SANDERVILLE GUERNSEY
COW MAKES GOOD RECORD
During August More Than 100
Pounds Butter Produced
Sandersvillle, Ga.—ls will be of
interest to dairymen in Georgia
to know that Hallowe'en Girl
108418, a registered Guernsey cow
bred and owned by Dr. Wm. Rawl
ings at Fern Creet Guernsey Farm
at this place, is making a record
that few other cows have ever
equalled. During the month of
August, according to official figlree
made known today by W. H.
Howell, in charge of the herd, this
cow produced one hundred and
one-half pounds of butter from
1,497 pounds of mild. Hallowe’en
Girl is only four years old and
since she will reach her highest
production at th e age of about eight
years she gives promise of much
higher production aB she matures.
This is one of many fine cows
making records at Fern Crest and
is proof conclusive that Georgia
farmers can increase their income
by raising better cows.
