The records of the tester, Mr.. Noe
Buchanan, further show that th'
herd of H. S. Curtis is deserving o
special mention. OF the 80 cow
comprising this herd, Is produced
over 40 pounds of fat, and of Thu
number 10 are in the list giver
above. Such records are the result
of good dairy breeding and goot
dairy management.
Comparing this months record
with that of last year for the same
month, it is found that for the pres
ent month there are twice as many
cows producing over 40 pounds o
fat and six times as many producing
over so pounds of fat. This is prog
ress of the right sort and If con
tinued should establish a reputation
for the cows of this section.
