"Triassic-Jurassic 'Red Beds' Of The Rocky Mountain Region": A Discussion, John B. Reeside Jr.

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

The conclusion drawn by Professor E. B. Branson in a recent paper on the "Red Beds" of the Rocky Mountain region that parts of these beds are marine is considered likely. The conclusion that there exists no basis for subdivision of the beds is not accepted, and a division of the Mesozoic part into Lower Triassic, Upper Triassic, and Jurassic units is advocated. The conclusion that no eolian deposits are present likewise is not accepted, and the interpretation of important parts of the Jurassic unit as eolian is advocated. Disagreement is expressed with much of Professor Branson's correlation table, and …

The Frequency Of Somatic Mutation In Variegated Pericarp Of Maize, R. A. Emerson

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Some years ago (Emerson 1922) the writer announced that in F₂ of

certain crosses of variegated with colorless pericarp in maize the heterozygous

individuals changed to self color more frequently than did the homozygous

individuals of the same cultures. No “explanation” of this phenomenon

was then apparent, but later results, though still far from affording

an adequate solution of the problem, have furnished at least a working

hypothesis. The original unpublished paper, with minor modifications,

is given below, under the heading. “Somatic mutations in heterozygous

and in homozygous variegated pericarp.”

Symmetric Functions Of N-Ic Residues (Mod P), T. A. Pierce

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

If p be an odd prime, q is said to be an n- ic residue of p if the congruence xⁿ = q (mod p) has solutions; otherwise q is an n-ic non-residue of p. A necessary and sufficient condition that q be an n-ic residue of p is that
(1) q ^{(p- 1)/δ} ≡ 1, (mod p),
where δ = g.c.d. (p - 1, n). The numberf of n-ic residues of a given prime p is (p-1)/δ.
It is with the symmetric functions of these …

Thomas Chrowder Chamberlin's Contribu-Tions To Glacial Geology, William C. Alden

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

So prominent did Thomas Chrowder Chamberlin become in the field of glacial geology that it is a matter of some interest and importance to consider what was the status of the science at the time he turned his attention, as a student and a teacher, to it. So voluminous is the literature of this subject that it is obvious that one cannot in a sketch of this kind give even a general summary of the many books and papers on the subject published in this country, even were it desirable to do so. The intention is to indicate only what …

Experimental Studies Of Cultivation Of Certain Vegetable Crops, J. E. Weaver

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

For those who have an interest in the ecology of cultivated plants, Thompson's experimental studies on vegetable crops has a wealth of information. This memoir deals not only with the effect of cultivation on yield, but analyzes the several factors of soil moisture, soil temperature, and the production of nitrates as affected by cultivation, and the effect of weeds on these factors. Finally the root habits are studied, and a correlation is made between the root system and the response of the plant to cultivation.

Spraying Tree Fruits, C. C. Wiggans, E. H. Hoppert

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

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.
