the breeder which far exceeds the expense involved, either under the 

 old or new schedule. 



The station is of the opinion that yearly tests give much more ac- 

 curate information concerning the productive capacity of an animal 

 than seven day tests, and strongly urges breeders to adopt the longer 

 period. 



As heretofore, farmers and breeders can place five cows in the 

 seven day test when milked four times daily, and when the conven- 

 iences are adequate, eight to ten cows can be included in the one 

 or two day tests, providing the cows are not milked more than 

 twice per diem.
