VALLEY For the past several years there has been a Dairy Herd improvement association operating in Bear River valley. Very little publicity has been given this, but it was thought that it would be a good idea to report monthly the outstanding herds and the outstanding cows of the association. Starting with January, 1953, there were 17 herds on test with 281 cows. Of this number of cows there were 42 cows that produced over 50 pounds of butterfat. . There were 51 cows dry and the other 179 produced below 50 pounds of butterfat. The herds are divided into three different groups; those that have 3 to 12 cows; those with 13 to 20 cows; and those with over 21 cows. The following herds produced high in these groups: John Ebehhard with 8 cows averaged 1469 pounds of milk, 3.6 test; and 53 pounds of but- cows, averaged 1012 pounds of milk; 3.5 test; and 35 pounds of butterfat. The following individual cows produced over 60 pounds of butterfat during the month: Rodney Morrison's Ada produced 1790 pounds of milk and 82 pounds fat. W. E. Kerr's cow No. 14 produced 1610 pounds of milk and 71 pounds fat. John Eberhard's cow Bess produced 1940 pounds of milk and 64 pounds fat. LeRoy Atkinson's cow Ruth, produced 1110 pounds milk and 67 pounds fat. J. H. Sorenson's cow Charm produced 1540 pounds milk and 66 pounds fat." Ray Hunsaker's cow No. 17 produced 1000 pounds milk and 65 pounds fat. Rav Hunsaker's cow No. 11 produced 900 pounds milk and 62 pounds fat. John Eberhard's cow Annetta produced 1610 pounds milk and terfat. Ray Hunsaker, with 20 cows 65 pounds fat. H. Smith Rose's cow Bambi averaged 792 pounds milk; 5.7 1490 pounds milk and of butterfat. 45 produced and pounds test; Rodney R. Morrison, with 26 60 pounds fat. 305 Day Record as follows: Lbs.
