DAIRY
GOOD FORM OF DAIRY cow

By w. c. RICHARDS. North Dakota

The form which good dairy cattle
posses results from the milk produc-
ing functions which they develop.
There are four main centers Of activ-
ity, the digestive system, the milk
secreting system or udder, the circu-
latory system. and the nervous sys-
TEN. To produce large quantities OF
milk, IL Is necessary that COW (or
a bull II he becomes the sire of cows
capable OF producing a large guam
tity of milk have these systems well
developed. Good producing cows and
good dairy sires invariably have good
dairy form, because II Is the high de-
gree OF development of these parts
known as the digestive, secretive, cir
culatory and nervous systems which
give the dairy animal the dairy
form.
A COW that has a good dairy form
has a lean appearance over every
part of the body which indicates a ner-
vous temperament and that she util-
ICES a large proportion OF the feed
consumed for the making Of milk She
has a wedge shaped appearance, view
ed from above, in front and from the
side. The wedge shape appearance
from above results from the narrow
projecting wethers which form the
apex of the wedge and the large bar
rel, below, the base OF tie wedge. The
wedge viewed from In front is made
by the narrowness OF the COW in
front compared with the width at the
the region of the hips. The wedge
shaped appearance from the sides

BREEDING STOCK FOR DAIRY
Strong constitution-Real Good
Sires Are Rare Thing.

CBy PROF. w. J. KENNEDY. Iowa Sta
tion)
In selecting dairy cattle the real
test must be the scales and the Bah
cock tester The COW is a machine to
convert food into milk; thus she must
have large middle and strong con.
stitution to insure the best results.
She must also have a large udder,
large milk wells, large crooked milk
veins and good-sized teats.
Her head should be clean and an.
gular In appearance. with the eyes
standing out prominently. The neck
should be rather long and lean in ap.
pearance; the shoulders pointed and
the backbone rather prominent. The
skin should be loose and soft to the
touch. In selecting herd bulls either
mature animals which have already
demonstrated their worth as sires or
younger animals from high.testing
dams and sires only should be used
The best and surest will always fol.
low the use OF mature sire which has
sired heifers with good records. A
good dairy bull should be kept until
he is twelve or fifteen years old: in
fact, as long as he is sure sire Real
good sires are so rare that when we do
find one he should die only OF old age.
All breeders OF dairy cattle should
secure yearly tests on each and every
COW in the herd. Shorter tests do not
really mean very much. 1t is the COW
that stays by her job that is really val
liable.
