HEIFERS. 23 



The three-years-olcl Dutch heifer calved the 14th of April; the 

 calf being a promising one, was raised. Her milk was set and churned 

 by itself, the first week in June, and it yielded five and one-half lbs. 

 butter. Again she was tried for the corresponding time in September, 

 :ind the yield was three and one-half lbs. of butter ; her keeping all 

 the while the same as the rest of my herd, common pasturing ; have 

 not yet fcurned ia to fall feed- I salt my cows twice a week invariably.
