Mr. Coates edited the first five volumes when, owing to his death in 1846, he was succeeded by Mr. H. Strafford, who served as editor of the next fifteen volumes. The Shorthorn Society of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in 1876 assumed control of the pub- lication of the herdbook, and through its editing committee has ever since maintained supervision of the records of the Society. The first volume of the American Shorthorn Herdbook appeared in 1846, being published by Lewis F. Allen of New York. In 1869 the American Shorthorn Record first appeared, being pub- lished by A. J. Alexander of Kentucky, and ten volumes were issued. In 1878 the Ohio Shorthorn Breeders' Association pub- lished a record and followed it with two others. In 1882 the American Shorthorn Breeders' Association absorbed these and continued the publication of the old herdbook established by Allen. The Canadiajt Shorthorn Herdbook first appeared in 1867, the British American ShortJiorn Herdbook appeared in 1881, and the Z'(?»2/«/(3« Shorthorn Herdbook in 1887, the latter absorbing the other two. The American Shorthorn Herdbook now numbers sixty-five volumes, and new volumes are appearing yearly. Already over 600,000 Shorthorns have been registered in the United States, and many thousands in Canada. This breed is also promoted by several state Shorthorn breeders' Fig. 78.
