 CO-OPERATIVE MILK RECORDS. 



Althoiigli repetition io not as a rule considered advisable yet owing to the 

 increased demand for literature regarding milk and feed record forms, the follow- 

 ing is a list of some of these forms, which may be obtained free upon application 

 to this Division. An increasingly large number of dairy farmers have during thi' 

 post year availed themselves of this oti'er, which is a gratifying indication of tlic 

 i'lipidly advancing methods being adopted by our dairy farmers in the keeping of 

 records for the individual cows of their herds. IIowe^■e^, from inquiries, there are 

 apparently a very large number of farmers who, as yet, have not adopted any such 

 records in their herds, nor availed them.-clves of this offer, being in ignorance of this 

 distribution. The object of this free distribution is not to in any way overlap the 

 work of the Cow Testing Association of the Dairy Branch, Department of Agricul- 

 ture, Ottawa, but rather to encourage individual farmei*s in the keeping of dairy 

 records, which individuals in turn will eventually form the nuclei of record centres. 

 The week-long milk record form here illustrated, shows the simplicity and utility of 

 niiik record forms for distribution. 



The forms for distribution are as follows : — 



Month long. — Daily milk records suitable for herds numbering up to twenty- 

 two cows. 



Week long. — Daily records for herds of sixteen cows. 



Week long. — 'Dailj' records for herds of twenty-four cows. 



Monthly summacj' records. 



Yearly summary records. 



Teed record forms.
