The Cattleman’s Pages of History T


HE CATTLEMAN MAGAZINE IS ENTERING OUR SECOND CENTURY. DUE TO THE INTEREST OUR READ- ers have expressed, we are continuing to look back at the covers and editorial coverage of the cattle business of the Southwest through the years.


Our historic cover this month comes from November 1961. This


description of the cover appeared in that month’s installment “Of Things That Concern Cattle Raisers.”


“Chuck Wagon on the Clabberhill Color Photograph by George Williams


The big country that spreads from West Texas on towards


California contains at [sic] lot of cattle, although they may be spread pretty thin where the rainfall is light. Here at the Clab- berhill Ranch near Conchas Dam in New Mexico, grass is strong and the cattle thrive on it to produce the fancy feeder calves that eventually wind up on the dinner tables throughout the nation. The cook with his wagon in the foreground is still an impor- tant element in the cattle operation in this part of the country.”


Editor’s note: Every month on this page, we have reprinted the text as it appeared in that issue, without any additions or cor- rections.
