 I iestingly spoke of Jerseys being small because the island on which they are reared is so diminutive. I believe they run in weight from GOO to 1.20O pounds, averaging around $50 to 9o0 pounds. In color a fawn-like appearance predoni- nates but this varies in shade from a deeper yellow to a brown. reddish or silvery fawn. White markings are com mon but no really white individuals are ever seen. White and black are Identification marks of the tongue and the switch. They are a horned race. the horns of no particular form or style. A yellow skin secretion in the ear and about the udders and thighs is mark in much favor by breeders. as they con- sider the markings to be an indication of the quality of the milk.
 
 Our magnificent breeds of Jerseys are the direct descendants of the channel island and when the line goes back to the island breed it's proof of the fact that it is aristocratic. Some think that the original stock was brought to the island from France. for they have as near neighbors the cattle lovers of Brit tany and Normandy. But, regardless of descent the superior quality of the Jer- sevs is due to the islanders who de- yeloped them, for they have ben bred and reared under rigid rules.
