THE RIGHT KIND OF A JERSEY. 
You find her picture on the first page. 
On her shape and appearance any man 
who knows a cow would take her for 
a good one. Suppose you had a herd 
of cows with any such shape! Mr. F. 
J. Jones, the proprietor of Jones Jersey 
Farm, has this to say about “Miss 
Oaks.” 
“Although she has much of the Island 
type, she is strictly an American bred 
cow, combining the blood of Signal 
and Landseer’s Fancy. She will weigh 
about 1,000 pounds and is as ‘queenly’ 
in every way as her picture would indi¬ 
cate. She is a very persistent milker, 
giving from 34 to 37 pounds of milk 
per day when in milk five months, her 
highest day’s milk record being 53j£ 
pounds, and an average of nearly 50 
pounds per day for 30 days. She is now 
on test for the year, and bids fair to 
produce 12 times her weight in milk. 
Her average fat test is 5.35%, so I have 
reason to believe she belongs in the 700- 
pound class of butter cows.” 
F. J. JONES. 
TWO MORE GREAT HOLSTEIN COWS. 
Several articles have already appeared 
about those famous cows raised by the 
Geauga Co. Breeders’ Association. In fact 
these cows are making this part of Ohio 
famous. 
For three generations the Dimoc farm 
had been in the family; at last only two 
hoys were left in possession of the old 
home. Guerdon, the elder, became en¬ 
gaged in the insurance business, and left 
the farm in possession of the younger 
brother Dan, who had spent his life on 
the farm. Each visit brought to the 
elder brother the great possibilities that 
could be had on the farm. So on July 
1, 1907, the brothers entered into 
partnership. They purchased enough 
land to make in all 700 acres. They 
built a model barn for testing, and one 
equally as good for raising the young 
calves, remodeled the older barns, put 
up silos and arranged for making the 
most of the great breed of Holstein 
Friesians. They purchased 13 cows to 
begin with, how wise a choice this was 
is shown by. the remarkable record they 
have made. Banostine Belle DeKol, who 
lias recently finished her great official 
record, stands at the head of her kind 
to-day, as was shown in the figures last 
week. During the 365 days of semi¬ 
official record she produced 27,404.4 
pounds of milk as against 27,432.5 
produced by Colantha 4th’s Johanna, 
Colantha 4th’s Johanna continues to 
hold the semi-official record so far as 
milk is concerned by 28.1, but Banostine 
Belle DeKol produced 1,058.34 pounds 
of fat against 998.26 pounds produced 
by Colantha 4th’s Johanna, and 1,017.28 
pounds produced by Pontiac Clothilde 
DeKol 2d. Thus we see Banostine 
Belle DeKol has made a wonderful in¬ 
crease in the world's record of over 41 
pounds of fat by this last great test; 
all the more remarkable because she 
was not dry between times of freshen¬ 
ing, giving an average of 3.86 per cent, 
butter fat. She was bred and raised on 
the farm. She is a daughter of Bano¬ 
stine Belle. She in turn was a daughter 
of Euphrasia A., the foundation cow 
to which all the cows of this great herd 
trace. The mother of Euphrasia was 
imported from the northern part of 
Holland by E. Huidekoper, of Pennsyl¬ 
vania. Euphrasia was brought to Geauga 
County about 30 years ago, and has 
had great influence in the development 
of this breed of cattle. Banostine Belle 
DeKol is the daughter of Friend Hen- 
gerveld DeKol Butter Boy, all of whose 
A. R. O. daughters have records of 20 
pounds or more, three having records 
of 30 pounds and more of butter in 
seven days. In semi-official tests three 
of his daughters have produced an aver¬ 
age of 1,006.49 pou-xds of fat in a year. 
Dimoc Brothers have also developed 
Daisy Grace DeKol, who holds the 
four-year-old junior world’s record and 
High Lawn Hartje DeKol, 'who pro¬ 
duced 19,425 pounds of fat from 468 
pounds of milk. These great records 
show how successful these brothers'have 
been, they now have about 100 head 
of females. No small sum of the suc¬ 
cess has been due to Mrs. Dimoc whose 
interest in the work has been untiring 
and who is ever ready to welcome the 
visitor at the farm. 
The secretary of the Perckerou Society 
of America states that Canada imported in 
1911, 197 Percherons from France and 343 
from the United States. The trade for 
1912 promises to be greater yet. 
Their Great Simplicity 
de eaval cream separators excee aee other 
separators not only in thoroughness of separation, sanitary 
cleanliness, ease of running and durability—but as well in 
their great simplicity. 
THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT THE 
operation, cleaning, adjustment or repair 
of a modern De Eaval Cream Separator 
which requires expert knowledge or 
special tools. 
NOR ARE THERE ANY PARTS 
which require frequent adjustment 
in order to maintain good running 
or to conform to varying conditions 
in the every-day use of a cream 
separator. 
THERE IS NO NEED TO FIT 
and adjust parts to get them to¬ 
gether right. They are so 
Complete gearing of 
the De Laval Separa¬ 
tor as it would appear 
if removed intact 
from tlie frame of the 
machine. Note the remarkable simplicity 
of construction. 
carefully and accurately made 
that they cannot help go to¬ 
gether right. All bearings 
and bushings are easy to re¬ 
place. There are no compli¬ 
cated springs, keys, ball bear¬ 
ings or other fittings, that only an expert can properly adjust. 
IN FACT, SO SIMPLE IS THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 
De Eaval machine that a person who has never touched a 
separator before can, if need be, take a modern De Eaval 
machine completely apart within a few minutes and then put 
it together again as quickly. This is something which cannot 
be done outside a shop with any other separator. 
THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT THE MACHINE THAT 
cannot be taken apart, removed or replaced by any one who 
can use a wrench or screw driver. In fact, the only tool which 
is needed in the use and operation of a De Eaval Cream Separa¬ 
tor is the combination wrench and screw driver illustrated below. 
THE ONLY WAY TO PROPERLY UNDERSTAND AND 
appreciate De Eaval superiority to other separators, is to look 
over, and better still to try, a 1912 De Eaval machine. Every 
De Eaval agent is glad to afford prospective buyers the oppor¬ 
tunity to see and try a De Eaval Separator. 
Combination Wrench, furnished with each De Laval machine, 
which is the only tool required in setting up, taking down or 
using the De Laval, the most simple cream separator ever built.
