The Magnesium Content Of The Rocks Of The Upper Cretaceous System Of Ellis And Osborne Counties, Kansas, Robert Funston Jul 1941

The Magnesium Content Of The Rocks Of The Upper Cretaceous System Of Ellis And Osborne Counties, Kansas, Robert Funston

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The recent impetus given industry by the national defense emergency has made everyone more or less conscious of the great importance of minerals. During the past few years some of the industrial leaders of Kansas have been attempting to promote the natural resources of the state. Some minerals once considered of little or no value are now being developed. For many years the limestone rocks of Western Kansas have been used for building purposes. Until recently little work has been done on the chemical composition of these rocks. The author has decided to continue the study by analyzing the rocks …

Cambrian Stratigraphy In The Northern Wasatch Region, George Burke Maxey May 1941

Cambrian Stratigraphy In The Northern Wasatch Region, George Burke Maxey

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

An exhaustive field study of the Cambrian stratigraphy of the northern Wasatch region indicates that in addition to the Blacksmith Fork section there are two complete and better exposed middle and upper sections. Several other good exposures of the lower Middle Cambrian section have been studied in detail. The Spence shale is found to be a member low in the Langston, not the basal member of the Ute. Relative ages of the Spence shale and Ptarmigania faunas have been determined. Other Cambrian faunal zones have been discovered and are discussed. Paleontologic evidence suggests that the Nounan formation is of Upper …

The Pipy Concretions Of The Arikaree, C. Bertrand Schultz Jan 1941

The Pipy Concretions Of The Arikaree, C. Bertrand Schultz

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

The pipy concretions of the Arikaree (lower Miocene) of Nebraska and adjacent states were first described by Nelson Horatio Darton (1899, p. 743) as "characteristic layers of hard, fine-grained, dark-gray concretions, often consisting of aggregations of long, irregular, cylindrical masses" (see Figures 30, 32, 34, and 35). The individual pipes vary in diameter from a few inches to several feet, and in length from a few inches to a hundred yards or more. Tests demonstrate that pipy concretions are composed of sand cemented by calcium carbonate. When dipped in acid the cement is dissolved and the concretion is reduced to …

The Unit Plan Versus The Textbook Plan Of Teaching Arithmetic To Seventh And Eighth Grade Pupils, Arthur P. Harvey Jul 1940

The Unit Plan Versus The Textbook Plan Of Teaching Arithmetic To Seventh And Eighth Grade Pupils, Arthur P. Harvey

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The present day trends in education seem to indicate the desirability of its becoming more and more a socialized education. This trend will no doubt have a more significant bearing on some subjects or studies in the school curriculum than on other subjects. The Kansas public elementary schools have recently adopted a Unit Program in School Studies, which includes history, civics, geography, science, and hygiene in an attempt to contribute better to the socialized idea. This Unit Program, however, does not make direct provision for English, spelling, arithmetic, and penmanship .Naturally, perhaps, comes the question to many teachers of why …

Remedial Work On The Division Of Decimals, M. Thomasine Schwind Jul 1939

Remedial Work On The Division Of Decimals, M. Thomasine Schwind

Bachelors’ Theses

The important element in remedial strategy is the reduction of the necessity for it. Prevent more, so as to have to cure less! In all learning and especially in the processes of arithmetic, our attack must be based upon a four-fold basis. Each is affected by the other three. Initial learning, maintenance, measurement and remedial work are the four components of efficiency. before remedial work can be carried out efficient testing must be done.

The Lime Content Of Rocks Of The Upper Cretaceous System Of Osborne County, Kansas, Herman D. Search Jan 1939

The Lime Content Of Rocks Of The Upper Cretaceous System Of Osborne County, Kansas, Herman D. Search

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

This report is the result of several weeks of intensive study and investigation in the field and in the laboratory. In making this study of the rocks of Osborne County, Kansas, the writer is concerned chiefly with the chemistry of the rooks rather than with their geological formation. He has not attempted to make a complete analysis of the rocks, but has limited his investigation in order to determine certain facts concerning their line content. He has attempted to determine the consistency of the percentage of lime in a given member in various parts of the county and also of …

Underground Stratigraphy Of Montana, Virgil R. Chamberlain Jun 1938

Underground Stratigraphy Of Montana, Virgil R. Chamberlain

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this thesis is to study the subsurface stratigraphy of the state of Montana from information acquired from well logs, composite logs, and measured sections. Underground stratigraphy is important for the intelligent prospecting for oil, gas, or water. A knowledge of the strata beneath us can be gathered only by measurements of numerous outcrops or by deep drilling with careful sampling or logging of the formations passed through.


The Jefferson Canyon Gypsum Deposit., Arthur Talpt Jun 1938

The Jefferson Canyon Gypsum Deposit., Arthur Talpt

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Gypsum deposits are widespread geographically and are in many geo­logic formations. Ordinarily their character and origin, for the most part sedimentary, are not difficult to ascertain. Near Lewis and Clark Caverns, east of Whitehall, Montana, occurs a deposit of gypsum unique in many re­spects.

The Paleozoic Stratigraphy Of Lorain County, Ohio, Edwin Hugo Wenberg Jan 1938

The Paleozoic Stratigraphy Of Lorain County, Ohio, Edwin Hugo Wenberg

Honors Papers

During the course of the school year 1936-37 spent at Oberlin, which is situated near the center of Lorain County, Ohio, the writer had the opportunity to study the outcrops and to gather records of wells in this area.

A study of the strata of this county is confusing because the same rocks have been described under different formational names. Originally many of these strata were traced northward from type sections in central Ohio or westward from type sections near Cleveland. At a later date many of the strata were reclassified and assigned to formations which had been traced westward …


Geology And Ground-Water Resources Of South-Central Nebraska. With Special Reference To The Platte River Valley Between Chapman And Gothenburg, Alvin Leonard Lugn, L. K. Wenzel Jan 1938

Geology And Ground-Water Resources Of South-Central Nebraska. With Special Reference To The Platte River Valley Between Chapman And Gothenburg, Alvin Leonard Lugn, L. K. Wenzel

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

The investigation here reported, which covered a period of about 5 years, 1929 to 1933, was made for the purpose of determining the available supply of ground water in south-central Nebraska, the origin and discharge of the ground water, and the relation of the geologic and ground-water conditions in the Platte River Valley to the conditions occurring under the plains to the south. The area was found to be underlain by permeable Pleistocene and Tertiary sand .and gravel, much of which is saturated and yields relatively large quantities of water to wells. Except in a few isolated places the ground-water …
