Circular No. 96 - Crickets And Grasshoppers In Utah, W. W. Henderson
UAES Circulars
In the written history of Utah, especially that which is reflected in diaries and journals of the pioneer settlers and that found in the oldest publications, there is ample evidence that one of the most serious handicaps to progress in this "far-western" territory was the cricket and its near kinsman, the grasshopper. Three basic resources on which the first permanent settlers counted were: (1) Good soil suitable for raising crops to sustain life; (2) suitable climate to make possible the maturing of wheat, corn, and vegetables; and (3) sufficient water of good quality not only for home uses but for …

For many years I have lived on the prairie, where I became familiar with the grasses. Each spring I have been delighted with their renewal of growth in watching the brown landscape of rolling hills become carpeted with green. Year after year, with the progress of the season, I have seen the changing aspects, which, with the coming of autumn, end in the wonderful coloration of the prairie grasses. But the prairie as a whole has seemed a somewhat elusive thing, difficult to visualize, not easy to describe, indefinite and extremely variable in its composition. This vagueness of understanding, I …

The Effect Of Maturity And The Ethylene Chlorhydrin Seed Treatment On The Dormancy Of Triumph Potatoes, H. O. Werner
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Western Nebraska dry-land Triumph potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) vary in maturity at the time of harvest, from some that are very immature to others with vines which are entirely ripe. Variations in maturity may be due to such factors as early frost, drouth, destruction of vines by hail or early blight, time of planting, and strain type (whether early or late maturing). The question of seed maturity and its influence upon duration of the dormant period is of considerable commercial importance, since these potatoes are annually being planted in south Texas as early as December 26 and in southern …

The Ethnobotany Of The Isleta Indians, Volney H. Jones
The Ethnobotany Of The Isleta Indians, Volney H. Jones
Anthropology ETDs
This study is an outgrowth of the increasing interest in the history, ethnology, and archaeology of the Pueblo Indians of the Southwest. Although much research has been done in this very fertile field, new and fascinating problems are constantly presenting themselves.
When one states that the environment greatly influences a people he speaks truisms and common knowledge. The arid Southwest with its distinctive flora offers an unusual environment to which the Indian had adapted himself remarkably well. The object in general of this problem has been to study the reciprocal relation between the Isleta Indian and his plant environment; specifically, …

Bulletin No. 230 - San Juan County Experimental Farm: Progress Report, 1925-30, Inclusive, James H. Eagar, A. F. Bracken
UAES Bulletins
San Juan County, located in the southeast corner of the state, has a dry-farm area of approximately 600,000 acres extending from Monticello 26 miles south to Blanding and 6 miles north to Peter's Hill and stretching from the Blue Mountains east 30 miles to the Colorado line. One-fourth to one-third of this area is covered with timber consisting mainly of pinion pine, oak brush, and juniper commonly called cedar. Both the juniper and pinion are of value as fuel and building material, and the juniper has an additional value for fence posts. While small areas have been cleared of timber …

Bulletin No. 228 - Twenty Years Of Rotation And Manuring Experiments At Logan, Utah, George Stewart, D. W. Pittman
UAES Bulletins
It was the task of the pioneers to "subdue" the land. To them, this meant removing the brush, opening the ditches, and reducing the coarse sod to a fine mellow seedbed. They performed their task. Then for one to three generations the sons, grandsons, and the great grandsons of the pioneers made the land feed them. The idea of "subduing" the land was so firmly established in the West, that few realized the soil was being depleted in a manner somewhat similar to a bank account always drawn on but never replenished. Highly productive land is able to stand such …

Circular No. 94 - Control And Eradication Of Bang's Abortion Disease, D. E. Madsen, W. H. Hendricks
Circular No. 94 - Control And Eradication Of Bang's Abortion Disease, D. E. Madsen, W. H. Hendricks
UAES Circulars
The seriousness of Bang's abortion disease in Utah has made it necessary to promote more definite plans toward its control and eradication. The economic losses encountered are brought about not only through the loss of the calves but by the lessened milk production and lessened sale value of the animals themselves. Breeding efficiency is lower and such cows are more subject to udder infections. Many states now require that cattle shipped into them be negative to the abortion test; indications are that more states will adopt similar regulations. The passage of such regulation by some states would seriously interfere with …
Bulletin No. 227 - Soft-Curd Milk, R. L. Hill
Bulletin No. 227 - Soft-Curd Milk, R. L. Hill
UAES Bulletins
Data on the early studies on the curd character of milk are found in Utah Agricultural Experiment Station Bulletin 207 and, therefore, are not included here. The key to research in this field came to light with the development of the "Hill Test," the results of which were first published in 1923. This test furnished a means of quantitatively measuring the difference in curd character of various milks.
The term "soft-curd" milk originated with R. L. Hill to describe milk which on coagulation with pepsin or rennin forms a curd that is soft and clabbery in consistency, differing widely from …

Bulletin No. 229 - Production Study Of 160 Dairy Herds: Wellsville, Utah, 1929, George Q. Bateman
UAES Bulletins
The condensed milk plant located at Wellsville, Utah, could use more milk to an advantage. The dairymen of the section were anxious to supply this demand. The dairymen and manufacturers cooperatively planned a survey to determine by what means this demand could be brought about: Should the dairymen increase the size of their herds? If not, what could be done to increase dairy production?

Bulletin No. 226 - Alfalfa-Seed Production, J. W. Carlson, George Stewart
UAES Bulletins
Utah's alfalfa-seed crop is of far-reaching importance. Since 1919, the growing of this crop has been a major industry in western Millard County and in that part of the Uintah Basin situated in Utah. These places are two of the relatively few large areas in the United States peculiarly adapted by climate for the successful growing of alfalfa-seed. As a cash crop, alfalfa-seed has a high commercial value. It is also the basis of the state's alfalfa hay crop, which in turn constitutes the foundation of Utah's livestock industry. Because of its wide dissemination, Utah's alfalfa-seed crop influences the feed …

Genetic Study Of Certain Spike And Floral Characters In Barley, Dwight Koonce
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Due to the commercial importance of barley many hybridization studies have been prosecuted in an effort to produce superior economic strains. While the economic breeding is still important, at present there is considerable scientific interest int he inheritance of the characters and in the location of the genes in the different linkage groups.
Inheritance In A Wheat Cross Of Ridit X Utac, C. Leland Dalley
Inheritance In A Wheat Cross Of Ridit X Utac, C. Leland Dalley
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Present-day plant breeding, on the foundation made many years ago, has achieved important scientific and economic results. By means of introductions and selections, superior strains such as Turkey and Kanred have been obtained. Through hybridization new combinations of characters result, combining desirable characters of different plant types in a single individual. In this program, wheat hybridization has occupied a worthy place.
Each year a number of wheat crosses are made at the Utah Experiment Station, the main purpose of which is to develop superior strains of wheat. Such an economic program is aided and hastened by studies in genetic behavior. …

Inheritance Of Glume And Kernel Color, Of Awnedness, And Of Spike Density In A Cross Between Ridit And Sevier Wheat, Leslie W. Nelson
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
This paper is devoted principally to the presentation and discussion of the results obtained when certain contrasting characters were brought together in a wheat cross between Ridit and Sevier 59. this is one of the crosses made in an attempt to develop a wheat adapted to this region with the following desirable qualities: Bunt resistance, strong straw, hard kernels, and heavy yield. How near this ideal is approached in succeeding generations can be told only by extensive tests. The genetic study herein presented was made to hasten the time when some of the progeny of this cross may become of …
A Study Of Different Methods Of Applying Ammonium Sulfate Alone And In A Complete Fertilizer, Clarence Burnham
A Study Of Different Methods Of Applying Ammonium Sulfate Alone And In A Complete Fertilizer, Clarence Burnham
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The beneficial effects obtained from the application of farmyard manure to the soil have long been known in Utah, but now the point has apparently been reached where it becomes evident that the supply of manure is hardly adequate in some sections where intensive cropping is practiced. The use of commercial fertilizers to increase crop yields is a new practice in Utah agriculture as is shown in Table 1 from an estimate made from data kindly furnished by the Columbia Steel Company, Anaconda Copper Mining Company, Ford Motor Company, Armour Packing Company, and Porter Walton Company.

Temperature And Atmospheric Humidity As Factors Influencing Seed Setting In Alfalfa, Lealand A. Clark
Temperature And Atmospheric Humidity As Factors Influencing Seed Setting In Alfalfa, Lealand A. Clark
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
For many years seed growers have thought that definite relationships existed between seed production and the weather. When this subject is approached there is little unity of opinion, even among neighboring seed growers. This lack of unity would indicate that growers generally are aware of some cause which affects seed setting, but they are not certain that any particular condition of the weather is the chief contributing factor. Scientific writers1 on the subject are also confident that weather is probably one of the major factors influencing seed production.
A Preliminary Study Of The Flora Of The Henry Mountains Of Utah, W. D. Stanton
A Preliminary Study Of The Flora Of The Henry Mountains Of Utah, W. D. Stanton
Theses and Dissertations
The Henry Mountains from the standpoint of plant geography are among the most interesting in the Rocky Mountain Region for they are entirely surrounded by desert and their unique location results in an intermingling of southern , eastern , and northern forms in the flora of this vicinity . In spite of these facts very little collecting or floral study has been done here and the Henry Mountains are still almost unknown floristically . This is unfortunate for much of the original vegetation has changed due to overgrazing by sheep . This preliminary study was undertaken with the view of …
