Page "lore" Paragraph 940
from
Brown Corpus
In the spring when penned cattle were turned out to grass, this was spoken of as `` turn-out time '', or `` put to grass ''.
`` Shootin' 'em out '' was gettin' cattle out of a corral onto the range.
When a cow came out of a corral in a crouchin' run she was said to `` come out a-stoopin' ''.
To stir cattle up and get 'em heated and excited was to `` mustard the cattle '', and the act was called `` ginnin' 'em 'round '', or `` chousin' 'em ''.
After a roundup the pushin' of stray cattle of outside brands toward their home range was called `` throwin' over ''.
