An Economic Evaluation Of Feeding Sucrose To Beef And Swine Prior To Slaughter, Douglas C. Strong May 1955

An Economic Evaluation Of Feeding Sucrose To Beef And Swine Prior To Slaughter, Douglas C. Strong

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Animal feeding rations have long included carbohydrates as a primary constituent. Grains are included in most animal fattening rations, and the by-products of sugar beets have been used f or many years in livestock feeding (Kutish 1950 b). The use of molasses in commercial feed mixes in 1899 made possible its extended use in animal feeding practices (Hall 1950).


Detection Of Coumarin In Seeds Involving Crosses Between Two Species Of Melilotus, William H. Davis May 1955

Detection Of Coumarin In Seeds Involving Crosses Between Two Species Of Melilotus, William H. Davis

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Sweet clover has become increasingly important as a forage and green manure crop. The main objection in recent years to sweet clover is its coumarin content, identified by a sweet odor and bitter taste, making it less desirable to farm animals. When sweet clover hay spoils, the coumarin is converted into dicoumarol which is toxic to animals, especially to ruminants. When ingested this may cause internal and/or external hemorrhages.

The Use Of Saline-Soluble Tissue-Proteins In Systematic Serology, William B. Stallcup Apr 1955

The Use Of Saline-Soluble Tissue-Proteins In Systematic Serology, William B. Stallcup

Field and Laboratory

In recent years the emphasis of taxonomic studies in many animal groups has been at or near the species level, with often little done to clarify the relationships of the higher taxonomic units. This was either because it was felt that these units needed no revision, or that there was not enough new information at hand to warrant any revision. In many cases, groups of genera have been placed in a family simply because of some superficial resemblance.

Bee Visitors Of Penstemon Ellipticus (Scrophuhlariaeceae) On Eddy Peak, Sanders County, Mont., In Summer Of 1954, Robert Kral Apr 1955

Bee Visitors Of Penstemon Ellipticus (Scrophuhlariaeceae) On Eddy Peak, Sanders County, Mont., In Summer Of 1954, Robert Kral

Field and Laboratory

Eddy Peak, in the Cabinet National Forest of northwest Montana, is part of a large fault system in which thousands of feet of shale were thrust up to form an escarpment overlooking the Clark Fork River. The summit elevation is 7500 feet. Fracturing of the uppermost layers of shale has resulted in many talus slopes, some of them hundreds of yards from top to bottom, on the dip side of the strata. Parts of the mountain crest consist of nothing but a jumble of shale blocks in a very unstable state. During the summer of 1954 several slides occurred. Apparently …

Distributional Studies Of Parasitic Arthropods In Utah Determined As Actual And Potential Vectors Of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever And Plague: With Notes On Vector-Host Relationships, D Elden Beck Mar 1955

Distributional Studies Of Parasitic Arthropods In Utah Determined As Actual And Potential Vectors Of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever And Plague: With Notes On Vector-Host Relationships, D Elden Beck

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

Through the courtesy of the National Institutes of Health, Grants and Fellowships Division, a project was established at Brigham Young University to study the distribution and host relationships of vectors for Rocky Mountain spotted fever and plague in the state of Utah.

Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
Of the four capable vectors listed as present in the United States, Dermacentor andersoni and Haemaphysalis leporis palustris are found in Utah. Listed for Utah as potential (experimental) vectors are Dermacentor parumapertus, Dermacentor albipictus, Rhipicephalis sanguineus and Ornithodoros parkeri. Of the potential vectors D. parumapertus is the only species having extensive distribution in Utah. …
