these world beating cows developed.
All but ono hail from the United

The breeds OF dairy cattle vary 80
widely In their ability to produce milk
that II is out OF the question to COM
pare them on that basis" says Prof.
Yapp In preface to his table. "The
butter fat production OF tho various
breeds is not go different however.
and II we use fat as the standard
they may be more readily compared.

observe that all OF the breeds with
the exception OF oner' the Ayrshire,
have an average production per COW
