The distribution of Red Polled cattle is widespread, yet the breed cannot be regarded as common. In Britain it is mainly bred in Norfolk and Suffolk counties, although large herds exist elsewhere, and considerable milk is shipped to London from Red. Fig. 203.

Specimens of the breed have been exported from England to Russia, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. In the United States it is pretty well dis- tributed, mainly in the Mississippi Valley and as far south as Texas. The more prominent herds are found in Ohio, Wisconsin, â Illinois, Minnesota, and Iowa. The breed is fairly well adapted to a wide range of climate, being, perhaps, best suited to temperate latitudes. Organizations to promote Red Polled cattle interests exist in England and the United States. Through the efforts of the late Henry F. Euren a herdbook was published in England in 1874, and this work he continued until 1888, when the Red Polled Society of England was organized. The American Red Polled Cattle Club was organized in 1883 at Chicago. In 1887 the first American herdbook appeared. This contained also the Digitized by Microsoft®.
