[Avodah] Re RHS and dairy

[Goldmeier]

from what I understand, and I might be wrong, there is not much cross-over, 
and this is unlikely to be an issue. Some cows are raised for slaughter. 
Some cows are raised for milking. The different types are fed different 
foods and vitaminds and hormones. A farmer will not likely let his dairy 
cows be used a sampler for shechita. Also, a cow that was raised for milk 
might not be a good and accurate indicator of a rov of cows that are raised 
for meat.
