Pickup Calf Lifter

Pickup calf lifter LIVESTOCK Miscellaneous 12-6-33 "It lets one person weigh a calf by himself," says Larry Johnson, Revillo, S. Dak., about the lift frame he uses to weigh calves. The calf lifter fits in the rear stake pocket of Johnson's pickup. An 8-ft. long lift arm hinges at the top of the main lifter post. A conventional store-bought scale hangs from a hook (see arrow above) about 4 ft. out along the lift arm. The operator simply attaches the calf to the scale and then raises the lift-arm to get a reading. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Larry Johnson, Rt. 1, Box 347, Revillo, S. Dak. 57259.
