3. Mitk Recorps ror Home Practice.—Prepare a milk record for 
each cow of the herd. Rule off 31 spaces for every day of the 
month, beginning with 1, or the frst day of the month, and num- 
bering down to 31, the last day. Leave space at the top of the sheet 
for the name of each cow and rule the paper crosswise, with two 
blanks for each cow, for the purpose of recording the weight of 
milk for both morning and evening. Small scales are necessary 
for weighing the milk and the milk pail. By knowing the weight 
of the pail and subtracting this weight from the gross weight of 
milk in pail, the weight of the milk is obtained. The weight of each 
milking is now placed in the space prepared for it for that day and 
both morning and evening milking recorded. See illustration, page 
197.
