Ayrshire Heifer.

In Scotland, in Canada and in the
states she has been bred not for fam
lily booms, or individual phenomenal
excellencies, but all along the line she
has been pushed as a breed Of uni
formly dairy superiority.
This is / believe greatly to her adj
vantage, and greatly to the advantage
of all purchasers of Ayrshire cows,
for the uniformity of her dairy excel
lence makes all buyers pleased with
their purchases and maintains the gen.
eral good name of the Ayrshire COW.
In studying the results of the testing
for advanced registry the two facts
are strongly brought out that there is
great uniformity in the breed in pro-
duction at the pail, and while we can
not boast of any world beater in one
or two individual COWS, we rejoice in
the fact that there are none very poor
the general run being from good fair
COWS to very superior ones.

PROGRESS OF AYRSHIRE cow
Experiments at Iowa Station Show
Breed Making Rapid Strides in
Popularity.

During the past few years, since the
Ayrshire Breeders association insti.
tuted official tests conducted by and
under the supervision of the expert
ment stations, the Ayrshire COW has
made rapid progress in popularity, as
the perfect dairy COW, writes C. Nj.
WlnSlow, secretary of the American
Ayrshire Breeders association. in an
exchange. This official testing has
brought to the front a class Of dairy
Ayrshires, noted for utility, and has
more and more Influenced the breed
ers in trying to eliminate any defects
she might have, and bring to the front
her remarkable qualities as a profit
able dairy COW for every day service.
One hopeful feature of the breed is
that she has built herself up on all
lines of dairy utility in dairy con-
formation and dairy lines of beauty.
and the Ayrshire COW stands today
unique among the dairy breeds, with
no aristocracy of family distinction,
but maintains her popularity from her
individual and breed qualities.
While there are minor differences
in her appearance, under different
breeders, and in different countries.
the Ayrshire is an Ayrshire wherever
found, and shows the same strong
breed characteristics, of shapely I'D
der, strong constitution and vigorous
appetite, shows herself to be a great
dairy COW under any and all condi-
CiOnS and carries the TYNE of the
breed in her every act

Historically there were three distinct king

that either of these included at any time all
