Some Philosophical Implications Of Behaviorism., Harold Wayland Tribble
Some Philosophical Implications Of Behaviorism., Harold Wayland Tribble
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Psychology is the middle ground between philosophy and science. Philosophy deals with the interpretation of facts, with, a view to determining their ultimate cause. It is the search for knowledge of general principles--elements, powers, causes and laws--as explaining facts and existences. Science is systematized knowledge of facts, laws and proximate causes, gained and verified by exact observation. Science is the effort to show how laws operate, and how certain facts affect other facts. Philosophy seeks to show why laws operate as they do, and to discern what is the first fact. Science deals with the sequence of events and effects …
The Influence Of A High And Low Vitamin Content In Nutrition., Ruth Lovelace
The Influence Of A High And Low Vitamin Content In Nutrition., Ruth Lovelace
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In the bulk of experiments on animal feeding the Albino Rat has served as the experimental animal. It has been proved that any diet which brings about satisfactory growth in white rats will also cause a young child to grow satisfactorily. Therefore, much attention is given to the breeding of such rats for experimental and scientific use. In the earlier stages of experimental work it was found that a diet which contained sufficient protein material and which yielded the proper number of calories because of the fat, sugar, and starch present, was a satisfactory diet. Later investigations showed that animals …
The Education Of The Natural Man : A Study In The Political Philosophy Of J. J. Rousseau., Esther E. Mason
The Education Of The Natural Man : A Study In The Political Philosophy Of J. J. Rousseau., Esther E. Mason
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In these, the opening words of Emile, Rousseau admits us to a knowledge of one of the principles of his thought. Everything is good, he thinks, as it comes from the hand of God. It becomes bad through the interference of man with the work of nature. We might assume, then, that the interference is bad, and that man was better, more virtuous, before he was interfered with, or educated. And as a matter of fact, Rousseau found some such answer to the problem when it first presented itself to him. In Emile he finds another and more practical solution, …
A Study In The Metabolism Of The Adult Honey Bee, M. D. Farrar
A Study In The Metabolism Of The Adult Honey Bee, M. D. Farrar
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The study of metabolism in the higher forms of life has been carried on for many year and much has been found out that has been of great importance in understanding the way things live and grow. It has been only in the last few years that attention has been given to this phase of the work in insects. The extensive work that has been carried on concerning metabolism in men and animals is the basis for the more recent researches on the lower forms including the microorganisms. Before this work could be carried out on the small forms it …
Reconstruction In Kentucky., John W. Manning
Reconstruction In Kentucky., John W. Manning
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Reconstruction began in Kentucky somewhat sooner than in the States south of the Blue Grass Commonwealth. As soon as the invading Confederate army withdrew from the State in 1862, loyal Kentuckians began to prepare for peaceful pursuits and to restore the State, as best they could, to somewhat the position it occupied before the war between the states. Of course it was impossible to remake the State as it was before the struggle, but at least the civil authority could be restored, and the State prepared for the reign of peace. The dates 1862 to 1870 have been selected as …
The Relative Feeding Value Of Ground Soybeans And Soybean Oilmeal For Milk And Butterfat Production By The Dairy Cow, Harold J. Brooks
The Relative Feeding Value Of Ground Soybeans And Soybean Oilmeal For Milk And Butterfat Production By The Dairy Cow, Harold J. Brooks
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The development of the soybean to a crop of great importance the past few years has been more rapid, perhaps, than that of any other plant. Most particularly is this true of its rise in the United States. Figures from the U.S. Yearbook show that in 1917 there were only 460,000 acres of the crop planted for all purposes, this however representing a 50% increase over 1916. In 1924, 2,566,000 acres were planted for all purposes, and 1925 figures show a greater increase of 25%. Theacreage for seed production alone increased from 168,000 acres in 1919 to 452,000 acres in …
Sir Richard Steele, Reformer., H. Carter Davidson
Sir Richard Steele, Reformer., H. Carter Davidson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Because the critics of the eighteenth century admired form more than thought, Sir Richard Steele has been sadly neglected and all honours have been heaped upon his literary partner, Joseph Addison. Slowly the readers of the twentieth century are beginning to realize that Steele had all the originality, while Addison had nothing but polish. It is to present a few of the astoundingly original and influential ideas of Steele that this paper has been written. To the best of my knowledge after some extended search, the reforms of Richard Steele have not been treated, at least not in the manner …
The Effects Of Ice Cream In The Diet Of Young Life., Mildred A. Schneiderhan
The Effects Of Ice Cream In The Diet Of Young Life., Mildred A. Schneiderhan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Much work has been done in the past on the nutritional value in young life of different dairy products, all of which experiments have been carried to successful completion by various men at different times. There is, however, no published information demonstrating the comparative values resulting from experimental work in the nutritional value of ice cream as a supplementary diet in infant life. For the purpose of the following experiments, the albino rat, (Mus Norvegicus Albinus) and the Norway rat, (Mus Nor vegicus), together with Guinea Pigs and cats were used. It is a well-known fact that rats exhibit the …
Philippine Education Prior To Magellan., Morris Uberta Lively
Philippine Education Prior To Magellan., Morris Uberta Lively
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In studying the culture of any people we learn that no group has been absolutely independent of influences from other people. No man indeed can say that he has attained anything of value absolutely by himself; an individual must give credit to the contributions of other men, nations and races of people past and present. So must a nation glean its culture from that of other people. The Roman Empire is a splendid example of this gleaning of culture. Their culture came from contributions made by the Greeks, the Jews and from the people of northern Africa as well as …
The Neutrality Of Kentucky In 1861., Jennie Angell Mengel 1872-1934
The Neutrality Of Kentucky In 1861., Jennie Angell Mengel 1872-1934
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
During the year 1924 - 1925 a seminar on the Civil War in Kentucky was held in the University of Louisville under the direction of Dr. R. S. Cotterill of the Department of History. Among the subjects studied the Neutrality of the State in 1861 seemed to arouse the most discussion and the most divergent opinions. For this reason I have been interested in pursuing the subject further and in embodying the results of my study in this thesis. Most of the material on which the thesis is based has been presented to the seminar and been criticized by the …
A Chemical And Morphological Study Of Grindelia Squarrosa (Pursh) Dunal, Marcus A. Chase
A Chemical And Morphological Study Of Grindelia Squarrosa (Pursh) Dunal, Marcus A. Chase
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A species of Grindelia known as Gum, Rosin or Tar weed, is of common occurrence on dry banks and sandy soils in various parts of South Dakota. During day seasons it attains such a dense growth in closely cropped pastures that horses feeding in them have their heads and manes covered with a black tarry-like substance, and their fetlocks collects fairly large ball of this tarry mass. In dry years the development of the weed is so rapid that the grass in a closely cropped pasture may be nearly exterminated during a single season. A pasture may seem to be …
Quantitative Determination Of The Elements In The Nodes And Internodes Of Normal And Abnormal Corn Plants, Percy Danielson
Quantitative Determination Of The Elements In The Nodes And Internodes Of Normal And Abnormal Corn Plants, Percy Danielson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
During the last decade the annual loss due to corn rot diseases has been so great that much attention has been given this problem. These diseases, according to several authorities are caused by certain fungi and bacteria which live parasitically upon the corn plant and are known as root, stalk and ear rots. Several species are found on the seed and start growth as soon as the seed germinates. These same species are found living in the soil. When these organisms are found to be prevalent on the seed and in the soil all stages of growth in the corn …

The Effect Of Endocrines Upon Animal Behavior., J. Hubert Geyer
The Effect Of Endocrines Upon Animal Behavior., J. Hubert Geyer
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
It is not the primary purpose of this present work to treat the problem of the evolution of behavior, but rather to give an analysis of animal behavior as observed. These observations may appear as simple tests, but they make possible a new way to measure the capacity and determine the rate of learning by the animal mind. Progress in learning takes place through increased variety and precision of the movements brought about by stimulation and is very clearly observed in Amoeba, where we find the production of varied movements and the resolution of one physiological state into another. Thus …
The Relative Feeding Value Of Soybean Meal Compared To Linseed Meal As A Protein Supplement For Dairy Cows For Milk And Fat Production, And Their Effect On The Quality Of The Butter Fat, John R. Bollinger
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The expansion of the dairy industry to all parts of our country has caused further search for protein feeds suitable for dairy cattle, both from the standpoint of the cow, and as an economical feed. The dairy farmer has been urged to produce roughages high in protein, but these usually do not suffice to make a balanced ration for high producing cows. Oil meal, cottonseed meal, and gluten meal have long been used as supplements in grain mixtures and have given satisfactory results. These concentrates are produced in limited areas, hence must be shipped, which adds to their cost, besides …
The Influence Of The Diet Of The Cow And The Effect Of Heat Upon The Antiscorbutic Potency Of Milk, Lynn Copeland
The Influence Of The Diet Of The Cow And The Effect Of Heat Upon The Antiscorbutic Potency Of Milk, Lynn Copeland
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Inroduction: For a long time there has been a belief among scientific investigators and medical men that certain diseases, both of man and animal were the direct result of a faulty diet. In other words, something which was needed by the body for maintenance of growth and health was thought to be frequently lacking in the diet of man and animal. Attention was first called to these accessory substances thru investigations into the cause of the disease beri-beri. In 1884, the Japanese Navy, under the direction of Admiral Takaki, positively demonstrated that beri-beri was the result of a faulty diet, …
The Effect Of Condensed, Dry, And Fresh Milk In The Diet Of Albino Rats., John T. Walsh
The Effect Of Condensed, Dry, And Fresh Milk In The Diet Of Albino Rats., John T. Walsh
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Although much work has been done in determining the nutritional values of different milks, all of it has been carried on at different times by various men, and there is no published data demonstrating the relative values derived from experiments which were carried on simultaneously and in which all subjects were under the same conditions. It is well known that rats show the effect of conditions to which they are subjected very easily and respond to them in the same manner in which man does. They are therefore a fit subject for nutritional experimentation. The Albino rat lives three years …
Concerning The Degree Of Self Fertilization In Corn (Zea Mays Indentata) That Is Obtained Under Normal Field Conditions, George Janssen
Concerning The Degree Of Self Fertilization In Corn (Zea Mays Indentata) That Is Obtained Under Normal Field Conditions, George Janssen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
"Like begets like”. This well-known phrase which aroused so much comment among students in genetics and animal breeding has almost unconsciously become an adage to a part of their philosophy. Whatever truth or lack of it is associated with these words we admire the keenness of observation of him who wrote them. However significant the words "like begets like" could it be strictly adhered to our problem in breeding a cross-fertilized population would be greatly lessened. Much has been done in plant and animal breeding and the methods employed in accomplishing the greater part is without written history. Here and …
The Effect Of Diet Of The Cow And The Pasteurization Of Milk In Closed Bottles Upon The Nutritive And Antiscorbutic Properties Of Cows' Milk, George C. Biggar
The Effect Of Diet Of The Cow And The Pasteurization Of Milk In Closed Bottles Upon The Nutritive And Antiscorbutic Properties Of Cows' Milk, George C. Biggar
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Probably no discovery in the scientific world, and especially in the field of nutrition, has excited more interest in the past few years than the finding and naming of the three hitherto unknown food factors known as vitamins. For many years it has been observed that certain diets for man that apparently are satisfactory as far as their nutritive value is concerned, still seem to lack something necessary for normal growth and function, or else lead to some serious disease. For example it has been known for centuries that sailors on long ocean voyages where the diet consisted largely of …
A Chemical And Morphological Study Of Nicandra Physalodes (L) Pers., Anton Hogstad
A Chemical And Morphological Study Of Nicandra Physalodes (L) Pers., Anton Hogstad
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Among the various plants that have been placed under cultivation in the Medicinal and Poisonous Plant Investigations Gardens of the South Dakota state College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts School of Pharmacy, has been that of Nicandra Physalodes (L) Pers., commonly known as the Apple of Peru. This plant has been under cultivation in the gardens since 1918, the seed having been received from Professor E. L. Newcomb, Director of the University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy Drug Gardens, in the Fall of 1917. Professor Newcomb reports that the seed had been purchased from Haage and Schmidt, Erfurt, Germany, in …
George Meredith's Ideas Of Religion., Mary Ellis Duncan
George Meredith's Ideas Of Religion., Mary Ellis Duncan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Every man is to a greater or less degree a product of the influences surrounding his life. The more commonplace minds of the race, no doubt, are chiefly affected; and occasionally we find a man or woman of so keen an intellect, so striking an individuality, that it is difficult to trace the influence of his age upon him. Rather he becomes a power in forming the opinions of the next generation, stands in advance of his own period. Of this individualistic type if George Meredith, one of the greatest of the nineteenth century writers, if not foremost among them.
The Relation Between Man And Nature In Wordsworth's Poetry., Elizabeth Hoskins
The Relation Between Man And Nature In Wordsworth's Poetry., Elizabeth Hoskins
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
While democracy was developing, while men were seeking to reform national politics and to find some means by which the people might be represented justly in the government, a new movement entered into literature to give it a broadened scope and a deepened meaning. This was the philosophical movement, at times strongly influenced by a metaphysical spirit, which often "not only prescribed the form of poetry, but furnished it with its elements". (Taine, History of English Literature, p.87). The questions, What is the meaning of life? What is man, and what is his purpose in the world? turned the thoughts …
Cooperative Marketing Of Farm Products In South Dakota, Wendell Frichiof Kumlien
Cooperative Marketing Of Farm Products In South Dakota, Wendell Frichiof Kumlien
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: General Facts Underlying the Whole Problem of Distribution and Marketing of Farm Products Before entering into a detailed discussion of cooperative marketing of farm products as applied to South Dakota, I wish to briefly mention a few general historical facts which in a large part go to make up the background for the whole present day problem of distribution and marketing. 1. Pioneer America’s Agricultural Problems Mainly Those of Production During the period when our country was predominately agricultural, each farm produced practically everything it needed and was in the main self-sufficing. Each farmer produced his own wheat and …
Nitrogenous Constituents Of Condensed Milk, With Special Reference To Total Non-Protein Nitrogen, Urea Nitrogen And Uric Acid., Bess Burton Mathis
Nitrogenous Constituents Of Condensed Milk, With Special Reference To Total Non-Protein Nitrogen, Urea Nitrogen And Uric Acid., Bess Burton Mathis
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The most important non-protein nitrogenous constituents of milk are urea, creatinine, creatine, and uric acid. Urea is the diamide of carbonic acid and is the chief end-product, so far as nitrogen is concerned, of the physiological metabolism of the proteins of the foods and tissues. It has long been considered a matter of greatest importance to ascertain in what organ or tissues urea is formed. Investigations have gone so far as to demonstrate that it arises in part, at least, in the liver – that the liver cells are able to convert ammonium carbonate into urea which is then given …
Early Kentucky Intrigues Regarding The Mississippi River., Henri Reubelt Pearcy 1894-1987
Early Kentucky Intrigues Regarding The Mississippi River., Henri Reubelt Pearcy 1894-1987
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This paper is involved in a study of the intrigues of Kentuckians for the securing of the Mississippi River as a free waterway for the marketing of their produce and the consequent improvement of the condition of Kentuckians in every way. The conspiracies of such men as Blount and Burr have not been included because there was no real and vital connection of Kentuckians with their schemes. The intrigues of Wilkinson after the Spanish treating of 1795 were not involving Kentucky peculiarly but rather the Southwest, and they would not be properly included here. Evidence of complicity in intrigues on …
The Relation Of Pyruvic Acid To Carbohydrate Metabolism., Sylvester Louis Schulte
The Relation Of Pyruvic Acid To Carbohydrate Metabolism., Sylvester Louis Schulte
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
It is known that carbohydrates on oxidation break into fragments which later are oxidised, or reduced, according as the conditions of the bodily functioning may favor, and it is in this process or reaction of the carbohydrate molecule that the formation of pyruvic acid probably takes place. From this point the pyruvic acid molecule on being fully oxidised would give the products carbon dioxide and water, and partial oxidation would give carbon dioxide and other products.

The Crow Creek Indian Reservation is located in South Dakota, bordering the east side of the Missouri River, about forty miles below Pierre, the Capital. In fact, a part of Hughes county lies in the Big Bend District of the reservation, and the south end of Hyde County and the west end of Buffalo County make up the rest of it - in all 313,304,23 acres or 489.5 square miles - about 13.5 townships. Parallel 44° North Latitude cuts the southern part of the Reservation, while meridian 99° West Longitude is just east of it. The nearest rail road point …
Some Aspects Of Madison Cawein's Poetry., Julia C. King
Some Aspects Of Madison Cawein's Poetry., Julia C. King
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
After a careful study of Madison Cawein's poetry, and comparing his views on religion and philosophy with those of some of the great English poets, Wordsworth, Shelley, Byron, Tennyson and Browning, I shall summarize them as follows, and treat each subject by comparison with these writers and with selections from his and their poems, substantiating these statements: 1. Cawein's conception of God is That God is the Fountain of all Mind, Beauty, Truth and Love. 2. His Poetry Embodies the Idea of Pantheism. 3. His Poetry Teaches the Evolution of the Soul. 4. His Poetry Expressed the Platonic Philosophy of …
