As stated previously, there arc 1,015 imported cows in the advanced registry out of the first 3,984, which would show that per cent of all the im- ported cows are in the advanced registry. Deducting the im- ported cattle from the total number would leave 43,416 Amer- ican^bred cows, of which 2,969, or per cent, are in the advanced registry.
