Nor is this merely a literary compilation. This project is a unique perspective between all of the professionals that tell stories of the missions – architects, landscape architects, planners, artists, historians, archeologists, anthropologists, Padres, tourists, etc. – and is woven into a product rich in illustrations and backed by interesting facts and sources. This project illustrates elements of the mission that most people might not see from a typical tourist viewpoint. This visual essay communicates the rich history of this influential place in a way that more fully demonstrates the fascinating elements of this mission’s systems and strives to lead the reader to a greater appreciation of this place that is part building, part garden, part lore.

  • Identification of Beef Animals
    ALABAMA A&M AND AUBURN UNIVERSITIES Plant & Identification of 18 U.S.C. 707 Animal YANR-170 Sciences Beef Animals o matter how many beef animals you might own, you should have some method to identify each individual animal. This is required for keeping accurate records. For breeding animals, you need to know the sire and dam of each animal as well as the animal’s performance from its weight at birth through its productive life. For market animals, identification Nhelps maintain birth date and performance records. Three reasons for animal identification are (1) source verification, (2) permanent identification, and (3) temporary or visual identification. The coming of the twenty-first century has brought the need for sophistication and account- ability to document herd health, to provide trace- back capabilities for antibiotic residue testing, and to provide a means of tracing or controlling food-borne illness. Electronic identification systems (EID), while in their infancy, have several new and innovative emerging tech- nologies. EID options include the following: • Bar-coded, tamper-resistant ear tags • Radio frequency identification (RFID) ear tags • Injectable transponders • Rumen boluses ARCHIVE www.aces.edu Permanent Identification Options Ear Tattooing This method of permanent identification uses special tattoo pliers that place numbers, letters, or a combination of numbers and letters in the skin in the inside of the ear by means of a series of needlelike points. Special indelible ink is then forced into the puncture holes made by the points. As the punctures heal, the ink is trapped under the surface and shows up as a number or letter.
