In the Dagestan Republic, sheep breeding has been assigned one of the leading roles in the livestock system for a long time. The vast territory of high-mountainous, alpine pastures, influenced by the nature of agriculture in the republic. The main feature of sheep breeding in Dagestan is distant pasture cattle breeding. In early spring, to summer high-altitude pastures, and in autumn to winter, desert and semi-desert pastures of the Caspian lowland, up to 75 percent of sheep are herded annually. The livestock is on the way for more than two months, roaming from summer pastures to winter ones and back. Meat and wool sheep farming is intensive and very profitable. Live weight of young animals while ensuring good fattening-off at the age of 6 months reaches 40 kg, and can be realized. These meat has a fine texture and is easily digestible. Sheep of the meat and wool types are register for large growth, good meat forms, as well as significant early maturity, high-quality meat in large quantities and good quality crossbred wool. The article presents a brief history of breeding sheep of meat and wool types. The preliminary studies carried out made it possible to determine the Gunib breed as the initial breed, as the most optimal, showing the best results. The Württemberg breed of sheep was chosen as the improver breed.

For a long time before dramatic recent events it has been clear that the German Democratic Republic has been in die position, embarrassing to a Marxist system, of having nothing generally marketable left except (to use the jargon) ‘superstructure’. The Luther celebrations conveniendy bolstered the implicit claim of the GDR to embody Saxony’s long-delayed revenge upon Prussia; still more conveniendy, they paid handsomely. Even the Francke celebrations probably paid their way, ruinous though his Orphan House has been allowed to become. When I was in Halle, a hard-pressed government had removed the statue of Handel (originally paid for in part by English subscriptions) for head-to-foot embellishment in gold leaf, and a Handel Festival office in the town was manned throughout the year. Bach is still more crucial, both to the republic’s need to pay its way and to the competition with the Federal Republic for the possession of the national tradition. There is no counterpart in Britain to the strength of the Passion-music tradition in East Germany. The celebrations which reach their peak in Easter Week at St Thomas’s, Leipzig, are like a cross between Wembley and Wimbledon here, the difference being that the black market in tickets is organized by the State for its own benefit. If Bach research in East Germany, based either on musicology or the Church, has remained an industry of overwhelming amplitude and technical complexity, the State has had its own Bach-research collective located in Leipzig, dedicated among other things to establishing the relation between Bach and the Enlightenment, that first chapter in the Marxist history of human liberation. Now that a good proportion of the population of the GDR seems bent on liberation by leaving the republic or sinking it, the moment seems ripe to take note for non-specialist readers of some of what has been achieved there in recent years.

At the present stage of economic development of the Republic of Kazakhstan dairy cattle breeding should be competitive, highly productive and cost-effective, which contributes to ensuring the country’s independence from imports of dairy products. The formation of milk productivity of future cows begins with the preparation of cows for calving and the purposeful rearing of replacement young cattle, based on the achievements of scientific and technical progress, a systematic approach to the production of high-quality products. The researches have been carried out in the farm “Tauelsizdik” in the Eskeldinsky district in the Almaty region in the Republic of Kazakhstan. According to the results of the research, the average daily gain of live weight in 3 months of the post-embryonic period was 458,9±71,9 g in heifers have reared in narrow-sized pens, and 682,2±44,6 g in heifers have reared in group pens. At 3 months of age the live weight of heifers at rearing in narrow-sized pens has reached 76,5±2,5 kg in narrow-sized pens, and 98,3±1,7 kg in group pens (P < 0,001). The data of the experiment have convincingly shown the effectiveness of rearing heifers in group pens. The live weight of heifers at birth was 36,4±1,1 kg, at one month of age – 54,2±1,6 kg, at 2 months of age the live weight increased to 70,2±2,1 kg, at 3 months of age to 87,4±3,3 kg, at 4 months of age to 116,8±3,5 kg, at 5 months of age to 132,7±4,2 kg and at 6 months of age to 157,4±4,6 kg. The indices of lengthiness, chest, hip-chest and blockiness increased up with age, while the indices of high-leg and overgrown decreased down. For example, the lengthiness index has increased with age from 90 to 97 %, the chest index from 62 to 70, and the high-leg index has decreased from 59 to 54, overgrowth from 109 to 108 %.

The success of the development of beef cattle breeding in the Republic of Buryatia mostly depends on the effectiveness of using animals of Kalmyk breed of different origins in order to increase beef production. The study of the productive traits and expediency of using the gene pool of Kalmyk breed from other regions in comparison with the animals of local selection when breeding beef herds has practical and scientifi c significance. The purpose of the research was to study the productive traits of cattle of Kalmyk breed imported from various climatic zones of Russia. For the experiment, 3 groups of newborn calves of Kalmyk breed of different breeding of 15 heads in each have been selected according to the principle of analogues. The 1st group consisted of steers Kalmyk breed of Buryat breeding, the 2nd – of Kalmyk breeding, the 3rd group – of Rostov breeding. During rearing and feeding, the steers were in the same feeding and housing conditions. During the growth process, the largest live weight at the age of 7 months has been observed in the 1st group of steers received from parents of local reproduction. They surpassed the herdmates of the 2nd group by 3,1 kg or 1,7 %, and the 3rd group by 4,8 kg or 2,7 %. With age the differences in live weight increased at 14 and 18 months the steers of Buryat breeding exceeded their herdmates of the 2nd group by 10,6 kg or 3,4 % and 15,7 kg or 3,8 % (P > 0,95) and the 3rd group by 16,8 kg or 5,4 % (P > 0,95) and 23,5 kg or 5,8 % (Р > 0,99), respectively. A comparative study of the beef productivity of steers of Kalmyk breed obtained under the conditions of the Republic of Buryatia and imported from the Republic of Kalmykia and the Rostov region has shown the advantage of the animals of Buryat breeding, while the herdmates of Rostov selection were the worst, and Kalmyk breeding steers occupied an intermediate position.

The article offers a review of a new documents collection prepared by the staff of the National Archive of the Republic of Belarus (NARB) and devoted to creation and first months in operation of the Belarusian headquarters of partisan movement (BHPM), the main military and political body that guided partisan movement on the territory of the BSSR. The collection includes 204 documents, 196 of them from the NARB fonds; most are being introduced into scientific use for the first time. The historiography on the history of partisan warfare on the territory of Belarus is quite diverse, and yet this collection is of great importance and significance. Firstly, a comprehensive study of the BHPM activities in the wartime is yet to be carried out by Belarusian or foreign historians. Secondly, the designated time period (September-December 1942) remains little-studied; documentary materials that have for a long time been classified are yet to be introduced into scientific use. Authors-compilers use the published documents to address various aspects of the BHPM activities in its most difficult days: recruitment of qualified personnel and personnel records, operational intelligence work, organization of communication and logistics of material supply in partisan formations, document management and document flow. The collection also contains documents of the Central Headquarters of the Partisan Movement (CHPM) and the partisan formations of the BSSR, which makes it possible to consider the activity of the BHPM not as an autonomous process, but as an interaction of the CHPM, the BHPM, and other partisan formations. It is important to introduce into the scientific use documents related to the activities of the subordinate BHPM structures: school for training personnel, mobile radio centre, Belarussian diversionary special operations brigade. One of the main documents on the history of the partisan warfare - ‘Plan for development of the partisan movement and actions of the BSSR partisan detachments in winter 1942/1943’ - is being published for the first time. Collection of documents and materials allows to re-evaluate various areas of activities of the BHPM and its subordinate structures in autumn-winter of 1942.

The present article deals with the history of the Orthodox Church in Lithuania between 1944 and 1990, focusing mainly on the exceptional situation of Orthodoxy conditioned by the Soviet attempts to exploit it via internal policy in the republic. Consolidating the Stalinist regime in occupied Lithuania in 1944–1948, the government demanded Orthodox archbishops start ‘the struggle against reactionary Catholicism’, i.e., start a critique of its dogmas, to bring the whole faith into disrespect, etc. Nevertheless, even though it enjoyed state support the Orthodox Church was too weak to compete successfully with Catholicism which remained dominant in the country. Small in number, Russian-speaking, alien to Lithuanian society and culture and lacking intellectual potential, the Orthodox Church failed to cope with the task. Besides, strengthening the position of Orthodoxy was not acceptable to the leadership of Soviet Lithuania. Though subsequently not directly protected, but having already strengthened its structures, the Orthodox Church continued to enjoy its favourable political image as a religion ‘less harmful’ to the interests of the state than Catholicism. Accordingly, the consequences of the antireligious campaign, conducted in the entire Soviet Union from 1958 to 1964, were minimal in the Lithuanian eparchy. Some of the reforms were not implemented here altogether. In Lithuania the attention of the Soviet regime was concentrated mainly on the struggle against Catholicism, and Orthodoxy for a long time remained outside the sphere of atheistic propaganda. As time went by the Orthodox eparchy was put into the shade entirely by the concern of the KGB and the commissioners about the growing underground of the Catholic Church in Lithuania. Meanwhile the structure of the Orthodox Church in Lithuania suffered comparatively insignificantly (only four parish churches were closed). The Orthodox communities shrank mainly as a result of the rising secularization and urbanization of society. Only communities in the major towns retained their former vitality.

This article examines the history of the Karaganda metallurgical plant construction. The authors emphasize that the issue of building large objects of heavy industry for the war effort became urgent during the Great Patriotic War. Due to the fact that Kazakhstan possessed large minerals reserves, in 1942 in the Karaganda region the People’s Commissariat of Ferrous Metallurgy of the USSR initiated the construction of a metallurgical plant for the production of iron, steel and rolled products. However, the start of the plant construction was delayed for several years. First of all, the delay was due to the fact that the plant site, construction base, railway tracks were not prepared for operation for a long time. In addition, the construction of the Atasu iron mine, which was the ore base of the plant, was carried out at a slow pace. Only in 1957, the project of the Karaganda Metallurgical Plant was approved by the Government of the USSR. The authors note that in 1958 the plant became an all-Union Komsomol construction site, in the construction of which seven specialized enterprises participated. The modern Karmetkombinat is one of the largest metallurgical and coal bases in the republic. At the same time, it gives rise to a complex of environmental problems in the region, the solution of which remains permanent.

After celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Republic of Lithuania and turning back to the field of reflection of Lithuanian art, one can enjoy mature publications by art historians and the exposure of various stages and aspects of art life. However, one gap is noticeable: the creative heritage of individual artists is too little publicised and investigated. The article aims to activate the scientific dialogue on the prospects of research into activities of sculptor Juozas Zikaras (1881–1944), the Lithuanian art “signatory” and the main creator of visual-artistic signs of the young Lithuanian State. This is why the fragments of his biography so far unknown are raised. For example, in the summer of 1912, J. Zikaras created decorations for the performance “Duke of Pilėnai”; in 1923, he was ill for a long time and visited Italy; and in 1940, when he was nearly sixty, he entered the Riflemen’s Union witnessing the impending threat of the Soviet Union to his country. Most importantly, remarks are presented about the most notable catalogue about artist Juozas Zikaras up to the present time (prepared in 2009 by the National M. K. Čiurlionis Museum as the main custodian of his creations, authors Miglė Banytė and Vaiva Laukaitienė). The list of sculptural works is completed, and the attributes, dates and history of some works are updated. An attempt is made to identify prominent individuals of the pre-war era in the sculptural portraits created by J. Zikaras: undoubtedly – Colonel Stepas Rusteika, supposedly – Jonas Bielinis, Jonas Yčas, Povilas Žadeikis or Petras Klimas. After all, an extensive gallery of sculptural images is not just a series of realised artistic orders but also an ideological expression of the sculptor’s position – the society should know and recognise its characters. The newly attributed works and the revised dates established in the historiography allow us to say: we need a closer look at the artistic inheritance of the sculptor and to check the facts that became axioms. A more in-depth study of J. Zikaras’ creation and the spreading of art image and cultural relations during the past century in general would benefit from the summary of data about the circulation of author’s works, replicas and the change of owners of his works. On the other hand, in order to open the artistic creation as a whole, it is necessary to supplement the catalogue of his works with the surviving ones (there are sculptures in Lithuania that are not included in the catalogue, and the situation with works that are taken abroad is not known at all) as well as works considered lost.

The article demonstrates the research results on climate conditions of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and grounds of application of precision technologies for breeding Kalmyk beef cattle on the basis of specific natural and climate conditions of Yakutia. The history of animal breeding says that enhancement of local livestock’s producing qualities in different years contributed to the fact that the stud breeds of cattle, generally dairy and beef-dairy types, were imported. Animals of the beef productivity type, known as Kazakh Whitehead cattle, the Hereford, the Kalmyk, and the Calloway breeds, were imported in order to receive crossbred youngsters with improved feeding and beef parameters. In all the time of the development, the cattle breeding in the region had beef-dairy types. The beef breeds were imported in the last decade for targeted purebred breeding and development of the beef industry for production of the beef. Therefore, in 2012, there were imported 200 animals of the Hereford cattle; the Kalmyk breed has been imported since 2013. The experience has shown that naturalizing of purebred animals to the breeding conditions of Yakutia was extremely stressful, and was followed by the diseases, falls, and decreasing of seed stock’s reproductive indicators. Particularly negative impact was observed on the animals of the highly productive Hereford breed, and this caused gradual degeneration of the breed under conditions of Yakutia. Although, specific natural and climate conditions of Yakutia significantly differ from that in other regions with developed beef cattle breeding, the animals of the Kalmyk breed, which was bred on the basis of the native steppe cattle, were relatively well adapted to the harsh conditions of the region. The authors argue the necessity and urgency of adaptive technologies development on specialized beef cattle breeding with respect to the harsh local conditions.
