Notes On A Thermophilic Bacillus, R. Earle Buchanan

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

That group of plants capable of growth and reproduction at temperatures high above the normal or ordinary has long been an object of interest and study among scientists. An examination of any systematic treatise on the Schizophyceae will be rewarded by a considerable list of species that grow in hot springs, etc. In Rabenhorst's "Flora Europa Algarum" for instance, there are no fewer than thirteen genera having species or varieties characterized as "thermalis," while others are known to live in water having a temperature of 80°-93° C. Conspicuous and abundant as the Schizophyceae are in these thermal waters, yet …

The Biology Of The Bacillus Violaceus Laurentius Or Pseudomonas Janthina, Grace Roodde Rueda

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The first mention of pigment producing growth is of great antiquity. It aroused the suspicion of the ancients, worked on the religious zeal of the people of the Middle Ages, and today solicits the study and investigation of modern scientists. In the light of our present cultural means of study the chromogenic group of bacteria is especially interesting. The products can be easily watched and as easily segregated. Each organism can be classed together under color and can thus be definitely recognized. The B. prodigiosus is such an organism. It responds fully to laboratory methods. It has been thoroughly studied …

The Animal Cell In The Light Of Recent Work, Gilbert L. Houser

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

With the discovery of the centrosome, microscopical work on the animal cell apparently reached its culmination. It was predicted that further study would yield little more than the details of larger facts already known. The last few years have marked the addition of just such details in even greater measure than was imagined; but it is also true that altogether unexpected contributions have been made from work along other than classic microscopical lines. Especially to be mentioned are: (1) the application to the cell of the data and the methods of physical chemistry; and (2) the extension of experimental biology …

Presidential Address - Two Centuries Of North American Lichenology, Bruce Fink

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Surely no apology is in order for offering here an address in which attention is directed for the short time to a limited field in one of the biological sciences. All men of science are interested to some extent in the history of the rise and progress of every phase of scientific inquiry, and even for the layman who may favor us with his presence this evening, it is hoped that the record of devotion, sacrifice and completion of valuable work will afford something of interest.

The Furcula In The Collembola, J. E. Guthrie

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The Collembola or "Spring-tails" comprise a very interesting order of wingless insects, usually associated with the order Thysanura, and frequently placed in that order. These little insects are common under bark and stones and among loose debris, wherever they can find dark, moist hiding places. As they range from less than 1 to only about 4 millimeters in length, and are usually very agile, we seldom notice them when collecting unless we are looking especially for them.

Some Bacteriological Examinations Of Iowa Waters, L. H. Pammel, R. E. Buchanan, Edna L. King

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A good supply of water is of prime importance for every community. We are more and more beginning to appreciate and to insist on the disposal of sewage and a proper and good supply of water. It is astonishing that epidemics of typhoid fever are so common. Especially so when we know that typhoid fever is a preventable disease in large measure. It is astonishing that it is so common a disease in countries where sanitary science has attained its greatest development.

Regeneration In The Crayfish, John J. Lambert

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In working over a series of crayfishes for class purposes, certain quite suggestive facts came to light concerning the regeneration of the appendages under the conditions of normal environment. The specimens examined were mature males and females taken directly from their natural surroundings. While not imputing lack of value to experimental work in the field of regeneration, it certainly is true that nature and the laboratory are two very different things. It is therefore felt that the following notes, while preliminary in character, are of sufficient value for publication.

Notes On The Position Of The Individuals In A Group Of Nileus Vigilans Found At Elgin, Iowa, G. E. Finch

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

David Dale Owen made note more than fifty years ago of the multitudes of fragmentary specimens of Asaphus iowensis in an exposure at the junction of Otter Creek with the Turkey River at Elgin, Iowa. From then on, that locality has been classic trilobite territory. The most abundant species to be found entire there now, if good trilobites can be said to be abundant anywhere, is Nileus vigilans, which occurs both enrolled and more or less straightened in form.

Living Plants As Geological Factors, B. Shimek

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The importance of water as a geological agent, both constructive and destructive, is so great and its effects are everywhere so patent, that by contrast the importance of other agents is underestimated, or in large part over looked. Among these underestimated agents plants may be classed so far as their modern work is concerned.

Presidential Address - Some Problems Of Heredity And Evolution, H. E. Summers

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Of all biological problems none is of more importance and interest to the mass of mankind than that dealing with the laws of evolution. To the biologist, of course, these laws are of prime importance, as expressing the ultimate result of all life processes. But I refer here rather to the widespread interest among all classes of educated people, due, I believe, to a feeling that as our human civilization is advancing in conformity with these laws, a fuller knowledge of them might enable us the better to guide and control our progress in the future.

Factors Of Extinction, Herbert Osborn

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

While we have come to recognize clearly the fact of extinction of animal types and their replacement by other forms of life there appears to have been less attention to the special factors concerned in such extinction, or, to put it differently we have been devoting our attention especially to the factors concerned in the production of new types, the variation and evolution of animals, rather than the factors of extinction. It is true that these may bear a close relationship and present mutual dependencies and possibly we might take them as necessary corollaries or consider factors of extinction as …

The University Of Montana Biological Station, Maurice Ricker

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Noticeable among recent movements tending to promote the interests of biological science is the development of the inland biological station. Any arrangement whereby students and teachers may work under proper guidance out of doors, in nature's own laboratory, should be encouraged. Our own state made a beginning last summer at Lake Okoboji. I sincerely hope it may become permanent and that many teachers in Iowa will avail themselves of the opportunity to combine a pleasurable outing with profitable field and laboratory work in Natural Science.

Presidential Address - The Relation Of Physics To The Other Material Sciences, A. A. Veblen

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The last year or two of the nineteenth century and this first year of the twentieth have been prolific in literature dealing in one way or another with science topics. There have been addresses before learned and educational gatherings, articles in science journals, and in periodicals of well-nigh all kinds, much of all this writing having been produced by the masters and leaders of science; and the object of these productions has been, generally, to give a view of the present condition and importance of scientific work and knowledge, or to review recent progress either of science in general or …

A Study In The Hereditary Transmission Of Finger Patterns, A. A. Veblen

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

By finger patterns is meant figures formed by the minute papillary ridges upon the inside surface of the last joint of the thumb and fingers. They are most conveniently studied by inking the fingers with printer's ink and making impressions on paper or any smooth light surface to which the ink will adhere. Sir Francis Galton in his work "Finger Prints" and other publications, treats the subject of these patterns exhaustively and scientifically. The patterns are of practically infinite variety. They are also persistent and unchanging through the life of the individual, and are destroyed or obliterated only by violent …

Forestry In Iowa, B. Shimek

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A paper on forestry in Iowa might be condensed in the form of a paraphrase of the schoolboy's essay on "Snakes in Ireland," — "there is no forestry in Iowa," —at least none in practice, though the need of the practical application of its principles may be seen in every township of land in the state.
