What's Wrong With That Plant?, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia Jan 1960

What's Wrong With That Plant?, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

EACH year several thousand inquiries are received from people who want to know "What's wrong with that plant?" The plants range from common fruit, vegeable and pasture plants to rare ornamentals.

In most cases, the inquiries can be answered satisfactorily by Departmental officers who specialise in the study of various plant troubles.


Lamb For Good Living, H M. Gloster Jan 1960

Lamb For Good Living, H M. Gloster

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

LAMB is at its best in the spring. With careful planning the housewife is able to serve it in a large variety of ways.

The favourite meal is Roast Lamb, or to be more correct baked lamb. Usually the forequarter or leg is baked. For a small roast, a piece of loin or part of the leg may be cooked.

Bitter Pit : A Progress Report On The Use Of Calcium Nitrate Sprays For Its Control, Frank Melville, S. E. Hardisty

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

FREEDOM from serious pests and diseases such as Black Spot and Codling Moth and relative immunity from storage rots has greatly simplified apple growing in Western Australia.

However, what has been gained in this respect is often countered by pre-harvest and post-harvest physiological troubles which are rather common to apple growing in this State.

How Efficient Is Your Drenching Gun? Does It Deliver Sufficient Drench To Kill The Worms?, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia Jan 1960

How Efficient Is Your Drenching Gun? Does It Deliver Sufficient Drench To Kill The Worms?, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE drenching gun pictured certainly doesn't. It is set to give two fluid ounces of drench (60 ccs approximately). However, when tested by squirting the fluid into a measuring cylinder, instead of down the sheep's gullet, it delivered only 30 ccs.


Studies In The Mulga Pastoral Zone. 1. The Grazing Of Wandarrie Grass Associations, D G. Wilcox Jan 1960

Studies In The Mulga Pastoral Zone. 1. The Grazing Of Wandarrie Grass Associations, D G. Wilcox

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

THE establishment of the Wiluna office of the North-West Branch marked the commencement of a series of investigations into the pastures of the mulga zone.

Unlike the agricultural areas where a fund of knowledge exists on the growth habits of the pastures, the pastures of this area were completely unknown.

The preliminary investigations had to be aimed at forming an understanding of the reactions of the various plants to rain, to temperature and seasonal conditions and to grazing in an area of extremely low rainfall reliability.

Malaysian Parasites Xxxv-Xlix, W. W. Macdonald Jan 1960

Malaysian Parasites Xxxv-Xlix, W. W. Macdonald

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

This is the third Study of the series from this Institute on the external and internal parasites and the biting insects of the Malaysian region. The earlier two volumes were planned and edited by Dr. J.R. Audy, and on his departure from Malaya in the middle of 1959 Mr. W. W. Macdonald continued the work which had been begun and collated and edited the papers in this present Study.

In the two previous volumes (Study No. 26, 1954 and No. 28, 1957) the emphasis was on the taxonomy of Trombiculid mites. In the present volume the emphasis has changed, and …


Observations On The Biology Of Schistocerca Venusta, David Allyn King Jan 1960

Observations On The Biology Of Schistocerca Venusta, David Allyn King

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Statement Qf the problem. The green valley grasshopper, Schistoceroa venusta Scudder, is one of the most common grasshoppers to be found in the San Joaquin Valley and environs. Despite the fact that the insect is commonplace, very little work has been done on its biology. It was the purpose of this study, therefore, to learn by field and laboratory observations of the life cycle and habits of Schistoceroa venusta.

Opportunities And Problems Of Using United States Surplus Food To Increase Capital Formation In Underveloped Countries, Ali Ahmed Attiga Aug 1959

Opportunities And Problems Of Using United States Surplus Food To Increase Capital Formation In Underveloped Countries, Ali Ahmed Attiga

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

This study is an elaboration of the thesis that, under certain conditions and assumptions regarding the economies of underdeveloped countries, surplus food could provide a valuable and unique form of additional funds for accelerating capital formation in these countries. The central ideas of this thesis, including the conditions and assumptions which underlie their validity and some of their practical implications are examined in Chapter II. Chapter I consists of some background in formation on present inequality of wealth between the advanced and the less developed countries of the world and the economic and political implications of such inequality. Part of …


Grain Merchandising At The Country Elevator, Arthur B. Sogn Aug 1959

Grain Merchandising At The Country Elevator, Arthur B. Sogn

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

The general public including the patrons has little knowledge of the internal operations of country elevators. This is due in part to the lack of adequate communication between the operator and his customers or patrons. In consequence the patrons too often fail to understand why a certain price for their grain is offered or why certain charges are made for services rendered. The farmer expects and is entitled to a ready market for his grains. The farmer may elect to sell his grain immediately at the current price, store it with the idea of obtaining a better price later, or …

Studies On The Biological Oxidation Of Ferrous Iron And Chalcopyrite, Loral Alvin Decker Aug 1959

Studies On The Biological Oxidation Of Ferrous Iron And Chalcopyrite, Loral Alvin Decker

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effectiveness of the leaching streams from waste copper ore dumps as a nutrient solution for subsequent biological oxidation and solubilization of sulfide minerals. The copper in the leaching streams is precipitated by displacement with iron. As a result of this procedure the solution is high in ferrous iron concentration and has a pH of near 3.7. The bacteria in the leaching streams are capable of oxidizing ferrous iron to the ferric state and sulfide minerals to sulfates. The effects of temperatures, pH, urea, and aeration rate on the oxidation of the …
