To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This term applies to the brief applica- tion of the hot iron to the skin with light pressure. The purpose is to cause a roughening of the hair sufficient to give an outline of the brand. In this case only a few of the hair bulbs are injured or destroyed and the appearance of the brand is not so unsightly as with the heavier brands. This form of branding is often used in connection with 10 valuable animals, especially horses, to avoid a too unsightly blemish. Hair brands are usually placed upon ...the cheek or neck. This method has also been practised dishonestly by men working on ranges, if not watched. These men may later steal the animals and apply a permanent brand of their own. Age for branding. Age, apparently, is not an impor- tant factor. On the ranches, as a rule, the spring calves are branded at the fall round-up. This would make the usual age about six or seven months. AU calves, however, are branded at this time, and there may be some included only three months of age. Occasionally one or more may have been overlooked in the regular round-up and they then take their turn with the others in the following year.
