Beals, of Tillamook by his purebred Holstein cow, Lady Dora Aaggie Pontiac, ac cording to an official announcement made by the advanced registry de partment of the Holstein-Friesian as sociation of America. At the age of six years and four months this cow produced 520.7 pounds milk containing 20.603 pounds butterfat equal to 25.75 pounds butter in seven days. Testing for the advanced registry is one of the two chief agencies for improving the capacity of dairy cows. The other is the cow testing associ ation. The latter aids the farmer dairyman to size up his herd, cull out the undesirable animals and put his dairy on a paying basis. The farmer testing of purebred cows for advanced registry, sorts out the most desirable cows and bulls for the improvement of the breed. Purebred bulls from cows holding advanced registry records are in demand fo^.the further improve ment of dairy herds in ‘ cow testing associations. r-v * r* * If' A LIBRARIAN IS NEEDED FOR READING ROOM (Contributed to the Headlight) The library board is very anxious to receive applications for an assist ant librarian.
