Bulletin No. 335 - Reclamation Of Saline-Alkali Soils By Leaching: Delta Area, Utah, R. C. Reeve, L. E. Allison, D. F. Peterson Jr.

UAES Bulletins

Salinity is a problem of irrigation agriculture and is recognized as a serious threat to crop production in the Western States. All water used for irrigation, whether diverted from surface stream or pumped from wells, contains dissolved salts in amounts varying from a few hundred pounds to several tons per acre-foot (8,23). Salts accumulating in the root zone of the soil, as water is removed by crop and by surface evaporation eventually, may restrict crop yields. Extensive areas of land in the Western States, which were at one time productive under irrigation, have been abandoned because of the development of …

Bulletin No. 334 - Costs And Returns From Peach Production: Selected Areas, Utah, Earnest M. Morrison

UAES Bulletins

Peach production in Utah is an important fruit enterprise. Preliminary estimates place Utah's 1947 peach crop at about 933,000 bushels, valued at about $1,679,000. This is equal to about 1.2 percent of the value of all agricultural commodities produced in the state, and about 27 percent of the value of Utah's fruit crop. The 1947 peach crop was, however, about 27 percent, or 200,000 bushels larger than the ten-year average, 1937 to 1946, and was the second largest crop on record in the last thirty years. In terms of value the 1947 crop was exceeded only by the crops of …

Aspen Lumber Grades And Characteristics, Zigmond A. Zasada

Aspen Bibliography

While most hardwood and softwood lumber usually is graded, aspen lumber is not. On the contrary, it is usually sold by the sawmill to the wood manufacturing plant on a mill-run basis. Plants which saw aspen lumber for their own use rarely apply standard grades in sorting the lumber. They usually separate the "usable" from the "cull" lumber, basing their grade breakdown upon the minimum quality acceptable in their manufacturing process. Manufacturers who use only certain grades of aspen lumber, and who buy it on the open market, have been unable to locate sources from which graded aspen lumber is …

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

Aspen Bibliography

The logging of forest products is influenced by many factors, including the size of the trees, density of the stand, the soundness of the trees, size of the area logged, topography and soil, weather conditions, the degree of utilization, the skill of the logger and the equipment used, the distance from market, etc. Each of these factors influences not only the method of logging but also the costs. The purpose of this paper is not to cover in detail the effect of each of these variations, but to deal with some of the major problems typical to logging aspen. Well …

Bulletin No. 331 - Cost And Efficiency Of Canning Pea Production In Cache And Box Elder Counties, Utah, Earnest M. Morrison

UAES Bulletins

The production of field peas for canning purposes has played an important part in Utah's agriculture, furnishing some of the intensity needed on her small farms. Peas are a crop that can be handled largely with the labor of the operator and his family and has not required any specialized machinery for their production. They are a suitable alfalfa nurse crop and in most areas do not compete greatly with other crops grown for the farmer's time.

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.

Some Factors Affecting Hatchability In Turkey Eggs, Dean Charles Fletcher

Biology

Low hatchability of eggs in some breeds of turkeys has long been a serious problem among turkey raisers over the entire United States. The average hatchability is approximately 65 per cent in all breeds; however, in the broad-breasted bronze variety the hatchability is only 47 per cent (1). In the Intermountain areas those hatches are appreciably lower (2). The broad-breasted bronze turkey is one of the larger breeds and is one of the best-selling varieties. Due to the initial high cost of turkey eggs (35 to 48 cents each) and the high mortality during incubation, considerable sums of money have …

The Life History And Control Of Sheep Tick, Melophagus Ovinus (Linn.), In Northern Utah, Ted Tibbetts

Biology

The sheep tick, Melophagus ovinus (Linn.), is a serious ectoparasite of sheep in the sheep raising areas of Utah. Unless a more effective method of control is developed, this insect pest will continue to cause appreciable losses to the producer. Sheep ticks feed upon the blood of their hosts causing great irritation and discomfort and reduced vitality. Sheep are often so annoyed by this pest that they refuse to eat normally. This results in retardaton of growth and impairment of the best health and condition for tick-infested sheep. The sheep tick is suspected of transmitting the disease organisms, Rickettsia melophaga …
