The Influence Of Length Of Storage Of Bovine Semen On Conception Rate Under Field Conditions, A. B. Schultze, H. P. Davis, C. T. Blunn, M. M. Oloufa

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

It is the purpose of this study to determine whether under conditions of routine handling in artificial breeding associations there is a decline in semen fertility from day to day and also to determine the magnitude of this decline. Tabulation of such data will not only be of value in determining the effect of frequent semen collection on the over-all artificial breeding results but will also serve as a basis of comparison in investigational work directed toward increasing the efficiency of artificial breeding.

Distribution Of Microorganisms In The Soil As Affected By Plowing And Subtilling Crop Residues, Roy C. Dawson, Virginia T. Dawson, T. M. Mccalla

Studies On The Parasitic Helminths Of The North Central States. I. Helminths Of Sciurida, Robert L. Rausch, Jack Tiner

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

It is accepted that a fair degree of completeness is being achieved in our knowledge of North American mammals and birds. It can be assumed that nearly all the described species of the higher vertebrates are parasitized by helminths, but many of these helminths probably remain undescribed, and little is known of their geographical distribution. Very little information is available on the incidence of the parasites, or their effect on the host.

Sarcocystis (Aspergillus?) In Wood Warblers [General Notes], George H. Breiding, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

On August 9, 1944, near Columbus, Ohio, Breiding collected an immature male black and white warbler (Mniotilta varia). Upon preparing it as a study skin, the bird was found to be heavily infected with Sarcocystis. This experience was repeated with an adult male Mourning Warbler (Oporornis philadelphia), taken near Cheat Bridge, Randolph County, West Virginia, June 14, 1945. Both birds appeared to be in healthy condition.

Two species of wood warbler, the olive-backed warbler (Parula pitiayumi) and the American redstart (Setophaga ruticilla) have previously been recorded as hosts for this organism …

Strawberries In Nebraska, C. C. Wiggans

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The strawberry is more widely grown than any other fruit in Nebraska and is the most valuable of the small fruits. Its total value is greater than that of any of the other fruit crops grown with the exception of apples, cherries, and grapes. It thrives well in all sections where moisture is not too limited and is found almost always in home gardens. It is also produced commercially to some extent, especially near the larger cities in the eastern end of the state.

Dendrouterina Botauri N. Sp., A Cestode Parasitic In Bitterns, With Remarks On Other Members Of The Genus, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

A single cestode belonging to the genus Dendrouterina Fuhrmann, 1912, was taken from the small intestine of a least bittern, Ixobrychus e. exilis (Gmelin), collected by the writer on May 31, 1945, at Buckeye Lake, Ohio. Considerable difficulty was experienced in obtaining adequate material of this cestocde, although bitterns were collected in Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Manitoba. A second infected bird, an American bittern, Botaurus l. lentiginosus (Monatgu), was collected on April 24, 1947, at Horicon Marsh, Wisconsin. Three specimens of Dendrouterina were obtained from this bird.
Unfortunately, since refrigeration was not available in the field, the scolices of all …

United States Patent: Antenna Strain Insulator, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

The invention to be hereinafter described relates to insulators and more particularly to strain insulators for wire antennas.

It has long been common practice to use with antenna wires on airplanes the well known porcelain or ceramic insulator, the wire ends being looped through or about the insulator, and brought back and twisted about the wire to tie, anchor or securely attach or fasten the insulator to the antenna. The produces small wire-end surfaces or other small wire surfaces, where the wires are would or twisted, which under certain atmospheric conditions are favorable to corona discharges. When the corona discharge …
