Effect Of Bicarbonate Ion And Root Aeration On Lime-Induced Chlorosis, Willard L. Lindsay

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Chlorosis in plants has been recognized as a devastating disease for over one-hundred and fifty years. It is easily recognized by a yellowing of the plant foilage and is associated with a reduced chlorophyll synthesis.

Chlorosis is found so frequently on calcareous soils that its cause is attributed at least in part to this soil factor. It is therefore referred to as lime-induced chlorosis. This type of chlorosis has become a serious problem, especially in many of the fruit-growing regions of Europe and the Western United States where the soils are calcareous. In Utah the disease is more destructive than …

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

In America the men of influence who have provided leadership to our country have always been concerned with the schooling of the nation's children because they have recognized education of the people to be a vital means of preserving and improving our democratic way of life. Our country's educators, in meeting their great responsibility, in turn have long been concerned with the improvement of educational methods and with the quality of teaching that is provided to these children.

A specific problem that has come to be recognized as one of great importance to the school systems and to the communities …

A Public Opinion Survey Of Ogden City Schools, Nolan R. Taylor

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Free men cannot be taught properly by slaves; courageous citizens cannot be properly educated by scared hired men. (1)

In Ogden, Utah, education is big business. With capital assets of approximately $8,000,000, a current budget of $3,065,000, a staff of 570 full-time employees, and an enrollment of 12,650 students (5), education ranks high insofar as its effects are felt by the citizenry of the community.

The administrative staff of Ogden schools feel the necessity of keeping informed on current opinions of school patrons concerning their schools. Being employed by the public, they are servants of the public; and the degree …

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

In-service growth has been defined as: “The growth which takes place after the teacher is on the job.” It is the continuation of the professional development which began during the preservice period of preparation.

This type of education is generally considered by school administrators as an integral part of any school program.

Cost Of Producing Broilers In Utah, 1951-1952, Thomas I. Gunn

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Broiler production in the United States and in Utah has become increasingly important in the last few years. It has developed from virtual nonexistence in 1930 to the point where it now produces more than half of the total chicken meat production. Growth has been especially rapid since 1934, when separate statistics on broiler production became available. In 1951, production was about 6 times that of 1940 and for the first time the number of broilers raised exceeded the number of chickens raised from farm production.

A Study Of Women's Participation And The Administration Of Intramural Sports In The Junior Colleges Of Utah, Pauline Fuller

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The movement for intramural sports has developed and expanded greatly in the past two decades. Much of this growth has been attained by hard and patient work through many years. The pioneer work now accomplished, intramural directors must still assume the responsibility of keeping their programs abreast of the times.

Intramural sports appeared in schools long before interscholastic athletics. Students associated themselves together in clubs and competed against each other. This student intramural competition increased until in 1913 Michigan and Ohio State each inaugurated a department of intramural athletics under the direction of one man who was expected to handle …

The Reaction Of Some Sodium Salts Of Fatty Acids And Benzoic Acid With Α-Bromobenzyl Cyanide, Richard W. Perkins

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Fife (4) and O'Shaughnessy (12) have made a series of di-esters by allowing the sodium salts of various fatty acids to react with ethyl monochloracetate according to the following equation:

RCO₂Na ≠ ClCH₂CO₂C₂H₅ ---------> RCO₂CH₂CO₂C₂H₅ ≠ NaCl .

The mechanism of the reaction appears to be ionic and to involve the attack of an RCO₂^- ion on the carbon atom to which the chlorine atom is attached. As the RCO₂^- approaches this carbon atom the chlorine atom moves …

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Fluorine released from industrial operations is eventually deposited on the surface of the earth, intercepted by plants, or absorbed in open bodies of water. the term fluorine as used in this thesis will be considered to refer to fluorine in combined form.

Industrial expansion has caused atmosphere pollution from fluorine in many parts of the United States. Utah County, Utah, is one of the affected area, and is the principal area of concern in this thesis.

In the spring of 1951, Utah Agricultural Experiment Station initiated a broad investigation on soil, water, plant, and animal problems arising from fluorine atmospheric …

Bulletin No. 359 - Broiler Production In Utah: An Economic Analysis, Earnest M. Morrison, Thomas I. Gunn

UAES Bulletins

The production of broilers in Utah has become increasingly important in the last few years. Data are not available prior to 1950 but in that year the gross income from the production of broilers was $629,000. In 1951 almost one and a half million broilers were produced bringing a gross income of $1,322,000 to Utah producers.

With the rapid growth in recent years has come a demand for information about this new industry from producers, prospective producers, processors of meat and feed, agricultural leaders, and agricultural advisers.
