Distribution Of Latex In Impregnated Paper, Donald Ward Nay

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Introduction

Impregnation of paper products first began in the early 1920's. It became an important aspect of the industry during World War II when several factors came together to provide the basis for its growth. First of all, the development of synthetic materials provided many new agents with new properties in which to impregnate with. New equipment available at this same time made application and control of the process much easier. To put the drive in the new area, there simultaneously occurred a realization of many new products that impregnated papers could provide. The most important of those during World …

Mosaic Disease Of Cucumbers : A New Resistant Variety, H L. Harvey

Famous Sheep Breeds. 2. The Corriedale, J A. Mallett

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

THE Corriedale sheep is a breed which has achieved widespread popularity throughout the world as a dual-purpose animal.

It was evolved by New Zealand breeders who—not fully satisfied with the performance of either the Merino or the British longwool sheep under their conditions—sought an animal which would combine the superlative wool-producing properties, and outstanding foraging ability of the Merino with the better meat production and better mothering qualities of the British sheep.

Bulletin No 3410 - Design Of Dairy Premises, A. L. Hamilton, F. J. Fielder

Bulletins - 3000 - 3999

CONDITIONS in the dairy industry are changing rapidly.

There is a trend towards larger and more convenient milking sheds. Farmers have accepted that economic production is possible only with relatively large herds; they are thinking bigger than before. The aim is for herds of 100 or more, instead of the earlier objective of 40 to 50 cows.

To enable herds of this size to be milked quickly, premises must be designed for convenience and to enable cows to be handled without unnecessary movement on the part of the operators.

Also of the greatest importance is the need for the design …

Enzymatic Sulfurylation Mechanisms, Irving Hyman Goldberg

Student Theses and Dissertations

Sulfate activation and transfer to lipids, polysaccharides, and aminoalkyl phenols have been studied In a variety of biological systems. The transfer of S³⁵O₄ from radioactive 3'-phosphoadenoslne 5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS³⁵) into lipid-soluble material has been investigated in cell-free preparations of rat brain and liver. In brain of 10-20 day old rats activity was found in the particulate fraction of the homogenate, whereas in young adult rat liver activity resided in the supernatant fraction (105,000 x g). In both systems incorporation was stimulated by the addition of a crude mixture of the isomers of N-acetyl sphingosine. Evidence accumulated …

The Biology Of A Colonial Hydroid, Chandler Montgomery Fulton

Student Theses and Dissertations

Simple invertebrate metazoa offer many potentialities for study of growth and differentiation - potentialities which have not been realized because the organisms usually have been difficult to handle in the laboratory. A simple coelenterate, the brackish-water colonial hydroid Cordylophora lacustris, was selected for the present work, and was domesticated so that it could be grown and manipulated under controlled laboratory conditions. Methods have been developed permitting exponential increase in hydranth number with a doubling time of about three days. Five ions — Na⁺, K⁺, Ca⁺⁺, Mg⁺⁺, Cl^- — have been found …

The response to sulphate of ammonia varies markedly with the season.

Pinkeye In Sheep : Some Timely Comments, F C. Wilkinson

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

DURING the summer months, it is almost inevitable that numbers of sheep in Western Australia will suffer from contagious ophthalmia—or pinkeye, to give the disease its more popular name.

As it can be quite a distressing disease which can cause severe setbacks, most flock owners, knowing that medicaments are available for the treatment of pinkeye, will feel that they should do something for the affected animals.

Insect Pests : Aphides, Clee Francis Howard Jenkins

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

THE members of the aphis family are remarkable creatures both in structure and habits.

They are practically world-wide in their distribution and despite their small size and apparent fragility they thrive under a wide variety of conditions and are among the most prolific breeders in the animal kingdom

Diseases Recorded On Cereals, Grasses And Pasture Legumes In Western Australia, S C. Chambers

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

This list constitutes a revision of portion of the census published by Came (1925) and supplemented by the same author in 1927.

It also contains records of diseases identified in the period between these earlier publications and December 31, 1959.

The list is divided into two sections, the first dealing with pasture legumes and the second with cereals and grasses.

The sections are arranged alphabetically according to the botanical names of the host plants. In general, the viral, bacterial, fungal and nematodal diseases and physiological disorders are listed in that order.

Wild Dog Control In The North-West, R J. Fraser

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

BECAUSE of its sparsely-settled condition, the North-West of Western Australia is almost an ideal breeding-ground and hunting-ground for wild dogs.

Even the best of the pastoral country is but thinly populated and there are large areas of rugged country which is seldom traversed by white men.

Record Keeping On Dairy Farms, R A. Bettenay

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

FARMING today is very much a business venture and the successful farmer is the one who is not only capable of doing the manual work, but who also has the ability to plan the work routine and determine which of the possible avenues is likely to bring the greatest financial return.

For this, and many other reasons, simple but adequate records must be kept by all dairy farmers.

Many types of records should be kept but if a routine is followed, a few moments' work each evening will suffice to keep things up to date.

Foster-Mothering Of Calves, Maurice C. Cullity, K. W. Simes

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

"SAVE those calves" is a slogan which has been used frequently in propaganda to reduce the slaughter of heifers when it is thought that the supply of replacement animals to our dairy herds might be unduly low.

Although there is no fear of this at present, the wastage of calves both heifers and bulls, in Western Australia is unduly large.

How Much Food Should I Give My Dog?, F C. Wilkinson

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

THIS is a question which every veterinary surgeon has heard hundreds of times, and one that it is impossible to answer in general terms because dogs differ so much in their food requirements and because the nutrient values of various foodstuffs vary considerably.

The Problem Of Low Solids-Not-Fat In Milk, Laurence C. Snook

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

TO the consumer of milk, the solids-not-fat fractions is of prime importance.

This contains the protein, the minerals and the milk-sugar which collectively make milk such a valuable and palatable food.

If we wish to encourage increased consumption of milk as a health food it is essential that quality must be maintained and if possible improved.

Producers and distributors must always remember that if maximum sales are to be obtained, the needs of the consumer must remain paramount.

The Care Of The Breeding Sow, P C. Beck

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

PIG-RAISING is a specialised field of animal production, which, to be profitable must incorporate both a scientific and a practical approach.

These two factors must be complementary, for without a sound practical approach, the value of the scientific principles involved, e.g., in breeding and compounding rations would accordingly be reduced.

Teaser (Vasectomised) Rams : A Management Advantage, W L. Mcgarry, I. K. Stott

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

WITH normal late spring-early summer matings (October-December) teaser rams, correctly used, will give a more concentrated lambing.

This has been shown under Western Australian conditions in trials conducted at the Wongan Hills Research Station.

In one experiment a group of 100 ewes which had one per cent, of teasers for 14 days before the fertile rams went in, dropped 42 lambs in the first two weeks of lambing, compared with 17 lambs from 100 ewes that were not teased.

The use of teasers in all Research Station flocks is now routine practice.

Rabbit Control In 1960, C Marshall

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

IN the year 1859, an enthusiastic sportsman in Victoria took delivery from the clipper "Lightning" of a small consignment of wild European rabbits which he joyfully released on his estate at Barwon Park, near Geelong, in order to assure himself of some rough shooting.

He was not the only rabbit importer on record—tame rabbits were brought into Australia before and after 1895 and doubtless there were other importations of the wild rabbit—but he is generally credited—or discredited—with having triggered off the rabbit plague.
