JUNO HIGH GRADE JERSEY. 



The cow Juno has been given here to illustrate a type lacking capacity 

 and having the wrong conformation for a dairy cow. Juno has a record 

 of 86 pounds of butter in one year. After such a performance it was natur- 

 ally thought best not to keep her, so we have but one year's record to show. 

 She was a healthy cow, strong and vigorous, but steer-like in shape, having 

 heavy shoulders and crops, with' small barrel and undeveloped mammary 

 glands. Juno was also a high-grade Jersey and her breeding is much the 

 same as the cows Annie and Cora. This is a good illustration of the import- 

 ance of judging cows by type rather than by breed.
