The Anatomy Of The Oyster, M.J. Rohlinger

Bachelors’ Theses

The phylum Mollusca manifests the following characteristics: bilateral symmetry; three primary germ layers; free-living and sessile; marine and fresh-water; a shell modified to form either a bivalve or a univalve which gives an appearance of segmentation due to rings of growth or arrangement of certain parts of the shell as is seen in the class Amphineura, this is only apparent metamerism because the Mollusca are considered to be unsegmented animals; a coelom poorly developed; a foot; a mantle cavity; well developed digestive, circulatory, excretory, and reproductive systems. When one inspects a Chiton, an oyster, a snail, an octopus, or a …

Topographical Anatomy Of Ostrea Virginica, Harry J. Barnett

Bachelors’ Theses

The oyster is important for at least three reasons. First, it is important to the zoologist; second, it is a food which has developed million dollar enterprises; and third, the oyster is a domestic resource for the pearl and its allied industries. The oyster is a bivalve Mollusk, having symmetry in the larval stage but losing it in the adult stage. It has one large adductor muscle, somewhat posterior from the ligament which holds both valves together. The left valve forms a deeper pit than the right one as it is in the left valve that the oyster lies. It …

Bulletin No. 269 - Farm Versus Village Living In Utah, Joseph A. Geddes

UAES Bulletins

This is the second of a series of bulletins based on a study of Utah village life which was begun in 1927. The purpose of the investigation was to determine, under prevailing conditions, whether for farm people farm-living is less desirable than village-living. Four type villages were selected in as many counties for field studies.

The Effect Of Pregnancy And Parturition On The Weight Of Dairy Cows, R. F. Morgan, H. P. Davis

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

A study was made of the effect of pregnancy and parturition upon the weight cycle of dairy cows of the Ayrshire, Guernsey, Holstein, and Jersey breeds according to gestation periods from data accumulated from records for the period 1922 to 1934 of the dairy herd of the Dairy Husbandry Department of the University of Nebraska. The weights of the cows were obtained from three consecutive weighings made at the middle of each month and daily weighings beginning at the 265th day of pregnancy and continuing for 30 days after calving. A total of 656 separate gestation periods were tabulated according …

Bulletin No. 267 - Muck-Soil Management And Crop-Production Studies: Sanpete County Experimental Farm 1927 To 1933, Inclusive, Le Moyne Wilson

UAES Bulletins

The muck soil area in Sanpete County, where these investigations were conducted, comprises approximately 6500 acres, 4209 of which are included in the San Pitch Drainage District. This region is located in the south end of Sanpete Valley and west of the towns of Ephraim and Manti. During part of the year the lands involved were subject to overflow by the San Pitch River. Water covered most of the area early in the winter, and during the spring months high water kept it submerged until June. Before the neighboring communities were settled by white people, this area was probably submerged …

Bulletin No. 270 - Soil-Management And Crop-Production Studies, I. D. Zobell

UAES Bulletins

Carbon County is the greatest bituminous coal-producing district in the state and ranks as one of the largest and best in the Intermountain West. In 1934 there were twenty-six operating coal mines from which approximately 5,000,000 tons of coal were mined each year. These mines create work for hundreds of men. Many people in this section farm in the summer and mine during the winter months. In 1934 but 20,000 acres of land in this section were under cultivation, with little possibility of reclaiming additional land. Prior to 1928 crops had been somewhat restricted on account of the limited water-supply; …

Bulletin No. 268 - Alfalfa Seed Investigations And Other Crop Varietal Studies: Millard County, Utah 1929 To 1933 (Inclusive), George Whornham

UAES Bulletins

The Delta Area, in which most of the alfalfa-seed investigations and crop studies reported in this bulletin were conducted, is located in Millard County which is in the west-central part of Utah. This area lies in the Sevier Desert, within the eastern boundary of the Great Basin in the northeastern part of the county.

Parts of the area, particularly the farming sections near the towns of Oasis, Deseret, and Hinckley, have been among the oldest and most consistent alfalfa-seed producing sections of the United States. The peak of alfalfa-seed production in Millard County was reached in 1925, when approximately 14,000,000 …

Bulletin No. 265 - Phosphorus Supplements Improve Sugar-Beet By-Product Rations For Cattle, E. J. Maynard, J. E. Greaves, H. H. Smith

UAES Bulletins

In sugar-beet producing areas of the Intermountain West and Pacific Coast beet by-products constitute a most economical source of feed for fattening livestock.

In Utah there are available each year some 144,000 tons of wet beet pulp and some 20,000 tons of beet molasses; in addition, about 6500 tons of dried molasses beet pulp are available in the form of meal or pellets.

Practically all of this livestock feed supply, with a nutritive value equivalent to approximately 41,000 tons of corn or barley, has been fed, together with alfalfa hay, to cattle or sheep for maintenance or in the production …

Palaeontologic And Geologic Consideration Of Early Man In Nebraska, Erwin Hinckley Barbour, C. Bertrand Schultz

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum (1924–2023)

There has been much discussion recently relative to the geologic age of Yuma and Folsom artifacts. The writers submit the following palaeontological and geological data which may aid in a better interpretation of the subject. This paper deals with three localities in Nebraska where Yuma and Folsom implements have been found with extinct mammals; namely, the Scottsbluff Bison Quarry, the Sand Hill blow-out sites, and the Sioux County artifact sites.
