News At The Crossroads, L. E. Childers, C. D. Byrne

SDSU Extension Circulars

In this circular, created by the Agriculture Extension Service of South Dakota State College, the information provided focuses on the idea that farms do not receive enough recognition within the pages of a newspaper. This information is given via the guidance of the Agriculture Department during the year of 1929.


Laboratory Work In Poultry, H. Earl Rath Feb 1929

Laboratory Work In Poultry, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

It is probable that the winter feeding, housing and management problems of poultry have been taken up in class before this time. If not, the alert agricultural instructor can develop some very practical laboratory work by conducting a survey in the community of the conditions under which poultry is kept, and then comparing the results obtained from flocks cared for under varying conditions.

Our Changing Agriculture : A Report On Extension Work In South Dakota, A. E. Anderson Dec 1928

Our Changing Agriculture : A Report On Extension Work In South Dakota, A. E. Anderson

SDSU Extension Circulars

This circular gives a brief record of important extension service activities as they are related to outstanding changes that have taken and are taking place in South Dakota's agriculture. Many of the results of past extension work are just beginning to be felt and many other developments are only starting. Therefore, this circular has to do with present activities of the extension service and with present conditions, as well as with changes. The last ten years have seen remarkable progress but the next ten should bring even greater results in efficient production, profitable marketing, and better living.


Fall And Winter Material In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath Dec 1928

Fall And Winter Material In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

Swine are now going to market in large numbers. This offers an excellent opportunity to study market types as represented in the herd and compare them with the sows from which they were produced. If brood sows for spring litters have not all been selected, the teacher has some valuable work for pupils in selecting the better prospects from the available groups.


Some Suggestions For Fall Laboratory Work In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath Nov 1928

Some Suggestions For Fall Laboratory Work In Animal Husbandry, H. Earl Rath

Science Bulletin

Now that the seed corn is selected for next spring, and the frost has put an end to grasses and other outdoor crops, the agricultural instructor often feels that little outdoor material is available for further study. With this in mind I would like to present a laboratory exercise that will provide for some valuable outdoor work, and can be used as the basis for much classroom study as well.


Circular No. 70 - The Agricultural Outlook For Utah, P. V. Cardon, W. P. Thomas Feb 1928

Circular No. 70 - The Agricultural Outlook For Utah, P. V. Cardon, W. P. Thomas

UAES Circulars

In preparing the following statement of Utah's relation to the national agricultural outlook for 1928, the writers have been guided by three fundamental considerations : (a) Utah is a livestock state; (b) feed production is the basis of Utah agriculture; and (c) definite physical, geographic, and economic limitations govern Utah's production of crops other than feed crops.


Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten Sep 1926

Grazing Periods And Forage Production On The National Forests, Arthur W. Sampson, Harry E. Malmsten

Aspen Bibliography

Stockmen in the West have always had confidence in the adequacy of the native forage crop to provide pasturage for their livestock. Indeed, under normal climatic conditions this enormous natural resource has not failed the grazier, except where it has been called upon to meet unreasonable demands. The productivity of the range has declined sharply, however, wherever the requirements of plant growth have been disregarded for many years in succession. Where there has been too early or too frequent and to heavy grazing, undue trampling, or some other unsatisfactory feature of range use, the results have been uniformly bad. Many …


South Dakota's Agricultural Program, R. H. Rogers Aug 1925

South Dakota's Agricultural Program, R. H. Rogers

SDSU Extension Circulars

Agriculture is South Dakota's leading industry, representing a capital investment of almost three billion dollars and producing an annual income of about 200 million dollars. Still in its infancy, this great industry deserves a program of future development that will serve as a guide to the many individuals interested in the business of farming in South Dakota. In the preparation of this program, it is realized that this first attempt is not perfect in all details. However, it is hoped that with this as a beginning, the future of Agriculture in South Dakota will be approached with a keener insight …


Ec24-721 Dairy Barns For Nebraska, Oscar W. Sjogren, Ivan D. Wood Jan 1924

Ec24-721 Dairy Barns For Nebraska, Oscar W. Sjogren, Ivan D. Wood

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

The increasing interest shown among the farmers thruout this state in the betterment of dairy stock, and the tendency to give more attention to dairying on the farms, is bringing to the Agricultural College a great many requests for plans and suggestions for dairy barn construction. It is impossible to give every one of these inquiries individual attention to the extent of drawing a detailed plan to suit the conditions in each case. It is hoped therefore, that the material contained in this bulletin will offer helpful suggestions and answer many questions in the minds of prospective dairy men and …

Circular No. 46 - Thirty Years Of Agricultural Experiments In Utah, F. S. Harris, N. I. Butt Jun 1921

Circular No. 46 - Thirty Years Of Agricultural Experiments In Utah, F. S. Harris, N. I. Butt

UAES Circulars

The Utah Agricultural Experiment Station has been established over thirty years. During this time more than a hundred experimenters have worked on the staff, each one contributing something to aid in the researches that have been conducted. During the first few years regular annual reports were published, but during recent years no such reports have been issued. The results of the work of the Station have been published in station bulletins and circulars and in various technical journals.

Since there is no publication or series of publications that records all the activities of the Station it was thought desirable at …


Circular No. 44 - The Agriculture Of Utah, F. S. Harris Apr 1921

Circular No. 44 - The Agriculture Of Utah, F. S. Harris

UAES Circulars

Agriculture is so intimately related to all other industries that anything which affects the farmer reflects itself in all branches of business. The banker, the merchant, and the manufacturer must keep in touch with crop and livestock conditions of the country in order to foresee the tendencies of their own businesses. This is particularly true in a state like Utah which depends fundamentally on the products of the soil for its prosperity.

Numerous requests are received by the Experiment Station from prospective settlers living out side of the state for information concerning the agriculture of Utah. These have been kept …

Circular No. 41 - Soil Alkali, F. S. Harris Jan 1920

Circular No. 41 - Soil Alkali, F. S. Harris

UAES Circulars

The farmer of the West is likely to be very much upset at the mention of alkali, mineral, or salt, in connection with his land. These various names are applied to a condition which he usually knows little about except that it is bad. The exact nature of the substances called by these names and the character of the injuy caused by them are very vague in his mind; but he knows that he wants nothing to do with alkali if he can help it.

The prevalence of alkali throughout the arid parts of the world makes it impossible for …

Bulletin No. 166 - The Climate Of Utah, Frank L. West, N. E. Edlefsen Mar 1919

Bulletin No. 166 - The Climate Of Utah, Frank L. West, N. E. Edlefsen

UAES Bulletins

Climate is of interest and importance to the scientist in general. It is particularly important to the investigator in the field of agriculture because growing crops are affected quite as much by sunlight, heat, rain, and frost as by the fertility of the soil. In field investigations these factors must be determined and reckoned with.

Circular No. 23 - The Seed Situation In Utah, George Stewart Dec 1916

Circular No. 23 - The Seed Situation In Utah, George Stewart

UAES Circulars

Due to the use of poor seed, the farmers of Utah lose yearly many thousands of dollars. Often single farms suffer to the extent of several hundred dollars. The most regretable and yet the most hopeful thing about the seed situation is that these losses are largely preventable.

Abundant area of unoccupied public lands have hitherto been within the reach of practically any wide-awake tiller of the soil. The farmer was more nearly sure of larger hay tacks and more bushels of grain or potatoes if he doubled the size of his fields than if he attempted more thorough cultivation. …


Circular No. 22 - Some Sources Of Potassium, C. T. Hirst, E. G. Carter Nov 1916

Circular No. 22 - Some Sources Of Potassium, C. T. Hirst, E. G. Carter

UAES Circulars

The essential elements of plant food are ten in number. Of these carbon and oxygen are obtained by the plant from the air, and hydrogen from the water. Sulphur, calcium, iron and magnesium are required by plants in small quantities and are not likely to be deficient in soils. The three remaining ones--nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium--are likely to be present in soils in smaller quantities and are used by plants in larger amounts than any of the other elements taken from the soil. In addition to these ten elements already named, five other elements, viz., silicon, aluminum, sodium, chlorine, and …
