estimation would be of great practical value for various reasons. Improvement of beef production by selective breeding would be possible if the farmer were able to select the early maturing type by observing the state of teeth development while the animal was growing.The sale for export of immature animals could be easily controlled as their ages could be gauged nearly enough for practical purposes by their teeth. Farmers wishing to purchase good foundation stock for breeding purposes would have a guide to the age. | en |
