GATHERED HERE AND THERE

Roberta of Island Farm. a mature
Jersey COW owned and tested by &.
C. Higgins OF Levant, has completed
her fourth official production test
with the highest 305-day record that
has vet been made in Maine. In this
latest test started when she was eight
years and 10 months of age Roberta
produced 6S460 lbs. of butterfat and
1928 lbs of milk in sos days. Her
milk averaged ..c5 per cent butterfat
and she was with calf for 191 days
of the ten months, thus qualifying
for a gold medal in addition TO the
state championship.
With this splendid record she su-
percedes Sir James's Dame Jessie,
the former 305-day Maine champion,
over all ages, which held this honor
with her record OF 6S1.45 lbs. of but
terfat and 12649 lbs. of milk.
The apple crop in Whitefeld and
vicinity is about one half the size
far below the age-owing to the
long spell of dry weather while the
