Ec28-234 Nebraska System For Tattooing Hogs For Identification After Slaughter, G.R. Boomer, O.O. Waggener

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

A plan to identify the individual farm upon which hogs reaching markets are produced has been developed in connection with the efforts toward eradicating tuberculosis among farm animals. While primarily intended as a means of tracing back to determine sources of disease infection, the system of tattooing which is being developed has other significant possibilities. With the growing emphasis on quality products in the market, it is only fair that the producers of high quality commodities receive the premiums paid by processors and consumers. Health of farm animals is a quality factor. The producer of healthy hogs should be rewarded. …

Ec28-36 Spraying Tree Fruits (Revised March 1932), C.C. Wiggans, E.H. Hoppert

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

The production of sound, clean fruit is unquestionably one of the major problems facing the modern fruit grower. Culture may be neglected and pruning delayed for a time but the omission of sprays for even a single season demonstrates their absolute necessity. This applies equally to the commercial grower and to the farmer or gardener who has only a few trees.

Spray materials, equipment, management, schedules, insect pests and orchard diseases are discussed in this 1928 extension circular.

Rb28-229 Fattening Steers Of Various Ages, H.J. Gramlich

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

During recent years the beef industry has undergone vast changes. These have been made necessary in part by economic conditions and in part by changes in the demands of the American people. The tendency has been toward earlier marketing of steers, so that instead of going to the block as mature individuals at from 3 to 5 years of age, they are now reaching the market at a much younger age. In consuming centers where only heavy carcasses of beef were demanded formerly there is a call today for carcasses of the yearling and long yearling class.

A Research Delusion, George L. Peltier

Department of Plant Pathology: Faculty Publications

With the administrative heads of many of our educational institutions demanding a doctorate of every member of the permanent staff, as it is supposed to be a prerogative for research, and the issuing of a list of titles published each year by their staff, the urge for so-called research, namely, a list of titles, goes madly on. In fact publication sometimes becomes a sort of self-defense, for the absence of any titles over a brief period of years stamps one either as lacking the ability of doing research or inefficient. Likewise, such a policy has permeated the staff, so that …

The Structure And Development Of Corallobothrium With Descriptions Of Two New Fish Tapeworms (With Five Plates), Hiram Eli Essex

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Introduction

Representatives of the genus Corallobothrium from American fish have never been described. Marshall and Gilbert (1905) report two members of this genus taken from Ameiurus melas (black bullhead) caught in the lakes at Madison, Wisconsin. La Rue (1914) refers to an undescribed species of Corallobothrium encysted in the livers of A. melas and A. nebulosus (common bullhead) from the Illinois River. Ward (1918) noted the presence of a species of Corallobothrium in lctalurus punctatus (channel-cat) at Milford, Nebraska. Aside from these incidental references, the American literature contains no information on this interesting group of fish tapeworms.

The Spiders Of Nebraska, Leonard G. Worley, Gayle B. Pickwell

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

Lawrence Bruner, in the early days of his work in Nebraska, made a collection of the spiders that he came upon during his collecting trips in various parts of the state and these specimens were later identified by George Marx, one of the older archaeologists. Marx's list of identifications was sent to Professor Bruner in a letter dated July 26, 1893, but in the years that have passed since that time the specimens themselves have been lost and all that remains is the list as it appears in the letter. This list includes 107 species, of which 8 cannot now …

Further Experiments With Poisoned Baits For Grasshoppers, M. H. Swenk

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

In the summer of 1922 a series of experiments was carried on at the Scotts Bluff Experiment Substation for the purpose of finding, if possible, a formula for preparing an inexpensive and efficient poisoned bait for grasshoppers that could be recommended to the farmers of the North Platte valley, and also of learning more concerning the relative values of certain attractants and poisons commonly used in such baits, as well as the best time to scatter them to obtain the most satisfactory results. While the results were fairly conclusive from a qualitative standpoint, the time was not available in the …

Crop Production In India, J. E. Weaver

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

It is rarely that one finds a book on the subject of agriculture of such broad scope, fascinating interest, and so full of the applications of ecology and physiology as Howard's " Crop-production in India." In every chapter numerous problems of plant growth in relation to environment are brought before the reader in such a stimulating manner that one can scarcely conclude but that ecology will reach its greatest usefulness in the field of general agriculture. It is a book to which every student of environment should have ready access.
