demonstrates that the bulls were wei
selected. OF the 81 daughters of as
ISOLATION bulls for which the 1918 rec
ords are available, 16 excelled theil
dams in butter-fat production, and Il
excelled their dams in production OF
both milk and butter fat.
The average yearly production OF
the dams was $500 pounds of milk
and 219 pounds of butter fat. The
average yearly production of the 81
daughters was 6,523 pounds of milk
and 263 pounds of butter fat. In milk
production the daughters excelled
their dams by 963 pounds or II per
cent, and in butter-fat production by
A pounds, or 20 per cent. These are
not as large gains as some other bull
associations have given, but are well
worth while.
Because of cooperative ownership
the bulls cost the farmers no more
than would have been paid for scrubs;
it costs no more to feed the daugh-
ters than to feed the dams, and ii
costs much less to feed the bulls be-
cause there were not so many Of them.
The increased production, therefore,
was all net profit.
