Westfield Herefords Guard Herd Amid Beef Shortage
Cedric Folsom and his two sons guard nine reg istered Herefords on a 360 acre farm near Westfield Maine as beef shortages trigger rustling and theft reports. Folsom plans to sell nine month calves for breeding this fall at about $700 each, up from $500 last year, while guarding with a loaded 30 30 rifle and a spotlighted pickup truck nearby. The family says they would use force only to scare intruders and would not shoot. Supersol, their prized breeding bull, is valued at around $2,000 and is considered irreplaceable.
