The Preparation And Physical Properties Of Benzene- And Toluene-Sulphonamides, Karl K. Kershner

Masters Theses

"The formation of sulphonamide derivatives is often of distinct importance. These substances are easily purified and give sharp mepting points which make them of value for identification phases of research work. Also they are of value commercially as in the production of saccharin and other similar compounds. The purpose of this investigation is to secure information on the comparative production and yield of sulphonamides, and intermediate products, formed from their respective ring hydrocarbons, as benzene and toluene. careful melting point are taken on purified products and solubility curves developed for different solvents. The latter give an interesting basis for comparison"--Introduction, …

The Nebraska Tractor Law And Rules For Official Tractor Tests, L. W. Chase, E. E. Brackett, O. W. Sjogren, C. K. Shedd

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The Nebraska Tractor Law, which became effective July 15, 1919, was enacted to encourage the manufacture and sale of improved types of tractors and to contribute to a more successful use of the tractor for farming. It was thought that the best method of accomplishing these objects would be to require a tractor of each model sold in the State to be tested at the State University and to have the results of these tests made public. These tests will give reliable information on the power, capacity and fuel consumption of each tractor and also some information on endurance. The …

Graphics And Its Application To The Progress And Cost Analyses Of A House Building Construction Company, Frank Lewis Leonard Wilson

Masters Theses

"In the graphical analyses of Stresses in Framed Structures, we study, by means of diagrams, the stability or equilibrium of structures and the relation between the external forces and the stresses created in the members of the frame. The principle involved is that we may represent any force both as to direction and intensity by a straight line, by considering the direction of the line to be identical with that of the force and adjusting its length according to any arbitrary unit adopted for the forces under consideration. By this means we can solve the stresses in framed structures with …

Rules For Tractor Demonstrations, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

The object of these rules, instructions and data is to make all tractor demonstrations of this kind comparable and of the greatest educational value. Anyone who has conducted tractor demonstrations in the past has realized the necessity of some standard rules to follow and those who afterwards have referred to the results, deplore the lack of uniformity in the demonstrations and the data. For those who have not had this experience will find that it is a great help to have satisfactory rules to follow.

The value of these demonstrations depends largely upon the accuracy of the data reported on …

The Occurrence Of Oil And Gas In Osage County, Oklahoma, Donald Hewson Radcliffe

Professional Degree Theses

"Osage, the largest county in Oklahoma, is situated a little to the east of the north central part of the state. It consists of an area of approximately 2,350 square miles, or about a million and a half acres, extending from T. 20 N. to T. 29 N. and from R. 2 E. to R. 12 E. inclusive. As this country lies between some of the best oil producing areas of the State, as it is definitely known to be folded, and as the folds tested have proven that the chances of obtaining production on favorable "structure" in the Osage …

Lake Shore Developments, Albert Theodore Bleck

Bachelors’ Theses

Along the shore line of Lake Michigan are bluffs approximately fifty to sixty feet high above the level of the lake. With the exception of approximately two or three miles, where the ground elevation is not much above the lake level these bluffs are almost continuous along the shore. This low land extends from a short distance north of Wisconsin Street to a short distance south of the Illinois Steel Company's plant. The territory north of Wisconsin Street to the City Limits is almost entirely residential and, therefore, cannot be considered favorably as regards to the location of a mnufacturing …

Pump Irrigation In Nebraska, E. E. Brackett, O. W. Sjogren

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

Before one decides to install a pumping plant for irrigating purposes there are a good many factors that should be considered regarding the feasibility of the project and the construction of the plant. The material contained in this bulletin has been obtained from studying pumping plants in actual operation in this and other states and from experience gained while installing plants in this state.

Chemical Control Work In The N. K. Fairbanks Factories, John Whittlesey Bodman

Professional Degree Theses

"We propose to discuss in this thesis the organization of the N. K. Fairbank Company, particularly with reference to the duties of the Chemical Division, Operating Department in this organization. From a broad viewpoint, we believe that the particular organization by with the N. K. Fairbank Company secures application of its chemical ability to manufacturing operations as well as to special problems, is characteristic of a widespread movement taking place for recognition of the chemical engineer in industry. This is particularly true in those industries where manufacturing operations are based primarily upon practical applications of chemical principles"--Abstract, page 1.

Professional Degree Theses

"The Inlet Swamp Drainage District, comprising 32000 acres of rich muck land, lies in Lee County Illinois, between the Chicago and Northwestern Railway, the Illinois Central Railway and the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway. The District is fifteen miles long and from one to five miles wide. The watershed has approximately five times the area of the swamp, and in early days, as much as one-half the thirty two thousand acres was under water for practically the entire year. It was not unusual in the Spring, for the swamp to be under from two to five feet of water. …
