Joe Brown, a teenager from Watauga County, North Carolina, is shown with his cow and calf in this black and white photo taken in March 1938. He was participating in a 4-H “Baby Beef Project.” Wearing a hat, he is standing outside in front of a barn. He holds ropes which are attached to halters on the shaggy, black and white cattle. Rolling hillsides can be seen in the background.
