Food Habits Of Black Crappies, White Crappies, Yellow Perch And White Suckers In A Small Impoundment In Northeastern South Dakota, Dennis Unkenholz
Food Habits Of Black Crappies, White Crappies, Yellow Perch And White Suckers In A Small Impoundment In Northeastern South Dakota, Dennis Unkenholz
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Crustaceans, aquatic insects and fish were the most important food items found in stomach samples. Black crappies depended on zooplankton and aquatic insects as their major food source as they occurred in all samples and were major food items in 70 percent and 40 percent respectively. Insects, zooplankton and fish were the major food items of white crappies. Insects were the dominant forage present in 54 percent of the samples while zooplankton and fish were dominant in 36 percent and 21 percent of the samples respectively. Perch relied on crayfish, fish and aquatic insects as their major food source. Aquatic …
A Characterization Of Four Prairie Grasses, Carolyn A. Cogswell
A Characterization Of Four Prairie Grasses, Carolyn A. Cogswell
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Even though native range forages have been available a long time, there is little research data concerning the specific grasses characterized as native forage or browse. Little research has been done to study these forages because of their natural habitat far from research laboratories, the task of collecting enough forage for adequate sample testing, and sparse yet hardy existence and questionable known vegetative growth with each year's different climate and environmental conditions. Certainly it seems logical that at some future time the knowledge of their nutritive value will become important. Perhaps then with adequate management the rancher can improve upon …
Pasture Supplementation Of Beef Cattle Followed By Drylot Finishing With High-Concentrate Rations And Antibiotic Supplement, Cecil R. Graber
Pasture Supplementation Of Beef Cattle Followed By Drylot Finishing With High-Concentrate Rations And Antibiotic Supplement, Cecil R. Graber
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The objectives of the research reported in this thesis were to determine the effects of various levels of pasture grain feeding on pasture weight gains as well as on subsequent gains and feed requirements in drylot. The value of an antibiotic was tested at various levels to determine the effects in rapidly getting cattle on full feed of a high-concentrate ration. The effects of the various levels of the antibiotic were also studied when administered for five consecutive days at monthly intervals throughout the experiment.
Effects Of Delactosed Whey, Skim Milk, And Sugar On Ration Palatability And Performance Of Early Weaned Pigs, Larry A. Hauser
Effects Of Delactosed Whey, Skim Milk, And Sugar On Ration Palatability And Performance Of Early Weaned Pigs, Larry A. Hauser
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
There has been much interest in the possibility and feasibility of weaning pigs at an early age with attempts to wean pigs as early as one to two hours post-partum. Most workers, however, have concentrated their studies upon weaning at two to four weeks of age. When pigs are weaned at this early age, it is important to utilize feedstuffs that will result in an economical, highly palatable, starter diet that will provide rapid and efficient pig gains. Therefore, the diet must provide all of the essential nutrients in a readily available form and at a cost which is not …
Ovine Body Composition As Influenced By Live Weight, Wallace Jon Koester
Ovine Body Composition As Influenced By Live Weight, Wallace Jon Koester
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Breeders are looking today for larger, growthier animals which will produce a fast gaining market lamb. The market animals must be able to reach a desirable weight with a correct amount of finish. The weight at which these lambs are marketed influences average daily gain and feed efficiency. This market weight often depends upon the availability and cost of feed. When market prices look favorable for the future, the producer tends to put additional weight on his lambs in order to obtain a greater total return. The producer is usually encouraged to market his products at weights which maximize feed …
Effects Of Feeding Leptaden To Dairy Cows, Sitakantha Dash
Effects Of Feeding Leptaden To Dairy Cows, Sitakantha Dash
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Leptaden is a herbal drug which was recently introduced to the market by Alarsin Pharmaceuticals, Bombay, India. It consists of the extracts of two indigenous medical plants, namely Leotadenia reticulata (Jeevanti) and Breynia patens (Kamboji) in equal proportions. In 1947, Patel first drew the attention of gynaecologists to the usefulness of Leptaden in habitual abortions and allied conditions in women and later on pointed out its lactogenic and galactagogue properties. His original observations are supported by growing clinical experience over a twenty year period of medical practice. Published clinical experience shows that in most cases Leptaden stimulates, lactation within twelve …
Temperature Computer Measurements, Production And Carcass Traits Of Individually Fed Weight Constant Steers, Lowell M. Anderson
Temperature Computer Measurements, Production And Carcass Traits Of Individually Fed Weight Constant Steers, Lowell M. Anderson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
During 1968, 29 Hereford steers were individually fed and marketed at one of seven constant weight classes from approximately 386 to 522 kg at intervals of 22.7 kg. During 1970, 21 Angus and Hereford crossbred steers were individually fed and marketed at one of four constant weight classes from approximately 386 to 522 kg at intervals of approximately 45.0 kg. The amounts of edible portion, trimmed fat, removed bone and the summation of the kidney, pelvic, and cod fat were determined on the steers of both years. In 1970 two experiments examined the usefulness of an analog computer for calculation …
The Effects Of Acute Ammonia Toxicity On Certain Homogram Parameters In Sheep, William C. Kirkpatrick
The Effects Of Acute Ammonia Toxicity On Certain Homogram Parameters In Sheep, William C. Kirkpatrick
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Due to the rapidly expanding human population, one of the greatest problems facing agricultural scientists is the development of adequate food resources to meet the growing demand for quality protein. The development of more economical and higher quality feed for ruminant animals is essential since they are one of man's primary sources of animal protein. Microorganisms in the ruminant stomach convert relatively cheap non-protein nitrogen compounds into bacterial proteins, which are digested, absorbed, and utilized by the host animal. Urea, a common non-protein nitrogen compound, is hydrolyzed into ammonia and carbon dioxide by bacterial urease. When urea is hydrolyzed faster …
The Use Of Iodine And Chlormadinone Acetate To Suppress Sexual Maturity In Chickens, Curtis Eldon Holmquist
The Use Of Iodine And Chlormadinone Acetate To Suppress Sexual Maturity In Chickens, Curtis Eldon Holmquist
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Researchers, for several years, have tried various methods of retarding the onset of egg production in chickens. Some reports have shown that a delay in sexual maturity is beneficial. When comparing restricted pullets to unrestricted control groups, these reports reveal economic advantages of restriction in that restricted pullets have lower total feed costs, improved egg size, improved total egg production and a lower percentage of mortality during the production cycle. Other research has accomplished restriction with no resulting advantages. These discrepancies may be due, in part, to inaccurate means by which the results of restriction have been measured. Confinement rearing …
Various Forms Of Dehydrated Alfalfa In High-Concentrate Cattle Finishing Diets, Jerry D. Burkhardt
Various Forms Of Dehydrated Alfalfa In High-Concentrate Cattle Finishing Diets, Jerry D. Burkhardt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Even though growing and finishing beef cattle have been fed satisfactorily on all-concentrate diets, in many instances weight gains have been improved and management problems reduced by including some conventional form of roughage in the diet. The most efficient level of roughage will likely be a variable factor depending upon a number of things including weight and condition of the cattle and. nature of the roughages and concentrates. It is a well-established fact that .as the energy content of the diet increases the rate of gain increases and the feed required per unit of gain decreases. In addition to rate …
The Effects Of Erythropoietin, Dibenzyline, And Iron Dextran On The Hemogram Of Doe And Fetal Rabbits, Eugene Austin Gardner
The Effects Of Erythropoietin, Dibenzyline, And Iron Dextran On The Hemogram Of Doe And Fetal Rabbits, Eugene Austin Gardner
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The iron deficiency anemia found particularly in swine has a high incidence in the newborn. The nutrition of the sow inversely affects progression of the anemia. Newborn nutritional status, also, inversely augments the anemic condition. The anemia does not become apparent in the newborn until a few days following parturition. There is a drastic decrease in iron availability with succeeding decreases in normal hemoglobin formation and mature red blood cell formation. An important factor along with these conditions is susceptibility to disease leading to death. A gradual return to normal follows if the newborn survives the anemic period. This condition …

Partial Cooling Of The Environment In Free Stalls For Sows During Farrowing And Lactation, Thomas R. Gannon
Partial Cooling Of The Environment In Free Stalls For Sows During Farrowing And Lactation, Thomas R. Gannon
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Many of the technological advances in the swine industry have resulted in increased capital requirements for buildings and equipment. This has made multiple farrowing, including summer farrowing, a near necessity. Hog farmers recognize the problem of sow mortality due to severe heat stress during periods of high ambient temperatures, and hog producers utilizing the free stall farrowing system recognize yet another problem, that of poor stall occupancy. Sows in this type of system tend to seek relief by leaving their stalls and lying in moist or breezy areas. This decreased stall occupancy has resulted in pigs being severely neglected, reduced …
Fred Hayden Carruth : Author And Journalist, 1862-1932, Barbara S. Hartinger
Fred Hayden Carruth : Author And Journalist, 1862-1932, Barbara S. Hartinger
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study was undertaken to compile information about Fred Hayden Carruth during the period of his life-time, 1862-1932, his activity as author and journalist forming the guidelines. Carruth's success as a western humorist and local journalist on two Dakota Territory weeklies, the Estelline Bell and the Dakota Bell, was probably the factor which helped him obtain a position as a humorous editorial witer with the New York Tribune, foremost paper in the country in 1888. He went on his own in 1892 and after free-lancing his way onto the pages of more than nineteen popular periodicals, Carruth began a thirty-four …

Effects Of An Appetite Suppressant And Exercise Upon Selected Physiological And Anthropometric Measurements In Overweight College Women, Jo Ann Krause
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Leaders in the field of physical education constantly urge that programs of physical education be based on the needs of all students. Educators have the professional obligation to develop special programs to meet the unique requirements of the individual. One individualized program is for the overweight and the complications both physical and emotional which result from it should be of immediate concern in the planning of the physical education curriculum. However, there is evidence that the best interests of the overweight student have for the most part been overlooked, Programs to combat overweight should be constructed to include physical exercise …
Man And Nature In Herman Melville's "The Encantadas", Jay J. Jackson
Man And Nature In Herman Melville's "The Encantadas", Jay J. Jackson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
It is in light of the fact that no critic has yet seen fit to explore "The Encantadas" with regard to Melville's theme of the man-nature dialectic that this thesis is written. It is the purpose of this paper to show how Melville views man, nature, and their relationship to each other within the bizarre setting of the Galapagos Islands. In no other work save Moby-Dick does Melville so deeply cut to the roots of the question of man and his role in the natural scheme of the cosmos. In order to examine the man-nature tension of "The Encantadas," I …
