Advanced Kaglntry• About twenty years ago gouts of the prominent American breeders of Holstein -Friesian cattle, impressed with the importance of the above queetlon, started what la known as an "advanced registry," in which uowe could be recorded only after making a milk or butter re- cord greater than a certain high standard. We syetnm of registry was greatly Improved some eight years ago by the adoption of what is know , ae "offc el testing.' Under this plan all tests made are directly supervised by a capable dairyman sent as a representative of an. experiment station or agri- cultural college, who' sees the cows milked, weighs the mllk and tests same In duplicate with the Babcock tester, The correctnees of these taste must be sworn to by all con- cerned In conducting them. The ape tem has now been adopted by the Guernsey, A,y rehire and Jersey AB- eoelallone of the United States, but in Canada only the Holstein-Frleelan breeders have recognized the impor- tance of the movement. They have recently retabltehed A " Record of Merit." In which a cow may be entered only atter making en official teat for production of butter fat. The standard requires that a two- year-old heifer shall produce In seven days at least eight pounds of huller hit, n. three-year uhI heifer ten pontnde, a four-year-old 00w eleven anti a half pounds, and a mature cow thirteen pounds. This In the Wehrle standard adopted by any association, and It will doubt - leas have a tery beneficial effe:t on the butter producing qualities of the breed in Canada. Other breeders of dairy cattle might well take up title natter ales Some of the testa made by Can- aallaU Holetelne, nearly all under the eupervleton of Prof. Dean, of the Ortarlo Agricultural College, are given herewith. These are all for a period of eleven days. The amount of butter may lie computed approximately by adding one-NI:tlt to the amount of butter fat, since good butter averages shout 85 per Dent. fat.
