TESTING COWS FOR ADVANCED REGISTRY. 31 
RECORD OF FIVE DAIRY HERDS. 
In cooperation with the owners, the Station has secured the 
milk and fat records for one year of the individual cows in five 
herds. The Station furnished the milk sheets, loaned the milk 
scales, and collected and tested the samples. The owners of 
the herds weighed and recorded the amount yielded by each 
cow, and once each month took a composite sample of six 
















milkings.
