Good Nutrition For The Family, Ethelwyn B. Wilcox

Faculty Honor Lectures

A BASIC OBJECTIVE of the Faculty Association of UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY, in the words of its constitution, is to encourage intellectual growth and development of its members by sponsoring and arranging for the publication of two annual faculty lectures in the fields of (a) the biological and exact sciences, including engineering, called the Annual Faculty Honor Lecture in the Natural Sciences; and (b) the humanities and social sciences, including education and business administration, called the Annual Faculty Honor Lecture in the Humanities. The administration of the University is sympathetic with these aims and shares the cost of publishing and distributing …


Bleak Reports Coming From Waterfowl Breeding Grounds, Ross Leffler Jan 1959

Bleak Reports Coming From Waterfowl Breeding Grounds, Ross Leffler

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

There is no optimism expressed in the reports from the Flyway Biologists and other observers making surveys on the waterfowl breeding grounds in Canada and the United States. The only bright spot is a report from Fairbanks, Alaska, that the Yukon Flats and other breeding areas in that vicinity are well populated with waterfowl. While this is a heartening sign, only in a small degree does it offset the prospects for poor production in the heart of the continental breeding grounds in the Prairie States and Provinces.

As one observer with many years of experience in the prairies has put …


Water Systems For The Farm, William Peterson Jan 1959

Water Systems For The Farm, William Peterson

SDSU Extension Circulars

Water under pressure is necessary on the modern farm. Probably more tons of water are needed than any other single product handled on the farm. Handling it automatically, with a pressure system, will save much work and time. Without water under pressure, animals often do not get enough water and production efficiency suffers. The home will be more sanitary if plenty of water, under pressure, is available.

Modern Meals : An "Inside" Story, Cleora Ewalt

SDSU Extension Circulars

Sparkling good health is the greatest gift you can give your family. Your children are homemaking trainees and can learn from you. Hundreds of scientific studies show that there is no substitute for good food in the right amounts for building a healthy body. As a result of such research: We know the minimum daily requirements for food values. Better, we have Recommended Daily Allowances that provide a safe margin or individual differences. The foods we need each day are divided into Basic 7 or Basic 4 groups that furnish similar body needs. We know what food values each of …

Men Of Science In Texas, 1820-1880: Ii, S. W. Geiser

Field and Laboratory

In the last issue of Field & Laboratory (26, 86-139) appeared the first 331 sketches (Abadie to Gilbert) of collectors, explorers, and observers, in a series that will extend through several issues. My fears of omissions were justified: I find that a sketch of Samuel Botsford Buckley (1809-84), a graduate of Wesleyan University in Connecticut, and twice State Geologist of Texas (1866-7 and 1874-5) was unaccountably omitted. This omission is the more notable since for twenty years I have been holding in abeyance the publication of a sketch of Buckley (on whom I have very extensive materials) waiting for a …


An Iron Fulgurite From Nebraska, C. M. Riley Jan 1959

An Iron Fulgurite From Nebraska, C. M. Riley

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

From the time of the ancients man has been impressed with the force of lightning and its effect on the rocks at the surface of the earth. It was Saussure in 1786 who first wrote a scientific account of a true fulgurite, and a wealth of literature has been written about the subject since this time. Many unusual fulgurites have been described, some of which may not truly be the result of lightning. The iron fulgurite is a strange conical object about 3 inches high composed mainly of tiny spheres and filaments of metallic iron intermixed with a small amount …


Rb59-187 The Existing Space In Nebraska Multistory Square Farm Houses, Jerre Lewis Withrow, Florence Mckinney Jan 1959

Rb59-187 The Existing Space In Nebraska Multistory Square Farm Houses, Jerre Lewis Withrow, Florence Mckinney

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

Many of our farm homes do not satisfactorily meet the needs of the family and its living patterns. Thirty to 50 years ago little thought was given to certain aspects of housing which are considered essential today. It is obvious, to even the casual observer, that improvements should be made in living space, work areas, utilities and appliances.

The 1959 survey of the two story square house parallels the multi-story tee house study (RB58-186 The Existing Space in Nebraska Multistory Tee Houses) as to area covered and type of data collected. One hundred and seven houses were included …

Observations On The Biology Of Pelomyxa Palustris Greeff, Collected Under Polysaprobic Conditions, Daniel Henry Stern

Master's Theses

Pelomyxa palustris Greeff, the largest rhizopod of which we have knowledge, was described in 1870 by Greeff who named the organism Pelobius. According to Penard (1902) it was redescribed by Archer in 1871 and reviewed. by Greeff (1874) who then gave it the name P. palustris.

Harry Scott Smith, Biological Control: Riverside (1883-1957): University Of California: In Memoriam, 1959, A. M. Boyce, H. Compere, R. Van Den Bosch

Department of Entomology: Faculty Publications

Harry Smith was born at Aurora, Nebraska, November 29, 1883. He was brought up as a farm boy and experienced all the rigors of life on a prairie farm in the latter part of the nineteenth century. The hours of work in the fields, from dawn to dusk, made an indelible impression. Admittedly, he escaped from “haying” and “tending hogs” by enrolling in the State University at Lincoln, where he worked his way by waiting on tables at fifteen cents an hour. There he was granted his A.B. degree in 1907 and his M.S. degree in 1908. Insects became his …

The External Morphology Of The First Zoeal Stages Of Cancer Magister (Dana), Cancer Antennarius (Stimpson), And Cancer Anthonyi (Rathbun), Robert Dotson Mir

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The literature dealing with the larva of Pacific Coast brachyuran crabs is slight. The prominent papers, those of Aikawa (1927, 1928, 1929, 1933, 1937), deal with a variety of genera and offer information useful in determin- ing family relationships. A single paper by Hart (1935) also deal with a number of brachyuran larvae found in the Pacific Ocean. None of these papers, however, identifies to species any member of the genus Cancer, although one member, C. magister (Dana) is of considerable economic importance on the pacific coast of North America. In the fall of 1958 an investigation was under taken …
