Conference on Artificial Insemination

Louisiana State University,

G. W. Salisbury, Secretary

Cornell University,

Abstract

The program of the conference consisted of seven formal papers and five informal reports plus some discussion from the fioor. The papers centered primarily around methods of semen evaluation, preservation and storage, with brief reports on the practical application of artificial insemination.

Due to the war in Europe, Dr. V. R. Berliner of Mississippi State College was unable to provide a summary of foreign work on artificial insemination as he has so generously done in past years.

The formal papers appear in these Proceedings on pages 213–254.

Dr. R. W. Phillips gave a summary of three years work in the transportation of ram semen for artificial insemination. The work was done co-operatively by Dr. Phillips of the U. S. D. A., Dr. E. M. Gildow of Idaho, and Dr. R. G. Schott and Dr. C. E. Terrill of the U. S. D. A. During three breeding seasons ewes were inseminated with semen shipped by air express from Dubois, Idaho to Moscow, Idaho (700 miles), Beltsville, Maryland, to Moscow (2600 miles), and in both directions between Beltsville and Dubois (2250 miles).
