Island Shorthorn Cow Has Thriving Triplets

A grade Shorthorn cow. owned a by Mr. Robert JewsD of Meadow Bank. Sunday night gave birth in two male calves and a female. all of which are alive and healthy. The seven-year-old mother to the triplets had never given a multiple birth before. All the offsprings were born within fifteen minutes of the time of the first birth.

Dr. George Fisher. director of Veterinary Services for the Prov- ince last night said that while he was unable to find what the odds of a cow giving birth to triplet calves were, he stated that it was

rare occurrence and tilt chances of their survival are only one in several hundred thousand.

Mr. Jewell said that previous to the birth of the calves. he was of the opinion that the mother would have twins and he could hardly believe his eyes when the three arrived. Yesterday when the calves were having their picture taken. it was a difficult job to keep the lively creatures quiet long enough to get a shot of them. They were sired by a pure bred Shorthorn bull owned by Mr.
