Economic Opportunities Available To Farmers On 160-Acre Farms In Southeastern South Dakota, Leonard R. Benning Jul 1959

Economic Opportunities Available To Farmers On 160-Acre Farms In Southeastern South Dakota, Leonard R. Benning

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

How can farm income be increased on 160-acre farms in south-eastern South Dakota? This question has been asked by many farmers who are trying to determine the most profitable cropping and livestock systems. The most profitable farm organization depends on how well the farmer selects his farm enterprises and combines the use of his land, labor, capital, and management. The major problem of the farm manager is selecting the enterprises in combination with available resources that will result in the greatest continuous earnings over a period of years. There is no one combination of cropping and livestock system which is …

Parasites Of Fishes In South Dakota, E. J. Hugghins Jul 1959

Parasites Of Fishes In South Dakota, E. J. Hugghins

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

This study constitutes the first extensive investigation of the parasites of fishes in South Dakota. Previously, little technical information was available concerning the incidence and distribution of fish parasites in the state. The survey for the study involved the various kinds of parasitic worms (flukes, tapeworms, roundworms, spiny-headed worms, leeches) and the parasitic crustaceans (fish lice).
More than 500 fishes were examined from 33 different bodies of water, largely lakes. This gave a general idea as to the more prevalent worm and arthropod parasites, as well as records of some less common parasites. Undoubtedly many parasites have been missed, but …

Sheep Production Guide, James J. O'Connell Jun 1959

Sheep Production Guide, James J. O'Connell

SDSU Extension Circulars

Sheep production in South Dakota offers farmers an additional means of stabilizing their income and production. The two cash crops per year, wool and lambs, have always been popular. With the necessity of planting more grasses and legumes to conserve our land, the need of putting more emphasis on roughage-consuming animals is evident. During World War II the sheep numbers in the United States declined about 40 percent from their high peak of 1942. However, since the United States produces only a fraction of the wool that this country consumes, and with sheep numbers likely to stay below the peak …

Salinity And Livestock Water Quality, L. B. Embry, M. A. Hoelscher, R. C. Wahlstrom, C. W. Carlson Jun 1959

Salinity And Livestock Water Quality, L. B. Embry, M. A. Hoelscher, R. C. Wahlstrom, C. W. Carlson

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Experiments with albino rates were undertaken preliminary to work with large animals. The purpose here was two-fold: (1) to compare several kinds of salts and get some idea of their relative toxicities; and (2) to establish what concentrations of salts would be best used in experimental work with large animals.

Antibacterial And Antifungal Agents In Diets For Laying And Breeding Hens, C.W. Carlson May 1959

Antibacterial And Antifungal Agents In Diets For Laying And Breeding Hens, C.W. Carlson

Agricultural Experiment Station Technical Bulletins (1939-2011)

In general, the use of arsenic acids (arsanilic acid and 3-nitro 4 hydroxyphenylarsonic) in the diets of laying hens has been observed as a slight increased rate of egg production or improved feed efficiency. However, detrimental effects can be observed with each of the arsenic acids when fed in exceptionally high energy diets. But on average, a 3% improvement in egg production has been observed. Data obtained over the past 2 years at this laboratory with the use of several antibiotics including penicillin, oleandomycin, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, and streptomycin plus arsanilic acid, the nitrofurans (furazolidone and nitrofurazone) and nystatin in diets …

Studies On Control Of Fowl Cholera, T.A. Dorsey, G.S. Harshfield May 1959

Studies On Control Of Fowl Cholera, T.A. Dorsey, G.S. Harshfield

Agricultural Experiment Station Technical Bulletins (1939-2011)

Fowl cholera is a contagious disease of domestic fowls and many wild birds caused by a bacterium, Pasteurella multocida. It is one of the oldest known infectious diseases of poultry. In South Dakota, fowl cholera has been a poultry disease of major importance for many years. Experimental work was undertaken at this station in 1944 to study fowl cholera as related to this area and to investigate the development or improvement of control measures to more effectively prevent losses from this disease. This bulletin is a report of that work.

Vertical Integration And The South Dakota Farmer, Lyle M. Bender, Arthur W. Anderson, Leonard Benning May 1959

Vertical Integration And The South Dakota Farmer, Lyle M. Bender, Arthur W. Anderson, Leonard Benning

SDSU Extension Circulars

Agriculture is undergoing some vast structural changes. These changes can be most readily seen in the way our methods of production and marketing are being organized, and in the tools with which we work. Technology has given us new or improved machines and equipment, improved crop varieties and livestock, and new or improved feeds and other farm production items. Most of this new technology in agriculture has increased production, saved labor, and increased the use of capital. The organizational revolution, which is now receiving most attention, involves farms as production and marketing units, and non-farm business units supplying production items …

Alfalfa Silage Effect Of Storage Methods On Feeding Value And On Preservation Of Nutrients, W. C. Mccone, O. E. Olson May 1959

Alfalfa Silage Effect Of Storage Methods On Feeding Value And On Preservation Of Nutrients, W. C. Mccone, O. E. Olson

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Feeding trials using beef cattle were conducted with baled alfalfa hay and with alfalfa silage stored in the stack, trench, and upright silo.
Based upon feed costs at the time of storage, the average feed costs per 100 pounds of gain for the several experiments were as follows: baled hay, $18.70; upright silo, $22.35; trench silo, $30.58; and stack silo, $33.58. The greatly increased costs in the case of the trench and stack were the result of excessive fermentation and spoilage losses because air was not properly excluded.
The chemical composition of the dry matter of the various silages was …

Rammed Earth Walls, H. H. Delong Apr 1959

Rammed Earth Walls, H. H. Delong

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

Rammed earth construction, as a building process, dates far back into history. The knowledge of how to build with this material was brought to America from Europe. There are records of homes and churches in the eastern United States which were built of rammed earth and have stood for more than 100 years. Rammed earth construction is usually associated with a "build it yourself" program of construction in which earth, the building material, costs nothing, and in which the owner provides much of the labor of construction. Led by the Department of Agriculture, many of the state agricultural experiment stations …

Summary Of Research On Diethlstilbestrol For Growing And Fattening Beef Cattle, D.V. Radabaugh, L.B. Embry Apr 1959

Summary Of Research On Diethlstilbestrol For Growing And Fattening Beef Cattle, D.V. Radabaugh, L.B. Embry

Agricultural Experiment Station Animal Husbandry Pamphlets

Numerous experiments on the response of growing and fattening cattle to stilbestrol have been reported in recent years. There has been a response to stilbestrol in most of these experiments, though to varying degrees. Many of the reports have been of a preliminary nature and in several instances have covered only one trial. A review of such experiments individually does not present a clear and concise picture of the effects of stilbestrol treatment. Therefore, results of most of the reported experiments have been reviewed and are summarized in the tables in this pamphlet. Four rather distinct phases of cattle feeding …

Diethylstilbestrol For Wintering, Pasturing And Fattening Beef Cattle, D. V. Radabaugh, L. B. Embry Apr 1959

Diethylstilbestrol For Wintering, Pasturing And Fattening Beef Cattle, D. V. Radabaugh, L. B. Embry

Research Bulletins of the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (1887-2011)

Since the approval of stilbestrol for cattle feeding, numerous experiments have been conducted to determine its value with various rations and feeding systems. Several questions have been raised. What are the effects of stilbestrol over a long period of time? What effects will stilbestrol administration during the pasture season have on later feed-lot performance when stilbestrol is given again? How long are implants effective? What are the comparative effects of implants and feeding stilbestrol under various feeding systems and the effects of the two methods of administration on carcass grade and carcass characteristics?
These are important questions and present research …
