Description Of Elements Of The Life Cycle Of A New Species Of Leucochloridiomorpha (Trematode: Brachylaemidae) From Southwestern Michigan, Jon Shoemaker

Masters Theses

Introduction

During the period extending from September, 1959 to July, 1960, 553 snails, of the species Campeloma decisum, were collected from Portage Creek in the southeast corner of the SE 1/4, Sec. 34, T. 2 S., R. 11 W., Kalamazoo County, Michigan. Metacercariae, closely related to Leucochloridiomorpha constantiae of the monotypic genus, Leucohloridiomorpha, were found in the uteri of several snails. Subsequent studies showed the metacercariae to be an undescribed species. Life history studies showed that this form developed experimentally in the chicken and domestic duck. In this paper stages in the life cycle are described.

Notes On The Tardigrades Of Southwestern Michigan, James J. Sawtell

Masters Theses

Introduction

Tardigrades, comprising fewer than 350 species, are microscopic animals which inhabit mosses, lichens, and algae. Tardigrades or "water bears" are distributed throughout the world. These invertebrates are found in fresh-water substrates (Cooke, 1959; Marcus, 1939, Moore, 1939; Pennak, 1940), marine substrates (Chitwood, 1951; Green, 1950; Jeannel et al., 1940; Marcus, 1927, 1946; Pennak, 1953:240; Wieser, 1959) and terrestrial habitats (Cuenot, 1929; Marcus, 1960; Rodriguez-Roda, 1948; Pennak, 1953:240). The "water bears" have also been found in the psammolittoral zone where they live between grains of sand, (Pennak, 1940) and there feed on algal cells (Marcus, 1929). Tardigrades puncture the cell …

Studies On The Role Of The Seed Coat In The Germination Of Rhodotypos Kerrioides, Glenn H. Campbell

Masters Theses

Introduction

The propagation of plants by seeds is often made difficult by dormancy in seeds. A dormant seed is one that will not germinate when it is exposed to conditions favorable for germination. Such seeds will begin growth, however, after they have been subjected to the proper after-ripening conditions. Therefore, the grower must wait several months in many cases before his seeds will germinate. Since it is often desirable to determine the viability of seeds at an early date, seed dormancy has presented a major problem to the farmer. The testing of dormant seeds (4,6,44,56,64,) is widely practiced and rules …

4-H Handicraft Guide : Ceramics - Mosaics, Delphia Dirks

SDSU Extension Circulars

Ceramics are objects made of fired clay. To make a shiny finish, the objects are glazed. This means covering with a glassy-like substance and firing in a kiln. Clay can be formed into many shapes; vases, bowls, and ornaments are very popular. When you decide on your project, choose something you enjoy doing and can use. Start with a ball of clay and work with it until you have the shape you want. If you don't like what you have made, squeeze it together and start over. Use your imagination.

Materials such as wood, ivory, bone, and stones were used …

4-H Handicraft Guide : Color And Design, Delphia Dirks

SDSU Extension Circulars

We all have favorite colors but we should remember that no color is ugly. If used in the right place and in the right amount, every color is beautiful. Colors must suit the purpose for which they have been chosen. They must be combined so as to enhance one another. Look at examples of good art and study their color schemes. Look at different color schemes in magazines and see if they are analogous, triad, etc. Note how the same hues are brightened and darkened - sometimes in the same pictures or designs.

Cold Caustic Soda Pulping Of Eucalyptus Saligna, Tachipully A. Bhaskaran

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

A survey has been prepared covering the literature on the cold caustic soda pulping of Eucalyptus saligna. The survey was broadened to include pulping of all species of Eucalyptus by this particular process.

Experimental pulping of Eucalyptus saligna by the cold caustic soda process under a variety of conditions as well as pulping of aspen wood under one condition led to the following conclusions:

(a) Eucalyptus saligna is suitable for the manufacture of cold caustic soda pulp.

(b) alkali concentration of 30 grams per liter on full size chips of Eucalyptus saligna produces the best strength properties and fairly good …

A Quantitative Study Of The Effect Of Cutting & Fibrillation On Certain Paper Properties, Edwin C. Abbott

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Introduction

From the time of the invention of paper about the year 105 by Ts'ai Lun, the process of beating the pulp as a preliminary to forming a sheet of paper has been recognized as of prime importance.

Early papermakers did not concern themselves greatly with theories; it was enough to know the process necessary to produce the various combinations of long and short, slow and free stocks according to the paper being made. When chemists began to enter the mills, however, their attention was naturally drawn to this important aspect of beating, and to the relationship between cellulose and …

"Know Your Land" Program For South Dakota, E. J. Williamson, Robert Papendick, Lloyd E. Davis

SDSU Extension Circulars

A systematic study of the soil is the basic tool for determining the capabilities and limitations of land. Land judging is used to teach and promote a better understanding of soils through a study of the physical properties of the soil and to show how to use these properties in determining proper land use. Most of the characteristics that are used to identify soils can be determined in the field.

Organizing Watersheds In South Dakota, Joseph T. Paulson, Fay Kerr

SDSU Extension Circulars

Wherever you live, you are within a watershed. Your farm, ranch, home on a town lot, or your business in the city are all within the natural boundaries of some watershed. All the lands and waters of the nation are bounded by natural drainage divides. Federal and state watershed acts are intended to help you and your neighbors manage your watershed, conserve the soil, and make better use of the rain where it falls. The federal act provides for technical and financial assistance, whereas the state act provides for necessary administration, operations, and management. The state act provides a taxing …
