B. 'T HOOFT - ROTTERDAM (HOLLAND) ^ Prof» Salvador Castelló Carreras First Vice-President for Europe born Aug. 21st 1863 at ÀRENYS DE MAR, Spain. Professor Castelló studied Natural History at the University in Barcelona and Agriculture at Madrid and at the Agricultural School in Gembloux, Belgium, where he devoted himself especially to the study of zootechnie. During his three years' study in Belgium, poultry farming and pigeon-sport enjoyed his special interest. In 1894 he started a poultry institute on his estate in Arenys. In 1896 this was converted into a Poultry Breeding School, the first and only one in Spain. His Majesty, the King of Spain, bestowed upon this institution the title ,,Royal" and the Government declared it the Official Govern- ment-Institution and has granted it an annual subsidy. Students of this Institute can ob- tain a certificate for poultry-breeding and the degree of Poultry Breeding Master. Further, this school holds courses throughout Spain and has also sent teachers to South-America. In 1904 and 1910 Prof. Castelló gave lessons in Mexico and Uruguay and in 1914 in Chili and the Argentine. Prof. Castelló has given lessons to about 15.000 pupils. He belongs to a family who have counted famous professors among them for five generations. In 1897 he instituted the first National Poultry Society in Spain and also edited the first Poultry Journal, which is now published under the name of „Mundo Avicola". In 1902 he organised a big agricultural exhibition at Madrid at which eight countries were represented. During this exhibition an International Congress was held IV at which the following countries were represented: Spain, France, Belgium, Holland, Italy, Germany, Switzerland and England. It was decided at this congress to establish the ,,Fédération Inter- nationale d'Aviculture*'. This association has its headquarters in Brussels. It was re-organised in 1925. Prof. Castelló is Vice- President of this Association. Prof. Castelló has written several books on Poultry Breeding and Pigeon Keeping, which are much read in Spain, Portugal and South-America. For 30 years he has been Spain's official representative at all International Poultry Congresses and Exhibitions and in 1924 he, with Dr. Brown, organised the Second World's Poultry Con- gress, which was held in Barcelona, and at which 35 countries were represented. At the Third World's Poultry Congress, held at Ottawa in 1927, Prof. Castelló was elected first Vice-president for Europe of the World's Poultry Science Association. N) WORLDS FOURTH INTERNATIONAL POULTRY CONGRESS LONDON 1930 The preliminary arrangements for the World's Fourth Inter- national Poultry Congress, which is to be held in Great Britain in 1930, were discussed at meetings held in Paris last week by the European Members of Council of the World's Poultry Science Association and by the Fédération Internationale d'Agriculture, the Headquarters of which is at Brussels. The former Association, which is responsible for the initiation of World's Poultry Con- gresses, possesses a European Council of which Senor Castelló, Professor d'Aviculture at the Royal Poultry School, Barcelona, is President. Senor Castelló presided at the meeting in Paris last week, and representatives from Germany, France, Holland, Den- mark and England were also present. Displays of pure bred poultry, pigeons and rabbits from many countries will be made on a national basis at the Crystal Palace in 1930. There will be national exhibits showing the progress made in various countries in poultry, education and research and in the commercial development of the poultry industry. Manufacturers of poultry appliances and other requirements of the poultry industry will be invited to exhibit their goods, and papers written by the leading authorities all over the world will be read and discussed. The first of these International Congresses was held in Holland in 1921; the second in Spain in 1924, both under Royal Patronage, whilst the last Congress took place in Canada in 1927, and attracted representatives from over fourty different countries, while something like 140.000 people paid for admission to the Congress and Exhibition in Ottawa. Considerable interest is already being shown by Overseas Countries in the arrangements for the 1930 Congress. This Con- gress is being organised by His Majesty's Government through the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture for Scotland and the Ministry of Agri- culture for Northern Ireland. Their Majesties the King and Queen and His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales have graciously consented to become Patrons of the Congress. In response to the official invitation sent out to all overseas VI countries, through the Foreign Office, many favourable replies have already been received from such far away countries as Peru, Nicaragua, Columbia, Guatemala, Lithuania and South Africa, and from nearer countries including the Irish Free State, Holland, Norway, Portugal, Hungary, Spain and Turkey. The United States and Canada are both actively engaged in organising their contribution to the Congress, which will probably take the form of large national educational displays and livestock, whilst many papers will probably be presented by Canadian and American Scientists, Enquiries from overseas countries regarding the allocation of space at the Crystal Palace, where the 1930 Congress will be held are already on such a scale as to indicate that all available space at the Palace is likely to be occupied, as the Empire Marketting Board, the Agricultural Departments of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, Agricultural Colleges and Research Institutions and Poultry Associations in this country all propose to take advantage of the opportunity to display the progress made in the science and practice of the poultry industry in this country. The Congress promises to provide a unique gathering on an International basis of those interested in the poultry industry. ^^^ MEETING OF AMERICAN MEMBERS OF COUNCIL at NEW YORK CITY JANUARY 18, 1929. Present: President F. C. Elford. Secretary-Treasurer Dr. G, F. Heuser. Prof. J. E. Rice, United States. ,, B. F. Kaupp, ., W. C. Thompson, „ Dr. M. A. Jull, Prof. M. C. Herner, Canada. Mr. W. A. Brown, ,, George Robertson, „ Professor Thompson reported progress in the drive for mem- bership in the United States and Canada, stating that he hoped to complete it by March 15th. The revision of the Constitution and By-Laws was given careful and lengthy consideration. The adopted final draft was submitted for the approval of the European members of the Council, after which it will be sent to the membership for adoption. President Elford reported on his European trip last fall. The Council expressed its approval of such goodwill missions and voiced the opinion that the trip this year to Southern Europe should also have an American delegate. The following resolution was adopted: Resolved, that the American members of the Council of the World's Poultry Science Association heartily endorse and urge the necessity for the United States government to send a delegate with representatives from other governments for a good-will visit to Southern Europe this summer (1929), for the purpose of promoting the Poultry Industry and World*s Poultry Congresses. (This trip will be similar to one carried out by President Elford and representatives from several European countries to Northern Europe last fall. The VIII Council also expressed the opinion that the United States delegate should be the Federal Senior Poultry Husbandman, Dr. M, A. JulL) Motion duly carried that the Treasurer reimburse Dr, te Hennepe as soon as possible for expenses incurred on the trip with President Elford. It was decided that the Association should be represented at such national meetings as the Poultry Science Association, American Poultry Association and International Baby Chick As- sociation. Some time was devoted to discussing the International Reviev/ or Poultry Science. The meeting spoke very highly of the place the Review was filling and congratulated the Editor upon the manner in which he was conducting it. A suggestion was made that it might be made pictorial or more illustrative. The question was also raised regarding the desirability of making it more popular in nature with a view to increasing sub- scriptions. Motion duly carried that the President appoint a committee to consider the future policies and nature of the International Review of Poultry Science. The following Committee was named: Dr. M. A. Jull, Chairman, Professor W. C. Thompson, Dr. G. F. Heuser. Meeting adjourned. G. F. HEUSER, Secretary-Treasurer, REPORT OF THE MEETING OF THE EUROPEAN MEMBERS OF COUNCIL, PARIS, Friday, 15th.

Kraków, Poland ♦Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The aim of the study was to determine the effect of caponizing on body weight and physicochemi- cal properties of meat of the capons – hybrids obtained from the crossing of hens of the Yellowleg Partridge (Ż-33) breed with meat roosters. The study covered 80 hybrid roosters, which were randomly assigned to two groups of 40 animals each (8 boxes of 10 birds in each group). Group I (control) consisted of uncastrated roosters while group II included birds, which were castrated at 8 weeks of age under local anaesthesia by a vet. Birds were fed ad libitum with the same standard diets and kept on litter under optimal environmental conditions with a stocking density of 7 ani- mals/m2. At the end of fattening, i.e. in the 20th week of life, 8 birds with a body weight close to the group average were selected from each group for slaughter. After slaughter, the effectiveness of the procedure was checked (lack of testicles), then the slaughter performance of birds, physicochemi- cal parameters of the pectoral and leg muscles were determined, and sensory evaluation was per- formed. The procedure of castration of hybrid roosters had a positive effect on body weight, feed conversion ratio and carcass traits.

  • The Rothschild Bibliography Caroline Shaw of the Rothschild Archive Describes Her Attempts to Chart the Family’S Countless Ventures Into Print
    The Rothschild Bibliography Caroline Shaw of The Rothschild Archive describes her attempts to chart the family’s countless ventures into print The ‘Dunottar Castle’ from the cover of Three weeks in South Africa by Ferdinand de Rothschild Has there ever been such a family as the Rothschilds for getting into print? For me, after working on this project for two years, the question is coloured by a mixture of wonder and exasperation. Will they never stop publishing? Of course, one hopes not; but is there to be no rest for the bibliographer? It has been a long-standing goal of The Rothschild Archive to compile a bibliography of publications by members of the Rothschild family and now, 1,840 entries by fifty-one individuals further on, we are perhaps ready to acknowledge that critical mass has been reached whilst accepting that completion may never be achieved. The initial motivation for producing The Rothschild bibliography was a desire to bring some kind of intellectual order to this not insignificant aspect of the activities of the Rothschild family. It has been a mapping of a wide and diverse terrain and revealed some previously uncharted areas. Beyond this, and the greater insight allowed into the lives and interests of many members of the family, the bibliography has brought some other benefits to the Archive. New acquisitions have followed from our greater knowledge and awareness of the publications; and the ever-expanding database of references has also built up into a guide for locating material, whether held at the Archive or at another institution.

    Aan: geadresseerde DATUM 1 juni 2021 TEAM Project- en programmamanagement NUMMER 8226A214 REFERENTIE Arian Korteland BIJLAGE Overzichtskaart locatie ONDERWERP Aanleg zonnepanelenfietspad langs de zonnepanelenfietspad N417 in Maartensdijk. Geachte mevrouw, heer, Vorig jaar september hebben wij u voor het laatst geïnformeerd over het groot onderhoud en de wegaanpassingen aan de Koningin Wilhelminaweg/Tolakkerweg (N417) in Maartensdijk en Hollandsche Rading en de aanleg van het zonnepanelenfietspad langs de N417 in Maartensdijk. Het grootste deel van de werkzaamheden is voor de winterperiode uitgevoerd, de aanleg van het zonnepanelenfietspad en een aantal restwerkzaamheden moeten nog gebeuren. Met deze brief informeren wij u over de aanleg van het zonnepanelenfietspad waarmee Strukton op 14 juni 2021 van start gaat in opdracht van de provincie Utrecht. De restwerkzaamheden van het groot onderhoud vinden naar verwachting direct na de bouwvakvakantie plaats en betreffen voornamelijk onderhoud van en aanpassingen aan het fietspad tussen het zonnepanelenfietspad en de rotonde Maartensdijk en de fietspaden richting Hollandsche Rading. Over de definitieve planning van deze werkzaamheden berichten wij u op een later moment. ZONNEPANELENFIETSPAD Het zonnepanelenfietspad wordt aangelegd over een lengte van 350 meter op het fietspad naast de N417 in Maartensdijk, tussen de bushalte Maartensdijk/Achterwetering en de rotonde met de Dorpsweg.

    HistorischeHistorische Archäologie 2017 Sonderband 2017 ArchäologieFestschrift für Andreas Heege Papal Bullae; a message from above? Interpretations of the papal lead seal (11th–16th c.) in archaeological contexts in and around the Netherlands Michiel H. Bartels Summary The amount of official messages sent to North-western Europe by the Roman- Catholic authorities in the 11th–16th century is enormous. Many of these docu- ments were sealed with the papal bulla. The seals of these letters have been found in primary contexts in religious, noble and civic sites. The secondary use of papal bullae in Christian burials indicates that a bulla was more than an authenticity mark from a message from Rome. The bulla had a spiritual, religious-apotropaic connotation. This can be deducted from finds- pots such as graves and when the bulla is pierced for use as a talisman or amu- let. Another form of secondary use was in agricultural fields where it might be used for its believed apotropaic strength. A possible explanation is that men on earth tried to cope with uncertainty by favouring the providence using the bulla as a connection between the peasantry and power from above. Zusammenfassung Die Anzahl der durch römisch-katholische Autoritäten vom 11. bis zum 16. Jh. nach Nordwesteuropa versandten päpstlichen Briefe ist enorm. Viele dieser Briefe waren mit einer päpstlichen Bulle aus Blei gesiegelt und damit als Ori- ginal ausgewiesen. Primär fanden sich die Bullen an ehemals kirchlich, adelig und bürgerlich geprägten Orten mit administrativer Funktion. In Sekundärver- Zitation/cite as: M. H.

  • Meles Meles) Population at Eindegooi, the Netherlands
    Defragmentation measures and the increase of a local European badger (Meles meles) population at Eindegooi, the Netherlands Hans (J.) Vink1, Rob C. van Apeldoorn2 & Hans (G.J.) Bekker3 1 National Forest Service, P.O. Box 1300, NL-3970 NG Driebergen, the Netherlands, e-mail: [email protected] 2 Alterra, Wageningen University and Research , P.O. Box 47, NL-6700 AA Wageningen, the Netherlands 3 Rijkswaterstaat, Centre for Transport and Navigation, P.O Box 5044, NL-2600 GA Delft, the Netherlands Abstract: Twenty four years’ data on European badger (Meles meles) and sett numbers have been collected by direct observation of a local population at Eindegooi, which straddles the Dutch provinces of Utrecht and Noord- Holland. The population has shown periods of both slow and exponential growth and spatial dynamics show colonization of the entire study area. Analysis of how population dynamics respond to defragmentation measures involving roads has been undertaken. This suggests that tunnels and other measures make a positive contribution. At low densities and during periods of slow growth these measures can increase the lifetime of reproducing indi- viduals and help badgers to safely disperse and colonize new habitat patches. Their positive effect on the popula- tion is illustrated by the fact that an individual’s mortality risk from traffic has remained more or less constant, despite the increasing number of cars on motorways and provincial roads that dissect the study area. Keywords: badger, Meles meles, population growth, badger friendly measures, traffic, roads. Introduction reducing fatal traffic accidents, but also on defragmenting isolated badger populations. The Dutch European badger (Meles meles) Initially organized at the local level, a national population is recovering after a strong decline defragmentation policy was initiated, which is in the second half of the last century (Wiertz still ongoing (Ministerie van Landbouw, Na- & Vink 1986, Wiertz 1992, Moll 2002, Moll tuurbeheer en Visserij 1990, Bekker & Canters 2005).

The effect of breed (Mos and Sasso X44) on growth performance, carcass characteristics and meat quality of breast and drumsticks was examined in young hens reared 20 weeks in free-range system. The effect of finishing feeding (fodder, corn and linseed) was also evaluated on the aforementioned parameters. The Sasso group grew faster and the maximum weights were higher (p<0.001), but there was no effect of genotype or feed on final weight or growth efficiency. With the exception of breast piece, the highest percentages of commercial cuts were achieved in Mos birds, when breed was the studied effect.

Disease is diagnosed by time consuming methods like fecal examination, oocyst sporulation and necropsy. The aim of this study was to detect E.stiedae with species specific Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), without waiting oocyst sporulation and necropsy. Impression smears were prepared from liver nodules and stained with giemsa. Fecal samples were collected from the intestines and examined by centrifugal flotation with salt solution to detectEimeria spp. oocysts. Then oocysts were sporulated in 2.5% (w/v) aqueous potassium dichromate (K2Cr207). Primers specific to E.stiedae were used in PCR reaction. Eimeria spp. oocysts were detected after the examination of impression smears and bowel content. E.stiedae was diagnosed after the measurement of sporulated oocyst and PCR. At the end of the study, we think that; PCR will be very valuable for the rapid and true diagnosis of hepatic coccidiosis in rabbits. Key words: Angora rabbit, Eimeria stiedae, Molecular detection, Turkey.
