Some Operational Aspects Of The General Rental Industry, Robert C. Elmen Jan 1966

Some Operational Aspects Of The General Rental Industry, Robert C. Elmen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

There is evidence that the rental industry has now matured to

a point where significant management principles have evolved and with them accounting sophistication both of which are necessary for critical analysis. The purpose of this study was to establish an analytical framework with which investors, creditors, and other interested parties might determine the feasibility of establishing new businesses or expanding old ones, or for use in correcting deficiencies in operating results of existing ones. Financial analysis relies rather heavily on ratios as standards, or measures for comparisons. Ratios, in this context, can be in any form that relates one …

Suitability Of Cheese Whey As A Substrate For Vitamin B12 Production By Propionibacterium Shermanii, Lloyd B. Bullerman Jan 1965

Suitability Of Cheese Whey As A Substrate For Vitamin B12 Production By Propionibacterium Shermanii, Lloyd B. Bullerman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Disposal of waste is a major problem confronting the food industry today. These wastes are of varied composition and origin. One such material is cheese whey. Most of the surplus whey is considered to be and handled as an industrial waste, and disposed of in some manner. Whey is a by-product of cheese making. Since 90% of the starting volume of milk remains as whey after cheese manufacture, annual production of whey is large. Herein lies a large part of the whey problem, the fact that the actual consumption of whey is a small part of the total production. If …


An Analysis Of The Comparative Reading Times For 11-Pica And 15-Pica Copy, Jack Wesley Nuckols Jan 1965

An Analysis Of The Comparative Reading Times For 11-Pica And 15-Pica Copy, Jack Wesley Nuckols

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Research concerning reading speed, type size, leading, and line width has been conducted in a systematic way for the past 50 years. The Minnesota eye-movement camera was used to reveal the specific patterns of eye movements involved in reading optimal versus non-optimal lines widths. In contradiction to Tinker and Paterson, Matthew Luckiesh and Frank Moss concluded that the readability of 10-point Text type with 2 points of leading diminishes as the length of line is increased from 13 to about 21 picas; and that further increases in the line length result in less important changes in readability. Leading (spacing between …


Opportunities And Training Needs In Non-Farm Agricultural Occupations In A South-Western Iowa School District, Robert L. Madden Jan 1965

Opportunities And Training Needs In Non-Farm Agricultural Occupations In A South-Western Iowa School District, Robert L. Madden

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Various prominent figures on the American agricultural scene, farm magazine editors, and even, to a lesser degree, the general public have become aware of the need for skilled employees in agricultural non-farm occupations. While most vocational agriculture educators recognize the need and are quite willing to help solve the problem, they frequently are working blindly. Which occupations and jobs in a given community have need for high school vocational training? What is the employment outlook in these occupations for the foreseeable future? This study was expected to identify, describe, and classify non-farm agricultural jobs in the Hamburg community in order …


An Investigation Of 10 Selected Weekly And Small Daily Newspapers Pinted By Offset Lithography And Methods And Equipment Used In Their Production, Charles Allen Ridgeway Jan 1965

An Investigation Of 10 Selected Weekly And Small Daily Newspapers Pinted By Offset Lithography And Methods And Equipment Used In Their Production, Charles Allen Ridgeway

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The subject of offset (lithography), whether applied to commercial printing or newspaper production, is a fascinating one. The fascination stems from the fact that offset is perhaps a misunderstood method of producing printing or newspapers. Resistance to change has caused much of the misunderstanding. The principle on which offset is based is the mutual repellence of water and greasy substances. The rapid strides of offset as a printing process have resulted from improvements in materials and equipment. Improvements have been made in film, paper, chemicals, cameras, presses, and in more scientific knowledge of the process. Innovations to the letterpress method …


Utilization Of The Air Permeameter To Determine The Intrinsic Permeability Of In Situ Soil, Robert A. Wiles Jan 1965

Utilization Of The Air Permeameter To Determine The Intrinsic Permeability Of In Situ Soil, Robert A. Wiles

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The first agricultural crops were grown in open areas that required minimum labor to prepare the soil for tillage. As other settlers followed, trees were cleared from the forested areas to open additional land to cultivation. The rocks and stones were removed from the fields to facilitate farming operations. There are different factors that need to be considered in the design of a drainage system, such as the permeability of the soil, the rainfall pattern and the crop rotation. The most important is the permeability of the soil profile. A knowledge of the permeability of the soil is often considered …

A Plan Of Trade And Job Analysis For Organizing Printing Instruction In School Or Plant Situations, Ngo Dinh Duyen Jan 1964

A Plan Of Trade And Job Analysis For Organizing Printing Instruction In School Or Plant Situations, Ngo Dinh Duyen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The trade and job analysis approach to managerial and educational problems has been employed effectively in many situations, particularly in vocational instruction in schools and industry. The continuous flow of new methods, techniques and processes, the development of intricate equipment, and the massing of information in the printing trade, require constant upgrading of skills, knowledge, talents and abilities of personnel. Also, the functions and responsibilities of the foremen or shop supervisors, now more highly specialized and better organized, are focused on human relations, production, and training. Without an organized system of presentation, any training course becomes a jumbled mass of …
