M. A. O’CALLAGHAN, Chief Dairy 
Expert. 
The four cows described here will give 
local farmers an idea of the standard to 
which the Americans have reached in the 
development of the best types of dairy 
cattle. The Jersey, the Guernsey, the 
Holstein, and the Ayrshire are 
represented. Their yields are something 
phenomenal, but when the Americans go 
for a championship they generally. make 
things move along, and they certainly 
have obtained some wonderful récords 
from representative specimens

of the 
different dairy breeds. No doubt in ob- 
taining the yields given, great skill and 
™. care have been put forth in the feeding of - 
the individual animals, and it is a pity 
that instead of giving the record for 
twelve months we have not the record for 
a milking period only, showing at the 
same time the number of days the animals 
were in milk. 
We will first take the Holstein cow 
at the top, not only in Holsteins, but itis 
claimed she has beaten all ais cows of 
any breed in the world, Her record for 
one year, namely, 27,432 lb. of milk, 
which gave an average test of 3°64 per 
cent. of butter fat, or a butter-fat yield 
of 9981 lb., is nothing short of phe- 
nomenal. She is owned by Mr. W. J. 
Gillett, of Wisconsin. She is in shapean 
almost perfect milking type. Her udder 
development is great, and her constitution 
as evidenced by her well developed body 
standing on short legs, is considerably 
above the ordinary. She has the flat 
incurving thigh of all great milkers, and 
the high arched flank, together with very 
prominent milk veins. Her eye is bright 
and prominent, and her nostrils large and 
open, with a strong mouth, all denoting 
points which are sought for by every 
dairyman. Her fattest is high for a 
Holstein, but with selection there is no 
reason why this great breed should not 
prove to be up to general standard for 
fat. 
The Guernsey cow, Yeksa Sunbeam 
comes next in yield of butter-fat: She 
also looks plain owing to having been 
dehorned, but she isa very typical ani- 
mal, with plenty of substance and milking 
conformation. Her mouth is yery well 
developed, and her neck is strong without 
being coarse. The thigh is very flat, and 
the flank is arched, though not quite 80 
much as in the Holstein. She is a_ little 
high at the setting on of the tail, but this 
is really a dairy point. Her yield is 
14,920 lb. of milk for one year, with eD 
average test of 5 74 per cent. of butter-fat 
yield of 857:15 Ib. She is owned by the 
Rietbrock Estate, Wincousin, and is the 
champion Guernsey cow of the world. 
The Jersey cow, Jacoba Irena, looks 
an animal capable of great deeds in the 
way of milk and butter yields. 4

developed udder. Her nostrils are very
