The Kitchen, Mary A. Dolve Jan 1922

The Kitchen, Mary A. Dolve

SDSU Extension Circulars

The kitchen can well be called the work shop of the home for a very large part of the home maker’s time an energy is spent doing the work in the kitchen. Sometimes we loose sight of the fact that much of what seems drudgery is to a great extent due to gloomy and inconvenient surroundings; that a room with a drab or dark blue walls create drab and blue thoughts, that sunny and cheerful room will do much to keep the worker happy and contented.

Child's Made-Over Dress, Azalea Linfield Jan 1922

Child's Made-Over Dress, Azalea Linfield

SDSU Extension Circulars

Many worn garments may be renovated and remodeled into useful clothes for the younger members of the family. There are more possibilities in making over clothing for children than for adults, because smaller amounts of material are necessary. Materials that are too old in weave, color, or figure should not be used unless this fault can be disguised. Sometimes the addition of contrasting color will solve this problem.

Clothing Budgets, Azalea Linfield

SDSU Extension Circulars

The most satisfactory club work has been that which has best met the needs of club members. It is recommended that club members decide what they would like to make during the club year after they have made an inventory of their wardrobes and discovered for themselves, what they really need most. The following outline has been used to advantage by club members.


Textile Study : Cotton, Azalea Linfield Jan 1922

Textile Study : Cotton, Azalea Linfield

SDSU Extension Circulars

The vegetable fiber cotton is of more value to mankind than any one of the other textile fibers, on account of its cheapness, its availability, and its varied, usefulness. The materials made from it range from the finest threads, mulls and laces, to heavy blankets and sail cloths. Its value is enhanced by its resemblance, after special treatment to linen, wool, or silk, by which warmth and attractive appearance may be gained at small cost. The supply of cotton usually equals the demand, so that the finished product may be put on the market at reasonable prices.


Textile Study : Wool, Azalea Linfield Jan 1922

Textile Study : Wool, Azalea Linfield

SDSU Extension Circulars

Materials made from woolen and worsted yarns are among our most useful and valued textiles. The raw material is procured form the fleeces of the various breeds of sheeps, goats, and other animals living in all parts of the world. The clothes made from this wool or hair vary greatly, as the fiber ranges from the short staple, soft, crumpy, dull merino wool to the long, silky, lustrous wool of the Leicester sheep of England, the glossy hair of the Angora goat of Constantinople, or the long, coarse hair of the Chinese sheep. The length of the staple varies from …


Textile Study : Linen, South Dakota State College And U.S. Department Of Agriculture Cooperating Jan 1922

Textile Study : Linen, South Dakota State College And U.S. Department Of Agriculture Cooperating

SDSU Extension Circulars

Linen has been called the textile of luxury as its expense in fine grades stands in the way of its common use. In olden times it supplied many of the family needs but in the present day cotton has largely supplanted it for common uses. Linen is made from the long, lustrous fiber obtained from the stock of the flax plant grown in European countries and to some extent in America. (See more in text.)


Textile Study : Silk, Azalea Linfield Jan 1922

Textile Study : Silk, Azalea Linfield

SDSU Extension Circulars

The filament which is obtained from the cocoons of the cultivated silkworm makes the costliest and most beautiful textile fabric. A variety of materials are made from it, ranging from filmy chiffon and lade to the heaviest plushes and grosgrains, and from soft dull finishes to the most crisp and glossy ones. The popularity and demand for it at a low price have caused adulterations of it and substitutes of other fibers for it. Women’s lack of knowledge is a large factor in the unreliability of purchased material.

A Progress Report Of The Results Secured In Treating Pure White Pine Stands On Experimental Plots At Keene, New Hampshire., Ralph C. Hawley Jan 1922

A Progress Report Of The Results Secured In Treating Pure White Pine Stands On Experimental Plots At Keene, New Hampshire., Ralph C. Hawley

Yale School of the Environment Bulletin Series

In October, 1905, nineteen permanent sample plots were established in the white pine type near Keene, New Hampshire, by the United States Forest Service in cooperation with the Faulkner and Colony Manufacturing Company on lands owned by the latter. The plots were remeasured in 1909 and again in 1915 by representatives of the United States Forest Service. After the 1915 measurement the plots were turned over to the Yale School of Forestry. In September, 1920, the plots were remeasured for the third time, three additional plots were established and six of the original plots were discontinued. Fifteen years have elapsed …


The School Lunch Box, Mary A. Dolve Jan 1922

The School Lunch Box, Mary A. Dolve

SDSU Extension Circulars

The cold lunch at its best is not the most desirable food for taking care of the food requirements of the child, and when it is to be repeated every day of the school year is very apt to become tiresome and monotonous. The feeling that anything will do for the lunch box is altogether too prevalent. The lack of time is the most common excuse for the poorly prepared lunch box. It does not take any more time to put up wholesome lunches in an attractive way, but it does take thought and an appreciation of what the boy …


Relation Of Hardpan To Root Penetration In The Great Plains, J. E. Weaver, John Crist Jan 1922

Relation Of Hardpan To Root Penetration In The Great Plains, J. E. Weaver, John Crist

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

During the excavation of root systems of native and crop plants through- out the Great Plains region during the past five years (Weaver, 1919,1920, 1922) contact has been made in more than thirty fields with the so-called hardpan. Such a layer of soil underlies much of this area of low rainfall, at depths varying from 15 inches to 3 feet. It varies from 8 inches to over 1.5 feet in thickness. In connection with studies on the physical and chemical composition of the soils and their seasonal water-content under natural and cropped conditions, a more detailed study has been made …

Genetic Interrelations Of Two Andromonoecious Types Of Maize, Dwarf And Anther Ear, R. A. Emerson, Sterling H. Emerson Jan 1922

Genetic Interrelations Of Two Andromonoecious Types Of Maize, Dwarf And Anther Ear, R. A. Emerson, Sterling H. Emerson

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Attention was called by Montgomery (1906)to the occasional appearance

of perfect flowers in the staminate inflorescence of maize and similar

cases were reported by Kempton (1913). Montgomery (1911) described

with illustrations a true-breeding type of semi-dwarf dent maize, the ears

of which were perfect-flowered. Perfect-flowered maize was described

and illustrated also by Blaringhem (1908, pp. 180-183). East and

Hayes (1911, pp. 13, 14) noted and illustrated a perfect-flowered sweet

corn. Weatherwax (1916, 1917) showed that typically pistillate

flowers of maize exhibit in microscopic sections the rudiments of stamens

and that staminate flowers show rudiments of pistils.


The Physiology Of The Respiration Of Fishes In Relation To The Hydrogen Ion Concentration Of The Medium, Edwin B. Powers Jan 1922

The Physiology Of The Respiration Of Fishes In Relation To The Hydrogen Ion Concentration Of The Medium, Edwin B. Powers

Papers in Systematics and Biological Diversity

Within recent years much has been added to the knowledge concerning the mechanism of the respiratory function of the blood. Haldane and Priestley (1905) have shown that, at least in the higher animals, the respiratory movements are affected by the carbon dioxide tension of the arterial blood. It has been shown definitely (Hasselbalch, 1912 and citations) that the exciting agent is the hydrogen ion concentration of the blood bathing the respiratory center.

Krogh and Leitch (1919) undertook to study the respiratory function of the blood of fishes in view of the knowledge of the influence of temperature upon the dissociation …


The Flat-Headed Apple-Tree Borer, Fred E. Brooks Jan 1922

The Flat-Headed Apple-Tree Borer, Fred E. Brooks

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

The flat-headed apple-tree borer, a serious orchard pest throughout the greater part of United States, is found from the Atlantic to Pacific and from Florida and Texas to Canada.

The larva, or grub, of this insect (which in the adult stage is a medium-sized beetle) bores in the bark and wood of a great variety of trees, but is best known as an enemy of apple, pear, peach, and other cultivated fruit trees. Its depredations are felt in almost every locality where orchards have been planted.

Fortunately, this borer almost invariably confines its attacks to the sunny sides of trees …

On Eumenes Alluaudi Perez, A Precinctive Wasp Of The Seychelles (Hymenoptera), Joseph Bequaert Dec 1921

On Eumenes Alluaudi Perez, A Precinctive Wasp Of The Seychelles (Hymenoptera), Joseph Bequaert

Ba

In my Catalogue of Ethiopian Diplopterous Wasps, published in 1918, I have attempted to correlate the various described forms of African Eumenes. In many cases, where specimens were not available for study, my conclusions were based on such inferences as could be made from published accounts, and were therefore only tentative. Eumenes alluaudi J. Perez,2 for instance, I regarded at the time as one of the color variants of Eumenes lepeleterii Saussure, to which it was said to be related by the author of the species. Through the courtesy of Mr. A. S. Rohwer, I recently had opportunity to examine …


New Species And Collections Of Arrhenuri: 1921, Ruth Marshall Oct 1921

New Species And Collections Of Arrhenuri: 1921, Ruth Marshall

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

The genus Arrhenurus, the largest group of the water mites, continues to yield new material from collections in lake regions. The new species described in this paper came from regions as far apart as Canada and China; while additional notes on already described species are based on material secured in several states of northeastern United States, some of them from new localities. Through the kindness of Professor N. Gist Gee, of Soochow University, material was secured for the description of new species from China. Professor Frank Smith and Dr. H. R. Vancleave, of the University of Illinois, were good enough …
