Circular No. 83 - Planning, Planting, And Caring For Young Orchard, Francis M. Coe

UAES Circulars

Fruit growing offers many advantages to the farmer of the intermountain west, chief of which is the high return possible from a relatively small farm. Few crops will give as high an acre-yield or return as a properly located and managed orchard. Acre-yields of from 500 to 800 bushels of apples, pears, or peaches are not unusual. The work is pleasant, interesting, and healthful, as well as remunerative when properly conducted. Fruit Growing Attractive, Profitable

Circular No. 82 - Lamb Slaughtering And Cutting, Harry H. Smith

UAES Circulars

The old saying that "the shoemaker's wife goes without shoes" might be changed to read "the lamb raiser and feeder of the west does not eat lamb." About three-fourths of the population of the United states is east of the Mississippi River, and about 90 per cent of all the lamb and mutton produced in the United states is consumed east of the Mississippi. It has been observed, both on the farms and in towns, that a large percentage of people in the sheep sections of the west have tasted neither lamb nor mutton.

Circular No. 81 - Beef Slaughtering, Cutting, And Curing, Harry H. Smith

UAES Circulars

Many farmers follow the practice of occasionally slaughtering a steer, a heifer, or a calf for home use. When this practice is followed the farmer is assured of getting meat of high quality. Experience has taught him that he is not always :able to get meat at a local market which equals in quality that which he slaughters on his own farm. The butcher is not at fault as he usually handles the quality of meat his customers desire and will accept.

Circular No. 80 - Domestic Slaughtering, Cutting, And Curing Of Pork, Harry H. Smith

UAES Circulars

The practice of slaughtering hogs on the farm is being followed rather extensively by the farmers of this state. It is an economic practice and should be more generally followed because by this practice a supply of meat is available throughout the year. In all ages meat has been the principal article of diet of the ruling races. It is a natural and necessary part of man's diet. The races of people who have not included meat in their diet are today numbered among the weaker and more backward nations.

Bulletin No. 213 - Food Habits Of Utah Farm Families, Almeda Perry Brown

UAES Bulletins

This report is merely an attempt to set forth the findings of the investigation without making claim to their being conclusive except for the families included in the study. While the study was carried into a relatively large portion of the state, the records are too few in number for any claim to be made that they represent community food conditions. It is believed, however, that the records which form the basis of this report are representative of the food situation in the homes from which they come.

Bulletin No. 207 - The Physical Cure Character Of Milk And Its Relationship To The Digestability And Food Value Of Milk For Infants, R. L. Hill

UAES Bulletins

In the feeding of infants,' cows' milk is the best and most common substitute for human milk. In the feeding of delicate infants, however, considerable difficulty is often experienced from its use. The ideal substitute for mothers' milk has not been found, and most of the clinical effort has been directed towards the modification of cows' milk for infants.

Comparatively little research has been done on the difference in the digestibility and food value of milks from different cows for the infant. It is a well-known fact that the curd of cows' milk forms in a tough mass which varies …

The Status Of Teacher Rating In Utah, Charles P. Mcgregor

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Any satisfactory amount of literature or information as to the condition of teacher rating in Utah is not available. The writer therefore has felt justified in making a search for such information.

Education is one of the biggest businesses of the state, a business with which nearly all are concerned. It is a business which calls for vast sums of money to finance its cause in buildings and equipment. A part of this equipment is the teacher, and a most vital part, for it rests largely upon the teacher to shape the livest of boys and girls into worthy citizens. …

Circular No. 69 - Clean Milk And Its Production, E. G. Carter

UAES Circulars

Successful dairy farming is fast growing into an exacting profession, and in order to be successful the dairy farmer must not only recognize the value of good clean milk but must know how to produce it as well. Good milk, good butter, and good cheese are acknowledged to be in great demand, and each brings fair financial returns.

Since the beginning of the dairy industry one of the big difficulties has been that of obtaining clean milk and cream. By applying the best scientific methods in the manufacture of dairy products the ill effect of impure milk can be partly …

Circular No. 66 - Physical Curd Character Of Milk And Its Probably Relation To Infant Nutrition, R. L. Hill

UAES Circulars

A problem which must be met by many mothers is that of obtaining for their infants an adequate substitute for breast milk. The weaning period is a very critical time in the life of every infant. Its ability to properly digest and assimilate the food supplied will largely determine its state of health, provided it is kept free from infection.

Milk formulas for the feeding of infants are often made up to conform to certain fat requirements. Some infants apparently have difficulty in properly assimilating a milk with a high fat content. This may be due to a low fat …

Bulletin No. 202 - Some Observations On Winter Injury In Utah Peach Orchards, T. H. Abell

UAES Bulletins

During the winter following the freeze, fruit growers in Utah were deeply concerned over the effects of the cold on their orchards, since it was observed that not only were fruit buds killed, but the tissues of the trunks, limbs, and twigs were turning brown. The question at once arose as to whether or not this browning indicated the approaching death of the trees. It was, therefore, considered important to determine, if possible, the nature and extent of the damage, to discover any factor which might have favored or lessened the injury, and finally to offer suggestions to the orchardist …

Bulletin No. 199 - Mutual Irrigation Companies In Utah, Wells A. Hutchins

UAES Bulletins

Cooperation has been an important factor in the development of agriculture under irrigation in Utah. The Mormon pioneers in the Great Basin were the first Anglo-Saxons to practice irrigation on an extensive scale in the United States; hence, it is significant that from the first their irrigation work was accomplished largely as a result of community effort. Private diversions of water there were, of course, even in the earliest times, but for years they were quite out of place in an environment that took quick toll of those individualists who scorned the protection of numbers and refused to cooperate. The …

An Investigation Of The Economic Relationships Of Tree-Hoppers In Utah Orchards, Charles J. Sorenson

Biology

An investigation of the economic relationships of treehoppers in Utah orchards, as reported in this paper, began in the summer of 1923 and has continued, from time to time, to the present. During the years 1922 to 1925, inclusive,* tree-hopper damage in the orchards of Utah County came to the attention of the writer so frequently and in such a manner that it appeared to be a problem of considerable economic importance. Because of this latter consideration, a study of the situation in Utah was begun. This investigation has included a study of: (1) the occurrence of damage; (2) degree …

Circular No. 60 - Seed-Potato Treatment: For The Control Of Four Common Diseases Rhizoctonia, Scab, Blackleg, Dry-Rot, B. L. Richards

UAES Circulars

Potato diseases are a constant menace to the Utah potato crop. During the 4-year period from 1920 to 1924 losses sustained from disease averaged 19.5 per cent, or approximately one-fifth of the entire state crop. This means that every year a large percentage of the seed planted is useless and that one-fifth of every acre planted to potatoes is wasted. Again, labor in the way of planting and in cultivation is used to poor advantage, and finally the grower suffers a direct financial loss which frequently eats up his expected profit.

Circular No. 58 - Potato Production In Utah, George Stewart

UAES Circulars

Potatoes were the first crop planted in Utah. In July 1847, the Mormon pioneers turned the water from City Creek over the parched land near what is now the center of Salt Lake City. The ground was then broken and sown at once to potatoes. Only a small yield was obtained but this helped materially to eke out the meagre food supply until the harvest of 1848. During the several hard years that followed potatoes were among the most important foods for the pioneer settlers. Since then they have held a prominent place in the agriculture of the state.
