In rogard to ProfoBsor Johnson's nay nbout

I would suggest thnt wo liavo n different

tho irilliillon was caused by tho Hying tick,
In iiuwllug about tho horxo doposllim; his

closod In rolatlon lo breed of cows host for
milk, or for dairymen to food for milk , and
for gonoMl utility, tho following testimony
was givon as reported In tho Ohio lxrmcr :
Mr. Olds has kopt nothing but grado Short
horns for years, and ho regarded thorn as
much moro prodtablo than any others; thoy
woro good milkers, ond woro yaluablo whon
wanted for beof. Mr. Taylor had an Ayr
HUlro holler that emno In at two voara old.
and for sixty days aftor gavo forty-two nnd
throo-quartor poundsofmllk poruay. on the
avorage. This yoar, at throe yoars old, nbo
nyoragod thlrty-l'our pounds por day. His
neighbor, Mr. Fuller had Bovoral Ayshlres
nnd thoy averaged ten pouudH per day moro
than his other good cowh, on samo food E.
II. Loo had an Ayrshire that emtio In at two
years, nnd gave an nvoragoor thlrty-flvo
pounds por day for 100 dayH all hoforo sho
was thrto yearn old. Mr. Iloovo bad a throo
yoarold Ayrshire that gave an ayorago of
thlrty-ono pounds for tnlrtvono days, and
gavo horowu woight in milk lu nlno-teen
days. Ho had a grado Shorthorn, ulso, that
avorngod forty pounds n day for nlnoty days;
Hho wan a largo cow, and on oxlra feed. Mr.
Taylor said ono of tho Shorthorns woro good
milkers, but It was only occasionally one
waH found; thoy uro not reliable to brood for
mllkoni. Ayrshlroa woro almost certain lo
produco good milkers, any time; thoy were
vory docile lutolllunnt. cmsv kcoueiH. Mr.
Untos lind a two-yoar-old Jorsoy heifer, catno
In at eighteen mouths, and for seven months
thorosfior averaged seventeen lli, of mill:
por day. Tho milk was much Htiporlor lu
quality to that glv6ii by his other cows.
Tho general verd let was that for quantity
of milk no breod equaled tho Ayrshlroa In
proportion to feed consumed.
