CELEBRATED CATTLE.
[coScLuDED IN THIS IssuE.l

The Jersey COW as profitable
producer of butter has no superior,
and with the single exception of her
neighbor the Guernsey no approach
able competitor.
Mr.. Warren would have differed
from every other writer on the sub
ject, since last May, il he had. failed
to mention that a Holstein COW won
first prize at the New York Dairy
show 1t is true and it is also true
that the test was about as important
and valuable TO the average dairy
man as If the first prize had been
won by Percherun horse over a
Chinccteague pony for draft. A test
to prove Of service in dairy economy
must be on basis of food consumed.
We do not wish to detract from the
laurels Of Clothilde. Let it be kept
printed in headlines and told every
where in her honor as she is the only
Holstein COW in the whole world
that ever won an important prize
when competing with animals Of
other breeds. The performance Of
this COW no more constitutes or char
acterizes the breed than single
citizen constitutes or characterizes a
city, a single countryman nation,
or a snowflake q winter.
Lust year the Jersey breeders of
Tennessee issued a challenge: "That
the public shall be correctly inform
ed as to the merits of the two breeds
for butter That twenty jersey COWS
in Tennessee shall be tested against
twenty IIolstein-Fresian COWS from
any State in United States" This
challenge is not yet accepted.
The following test is published il
the Country Gentleman one of oui
most reliable agricultural papers :
"At the recent National Agricul
tural Show at Melbourne, Australia
Daisy, a halfbred Ayrshire COW
gave 1073 lbs of milk in two days
from which was made z lbs 81 OF, Oh
9lbs 10} on OF butter per day. An
imported Holstein-Friesian COW
Dairymaid gave 1913 lbs of milk il
two days from which the quantity o.
butter made was A lbs OF, or {
small fraction over 2 lbs per day
Mr.. Warren tells us "Aggie q

304 lbs 81 OF in ninety consecutiv,
days. We have no record of a COW
of any other breed with such re
cord.'
