Cows in milk only part of the month— If a cow is in milk for 21 days, she is credited 

 with |X of the figure standing opposite her name in column III., see cow No. 25. If there is no 

 figure opposite her name in column III. she was not in milk on the day when the test was taken— 

 she is then credited with the proportion of the test of the preceding or succeeding month accord- 

 ing as she was in milk at the beginning or end of the month, see cows No. 1 and No. 27. As the 

 figures at the end of the year are multiplied by 30, the fractions are taken as 30ths, not 31ths. 



* This amount, 43| lb. of milk (not churned but used as new milk) is considerably smaller 

 than usual — as no new milk was required for calves during this month. 



The figures in column III. can be obtained in one of two ways, by a ready reckoner (which, 

 however, is liable to small errors) ; or by multiplying the lb. of milk in column I. b^v the percentage 

 of butter-fat (column II.) to get the weig-ht of butter-fat, and multiplying this latter by XSA As 

 butter is estimated to contain 88 lb. of butter-fat and 12 lb. of water, the butter is 0 f thebutter- 

 fat. For example, the butter yielded by cow No. 4, Gamboge s Pride II., is found as follows : — 

 10*75 lb. of milk x ^ = 774 lb. of butter-fat 

 and -774 lb. of butter-fat x = *8S lb. of butter, or '8,795
