Bulletin No. 203 - Cattle Ranching In Utah: Report Of A Preliminary Economic Survey Of The Ranch Situations As Of 1925, William Peterson, P. V. Cardon, K. C. Ikeler, Geroge Stewart, A. C. Esplin

UAES Bulletins

The Mexican War ended in 1846, but the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was not signed until 1848. Meantime, Utah was occupied by the Mormon pioneers, who having no land laws to guide them took land according to a plan furnished by Brigham Young. In Salt Lake City 10-acre blocks were divided into 8 building lots of 1 1/4 acres each. Just at the edge of the city were "five acre lots to accommodate mechanics and artisans; next beyond were 10-acre lots, followed by forty and eighty acres, where farmers could build and reside."

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. 200 - Maintaining Potato Yields By Hill Selection, George Stewart, D. C. Tingey

UAES Bulletins

Utah's agriculture has passed definitely out of its pioneer period. Single-cropping, whether to wheat, to potatoes, or to sugar-beets, during the past few years has been forced from its last stronghold. The earmarks of mature agriculture are already visible. Of these, there are four important ones: (1) the production of both crops and livestock; (2) careful manuring and irrigation; (3) good crop rotations; and (4) the use of high-grade parental stock, that is, prepotent sires for livestock and strong and healthy seed for crops.

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 …

The Need Of Public Junior Colleges In Utah, Evan B. Murray

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

“The need for junior colleges becomes more urgent from year to year. I would recommend that the legislature make provision for the establishment and maintenance of state junior colleges at such centers as it may deem advisable.” This is a quotation from state Superintendent C. N. Jensen.

The following study is intended to answer, to a degree at least, the two questions inherent in this statement: namely, Is there a need for state junior colleges in Utah? If there is a need, where should they be established?

A Study Of The Seasonal History Of Alfalfa Flowers As Related To Seed Production, John W. Carlson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

A few researches have been concerned with the structure and pollination of alfalfa flowers. Others have considered the biological problems concerned in the pollination and fecundation of the flowers. In none of these studies, however, has an attempt been made to follow carefully the alfalfa flowers through various stages of development. Nor has any effort been made to determine what effect the condition and duration of these stages may have upon the resulting seed crop.

The work that follows is a study of the changes through which the alfalfa flowers pass during the season while functioning as organs of seed …

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 …
