Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dairy Herd Fm. 17. - The square, beefy type of cow, usually a poor milker. Note poorly placed teats. Compare with Fig. 16.considered is the choice of a breed and whether the herd shall be made up of pure-bred or grade animals. There are several well-known breeds of dairy cattle in each having distinct qualities and each having strong partisans. While, undoubtedly, some breeds are better fitted for certain conditions of soil and climate than are others, still the matter of the choice of a breed may well be left to individual preference. In almost any location one may choose a breed for which he has a strong liking, either real or fancied, and be assured that he can establish with it a successful herd. Jerseys, Guernseys, Holsteins, Ayrshires, and even Shorthorns, make a varied and fairly long list of breeds from which to select. The comparative merits of pure-bred and grade cows. Whether pure-bred or grade animals should be selected is a matter on which there may be more difference of opinion. By purely bred animals are meant those that are recorded in the herd-books of their respective breeds. This is the narrow, restricted sense of the term pure-bred, but it is the one in common use in Canada. A grade ammal is the produce of a pure-bred sire on a common, or grade, dam. The produce of a pure-bred sire and a common, or scrub, dam is called a half blood; the produce of a pure-bred sire and a half-blood dam is called a three-quarters blood; a three-quarters blood bredin turn to a pure-bred sire will produce a seven-eighths blood and so on ad tnfinttum. Since only the offspring of pure-bred parents on both sides are eligible to registry in the herd books of any of the dairy breeds, it follows that, no matter how far the process of grading up by. The use of pure-bred sires on grade females is carried, pure breds, in the technical sense, can never be produced. Since pure-bred animals are sought for breeding purposes, the offspring of pure-bied anim3.ls are therefore more valuable and command a higher price than the offspring of grades. Hence, if the value of the calves is taken into consideration, a pure-bred herd is amore productive one, other things being equal, than a grade herd. On the other hand, by the grading-up process referred to, continually selecting the cows that are the best producers, it is entirely possible and by no means difficult to estab lish a herd of grade cows that will equal in the production of milk any herd of pure-bred animals. Hence, if the main product alone is sought, a grade herd may produce as largely as a pure-bred one; but if the by-products are to be takeninto consideration, as it was stated at the outset that they should be, a pure-bred herd certainly has an advantage over a grade herd of equal productive capacity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dairy Herd Improvement Letter, Vol. 59: May 1983 Among official records, percent were unusable because of termination code 9, down from percent for 1981. (termination code 9 indicates that records should not be used for genetic evaluations because production information is not reliable.) Nearly 42 percent of official records had missing sire identification, which was the primary reason for exclusion of official records. Only percent of official records were excluded because of errors. Counts for records with missing sire identification or errors cannot be compared with counts for 1981 because of a change in editing procedures in 1981. About percent of official records were excluded because of conflicts, down from percent for 1981. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dairy-Herd-Improvement Association Program The supervisor visits each farm one day each month. Usually he arrives in the, afternoon. That evening he weighs the feed Of each cow, weighs the milk, and takes a sample Of the milk for testing. He records all figures in the barn book, from which he transfers them to the herd-record book. The barn book is the supervisor's record of the work, and the herd-record book remains in the possession Of the farmer as his record Of the work. The next morning the supervisor again weighs the feed, weighs the milk, and takes a sample Of the milk for testing. He mixes the two samples Of each cow's milk thor oughly and then tests the composite sample for percentage Of butter fat. The day the test is made is considered as the middle day of the testing period, and the record Of that day is multiplied by the number of days in the testing period. From the herd-record book the farmer can at any time get the record Of his herd and Of each cow for every month from the beginning of the testing year. He can also get totals for each cow. The herd records include feed cost and production Of milk and butterfat. The individual-cow records include all this and the number Of pounds Of each kind Of feed consumed. At the end of the testing year the farmer can get from the herd record book the yearly summary Of his herd and Of each cow. AS the years pass he can compare the yearly records and determine what progress his herd is making and what progress each cow is making. If the herd-record books are filled out completely and carefully, the farmer can get all this information quickly, and from this knowledge of the records Of his cows he can go forward, without guesswork, in the improvement of his herd. With a well-kept herd-record book, the farmer is able to build up his herd. Rapidly through careful selection, planned breeding, and proper feeding.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dairying for Profit: Or the Poor Man's Cow In the winter of 1891-1892, I was requested by Mr. Hugh Graham, of Montreal, Publisher of the Family Herald and Weekly Star, to write some articles on Dairy Matters, for his paper. To fully appreciate the compliment paid me, one would need to know the enormous and rapidly increasing circulation of this great paper. As a result, I received so many kindly letters about my Dairy Articles and so many requests for further information, that it led to my collecting the letters with some others I had written, and adding to them all I thought necessary to cover the ground.

Download or read book Christmas At Eagle Pond written by Donald Hall and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald Hall draws on his own childhood memories and gives himself the thing he most wanted but didn't get as a boy: a Christmas at Eagle Pond. It’s the Christmas season of 1940, and twelve-year-old Donnie takes the train to visit his grandparents' place in rural New Hampshire. Once there, he quickly settles into the farm’s routines. In the barn, Gramp milks the cows and entertains his grandson by speaking rhymed pieces, while Donnie’s eyes are drawn to an empty stall that houses a graceful, cobwebby sleigh. Now Model A's speed over the wintry roads, which must be plowed, and the beautiful sleigh has become obsolete. When the church pageant is over, the gifts are exchanged, and the remains of the Christmas feast put away, the air becomes heavy with fine snowflakes—the kind that fall at the start of a big storm—and everyone wonders, how will Donnie get back to his parents on time?
