Poultry Breeds Must Be Conserved : An Ideal Small Unit, R H. Morris Jan 1977

Poultry Breeds Must Be Conserved : An Ideal Small Unit, R H. Morris

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

The Department of Agriculture is concerned at the rapid disapearance of some poultry breeds and strains over recent years. This trend has resulted from the disposal of flocks previously held by commercial poultry breeders and fanciers.

One way to stop the trend of disappearance of poultry breeds is for interested people to maintain a breeding flock of pure-bred poultry, making the progeny available to others.

This article describes a small unit suitable for housing breeding fowls. The unit is based on designs developed by the Department of Agriculture.


Individualized Instructional Units For Estimating In The Construction Field, Robert P. Rosendahl Nov 1976

Individualized Instructional Units For Estimating In The Construction Field, Robert P. Rosendahl

Graduate Research Papers

The purpose of this study was to investigate the development, production, and use of individualized instructional units for construction estimating for the purpose of incorporating a section on estimating into the construction technology course of the industrial arts program. These units should be equally valuable in seminars, workshops, and courses set up for construction personnel, engineers, retail lumber dealers, and university or technical students.

Bulletin No 3887 - Cattle Yard Construction, Western Australian Department Of Agriculture Jan 1974

Bulletin No 3887 - Cattle Yard Construction, Western Australian Department Of Agriculture

Bulletins - 3000 - 3999

Good cattle yards allow animals to be handled quietly, safely and efficiently. If yards are well designed, animal uneasiness is minimised and so, too, are frayed tempers.

This bulletin outlines general points of cattle yard design and construction. There are many and varied cattle yard designs in use—many good ones and some bad ones. This bulletin should help in avoiding the bad ones.

A Study Of The Prevalent Categories Of Conflict As Perceived By The Architect And The School Client On School Construction Projects In Indiana, Tracy Dust Aug 1972

A Study Of The Prevalent Categories Of Conflict As Perceived By The Architect And The School Client On School Construction Projects In Indiana, Tracy Dust

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In view of the complexities which are now involved in school facility construction, it is paramount that the relationship between the architect and his school client develop fully and that it be based upon a clear and mutual understanding of role expectation. The school board, as the hiring agency, is characteristically composed of laymen both in the field of education and in the field of heavy construction. They must rely upon the judgment of the architect regarding the design features of the proposed facility and must depend upon their superintendent and his staff for determining educational program requirements.

Land Levelling With Scrapers, K R. Southon

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

A VARIETY of earth-moving equipment can be used in preparing land for flood irrigation, but the best machine for extensive earth moving over some distance is a power-driven, carry-all scraper.


State New Construction Technologies 1963, Orani Dixon, John V. Wells Sep 1970

State New Construction Technologies 1963, Orani Dixon, John V. Wells

Accounts and Data

This is a study that considers both interregional technological variations and interregional product mix variations. Product mix variations are estimated more accurately by using more disaggregated construction subindustries and by improving the accuracy of the state output totals used as weights in estimating product mix variations.

Piggery Septic System, N E. Macintyre

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

ONE of the problems of intensive houses for pigs is the disposal of the dung and urine.

If proper arrangements are not made to remove this, it soon accumulates in an offensive pile at one end of the piggery, making an excellent breeding ground for flies.
