THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF ANIMAL PRODUCTION was organized in 1908 under the name American Society of Animal Nutrition. The present name was adopted at the annual meeting in 1912 and was used on the Proceedings beginning in 1913. Beginning with the account of the organization meeting in 1908, Proceedings were published for each year through 1940. In three cases Proceedings for two or three years were published under one cover. These were 191516, 19171819, and 192526.
In 1940 the Society decided to replace the annual Proceedings with a quarterly publication, the JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCE. The JOURNAL first appeared in 1942, hence the Society issued no publication in 1941, but abstracts of papers presented at the meetings in 1941 appeared in volume 1, number 1 of the JOURNAL.
The Proceedings contain much useful information, but owing to lack of adequate indexing in the Proceedings themselves, and in indexing journals and libraries, their usefulness has been limited.
