TESTING DAIRY COWS

A department bulletin suggests that
the fat test may be made at FREQUENT
intervals, say once a week. Another
bulletin advises that a composite test
be made by taking a small sample of
milk each day, mixing these and test
Ing the miXturc at the end of n week.
Since the milk given in the morning
usually differs somewhat from that
given at night, 1T is more reliable TO
take samples of both morning and the
nights milk for testing. BY keeping a
continuous record of the weight of
milk procured, and making a composite
test of the milk for one week each
month a very close estimate of the
milk and butter production of the cow
viii be secured. The approximate
amount of butter can be calculated by
adding one-siXth to the butter fat.
