The Effect Of Radioactive Phosphorus On The Histology Of The Rat Testis, Robert H. Peterson

Biology

The first account of radiation damage to male germinal tissue was published in 1903 by Albers-Schoenberg, and stated only that rabbits were made sterile by repeated exposure to X-ray irradiation. By 1925 numerous papers (Blanc, 1906; Barratt and Arnold, 1912; and Schinz and Slotopolsky, 1925) discussing the histological and cytological effects of irradiation on the testis had appeared. In 1928 Lacassagne, Lattes, and Fournier, using uranium x as an external source of beta radiation, reported damage to the testis of the same nature as that caused by X-ray irradiation (2). Within a few years internal irradiation of testis tissue was …

Social Status Of The Male Teacher In The Utah Rural Elementary Schools, Morris M. Miller

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Prior to 1820 the teaching profession in the United States was composed predominantly of men.

Cultural Variations Of Child Rearing Practices Among The Mormons Of Brigham City, Utah, Nile D. Meservy

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The family is the basic institution of society. It is within the family that the individual develops his basic points of view and achieves a pattern of adjustment toward life.¹

One of the most strategic factors in the family setting, insofar as personality development is concerned, is the parental-child relationship. Although it is evident that this relationship plays a great part in the socialization of the child, much remains to be understood concerning the underlying conditions within the family that affect his relationship.

It is the view of this study that the parent-child relationship varies in nature from family …

The Effect Of Feeding Sucrose To Beef And Swine On The Percentage Of Carbohydrate, Ph, Color, Texture, And Flavor Of Muscle And Liver, Margaret B. Merkley

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Carbohydrates have long been a part of animal feeding rations. Grains are included in all animal feeding formulas. The by-products of sugar beets have been used for many years in livestock feeding (Kutish 1950b). The use of molasses in commercial feed mixes in 1899 made possible its extended use in animal feeding practices (Hall 1950).

Protein feeds for cattle are relatively high in price and not available in adequate supply. With these facts in mind Culbertson of Iowa State College set up experiments in 1950 to find out whether part or all of the protein supplement could be replaced with …

Enemies Of Aspen, Clyde M. Christensen, Ralph L. Anderson, A. C. Hodson, Paul O. Rudolf

Aspen Bibliography

So long as aspen was considered primarily a weed species, there was little concern over the enemies which might injure or destroy it. Sometimes these enemies were actually considered "blessings in disguise. Now, however, that aspen not only is the most abundant "but also one of the most widely utilized tree species in the Lake States, there is increasing interest in anything that may affect its future supply. For that reason this brief summary of information on the enemies of aspen has been assembled.

Mormon Colonization In Arizona, Joel E. Ricks

Joel Ricks Collection

While Mormon colonization was planned and initiated under Brigham Young, he died before his planned settlements could be well established. Thus it remained for the Quorum of the Twelve and Brigham Young's successor, John Taylor, to save the settlements already established and to expand the colonization of Arizona. Thus Brigham Young's colonial plans and efforts should be discussed as a part of the story of Mormon colonization. In the last three years of his life the great Mormon leader planned a magnificent colonization.

A Study Of The Type And Extent Of Hearing Loss Of Speech Defective Children In The Elementary Schools Of Cache County And Of The Logan City School Districts, Merlin J. Mecham

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Many articles and textbooks which have recently been written in the field of speech correction indicate that a high percent of all children who have speech defects also have a hearing deficiency. Some even say that a higher percent of these children have hearing deficiencies than do children who are normal in speech.

Because of the great interest which has been aroused in the nature of the problems of the speech defectives, and because of the desire which exists for them to be helped in their handicaps, there is a necessity for their problems to be understood as thoroughly as …

Logging Methods And Peeling Of Aspen, T. Schantz-Hansen

Fluctuations In Numbers Of Trichomonas Foetus Occuring In The Preputial Cavity Of Bulls, V. Reid Bishop

Biology

Since 1932 numerous and widely distributed papers on Trichomonas foetus and bovine trichomoniasis have appeared in the various scientific journals which demonstrate the importance of the disease and organism throughout the world. Prior to this period, most scientists and practitioners of veterinary medicine were of the opinion that practically all reproductive difficulties of an infectious nature occuring in cattle were caused by Brucella abortus. It is now established that Trichomonas foetus is an important organism in causing abortions and infertility in cattle.
