Dr. Cole and Animal Breeding Science

Abstract

We have gathered to honor a man who has pioneered as a researcher and teacher in animal genetics, now a subject of major importance in animal husbandry. It was he who in 1922 organized the first series of papers which resulted in truly expanding our society from the Society of Animal Nutrition organized in 1908 into the more inclusive organization, the American Society of Animal Production, as provided for in a motion passed in 1912. He has contributed often to our programs. He has ably assisted in developing an appreciation of higher standards and more fundamental approaches in animal researches, especially in subjects lying outside the field of feeding and nutrition. Looking back over the last 25 years, I feel warranted in saying that this man, in a most unobtrusive way, as teacher and researcher has made an outstanding contribution to orderly scientific thinking in agricultural education, especially in the animal husbandry branch of it.
