Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butter Tests of Registered Jersey Cows The butter records in this volume arc those reported to the Club from Aug. 1, 1898, to July 15, 1902. Except those designated "confirmed," they have been received for publication on the affidavits of the managers of the tests or the certificates of the owners of the cows tested. The tests designated "confirmed" were made in accordance with the rule of the Club requiring the application of the Babcock method of ascertaining the butter-fat at each milking by an appointee of the Club, or by the officials of any State, Provincial or national experiment station, in confirmation of the amount of butter produced by churning. The tests are arranged alphabetically. When a number of tests of the same animal occur, they are arranged in order of date, if for sevendays, and according to period, if for longer, theshorter periods comingfirst. All tests are for the period of seven days, unless Otherwise stated. In the list of Tested Cows in Order of Merit as butter-producers, the best record only of each animal is given. In the list of Sires with their Tested Daughters, arranged alphabetically, the names of the tested cows are arranged under their sires' names according to the amounts of their tests, the largest coming first. When an animal has more than one test, the largest only is given. The same arrangement hasbeenfollowed in the list of Dams with their Tested Daughters.
