The Community Of Mullinville, Kansas (1870-1900), Marilla A. Alford May 1941

The Community Of Mullinville, Kansas (1870-1900), Marilla A. Alford

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

In this thesis I have attempted to preserve the heritage of the pioneers for the coming generations of the Mullinville Community . I have closed the main body of the thesis with the year 1900 because I feel that the last forty years are too close to the present to be discussed without prejudice and that the lives of my own family have been too closely connected with the history of the community for me to take an unbiased attitude. I trust that sometime later someone will pick up this history where I have left off and add more to …

The Extraction Of Chromate Salts From Montana Chromite, Server Tasdemiroglu May 1941

The Extraction Of Chromate Salts From Montana Chromite, Server Tasdemiroglu

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

In this thesis I have tried to determine the suit­able temperature, time and the amount of soda ash and lime needed for the calcining process. The leaching and purification tests were studied experimentally. The earlier process for making chromate from chromite was not the same as is used today. There­fore I have found it useful to put into this thesis the newest method for making chromate salts and their important uses.

A Survey Of The Incidence Of Trichinosis In Northern Utah, As Indicated By The Intradermal Skin Test And Post-Mortem Examinations Of Diaphragms, H. W. Merrill

Biology

Definition and History. Trichinella spiralis, the causative organism in trichinosis, and commonly termed the "trichina worm," was first known by its encysted larval stage in the muscles of man as early as 1821, when it was noted by Tiedemann in Germany, and again in 1828, when it was seen by Peacock of London. Mr. Paget, who was a student at the Saint Bartholomew Hospital in London, noted whitish specks in the muscles of an Italian, aged 45, who had died at the hospital. Suspecting these specks to be produced by a minute internal parasite, Mr. Paget gave portions of …
