Further Studies Of Selected Types Of Domestic Gas Stoves, Arnold E. Baragar

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

This bulletin is a supplement to Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station Research Bulletin 86. Tests were conducted in the same manner as were those described in Bulletin 86; hence, no reference has been made to experimental methods unless a test has not been previously reported. This paper is primarily concerned with (1) a discussion of cooking tops producing excessive carbon-monoxide gas, (2) more data relative to cooking-top burner efficiencies, (3) a further discussion of automatic lighters, and (4) a detailed study of ovens.


Fifty Years Of Achievement In Agricultural Investigation, R. T. Prescott Mar 1939

Fifty Years Of Achievement In Agricultural Investigation, R. T. Prescott

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

In Nebraska, a hustling frontier state in 1887, the legislature hesitated not at all in taking advantage of the provisions of the Hatch Act, and now that fifty years have elapsed since the Station was founded, seventy-five years since the Land Grant College Act was passed and the U. S. Department of Agriculture established, and almost twenty-five years since the Agricultural Extension Service was added, it seems worth while to present a general summary of achievement within the state. The main object will be to show some of the important things that have been learned through the investigations of the …

An Outline Of The Principal Natural Resources Of Nebraska And Their Conservation, George E. Condra

George E. Condra Publications

Nebraska is well endowed with important natural resources, such as stone, clay, sand, soil, water, prairie, forests and wildlife. However, soil and water are our basic heritage because they, more than other resources, support native life, agriculture, industry, and social development.

The White River Oligocene Rodent Diplolophus, Erwin Hinckley Barbour, Thompson M. Stout Jan 1939

The White River Oligocene Rodent Diplolophus, Erwin Hinckley Barbour, Thompson M. Stout

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

The rich and varied nature of the mammalian faunas of the White River Oligocene has been recognized for many years, but the exact geologic succession is only now becoming known. In these faunal assemblages the rodents and lagomorphs appear to have been important elements, perhaps numerically as abundant in the Oligocene as are these same groups at present.

Birdbanding, Frederick C. Lincoln Jan 1939

Birdbanding, Frederick C. Lincoln

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

Birdbanding, by means of numbered bands, provides a method of studying living birds of all kinds. Scientific banding dates back to 1899, when a Danish schoolmaster, H. Chr. C. Mortensen, commenced systematically to band storks, teals, starlings, and two or three species of birds of prey. His success at once attracted the attention of European ornithologists, and it was not long before the birdbanding work came into prominence. At the present time banding is being actively conducted in North America as well as in England, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Russia, Iceland, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Hungary, Bulgaria, India, Morocco, …
