A Progress Report On Commercial Cotton Growing On The Ord River Project, William John Toms
A Progress Report On Commercial Cotton Growing On The Ord River Project, William John Toms
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The recommendations given in this article have been built up from the experience of the author in growing 200 acres of cotton in the Ord River area during the 1962-63 season for the Department of Agriculture, from findings made by Kimberley Research Station, and from discussions with the present farmers in the area.
When a new form of agriculture is introduced into a new area techniques and ideas change rapidly as farmers become acquainted with their new environment and the new crops. The recommendations will therefore require constant revision.

Progress In The Control Of Cotton Fireweed, Geoffrey A. Pearce
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Cotton Fireweed (Erechtites quadridentata) is native to Western Australia and was first collected by Drummond before 1850. In its natural habitat it is quite insignificant and passes unnoticed.
Cotton fireweed, a native perennial plant, has become a serious weed in the south coastal districts and is now one of the most widespread weeds in the State.

Control Of Copper, Zinc And Manganese Deficiencies In Fruit Trees, N J. Halse
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE three elements copper, zinc and manganese are plant nutrients of the type often referred to as minor or trace elements.
Although essential elements for plant growth, they are required in comparatively small quantities.
Swing Fence Flood Crossing For Creeks In The Kimberleys, A L. Payne
Swing Fence Flood Crossing For Creeks In The Kimberleys, A L. Payne
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
FENCING is the basis of the regeneration programme on the eroded Ord River catchment area, and the fences constructed must cross numerous creeks.
But heavy downpours of short duration characterise the wet season experienced in this area.
Because the rain falls on to bare, compacted ground, run-off is intense and gullies and creeks rise rapidly, causing serious damage to conventional fences and flood gates across watercourses.

The Bdellidae (Acarina) Of The Australian Realm, Warren T. Atyeo
Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum
Although primarily a systematic study, variations in the integumental striae and chaetotaxy of the legs are discussed. The genus Octobdellodes Atyeo, 1960 is synonymized with Bdellodes Oudemans, 1937 and the sugenus Cytobdella Mihelcic, 1958 is synonymized with Cyta von Heyden, 1826. The genus Bdellodes is divided into the subgenera Bdellodes and Hoploscirus Thor, 1937 (=Thoribdella Grandjean, 1938, new synonymy). Twenty-two species are now known to occur in New Zealand and the outlying islands. These include four known species: Bdella iconica, Bdellodes (Roploscirus) lapidaria, B. (R.) reticulata, and Cyta latirostris, and eighteen new species: Bdellodes (Bdellodes) harpax, B. (B.) oraria, …

New Species And Records Of Little-Known Species Of Melissodes From North America (Hymenoptera: Anthophoridae), Wallace E. Laberge
Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum
Two new species from Mexico, Melissodes (Tachymelissodes) sonorensis and M. (Melissodes) tescorum, are described in this paper. The previously undescribed males of M. cerussata LaBerge and M. baileyi Cockerell are described. Notes concerning the key to species of the subgenus Callimelissodes are given. New records of the following poorly known species of Melissodes are included: M. opuntiella, M. sphaeralcea, M. fimbriata, M. baileyi, M. apicata, M. mitchelli, M. intorta, M. flexa, M. maesta, M. cerussata, M. expolita, M. fasciatella, M. floris, M. …

Grade Herd Recording : 1962-63, Maurice C. Cullity
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A poor season coupled with a 16 per cent, increase in the number of cows tested during 1962-63 led to a drop in the average yields of cows in the Grade Herd Recording Scheme.

Deltoptila, A Middle American Genus Of Anthophorine Bees (Hymenoptera, Apoidea), Wallace E. Leberge, Charles D. Michener
Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum
A third genus in the tribe Anthophorini in the vI/estern Hemisphere, genus Deltoptila, is described in this work. Previously described species included in the genus are as follows: D. melanopyrrha (Dours), D. elefas (Friese), D. fulva (Smith), D. bombyformis (Smith), D. montezumia (Smith), D. aurulentocaudata (Dours), D. agilis (Smith), D. costaricensis (Friese). New descriptions and records are given for D. montezumia, D. aurulentocaudata, D. agilis and D. costaricensis. Two new species are described: D. afimbriata and D. pexata.
Hints On Irrigating Citrus With Saline Water, Stanley Thomas Smith
Hints On Irrigating Citrus With Saline Water, Stanley Thomas Smith
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN the past few years a number of citrus orchards near Perth have shown signs of damage caused by excess "salt" (chloride) uptake. All have been irrigated either from the Canning River or from private bores or dams.
Senior Soil Research Officer S. T. Smith describes glasshouse experiments which have given some useful guides to minimising "salt" damage in citrus trees irrigated with low-quality water.

Water For Agriculture. 5. Salt Poisoning In Livestock, J Craig
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
LIVESTOCK need a plentiful supply of good, fresh drinking water for normal health and high production.
Over large areas of Western Australia the water from bores, springs and wells contains varying but appreciable amounts of salt and special care may be needed to ensure that the stock water supply is satisfactory.

ALGAE are primitive forms of plant life that are common and normal in surface waters. They are fonnd in every water supply exposed to sunlight.
Their presence is not normally detectable until there are enough of them to make their presence obvious.
The F.A.Q. Standard For 1962-63, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
The F.A.Q. Standard For 1962-63, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE term f.a.q. refers to "fair average quality" as a standard for the sale of wheat -*- produced in Western Australia during any particular season.
The practice of using this standard developed after a standard sample of wheat grown in 1904 was obtained and declared to have a bushel weight of 62 lb.
