horns on cattle the ontario guernsey breeders cub is lanching a programme to re move horns from their cattle here is what bruce hodgins secretary of the ontario guernsey club has to say about the matter horns on cattle ore as necessary in this present age as wings on a pig the beef cattle industry has been religiously trying to educate breeders and feeders to take the horns off their cattle or to breed non horned varieties in order to save themselves millions of dollars yearly by sending a better product to the packers they reason that packers pay a- lower price for cattle with horns because there is bound to be damaged portions of the car casses which have to be cut out and sold at lower prices its about time the dairy cattle people woke up and realized that there is noth ing to go in and everything to lose by leaving the horns on their fem- oles there i3 no breed of dairy cattle so docile that there is abso lutely no possibility of injury being t inflicted by one another and
