Abstract
"I take pleasure in informing you that the government stock of this agency, during all the years I have been in charge, have been carefully and fully branded with a government brand and so branded that they can readily be identified. The cattle are branded on the right thy, thus ID with a hole punched in the left ear 3-4 inch in diameter and the older cattle are branded on the horns with a small ID. The horses are branded on the right thy with the same brand. The calves and colts (natural increase) or any that are purchased, are branded and so reported on our property returns from quarter to quarter. Issues made by the Indians of said government stock are vented thus ID (sidewise with I at bottom) having in addition their own brand."
