PAULINE PAUL.

and have no breeding for butter on the other side, the product by actual test, 

 at the same age, is just about one-half as much as the two-year-old named 

 above, which had been bred for many generations on both sides to the highest 

 butter strains. 



"These facts, it seems to us, demonstrate most fully the importance of 

 breeding from animals whose ancestors for many generations have proven 

 superior in the lines desired." 



The famous year's test of Pauline Paul, which is the world's record in but- 

 ter production, is an example of the marvelous capacity of a Holstein-Friesian. 

 She has been appropriately conferred with a title: 



"THE QUEEN OF THE DAIRY. 11 



And still thy record leads the world 



The greatest ever seen 

 And still amid all dairy farms, 



Thou hoWst thy name as queen. 



Pauline Paul, 2190 H. H. B.,857 Advanced Registry, was dropped January 

 19, 1892. Her sire is Climax, 203 H. H. B., and her dam is Johanna Paul, 677 

 H. H. B. 



Climax is by 2d Consul, 339 H. H. B., he by Dictator, 82, and out of Lavina, 

 168 H. H. B. Dam of Climax, Zuider Zee 9th, 65; she by Van Tromp, 50, and 

 out of Zuider Zee, 62. Johanna Paul, 677. Imported. 



Pauline Paul has a butter record of 1,153 Ibs. 15f oz. in 365 consecutive 

 days, or one year, which record stands unequalled by a cow of any breed. 



She is the dam of Zozo, 10260 H. H. B.; butter record, 25 Ibs. 10^ oz. in seven 

 days; 104 Ibs. 12 oz. in thirty days; and also the dam of Pauline Paul 2d, 

 awarded first prize as best heifer calf at Buffalo, Elmira, Syracuse, Albany and 

 Oneonta, N. Y., 1892. 



The butter record of Pauline Paul for 365 consecutive days, commencing 

 February 8, 1890, is as below: 



BUTTER. 



Largest day's record of milk, March 25, 1890, 69 Ibs. 10 oz. ; largest day's 

 yield of butter, 4 Ibs. 9i oz.; largest seven days' yield of milk, 449 Ibs. 7 oz.; 

 largest seven days' yield of butter, 31 Ibs. If oz.; total amount of milk given 

 through the year, 18,669 Ibs. 9 oz. 



The butter was worked thoroughly and salted one ounce to the pound, and 

 prepared fit for market before weighing. During the whole period of the test 

 an invitation, through the press and otherwise, was extended to the public to 

 personally witness the record that Pauline Paul was making, and many took 

 advantage of it to satisfy themselves. 



The grain ration fed during the test consisted of three parts bran, two parts 

 of ground oats, one part of corn meal by measure. She did not consume over 

 30 Ibs. of grain per day, including the 3 Ibs. of cottonseed fed daily until 

 December 1. She had no slop food of any kind, or ensilage. The last churning 

 of butter made from her weighed 1 Ib. 9^ oz. 



She came through the test in good condition without experiencing a draw- 

 back of any kind, or refusing a feed. Her robust constitution, no doubt, has 

 been an important factor in accomplishing such remarkable results. She has 

 been a regular breeder ever since. 



Pauline Paul is now the property of Crumhorn Stock Farm, Paterson, N. J. 



There are almost numberless examples of the success of the Holstein-Fries- 

 ian in the hands of practical dairymen as well as breeders, in all sections of the
