Cribbing Corn To Meet Credit Commodity Corporation Loan Requirements, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

How Good a Crib Is Needed To Get a Com Loan? Corn stored in any crib which meets the requirements of floors, roofs and width for the county in which it is stored; will be approved for commodity credit loan at 90% of parity or approximately $1.34 to $1.40 a bushel. (see map on page 1.)

SDSU Extension Circulars

Here comes Christmas with its almost unbearable excitement. The stockings crammed with goodies and toys, important packages in gaudy be-ribboned paper-the tree a wonder of tinsel and bright ornaments. To help you make merry, in these pages you will find ideas for happy giving. The heart of Christmas is the shining quality of warm friendliness that reaches beyond the narrow safe island of a family to other families and peoples.

SDSU Extension Circulars

Necessary changes can be made as the year progresses, The program is most satisfying when it is planned cooperatively by the members with the guidance of the club leader. If the club is large, a committee of girls can be chosen to assist with the planning.

SDSU Extension Circulars

The 4-H Meal Planning C Plan has to do with planning and preparing breakfasts. Do you want to have sparkling eyes, shinning hair and a pleasant disposition? Eating a good breakfast every morning will give you these. Dr. Lydia Roberts, a well known food specialist, says, ''From many standpoints, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Your body has been without food for 10 to 12 hours and should be supplied with the different kinds of food needed for the morning's activities. If you do not have enough to eat, or the right kind of breakfast, you show …

Home Life Project “B” Plan: Bedroom or Child’s Room. Would you like to fix over your room, actually doing some of those things that you've always dreamed? Fixing over your room can be fun and will give you the opportunity to use your imagination and express your own ideas. Your bedroom used for sleeping and dressing, study or reading should be arranged for ease and comfort. A room simply furnished may be made much more attractive than one cluttered up with unnecessary pieces of furniture that have neither use nor beauty.

Gardening, Leonard Yager

SDSU Extension Circulars

There is no better way of cutting food costs than to raise food in your own garden. It can't be denied that vegetables are fresh when they are picked right from the garden. Quality and food value of purchased vegetables are lost by delay in getting them to the consumer. Gardening is fun. It provides a useful form of recreation for the entire family.

1947 Oat Seed Treatment Tests, C.M. Nagel

Agricultural Experiment Station Plant Pathology Pamphlets (1942-1962)

Seed treatment of oats and other small grain seed has become of widespread interest and practice amongst South Dakota farmers. In recent years and during the war a number of new experimental seed treatment materials have been produced and some have been placed on the market. The purpose of these experiments was to test the present recommended treatments with the newer materials to determine which of these were most beneficial when applied to oats for the control of certain seed and soil-borne diseases which attack oats.

Carcass Differences In Inbred Lines And Linecrosses Of Swine, Ellis Andine Pierce

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A great amount of variation in the carcasses from butcher hogs proximal to two hundred and twenty pounds from different lines and breeds has become apparent in recent years. The average hog producer prefers the type of hog that gains quickly and economically and will net the most profit. The average consumer, however, prefers the type of carcass that has a high percentage of lean to fat. Today the dollar value of market hogs is determined more by the amount of finish they are carrying than by the quality of carcass. Since variations do exist in the carcasses from different …

The Apparent Digestibility Of Prairie Hay Harvested At Three Stages Of Maturity, Arnold Bernard Nelson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

More land in the United States is used for grazing and hay production than for all other farm crops grown. Well-managed pastures and rangeland have always been recognized as an economical source of feed and recently have commanded much attention as an effective means of conserving soil resources and preventing erosion. In the states if North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana, about 67 per cent of the total land in farms and ranches is in pasture and hay. Over 60 per cent of the entire area of South Dakota and about 83 per cent of the area …

The Yielding Ability Of Bulked F2 Barley Crosses And Parents In Comparative Yield Trials, Walter Lowell Nelson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Present methods of breeding new barley varieties are costly, laborious and lengthy. Populations from a cross are grown until they become homozygous before much selection by comparative yield trails can be made. The pedigree method limits the number of crosses that can be studied because of the large segregating populations necessary for the expression of desired gene combinations. Because of the enormous amount of work involved, it would be highly desirable for a plant breeder to work only with superior parental material. The capabilities of a plant breeder would be greatly increased by an method which would allow him to …
