"How to Select Cows" by Willis P. Hazard is an insightful farming manual from the 1800s. It introduces the Guenon system, a method for picking the best dairy cows by looking at unique markings called "escutcheons," supposedly linked to milk production. Through an introduction and practical advice, the book teaches farmers how to spot these markings, classify cows, and boost their herd's milk output, improving the financial outcomes of their farms. He urges readers to implement this knowledge to improve their farming practices.
