This animal does not profit from the hurt it does others. The quarrelsome animal never makes as much fat oi milk from its feed as it would were it quiet and peaceable ; and it re'duces the thrift of the animals it depriveof feed, water, or shelter, if it does not injure them In nearly every case each an animal will be thoroughly reformed by dehorning ; it will be amfing the most peaceab’e in the herd.
