The quantity of milk in 14 days (Col. 9) is estimated by 

 multiplying the ascertained yield on the control-day by 14, 

 The quantity of butter (Cols. 10 and 11) is arrived at by 

 estimating that butter contains 86 per cent, of pure butter-fat, 

 and that "15 per cent, of the fat remains in the skim milk and 

 butter-milk : [Lb. of milk containing 1 per cent, of fat — (lb. of 

 milk x "15)] -r 86, or, more simply : Lb. of milk (Col. 9) x (per 

 cent, of fat (Col. 7) — "15) + 86. Tables are published in which 

 this calculation is worked out. The feeding-units in Cols. 12-19 

 are calculated from the record of food used on the basis explained 

 above. 



From this " record " the " control register " is entered up. 

 There are in all seven tables, the first of which, shown on the 

 next page, gives particulars fortnightly for each cow for a year. 



This table enables the productivity of each cow to be seen 

 at intervals of a fortnight. A summary is made up half-yearly 

 which, besides giving the total figures, also shows the average 

 milk yield per day, the feeding-units consumed daily, and 

 the quantity of milk and butter produced per 100 feeding-units 

 consumed.
