Summer And Fall Ecology Of Gray Patridge In Eastern South Dakota, Jerry W. Hupp
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Gray partridge (Perdix perdix) nesting biology, summer and fall habitat utilization, home range, and food habits were studied in Brookings County, South Dakota, during 1978-79. Data were collected on a 62 km² study area 16 km northeast of Brookings. Nesting habitats, success, and clutch size were determined from 44 randomly located nests. Most nests (91%) were in grassy roadsides and fencerows. Few birds nested in cover dominated by legume vegetation. Average clutch size of completed nests was 17.8 eggs and nest success was 37%. Mammalian predation was the major cause (50%) of nesting failure. Gray partridge habitat utilization was determined …

A Comparative Perspective On The Status Attainment Process Of White And Native American Youth, Leonard R. Decker
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Status attainment, as commonly indicated by levels of educational and occupational achievement, is a complicated process. A variety of variables have been found to be quite influential in the determination of one's eventual position in the social hierarchy of American society. Research done jointly by William H. Sewell and Robert M. Hauser (1972, 1975) regarding the status attainment process has resulted in a Wisconsin model of Adolescent Achievement in which the authors have identified a number of experiences that have significant import for young people's post-high school educational and occupational attainments. The Sewell and Hauser model links socioeconomic origins and …
Soil Microfungal Relationships Associated With Grassland Reestablishment, Dennis C. Clarke
Soil Microfungal Relationships Associated With Grassland Reestablishment, Dennis C. Clarke
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The mixed prairie association has a characteristic soil microfungal flora associated with the cover vegetation (Clarke and Christensen, 1980). Rhizosphere organisms are correlated with the cover vegetation (Christensen, 1969) and a change in the cover vegetation should be accompanied by a change in the organisms in the rhizosphere. Some disturbances that may lead to change in the cover vegetation are tillage, grazing, interseeding, mowing and fires. Christensen's (1980) review of species diversity and dominance in fungal communities indicates that in general these disturbances tend to reduce soil microfungal diversity while increasing the frequency of the remaining species. Other studies have …

The Effects Of Sex And Hormonal Implant On Carcass Characteristics And Palatability, J. David Stout
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Consumer demand for beef has undergone a number of dramatic changes during recent years. Consumers are expressing a preference for reasonably priced beef cuts with a high proportion of lean in relation to fat.

Martha Ostenso : Romance Versus Realism, Laura Bosch
Martha Ostenso : Romance Versus Realism, Laura Bosch
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Martha Ostenso’s career as a novelist can be summarized as one of overnight success, loss of reputation, and finally obscurity. Still, her life, coupled with her fiction, provides a paradoxical and fascinating story. It might even be viewed as representative of the emerging consciousness of the American woman during the early part of the twentieth century. In 1924, at the age of twenty-four, she was awarded the highest sum ever granted a North American author for a first novel; by the time of her death in 1963, she was virtually an unknown and unreputed as a serious author. The following …
Penance And Confession In Medieval Literature For The Laity, Mary J. Daniel
Penance And Confession In Medieval Literature For The Laity, Mary J. Daniel
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The world of the Middle Ages was one which constantly reminded man of his temporary nature and uncertain future. All around him, the medieval man witnessed disease, disaster and death. The bubonic plague mysteriously appeared in the fourteenth century to claim, according to some estimates, as much as one third of the population of the unknown world. Earthquakes, storms and droughts were considered by many as the signs of God’s displeasure with man, and he natural explanations of these phenomena were left to the later generations. Poor hygiene and inadequate knowledge of how to deal with the problems of overpopulation …
