A Plan Of Weekly Lessons In Choral Techniques For Students In High School Choir, Leroy Earl Spitzer

All Master's Theses

The reason for choosing this particular project is the need for a course in fundamentals for the children in the Franklin Pierce School District. Students coming into the high school, by and large, have very little training. This course begins with the very first fundamentals of choir singing and continues into more complicated, varied aspects of music performance.

Manuscript Writing Present Practices And Extension Trends Within Schools Of The State Of Washington, John W. Wingate Jr.

All Master's Theses

In assuming this study, the author purported to ascertain both the potential and the limitations of manuscript-style hand-writing.

What Educational Values Do Comics Have?, Sister M. Evangelist Burke

Research Problems, 1947-1991

Teachers, parents, and all those who care about children are more concerned today than ever about the effect of comic books on our youth. Comics are big business. In 1951, more than 900,000,000 comic books with more than 400 different titles were sold. Over 90 per cent of the regular readers of these books and comic strips were boys and girls between 8 and 13 years of age. Many of these boys and girls read 5 and 6 comics weekly. Children are going to read comics; therefore, it is up to educators and parents to improve the medium. The teacher …

A Suggestive Guide For The Development Of Moral & Spiritual Values In Certain Curriculum Areas In The Elementary School, Belle Burks

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Since the beginning of her teaching career, the writer has cherished the hope that the day would come when opportunity and freedom would be given whereby the classroom teacher might saturate her teaching, and that without fear, with those values that exalt and refine the life of each youth that she endeavors to guide. That day has dawned! During recent years seminars, workshops and conferences have been held and the Kentucky program for Moral and Spiritual Education has been recognized as providing a formula which is acceptable to public schools. It is true that spiritual values have always been taught …

Rb56-178 Streak Mosaic Of Wheat In Nebraska And Its Control, R. Staples, W.B. Allington

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

A mosaic of wheat was first observed in Nebraska by Peltier in 1922. Peltier found diseased plants in a large number of winter and spring wheat varieties at Lincoln, and in some instances, he successfully inoculated wheat and corn from the juice of infected plants. The temperatures under which Peltier maintained his inoculated plants are unknown and other criteria now employed to characterize the viruses were not utilized. It is probable, however, that he was working with what is now known as wheat streak mosaic virus.

This bulletin reports the results of studies on the epidemiology of wheat streak mosaic …

Cc56-126 Poultry Profit Pointers: Feeding For Egg Production, Elvin C. Schulte

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Eggs are produced from the feed we give our hens. The number of eggs taht are produced depends upon the amount and quality of the ration. For a hen to lay profitabily she must have a full feed of a properly balanced ration.

Rb56-182 Forty Years Of Dairy Cattle Breeding At The North Platte Experiment Station, Mogens Plum, Myron G.A. Rumery

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

In 1913 the Nebraska Legislature appropriated $17,500 to establish a Dairy Department at the North Platte Experiment Station. The department's herd was to be used in demonstrating management and breeding practices and as a source of breeding stock.

Since the North Platte herd was started, research in the field of animal breeding has developed new concepts in many phases of dairy cattle breeding and selection. In 1948 a regional project was started to study the improvement of dairy cattle through breeding and the herd of Holstein cattle at the North Platte Experiment Station became a part of this project.

Rb56-181 Rate Of Potato Tuber Growth On Dryland At The Box Butte Experiment Farm, H.O. Werner

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Relatively late planting of potatoes, i.e., between June 12 and 25, has become the prevailing practice in the dryland areas of western Nebraska. Late planting distinctly improves the color and type of tubers, and reduces losses due to insects and diseases (especially soil-borne diseases caused by Fusarium and Streptomyces).

Beginning in 1937 and continuing to 1954 (in all except two years), potatoes growing with dryland culture at an altitude of 4,000 feet on the Box Butte Experiment Farm were harvested semimonthly to determine: time and rate of tuber growth; size of tubers produced by various dates; time and rate of …

Rb56-176 Influence Of Atmospheric And Soil Moisture Conditions In Diurnal Variations In Relative Turgidity Of Potato Leaves, H.O. Warner

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Great variations in morphological characteristics and in ability to survive heat and drought are observable among the hundreds of varieties and thousands of clones used in modern potato breeding programs.

The experimental work reported herein was planned to determine:

1. The extent and nature of the changes in the relative turgidity (R.T.) of leaves of the potato plant during the diurnal cycle.
2. The extent to which R.T. of potato leaves is influenced by atmospheric conditions, soil moisture, variety and age of plants.
3. The extent to which visible evidence of water shortage in leaves is indicative of water loss from them as …

Rb56-180 False Smut Of Buffalograss, John L. Weihing

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

False smut of buffalograss, Buchloe dactyloides (Nutt.) Engelm., caused by Cercospora seminalis Ell. & Ev. is a disease that destroys the unfertilized ovary. The disease was first reported by J. B. Ellis and B. M. Everhart in 1888. They gave only a brief description of the disease and named the causal fungus Cercospora seminalis. The origin of the term "false smut" is unknown to the author, but it so descriptively fits the general appearances of the disease that one readily understands its usage. The following studies were conducted from 1950 to 1954.

Rb56-179 Comparative Measurements Of Holstein, Ayrshire, Guernsey, And Jersey Females From Birth To Seven Years, H.P. Davis, I.L. Hathaway

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Body measurements are important for a proper understanding of how growth takes place in animals. Unfortunately, few growth data other than for weight have been published concerning dairy cattle.

This is a report of measurements of females in the University of Nebraska dairy herd made as part of a long-time growth study. During the period 1922 to 1942 each animal born into the herd was weighed and measured at regular intervals. Presented here are the data for weight, height, length, width, depth, girth and hide thickness for females of the Holstein, Ayrshire, Guernsey, and Jersey breeds. The average body measurements …

Cc143 Poultry Profit Pointers: Choosing Your Baby Chicks, Elvin C. Schulte

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

The successful poultryman is very careful in buying chicks, and in selecting birds for his breeding or laying flock. Well-bred stock will do quite well even when conditions are poor, but poor stock will not pay under the best conditions.

This campaign circular discusses what to look for when purchasing chicks for your farm. This includes disease-free chicks, and the types and breeds. It also discusses how many to start with, when to start, keeping records, how to feed them, and preparing the brooder house for the arrival of new chicks.

Cc56-139 Poultry Profit Pointers: Marketing Eggs, Elvin C. Schulte

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

The egg represents the marketable, finished produce from the laying flock. Poultry raisers should be familiar with eggs and do everything possible to maintain egg quality. Eggs are a valuable human food because they are rich in protein, vitamins and minerals. Like other important protein foods, eggs should be properly handled to protect their quality.

This campaign circular discusses what to look for in the size eggs and how to handle them before taking them market.

Cc56-137 Poultry Profit Pointers: Selection And Housing Pullets, Elvin C. Schulte

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This campaign circular contains pointers on how the producer can raise the best flock for profit. It discusses what to look for in the selection of the laying flock; how to handle the pullets; what is required in housing the flock; feeding the flock; ventilating and watering the flock; the best type of nests and roosts; and placing litter.

Cc56-136 Poultry Profit Pointers: Health Maintenance, Elvin C. Schulte

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

The health of a poutlry flock can mean the difference between profit and loss. At least 15% of all chickens hatched in the United States die from disease before copmleting a laying year.

This campaign circular discusses the means rules for raising a healthy flock. This includes: sanitation, medication, vaccination, controlling lice, mites, and internal parasites, controlling cannibalism by debeaking.

Cc56-132 Poultry Profit Pointers: Range Management, Elvin C. Schulte

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

This campaign circular discusses range management. The number of birds that can be ranged on an acre will depend upon the type of sod and the fertility of the land. On most land, 250 to 500 pullets can be ranged per acre.

Pullets should be reared on range after geing started in permanent or colony brooder houses. They should be hardened off by letting them run on wire sun porches or gravel yards in front of the brooding houses and then transferred to the shelters on the range.
