Short Horn cow. 511 pounds of butter a year. She is different from 

 these other cows I have shown you. Her body is much different and she 

 carries a great d'eal of flesh. No lean, thin appearance, but has got the 

 wd'dier, veins, and milk wells. 



This is Pauline Paul. She is the champion cow of the world. Makes 

 more butter in one year than any other cow. 1153 pounds of butter in 

 one year, and strange to say never gave over 68 pounds of milk a day. 

 Men might think other cows more valuable, but here is a cow that you 

 can depend upon the year through. She has got good udder, good milk 

 wells, and veins. She does not resemble other cows in body. 



This is Mary Ann St. Lambert. She made 36 pounds of butter in a 

 week. This is not an official tes t, but a test thaht was made unofficially 

 because in the days of Mary Ann St. Lambert some say she did not make 

 it. She is a long cow and has not got such wonderful depth of body, but 

 has a good udder and milk veins. 



This is a cow not pure bred. She is a half breed Holstein and Jersey 

 owned at the Experiment Station at Champaign, and there is one of the 

 best butter producing cows in tht State. 56 pounds of milk that test 5.6 

 butter fat. Look at her. She ha s not got such a wonderfiul body. She 

 has got a grand good udder and i he best milk veins I have ever seen in 

 a cow. 



On this page I have another cow with which Prof. Fraser is carrying 

 on an experiment; this cow and another one he is experimenting on. This 

 cow is in the experiment station. Look at her. She is about the same 

 depth, but lacking in udder. Ab out those two cows it is very strange. 

 Both have the same amount of food, and the same kind of feed. The 

 first cow will get 1% of butter fat while this produced one pound. Six 

 months of experiment. 175 butter fat this one; 75 for butter fat from 

 other one. To look at them this cow has got a lean pointed shoulder 

 and a raw looking cow, only this cow lacks in veins, milk wells, and 

 iidider. 



In judging cows a man should bear this in mind, if he is going out 

 to judge cows by tails or too much on type. I believe in dairy type to a
