Stamp Out Chickweed And Henbit From Alfalfa, J. W. Herron, Warren C. Thompson

Agronomy Notes

What are chickweed and henbit?

Chickweed and henbit are winter annual weeds that grow during cool weather. The seeds germinate primarily in the fall, and the plants continue to grow and live through the winter. They develop new seeds from April until early summer. Then they die.

Finely Ground Agricultural Limestone Is Available, George D. Corder

Agronomy Notes

Kentucky farmers can purchase a more finely ground limestone than they could 1 year ago.

The Department of Agronomy, Agricultural Experiment Station, University of Kentucky, recommends that agricultural limestone be ground fine enough that at least 45 percent will pass through a 50-mesh screen. This is equivalent to the old recommendation that at least 40 percent pass through a 60-mesh screen.

Class I Bituminous Mixtures, Robert L. Florence

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The attached report reflects the degree of excellence sought in bituminous concrete pavements in Kentucky during the past several years. In the evolvement of the present state of the art, idealized concepts of mixture design have been dutifully tempered with practical considerations, experience factors, and performance features which may not be altogether apparent from this report alone. In substance, the study has been concerned with aggregate gradations, construction operations, and quality of the pavement surface. The achievement of gradation control in the dust of filler sizes has provided opportunities to further optimize mixture requirements. Permissive blending of sands has enabled …

Interim Performance Report Experimental Use Of Thermoplastic Pavement-Striping Materials, John W. Scott

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The purposes and objectives of this study are: 1) to evaluate the application and performance characteristics of hot-melt plastic, pavement-striping materials which are presently prominent and known commercially as "Catatherm" and "Perma-Line"; 2) to compare the performance of these materials with the performance of painted stripes applied and renewed according to the current practices of the Kentucky Department of Highways; and 3) to evaluate the economics of these striping materials in terms of cost per mile per day of useful life. The project is described more fully in the "Proposal ... " (approved by Division Engineer, September 7, 1962) and …

Stability Analyses Of Earth Masses, Robert C. Deen, Gordon D. Scott, W. W. Mcgraw

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

During the past few months (January, 1966, to the present) the Division of Research has been called upon to make site investigations and analyses of foundation and slope stability at several locations in the State. These requests have emanated from various offices and divisions of the Department. Some of these investigations involved considerable effort and time to perform the subsurface exploration and to analyze the problem so that recommendations could be made. These investigations were of significant magnitude and are being summarized in this report.

Engineering Properties Of Kentucky Soils, Robert C. Deen

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Soils maps, and particularly engineering soil maps, are proving to be desirable in the planning and design stages of many types of structures and land developments. Engineers and community planners, and even administrators, are becoming increasingly appreciative of such information during the very earliest stages of planning and site selection. Problems associated with foundations, drainage, and soil behavior may be recognized early through the use of adequate soil maps.

At present there is no single source of information which presents the engineering characteristics of the soils of Kentucky. When such information is desired, detailed onsite investigations are made. When such …

The University And The Liberty Of Its Students -- A Fiduciary Theory, Alvin L. Goldman

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

The disciplinary power of a university is a force which every student has cause to fear. The exercise, or threat of exercise, of a school’s disciplinary power is felt in every area of campus life. Invocation of disciplinary sanctions against a student whose personal conduct or attitudes contravene standards dear to the school authorities has occurred in such ludicrous cases as the failure of a co-ed to be a “typical Syracuse girl.” In another case, a student was expelled because she refused to pay purported debts which she asserted were properly her husband’s obligations. As insidious as it may be …

Experimental Concrete Pavement Containing Fly-Ash Admixtures [July 1966], Ronald D. Hughes

The attached report summarily presents records of the construction and performance of a portland cement concrete pavement containing fly-ash as an admixture.

Summer Annual Grasses - Kentucky, W. H. Stroube

Agronomy Notes

During the summer of 1965 , several varieties of summer annual grasses were seeded at the rate of 10-12 pounds per acre, in rows 3 feet apart, at the Woodford County Farm and at the Western Kentucky Substation. These varieties were replicated four times and harvested three times at each location. Harvest data are reported in the attached table. It should be noted that data from Woodford county are reported in dry matter per acre and that from Princeton in air-dry forage. Previous studies have indicated that yield data from 3-foot rows of this type of material should be multiplied …

Kentucky Rock Asphalt Bases And Hot-Mix Surfaces; Experimental Construction, Robert L. Florence

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The objectives of this study are disposed toward the development of Kentucky Rock Asphalt for use as a traffic-bound base and surface on rural roads near its source and toward re-development of the material for use as hot-mixed, hot-laid, skid-resistant surface course for higher echelon roads. The material is a natural asphaltic-sandstone which occurs in considerable abundance in Edmonson County and in other outcrops of Pottsville sandstones bordering the eastern rim of the Western Kentucky Coal Fields. From 1900 until the 1950's, rock-asphalt was used extensively in Kentucky and elsewhere for road surfacing and was regarded widely as a premium-grade …

A General Survey Of Highway Construction Materials: Jackson Purchase Region, Robert C. Deen, James H. Havens

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Much information and insight concerning the engineering behavior and characteristics of soils and geologic materials can be obtained by a review of geologic and soil reports available in the literature. This knowledge concerning the engineering behavior of these materials can be quite useful to the design and construction engineers as they proceed with their endeavors with respect to civil engineering structures such as highways. Much of this general and preliminary information is available to the public in the form of county soil survey reports that have been published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and geologic quadrangle maps that have …

Zinc Deficiency In Corn, Harold Miller, Shirley Phillips

Agronomy Notes

Status of Zinc Deficiency

Corn is the only field crop presently grown in Kentucky that has shown zinc-deficiency symptoms and that has definitely given a response to zinc applications. Isolated instances of zinc deficiency have been reported from nearly every area of the state. However, the difficulty appears to be more prevalent in soils of the central Bluegrass and the western Pennyrile regions.

Considerable variation in respect to zinc deficiency has occurred within these regions, characterized by no consistent pattern. Corn producers in these areas particularly should watch this crop closely for deficiency symptoms during the period 4 to 6 …

What Is Good Agricultural Limestone?, George D. Corder

Agronomy Notes

During the 10-year period, 1955- 64, Kentucky farmers used more than 14 million tons of agricultural limestone. The investment in the limestone plus hauling and spreading was in the neighborhood of $45 million. In 1964 alone. Kentucky farmers invested about $7 million in about 2 million tons of limestone.

Economic Analysis Of Alternative Flood Control Measures By Digital Computer, Thomas M. Rachford

KWRRI Research Reports

The purpose of this project was to develop a digital computer program for selecting the optimum combination of flood proofing, flood-plain land use, channel improvement, and residual flood damage for a given floodplain. Based on economic efficiency, the optimum policy is selected for each planning unit of the total flood-plain for each period of time called a planning stage. The program was written in Fortran IV for the IBM 7040 and the University of Kentucky Computing Center compiler. The program requires about 23,000 words of core storage and about 30 seconds of execution time per planning-unit-stage for typical conditions. The …
