STATEMENT OF WARREN AVERILL. 



Gentlemen Committee on the Dairy : 



I present for your examination one pot of September butter, 

 containing 20 pounds, being a sample of 192 pounds made 

 from one Native cow since the 20th of May last. The cow 

 that this butter was made from is rather superior. Her but- 

 ter was weighed every time it was churned. We tried for our 

 own information, not thinking of presenting any statement or 

 butter at this show. Four days' cream from this cow made 9f 

 pounds of butter. She gave from 20 to 21 quarts of milk 

 daily. My own family and one of my neighbor's have used 

 all the milk we wanted through the season — three pints every 

 day, and sometimes one gallon. Her keeping has been good 

 pasture through the season, with one quart of meal per day. 

 The past month the pasture has been rather dry, and she 

 fell off in her milk more than she would, had it been not so 

 dry.
