Arthur Brisbane draws an analogy between people and dairy cattle to discuss productivity and value. He cites Professor Babcock’s test for dairy cows and notes the challenge of identifying non‑producers among humans. He recalls the Dickinson County cow test showing top cows yielding 546 pounds of butter fat annually.
The article argues dairy cattle teach a broader lesson for workers and employers. It compares a $3.60 cow and a 65 cent cow, stressing butter fat quality over milk quantity, and extends to human effort, will power, and intelligent labor as the true measures of value, citing F. E. Murphy and the famed cow Femce Johanna Bess Fayne.
