The Pre-Court Career Of John Marshall Harlan., Thomas L. Owen
The Pre-Court Career Of John Marshall Harlan., Thomas L. Owen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The thesis deals with the political career of John Marshall Harlan prior to his appointment in 1877 as an associate justice of the United States Supreme Court. Throughout the majority of those twenty-three active years in Kentucky politics, Harlan was an adamant defender of the slave system, and despite the fact that he had been a strong Unionist during the Civil War, he resisted emancipation of the slaves and opposed every effort to gain civil rights for the blacks once they were freed. When Harlan became a Republican in 1868, he hurriedly reversed himself, and became a consistent advocate of …

Flavor Preference And Stability Of A Low-Fat Dairy Spread, James Robert Miller
Flavor Preference And Stability Of A Low-Fat Dairy Spread, James Robert Miller
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Low-fat dairy spread has been defined as a product which contains only dairy ingredients and has a lower fat content than the commonly used spreads, butter and margarine (5). Although some low-fat spreads have contained very little fat, most of those which have been developed during the past 30 years have contained about one-third to two-thirds as much fat as the commonly used spreads and have had a higher protein content. ·The low-fat dairy spread studied in this project contained about ten times more protein and only one-half as much fat as butter and margarine. The present day justification of …
Abnormal Milk Evaluations In Eastern South Dakota Milk Plants And Dairy Herds, Edwin J. Kleen
Abnormal Milk Evaluations In Eastern South Dakota Milk Plants And Dairy Herds, Edwin J. Kleen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
For many years bovine mastitis has been a major problem for dairy producers, the seriousness of which can be measured by the volumes of literature which have been written about it as well as the economic losses incurred by the dairy industry because of it. The fact that mastitis is still a virulent disease in spite of the vast amount of research conducted on it would suggest either that the underlying causes of mastitis still are not completely understood or that the knowledge gained through research has not been presented effectively to those who need it most—namely the dairy farmer. …
Characteristics And Distribution Of Staphylococci And Micrococci Isolated From Bovine Udders, Clyde Arnold Kirkbride
Characteristics And Distribution Of Staphylococci And Micrococci Isolated From Bovine Udders, Clyde Arnold Kirkbride
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Mastitis remains the most costly disease of dairy cattle. The annual loss to the dairy industry in the United States from this disease has been estimated between $225 and $500 million per year. Ninety to 95% of infectious mastitis is reported to be associated with Streptococcus agalactiae or Staphylococcus spp. Staphylococcus aureus and others of the family Micrococcaceae are reported to be the second most commonly found udder pathogens. The pathogenesis of staphylococcic mastitis remains poorly understood. Some research data have indicated that the disease is essentially contagious, and that the source of the organism is an infected udder, and …
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 …
Reliability Study Of A Modified Los Angeles Rattler Test, Joe H. Smith
Reliability Study Of A Modified Los Angeles Rattler Test, Joe H. Smith
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The ever constant demand for more and better roads and concrete structures has forced the engineer to seek construction materials with better physical properties. Because of this demand, our nation's once vast supply of high quality, easily accessible natural resources is becoming depleted. One such natural resource is mineral aggregates. These mineral aggregates may be classified as the smaller rocks composed of one or more minerals. The money expended for the procurement and placement of mineral aggregates for highway use represents approximately one-fourth of the total highway cost. Because of this large amount of money spent annually for mineral aggregates, …
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 …

Characteristics Of Low-Income Families In The Head Start Program In Three Eastern South Dakota Counties, Christopher Lee Smith
Characteristics Of Low-Income Families In The Head Start Program In Three Eastern South Dakota Counties, Christopher Lee Smith
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Little has been published which deals specifically with families in the Head Start program. Therefore, it would seem most appropriate to ask: What characteristics do Head Start families possess; in what way, if any, do these characteristics differ from those characteristics which are frequently attributed to the "poverty type" family; and, what are the Head Start parents impressions of the Head Start program. Objective 1. To determine the extent to which a sample of Head Start families possesses certain social and demographic characteristics which have been cited as common among families participating in the Head Start program, or among poverty …
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 …

The Primary Structure Of Selected Peptides From Chymotryptic Digests Of Nifungin, Burton D. Cardwell
The Primary Structure Of Selected Peptides From Chymotryptic Digests Of Nifungin, Burton D. Cardwell
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Nifungin, an antifungal peptide produced by Aspergillus giganteus, was studied and partially characterized. The amino acid composition of the antifungal peptide was investigated , and eighty-seven percent of the peptide constituents were identified. The presence of free –SH groups in the peptide was studies by spectrophototmetric titration of the peptide with p-hydroroxymercuribenzoate. Performic acid oxidation was used to disrupt the disulfide bridges present in the molecule, and subsequent enzymatic digestion of the oxidized peptide was accomplished with alpha chymotrypsin. Chromatographic separation of the digestion mixture produced eleven chymotryptic peptides. Six of these peptides were selected for amino acid sequence analysis …

Replacement Of Protein With Amino Acids In Diets For Laying Hens And Turkey Poults, Edwin J. Novacek
Replacement Of Protein With Amino Acids In Diets For Laying Hens And Turkey Poults, Edwin J. Novacek
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Low protein diets were formulated for experiments with laying hens and turkey poults. The diets were supplemented with equal amounts of protein and different feedstuffs while maintaining equal calculated levels of selected amino acids. Single trails were also reported for factorially applied amino acid supplements to turkey starter and cage-layer diets. The three-year studies indicated that a typical corn-soy layer diet diluted with glucose monohydrate to 9.4 percent protein was deficient in methionine, lysine and tryptophan. Attempts to further improve the rate of egg production by additional supplements of arginine, isoleucine, valine, or diammonium citrate were not successful. The low …

Studies Of High Level Copper Supplementation To Rations For Growing-Finishing Swine, Larry Wayne De Goey
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Scientists are continually searching for new compounds, as well as optimum levels and combinations of existing compounds, in order to improve gain and feed efficiency of pigs fed common swine rations without adversely affecting the quality of the pork produced. Feed efficiency is of particular importance to a profitable swine enterprise since feed costs make up approximately 65% of total production costs. During the last two decades there has been considerable interest in the ability of copper to increase gains and feed efficiency when fed at high levels in swine rations. Several reports have indicated that copper is an effective …
The "Republic Of The Spirit" : Marital Love In Edith Wharton's The House Of Mirth, The Custom Of The Country, And The Age Of Innocence, Nancy Lee Preszler
The "Republic Of The Spirit" : Marital Love In Edith Wharton's The House Of Mirth, The Custom Of The Country, And The Age Of Innocence, Nancy Lee Preszler
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Edith Wharton's concern with the institution of marriage was both a personal and an artistic one. Her own marriage ended in divorce after many years of trying to nurse her husband through repeated attacks or mental illness. This marriage, not the ideal as far as Mrs. Wharton was concerned, was one of companionship but one lacking spiritual and intellectual satisfaction. The attitude which Mrs.Wharton gradually developed toward her own marriage and its failure is apparent in her fiction. This thesis has analyzed Edith Wharton's three major society novels, The House Mirth, The Custom of the Country, and The Age of …

An Economic Analysis Of Selected Irrigation Systems Applicable To The Eastern Missouri Slope Area Of South Dakota, Myron W. Wolff
An Economic Analysis Of Selected Irrigation Systems Applicable To The Eastern Missouri Slope Area Of South Dakota, Myron W. Wolff
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
For many years the prospect of irrigation development has captured the minds of farmers, agribusinessmen, and residents of the Eastern Missouri Slope area of South Dakota. The area has shared in the over-all technological advance in agriculture, but agricultural production and incomes have remained highly variable. This variability is generated by inconsistent yields caused by extreme annual fluctuations in the quantity and seasonal distribution of rainfall. Irrigation is the logical solution for stabilizing production and income. In the last decade there has been a major transition from gravity to sprinkler irrigation systems. Economic and physical factors have caused the trend …
