Butterfat Content Varies 'iso ith Different Cows Variation in the fat percentages of milk are the rule rather- than the exception, according to the Dairy Branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture. When too fine a variation is encountered, the pos- sible causes should be studied and corrected. There are a number of factors which influence•the butterfat con. tent of milk. The individuality of the cow, for instance, must be con- sidered. Individuals in all breeds will vary widely in their tests. There is an average tnst for each cow from which she will not vary to any marked amount from year to year. A low -testing cow should not be kept for breeding purposes. Adding a high -testing cow to a small herd of low -testing cows will slightly increase the av- erage test of the herd. There is a definite variation dur- ing the lactation period. A cow in good condition when freshening will give quite a high test for one to two weeks and will then decline gradually for ten to twelve weeks after which a general rise is indi• cated until drying off. Cows milked, too close to their freshen- ing date will often show a marked decline in test during their last few weeks of lactation. The factors which influence the butterfat test of milk are discussed in Ontario Department of Agricul- ture Circular 179, obtainable at the office of the county Agricultural Representative by residents of Ontario.
