Show Cow-Testing Advantage. There can be no question that no single thing will lead to better farm practice along the lines of animal husbandry hus-bandry than the improvement in the dairy cow brought about by keeping records of individual production, weeding weed-ing out the unsatisfactory animals, and placing them by those better bred from pure-bred sires. There is' no reason why any dairyman should not himself keep the records necessary for this selection. The fact that most dairymen do not keep such records has led to the .formation of cow testing test-ing associations, so the ordinary dairyman dairy-man may secure information at small cost that in most cases he would not take the trouble to secure for himself. |
