Factor Analysis As A Tool In Identifying Some Factors Affecting The Structure Of The Fluid Milk Processing Industry In South Dakota, Chong H. Lee
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Like all levels of the dairy industry, the market structure and the competitive conditions in the processing and distribution of fluid milk in South Dakota have undergone substantial changes in the past two decades. The major structural changes have been the decline in the number of fluid milk processing plants and the expansion of the remaining plants. These changes in structure have resulted in a changed pattern of distribution for fluid milk. In the past years, fluid milk was distributed only in areas in close proximity to the plants, and a high percentage of the milk was delivered directly to …
Flavor Factors Involved In Acceptability Of Carp For Human Consumption, Clarice E. Shank
Flavor Factors Involved In Acceptability Of Carp For Human Consumption, Clarice E. Shank
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Carp constitutes one of South Dakota's relatively untapped natural resources. Mis-named a trash fish, it represents a largely unappreciated source of high biological protein food. Little research has been developed to date concerning this vigorous and adaptable fresh-water fish. In Asian and European countries the carp has long been cultivated as a desirable food fish. Introduced into the waters of this country however, the carp competed so successfully against game fish that it soon lost favor. Methods for eliminating carp from lakes and rivers have proved only partially effective. Prejudice against carp as a desirable food fish has continued to …
A Study Of Protein Content And Its Relationships To Other Phenotypic Characters In Iterspecific Oat Crosses, Leroy A. Spilde
A Study Of Protein Content And Its Relationships To Other Phenotypic Characters In Iterspecific Oat Crosses, Leroy A. Spilde
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Plant hybridizers in the past century depended primarily upon the crossing of cultivars with superior agronomic and quality characteristics as a method of improving yield potential of hybrids and derived pure lines. The hybridizer is continually faced with · the challenge of finding genetic sources of resistance to diseases which cause reduction in yie1d and often lower grain qua1ity. Often there is no known superior source of resistance within the species. This has motivated a search of species related to common oats, Avena sativa L., as sources for developing resistance in cultivated varieties. Concern is intensifying over the rapidly expanding …
An Experiment On The Effects Of Humidity On Screen-Process Stencils, Thomas R. Bresadola
An Experiment On The Effects Of Humidity On Screen-Process Stencils, Thomas R. Bresadola
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Quality control is management, it is a way of thinking. To function properly, it cannot be isolated in one section of the plant, but rather it must permeate the entire climate of the plant. Management is control through decision making. Decision making requires accurate and complete information, if errors are to be avoided. The quality of the information on which decisions are based determines the quality of the decisions themselves. Quality may be defined by stating what is acceptable, and what is not acceptable. Quality used in this sense varies greatly from plant to plant. The company printing slogans on …
Attitudes Of Farm Operators In Four South Dakota Counties Toward The Conservation Of A Natural Resource, Charles Thomas Fortney
Attitudes Of Farm Operators In Four South Dakota Counties Toward The Conservation Of A Natural Resource, Charles Thomas Fortney
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Attitudinal differences among farm operators were studied in relation to wetlands, drainage, and waterfowl production within selected sections of four South Dakota counties. The counties involved were Marshall, Day, Codington and Brookings. The interview schedule which was used included personal, social, and economic characteristics of the farm operator and his farm operation. Also included were a series of knowledge and attitude questions pertaining to wetlands, drainage, and waterfowl production. Through the use of a Likert-type scale, the degree of favorableness toward 26 statements in relation to wetlands, drainage, and waterfowl production was recorded. The independent variables which were used in …

Pheasant Use And Waterfowl Production On State And Private Lands, Charles R. Elliott
Pheasant Use And Waterfowl Production On State And Private Lands, Charles R. Elliott
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Ring-necked pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) use on state-owned game production areas was compared to that on privately-owned areas in east-central South Dakota. Four 80-acre and four 160-acre tracts of state lands were paired with private areas of the same size having the same amount of wetland and were selected from aerial photographs taken before the purchase of the state-owned areas. None of four nests were successful on private areas in 1968 and three of five nests were successful on game production areas. In 1969 three of 19 nests were successful on private areas and 10 of 21 nests were successful on …

Flannery O'Connor And The Development Of The Grotesque In American Literature, Joan Rae Griffin
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
When man's view of himself as a being in his universe changes with the tide of events, literary conventions change as well. There is very little in contemporary life that would contradict the assumption that man's view of himself and of his world is no longer governed by the assurance of reason or the confidence of prediction. When certainty of man's place in the universe was commonly accepted, for instance in the eighteenth-century, this assurance was reflected in a literature which was essentially rational and ordered. In the last two centuries, drastic upheavals in the course of human events have …
An Urban Comprehensive Planning Model For Resource Allocation, Thomas Francis Galligan
An Urban Comprehensive Planning Model For Resource Allocation, Thomas Francis Galligan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In an address to his cabinet on August 25, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson announced a revolutionary system of planning and programming and budgeting throughout the Federal Government "• • • so that through the tools of modern management the full promise of a finer life can be brought.to every American at the lowest possible cost." The tools of modern management to which the former President referred are those employed within the Planning-ProgrammingBudgeting System (PPBS) process.

An Evaluation Of Speech Education Offered In The High Schools Of The Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod During The 1968-1969 School Year, Mary L. Heins
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
There are few vocations that utilize speaking skills as frequently as those of the teacher and the minister. Because of his belief in the importance of -his message, Professor Frederick Manthey, instructor at Martin Luther Academy, said, "A Christian - will do his utmost to further the message of the Gospel in order that this saving message may not be hindered." As a result it would seem appropriate that young men and young women preparing for. the preaching, teaching, or lay ministry or the church would certainly have need for speech training. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to …
Isolation An Characterization Of The Virus Of Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (Ehd) Of Deer, Hsing Kuei Liu
Isolation An Characterization Of The Virus Of Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (Ehd) Of Deer, Hsing Kuei Liu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The name "epizootic hemorrhagic disease" (EHD) of deer was first given by Shope et al. in 1955 because of the occurrence of the hemorrhagic disease in large epizootic_ proportions and because of its pathological features. It was also determined by them that the causative agent for the disease is a virus. Difficulties in studying the causative agent have been encountered because no host system other than the deer itself was available to support replication or detect the virus. However, isolation of the New Jersey strain of EHD virus was accomplished by Mettler et al. in 1962 using newborn mice and …
The Origin And Development Of Sunday Competition Between The Hartford Courant And The Hartford Times, James M. Neal Jr.
The Origin And Development Of Sunday Competition Between The Hartford Courant And The Hartford Times, James M. Neal Jr.
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Despite the fact that the Times was an afternoon paper and the Courant a morning paper, the two were more alike than they were different throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Each newspaper was increasingly influenced by persons not native to New England, but both retained executives with New England roots. They were closely balanced in manpower, they competed vigorously for the same kinds of news, and (after September, 1968) they presented similar Sunday packages. Carl Lindstrom's charge that newspapers were increasingly dominated by the business offices could hardly be applied fairly to either newspaper in Hartford by 1970. The publishers …
Student Instruction Manual For Black And White Film Processing And Printing, Stephen Michael Delay
Student Instruction Manual For Black And White Film Processing And Printing, Stephen Michael Delay
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
For most subject matter the ideal classroom situation would allow a one-to-one relationship between instructor and student. In teaching basic photography this is especially true because of the great number of steps involved in producing a finished photograph and because each step must be done correctly to achieve good results. Time won't permit the instructor to effectively follow each student through all the steps involved, and, ideally the student should be allowed to work at his or her own speed. The one-to-one relationship therefore, isn't possible in most photography classes and, for that reason, something is needed to take the …

The Identification Of Changing Sex Roles Within A Family Unit As Perceived By First Graders, Janelle Fridley Jones
The Identification Of Changing Sex Roles Within A Family Unit As Perceived By First Graders, Janelle Fridley Jones
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Family life education includes the total education for living in families. The main emphasis of all home economics or homemaking education is life as it is lived within the home and family. Some aspects of home economics are usually included in the curriculum at all age levels from early childhood through secondary education. Family life in America has changed over the years. Such factors as family mobility, a greater amount of leisure time, an increase in early marriages, and more mothers employed outside the home indicate the need for education in family living. Moreover, currently fewer youngsters learn about homemaking …
A Novel Fm/Am Telemetry Transmitter, Robert L. Lounsbery
A Novel Fm/Am Telemetry Transmitter, Robert L. Lounsbery
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The transmission of information is in many cases vital to modern research. An example is the transmission of information which concerns the physiological phenomena taking place inside the body of an unrestrained animal. The transmission of the information has to be accomplished with a minimum amount of-discomfort to the animal. A physical connection to the sensor would cause much discomfort to the animal and would not indicate a normal situation. Therefore, in recent years the information gained from a sensor (inside of an animal's body) has been used as the intelligence to modulate a small telemetry unit. This information is …
