The Japanese Cattle Ranchers (to be)
Yup, pardner. You don't know what lonesome is till you get to herding cows.
And hanging round the chuck wagon eatin' sukiyaki.
When the hoot owl hoots it's tooloo to the wail of a nickwick hen, and the chingpung chirps on a chilly night, it's mighty lonesome then. And it's mighty lonesome when the wind
howls through the jack pine boughs, but you don't know what lonesome is till you get to
herding cows.
But who's got all the lonesomeness the common law allows? Man, you don't know what lonesome is till you get to herding cows.
But first you got to have land, lots of land under starry skies above. Don't fence thee in.
How you going to do that? By moovin' them beeves above the darn timber line, that's one way for starters. That's the chotomattie scenario. Ahsodeska. Cut and shape
terracing along the sides of the slopes using the earth moving technology that exists today.
Even as I write, the technology is taking material from mountains and making gravel out of it to be used in concrete for buildings and tar for roadways. But in this case it can be used as the substrate for the walkways and turf for the mountainside cattle roads. Is that good for cattle? Well, some of the best dairy products in the world come from alpine cows such as those in Switzerland.
This would give Honshu Island enough room for enough cattle not only for it's own needs but also for export. Then the poor Japanese people wouldn't have to depend on dishonest farmers in other countries who do barbaric things such as turn their cattle into
cannibals.
