Aspen Properties And Uses, Zigmond A. Zasada

Aspen Bibliography

Because of the large demand for lumber during the last 10 years, and particularly during the war period, aspen has entered many new fields of use. At present there is widespread interest in the possibilities of building new industries and extending the life of old ones by increased use of aspen. Many people are interested in becoming familiar with this wood. This report has been prepared to give general information on the properties and present uses of aspen and also to help in correcting some of the existing erroneous ideas about this wood.

A Method Of Measuring Vigor Of Range Grasses, J. E. Weaver

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

After several years of intensive study of midwestern prairies, their degeneration under grazing was given careful consideration (Weaver and Fitzpatrick, '32, '34; Weaver and Hansen, '41). It was ascertained that the intelligent use or careless abuse of these grasslands had resulted in pastures and ranges which could logically be grouped into four classes. These were excellent, good, medium, and poor. The first consisted almost entirely of climax grasses and an abundance of nutritious forbs which, as is almost universally found, were of the highest grazing value (Bews, '29: 298). In good pastures many of these persisted, but there was a …

Bulletin No. 328 - Maturity Studies With Canning Peas, L. H. Pollard, E. B. Wilcox, H. B. Peterson

UAES Bulletins

In the growing and processing of canning peas there are many factors which influence yield and quality. Of these, the stage of maturity is possibly the most important. Beyond the stage of maximum quality, peas continue to grow in size and yields increase but quality decreases. Consequently, both growers and processors are definitely interested in knowing the stage of maturity at which peas should be harvested for the greatest yield of acceptable quality. Peas harvested and processed at that stage should give both growers and canners the maximum returns if grading methods are satisfactory and price schedules equitable.

Bulletin No. 327 - Utah Agricultural Experiment Station Biennial Report, 1944-1946, R. H. Walker

UAES Bulletins

During the past biennium there has been a general expansion in the research program of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station. Although some of the investigations were curtailed by lack of personnel and equipment and the pressure of wartime assignments, many of the staff were able to devote more time to research because of a lessening of the teaching load at the College. The emergency caused a re-examination of the research program, old projects, no longer urgent were weeded out, others were revised to meet the needs of the changing times, and many new projects were initiated to extend the research …

Farm Fishponds, Verne E. Davison

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

An important part of soil and moisture conservation is making the best use of every acre on the farm. Where a suitable site for a farm pond exists, no better use can be made of such land than to develop it for the production of fish for the farm family. The recreation the pond affords adds much to the pleasure of rural life.

Thousands of farms have good pond sites. Properly developed and managed ponds may provide both food and pleasure to more than a million farm people.

This bulletin tells how to have good ponds. It explains how to …

Bulletin No. 326 - Rainfall And Irrigation In Relation To Soil Erosion, Willard Gardner, John Hale Gardner, C. W. Lauritzen

UAES Bulletins

This paper attempts to point out to farmers, agricultural specialists, and others who may be interested, pertinent facts regarding rainfall intensity and other meteorological data that have to do with the wearing down of range and agricultural soils, and to present by means of diagrams illustrations of general relationships between the rate of wearing down of irrigated soils, the size of the irrigation stream and the slope of the eroding surface.

Large streams running down steep slopes, whether from rainfall or from irrigation, constitute a destructive process that cannot be completely controlled. Fortunately, vegetation protects the soil against the destructive …

Fusarium Conglutinens Variety Callistephi, Beach And Its Effect On The Chrysanthemum, Mary Heimick Palmer

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis is the result of extensive research for the past year at Marquette University on Chrysanthemums. In particular, I refer to a specific problem, that of an attempt to ascertain with certainty the cause of a serious infection of Chrysanthemums. This treatise covers the procedure and methods used in discovering the actual pathogen, and my reasons for believing that this particular pathogen is Fusarium conglutinens variety Callistephi.

Pollination Cycles And Pollen Dispersal In Relation To Grass Improvement, Melvin D. Jones, L. C. Newell

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The plant breeder is initially concerned with gaining a knowledge of the breeding behavior of his plant materials in order that improvement may be undertaken effectively. It is important to know the different characteristic pollination habits of these plants. To develop and apply techniques applicable to the improvement of a given grass crop, it is desirable to know the time of day and the number of days that the grass sheds pollen. The effects of temperature, humidity, light, and wind on pollination must be considered. Once superiority of germplasm is obtained, the most important consideration is the maintenance of this …
