Daniel Oshorti's Statement. 



I offer for premium my no-horned heifer. She is three years 

 old ; her calf was taken from her the 25th of May ; since that 

 time she has given from thirty to forty pounds, or from twelve 

 to sixteen quarts of milk per day, allowing two and one-half 

 pounds to the quart. Her keeping has been common pasturing, 

 without grain of any kind.

Philip L. Oshorn's Statement. 



I offer for premium my two year old heifer in milk. She 

 calved the middle of May last. In June and July she gave, on 

 an average, twelve quarts per day, and in August nine quarts a 

 day. Nine quarts of her milk made a pound of butter. Her 

 feed has been a common pasture.

Sylvester Ciimming^s Statement. 



I offer for inspection and premium my two year old heifer. 

 She calved July 9th, and the calf remained with her till August 

 8th. The product of her milk from this last date to Septem- 

 ber 8th, wa-s five hundred and twenty-five pounds. At the 

 present time, it is seventeen and one-half pounds per day. 

 Twenty pounds of her milk yielded one pound of butter. Her 

 keeping through the season has been good pasturing, without 

 any extra feed. The pasture to which she was driven, is three- 

 fourths of a mile from home.
