This review is limited primarily to the Animal Husbandry Department. However, in an organization as closely knit as the College of Agriculture, it is impossible not to make occasional reference to other departments and activities. The narrative is confined largely to the organization at Lincoln, although some reference is made of work and workers at outlying stations.
Many references are made to These Fifty Years by R. P. Crawford. Through the courtesy of the Comptroller, Dr. Joseph Soshnik, and Miss Viola Hasskarl, many official documents have been reviewed. Grateful acknowledgment is made by the writer to his colleagues and former students for their suggestions and contributions in preparing this publication.
