Bart., would indicate that some breeders took a keen interest 

 in the dairy production of their cows, and persons who know 

 Mr. Lennard state that he always had an enthusiastic inter-

 descended from one cow imported by Mr. Fowler of Bushey,

"She was a regular breeder; her milk varied from six-

 to 2 pounds 9 ounces of butter, according to the season."
