Inquiries were made when tae second Herd-book was likely to be issued.—The •secretary stated mat over one Hundred entries had been received, but publication -was delayed pending receipt of further particulars froin about “twenty-five members. As soon as these were to hand the book would be issued.

A discussion arose oh the question of the exhibition of animals not registered in the Herd-book. On the motion of Mr A.
