Characteristics and Origin of Five
Most Prominent Breeds of
* Cattle in Georgia
Five Dairy Breeds
Five breeds of dairy "cattle have
attained considerable prominence in
the United States—the Ayrshire,
Brown Swiss, Guernsey, Holstein-
Friesan, and Jersey, each of which has
certain distinct charactertistics not
found in the other breeds, but no one
breed excels in all points. Each breed
is considered superior to the others
‘in certain particulars, and is dis
cussed in Farmers’ Bulletin 983 of
lthe United States Department of Ag
‘riculture, a publication which will be
found valuable to dairy-cattle breed
iers.
~ In selecting a breed, a dairyman
‘should take local conditions and mar
ket requirements inté consideration
in connection with the characteristics
of the various breeds. He should give
weight to the fact that a breed is al
ready established .in his community.
The predominance' of a certain breed
in a section offers many advantages.
For instance, a market is established,
surplus stock may be disposed of to
better advantage, co-operative adver
tising may be used, and bulls may be
bought co-operatively or exchanged
readily among breeders. Personal
preference for a certain breed should
not be allowed to cause the selection
of a breed unsuited to local conditions.
| Origin of Ayrshires
The Ayrshire breed originated in
‘the countye of Ayr in southwestern
|e F s
granted to Guyton Parmer Reynolds on James
Otey Hardin's estate.

?cghmd and has only been sufficient- !
y developed to be established as a
type within the last hundred years.
This breed is not well kgew in many
sections of the United States—New
England, New York l.zi,,afnnsylvaniai
probably containing thé largest num-‘
ber of its representatives. There is
a small distribution in the Middle At- ‘
lantic States and the Pacific North
west. e \
The color of this breed varies from
a medium red to a very dark mahog
any brown and white. The -cattle
Rave long horns which turn outward,
then forward and upward. Ayrshires
are characterized by quick, brisk
actions. They have a slightly nervous
disposition and a pronounced ability
as “rustlers’”’ — the obtaining of a
livelihood on scant pastures. Cows
of this breed average 1,000 pounds
in weight and bulls average about
1,600 pounds.
Ayrshire milk has comparative little
color and has small fat globules, be
cause of which the milk stands ship
ping well without churning. The per
centage of butter fat is medium.
Brown Swiss Breed
The Brown Swiss breed, which does
not ‘have a widespread distribution
in the United States, originated in the
Canton of Schwyz, in Switzerland,
and is found principally in New York
and Wisconsin,
The cattle vary in color from a
light-gray, mouse color, or brownish
dun to dark brown. They are mild
and docile and are excellent grazers,
especially on rough land. Cows aver
age about 1,250 pounds in weight and
bulls from 1,500 to 2,500 pounds.
This breed ranks well in milk pro
duction, with a moderate percentage
of fat.
Guernsey Characteristics
The Guernsey breed developed on
the Channel Islands of Guernsey and
Alderney, although probakly the pa
rent stock came from Normandy,
France. This breed has maintained
a steady growth in numbers and pop
ularity in the courrtry, and its largest
numbers are found in the Eastern and
middle Western States.
The characteristic colors of Guern
seys are some shade. of fawn and
white. Cows average about 1,050
pounds and the bulls about 1,600
pounds in weight. Guernsey milk is
noted for its extremely yellow color
and high percentage of butter fat.
Holstein Cattle
The Holstein-Friesan, commonly
known as the Holstein breed, origin
ated in the northern part of Holland,
where it has been bred for centuries.
Holsteins have grown greatly in num
bers and popularity in recent years
in this country and are most numer
ous in the United States in the middle
Atlantic, middle Western and Pacific
sections.
Holstein cattle are of black and
white color. They are docile and even
tempered, not good “rustlers,” and do
best when plenty of feed is available.
'Holstein cows average about 1,250
lpounds and bulls 1,800 pounds in
weight. The average of milk produc
tion is high, but the percentage of
butter fat is comparatively low.
Features of the Jerseys
Jersey cattle, the most numerous
breed in the United States, originated
in the Island of Jersey. Jerseys and
Guernseys probably had the same
foundation stock, but have been de
veloped toward different ideals so that
‘the breeds now differ in a number of
particulars.
| " Jerseys vary considerably in color.
Shades of fawn, squirrel gray, mouse
color and very dark brown are com
mon Jerseys have & highly organized
nervous system and are usually some
what excitable, responding quickly to
good treatment and good feed. Cows
‘average about 900 pounds and bulls
1,500 pounds in weight. The Jersey
cow gives rich, yellow-colored milk
and is an excellent butter fat pro
ducer. {
WOUNDED SOLDIERS
TO BE RE-EDUCATED
“Find the wounded soldier and tell
his of his wonderful opportunity for
training at government expense’ is
the slegan of the county agents and
home demonstration agents of the
Georgia State College of Agriculture
this week.
The Federal Vocation Board,
through its Atlanta office at 823 For
syth Building, has asked the Exten
sion Agents to help find all the men
who have even the slightest disability
incurred in either foreign or domes
tic military service during the world
war.
Any man with a disability, however
slight, has the right to apply for re
education at the government ex
nense. He need not neccssarily have
suffered a great injury as the loss of
a limb or an eye. Too, there is no
reville, drill and retreat to vocation
al .training fotr disabled men.
The government will train men
either in shops or in schools for all
kinds of occupations. The private
will receive in case he wishes to en
ter an educational institution, his tui
tion, laboratory fees, books, etc., and
in addition $65 per month for board
and lodging. Officers will receive
their base pay for the last month in
the army.
If there is a wounded soldier in
vour comunity get in touch with the
county agept, home demonstration
agent or Red Cross. | |

“Well, I'll be ——" l
THE MARIETTA JOURNAL
There is at ‘present at mission from
the Philippines in the United States
asking complete independence for the
islands. ]
We see no reason why they should
not be given it, but with the same
sort of guardianship which we give
Cuba.
Here is what Governor Harrison,
who has been for six years governor
general of the islands, said on the
subject of Philippine independence
while speaking at the Knickerbocker
Club in New York:
“By temperament, by experience,
by financial ability, in every way the
ten millions of Filipinos are entitled
to be free from every government
except of their own choice. They
are intelligent enough to decide for
themselves.
“I have found the native Filipino
official to be honest, efficient and as
capable of administering executive
positions as any men I have met any-l
where in the world.
“These officials are today govern
ing one thousand municipalities and
forty-two provinces, economically, ef
ficiently, and for the good of the en
tire people. They have a native con
gress including many graduates of
Yale, Princeton, Harvard and other
American universities. Other mem
bers are graduates of Santo Tomas
and other Philippine Universities, and
in education and ability they compare
favorably with any I know. {
“They have leaders like Speaker
Osmena, of the House of Representa
tives, and President Quezon, of the
Senate, who would adorn any office. |
“The Philippines are away ahead
of the United States in successful
government ownership and operation
of public utilities. |
“The government took hold of the
steam railways and made them pay
a profit of 1,000,000 pesos a year
more than under private ownership.,
“It took hold of the highways and
we have 7,000 miles of the best maca
damized roads in the world. The
Manila city government is about to
take over the street railways and the
Fas and electric plants, while the
territorial government is arranging
for ownership and control of the coal
‘supply.
