Spiders constitute the order of Araneida, which is one of the principal divisions of the class Arachnida.

The Effect Of Orally Ingested Selenium Upon The Blood Picture, Feed Consumption And Growth Of The Normal Dog And The Effect Of Arsenic In Chronic Selenium Poisoning, Morris Rhian

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Chronic selenium poisoning, commonly known as "Alkali Disease", is quite common in most of the states in the Great Plains area. Since the discovery that selenium is the cause of "Alkali Disease", as a result of a survey by Franke and others (1) in 1934, and the isolation of selenium from toxic grains by Robinson, there has been a great deal of work reported on the effects of selenium on the animal body. A summary of the work reported in studying selenium poisoning was published by Moxon (2) in 1937.

A Study Of The Piezoelectric Effect In Electrets, Perry Williams

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A paper published in 1925 by M. Eguchi (1) described the preparation of a permanently charged wax on its solidification in a rather strong electrostatic field. Such charged bodies were named electrets. Later work has shown the charge will remain essentially constant over a period of several years. A rather extensive investigation was carried on by A. Germant (2) and published in 1935.

An Investigation Of The Mill Development Of Aroostook County, Maple Ismay Percival

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study of mill development in Aroostook County attempts to survey a phase of Aroostook’s industrial history up to the time of the County’s definite emergence as a predominantly agricultural area. The treatise likewise has tried to show how the present status has been achieved out of a definitely varied background. The scope of treatment has been, of necessity, somewhat restricted because, by and large, source materials relating to the County’s history are scattered and fragmentary. In only a few localities have there been any attempts made toward a concrete analysis of the town’s activities, economic or otherwise. Where possible …

The Efficiency Of Churn Washing Method And The Keeping Quality Of Butter As Indicated By Yeast And Mold Counts, T. Allen Evans

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Of all the equipment used in the manufacture of butter, no single piece has as close contact with the finished product as does the churn while at the same time no piece of equipment is more difficult to keep properly cleaned. The workers in the dairy industry have expended much time and effort attempting to build a churn which could be kept in a more satisfactory state, especially from a bacteriological point of view. As yet no satisfactory material for churn construction has been found to replace wood which at best is difficult to keep free of micro-organisms. Since it …
