Poultry Progress: What Are Good Chickens?, F. E. Mussehl

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The desire for improvement is one of the highest of human virtues. Folks everywhere want good chickens. The poultry business is a competitive enterprise, and it is imperative that we have the best stock possible for the particular job to be done. But what are good chickens? Is there confusion about the term? Perhaps we can clarify the picture by asking one or two questions.

Poultry Progress: How Long Should A Chicken Live?, F. E. Mussehl

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

Increased laying flock mortality has disturbed thoughtful hatcherymen, producers, processors, and research workers for several years, and very properly so, because hens which die before their time serve no useful purpose, except to raise in our minds the question, "Why?"

The Development Of Bone In The Chick Embryo, Helen M. Koelsch

Bachelors’ Theses

The day by day development of the bone in the chicken embryo as determined by the fixing and staining of embryos for each twenty-four hour growth period during the time of greatest skeletal development, is the subject of this paper. The stage in the embryological history of the chick during which the most important phases of bone development occur was determined to be the period between the seventh and the sixteenth days of incubation. It is therefore the purpose of this investigation to give an account of the growth and development of the bones of the ordinary domestic fowl as …

The Utilization Of Grasses And Forbs In Relation To The Intensity Of Grazing In The Mixed Prairie Near Hays, Kansas, Noel Runyon

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The principal occupation of the inhabitants in the Great Plains Region is livestock farming. The problems confronting the farmers and ranchers of this large area are many and varied. Not the least of these problems is the one of a proper stocking rate for the various types of ranges in order to secure a maximum production with the least in capital outlay and range deterioration. Another problem that has presented itself in recent years is the one of revegetating thousands of acres of marginal and semi-marginal land so that mother nature may again heal the marks of erosion and bring …

Bulletin No. 314 - Gains Made By Cattle On Summer Range In Northern Utah, L. A. Stoddart

UAES Bulletins

The Utah Agricultural Experiment Station, in 1934, began experimental studies on the grazing of beef steers on mountainous summer range lands. Although the direct purpose of this work was to find whether supplementing phosphorus in the diet of grazing steers would increase their gains, many incidental observations proved of great interest. Among the most significant were the distribution and extent of weight gains through the summer grazing season and the effects of various factors such as weather upon the gains, causing them to vary greatly from year to year.

The Mosquitoes Of Nebraska, H. Douglas Tate, Doris B. Gates

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

A survey of mosquitoes in Nebraska was conducted by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station during 1942 and 1943. The object of the study was to determine the species, relative abundance, seasonal occurrence, and principal breeding places of mosquitoes in representative areas of the state. This report presents the results of the survey, and, in addition, some records and observations made in Nebraska by other workers during and previous to initiation of the project.

Benjamin Taylor Kavanaugh, And The Discovery Of East Texas Oil, S. W. Geiser

Nutritional Status Of Some Utah Population Groups, Almeda Perry Brown

Faculty Honor Lectures

The science of nutrition is the science of life. Though man is still ignorant of the true nature of that elusive force we call life, he has learned by means of the discovered laws of nutrition how to preserve and prolong life as well as how to add to the satisfactions of living.

The emergence of the sicence of nutrition from the maze of superstition which for centuries clouded man's thinking is a fascinating story. A story, however, that arouses a feeling of regret that for so long a time man was willing to attribute to supernatural forces all phenomena …

Southeastern South Dakota Farm Record Project 1943 Annual Report, C.R. Hoglund

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

A new farm record project was started in 1943 by the Agricultural Experiment Station in cooperation with the Agricultural Extension Service. Previous to 1943 it had been customary for the Extension Service to summarize farm records sent in to the state office by farmers. The purpose of the new project was to obtain more detailed farm record information which would be useful in planning improvements in the organization and operation of farms in the various areas of the state. The analysis of the records and the preparation of the report was carried out by the Experiment Station under the direction …

Second Report Of The Committee On Grasshopper Research Appointed By The American Association Of Economoic Entomologists. Part 1, Work Conducted By State Agencies Of The United States., Agricultural Experiment Station, South Dakota State College

Agricultural Experiment Station Entomology Pamphlets (1940-1952)

This is the second report of the Committee on Grasshopper Research. The appointment of such a committee was first authorized at the San Francisco meeting of the American Association of Economic Entomologists in 1942 and was appointed by President Harry B. Weiss. Dr. P. N. Annand, who succeeded Dr. Weiss as president of the American Association of Economic Entomologists in 1943, requested that the entire personal of the committee appointed by Dr. Weiss continue to function for another year. The committee members agreed to do this.

Notes On The Trematode Subfamily Loimoinae (Monogenea), With A Description Of A New Genus, Harold W. Manter, Waldo L. Schmitt

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Library Materials

The subfamily Loimoinae was named by Price (1936) for a peculiar monogenetic trematode, Loimos salpinggoides MacCal lum, 1917, from the gills of a dusky shark, Carcharias obscurus (Lesueur), at Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA. Price (1938) redescribed this trematode, correcting several errors made by MacCallum. Manter (1938) described Tricotyle scoliodoni from a shark, Scoliodon terrae-novae (Richardson), from Beaufort, North Carolina, USA. He noted some similarities between Tricotyle and Loimos. The redescription of Loimos by Price increased these similarities.

A Comparative Study Of Dehydration And Infiltration, Jane C. Mahar

Bachelors’ Theses

Dehydration is the process of removing water from tissue which has been fixed and hardened. It is a necessary step for the Infiltration of paraffin. If the dehydrating agent is not a solvent of the paraffin, it is necessary to use a solvent first and then infiltrate with paraffin. Dehydration, according to Sass (1940), has some washing action besides making the material firm and, in some cases, hard and brittle. When Bouin’s fixing fluid is used, ethyl alcohol is the solvent used in removing the solution and in washing the material. Dehydrating agents which possess hygrosopic properties are those most …
