Atlanta Braves Ag Report: Ian Anderson debuts in Mississippi

By Benjamin Chase

OBERSTDORF, GERMANY - SEPTEMBER 13: Herdsmen guard their cattle near Traufberg Alpe pasture ahead of the way down from alpine mountains in the annual cattle drive descent on September 13, 2012 near Oberstdorf, Germany. The herdsmen bring the cattle up to mountain meadows in the spring and stay there throughout the summer, where the animals graze on grass and the herdsmen live in a small hut called an alm, often without electricity, where many make cheese from the cows' milk. The tradition dates back through centuries, and in countries like Germany, Switzerland and Austria alm culture has a deep resonance in folk history. In September the season ends and the herdsmen return the cattle to farmers in a festive ceremony marked by the decoration of the lead cow with a garland, but only if all the cattle survived the summer.
