Unit Consumptive Use Of Water Studies In The Ashley And Ferron Valleys Of Utah For The 1950 Growing Season, James O. Henrie

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

For the past 2 years a project has been carried on by the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station and the United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer, in the Ashley and Ferron valleys of Utah to determine the consumptive use of water in these areas. This report is the preliminary part of the third year of study. It includes a determination of unit consumptive use values for the major agricultural crops. These values will later be used by the Soil Conservation Service and Experiment Station in determining the valley consumptive use by the …

Canal Seepage Loss Investigations In The Lewiston Area, Utah, Robert V. Thurmond

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

With population, industry, and irrigation ever increasing in the arid west, there arises new and greater demands for water. Much of the water now urgently needed is lost as seepage from the many miles of canals in the western states.

Rohwer and Stout (18) have estimated that in the western states from one-third to one-half of the water diverted for irrigation is lost before it reaches the farmers' fields. Of these losses, seepage probably accounts for the greatest loss. It is reported by the Bureau of Reclamation (14) that, of the 14,600,000 acre feet of water diverted on 36 projects …

An Evaluation Of Necessary Elements For Desirable Industrial Arts Instruction In The Elementary Schools Of Utah, Lee W. Ralphs

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

An essential part of the elementary school curriculum is the creative activity program connected with it. Educators believe that the fullest development of the child can best be attained through a program which provides a series of well selected experiences and activities. At present education considers the whole child--his abilities, needs, and interests--as vital factors in the development of a good curriculum, instead of merely the concrete and formal subject matter. Recently there has been an expressed view, by administrators of elementary school systems and many authorities and industrial arts teachers, that there is a definite need for formulating an …

Test 455: Massey-Harris Model 55, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

This report and any related files are made available to the online through the Lester F. Larsen Tractor Test and Power Museum as resources allow. Established in 1998, this museum is located on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln East Campus. It is and appropriately housed within the walls of the historic 1920 Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory, where the first tractor test was started on March 31st, 1920. Because the pioneer tests became worldwide standards, this location was designated as a Historic Landmark of Agricultural Engineering by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers in 1980, shortly after testing was moved to a …

The Uranyl Nitrate-Water System Above 60°, W. L. Marshall, Jr., J. S. Gill, C. H. Secoy

United States Department of Energy: Publications

Although there are some data in the literature for the solubility of uranyl nitrate in water, the discrepancy of these data indicated the necessity for a check on the measurements. We have measured the solubility from the incongruent melting point of the hexahydrate at about 60° to the melting point of the dihydrate at 184°. Our results show a lower solubility than that given in most of the earlier data and also indicate an incongruent melting point for the trihydrate rather than the congruent point inferred in some of the previous work. The system is thermally stable up to the …

Report No. 3 On A Concrete Pavement Without Transverse Joints, William B. Drake

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This is the third report of observations and operations pertaining to a concrete pavement without the usual transverse joints constructed in the summer of 1949. Report No. 2 which was presented to the Research Committee December, 1949, contained a detailed description of the project, pictures of the class of cracking described, a record of the crack filling operation to December, 1949, and three crack survey reports with a strip map of the project.

The purpose of this report is to present three additional crack surveys taken in 1950 with the additional crack filling operations up to this time. All of …

Field And Laboratory Evaluation Of Roadside Sign Surfacing Materials, James H. Havens, Allie C. Peed Jr.

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This paper discusses the physical and optical characteristics of sign materials and also the design and application of a Reflectometer as devised and used by the Kentucky Department of Highways in the testing of these materials, Accelerated weathering procedures and specification standards are described.

Field studies paralleling the laboratory work and a possible correlation between the two are described. The field work consists of several thousand individual observations covering thirty different sign surface types under actual conditions on a night-visibility driving-course. Most of the major types of surfaces now available are represented. This information is presented in the form of …
