Where One Cow is Kept
Families that keep only one cow should endeavor to have the best animal that can be procured. A cow for the family should give a large flow of milk for at least 10 months of the year, and the milk should contain not less than 4 per cent of butter fat. It is better to have a cow that gives even richer milk, but the majority of family cows are selected without regard to merits in that respect. It is difficult to rear the calves in such cases, hence in purchasing the family cow it will be profitable to pay a high price for a superior animal.
