Thus the " Ayrshire years " show a yield of about 

 1,200 pounds more per cow in milk than do the 

 "Native years." 



The " Ayrshire years " also show a yield per cow 

 for the year of 1,095 pounds more than do the 

 "Native years." 



These statistics, with every feature in favor of the 

 native cow, certainly justify claims for high value to 

 the A vr shire stock as milkers.
