Article Reads : Modern-day cowboy on 131,000-acres McDaniel Ranch in Cimarron, N. M., uses two-way radio during cattle roundup. A ranch aircraft spots stray cattle in nearby hills and relays locations to cowboys equipped with Handi-Talkies. Modern Communications have cut roundup time from a week to an hour, according to rancher Milton McDaniel, whose ranch is 60 miles long and 45 miles wide.
