Bulletin No. 265 - Phosphorus Supplements Improve Sugar-Beet By-Product Rations For Cattle, E. J. Maynard, J. E. Greaves, H. H. Smith

UAES Bulletins

In sugar-beet producing areas of the Intermountain West and Pacific Coast beet by-products constitute a most economical source of feed for fattening livestock.

In Utah there are available each year some 144,000 tons of wet beet pulp and some 20,000 tons of beet molasses; in addition, about 6500 tons of dried molasses beet pulp are available in the form of meal or pellets.

Practically all of this livestock feed supply, with a nutritive value equivalent to approximately 41,000 tons of corn or barley, has been fed, together with alfalfa hay, to cattle or sheep for maintenance or in the production …

Bulletin No. 263 - Relative Produciton Of Feed Grain From Spring-Grown Cereals In Utah, R. W. Woodward, D. C. Tingey

UAES Bulletins

Nearly one-third of the cropped acreage of Utah is devoted to cereals. Except for wheat, most of these crops are fed locally. In addition to this, an average of over a million bushels of corn, barley, and oats is shipped into the state each year to be used in various livestock and poultry industries.

The purpose of this publication is to show the comparative amount of feed produced by the different crops--wheat, oats, barley, and corn--under similar conditions as determined for the specified four years by acre-yields obtained in various agricultural regions of the state. One should bear clearly in …

Bulletin No. 259 - Drainage Of Land Overlying An Artesian Groudwater Reservoir: Final Report, O. W. Israelsen, W. W. Mclaughlin

UAES Bulletins

This bulletin constitutes a final report of some phases of cooperative drainage studies in Cache Valley, Utah. The drainage problem in Cache Valley is typical, in many respects, of drainage problems in other irrigated valleys of Utah and the West in general. Application of the principles indicated by the problems will doubtless add materially to the productivity of the land in the several communities concerned and will also contribute to the advancement of public welfare in the general improvement of health, economic, and social conditions. Alkali and water-logging affecting large areas are causes not only of low productivity of the …

Bulletin No. 257 - Factors Promoting Positive Health In School Children, Almeda Perry Brown

UAES Bulletins

It is necessary only to observe groups of rural children to become convinced that too many of them are deprived of their rightful heritage of positive health.

Why children playing together, working together, under conditions which apparently vary but little, should exhibit such wide variation in health conditions, is a question of vital importance to all concerned with the care of children.

It was with the hope of finding some of the causes behind these variations that the present study was initiated. That the problem is complex and intricate was fully realized, and no hope was entertained that its solution …

A Cytological Study Of Spermatogenisis In Anasa Tristis (De Geer), Eldon J. Gardner

Biology

This study has included the collecting of specimens, preparation of the material for microscopic examination and the tracing of the process of spermatogenesis in the common squash bug, Anasa tristis (De Geer). Live bugs were kept throughout the summer (1934) on squash vines in Logan and abundant material was obtained. Ninety-four slides showing sections of twenty-one testes from fourteen different bugs were prepared by various methods. The best slides were made from material fixed in Bouin’s solution and imbedded in paraffin. Some were stained with Delafield’s haematoxylin and eosin as a counterstain and others were stained with iron haematoxylin by …

A Survey Of The Literature Dealing With The Calcium-Phosphorus Metabolism Of Normal Children, Albertine Appy Noecker

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The purpose of this study is to collect and organize all data available to the investigator on the subject of calcium and phosphorus requirements for normal children. Since it is the business of nutrition to maintain health and prevent disorders, leaving the cure of disorders to the medical profession, this study deals with the calcium and phosphorus metabolism of normal children and avoids going into the pathological phases, taking up rickets and tetany only in so far as prevention is concerned.

If this study has any value it lies in the fact that the findings of investigators seem to be …

Bulletin No. 254 - Summer And Winter Rations For Fattening Hogs, H. H. Smith, E. J. Maynard

UAES Bulletins

Practically all of the 85,000 hogs on the farms of Utah (as of August 1, 1934) are in the irrigated sections of the state where they fit in well with dairying. Utah, however, is a hog-deficient area and produces about 109,000 hogs less than are slaughtered in the state for its own use. Large amounts of milk by-products such as skim milk, buttermilk, and whey are produced in Utah. Large amounts of alfalfa are also grown in the irrigated sections, thus providing excellent pasture for the growing out and feeding of market hogs. Barley is the principal feeding grain grown …

Studies On The Comparative Value Of The Hot Treatment (Krantz Patent) And Common Methods Of Handling Barnyard Manure, Orval E. Winkler

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Antidating written human history the dung of animals, chalk, marl, wood ashes and other substances were probably used to increase the productivity of the soil. These practises found their way into the earliest farming activities of the Chinese, Persians, Greeks and Romans. (3)(11) In the Hebrew scriptures mention is made of the "Dung Gate". (10) This was undoubtedly a place given to the marketing of manures. That manure was used as a soil amendment in Asia Minor in Biblical times is not questioned. The famous Roman agricultural writer Cato (234 B.C.) wrote at length on manures and their handling. He …

Bulletin No. 248 - Results Of Seven Years Of Egg-Laying Contests, Byron Alder

UAES Bulletins

The Utah Intermountain Egg-Laying Contests were begun on November 1, 1924, and continued until October 23, 1931. Up until this time the interest in poultry-breeding for egg production in this intermountain section was extremely limited; furthermore, there were few flocks on which trap nest and pedigree breeding records were kept.

The primary object in conducting these contests was to stimulate an interest in the breeding of better poultry. An egg-laying contest makes it possible for the poultry raiser, trying to get started in poultry-breedng work on a limited scale, to obtain accurate individual egg records of some of his pullets …

Since 1929 the Department of Agricultural Economics of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station and the Divisions of Farm Management and Costs and of Cooperative Marketing of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics of the United States Department of Agriculture have been cooperating in conducting a study of the economic factors affecting the production and marketing of poultry products in Utah. Under the arrangement, as entered into by these three groups, the Agricultural Economics Department of the Experiment Station and the Division of Farm Management and Costs of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics agreed to study the trends in production, feed supply, …

Bird Studies Of The Bear River Marshes, Ernest W. Parkinson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The establishment of the Bear River Bay Bird Refuge has created for the state of Utah an immense and valuable biological field, a veritable paradise for naturalist and sportsman alike. The naturalist wants a place to study wild life and the sportsman desires game. With the proper control of open seasons on wild fowl the hunting instinct and incentive for the sport should be satisfied for the sportsman. To the naturalist this region will open up bountiful treasures of knowledge that is to be gained only by intense and prolonged scientific study.
