Colman, Supervisor of Official Tests for Oregon, of the Oregon Agricultural College, Furnishes the Official Records Brought Down to Monday, December 10th A Work That Requires a Great Deal of Care and Ab solute Accuracy (The following article has beenlbility does not stop with the act- furnished for this Slogan number of The Statesman by. H. N. Col man, Supervisor of official tests for Oregon; connected with the Oregon Agricultural College. The records are brought down to Mon day, Dec. 10th; and are therefore right down to date; the latest complete information to be pub lished anywhere. Mr. Colman i3 working on the standings of the animals in the other dairy breeds, and they will bo brought down to date ready for publication by February lst:j Official testing may be defined as a test for milk and butterfat production under the supervision of a qualified Representative of an agricultural college or experiment station for a" definite period of time. Each breed association hag divided its records into classes ac cording to ago placing different requirements for these various classes. All records for Oregon are conducted under the supervis ion of the Oregon Agricultural College. ' : Many breeders do not realize the responsibility the OFCgon Ag ricultural college has in the of ficial lest work in Oregon. It is the duty of the Oregon Agricul tural college to pee that the milk record is actually of, the milk pro dncod during tho test period, to see that each milking is properly and accurately tested lor Its but ler fat content, and to, make. a complete report to the respective breed ossoclation.

She is Darling's Jolly I-as.sie, owned by Pickard T.ros. She produced 11 11. -8 pounds of butter Tat in her year's tet. She. is trawling up towards the 1200 pound mark, . ia . . . i.. ual testing, however, for the name of the Oregon Agricultural col lege is signed to each test report, vouchsafing to the public that such test is accurate. Thus indirectly is signed the name of each tax payer supporting the college. To protect such records all official test work is governed by certain rules and regulations. The exper iment station and agricultural colleges working throujih the American Dairy Science associa tion formulate these rules. It is therefore the duty of each repre sentative of the Oregon Agricul tural college conducting official test to follow the rules, and it i3 the duty of each breeder doing official testing to sco that these rules are carried out. The purposes of official: testing an (1) to secure information whkh can be used in the selec tion of animals for breeding pur poses, with a view to improvement of offspring: (2) to demonstrate to the public the improvement which has been secured through selection and breeding. Official testing is carried on at this time under two general typs of tests, namely: 1 YEARLY, where tbc supervisor ia present at every milking, for one or two days each month (depending upon the breed) weighing and testing the milk. This test is U3ed in all breeds. It is spoken of as a semi-official test by tho Holstein and Shorthorn breeds. (2) SEVEN-DAY OR LONGER, where the supervisor Is present as above for 4 y 4, A .. 4 Vi Si:, at which Oregon Jersey breeders are shootir.?. It will be reached; pcThnps not soon, but finally, and by a Salem district cow. Said and Itcpratrtl For, as The Statesman has said and repeated many Jimes, the fu ture world records for production of Jersey cows will be made by Sa seven or more consecutive days. This test is used only in the Hol stein and Shorthorn breeds. This test is spoken of by these breeds as an official test. The benefits to be realized from official testing may be sum marized as follows: (1) It pro vides a basis for proper selection, breeding, and feeding sb essential for developing a high producing and profitable herd. (2)It in creases the value of the cow, her offspring, and other relatives. (3) It stimulates personal pride in the development of the kind of dairy stock which will improve the herd. In order to aid in having well trained and responsible men for positions as herdsmen and as su pervisors of tests the Oregon Ag ricultural college is giving a HERDSMAN'S AND COW TEST Clasa A and AA WOELD'S EE Name til tl.
