These analyses are from individual cows and it is to be expected 

 that some of them will be abnormally low. The milk of an average 

 herd of say four to six cows will contain from 4 to 5 per cent of fat and 

 about 9 per cent of non-fatty solids. 



For comparison, Dr. Leather's tables are added giving only the 

 figures for " Total Solids " "Non-fatty Solids " " Fat " and " Specific 

 Gravity " as our analyses were not complete and detailed as to the 

 percentage of proteid, milk sugar and mineral ash.
