recently in the herd of F. R. 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

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

the undesirable animals and put his

possible to make the work more lucra
