Factors Affecting Length Of Tenure Of Vocational Agriculture Teachers Who Are Recent Graduates Of Utah State Agricultural College, John M. Oglesby

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Since its beginning well over a quarter of a century ago, the Vocational Agriculture program has become an integral part of the American school system. The legislative groundwork for Vocational Agriculture, as well as all other vocational programs, was set in 1917 with the passing of the Smith-Hughes Act. Further related legislation was passed in 1929 and 1934, but the program received its greatest federal boost with the passing of the George-Deen Act in 1936 and the George-Barden Act in 1946, both of which provided for the annual expenditure of federal funds in support of vocational education. The George-Barden Law, …

A Study Of Administrative Policies And Procedures For Girls' Physical Education In Selected Secondary Schools Of Southern Utah, Ann L. Lamb

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Each person in education from the Commissioner of Education down to the classroom teacher is concerned with administration. Each has administrative duties. The way these duties are conducted and carried out will have a direct influence on the outcome of any physical education program and each child within this program.

Through the Tenth Amendment responsibility for the administration of education has been turned over to the various states. Most of the states through their constitutions place the responsibility upon the legislature to provide for organization and maintenance of public school systems. This body then draws up the statutory laws and …

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

This study is an attempt to search out and define, where possible, certain basic concepts in the educational philosophy of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints during its first century from 1830 to 1930. Commonly known as the Mormon Church, the membership numbered approximately one million two hundred thousand in 1954. While concentrated largely in the Western United States area, it has many congregations across the United States and scattered in countries throughout the world. Showing an active interest in education, the Church has sponsored a program both formal and informal in nature. This program, with its accompanying …

Additional Studies On The Effect Of Field Applications Of Insecticides On Honey Bees, F. V. Lieberman, George E. Bohart, G. F. Knowlton, William P. Nye

All PIRU Publications

Choice of an insecticide treatment to be used on a legume seed crop in bloom should be determined by its hazard o bees as well as its economic effectiveness in controlling harmful insects. This is true not only because bees provide the cross-pollination essential to high yield of quality seed but also because most beekeepers still depend on a honey crop for their living.

In 1947 the staff of the U.S. Legume Seed Research Laboratory at Logan, Utah, initiated a study to ascertain which of the principal new organic insecticides could be applied to seed alfalfa in bloom without creating …

Relative Curricular Emphasis In Some Utah High Schools During The 1941-1951 Years, Edward W. Payne

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

To have a sound and complete philosophy of education is a relative must for all people concerned with the teaching of children. Fortunate is the school whose administration and faculty have in common a functional definition of the term "curriculum" and its place in their total philosophy of education. The school program of only a few decades ago consisted of the strict disciplinary type of teaching, with only a few available subjects which were intended to develop the total capacities of the student. The new philosophy recognizes the variation in students as individuals. One must not assume that there is …

A Comparison Of Formulae In The Manufacture Of Ice Milk, Glen Wilford Sargent

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Ice milk is not a new product in the ice cream industry. Rather it is one that has gained only little popularity, except in the preparation of "malts" and "milk shakes"; however, within the last decade the gallonage of ice milk produced has more than doubled.

Ice milk has been relatively unimportant because of the difficulty of obtaining a product with acceptable quality. In recent years progressive ice milk manufacturers and research workers have discovered new ingredients and processing procedure that seem to produce favorable results.

This low-fat product has several merits that justify its recent popularity, such as low …

The Use Of Trap Trees For The Control Of The Engelmann Spruce Beetle, Dendroctonus Engelmanni Hopkins, David Mccomb

Biology

Several destructive outbreaks of the Engelmann spruce beetle in the Rocky Mountains have been reported since the turn of the century. A severe outbreak in the Sierra Blanca Mountains of New Mexico several years prior to 1907 was reported by Hopkins (1909). Hopkins in 1909 also found evidence of an epidemic that occurred about 50 years prior to that date on the Pike National Forest, and one 20 years prior to 1909 on the White River National Forest, both in Colorado. He also reported much damage on the Manti National Forest in Utah during 1905. A later epidemic, beginning about …

This thesis traces the growth and development of the Division of Technology at the Utah State Agricultural College from 1890, when the first mechanic arts classes were taught as part of the offering in Mechanical Engineering, to the present, covering as thoroughly as possible from the source material available, the chain of events out of which the present expansive and complex program has evolved. The intention here is not merely to itemize the steps in this development, but wherever possible to investigate the influences involved; also, to give some attention to the industrial, education, and war-time needs that have created …

Consumptive Use Of Water By Major Farm Crops In The Milford District Of Utah, Glen H. Calder

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Irrigation water supplies in the arid West have become limited, yet the area of irrigable land is still extensive. To realize the more efficient use of the available supply, or for planning new irrigation projects, studies are needed to determine how much water is consumptively used by farm crops and native vegetation.

The Beginnings Of Settlement In Cache Valley, Joel Edward Ricks

Faculty Honor Lectures

In our picturesque valley, virtually surrounded by mountains, watered by beautiful streams, filled · with rich soil, and covered by willows, sagebrush, and plentiful grasses, inhabited by beaver and other wild animals, the trapper, the explorer, and the pioneer found the answer to their quest for beauty and the search for an abundant living.

The Origin Of The Utah State Agricultural College, Joel E. Ricks

Joel Ricks Collection

In 1888, Representative Anthon H. Lund of Sanpete County introduced the bill to create a college in Utah. The idea of education for the people of rural Utah came to him while he was on a mission to Denmark. July 29, 1889 upon the sagebrush and wild grass-covered bench of Old Lake Bonneville, high enough above the valley to provide a marvelous view, the founders laid the cornerstone of a building to be used for the education of western democracy - a rural college for the masses.
