 menced, to give due time for the arrangement of the Inspector's visit. 



6. No record can be accepted unless the cow is safely in calf 

 within five months from the date of the record commenced. 



7. Should the owner or the Inspector be dissatisfied with the 

 milk record or butterfat test at the time of the Inspector's visit, an 

 extra visit may be made at the owner's expense. 



8. The Inspector shall not be required to give more than one 

 day's notice of his visit. 



9. In order to place heifers and' young cows on an equal basis 

 with mature cows, an animal commencing her record at two years old 

 or under shall be required to produce within the lactation period 

 6,000 pounds of milk or 250.5 pound's of butterfat. For each day the 

 animal is over two years 3.65 pounds of milk and one-tenth of a 

 pound of butterfat shall be added; this ratio to continue until the 

 animal is 5 years old, when the required amount will have reached 

 10,000 pounds of milk or 360 pounds of 'butterfat. 



10. All cows must be in view of the Inspector when being 

 milked, and not more than ten cows shall be tested from one herd in 

 one day.

 visit, the moiety due to the Society will be collected by the Secre- 

 tary after the third visit of the Inspector. 



12. Should any questions or dispute arise not provided for in 

 the foregoing rules, the decision of the Sub-Committee shall be final. 



It is seen that the owner keeps daily milk records as with 

 the American test, but according to Rule 2 an inspector must 

 visit the farm at least every two months, while monthly visits 

 are required in the case of American records. The results of 

 these tests to date follow:
