Range Shelters, Feeders, Waterers For Poultry, J. Ervin Boyd, Merle Esmay

SDSU Extension Circulars

No Substitute for Sunshine and Plenty of Green Fern There are probably no adequate substitutes for sunshine and succulent green feed for reducing the costs of feeding, keeping poultry in good health, promoting proper growth of bone and feather and developing good pullets for laying. Grasses and legumes in the early stages of growth contain relatively much more protein than in the later stages of growth. They are also rich in vitamins and will tend to balance and correct the deficiencies of proteins in the cereal grains fed to poultry. (See more in text.)

Controlling Internal Parasites Of Sheep, G. S. Harshfield, F. N. Carlson

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

Parasitism is the worst hazard in the raising of sheep. This is true in South Dakota and is generally true in other sheep-raising areas. No accurate figure of the cost of worm infestations can be given. The cost includes the loss in deaths, the lowered values of the unthrifty, light-weight lambs which survive, the added expense in feed and time in making such lambs salable, the cost of worm treatments and time in administering them. To these costs should be added the weight loss by sheep, resulting from moving them from range for treatments, and the handling of the flock …

Killing Weeds With 2, 4-D, South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station

Agricultural Experiment Station Agronomy Pamphlets (1944-1969)

The information in this pamphlet is based on the results of the cooperative tests in South Dakota and from summarized results of tests in other areas. Experiments have been conducted during the past year by the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station cooperating with the United States Department of Agriculture. Twenty experimental plots were established to learn how effective the 2, 4-D sprays are as weed killers. 2, 4-D was tested in comparison with the proven chemical weed killers, sodium chlorate, Atlacide and borax. Creeping jenny, leafy spurge, perennial sow thistle, Canada thistle, and other weeds were included in the tests.

A Discussion Of Ddt Through Questions And Answers, H.C. Severin

Agricultural Experiment Station Entomology Pamphlets (1940-1952)

DDT received and is still receiving more publicity than any insecticide ever enjoyed in the history of man's war with insects. Newspapers, farm journals, cattle magazines, horticultural publications, women's magazines, the radio, motion pictures and every other conceivable means of advertising have lauded DDT to the skies. Much of this publicity was released v1hile DDT was still not available to the civilian but only to our Armed Forces. This avalanche of publicity created hundreds of thousands of potential buyers, many of whom began to clamor for the new marvelous insecticide. Press releases were then made from the State Experiment Stations …

Christmas For '45, Florence Mclaron

SDSU Extension Circulars

Christmas will be here sooner than you think! Soon enough, anyway to start thinking now about packing Santa's sack. All of which leads up to the suggestion of cutting down on the wear and tear of the annual Christmas shopping rush. Why not try your hand at a little home-made handiwork? Yield to that creative urge and give the tiny tots a break-instead of something to break, which is too often the result of a trip to town. Simple blocks and boxes, stick horses, chairs, and dolls are the kind of toys that please the kiddies. Children like toys that …

An Appraisal Of South Dakota Production Adjustments In Agriculture 1946 & Post-War, Agricultural Experiment Station, South Dakota State College

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

This report represents one in a series of Wartime studies of agricultural adjustments in South Dakota to meet changing demand conditions. The general purpose of the study is to indicate some of the changes that have taken place during the present war period and to estimate desirable crop end livestock adjustments for1946 and the post-war period. This project is a part of the year-to-year national study of production adjustments in which all states are cooperating with the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, United States Department of Agriculture.

Facts For Prospective Farmers And Ranchers In South Dakota, C. R. Hoglund

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

South Dakota farming varies from the most intensive corn belt type of farming in the southeastern part to the most extensive ranching type in the northwestern part of the state. Irrigation farming is found to a limited extent in the western part. These extreme variations in types of farming have been greatly influenced by such factors as rainfall, length of growing season, topography and soils. The long-time average rainfall varies from somewhat over 25 inches in the southeastern part to under 14 inches in the northwestern part of South Dakota. About two-thirds of the precipitation falls during the growing season. …

How And Why Of 4-H Club Demonstrations, Vivian Verry

SDSU Extension Circulars

Have you ever shown someone how to make a whistle, play a game, make a rope, tie a knot or can some food? If you have done any of these or similar things, then you have given a demonstration, because a demonstration is a method of "showing by doing" and at the same time telling how the process is done. It is one of the best methods of teaching and learning.

Selenium In Glacial And Associated Deposits, Walter V. Searight, Alvin L. Moxon

Agricultural Experiment Station Technical Bulletins (1939-2011)

The element selenium has been found to be the cause livestock and poultry poisioning in several Great Plains states, including South Dakota. The occurrence of the element has been recently noted in wheat grown on soils derived from glacial materials in Saskatchewan. Analyses of plants from glaciated areas in Montana, North Dakota, and Canada indicate the occurrence of selenium in noteworthy amounts in glacial deposits and in soils derived from them. Laboratory studies of glacial and associated materials, soils derived from them, and the indicator plant Astragalus racemosus were made to determine the amounts of selenium present. In order to …

Ree Wheatgrass: Its Culture And Use, C. J. Franzke

Agricultural Experiment Station Circulars (1920-1915)

Ree wheatgrass, Agropyron intermedium and A. trichophorum, is a new pasture and hay grass released by the South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station. It is closely related botanically to slender wheatgrass, Agropyron trachycaulum, and western wheatgrass, Agropyron smithii, both native to South Dakota and crested wheatgrass, Agropyron cristatum, native to the cold, dry plains of Russia and Siberia.
