Jean Charles De Pradel In French Colonial Louisiana, 1714-1764, Patricia Dillon Woods Dec 1972

Jean Charles De Pradel In French Colonial Louisiana, 1714-1764, Patricia Dillon Woods

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Jean Charles de Pradel, a younger son of a provincial robe family of Limousin, France, resided in Louisiana for most of the period the colony was under French control. De Pradel's initial encounter with Louisiana was in 1714 when he was assigned to the colony on his first tour of duty in the military. At that time, Louisiana was struggling for its existence against the natural enemies of disease, famine and starvation as well as against the growing threats of conflict with the Spanish in near-by Pensacola and from the English to the north. This colony on the Mississippi offered …

Enhancement Of Progressive‐Ratio Performance By Chlordiazepoxide And Phenobarbital, Donald M. Thompson Jan 1972

Enhancement Of Progressive‐Ratio Performance By Chlordiazepoxide And Phenobarbital, Donald M. Thompson

Faculty Publications

The key pecking of two pigeons was reinforced with food on a progressive‐ratio schedule, which required an increasing number of responses for each successive reinforcement: 8, 16, 24, 32, etc. When the subject failed to complete the next ratio in the sequence within 60 min, the session terminated. The number of responses in the final completed ratio was defined as the “breaking point”. After the breaking point had stabilized (60 sessions), it served as a baseline to assess the effects of varying doses (5 to 80 mg/kg) of chlordiazepoxide and phenobarbital, administered intramuscularly 30 min before the sessions. Both drugs …


Relationship Of Blood Serum Protein And Protein Fractions To Milk Constituents And Temperature-Season, J. D. Roussel, K. L. Koonce, M. A. Pinero Jan 1972

Relationship Of Blood Serum Protein And Protein Fractions To Milk Constituents And Temperature-Season, J. D. Roussel, K. L. Koonce, M. A. Pinero

Faculty Publications

Blood serum protein and protein fractions were determined in 265 samples from 62 lactating Holstein cows over one calendar year. Temperature-seasonal changes (cool, optimum, hot) were responsible for significant linear and quadratic fluctuation in serum protein fractions. Serum albumin, β-globulin, α2- globulin, and the A:G ratio significantly decreased as seasons progressed from cool to hot. Further, globulin and γ-globulin both increased significantly from cool to hot seasons. An a1bumin:globulin ratio (.56:1) was inverted. Milk fat percentage was positively correlated with serum albumin percentage and a1bumin:globulin ratio and negatively correlated with total serum protein, and serum globulin and γ-globulin percentages. No …


Performance Of Holstein And Crossbred Dairy Cattle In Louisiana. Ii. Growth Rate Through First Lactation, B. F. Hollon, C. Branton, K. L. Koonce Jan 1972

Performance Of Holstein And Crossbred Dairy Cattle In Louisiana. Ii. Growth Rate Through First Lactation, B. F. Hollon, C. Branton, K. L. Koonce

Faculty Publications

Body weights of four groups consisting of 355 crosses among the Brown Swiss, Holstein, Jersey, and Red Sindhi breeds were compared to those of 127 contemporary Holsteins at six ages: birth, 6, 12, 15, and 18 months and in first lactation. Least-squares analyses were used to estimate effects of breed groups, year of birth, proportion of Red Sindhi heredity, and breed by year interactions. Year of birth had a significant (P < .01) influence on body weight, but this was not consistent with respect to breed groups. Purebred Holsteins were larger (P < ,01) than crossbreds at all ages. Among the crossbred groups, Holstein-sired crosses averaged 3% below Holsteins in body weight at the different ages whereas Brown Swiss-sired crosses and two groups of daughters by crossbred sires (one group by Zebu × European crossbred bulls, another by European × European crossbred bulls) ranged from 4 to 17% below Holsteins. Crosses by purebred sires were larger than those by crossbred sires, with the differences in body weight significant (P < .05 or P < .01) at all ages except 6 months. The magnitude of differences was greater after 12 months of age and was probably influenced by a larger proportion of Jersey and Red Sindhi heredity among daughters of crossbred sires. Significant negative linear responses (P < .05 or P < .01) due to proportion of Red Sindhi heredity (1/4 to 1/8, 1/8 to 1/16, 1/16 to 0 and 0) were noted for birth weight, 6 and 18 months and first lactation. The effect of Red Sindhi heredity on body weight appeared to be of an additive genetic nature since body weights increased as the proportion of Red Sindhi breeding decreased. © 1972, American Dairy Science Association.

Stochastic Integrals In Abstract Wiener Space, Hui Hsiung Kuo Jan 1972

Stochastic Integrals In Abstract Wiener Space, Hui Hsiung Kuo

Faculty Publications

Let W(t, ω) be the Wiener process on an abstract Wiener space (i, H, B) corresponding to the canonical normal distributions on H. Stochastic integrals (formula presented) and (formula presented) are defined for non-anticipating transformations f with values in B(B, B) such that (x(t, ω) — I)(B) B* and C with values in H. Suppose (formula presented), where u is a non-anticipating transformation with values in H. Let fit, x be a continuous function on R x B, continuously twice differentiable in the indirections with D2 f(t, x) e H) for the x variable and once differentiable for the t …
