Circular No. 85 - Chlorosis Yellowing Of Plants: Cause And Control, F. B. Wann

UAES Circulars

Chlorosis is a disease of plants, the characteristic symptom of which is the yellowing of the leaves. The disease is of sporadic but widespread distribution in Utah and the aggregate losses caused by it are undoubtedly greater than those of any other one disease. Not only are many plants killed, or weakened to such an extent that only inferior crops are produced, but many areas of land which might otherwise support profitable orchards have been abandoned or planted to other crops because of the disease.

Circular No. 84 - Building Young Deciduous Fruit Trees, Francis M. Coe

UAES Circulars

The modern fruit tree in a commercial orchard, to survive in present-day competition, must bear heavy crops. The mechanical strength which determines whether it can hold its heavy load successfully or whether it will be broken down and become a liability to its owner is determined to a large extent by the training it has received the first two or three years after planting.

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. 210 - The Mineral Content Of Grains, J. E. Greaves, C. T. Hirst

UAES Bulletins

It is generally recognized that shrunken, frosted, or smutty grain is inferior to sound, clean, plump grain. Much has been done on the protein content of grain, and the best millers today purchase grain for its protein content. Few give any consideration to its minerals. Yet do two bushels of sound, plump, clean grain of known protein content grown under the same or different conditions, have the same mineral content? If not, it is of importance to both the producer and consumer: to the consumer because it governs the nutritive value of the product; to the producer because it represents …

The Growth And Development Of Ephestia Kuehniella Zeller (Lepidoptera) And Tribolium Confusum Duval (Coleoptera) Under Controlled Conditions Of Temperature And Relative Humidity, Tom A. Brindley

Biology

The confused flour beetle (Tribolium confusum Duval) and Mediterranean flour moth (Ephestia kuehniella Zeller) have long been recorded as serious pests of stored grain products (Riley. 1839, Chittenden 1896). In recent years they have served as very valuable material for laboratory experiments on insect nutrition (Chapman 1924, Richardson 1926). In spite of the economic and scientiric importance of these two insects the writer could find little detailed information on their growth and development under carefully controlled conditions of temperature and relative hunidity, on a normal whole weat diet. This investigation is a study of the growth and development …

Bulletin No. 208 - An Economic Study Of The Apple Industry Of Utah, 1926 - 1927, W. Preston Thomas, P. V. Cardon

UAES Bulletins

Utah's commercial apple industry had its beginning when apple production was rapidly expanding in the west and throughout the United states. The increase in price of apples from 1896 to 1910 stimulated commercial apple production in this state which, up to 1905, produced apples principally for local consumption, the family orchard supplying the local trade and home use. According to the data secured from the survey herein reported, the major part of the commercial apple trees standing in 1926, in Utah, were planted during the period from 1906 to 1915. In 1910, 60 per cent of the total trees in …

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 …

Bulletin No. 206 - Treehopper Injury In Utah Orchards, Charles J. Sorenson

UAES Bulletins

Treehopper injury is a problem that has given many fruit growers in Utah some concern during recent years. These people have observed that their young fruit trees and the twigs and smaller branches of older trees have been attacked during the autumn of each year in a manner that produced numerous cuts which later formed scars. The trees frequently became unthrifty, and more or less deformed and stunted, as a result of these annual attacks.

The investigation reported in this publication was made for the purpose of ascertaining the present status of the treehopper situation in Utah orchards.

Bulletin No. 205 - The Beet Leafhopper In Utah: A Study Of Its Distribution And The Occurrence Of Curly-Top, George F. Knowlton

UAES Bulletins

The sugar-beet industry of Utah, and many other western states, has suffered enormous losses from curly-top. Under natural conditions this disease is transmitted, so far as known, solely through the feeding of the beet leafhopper, Eutettix tenellus (Baker), the so-called "white fly." The serious damage of 1924 and 1926 has especially emphasized the necessity for more knowledge concerning the problem.

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. 201 - Economic Insects In Some Streams Of Northern Utah, James G. Needham, Reed O. Christenson

UAES Bulletins

The food of trout in our mountain streams is mainly insects. It is, in part, land insects that fall on the water and are taken as they float upon its surface, but in a much larger part it is insects that grow up in the water and are taken in their immature stages. These are the constant and dependable food-supply. They have been little studied hitherto. This bulletin is a report of a preliminary examination of some Utah streams, made for the purpose of discovering what forms of life are present in the streams and in what relative abundance. Some …

Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten

Aspen Bibliography

Stockmen in the West have always had confidence in the adequacy of the native forage crop to provide pasturage for their livestock. Indeed, under normal climatic conditions this enormous natural resource has not failed the grazier, except where it has been called upon to meet unreasonable demands. The productivity of the range has declined sharply, however, wherever the requirements of plant growth have been disregarded for many years in succession. Where there has been too early or too frequent and to heavy grazing, undue trampling, or some other unsatisfactory feature of range use, the results have been uniformly bad. Many …
