Bulletin No. 112 - A Report Of Seven Years' Investigation Of Dry Farming Methods, Lewis A. Merrill

UAES Bulletins

The permanent settlement of Utah was made possible because of the introduction of irrigation methods but the growing of crops without irrigation was successfully practiced soon after the settlement of the territory. From the existing records and from the words of many of the veterans still living it is evident that many attempts were made to grow wheat in the early 50's without irrigation. Most of these attempts failed, because they were made on irrigated lands. In 1865, however, an experiment on a much more extended scale was made.

New Studies Of The Arrhenuri, Ruth Marshall

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

Since the publication of "The Arrhenuri of the United States," in 198, the author has been fortunate enough to secure enough more material to justify the publication of a supplementary paper on this large genus of water-mites. This material consists of collections from new localities in the United States, and of additional material from old collecting grounds, together with a few specimens from other countries. The author's own collections were made in Wisconsin and Illinois. A few new places were visited, as the lakes about Milwaukee ; and more extensive collections were made in previously known bodies of water, as …

Bulletin No. 110 - The Alfalfa Leaf-Weevil, E. G. Titus

UAES Bulletins

The alfalfa leaf-weevil (Phytonomus murinus Fab.) which has during the last three years been doing considerable damage in the central part of this State, is a European insect which by some means unknown has been introduced in to Utah. The species appears to be not uncommon throughout Europe and parts of Asia and Africa. It belongs to the large order of hard-shelled insects called beetles (Coleoptera) and in a group generally called snout-beetles (Family Curculionidae). To this same group belong many of our most serious pests, such as the plum curculio, cotton boll-weevil and strawberry weevil.

It occurs over all …

Bulletin No. 108 - The Effect Of Formalin On The Vitality Of Seed Grain, Robert Stewart, John Stephens

UAES Bulletins

The Utah Experiment Station for a number of years has recommended the formalin treatment for the prevention of smut in wheat, oats and barley. Since the publication of Bulletin No. 84 by Prof. L. A. Merrill on the Subject, a number of complaints regarding the treatment have been received. We learned, also, by traveling over the state, that these complaints were quite general. The work reported in this bulletin was undertaken for the purpose of throwing light on these questions, and it is hoped that the results obtained will be of value to the farmers of the state.

Testing Seed Corn, E. G. Montgomery, C. W. Pugsley

University of Nebraska Historical Extension: Bulletin

Testing every ear of seed corn will cost about 5 to 10 cents per acre, and may mean 5 to 10 bushels per acre increased yield. Do it now before the rush of farm work. In many parts of the state not one-half the seed corn will grow. Reports from Farmers' Institutes in various sections indicate that the vitality is very low.
