November. 1930 CLASSIFIED LIST OF PROJECTSIOFgTHE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATIONS 1930 Compiled in the Ofßce of Experiment Stations This classified list of projects includes 7,019 State experiment station projects and 188 insular station projects active during the fiscal year 1930. Of the total number of State experiment station projects, 410 were supported by the Adams fund and 1,221 by the Purnell fund. In general, the method of classification is very similar to that used in the previous list, issued in 1927. Obviously many projects appeared to fall in several sections, and some have therefore been listed under more than one head. Frequent cross references between related sections also appear in the list. Even with these precautions it may be necessary to consult more than one section or subsection to find all the projects in the particular specialized field in which one may be interested. As in previous lists, there is of necessity a considerable lack of uniformity in the terms employed by different project leaders and station directors to designate the same thing. In such cases it has seemed advisable to use the titles of the projects as submitted, even though this results in some apparent inconsistency. In case of titles which are not sufficiently descriptive, explanatory notes have been added where more specific information was available, but it is regrettable that there are still many vague and indefinite titles in the Jist. This is particularly emphasized in the large number of projects that it has been found necessary to include in the all too frequent and too large subsections designated " General." The State is designated in connection with the project titles by accepted abbreviations, and Adams and Purnell ¡orojects by the let- ters (A) and (P), respectively. An innovation in the 1930 list is an attempt to indicate, as completely and accurately as the records of the Office of Experiment Stations will permit, projects which are conducted cooperatively between the States and between the States and the bureaus of the United States Department of Agriculture. For example, cooperative projects in economics are indicated as "(Coop. B. A. E.)," showing that the cooperation is with the Bureau 2796—30 1 1 2 MISO. PUBLICATION 8 9, U. S. DEPT. OP AGEICULTURE of Agricultural Economics of the department. The abbreviation& used for other bureaus are: Bureau of Animal Industry, B. A. I.; Bureau of Biological Survey, B. B. S. ; Bureau of Chemistry and Soils, B. C. and S.; Bureau of Dairy Industry, B. D. L; Bureau of Entomology, B. E. ; Bureau of Home Economics, B. H. E. ; Bureau of Plant Industry, B. P. I. ; Bureau of Public Eoads, B. P. E. ; Forest Service, F. S.; and the Weather Bureau, W. B. Similarly States engaged in cooperative projects are indicated by the appropriate abbreviations. The list was prepared under the general supervision of George Haines, with the assistance of the subject-matter specialists of the office, and to them is due the credit for subdividing the sections and the accuracy with which the work of classifying and arranging the projects within the sections was carried out. The following are responsible for sections : B. Youngblood, Agricultural Economics and Eural Sociology; E. W. Trullinger, Agricultural Engineering, and Soils and Fertilizers ; H. W. Marston and G. Haines, Animal Hus- bandry and Dairy Husbandry; W. A. Hooker, Economic Entomol- ogy, Economic Zoology, and Veterinary Medicine; H. M. Steece, Field Crops; J. W. Wellington, Forestry, Horticulture, and Plant Physiology; Sybil L. Smith, Home Economics; and W. H. Evans, Plant Pathology.

  • Farm Animals and Farming: Part 1
    A GUIDE TO THE COUNTRYSIDE: FARM ANIMALS & FARMING by Hunter Adair Farm animals and farming: Part 1 When you are out in the countryside in the summer, you will see a great variety of animals running about in the fields, and if you happen to be travelling in the Dales, or in the hills you will mostly find sheep and probably suckler cattle, which are cows with their calves running with them. Some sheep are bred for the high hills and areas where the land is much less fertile than on the lowland farms. The hill bred sheep are hardy and can stand a great deal of rough weather. In the winter when a blizzard or snow storm is forecast the sheep will come down Judging Blue Face Leicester from the hill tops on their own to lower ground and shelter, they seem to know when a storm sheep at The Royal Highland is coming. Show In Edinburgh There are over 50 breeds of sheep in this country and many people from the towns and cities think one sheep is just like another. All the different breeds of sheep have their own characteristics and peculiarities. Some sheep are pure bred and some sheep are cross bred to get a particular lamb, which a farmer may prefer, and which may suit his farm. Some breeds of sheep have been developed in certain parts of the country and in certain areas, and the name of the sheep is taken from the district where they were born and bred. In Scotland for instance they have numerous breeds of sheep which are all different.
