Federal And State Regulations Pertaining To Systematic Collections. I. A Case Of Inadvertent Violation Of Federal Regulations, Jerry R. Choate, Hugh H. Genoways
University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers
First paragraph:
On 25 April 1975, at the twenty-second annual meeting of SWAN (i.e. Southwestern Association of Naturalists), at the University of Oklahoma Biological Station, President Keith A. Arnold appointed one of us (Choate) to investigate current regulations pertaining to collection and transport of scientific specimens in the region of representation (including Mexico) or SWAN. This charge involves both Federal and State laws, several of which are undergoing change and many of which doubtlessly are not familiar to the membership of SWAN. In order that SWAN members might be made aware of these regulations and not unwittingly commit violations, it …
Ec75-1427 Ponds For Nebraskans, Philip S. Gipson, Darrell E. Feit, Jerry W. Morris
Ec75-1427 Ponds For Nebraskans, Philip S. Gipson, Darrell E. Feit, Jerry W. Morris
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Nebraskans construct ponds for a variety of reasons. Early ponds were usually constructed to provide water for livestock. Today they are for soil and water conservation, livestock water supply, and recreational activities such as fishing, hunting, and picnicking. The trend is to design ponds for multiple use and benefit.
This extension circular includes information on where and how to build a pond; farm pond design; wildlife planting and erosion control; control of water plants; wildlife plants for farm ponds; and managing for sport fishing.

Heg75-12 Nebraska Master Mix, Harriet Kohn
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
The Nebraska Master Mix can be used to make many dishes easily. The homemade mix offers the advantage, over bought mixes, of choosing your own combination of ingredients. For example, you may want to try the whole wheat version with margarine for a deliciously different mix. Simple meals and leftovers can be sparked up by adding a homemade hotbread or other food made from the Nebraska Master Mix.
The Nebraska Master Mix is lower in fat than some but gives very good results. Sugar has been reduced in some of the recipes, but other ingredients have been used to enhance …

What happens in the lung is that air meets blood. Figure 1 shows the lung's architecture. Focus your attention upon the smallest scale structures which are the termini of the air passages. These are the alveolar air sacs or, simply, alveoli. The inhalation/exhalation actions of the lung, alternately, flood these alveoli with atmospheric air and expel its oxygen-poor/carbon dioxide-rich replacement. Figure (2a) depicts, in a somewhat simplified manner, these alveoli with their appended venous blood suppliers, the pulmonary arteries. Figure {2b} shows the structure of the blood distribution system over a small, typical portion of the alveolar surface in much …

G75-282 Emergency Wind Erosion Control (Revised March 1992), John A. Smith, Drew J. Lyon, Elbert C. Dickey, Philip Rickey
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide covers temporary techniques for emergency wind erosion control, when time and prior planning don't allow soil or seedlings adequate protection using more desirable methods. Soil erosion by wind is a serious threat to growing crops, our land resource, and the air we breathe. The best solution to soil erosion is long-term planning. Recommended practices include residue or crop cover, strip cropping, and windbreaks. These practices are known to substantially reduce wind erosion in even the most extreme conditions. However, conditions sometimes occur when serious soil erosion is imminent or has just begun, and corrective action is required to …
G75-242 Space Requirements For Swine (Revised July 1978), R. D. Fritschen, A.J. Muehling
G75-242 Space Requirements For Swine (Revised July 1978), R. D. Fritschen, A.J. Muehling
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
The amount of space required per pig was given little attention when pigs were reared on dirt lots or pasture. As confinement production developed, the amount of space needed per pig for optimal performance became an important planning-management considerations. Too few pigs per pen reduces the return on initial building investment. However, overcrowding may result in: tail biting or cannibalism, reduced gain, increase feed required per unit gain, gastric ulcers, and additive stress factors. This NebGuide discusses the space requirements needed to raise swine.
G75-232 Cow-Calf Herd Health Program (Revised April 1993), Duane Rice
G75-232 Cow-Calf Herd Health Program (Revised April 1993), Duane Rice
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Establishing a good cow-calf herd health program is a necessary step in the right direction if a profit is to be realized. The objective of any beef herd health program should be for 100 percent of the cows to produce a calf weighing enough to provide a reasonable return.
This NebGuide discusses essentials of health management in beef cow operations.

G75-269 Calf Scours — Causes And Treatment (Revised June 1996), Don Hudson, Dale Grotelueschen
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Calf scours or calf diarrhea cause significant financial loss to cow-calf producers.
This NebGuide discusses causes, treatment, supportive therapy, and herd management.
G75-246 Preventing Tail Biting In Swine (Anti-Comfort Syndrome) (Revised January 1983), Robert Fritchen, Alex Hogg
G75-246 Preventing Tail Biting In Swine (Anti-Comfort Syndrome) (Revised January 1983), Robert Fritchen, Alex Hogg
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Tail biting in swine could be renamed the anti-comfort syndrome, for any feature of the pig's environment that makes it uncomfortable may be expressed as tail biting. Tail biting is the most common of the pig's antisocial vices, but not the only one. Ear chewing, navel sucking and acute cannabalism are other forms of antisocial expressions.
This NebGuide analyzes the management situation of tail biting.
G75-237 Boxelder Bugs (Revised June 1992), Frederick P. Baxendale, David L. Keith
G75-237 Boxelder Bugs (Revised June 1992), Frederick P. Baxendale, David L. Keith
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide discusses the importance, life history and control of boxelder bugs.
Description
Boxelder bug adults are about 1/2 inch long. They are slate-gray with three red lines behind the head and red lines on the wings. The rear half of the wings have a reddish margin and the abdomen under the wings is also red. Nymphs (young bugs) are bright red with darker heads. They resemble adults, but their wings do not fully develop until they reach maturity.
G75-232 Cow-Calf Herd Health Program Basics, Dale Grotelueschen, Duane Rice
G75-232 Cow-Calf Herd Health Program Basics, Dale Grotelueschen, Duane Rice
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
This NebGuide suggests ideas and discusses some basic essentials of health management in beef cow operations.
Establishing a good cow-calf herd health program is a necessary step if profit is to be realized. Managing disease risk is an important aspect of a good health program design. Vaccinations help reduce the probability of disease but cannot solely be depended upon for prevention. Well-designed herd health programs address multiple areas of management in order to reduce likelihood of disease outbreaks. The objective of any beef herd health program should be to profitably produce calves having optimum weaning weights from a high percentage …
G75-269 Calf Scours: Causes, Prevention And Treatment, Don Hudson, R. Gene White
G75-269 Calf Scours: Causes, Prevention And Treatment, Don Hudson, R. Gene White
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
Calf scours or calf diarrhea: understand how to recognize and treat this costly condition. Calf scours or calf diarrhea causes more financial loss to cow-calf producers than any other disease-related problem they encounter. Calf scours is not a disease--it is a clinical sign of a disease which can have many causes. In diarrheas, the intestine fails to absorb fluids and/or secretion into the intestine is increased.
