THE COW

Cows are very useful to mankind, in supplying them with milk from which both butter
and cheese are made (Clause) . Their young ones are called calves, and the flesh of
calves is veal. A good Cow will give about fifteen or more quarts of milk a day, but
much depends upon the quality of the pasture she feeds upon (Sentences) . Her age is
told by her horns; after she is three years old a ring is formed every year at the root of
the horn, so that by counting the number of circles, her age may be exactly known
(Sentences) . Cows are sometimes prettily marked with black, brown, and yellow
spots, and, as they lie scattered about a green meadow, add much to the charms of a
landscape (Sentences).
