grand daughters of the original
cows has been more than twice the
amount given by their grand dams
and with an average increase of
one-third for the entire herd of
Holsteins over the amount obtain- !
'd from their grand dams. In the !
instance of the Galloway-Holstein !
I hybrids, a seven-year-old cow has j
■ this year produced a little more j
I than 12,000 pounds of milk testim
