Excerpt from International Association of Instructors and Investigators in Poultry Husbandry, Vol. 1: Proceedings of the Meetings for the Years 1908, 1909, 1910 For a number of years previous to the formation of the International Association of Instructors and Investigators in Poultry Husbandry, there existed among several interested in Poultry work a desire to discuss common problems and various methods. A movement to accomplish this desirable end was set on foot as early as 1906 when several teachers of Poultry Husbandry met at the Madison Square Garden Show for an impromptu discussion. A little later, in 1908 to be specific, others feeling that conditions were ripe for concerted action and organization united in an effort to assemble all teachers and investigators of Poultry Culture. After considerable discussion it was decided to hold a conference in connection with the course in Poultry at the Graduate School of Agriculture, meeting that year at Cornell University. A regular organization was effected at this conference. The interest manifested induced the directors to hold a meeting of the Association annually. The second conference was held at the Ontario Agricultural College and Experiment Station and the third at the Iowa Agricultural College and Experiment Station. This volume contains a report of the proceedings of the first three conferences of the International Association of Instructors and Investigators in Poultry Husbandry. No definite action was taken to publish the proceedings of this Association until the third annual conference. Consequently a large portion of the material of these first meetings is not available. This fact accounts for the publication in one volume of the proceedings of the first three meetings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
