Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Since 1909, the King's Daughters' Home for Incurables in Louisville, Kentucky, has provided institutional care for physically handicapped persons who are residents of Kentucky. A hospital survey done by the Kentucky State Board of Health in 1945-46 classified the Home as a "custodial-type institution", and did not include it in the survey, as it was not considered a hospital. Surveys on phases of the work of the institution were done in 1914 (Haven Emerson Survey) and in 1940 (Health and Welfare Council Survey) for administrative purposes. This year the work of the Home has provided the material for three theses …

The Ectoparasites Of Some Of The Rodents In The Vicinity Of Brookings, South Dakota, Dermont E. Herreman Jan 1937

The Ectoparasites Of Some Of The Rodents In The Vicinity Of Brookings, South Dakota, Dermont E. Herreman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The animals known as rodents furnish very satisfactory material for the study of parasite infestations. Because parasites of rodents as well as the rodents themselves are unusually interesting, many examinations have been made, by students, of the parasites and their hosts. These investigations have, no doubt, been facilitated by the small size, abundance, and comparative ease with which these rodents can be captured. Rodents are economically important in that they themselves are injurious in doing damage to fields, crops, and forests and are responsible for looses running into the thousands of dollars annually. Also many rodents harbor parasites which are …

Bacteria In Relation To Every Day Life., Inga Werness

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

It is to be noticed that if there be any marshy places, certain animals breed there, which are invisible to the eye and yet getting into the system through the mouth and nostrils cause serious disorders." This quaint observation is taken from a manuscript written over two thousand years ago, showing that bacteria even if not seen, were living and active. Latin writers of about the same time recorded a relation between insects and malaria which has but lately been proved and explained. The infectious character of leprosy has long been recognized, since the ancient Hebrews caused the isolation of …
