The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. Viii. A Comparison Of Alfalfa Meal And Artificially Dried Sudan Grass Meal In Rations For Growing Chicks, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

1. The effect of replacing the ten parts of alfalfa meal in a ration with artificially dried Sudan-grass meal on an equivalent protein basis was studied in a growth and body-analysis experiment with two lots of day-old chicks. 2. The chicks of both lots consumed equal amounts of dry matter during the feeding trial. 3. There were no significant differences in the growth rate or composition of the chicks at the end of a six weeks' feeding trial.

A Study Of Hybrids Between Sugar Beets And Mangel Wurzels With Reference To Color Factors And Sugar Content, Boyd Berrey May 1939

A Study Of Hybrids Between Sugar Beets And Mangel Wurzels With Reference To Color Factors And Sugar Content, Boyd Berrey

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Preliminary unpublished work at the Salt Lake City Laboratory of the Division of Sugar Plant Investigations, Bureau of Plant Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, indicates that beets showing the Y color factor (9) were larger than sugar-beet types recessive for this color factor (y y). It was suggested to the writer that an investigation be made to determine whether or not yield and sugar content were correlated with color factors in beets. Linkages between the R and Y color factors have been reported by Keller (9), and the results indicate a close linkage between color factors R …


Weather And Plant-Development Data As Determinants Of Grazing Periods On Mountain Range, David F. Costello, Raymond Price May 1939

Weather And Plant-Development Data As Determinants Of Grazing Periods On Mountain Range, David F. Costello, Raymond Price

Aspen Bibliography

Fundamental in economical range-resource management is the determination of proper grazing periods. It is of prime importance to be able to establish a date in the spring when the range has produced sufficient feed to keep livestock in thrifty condition, when it is reasonably safe from excessive trampling and packing of the soil, and when the more important key forage plants have attained sufficient development to withstand grazing use. Such opening dates, as well as the time to defer and rotate grazing and to remove livestock from the range, are dependent in part on the prevailing weather conditions and on …


The Effects Of Stinking Smut (Bunt) And Seed Treatment Upon The Yield Of Winter Wheat, T. A. Kiesselbach, W. E. Lyness Apr 1939

The Effects Of Stinking Smut (Bunt) And Seed Treatment Upon The Yield Of Winter Wheat, T. A. Kiesselbach, W. E. Lyness

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

The depreciating effects of bunt or stinking smut (Tilletia levis Kuhn and tritici [Bjerk.] Wint.) upon the yield and quality of winter wheat in Nebraska and many other states are well known. The practical control of this disease through seed treatment has also been established and is being extensively practiced by growers. At the time these experiments were initiated in 1923, formaldehyde was the most commonly used disinfectant, while copper carbonate was just gaining recognition following its introduction by Darnell-Smith in 1915. It has been the chief purpose of the investigations herein reported to study the relative merits of …

The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. Vii. A Comparison Of Corn And Kalo In A Ration For Growing Chicks, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl Mar 1939

The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. Vii. A Comparison Of Corn And Kalo In A Ration For Growing Chicks, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

1. The effect of replacing 31 per cent of ground corn in a ration by 31 per cent of ground kalo was studied in a growth and body-analysis experiment with two lots of newly hatched chicks. 2. The amounts of feed consumed by all chicks of both lots were kept identical by hand-feeding equal amounts of the pelleted rations daily. 3. There were no significant differences in the growth rate or composition of the chicks at the end of a six weeks' feeding trial.


Fifty Years Of Achievement In Agricultural Investigation, R. T. Prescott Mar 1939

Fifty Years Of Achievement In Agricultural Investigation, R. T. Prescott

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

In Nebraska, a hustling frontier state in 1887, the legislature hesitated not at all in taking advantage of the provisions of the Hatch Act, and now that fifty years have elapsed since the Station was founded, seventy-five years since the Land Grant College Act was passed and the U. S. Department of Agriculture established, and almost twenty-five years since the Agricultural Extension Service was added, it seems worth while to present a general summary of achievement within the state. The main object will be to show some of the important things that have been learned through the investigations of the …

The Utilization Of Food Elements By Growing Chicks. Vi. The Influence Of The Protein Level Of The Ration On The Growth Of Chicks, C. W. Ackerson, M. J. Blish, F. E. Mussehl

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

1. Two rations containing 16 and 22 per cent of protein respectively were fed to newly hatched chicks in two series of feeding trials. In one series the lower protein level was secured by diluting the higher with 30 parts of starch so that the amount but not the quality of the protein was changed. In the other series the amount and quality of the protein both varied since the two rations were mixed by using different proportions of the base and concentrate to yield the 16 and 22 per cent levels in the finished rations. 2. Comparisons were made …

A Zygotic Lethal In Chromosome 1 Of Maize And Its Linkage With Neighboring Genes, R. A. Emerson Jan 1939

A Zygotic Lethal In Chromosome 1 Of Maize And Its Linkage With Neighboring Genes, R. A. Emerson

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

A Bolivian maize

maize with mosaic red pericarp and cob, here designated by the symbol M-M, crossed with a local inbred strain of maize having white pericarp and cob, W-W, produced in F1 21 M-M and 28

W-W plants, not far from the I : I relation expected on the assumption that

the M-M parent was heterozygous for pericarp and cob color, M-M/W-W.

In F2 and segregating F3 cultures, however, there were 130 M-M and 64

W-W plants obviously a 2 : I instead of the 3 : I relation expected. Later cultures
