1. Cows Vs Bulls
These are used in dairy production because of their high volume of milk which they produce with
the high levels of fat and protein which is found in their milk; they are larger than Friesians but do
not carry as much meat and can be either black and white or red and white although they are mainly
seen in black and white. They can be found worldwide in nearly every continent, they are also
renowned for their easy–going temperament and ease of handling, they are used for milk production
for on average six years, even though many cows will live for longer.
During a single lactation period a cow can produce approximately 7591.45 litres of milk during each
lactation and this lasts for about 10 months; working out to on average 24.89 litres per day. ... Show

Beef
Charolais
They are white in colour, and were first bred in France; being first imported into Britain in the 1950s
to improve dairy calves but because of their fast growing rate, good muscle formation, quality
tasting meat and being good suckler beef cattle they became big in the beef industry. They have little
fat in their meat and because of their original use of pulling heavy carts and ploughs they, especially
the bulls, have big hindquarters and back muscles which in turn helps them to be superior above the
other breeds.
When crossed with a dairy cow a Charolais cross calf has the distinguishable colour of a Charolais
as well as the good growth rate and muscle mass this makes for a heavier calf that is finished and
ready for selling at an earlier age than all other breeds, which in turn brings in a bigger price at
auction.

3. Langthwaite Short Walk
Beginning from the cosy village of Langthwaite, this short walk has outstanding views. Fine heather
moorland and sparkling streams help to compensate for the ravages of the lead mines and spoil
heaps.
Langthwaite is acknowledged as the capital of Arkengarthdale and lies on the road from Reeth to
Tan Hill. The road was constructed in c.1741 and it was one of the first turnpikes. Its original
purpose was to transport coal from the Tan Hill mines to be used in the smelting furnaces around
Langthwaite. Turnpike roads extracted tolls from travellers in order to pay for their building and
maintenance. They often took advantage of earlier routes, especially through valleys, which were
formerly toll free. Turnpikes were resented by the packhorse and ... Show more content on

Bell pits were one of the earliest methods of mining for lead and other minerals. A vertical shaft was
sunk to a depth of about 20 feet (6m) before digging horizontally, along the vein. The ore and waste
were removed by a hand winch and a bucket. Due to poor ventilation, these workings could not
progress very far before the air became foul. There was also the danger of the tunnel collapsing. To
prevent this happening another bell pit was sunk close by. This procedure was repeated many times,
resulting in a line of bell pits spaced out along the length of the vein.
During our descent to Booze the scenery of Calver Hill, Fremington Edge and lower Arkengarthdale
rouses the senses. Booze is a small hamlet, consisting of just a few farms and cottages, but
unfortunately it does not have any licenced premises as its name implies. As a matter of fact, most of
its early residents were Methodists and so they abstained from the demon drink. In 1473 the hamlet
was known as Bowehouse, changing through the years to Booze. The original name means 'The
house by the curve', the curve possibly referring to the curving hillside or perhaps to one of the

5. The House Of The Importance Of The North York Moors
This section is probably the most demanding part of the Way, it traverses the northern escarpment of
the North York Moors, crossing a series of valley's which drain the moorland pastures. On a clear
day, the scenery is beautiful and invigorating, but there are few places to shelter if the weather turns
foul. Lord Stones Country Park is the only watering hole, en route, so take sufficient rations. Our
journey resumes from the market cross, and within a few minutes, we have two optional detours to
consider, one to Lady Chapel and another to Mount Grace Priory. Both will incur extra time and
distance. The Priory, founded in 1398 by Thomas de Holand, the nephew of Richard II, bears the
illustrious title of 'The House of the Assumption of the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
However, glaciers flowed on either side of the higher land masses and also crept into Scugdale, as
the ice melted a glacial lake formed. The lake, about 400 feet (122m) deep and 800 feet (244m)
above sea level, over­
flowed at Scarth Nick cutting a distinct V–shaped valley, a landmark which is
visible for many miles to the north. We continue along the Way to Huthwaite Green, ascend onto
Live Moor and follow the ridge to the summit of Carlton Moor. Here splendid views extend across
the Cleveland Plain to the Eston Hills, Easby Moor and the shapely pinnacle of Roseberry Topping.
After descending to the road, you may wish to take a pit stop at Lord Stones to recharge the
batteries! The next objective is Cringle Moor we follow a good path, ascending steeply to Cringle
End where a memorial seat and topograph pay tribute to 'Alec Falconer 1884–1968, Rambler', pause
here and enjoy the spectacular views. The topograph will help to identify the distant hills, including
Great Shunner Fell in Swaledale, Cross Fell the highest summit in the Pennines, and even Durham
Cathedral is discernible on a brilliant day. At 1427 feet (435m), Cringle Moor is the second highest
point on the North York Moors, although we pass just below the crest there is a narrow track rising
through the heather. The summit is marked by a cairn sited on the tumulus of Drake Howe. The
name is a combination of the old English 'draca' – 'dragon' and the old Norse

7. Lamb Fostering Methods
Lamb fostering basically is when a lamb is take care of by another ewe that is not its mother.
Nowadays, it is not very uncommon for farmers to practice some type of lamb fostering; this is due
to the fact that farmers love to have as many lambs as possible because each lamb represents their
income. Fostering is very important for experimental studies and keeping abandoned lambs and
triplets alive (Alexander, Stevens, & Bradley, p. 231). The reason fostering helps keep triplets say
alive is because a ewe naturally only has two teats so she cannot produce enough milk for three
lambs but if another ewe only has one lamb, that ewe can feed the stray triplet. The only problem
with this is that ewes are very good at distinguishing their own lambs from others and if they do not
recognize a lamb then the ewe will not let itself be suckled. So many times fostering methods
include tricking the ewe to accept the alien lamb as her own. This is why the farmers have to be sure
to use the method best suited not only for the them but also for the ewe. ... Show more content on

90). Ewes naturally are drawn to the fluids that are ejected from her as she gives birth. Because of
this a technique to get her to accept another lamb is to rub this fluid onto it within the first twelve
hours postpartum (Basiouni & Gonyou, 1988, p. 872). This technique is preferred by farmers due to
the fact that not only is it one of the easiest methods, it also is very effective and presents many
positive results (Basiouni & Gonyou, 1988, p. 877). One of the reasons as to why this method is
more effective could be due to the fact that it is the least artificial and restrictive for the ewe, which
both the farmer and the ewe prefer (Ward, Liste, & Tinarwo 2011, p.
