Some Effects Of Inorganic Fluoride On Plants, Animals, And Man, Delbert A. Greenwood Mar 1956

Some Effects Of Inorganic Fluoride On Plants, Animals, And Man, Delbert A. Greenwood

Faculty Honor Lectures

~~~ in the compounds of fluorine may be traced to one or more of the following factors: ( 1) the consumption of a drinking water containing one part per million of fluorine as a soluble flouride during the period of calcification and eruption of the teeth causes a reduction in the incidence of tooth decay; however, an intake of drinking water containing more than two parts per million of fluorine causes dental fluorosis of varying degrees in man and certain animals; (2) a continuous intake of excessive amounts of fluorine as mineral supplement, in contaminated forage, or the grazing of …


A History Of The United States Air Force Reserve Officers Training Corps, Raymond A. Stevens May 1955

A History Of The United States Air Force Reserve Officers Training Corps, Raymond A. Stevens

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Tragic as it may seem, every generation of Americans, without exception, has had to go to war. Americans, as hopeful and idealistic about peace as any people in history, have been forced into war three times in four decades--twice in the last one. When a great nation must choose between war and survival, there really is no choice. It must fight.

In the past we have misconceived the choice between preparedness and unpreparedness as a choice between large standing armed forces and no defenses at all. Inevitably, a peaceful people have chosen no defenses. In peacetime we cannot possibly maintain …

A Study And Evaluation Of The Automotive Program At The Utah State Agricultural College, Ivan E. Lee

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

As the graduates of colleges and universities receive their diplomas and leave their Alma Mater, a new and different challenge confronts them. Their problem now is not one of being free of the struggles of completing their education but rather the anticipation of what will be their success in the future. They feel that now they are qualified to take over new jobs and responsibilities for which they have been trained. Many will be successful in securing good positions in their respective fields (others may have to start at the bottom and gain their advancement through more learning while on …

A Study To Determine The Content Of An Industrial Arts Program In The Elementary Schools Of Box Elder County, Charles M. Hawkes May 1954

A Study To Determine The Content Of An Industrial Arts Program In The Elementary Schools Of Box Elder County, Charles M. Hawkes

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The child is the reason for the school. He is the one for whom learning experiences are provided. Our understanding of the child as a growing individual and as a learner, his personality and his purposes and interests, supply the foundation for developing an effective educational program.

No longer do we look at the education program as a sole preparation for some future life. Instead it has now become more a process whereby we make the most of present living in order that we might live a more full and rich life each day. Education is something that goes on …


A Determination Of Variability Of Teaching Assignments In The Secondary Schools Of Utah Together With Implications For Teacher Education Curricula, June Butler Willhite May 1954

A Determination Of Variability Of Teaching Assignments In The Secondary Schools Of Utah Together With Implications For Teacher Education Curricula, June Butler Willhite

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

It is usually recognized that, in the broad sense, our public schools are maintained for the instruction of children and youth. Moreover, there appear to be three important factors which bear directly upon the nature of this instruction: (1) the individuals who enter the teaching profession, the kinds of people they are, their physical, emotional and mental characteristics or capacities; (2) the kind of education these potential educators receive in preparation for their professional work; and, (3) the actual teaching assignment the individual receives in the particular school where he is employed. Commonly, these three matters are referred to as …

The Teaching Of Science, Sherwin Maeser May 1952

The Teaching Of Science, Sherwin Maeser

Faculty Honor Lectures

Like to teach! Whether with the expectant, half-frightened freshman, the senior, worried about his preparation now that . he must get out and meet competition, or the graduate student interested in new discoveries, I like to work with all of them.

I have been teaching a long time now. As has always been the case when one generation is thinking of turning over its work to the next, I am glad to have the opportunity to talk about some of the things that I consider important in this job of teaching.

The most varied and the most acute problems of …

A Cyto-Taxonomic Study Of The Genus Geranium Within The Wasatch Region, Richard J. Shaw May 1950

A Cyto-Taxonomic Study Of The Genus Geranium Within The Wasatch Region, Richard J. Shaw

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The western North American species of the genus Geranium have never been satisfactorily clarified. The perennial, indigenous species of this interesting group have been particularly confusing. One important reason for confusion in this group is the fact that the taxonomic problems of the perennial species have never been studied from the genetic point of view. A sound delimitation of specific and subspecific boundaries and phylogenetic relationships cannot be achieved without the application of cyto-genetic principles.

In respect to the cytological phase of this study, the author has placed emphasis on chromosome numbers in order to show evidences for and possible …

Geological Studies In Utah, J. Stewart Williams Apr 1948

Geological Studies In Utah, J. Stewart Williams

Faculty Honor Lectures

Utah's thousands of square miles of mountains, plateaus, and i ~ desert basins exhibit a wide variety of geological features and offer the student of geology an endless series of challenging problems. The solution of some of these problems began nearly one hundred years ago with the surveys of the United States territories; the work continues today at a greatly accelerated rate with scores of professional geologists and advanced students in the field each summer. The writer and students under his direction have made some contributions to the solution of a few of these problems in the twelve years that …

Bulletin No. 316 - Marketing Fruits And Vegetables In Utah, W. Preston Thomas, George T. Blanch Mar 1945

Bulletin No. 316 - Marketing Fruits And Vegetables In Utah, W. Preston Thomas, George T. Blanch

UAES Bulletins

During the period from 1920 to 1941 the fruit industry in Utah and other areas or the west went through a period of adjustment. Previous to and during World War I, growers received high prices for fruit which resulted in increased production. However, following the sudden drop in prices of 1920, fruit growers had a hard time to market the large tonnage produced. Returns were low. During this period keen competition for the sale of fruits developed between individual growers and various producing areas. Although the problems of adjustment were severe in most fruit areas of the west, the marketing …

Bulletin No. 304 - Phosphate Reserves Of Utah, J. Stewart Williams, Alvin M. Hanson Oct 1942

Bulletin No. 304 - Phosphate Reserves Of Utah, J. Stewart Williams, Alvin M. Hanson

UAES Bulletins

To supplement the work reported by the senior author in Bulletin 290 of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station, the writers have visited the phosphate outcrops in Weber, Morgan and Salt Lake Counties, as well as those in the Park City District of Summit County and others west of Midway in Wasatch County. These areas were found to contain considerable phosphatic shale of 25 to 35 percent grade, but no rock of 40 percent grade, the minimum quality included in the estimates in Bulletin 290. However, the data recorded for the sections visited are valuable in showing the leanness of these …


Cambrian Stratigraphy In The Northern Wasatch Region, George Burke Maxey May 1941

Cambrian Stratigraphy In The Northern Wasatch Region, George Burke Maxey

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

An exhaustive field study of the Cambrian stratigraphy of the northern Wasatch region indicates that in addition to the Blacksmith Fork section there are two complete and better exposed middle and upper sections. Several other good exposures of the lower Middle Cambrian section have been studied in detail. The Spence shale is found to be a member low in the Langston, not the basal member of the Ute. Relative ages of the Spence shale and Ptarmigania faunas have been determined. Other Cambrian faunal zones have been discovered and are discussed. Paleontologic evidence suggests that the Nounan formation is of Upper …


Utah State Agricultural College Graduates Now Living In Other States, Robert Dawson Simpson May 1940

Utah State Agricultural College Graduates Now Living In Other States, Robert Dawson Simpson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

This is a study of graduates of the Utah State Agricultural College who have left Utah and are now residing elsewhere. Inquiries by faculty members and interested alumni, as well as the writer's own interest in the subject of migration, prompted the organization of this study.

The immediate reason for the inquiry was an enlarging interest on the campus concerning the present whereabouts of graduates who have left the state. When present residence was ascertained, other questions arose. What kind of employment had migrating graduates secured? What major interests were had? What important voluntary public services are graduates rendering to …


Bulletin No. 291 - Range Resources Of Rich County, Utah, L. A. Stoddart Mar 1940

Bulletin No. 291 - Range Resources Of Rich County, Utah, L. A. Stoddart
