A Market News Service For Livestock Auctions In South Dakota, Gerald E. Marousek

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

Auction sales are an important marketing medium for livestock in this country today. This method of selling is not a new or a novel one. The selling of livestock through auctions was probably adapted from Great Britain, and first used in this country in the early nineteenth century. These sales were most often held to dispose of imported and domestic breeding stock. The first regularly scheduled auction sale with publicly consigned merchandise was established at Union, Iowa, in 1904. From this beginning the number of livestock auctions increased, especially after 1930, This increase was particularly rapid in the twelve Western …

The untimely death, early in 1931, of the Swedish botanist Dr. Eric Ekman was a great loss to the science of botany, and especially to Sweden. It is doubtful whethet anyone will ever match the number of discoveries of plant novelties that he made.

Bulletin No. 371 - Fifty Years Of Dry Land Research At The Nephi Field Station, W. H. Bennett, D. W. Pittman, D. C. Tingey, D. R. Mcallister, H. B. Peterson, I. G. Sampson

UAES Bulletins

The Nephi Field Station is the oldest dry-Iand experimental farm in America still in operation. It was established in 1903 by action of the Utah legislature and has been in continuous operation since. Five other arid experimental farms were established in Utah at the same time (Widtsoe and Merrill 1905) but they were all discontinued prior to 1920 (Harris et al. 1920).

The Nephi Field Station has had a most interesting history, and it is worthy of note that many of the men who were closely associated with it during its early history subsequently distinguished themselves as outstanding leaders. The …

Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska. Xxii. Paranoplocephala Wigginsi N. Sp., A Cestode From An Arctic Ground Squirrel, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

During the summer of 1953, Mr. Edward T. Roche, of the Department of Zoology, University of Southern California, continued observations on the life history of the ground squirrel, Citellus undulatus barrowensis (Merriam), along the Meade River south of Point Barrow, Alaska. In the course of this work, 55 ground squirrels were examined for intestinal parasites, and were found commonly to harbor cestodes. Mr. Roche kindly offered a number of these cestodes to the writer for study, and they represent an undescribed species of Paranoplocephala Liihe, 1910.

In appreciation of the generous cooperation extended to the personnel of this laboratory by …

Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska. Xxi. Taxonomy, Morphological Variation, And Ecology Of Diphyllobothrium Ursi N. Sp. Provis On Kodiak Island, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

According to Eguchi (1934), two species of salmon (Oncorhynchus) serve as a source of human infection by a cestode identified as Diphyllobothrium latum (Linnaeus, 1758), in Japan. The possible role of these fishes in the transmission of cestodes to humans and other animals has not been investigated in North America, nor, apparently, on the Eurasian mainland. However, Ward (1930) reported unidentified Diphyllobothrium-like plerocercoids from Alaskan salmon; Simms and Shaw (1931) collected plerocercoids identified as D. cordiceps (Leidy, 1871) from Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum) from lakes in Oregon; and Wardle (1932) reported plerocercoids of Diphyllobothrium spp. from O. kisutch …

Music And You, Adele Clark Sudlow

SDSU Extension Circulars

After you have selected the best phonograph that you can afford, preferably one with three speeds (78 rpm, 45 rpm, and 33½ rpm), you are ready to begin your home record library. Long-playing records withstand rougher treatment than do the 78's, are easier to store, and will play up to thirty-two minutes per side without interruptions. They're not literally "unbreakable," but they are tough.

Bulletin No. 372 - The Nutritive Value Of Winter Range Plants In The Great Basin As Determined With Digestion Trials With Sheep, C. W. Cook, L. A. Stoddart, L. E. Harris

UAES Bulletins

During the winter grazing seasons from 1946 to 1953, studies were carried on throughout the desert ranges of western Utah to determine nutritive content and digestibility of range forage plants.

These desert areas receive about 7 inches of precipitation annually and the vegetation consists, chiefly, of saltbush and sagebrush types.

The average floral composition of the desert areas studied was about 74 percent browse, 25 percent grass, and 1 percent forbs. However, on some areas there was more grass than browse and, on still others, large quantities of forbs were present, primarily Russian-thistle.

Digestion trials were carried out under normal …

Modern Home Sewing, Anna D. Walker

Never before in the history of fabrics has there been such an array of exciting materials to tempt the home sewer to try her skill in clothing construction. Old friends in the textile field are taking on new .finishes and new fibers have ·entered into the fabric picture-all calling for new knowledge in their handling during construction. In addition to this abundance of textile material from which to choose, there is the splendid selection of good patterns, notions, and sewing equipment which is available today. A new style consciousness has swept the country and the modern home sewer is no …
