Texas is a state, not a city. Texas is the cattle state of the United States. Otherwise your question does not make much sense.
Refrigerated railroad cars could take the processed meat to the East. Actually the railroads enabled ranchers to drive their cattle shorter distances to the trains that came to their most local cow-town. The railroads allowed cattle to be transported long distances, quickly and efficiently to distant markets. This meant that herding of cattle on foot over long distances, using much man power, would eventually be consigned to the western cowboy movies.

Let me guess...6,666 cattle, right?
In 1884, TR was a New York State Assemblyman and a cattle rancher. In February, his wife and mother both died. Roosevelt spent much of that year on his cattle ranch in the Dakota Territory, the Chimney Butte Ranch (also called the Maltese Cross Ranch), and started his second ranch, the Elkhorn Ranch.
They were VERY necessary during that time period because no other means of moving cattle existed that time like much easier methods (by use of cattle liners) do today.
according to beefusa.org about $38,348 a year(average)
A Holstein cow will average at around 1600 lbs. Bulls average around 2300 lbs.
On farms and ranches because they are too big and eat and poo too much to be able to be raised in cities or towns. You can grow more forage to feed cattle all year long on a farm or ranch than you can on a city lot.
A house in 17th Century England would cost £300 on average
The amount of money that American cattle veterinarians earn hourly varies. On average, they earn about 34 dollar per hour.
The average wage earner in the 1800s made only about $16.00 a week. Of course, some earned much less and a 40-hour work week was considered short.
One yearling steer would have cost as much as $10 or more back in the 1800s. Today, due to inflation of the economy, a yearling steer costs around $1,800.00 or more, depending on breeding and weight.
Red Poll cows have an average mature weight of around 1200 lbs, and bulls average around 2000 lbs.
Most were the traditional house-wife that cooked, cleaned house, gave birth to kids, etc. However that's not to say that they weren't involved in the ranch activities as much as the men were, because a lot of ranch wives were also good horse-women as well, riding, roping and rounding up cattle along with the other cow-hands. Most packed a gun too, both as defense against vermin and rustlers but also for their own safety. In today's world, there are more and more women that are owners and very active ranchers. There are quite a few that are more than capable of running a ranch on their own and are the go-to people that make the decisions and manage the ranch according to their philosophies, the land they live in and the cattle they raise. Husband and wife are partners in the ranching business, with either person taking half the duties of the other. It seems, in the 20th century, that women play a much bigger part in the cattle industry than they have 200 years ago.
