NOTICE.

OWING to circ.u.mstances beyond the control of the Committee of Publication, or of the Committees on the Pedigrees of the various cla.s.ses of stock, it has been impossible to publish the first volume of the Herd Record of the a.s.sociation of Breeders of Thorough-bred Neat Stock at an earlier day. The desire to obtain as large a representation of stock as possible, and to extend the advantages of the a.s.sociation as widely among breeders as they could, has induced the committees on the various cla.s.ses of stock to hold open their books and the delays incident upon tracing doubtful pedigrees, through in many instances a long correspondence with owners and breeders, have prevented them from furnishing the copy to the Publication Committee, in season to have the work finished sooner. Every care has been taken to have the records perfect, and to admit no pedigrees of doubtful character. It is believed this has been successfully accomplished, and that the animals here recorded may be relied upon as of undoubted purity of blood.
