It depends on the dead calf. If it's a mummified calf, there's a risk of the cow developing metritis or infection of the uterus. Infection differs from the bacterial content in the uterus to whether there are any tears in the uterine wall from the calf's hooves scraping against the wall.

Other issues from calving itself (and not necessarily from birthing a dead calf) could include mastitis (no calf to suckle from), paralysis in the hind legs from delivering a very large calf, milk fever, etc.

If you can, it's highly recommended that you graft an orphan calf to the cow so that she still remains productive in your herd and doesn't let that milk "go to waste."

What should a cow in labors pules be. how do you know if the cow is having problems giving birth. shes been in labor over 24 hrs.?

Well if she's been in labour for over 24 hours that's a definite red flag that she's having trouble. Normally a cow would be able to pop a calf out a couple hours after the first stages of labour start. But for 24 hours, you may have a dead calf on your hand. GET THE VET OUT IMMEDIATELY if you want to save your cow.

How do you get a beef cow to accept a calf that isn't hers?

The best thing you can do is to skin the dead calf of that beef cow's, and drape it over the orphan calf's body so that you trick the cow into thinking that that calf is hers. But this will only work if you have that cow's dead calf on hand and not if that cow doesn't have a calf or if you're wanting to put another calf on that cow. Other tricks include smearing cod liver oil or perfume or some other strong-smelling solution that's not poisonous to the cow nor calf over the cow's nose and all over the back and head of the calf, putting a dog in with the cow and the calf, etc.
