Studies On Perennial Weed Control In South Dakota, Steven Robert Gylling
Studies On Perennial Weed Control In South Dakota, Steven Robert Gylling
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Studies were conducted to measure efficacy and economics of selected herbicide treatments for leafy spurge control in pasture, and to characterize the interaction of ammonium sulfate and glyphosate for quackgrass control. Several treatments resulted in leafy spurge control exceeding 90% in the tested pasture. Mean herbage dry-weight yield in treated plots was 2340 kg/ha, a 67% increase over untreated plots. Forage yields did not significantly differ among treatments controlling 90% or more leafy spurge. Marginal net return over marginal cost from herbicide treatments ranged from $35 to loss of $63/ha. Treatments providing satisfactory leafy spurge control with minimum economic risk …
Response Of Five Spring Wheat Cultivars To Drought, Gregory Keith Hess
Response Of Five Spring Wheat Cultivars To Drought, Gregory Keith Hess
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Response of plants to water stress are numerous and interrelated. Morphological traits and growth patterns have been studied and reviewed extensively. Root growth patterns, leaf area and thickness, presence of cuticle hair and waxes, leaf movement, and wilting are only a few traits studied. Metabolic functions and how water stress affects these processes through stomatal behavior, transpiration rates and carbon dioxide exchange rates have also been reviewed. Plant breeders are continually searching for traits which aid in selecting for high yielding genotypes in any one environment. Moisture is often limiting in South Dakota's environment, leading to relatively low grain yields …

The Theory And Practice Of Misspelling : A Linguistic Analysis, Judy Frasch Worman
The Theory And Practice Of Misspelling : A Linguistic Analysis, Judy Frasch Worman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The freshmen at South Dakota State University are primarily students who have lived their entire lives in small agricultural communities. They are neither stupid nor unintelligent but merely inexperienced in writing formal exposition. Many of them come from towns with populations under one-thousand and high school graduating classes of twenty-five to fifty. Their primary means of communication (up until they enrolled in college) was through speech. Because they rarely write, they feel very uncomfortable about learning to write effectively. For the most part, these inexperienced writers are bright but unable to express themselves orthographically. There were some who, in spite …

Robert Bly And The Twofold Consciousness, Mary A. Thelen
Robert Bly And The Twofold Consciousness, Mary A. Thelen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
"How beautiful to walk out at midnight in the moonlight/ dreaming of animals." It is samplings of Robert Bly's poetry such as these which have prompted Eliot Weinberger to wonder, "What kind of windbag and language slob would write such a line?" But there are also such fine and startling images as "The bare trees more dignified than ever" or "lamplight that falls on all fours in the grass," which Ian Hamilton admires. Hayden Carruth has encapsulated the view of many of Bly's readers, who regard him as one of the most annoying and exciting poets of the 1960's and …
The Manufacture Of Cheddar Cheese Using Vacuum Concentrated Milks, Charles A. Bemis
The Manufacture Of Cheddar Cheese Using Vacuum Concentrated Milks, Charles A. Bemis
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The United States (US) cheese industry has grown rapidly in the past decade. From 1971 to 1981, milk fat utilization for cheese manufacture increased from 17.7 to 27.6% of the total US milk fat supply, accompanied by a 49% increase in sales of cheese per capita (34). Offsetting substantial increases in sales and prices for cheeses, there have been marked increases in the cost of labor, energy, waste treatment, raw materials, and equipment. Hence, the manufacturers are realizing narrower profit margins. As a survival mechanism, cheesemakers have sought to maximize cheese yields per unit of milk, since increases in cheese …
Love In Major Novels Of Carson Mccullers, Lynn Margaret Butterbrodt
Love In Major Novels Of Carson Mccullers, Lynn Margaret Butterbrodt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Mrs. McCullers was not a prolific writer; this was largely due to the fact that she was hindered throughout much of her life by serious illnesses. When she was fifteen, doctors misdiagnosed rheumatic fever as "pneumonia with complications.” Her heart was severely damaged by this illness; consequently, she suffered strokes which resulted in blindness in one eye, complete paralysis of her left side, and complications therefrom. Her final stroke in 1967 left her comatose for forty-seven days until her death on September 29, 1967, at age fifty. Her doctors believed that had her early illness been correctly diagnosed, her lifestyle …
S.I. Hayakawa And The Use Of Danger Indicators Of General Semantics, Janine Rae Rudnick
S.I. Hayakawa And The Use Of Danger Indicators Of General Semantics, Janine Rae Rudnick
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Many books and articles have been written about general semantics and specific phrases included in general semantics study. The books generally have a theme of the meaning of words. Very few books or articles, however, have stressed the importance of J. Samuel Bois' danger indicators as part of the meaning of words. "Ego statements" 11 and "either or" 12 indicators have been touched upon in books and articles, but no one has dedicated significant study to the specific danger indicators as presented by Bois. It is this writer's belief that the danger indicators of general semantics should be studied more …

Effects Of Different Feed Additives On The Growth Of Turkeys, Hossein Samie
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A total of 3780 male and 216 female large white Nicholas turkeys were used in four experiments to determine the effect of different feed additives on turkey performance. In the first experiment, the effect of 60, 120 or 240 ppm Cu on the growth of male turkeys was examined as affected by 75, 100 or 125% of the suggested NRC (1977) levels of sulfur amino acids (S-AA). The second experiment was designed to study the effect of 60 ppm Cu, Neo-Terramycin at 200 gm per ton, (80 gm Terramycin after 12 weeks) and Zn- bacitracin at 50 gm per ton …
The Short Stories Of Djuna Barnes : A Less Disquieting Vision, Patricia Doughty
The Short Stories Of Djuna Barnes : A Less Disquieting Vision, Patricia Doughty
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Reading the works of the relatively unknown American author, Ojuna Barnes, often proves to be an intense experience, an experience which is not easily forgotten. Although one may not readily comprehend the thematic content of Barnes' work, one is immediately drawn to the beauty and the power of her language. Barnes' language is harmonious with her ideas. In her writing she deals with the often confusing complexities of the human condition, and to express those complexities, she uses language that is as highly charged and as complex as the condition described. She writes poetic fiction, prose that is inundated with …
Sun Yat-Sen's Inductive Support And Deductive Reasoning In Selected "Three Principles Of The People" Speeches, Chen-Lung Ringo Ma
Sun Yat-Sen's Inductive Support And Deductive Reasoning In Selected "Three Principles Of The People" Speeches, Chen-Lung Ringo Ma
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to determine the extensiveness and the effectiveness of inductive support and deductive reasoning revealed in selected "Three Principles of the People" speeches made by Dr. Sun Yat-sen in 1924. Extensiveness, in this study, was mainly concerned with quantitative measurement how much inductive support and deductive reasoning had been employed within each selected speech. Effectiveness, on the other hand, called for a qualitative judgment--how well or how effectively the inductive support and the deductive reasoning within the speeches had matched the established criteria. To accomplish the purpose stated above, answers to the following questions were …
