DAIRY FARMERS. Herd Testing. WITH the increased price of all commodities, and the high cost of land and stock, it behoves every farmer to find : out exactly the butterfat produced by the individual cows in his • herd. To enable him to do this the undersigned are offering THE FAMOUS’ W. & S. WEIGHING AND | SAMPLING MACHINE ; for which they hold the agency in the North. : The accuracy of this machine was recently demonstrated at Mr : C. S. Puckey’s homestead, when Mr T. R. McCarthy, Manager ; of the Kaitaia Dairy Factory, submitted it to a careful test, con- : cerning which he reports as follows :— i “ The weight of milk registered in the container was checked i with a tested scale and found to be correct. Four cows were § tested, from which two different samples were taken, one from. i W. & S. Container, and, after emptying the container, an ordinary dipper sample was taken. ' Results were as follows f W. & S. Machine Ordinary Dipper > No. of Cow ’ Test Sample Test’ ! i 6'2s 6.2$ i . 2 5-3% 5-3% 3 7% 7$ > 4 4-9% 4.9% : I can thoroughly recommend the W. &S. Weighing and ! Sampling Machine, and am thoroughly satisfied that a correct > record of weight of milk and tests of same can be obtained. : Yours faithfully, ! (Signed) T. R. MCCARTHY, Mngr.
