An Investigation As To The Comparative Cost Of Fuels For Heating Homes In The City Of Brookings, South Dakota, Robert P. Puncochar

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The object or intent of this investigation was to make a study of comparative costs of heating homes in the city of Brookings. Six different fuels or methods of firing of these fuels were compared in the two main categories of home heating; hot water radiators and warm air furnaces. The investigation was not intended to increase the efficiency of any specific installation. However, the efficiencies of several of the atomizing oil burners wore increased considerably by changes in the air settings which should have been made by the installer when the furnace was originally installed.

A Local Cost-Sharing Plan For Watersheds Under The Watershed Protection And Flood Prevention Act, Henry N. Ziegler

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Henry N.

The “Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act” as amended was passed for the purpose of initiating a program to eliminate or reduce flood damages as well as to promote better use of land through better control of water. The multi-responsibility feature of Public Law 566 and the amended portion, Public Law 1018, attempts to coordinate the talents of the Federal and State agencies with that of the local sponsoring group. The latter has a large share of the responsibility of carrying out the successful operation of the project. One of the important features of the law is the …

The Economic Feasibility Of Whole Milk Procurement By Creameries In Eastern South Dakota, Ralph O. Felberg

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The butterfat produced over the greater part of the state of South Dakota has been sold by farmers largely in the form of farm separated cream because of the low density of milk suppliers and limitations imposed by road and climatic conditions. Much of the butter manufactured from this cream has been of poor quality and adjustments which improve quality have been slow in taking place. Changes are needed that will improve the quality and, perhaps add to the variety of the dairy products manufactured if the dairy industry in South Dakota is to continue to make its contribution to …

Comparative Study Of The Scholastic Ability, Scholastic Achievement And Activity Participation Of Home Economics Students At South Dakota State College, Deloris E. Mangels

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The status of the professional home economist is dependent at least partially on the relative standing of the home economics student to other students. While it is recognized that additional factors influence the home economist’s status upon graduation, it is felt that certain knowledge concerning the background of the home economics student would provide valuable information basic to developing a better understanding of home economists and their professional. This study is designed primarily as an investigation of the students enrolled as home economics majors at South Dakota State College. It concerns comparative data of the home economics and the non-home …

Reaction Of Certain Diploid And Tetraploid Alfalfas To Some Phytopathogens Including The Blackstem Disease, Harry Geise

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Alfalfa in South Dakota as in other parts of the United States and the world is adversely affected by a disease known as Blackstem. This disease is induced by one or more fungi or bacteria whose abundance depends as much on the high susceptibility of the current alfalfa varieties as on the weather. Differences in plant susceptibility to one of these microorganisms, Ascochyta imperfect, has already been shown to occur within and between alfalfa varieties or strains. Reitz working in Kansas obtained F1’s between highly resistant and highly susceptible plants that were intermediate in reaction to this fungus, and in …

A Comparison Of The Arithmetic Background Of Seventh Grade Pupils Who Have Received Their First Six Years Of Schooling In Rural Schools With Those Who Received Their First Six Years Of Schooling In The Pipestone City Schools, Peter P. Spawn

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In the past five year, there has been a trend in Pipestone County, Minnesota, to close the one-room country schools and send these rural children to consolidated town schools. Up to about five years ago, there were many rural schools in the county educating these young children up through the sixth grade, then the children would start Junior High School in one of the four towns in the county with high school facilities: namely Ruthton, Jasper, Edgerton and Pipestone. The program went on this way for many years, but now the closing of these rural schools is about eight percent …

Culture And Conflict In Israel., Hannah Scoggin

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Times Square went mad with noise and excitement, and a small freighter slipped from its Brooklyn berth into the drama of the night. It was December 31, 1949--midnight-January 1, 1950; and I was on my way to the world in general and Israel and the Near East in particular. To say the words Near East, to hear them spoken, to read the combination of Latin letters, even to think them fleetingly can conjure up for me a haze of incense-tinged dreams in which I see exotic sights, breathe pungent odours, and hear mysterious sounds. The Near East is all this …

Research On A Portable Floor Plate Brooder With Electric Heating Elements For Use In South Dakota, Virgil H. Flesher

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A reduced profit margin in the poultry business has brought about the demand for more efficient methods of poultry farming. A savings of a few cents per bird on the cost of raising poultry may mean the difference between profit or loss. With this is mind an efficiency study was made of three types of electric brooders. Two of these types of brooders, the infra-red lamp and the conventional electric resistance type heating element and hover, are available commercially. The portable floor plate brooder with electric heating elements was constructed for research purposes in this study. These three brooders units …

Pan Evaporation Measuremnts As A Criterion For Predicting The Irrigation Requirements For Various Crops, Niel A. Dimick

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Measurement of evaporated water from various devices has assisted in determination of the evaporation losses from large storage reservoirs. Evaporation is a large consumer of open-reservoir stored water which is used for irrigation, municipalities, manufacturing and numerous other purposes. The use of evaporation pans for measuring the quantity of water evaporated produces better results for estimating the resource extent of our stored water. Precautionary steps can then be taken toward the possible occurrence of predicted water shortages. This is essentially the principle involved in determining the consumptive use of moisture by irrigated crops. Consumptive use is commonly referred to as …

Discharge From A Sandpoint Well System For A Thin Aquifer In The Sioux River Area, Harold Holmen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

One of the principal sources of water for irrigation is the underground water stored beneath the surface of the earth. Various methods have been devised to extract this water so that it may be applied to growing crops in regions of inadequate rainfall. Near the Sioux River in Eastern South Dakota, ample water has been obtained at shallow depths to irrigate average sized fields in certain areas. A sandpoint well system, which consists of four or five sandpoints connected to a centrifugal pumping unit, is being used to remove the water from the ground and force it through a sprinkler …

A Survey Of The Occupational Status Of Post World War Ii Agriculture Education Graduates Of South Dakota State College, Harry Franz

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Today facts are demanded by everyone and for every purpose. To some extent, every activity of our life is governed by the results of a study of books and periodicals. This is true of a farmer cultivating his land, feeding his livestock, or purchasing his machinery. It is also true of persons in other vocations; the minister, the banker, the public official, the educator, the business man, and many others. When the vocational agriculture teacher has a problem he consults a “Handbook on Teaching Vocational Agriculture” which is a collection of organized facts based on experience. The efficiency in teaching …
