Fill the tin cupwith milk to the zero mark, add the rennet, mix thor-oughly and allow it to stand.

The variationsin the tests of milk of single cows from milking to milk-ing or from day to day, are greater than many cow-owners suspect. There seems to be no uniformity in thisvariation, except that the quality of the milk producedgenerally improves with the progress of the period oflactation; even this may not be noticeable, however,except when the averages of a number of tests made atdifferent stages during the lactation period are comparedwith each other. When a cow gives her maximumquantity of milk, shortly after calving, the quality ofher milk is generally poorer (by one per cent, of fat orless) than when she is drying off. Strippers milk istherefore as a rule richer in fat than the milk of freshcows. 156. By testing separately every milking of a numberof cows through their whole period of lactation, theresults obtained have seemed to warrant the followingconclusions
