. The dairy cow. A monograph on the Ayrshire breed of cattle. Ayrshire cattle; Milk. 228 JERSEY MILK. COW, but occupies a medium position,—the practical difFerences between tliese three types of milk being the greater imiformity of constitution of the milk, after standing, in one case than the other; the difier- ence in the rapidity and completeness of separation of the butter-globule, or cream; the greater or less occurrence of the granules, or extremely small glob- ules. The milk-globule of the Jersey breed is larger than is the corresponding globule of the other breeds here considered, and there are fewer X813 The envelope to this globule seems weaker than the corresponding envelope in the other breeds, and more readily ruptured in the churn. (See Experi- ment X.) It is also more readily acted upon by the chemical changes induced in the milk by time. When the old cream of these breeds is examined micro- scopically, it is found that the Jersey globule is more readily broken or distorted by pressure than the others. Practically, therefore, this milk should be skimmed at an earlier period of the souring change than should the other milks. I feel assured,.
