The butter made from this milk, so far as deter- mined by a single experiment, was fine in grain, light in color, and displayed remarkable keeping quality. Perhaps the " keeping " power is the direc- tion of the usefulness of this breed. My experi- ments with the milk of this cow have, however, been of too limited a nature to allow me to dwell very particularly on my results. We will now compare the milk of the three breeds, and summarize in part our preceding showings. Experiment XIII.
