Observations In The Vicinity Of Wall Lake, Frank A. Wilder

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The Wall Lake in question is a picturesque sheet of water three miles long and a mile wide, in southeastern Sac County. The only published observations in regard to this lake that I have found are those of Mr. Charles A. White, who wrote in regard to it in connection with other walled lakes of Iowa, in the American Naturalist, Vol. II, and in the annual reports of the Geological Survey of Iowa, Vols. I and II.

Powdery Mildew Of The Apple, L. H. Pammel

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

There has been much discussion on the subject of powdery mildew of the apple. It has been referred to several genera but Sorauer in his book on “Plant Diseases" and Tubeuf in his work on "Plant Diseases" reports the Podopshaera oxyacanthae DC., as destructive to the apple, and makes the statement that it is abundant upon the apple and pear in America. Frank in the second edition of his work on “Plant Diseases” makes a statement somewhat similar to that of Tubeuf. These statements are undoubtedly based upon the work of Galloway, who paid some attention to the subject of …

Quince Fruit With An Immense Number Of Seeds, L. H. Pammel

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Several years ago there was brought to me a quince, Pyrus cydonia, containing much more than the usual number of seeds. The genus Pyrus has from two to five ovaries and in each ovary are two ovules. Bailey in the revised edition of “Gray's Field, Forest and Garden Botany" states that the five cells are normally many seeded. In the case under consideration the fruit had a perfectly normal appearance of five cells and over one hundred seeds. They are shown in the accompanying illustrations.

Some Cercosporae Of Macon Co., Alabama, George W. Carver

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The wide distribution and the economic importance of the Cercospora in this county has prompted the writing of this paper. This list by no means represents all of the species of this county, as no special effort has been made to collect Cercospora only. These collections were made while passing hurriedly to and from other duties. With few exceptions, the species were collected in the immediate vicinity of Tuskeegee.

Terraces Of The Nile Valley, Charles R. Keyes

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Erosion forms in regions of very dry climates are always of great interest. The characteristic relief outlines are not only preserved much longer than in regions of abundant rainfall, but the types of different cycles or parts of cycles are not merged with one another. In other words, the sequence of events is read at a glance in the one district, while in the second it is made out only partially after long and laborious effort. The Great Basin is the best example in this country.

Notes On The Acocephalina (Homoptera Jassidae), E. D. Ball

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This widely distributed European species has been found in New York, Michigan and Iowa; and this season it was found abundantly in Colorado, as far west as the foot-hills, indicating a very general distribution east of the Rockies, at least.

A Study Of The Chemical Composition Of Some Of The Grasses Of The State, J. B. Weems

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

ne of the problems in connection with the work of the experiment station for the past two or three years has been an investigation of the native grasses of the state. The work has been carried on by the botanical and chemical sections of the station and the results which are presented here may be regarded as a part of this work. The analyses presented are of those grasses which have been most thoroughly investigated and are as follows: (1), Dactylis glomerata (orchard grass); (2), Muhlenbergia Mexicana (Mexican wood-grass); (3), Spartina cynosuroides (fresh water cord grass); (4), Poa pratensis (Kentucky …

A Chemical Study Of Butter Increasers, J. B. Weems, F. W. Bouska

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In connection with the investigations in the chemical laboratory of the experiment station of problems connected with the amount of water present in butter, analyses were made of two samples of butter which appeared to contain a very large amount of water. The water present was apparently in large proportions and this condition gave a reason for the request for the analyses. In the attempt to mix the product in order to get an average sample it was found that the water readily separated from the other constituents, and on analysis of the product the following results were obtained.

Eleodes In Iowa, H. F. Wickham

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The genus Eleodes contains certain species of beetles belonging to the family Tenebrionidae. They are terrestrial and cursorial, rarely being found on plants of any size, though a few are known to ascend the stems of shrubs. All are of large or medium size, and devoid of functional wings, the elytra being connate, forming a perfect shield which clasps the sides of the body. The integument is very thick, and forms, in connection with this elytral structure, an efficient protection from desiccation. Repugnatorial glands are present, secreting a powerful caustic fluid which is discharged through the anus when the insect …

Genesis Of Normal Compound, And Normal Horizontal Faulting, Charles R. Keyes

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In the mining districts of mountainous regions the ore-bearing belts are quite often coincident with fault planes. These planes are not usually clean-cut, single slipping surfaces, but consist of a number of gliding faces distinct from one another, sometimes branching, sometimes crossing at low angles, and contain in their immediate neighborhood more or less brecciated material. This compound character of what we are prone to pass over as single, simple dislocation, is found, after a little careful examination, to prevail in the majority of cases.

The Distribution Of Forest Trees In Iowa, B. Shimek

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The discussion of the origin of our prairies, and of the distribution of our native forest trees, is as old as our knowledge of the central northwest. The earlier discussions were based on a knowledge of conditions as they existed when the white man first appeared in this section, and, though some of them are crude, and based upon insufficient observation, they fortunately give us at least a partial record of those conditions.

The Genus Salix In Iowa, Carleton R. Ball

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The genus Salix has long and justly been considered a difficult one to study. It is not that the genus is so large, there being only some 200 living species known, or that these species are so variable in themselves, although a few of them are known to be very much so. The chief difficulty lies in the dioecious character of the plants, and the fact that in the majority of the species the flowers are produced before the leaves appear, or at least before they are large enough to become characteristic.
