1. Charles Darwin And Organic Evolution, Robert L. Bloom, Basil L. Crapster, Harold L. Dunkelberger, Charles H. Glatfelter, Richard T. Mara, Norman E. Richardson, W. Richard Schubart

Section XV: Biology and the Rise of the Social Sciences

Evolution was not a new idea. The Greeks speculated on it. In the century before Darwin many different evolutionary theories were proposed, among them notable efforts by Buffon, Lamarck, and Goethe. Their common thread was the concept that the succession of biological changes in geological time represented a fact, if not a natural law. The stumbling block was for all of them, as it had been for Cuvier, the concept of fixed species, which clashed with the vision of a distant past populated with races of plants and animals now extinct. It became evident that the idea of fixed species …

Section XV: Biology and the Rise of the Social Sciences

The two areas of the social sciences which were more stimulated by Darwin's research were anthropology and sociology. The Frenchman, Auguste Comte (1798-1857), generally regarded as the father of sociology and the originator of that term, laid the groundwork for the immediate application of the law of evolution to the study of society. Comte's conception of sociology is derived from his philosophy of history. Sharing the Enlightenment belief in progress, Comte saw history evolving through three stages. The first was the theological stage, in which men supplied supernatural explanations for the natural and social phenomena. This was followed bu what …

Section XV: Biology and the Rise of the Social Sciences

Although the contemporary reaction to the implications of evolution was generally one of long-term optimism, an antithetical reaction did exist. Seen in stark terms, evolutionary theories were depressing to those who, on religious or humanitarian grounds, found the reduction of life to an irrational and brutal struggle for existence disturbing and provocative. There was, however, an important body of thought which accepted Darwin's findings without embracing the social or ethical implications of Social Darwinism. Many who studied Darwin came to the conclusion that it was possible to concede that man is an animal, but an animal capable of moral and …

Control Of Hog Lice And Mange, Robert Roselle Jan 1958

Control Of Hog Lice And Mange, Robert Roselle

Department of Entomology: Faculty Publications

The hog louse (Haematopinus suis) is the largest species of louse found on domestic animals. It may attain a length of one-quarter of an inch. The body is oval, and the legs terminate in large, dark claws well adapted to cling to hairs. Hog lice are bluish-gray in color. They are found only on hG>gs except in very unusual cases. The eggs or "nits" are glued to the hairs and hatch in 12 to 20 days. Young lice mature in 10 to 12 days. The average life cycle is about 35 days. Lice suck blood from the host, and …

The Experimental Histopathology Of The "Tumor" On The Brain Of The Stickleback Caused By Diplostomum Baeri Eucaliae Hoffman And Hundley, 1957 (Trematoda: Strigeoidea)), Glenn L. Hoffman, James B. Hoyme Jan 1958

The Experimental Histopathology Of The "Tumor" On The Brain Of The Stickleback Caused By Diplostomum Baeri Eucaliae Hoffman And Hundley, 1957 (Trematoda: Strigeoidea)), Glenn L. Hoffman, James B. Hoyme

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

The structure of the "tumor" on the brain of the stickleback fish, Eucalia inconstans (Kirtland) caused by Diplostomum baeri eucaliae, has been briefly reported (Hoffman and Hoyme, 1957; Hoffman and Hundley, 1957) and consists of an outgrowth of the columnar epithelium of the choroid plexus which surrounds the metacercariae at the postero-lateral aspect of the optic lobes. The present report deals with the experimental development of the "tumor."
No record of a comparable structure in fish could be found and the reader is referred to our earlier paper (Hoffman and Hundley, 1957) for further introduction, and materials and methods.

Studies On The Life-Cycle Of Ornithodiplostomum Ptychocheilus (Faust) (Trematoda: Strigeoieda) And The "Self Cure" Of Infected Fish*, Glenn L. Hoffman

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

During the summer of 1956 the following fish of Turtle River (Arvilla), North Dakota were found infected with the Neascus metacercaria of Ornithodiplostomum ptychocheilus (Faust): Northern common shiner (Notropis cornutus frontalis), bigmouth shiner (Notropis d. dorsalis), creek chub (Semotilus a. atromaculatus), fathead (Pimephales p. promelas), and johnny darter (Boleosoma n. nigrum). The cysts were usually very numerous (up to 400 per fish) in the mesenteries of the chub and common shiner; they were also very numerous in the cranial cavity and in the fat bodies behind the eyes of the …

Evaluation Of Ground Corncobs And Corncob Components As Nutritive Materials In Rations For Beef Cattle, J. Matsushima, T. W. Dowe, V. H. Arthaud Dec 1957

Evaluation Of Ground Corncobs And Corncob Components As Nutritive Materials In Rations For Beef Cattle, J. Matsushima, T. W. Dowe, V. H. Arthaud

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Two feeding trials were conducted to (1) determine the comparative feeding values of ground corncobs with two fractions of the corncobs--namely, the beeswing and woodyring, and (2) to compare different factors that might affect the utilization of ground corncobs and cob fractions in wintering rations for beef cattle.

Swine Production Guide For South Dakota 4-H Club Members, L. J. Kortan

SDSU Extension Circulars

Formerly there were two general types of swine: the lard type and the bacon type. Today, in general, all breeds are considered meat type and are being developed as meat hogs. The more popular breeds are: Hampshire, Berkshire, Yorkshire, Pol.and China, Chesterwhite, Durocs, Spotted Poland China, Tamworth and Landrace. Note the lifelike picture of a finished market hog on this page. An animal like this carries a high percentage of its weight in the most valuable cuts; the ham loins and bacon sides. This is the type of hog now in demand, a type to keep in mind when planning …
