A Comparison Of Formulae In The Manufacture Of Ice Milk, Glen Wilford Sargent

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Ice milk is not a new product in the ice cream industry. Rather it is one that has gained only little popularity, except in the preparation of "malts" and "milk shakes"; however, within the last decade the gallonage of ice milk produced has more than doubled.

Ice milk has been relatively unimportant because of the difficulty of obtaining a product with acceptable quality. In recent years progressive ice milk manufacturers and research workers have discovered new ingredients and processing procedure that seem to produce favorable results.

This low-fat product has several merits that justify its recent popularity, such as low …

The Influence Of Amounts Of Propionibacterium Shermanii On Eye Formation And Flavor Of Swiss Cheese, Dan G. Turner

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Swiss cheese has been rightly called "king of the cheeses." It has been prized the world over for its stately appearance and sweet "hazelnut" flavor. In grading Swiss cheese, these two things,appearance and flavor, are important considerations in determining the cheese score. Appearance is judges according to the number, type, and size of eyes present in the cheese, with color and body and texture also considered. Flavor is judges according to the degree of sweetness and the amount and kinds of off flavors present.

In the past, there has been considerable variation in the quality of the Swiss cheese produces. …

The Ceylon Crow

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

Specimens of the Ceylon crow occasionally reach Western Australia, having apparently "stowed away" on ships from overseas. Several have been shot in the metropolitan area in recent years.

Rearing Calves On Ten Gallons Of Milk, L C. Snook

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

Only a limited number of calves are reared on dairy farms which sell whole milk. At current prices, it is only a very good calf which is worth more than the milk it would consume, and as a result, the heifer calves from thousands of productive cows are each year slaughtered at birth. In the past the whole milk supplier was able to obtain his herd replacements from farmers in the more distant dairying districts who, of necessity sold butterfat and could rear calves on separated milk.

Layout Of A Dairy Premise, A E. Baker

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

As the average dairyman spends a large proportion of his working time in the milking shed throughout the year, careful attention to the layout of these premises will give good returns in time saved, and will enable the task of milking to be carried out efficiently and with a minimum of discomfort.

A Note On Chronic Footrot Of Dairy Cattle

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

With the advent of treatment with ™ sodium sulphamezathine for footrot of dairy cattle, many of the troubles associated with this condition have largely been overcome.

However, the importance of early treatment is sometimes overlooked and Fig. 1.—Chronic footrot caused the ragged growth of new bone shown in the two lower pictures. At the top are the bones of a healthy foot from an animal of similar size. some farmers are inclined to blame the drug when treatment has been commenced after the animal has been affected for some time and a cure does not result. Why treatment is not …

Mourning Dove Newsletter, Issue No. 7

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

This issue contains a summary of Mourning Dove populations data for assistance to the states and the Fish and Wildlife Service in preparing dove hunting regulations. It will also be of interest to all persons working on this important migratory game bird, whether in state game departments, institutions of learning, or individuals.

The previous issue was number 6, June 30, 1952. Since that date many of the southeastern dove projects have either been terminated or modified, so that information has not been gathered as extensively on populations during the past year as formerly. Consequently the major data available at this …

Visiting National Wildlife Refuges, Douglas Mckay, John L. Farley

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

If you travel in the wilder sections of our country, sooner or later you are likely to meet the sign of the flying goose-the emblem of the National Wildlife Refuges.

You may meet it by the side of a road crossing miles of flat prairie in the Middle West, or in the hot deserts of the Southwest. You may meet it by some mountain lake, or as you push your boat through the winding salty creeks of a coastal marsh.

Wherever you meet this sign, respect it. It means that the land behind the sign has been dedicated by the …

Avian Botulism Information On Earlier Research

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Over the years, the disease, avian botulism, has been an important factor limiting populations of waterfowl, particularly in the West. Great numbers (doubtless millions) of ducks have died from this disease, and because of such heavy tolls, studies of the malady were begun early in the century and continued intermittently to the present time.

This summary brings up to 1950 the series of investigations on botulism by Wetmore (1918), Kalmbach (1930, 1932), Kalmbach and Gunderson (1934), Sperry (1947), and others. This information has been compiled as a service to those concerned with conservation of our waterfowl resources. A cooperative agreement …

Thin-Shelled Eggs, R H. Morris

Growth And Respiratory Studies Of Saccaromyces Cerevisiae In The Presence Of Selenium, Robert M. Pengra

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The occurrence of selenium in certain soils of the United States and its detrimental effect upon livestock pastured on or fed forage from these areas has been well established. Selenium poisoning will not be reviewed here as several excellent reviews have been published (1, 2, 3). Studies on the metabolism of selenium by Sac-charomyces cerevisiae have been reported by Potter and Elvehjem (4), Lardy and Moxon (5), and Fels and Cheldelin (6, 7, 8). An attempt has been made in this thesis to repeat and enlarge on some of these studies. While this investigation may contribute information on the selenium …

Leaflet No 2024 - Mulesing And Tail Stripping. Proved Measures For The Control Of Crutch And Tail Strike In Sheep, J Reilly

Bulletins 1 - 2999

FOR many years, the losses from blowfly strike on the crutch and tail areas imposed a tremendous economic burden on the Merino sheep industry in Australia. Today, the modified Mules operation and the tail-strip treatment have provided a convincing answer to this menace. Breech wrinkles encourage strike, and although as a long-term policy, efforts are being made to eliminate wrinkles by breeding for plainness of breech, it is of the utmost importance to give the sheep IMMEDIATE protection by the most effective methods available.

An Open Letter To Dairyfarmers, H P. Schapper

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

As dairyfarmers, you are part of one of Australia's major industries—an industry which, according to the 1947 Census employed 106,526 persons in dairyfarming alone. As dairyfarmers, you contributed to the 1,200 millions of gallons of milk produced last year which incidentally was worth something like £80,000,000 net at the farm gate. Viewed from the nutritional standpoint, you are even more important. You contributed to the supplies of butter, milk and milk products which on a per head per day basis were the source of 21% of the total calories, 16.4% total protein, 44.6% total fat, 76.5% total calcium, 49.5% vitamin …

Streptomyces Leidnematis N. Sp., Growing On Two Species Of Nematodes Of The Cockroach, Glenn L. Hoffman

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

In 1948 Mr. J. R. Wennemark called the writer's attention to a filamentous growth extending from the cuticle of Leidynema appendiculata and Hammerschmidtiella diesingi, oxyurid nematodes found in the intestine of the American roach, Periplaneta americana, which was collected in Iowa City, Iowa. Because of the extreme filamentous accumulation it was thought to be the mycelium of a fungus. Further observation on material from roaches reared in Grand Forks, North Dakota, and Detroit, Michigan, showed that the organism was not fungus but a member of the Actinomycetaceae. Slides were sent to Profs. R. S. Breed and H. J. …

Scaphanocephalus Expansus (Crepl.), A Trematode Of The Osprey, In North America [Research Notes], Glenn L. Hoffman

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Examination of an osprey, Pandion haliaetus carolinensis furnished by Mr. Melvin Hoffman, Strawberry Point, Iowa, May, 1948, revealed about 30 trematodes which proved to be Scaphanocephalus expanses (Crepl.). This species which was redescribed in detail by Jagerskiold, (1904; Results of the Swedish Zoological Expedetion to Egypt and White Nile 1901 pt. 1) has a very large "expanded" flap-like anterior end and, to my knowledge, resembles no other trematode in that respect. The specimens have been deposited in the United States Nattional Museum Helminth Collection as No. 46437. Mr. Allen McIntosh (personal communication) has informed me that S. expanses has …
