EXPERIMENT VI. 



Three cows of the same herd, and under the same 

 treatment. The trial was made with milk of the 

 same milking, treated alike : 



No. 1. Days from calving, 15. Average size of globules, 4440" 

 " 2. " " 27. " " " 5260" 



" 3. " " 40. " " " 5520" 



No. 3 had a great uniformity of globule, and very 

 few granules. Except for the granules, No. 1 had 

 been as uniform. That the "feed" did not probably 

 affect the experiment unfavorably in this case, I give 

 below not only the food but the proportion of butter 

 to milk. 



Butter to Milk. 



No. 1. Pasture and J qt. oil meal, about 2 or 3 qts. shorts, 1 Ib. 23.23 Ibs. 

 " 2. Pasture and 3 qts. oil meal, 3 qts. shorts, Iqt. oats, 1 " 23.27 " 

 " 3. Pasture and } qt. oil meal, about 2 to 3 qts. shorts, 1 " 17.77 " 



EXPERIMENT VII. 



Milk of different cows, but of the same breed. 

 Measurements taken at different times, and under 

 varying conditions of food, etc. The sequences are 

 not therefore as regular as in the Experiments V 

 and VI.
