CHAPTER III 



Breeds of Dairy Cattle and Mode of Recording in 

 Each Breed 



List the breeds normally classified as dairy cattle with the names 

 and addresses of their secretaries and the offices where the regis- 

 tration takes place. Visit one of these offices and see how the 

 business of registration is carried on, if this can be done. Make 

 out proper registration papers for a calf and an adult bull or cow. 

 Make out proper transfer papers. 



Review conditions for registration both past and present. How 

 are imported cows registered? Write a 250-word paper comparing 

 methods of registration in the different breeds. Answers to ques- 

 tions like the following should be noted: How do unregistered ani- 

 mals on the Jersey Isle differ from those in this country and what 

 are the differences in mode of registration?
