HOLS TE IN RULES AND RECORDS 



349 



Supervisors will be sent to suit the convenience of owners as far 

 as possible, but we cannot promise a supervisor for any definite date. 

 Between October and June, application for supervisors should be 

 made at least three weeks in advance, in order to be reasonably sure 

 of a supervisor at the time desired. An application for a supervisor 

 may be canceled or a date deferred at any time up to three days 

 before the man is due. Supervisors will be sent to waiting owners 

 in order of date of application. 



Holstein-Friesian records. 



The Holstein-Friesian Association has four prize divisions, with 

 seven classes in each division. Following are the leading records for 

 each class in three of the divisions, the 7-day, 30-day, and the semi- 

 official or yearly division. Breeders are not usually satisfied to have 

 their cows merely qualify, but strive to see how much they can exceed 

 the minimum requirements, which are as follows : 



If the cow calves at two years of age or under, 7.2 Ib. fat in seven 

 consecutive days. 



If the cow calves at three years of age, 8.8 Ib. fat in seven con- 

 secutive days. 



If the cow calves at four years of age, iO.4 Ib. fat in seven con- 

 secutive days. 



If the cow calves at five years of age or older, 12.0 Ib. fat in seven 

 consecutive days. 



If the cow calves between two and three years, or between three 

 and four years, or between four and five years old, every day of in- 

 creased age adds to the requirement of the year .00439 of a pound 



of fat.
