Since 1821 dairy farming has been a major industry in Livingston County, New York and since the early 1900's registered Holsteins have been the breed of choice for many farmers in the county. This is the story of the breeders, their farms and their Holsteins.

Dr. Thomas Bassett (T.B.) Macaulay (1860-1942), was known in the corporate world as the man who made the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada into one of the world's pre-eminent insurance firms. For dairy farmers, his legacy is that of breeding some of the best Holsteins in the World. For agriculturalists, T.B. Mccaulay was the creator of the Macaulay Institute for Soil Research at Aberdeen, Scotland.T.B. Macaulay got into Holstein cattle more by chance than by design. When he discovered the farm he had purchased at Hudson Heights, Quebec was more of a sand pile than crop land, he starting purchasing livestock. Macaulay had very definite ideas on the subject of genetics. Over time six of the Mount Victoria females became known as "The Big Six". They where Oakhurst Colantha Abbekerk (the maternal great-granddam of Montvic Rag Apple Sovereign), Ingleside Pietje Posch, progenitors of the Abbekerk and Pietje families, Dixie Colantha Hartog, foundation dam of the Hartog family and Lady Meg Posch and Bonheur Abbekerk Posch 2nd, cornerstones of the Posch and Bonheur bloodlines. Combined with the purchase of Johanna Rag Apple Pabst, Macaulay went on to change the Holstein breed. Today nearly every Holstein cow in the world has Montvic blood running through its veins! In 1958, when T.B. Macaulay's memory was honored by the hanging of his portrait in the Pioneer Room of the Dairy Shrine Club, it was announced that over ninety percent of Canadian Holsteins at that time were descendants of Mount Victoria breeding. The first registered Holstein arrived at Mount Victoria Farm in 1924. The Mount Victoria herd was dispersed in 1942, following Macaulay's death. Over eighteen years, Macaulay created a bloodline that made Montvic the premier Holstein herd of its day. Copies of the herd dispersal catalog are highly collectible and extremely rare. Original copies have sold for as much as $2000 at public auction. For sale is a high quality digital copy of the Mount Victoria Dispersal Catalog. Catalog includes 84 pages.

Mason's World Dictionary of Livestock Breeds, Types and Varieties, now in its sixth edition, has a long history as a reliable and authoritative source of key livestock breed information. Intended as a list of livestock names and synonyms for breeds, groups, types and varieties worldwide, the dictionary aims to include all names found in the literature, 'defining' each breed or type with a brief indication of identifying characteristics, uses and source of origin.

The world’s population is predicted to hit 9 Billion by 2050, and with it food demand is predicted to increase substantially. The World Bank estimates that cereal and meat production needs to increase by 50% and 85% respectively between 2000 and 2030 to meet demand, putting serious pressure on the global agricultural industry. Critical to meeting this demand for food are mechanisms to reduce the incidence of animal disease. With in excess of 1.3 billion cattle globally, the total cost of infectious diseases is difficult to estimate. However in North America alone, the cost is predicted to be $18 billion annually. Non-infectious diseases also account for another major impediment to the production capacity and welfare of animals as well as the economic sustainability of farming. However animal diseases have implications that spread far beyond the farm gate. Infectious agents can also contaminate the food chain, and potentially affect human health. Controlling diseases, through better preventative and treatment methods requires a detailed understanding of the immune response in livestock species. Multiple studies have identified associations between variation in immune genes and disease susceptibility, which potentially opens up new avenues to select animals with superior disease resistance. Detailed understanding of immunity in cattle is leading to the design of more effective vaccines. Furthermore, appreciation of the significant differences between rodent and human immune responses has also led to bovine models being developed for some human diseases. The publication of the bovine genome and the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies have facilitated a massive expansion in our knowledge of the immune response in cattle. As a result there has been an explosion of exciting research findings including in metagenomics and epigenetics. Recently, there has been a welcome move to integrate our emerging understanding of the immune response with detailed studies of other important physiological processes including nutrition and reproduction. The interactions between the reproductive system, nutrition and the immune system are of particular interest, since each places significant demands on the animal at various stages through the production cycle. The interplay between these morphologically diffuse systems involves widely distributed chemical signals in response to environmental input, and each system must interact for the normal functioning of the other. A comprehensive “systems” approach is improving our understanding of normal physiological interactions between these systems and furthermore, how dysregulation can lead to disease. The successful translation of bovine immunological research into improved treatments for animal disease requires tight interaction between diverse scientific and clinical disciplines including immunology, microbiology, endocrinology, physiology, nutrition, reproduction and clinical veterinary medicine. With so much recent progress in the field, we believe that it is valuable and well-timed to review the broad variety of the relevant studies that attempt to increase our understanding through comprehensive collaboration between these disciplines. We are looking forward to a wide and vivid discussion of developments in bovine immunology and related issues, and we expect that our readers profoundly benefit from new exciting insights and fruitful collaborations.
