change of registration rules Previously we could only purchase in Canada if they traced back in every line to imported animals which is terribly difficult said Col Dewhurst But it was recently agreed that so long as cattle arc registered in an approved overseas Shorthorn Herd Book then they are acceptable into Coates Herd Book in this country Neither of us were very keen about cross breeding or experimental breeding and this seemed lo be a chance to get the background of the Scottish breeding with a slight infusion of Canadian pedigrees which would fit in with our cattle here lulton Fnim Up
