Holstein blood is strong and not only remains unimpaired in all sections of the world, but improves all others with which it is mingled. These Hollanders developed cattle of sturdy thrift and plodding patience, qualities which have been maintained and are manifest m their descendants to-day. These farmers have always avoided inter- breeding, and for this reason the Holland cow possesses more stamina and prepotency than any other animal. The Dutch dairymen through the centuries have bent their efforts toward improving constantly the milk producing capacity of their herds, and the liberal importation of the best strains of these cattle to the United States has been responsible for the upbuilding of American Holstein herds. The first recorded importation of these cattle was made by the Holland Land Company in 1795. During the past twenty-five years, the marked advance in the proper housing and the proper care of cattle has increased the popularity of this breed, and well-informed farmers are coming to know that the milk of Holstein-Friesians is the ideal milk for human consumption, while the public, on the other hand, is beginning to realize that it must specify this particular milk.
