I have placed before you a number of illustrations of differ-

HOLSTEIN cow, PRINCESS OF BLACKHAWK, 



No. 39385. 



Milk record, 77-day test, 39.2 pounds per day. Milk test, 

 77-day period, 2.45 per cent. Butter record, 77. day test, 1,57 

 pounds per day, 



I wish to call attention to one point in particular: This cow. 

 Princess, has now been in milk for nearly thirty months, and 

 during the past year has produced nearly 8,000 pounds of milk, 

 part of the time the test running over 4 per cent, of butter fat. 

 so that you see she is an exceedingly persistent milker.
