Effects Of Reserpine (Serpasil) On Bloat, Edward P. Michalewicz Jan 1960

Effects Of Reserpine (Serpasil) On Bloat, Edward P. Michalewicz

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Farmers and ranchers have been faced with the problem of bloat for many centuries. Thus far there has been little concrete evidence form research in determining the cause, finding a cure or a preventive for bloat. Numerous preventives for bloat have been practically useless. Investigators have used oils and paraffin’s as prophylactic and therapeutic measure against legume bloat. Antibiotics have been used as preventatives with some success, antifoaming agents have little effect and are of short duration. Tranquilizers, a comparatively a new group of compounds, have produced spectacular results in combatting stress conditions in animals. The ideal effect of tranquilizers …


Some Limnological Conditions Relative To Winter Kill Of Fish In Ice-Covered Representative Farm Ponds In Eastern South Dakota, Jerome L. Johnson Jan 1960

Some Limnological Conditions Relative To Winter Kill Of Fish In Ice-Covered Representative Farm Ponds In Eastern South Dakota, Jerome L. Johnson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An aquatic environment involves many complex relationships biologically, physically, and chemically. Many of these relationships are difficult to measure or are little understood. In nature, aquatic environments accommodate many types of aquatic life. Ecological disturbances may cause the environment to become unfit for economically important forms of life. Human interferences often causes polluted waters and naturally occurring disturbances are common. A disturbance of this kind is one of the major problems of fisheries management in the northern Great Plains area – seasonal anaerobosis of fish or other aquatic animals and plants, commonly known as winter kill. Winter kill is usually …

Physiological Studies On Bloat, Clarence Leonard Moore Feb 1959

Physiological Studies On Bloat, Clarence Leonard Moore

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Bloat is a complex and confusing syndrome involving an interaction of plant and animal factors. Many “toxic” principles of plants have been incriminated either by directly inhibiting rumen motility and eructation or indirectly by changing the physical characteristics of the rumen ingests. Variations in anatomical structures, activity of such structures and microbiological activity all might be animal factors which are involve. The development of the livestock industry and the use of legumes in pasture programs have grown very rapidly during the past decade. Recent studies have been directed towards the biochemical constituents of legumes that might contribute to bloat. Attention …


A Study Of Factors Influencing Weaning Weights Of Beef Calves, Joe Allen Minyard Feb 1959

A Study Of Factors Influencing Weaning Weights Of Beef Calves, Joe Allen Minyard

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The ability of the cow to wean a heavy, vigorous and good quality calf every year is probably the most important economic trait in a beef cattle enterprise. But wide variations in the weaning weight of beef calves exist in almost every herd. These variations persist despite possible continued selection and general improvement and form the basis for further genetic improvement of the trait. Background information necessary for the development of effective herd improvement programs include knowledge of (1) the variability present in the performance traits, (2) the relative importance of heredity on the expression of the traits, and (3) …

Nesting Of Mourning Doves In Eastern South Dakota, Lloyd E. Oldenburg

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The mourning dove¹, not presently a game bird in South Dakota, is gaining support toward that status. During the 1959 state legislative season a bill sponsored by the Department of Game, Fish and Parks to place the mourning dove on the game bird list was passed by the House and defeated by the Senate. In a special dove issue of Outdoor California, January 1959, W.K. Kiel (9) stated there are currently 30 states which allow dove hunting. No state bordering South Dakota has an open dove season. However, in a special memorandum of March 7, 1958, the Nebraska Game, Forestation …

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Evaluation Of Final Weight In The Selection Of Performance Tested Bulls, Delwyn D. Dearborn Jan 1959

Evaluation Of Final Weight In The Selection Of Performance Tested Bulls, Delwyn D. Dearborn

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Selection of herd sires, in the past, by the beef breeders in South Dakota has primarily been based on type. In general, the beef breeder has attempted to purchase the bull with the most attractive conformation based on his personal judgement. This method of selection has brought limited progress to the largest industry in South Dakota from which 35% of the cash farm income is derived. The purpose of this study was to check the feasibility of using final weight as a criterion in the selection of performance tested bulls. The other phases of the study concerned final weight as …

Wildlife Utilization Of Stock Ponds In Minnehaha County, South Dakota, James D. Swanson Jan 1959

Wildlife Utilization Of Stock Ponds In Minnehaha County, South Dakota, James D. Swanson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Introduction: Man’s agricultural activities in South Dakota have greatly altered environmental conditions for nearly all forms of wildlife. Draining and ditching in eastern South Dakota have decreased the acreage of wetlands available to waterfowl and furbearers. Results of conversation practices carried out under the Agricultural Conservation Program as reported by the U. S. Department of Agriculture (1) show that between 1936 and 1937 South Dakota farmers had drained 760,198 acres. Drainage of wetland areas changed once valuable wildlife habitat into drylands which are of little value to waterfowl and furbearers. Waterfowl breeding grounds have been so greatly reduced that few …
