Measurement and Weight of Cattle

page 26

Measurement and Weight of Cattle

Take the Girth close behind the shoulders, and multiply it by itself: take the Length from the top of the shoulder to the extremity of the buttocks, which, multiplied by the above, and divided by 7344, will give the Weight of a Fat Animal in Imperial Stones. Should the Animal be extra fat, add a twentieth; and if inferior, deduct about, the same quantity.

To find the Weight from the Table—Look in the column marked Girth for 35, and in the Column marked Length for 34, and then in the next column, in the same line with the length, is 5 stones, 9lbs., being the Imperial Weight.

Note.—The Smithfield Weight may be found by multiplying the Imperial Weight by 11, and dividing by 8.
