G96-1277 Pine Moths, Mark O. Harrell, Frederick P. Baxendale, J. Ackland Jones
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Pine moths can seriously damage pine trees. This NebGuide helps you recognize damage and symptoms, identify the pest, and choose a control.
Pine moths are serious pests of pines in Nebraska. Larvae (caterpillars) damage trees by tunneling just beneath the bark of the trunk and branches (Figure 1), most commonly on the trunk just below a branch. The tunnels they make can girdle the trunk or branches or physically weaken them so they are easily broken by wind or snow (Figure 2). Heavily infested trees are often deformed and are sometimes killed.

G96-1295 Scabies, Wayne L. Kramer, Donald E. Mock
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
The life cycle, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of scabies infestations in humans is addressed.
Scabies is a contagious disease of humans and other mammals. It is caused by the mite, Sarcoptes scabiei, which burrows into the dead layer of the human skin (stratum corneum). Sarcoptic mites are obligate parasites which spend most of their lives in burrows in the skin. If the mite invades a person's skin, and establishes itself, symptoms of scabies will become apparent, although it may take four to six weeks.
Scabies is transmitted from person to person by close personal and prolonged skin contact. Transmission also …

G96-1276 Creep Feeding Growing Horses, Kathleen P. Anderson, Pete G. Gibbs
G96-1276 Creep Feeding Growing Horses, Kathleen P. Anderson, Pete G. Gibbs
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide discusses the benefits and implications of creep feeding horses during the growing period of development.
Creep feeding, providing a place where foals can eat without interference from the mare and other horses, should be used if foals are to grow at optimum rates. Creep feeders are used to provide a nutritionally balanced, digestible concentrate to young nursing foals before weaning. The practice of creep feeding serves to supply nutrients beyond what a foal receives from mare's milk. And, creep feeding minimizes foals' intake of broodmare feed which often lacks the concentrated amounts of protein and minerals relative to …

Whether a feedlot is abandoned for a short time until some crisis passes, or permanently, steps are necessary to minimize the risk of environmental degradation.
Under both scenarios, an abandoned feedlot poses an immediate threat to surface and groundwater quality. The unused facility is also a potential nuisance and source of health problems for humans …

G96-1298 Milk Urea Nitrogen Testing, Rick J. Grant, Dennis Drudik, Jeffrey F. Keown
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide explains how to properly test for MUN and interpret the results.
Milk urea nitrogen (MUN) analyses can be used as a signal, or "red flag", to point out potential problems in your feeding program. In particular, high MUN values reflect excessive dietary crude protein or low rumen degradable nonfiber carbohydrates (NFC). The NFC fraction, usually composed of starch and other sugars, can be low when insufficient grain is fed, or grain is improperly processed. Appropriate MUN testing over a period of several months to fine tune a feeding management program can result in:
1. precisely meeting nutritional requirements, …

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide discusses the history and present status of gangs in the United States, the implications of their effects upon family life today and offers suggestions for intervention and prevention.
There has been an explosion of awareness and concern about gang membership and gang activity in the United States since 1990. Parents, schools, city and state government and law enforcement officials have attempted to confront this phenomenon, often with limited success.
