B640: An Evaluation Of The Distribution Of Trucked Pulpwood In East-Central Maine, Thomas J. Corcoran, Daniel I. Schroeder, David B. Thompson

Bulletins

The movement of pulpwood from forest to market can be a critical and costly activity. Many factors influence this movement and contribute to its complexity. In 1963, a study was undertaken to quantitatively describe the distribution patterns of trucked pulpwood for a representative area of the state of Maine.

B639: Alternative Systems For Feeding Maine Dairy Cows, Homer Metzger, Dean F. Tuthill

Bulletins

This study was undertaken as part of a northeast regional effort to ascertain the methods used in feeding forages and concentrates to daily animals and to determine the relative amount of labor used under various systems. Special emphasis was given to methods of handling silages on Maine farms. Information obtained from one-day-a-month timings of feeding chores by 39 dairymen over a period of 13 months permitted comparisons of labor used for various systems of feeding dairy animals.


Tb21: Relationships Of Proteins, Essential Fatty Acids And Cholesterol In The Rat And The Mouse, Frederick H. Radke, Herman Dehaas, Eileen K. Gabrielson, Mary E. Norburg Feb 1966

Tb21: Relationships Of Proteins, Essential Fatty Acids And Cholesterol In The Rat And The Mouse, Frederick H. Radke, Herman Dehaas, Eileen K. Gabrielson, Mary E. Norburg

Technical Bulletins

This report describes extensive experiments to search for effects of various types and levels of dietary protein and dietary fat, especially linoleic acid, on such parameters of well-being as growth, appearance, tissue moisture and lipid content, tissue and serum cholesterol levels and lipid iodine numbers. Inbred mice were used in initial experiments and inbred rats were used in later experiments.
