Suggestions For The Handling Of Certain Mammals, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

For experimental work, it is often desirable to handle the smaller wild mammals more freely than usual methods allow. Howell (Journal of Mammalogy (1937) 18(4): 513) suggests the feeding of pentobarbital sodium in milk or other food. While this may be satisfactory for animals accustomed to captivity, it can hardly be used for those newly captured.

Bulletin No. 327 - Utah Agricultural Experiment Station Biennial Report, 1944-1946, R. H. Walker

UAES Bulletins

During the past biennium there has been a general expansion in the research program of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station. Although some of the investigations were curtailed by lack of personnel and equipment and the pressure of wartime assignments, many of the staff were able to devote more time to research because of a lessening of the teaching load at the College. The emergency caused a re-examination of the research program, old projects, no longer urgent were weeded out, others were revised to meet the needs of the changing times, and many new projects were initiated to extend the research …

A Survey Of Intestinal Protozoa At The Stockton State Hospital : Stockton, California, Lawrence Melvin Gholz

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

During the past months much has been published in periodicals, especially those of a pictorial nature, which discredits institutions established for the care of' the mentally ill throughout the nation. Many articles have been presented which show an intelligent approach, but the majority of these treatments are by those who are basing too much on a very narrow experience. For example, one news magazine recently printed a picture of a mental patient in institutional garb sitting on a bench in one of the poses most characteristic of a catatonic. The caption of the picture seemed to ignore this significant fact …

The Goss Lemming Mouse, Synaptomys Cooperi Gossii (Goues), In Nebraska, Edson Fichter, Merle F. Hansen

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

In the course of studies on the cestode parasites of microtine rodents by one of the authors (Hansen), specimens of mice were sent to the United State National Museum where they were identified by Dr. David H. Johnson. Two of these microtines proved to be Synaptomys cooperi gossii (Coues). These specimens of Synaptomys (U.S.N.M. Nos. 282343 and 282344), collected at Lincoln, Lancaster County, Nebraska, on September 16, 1946 (male) and November 20, 1946 (female), respectively, are the first ones to be identified from Nebraska.

Farm Fishponds, Verne E. Davison

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

An important part of soil and moisture conservation is making the best use of every acre on the farm. Where a suitable site for a farm pond exists, no better use can be made of such land than to develop it for the production of fish for the farm family. The recreation the pond affords adds much to the pleasure of rural life.

Thousands of farms have good pond sites. Properly developed and managed ponds may provide both food and pleasure to more than a million farm people.

This bulletin tells how to have good ponds. It explains how to …

A Redescription Of Taenia Taxidiensis Skinker, 1935, Robert Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Since the original description of Taenia taxidiensis Skinker, 1935,2 was based on an incomplete and apparently immature cestode, a redescription seems desirable.

The following description is based on 28 cestodes, taken from three infected badgers, Taxidea taxus (Schreber), all collected in southern Wisconsin. Of these, only one strobila had gravid segments, the others being immature. Most of the data given below are based on the single mature specimen, with additional measurements, where Possible, from the immature worms. No sections were made of these specimens, and the measurements given were taken fl·om stained wholemounts.

Andrya Sciuri N. Sp., A Cestode From The Northern Flying Squirrel, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Among helminths taken from four northern flying squirrels (Glaucomys sabrinus macrotis Mearns) were two cestodes belonging to the genus Andrya. These represent an undescribed species. The infected flying squirrels were collected in or near tamarack bogs during February, 1947, near Millston, Jackson County, Wisconsin.

Some Microtechnical Experiments And Recommendations Of New Prestaining Techniques, Edward D. Wood

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The preparation and staining of biological structures for microscopic examination is of extreme importance to the science of biology since almost all phases of biological advance are, at least to some degree, dependent upon microtechnical methods. Nevertheless, research workers and students of biological science are sooner or later impressed with the inadequacy of many of the microtechnical methods used by them and their colleagues. In the field of microtechnique there is difficulty in finding standardized methods which will uniformly bring optimum results. Throughout most procedures there seem to be variables over which no definite controls have been established. Microtechniques have, …

Contributions To The Study On Helminth Fauna Of Dillon Beach, Francis C. Gale

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Studies on trematodes of marine organisms of the Pacific Coast have been of a scattered and fragmentary nature. J. Stafford (1904) collected and described a number of trematodes from fishes of the north Pacific, but, in his historical survey, Manter (1926) fails to mention specifically any studies covering the waters south of Canada. More recently, in the United States, several contributions to the field have been made by Dr. John E. Guberlet at the University of Washington and at the College of the Pacific by Dr. Alden Noble, under whose guidance this study was made. James Park (1937) revised the …

The Nebraska Egg Cooler, I. L. Williams, F. E. Mussehl

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

Every producer knows that heat is harmful to the quality of eggs, and that the first step in holding fine egg quality is prompt removal of the animal heat. The Nebraska egg cooler has been developed for this purpose. Construction costs are moderate, and repeated observations demonstrate the effectiveness of the principle. Its basic factor is the temperature-reducing effect of cool, humid air passing over the eggs, as soon as possible after they are gathered.

The Geologic History Of The Bison In The Great Plains (A Preliminary Report), C. Bertrand Schultz, W. D. Frankforter

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

THE GEOLOGIC history of the bison in North America is a subject which has received little attention to date. Osteological rather than geological problems have been the main concern of most writers who have so far published. If the geologic history of the bison is to be learned, it will be necessary to devote more time and effort in the field in determining the age of the deposits in which various specimens have been discovered and in making more extensive collections from deposits of known age. Unfortunately the majority of the type specimens have been surface finds and little attempt …

The Effects Of Estrogens On The Thyroid & Adrenal Glands Of The Male Turtle, Jeanne Frances Genrich

Bachelors’ Theses

Up to the present time there appears to have been very little research done on the thyroid or adrenal glands of the turtle. This seems to be especially true in respect to the effects of estrogens on these two glands. However, some work has been reported on other members of the reptilian family; particularly garter snakes, and more recently, the lizard.

Pig Typhus (Salmonellosis Suis), L. Van Es

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Salmonellosis suis or pig typhus, also designated as pig typhoid, infectious necrotic enteritis, or "necro," is an infectious disease among young pigs. It constitutes a major factor in the mortality of juvenile swine, and as such must be regarded as a more or less perennial hazard in swine production. Infectious necrotic enteritis caused by Salmonella suipestifer is the subject of the present publication.
