Mating Every effort should be made to see that the herd calves down as uniformly as possible. In most areas the end of September should see most herds in full milk. Cows should be handmated, and a careful record kept of the mating dates and the particular bull used. Watch should be kept for cows returning to the bull, and if from the records it is obvious that one of the bulls is faulty, he should be immediately replaced. If it is necessary to purchase another bull, a young bull with a good butter-fat backing should be sought. Avoid saleyard purchases wherever possible.
