Profit in Stockraising on McKenzie Mountain Ranch
China Domeyer, living near the Cogewell stock ranch on the McKenzie, explains a profitable method for cows and calves. By letting cattle range together through summer without milker interference, the herd yields an extra veal calf about eight months old, sold to Watking & Miller for market. Domeyer netted 25.25 dollars from one such calf, a result he cites as superior to butter production and labor. He notes many unused ranges in Lane County enable similar profits.
