The Effect Of Feeding Sucrose To Beef And Swine On The Percentage Of Carbohydrate, Ph, Color, Texture, And Flavor Of Muscle And Liver, Margaret B. Merkley May 1952

The Effect Of Feeding Sucrose To Beef And Swine On The Percentage Of Carbohydrate, Ph, Color, Texture, And Flavor Of Muscle And Liver, Margaret B. Merkley

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Carbohydrates have long been a part of animal feeding rations. Grains are included in all animal feeding formulas. The by-products of sugar beets have been used for many years in livestock feeding (Kutish 1950b). The use of molasses in commercial feed mixes in 1899 made possible its extended use in animal feeding practices (Hall 1950).

Protein feeds for cattle are relatively high in price and not available in adequate supply. With these facts in mind Culbertson of Iowa State College set up experiments in 1950 to find out whether part or all of the protein supplement could be replaced with …


A Management Study Of The Idaho-Utah Interstate Deer Herd With Special Reference To The Sublett, Black Pine, And East Raft River Mountain Unit, Kenneth L. Diem May 1952

A Management Study Of The Idaho-Utah Interstate Deer Herd With Special Reference To The Sublett, Black Pine, And East Raft River Mountain Unit, Kenneth L. Diem

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Extensive deer migrations have been observed for many, years in western mountain regions. More recently several complex interstate migrations have become the objects of careful study and the subjects of special wildlife movement programs. The interstate deer migrations between the Sublett-Black Pine, Idaho, areas and the East Raft River Mountain, Utah, area are not exceptional. These migrations are now of such a magnitude that they are creating management problems of increasing importance to the 2 states involved.

Electric Chick Brooding Studies, F. D. Yung, F. E. Mussehl Apr 1952

Electric Chick Brooding Studies, F. D. Yung, F. E. Mussehl

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

Perhaps one of the most valuable lessons to be learned from a study of chick brooding is that good results can often be obtained in more ways than one. In carrying on work with electric brooders at the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station, special attention has been given to such factors as insulation and to other details of design which effect economy of operation and ease of construction. Low cost rather than "cheapness" has been the ideal. The work has been cooperative between the Agricultural Engineering Department and the Poultry Husbandry Department of the University of Nebraska.


Fertilization And Improvement Of Native Subirrigated Meadows In Nebraska, P. Ehlers, G. Viehmeyer, R. Ramig, E. M. Brouse Apr 1952

Stratigraphy Of The Woodbine Formation In The Arlington Area, Tarrant County, Texas, Charles Fremont Dodge Apr 1952

Stratigraphy Of The Woodbine Formation In The Arlington Area, Tarrant County, Texas, Charles Fremont Dodge

Field and Laboratory

The Arlington area includes 70 square miles in eastern Tarrant County, Texas. It is bounded on the west by the meridian 97° 10' 00" W, on the east by the line between Tarrant and Dallas Counties, and on the north and south by the parallels 32° 47' 30" and 32" 40' 00" N. The area is drained by the Trinity River and its tributaries, which together form a dendritic pattern. Erosion by these streams has produced a submaturely to maturely dissected terrain with maximum local relief of 200 feet. The degree of dissection varies from north to south. In the …


The Wheeler Site: A 3,500 Year-Old Culture In Dallas County, Texas, Wilson W. Crook Jr. Apr 1952

The Wheeler Site: A 3,500 Year-Old Culture In Dallas County, Texas, Wilson W. Crook Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Discovery and investigation of the Wheeler site near Carrollton, Dallas County, Texas, has led to the tentative identification of a 3,500-year-old, "Little Pluvial" age, non-pottery culture in north Texas; it seemingly is a phase of a larger complex which at one time occupied the upper reaches of the Trinity River drainage and the middle area of the Brazos River, and may possibly demonstrate relationships with the "Desert Cultures" of California-Lower California to the west, vestiges of a late contact with remnants of the old Plainview-type culture, and with the eastern Archaic from the Mississippi Valley.


The Skeleton Of The Arm Of Necturus, Joseph P. Harris Jr. Apr 1952

The Skeleton Of The Arm Of Necturus, Joseph P. Harris Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Wilder's (1903) description of the skeleton of Necturus is the only one, to date, that is anywhere near complete. Other authors (Mivart, 1869; Ribbing, 1906-07; Howell, 1936; Straus, 1942) have noted portions of the arm-skeleton incidentally to describing various muscles. Chen (1935) described the embryonic development of the pectoral limb. All of these notes generally agree, except in a few details. Francis (1934) described the skeleton of Salamandra. For reasons to appear later, I adopt the terminology of Francis for the skeletal elements of the arm of Necturus.

Helminths From The Round-Tailed Muskrat, Neofiber Alleni Nigrescens Howell, With Descriptions Of Two New Species, Robert L. Rausch Apr 1952

Helminths From The Round-Tailed Muskrat, Neofiber Alleni Nigrescens Howell, With Descriptions Of Two New Species, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Two specimens of round-tailed muskrat, Neofiber alleni nigrescens Howell, were examined for helminth parasites. Four species, a trematode and three cestodes, were collected. Two of these, Quinqueserialis floridensis and Paranoplocephala neofibrinus, are described as new. Cittotaenia praecoquis Stiles, 1895, is recorded from this host, and larval cestodes are tentatively identified as Taenia lyncis Skinker, 1935.

Biology ETDs

The literature is extensive with respect to mammalism physiology, but extremely sparse concerning the reptilian physiology. According to Cook (1949) very little comprehensive work concerning the fundamental aspects of reptilian physiology has been done since Benedict's work in 1932.

Input And Output Relationships In Livestock Production, Sigurd Strangeland Mar 1952

Input And Output Relationships In Livestock Production, Sigurd Strangeland

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

What are the profitable patterns of crops and livestock for areas in Central South Dakota? This is a question that farmers in South Dakota are especially concerned with at the present time. The farmer is always faced with the problem of planning the most profitable farm organization and operation, but the problem at the present time is emphasized by the current action programs in irrigation and soil conservation which stress the need for more legumes and livestock in the farm organization. If the economist is to aid the farmer and the action programs, an insight to the question posed above …

Parents : What Are Their Responsibilities, Bertha E. Weller, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College Mar 1952

Parents : What Are Their Responsibilities, Bertha E. Weller, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

"A good parent prepares his child to walk alone." One can think a lot about that reply. It's really not too much different from saying, "We would never need to learn to walk if we were always carried, as infants are." It is a wise parent who teaches his child how to make decisions for himself. It gives him the true form of self-confidence since he is able to find his way through difficulties. Children, just like adults, grow in admiration for people who help them to discover what they can do.


4-H Project Guide : Dairy, R. A. Cave Mar 1952

4-H Project Guide : Dairy, R. A. Cave

SDSU Extension Circulars

Selecting a good dairy heifer and developing her is a fine accomplishment for any 4-H club member. Successful dairy club members are those who like their dairy heifers and are anxious to learn the best methods of feeding, training, showing and caring for them, in order to grow them into beautiful high producing cows that will return a steady income over a long period of years. Developing a good dairy heifer into a profitable, producing cow, gives the club member valuable experience and confidence in his ability to do a job well. Successful dairying requires more intelligent and careful attention …


Drill Spacing And Rate Of Seeding, I Thomas, H G. Carris Mar 1952

Drill Spacing And Rate Of Seeding, I Thomas, H G. Carris

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

During the war, when superphosphate was in exceptionally short supply,a wheatbelt farmer experimented with a method of sowing a crop in which he had blocked each alternate drill run and in effect halved the rates of seed and super used on each acre. He expressed himself satisfied with the results and has since continued to plant the major portion of his crop in this manner.


Argentine Ants Mar 1952

Argentine Ants

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

Specimens of ants submitted in February by the Rockingham Health Inspector were identified as Argentine ants, these being the first recorded from this area. Two areas of infestation are present in the Rockingham townsite—one adjacent to the hotel and the other near the Fisher Street jetty. Active steps were taken by the local authorities to bring the infestation under control.

Cobalt, L C. Snook Mar 1952

Cobalt, L C. Snook

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

Cobalt is one of the most interesting of the so-called "trace" elements. Particularly is this so to West Australians as the use of cobalt has permitted farmers to rear healthy sheep and cattle where previously this was impossible. Also, it was in this State that Filmer and Underwood carried out much of the fundamental work which led to the discovery of the vital importance of cobalt.
