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. 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 …

The Effect Of Alternate Freezing And Thawing On Impermeable Alfalfa And Dodder Seeds, A. R. Midgley

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

It is surprising to know the small amount of work that has been done on alternate freezing and thawing of seeds. Many experiments, however, have been conducted to see the effect of very low temperatures on seeds and to notice the effect it had on their vitality. Some experimenters subjected seeds to temperatures as low as liquid hydrogen with very interesting results but in very few cases, if any, was the effect of alternate freezing and thawing studied.

The work that follows deals directly with the effects of alternate freezing and thawing on impermeable seeds of alfalfa and of dodder. …

Correlation Studies In Wheat, Joseph Reed

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Considerable work has been done by plant breeders and investigators in the study of individual plant characters, but only a few have attempted to work out correlations between characters in crop plants. One reason for this seems to be, that many investigators have felt that correlation studies were of very little practical value. This attitude was due perhaps to the interpretation given correlation data, especially the nature of the casual agency or agencies to which the correlation was attributed. Most of our plant breeders however, have been too busy working on experiments with single characters and have given little or …

The Effect Of Hydrogen Ion Concentration Of Solution Upon The Absorption Of Water By The Hard Seed Of Alfalfa, A. L. Starr

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The hard seed coat found on some seeds has long been an object of interest to experimentors in seed germination and a great deal of work has been done on various phases of the problem. Some have attacked it with the idea of hastening germination, while others have been interested in determining the nature of the seed coat and isolating the factors which make it impermeable under ordinary favorable germination conditions.

A Study Of The Reading Habits Of Adults, Burton K. Farnsworth

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

For several years past, some of the best students of americancolleges have been graduating with a major in English; and have gone forth full of hope and enthusiasm to perfect the oral and written expression of Young America, and to implant in them a taste for, and an appreciation of, worthwhile literature. While there can be no doubt that the training of teachers has steadily improved, and the time allotted to the study of English has constantly increased; yet critics say, and people generally believe them, that young America is still untaught. These critics declare that altho our boys and …

Bulletin No. 192 - Biennial Report Of The Director: For The Years 1923 And 1924

UAES Bulletins

No report (either annual or biennial) of the work of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station has been published separately since 1906. There has been so much inquiry regarding the present status of research projects that a brief report at this time is considered opportune. The report is an attempt to give the reader a brief but concise and comprehensive survey of the research work now under way at the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station as well as a brief description of the work being attempted on each of the experimental farms.

The Movement Of Ground Water And Its Relation To The Drainage Of Irrigated Lands, Ernest O. Larson

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

One needs but to review the history of the irrigated projects of the West to see clearly the importance of drainage. Since the passing of the Reclamation Act in 1902, the construction of drainage work by the United States Reclamation Service on seventeen projects located in thirteen western states represents about 12 percent of the expenditures from the Reclamation Fund. The portion for drainage has been spent during the last few years. This work has required an annual expenditure of about $1,000,000 or a total of $8,000,000 to July, 1922⁽¹⁾. The work completed is estimated to have reclaimed …

Circular No. 47 - Celery Culture For Utah, T. H. Abell

UAES Circulars

At one time practically all the celery consumed in Utah was shipped from California and eastern states. It was soon discovered, however, that celery could be raised in Utah, and as the population increased more and more acres were utilized in the production of this crop. Very little found its way to the outside markets, but what little did get out was well received because of its very high quality. Men who travel say that "Utah Celery" on the menu on trains and in hotels means the best there is in celery.

Within recent years several carloads have been shipped …
