Not all cows do. Magnets are only put in cows when they are being grazed or held in places where there is lots of metal waste like scrap iron, nails, screws, etc. which could cause potential harm to the cows in the form of Hardware Disease. Cows that are being grazed in pastures or held in dry-lots where there is very little to no scrap metal or iron to be found (especially if the farmer and/or his family scoured the pastures and corrals for every single piece of nail, screw, or scrap metal around when time permitted), magnets are not necessary.
Magnets are come in a form of a bolus pill (it's about 2" long and 1/2" in diameter) that is given to the cow orally with a bolus gun down the throat. The magnet stays in the reticulum for the rest of the cow's life, collecting metal and keeping it all on one place, letting the gastric juices break down the metal throughout the cow's life. Magnets are also given when the cow is experiencing Hardware disease, and just collects all the sharp objects in her reticulum for the rest of her days.

When were cow magnets first used on cows?
They are used to prevent any metal objects from penetrating the reticuloruminal lining. If any sharp objects (like nails and wire) do penetrate the stomach wall, this will invite infection and cause the cow to get extremely ill. Magnets are only used for those cows that are fed feed that tends to have a lot of metal junk in it, or are grazed in pastures with lots of metal junk in it. For cows that are grazed in clean pastures and are given clean hay, silage and straw, magnets are not necessary.

Some migratory birds have some magnetic sense, now believed to respond to changes in field strength rather than N-S. Some farmers used to feed magnets to cows.
