Famous HoIstein Recently Came
Through With New High Mark of
40.56 Pounds Of Butter.

"You can't keep a good man down"
and this aphorism is as true Of cows
as it is of men. In proof of which is
the news that the famous purebred
Holstein, Tilly Alcartra, is again at her
old tricks Of rolling up records. She
recently dropped her sixth calf, heif-
er, and gave such promise of another
successful lactation period ahead OF
her that her owners decided to put
her on test.
She came through with new mark
for seven days with 40.56 pounds of
butter out of 1901 pounds of milk,
which shows the pace she is making In
the yearly test she is on.
With this record she is the twenty
fifth "40-poundn Holstein COW.
lilly Alcartra has to her credit the
production Of 30.4514 pounds of milk
yielding 1,fS903 pounds Of butter in
