70 GUERNSEYS 



It was the record made by the Guernsey cows at the World's 

 Fair in Chicago, in 1893, which first attracted the attention of 

 the American farmer to this breed, and the record of the cow 

 Mary Marshall, when she led a herd of 50 cows of 10 breeds at 

 the model dairy at the Pan-American Exposition in 1901, that 

 fixed it. Since that time many handsome records have been 

 made by members of this breed. Particularly to be noted is the 

 record recently made by the cow, j\Iay Kilma (Fig. 2), in 

 producing in 365 days, 19,630.5 pounds of milk which contained 

 1059.59 pounds of fat, equivalent to 1271.5 potmds of butter 

 estimated upon the basis of 80 per cent fat. And later the cow 

 Murne Cowan produced in one year, 24,008 pounds of milk con- 

 taining 1098.18 pou.nds of fat, equivalent to 1317.82 pounds of 

 butter. These records established for this breed the world's cham- 

 pionship in butter production — ^held for about a year.
