Bulletin No. 97 - Report On The Southern Utah Experiment Station, R. S. Northrop, Joseph T. Atkin, P. A. Yoder

UAES Bulletins

When, in the early part of the year 1905 , the management of the Southern Utah Experiment Farm was turned over to the officials of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station, in compliance with an act of the legislature of that year a number of experiments were under way, principally variety tests with orchard and small fruit. The State Board of Horticulture had been in charge of this farm since its establishment in 1899, and had succeeded in making out of it not only a place that will indicate the varieties of fruits adapted to that climate and soil , but …

Bulletin No. 101 - Feeding Experiments With Cattle, Sheep, Swine And Horses, R. W. Clark

UAES Bulletins

Since the establishment of sugar factories in this State, considerable inquiry has arisen regarding the food value of sugar beets and the by-products of the factories. The last publication from this station on the subject was Bulletin No. 90 which gave the results of feeding sugar beet pulp and molasses in various combinations to sheep and steers. Previous to the appearing of this publication some experimental work had been carried out in feeding sugar beets to swine and sugar beet pulp and beet molasses to sheep. The results secured seemed to warrant further work in the same direction and in …

Six experimental dry farms were located one in each of the following counties: Iron, Juab, San Juan, Sevier, Tooele and Washington.

Bulletin No. 99 - Report On Irrigation And Drainage Investigations During 1905-1906, E. R. Morgan, W. W. Mclaughlin

UAES Bulletins

A general plan for the scientific investigation of the laws governing plant production as influenced by the application of irrigation water, was outlined in 1900 by Dr. John A. Widtsoe as Director of the Utah Experiment Station. The detailed plans were prepared by the heads of the Chemical, Agronomy and Irrigation Department, under whose cooperation the work was to be carried on. In 1903 the Office of Experiment Stations of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, by contributing funds to this work, became a party to the experiments. Since then the investigations have been under the joint supervision of the …

On The Structure Of The Pistils Of Some Grasses, Elda Rema Walker

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The purpose of this investigation has been to determine to what extent there is evidence of a third carpel in the pistils of grasses. The study has been carried on, by means of cross and longitudinal sections, cut in different planes, as well as by a study of the external appearance of the pistils. The following are the results obtained:

Tribe Festuceae

Tribe Hordeae

Tribe Chlorideae

Tribe Aveneae

Tribe Agrostidcae

Tribe Phalarideae

Tribe Oryzeae

Tribe Paniceae

Tribe Andropogoneae

Bulletin No. 95 - Codling Moth Work In 1904: The Relative Value Of Early And Late Sprays, E. D. Ball, E. G. Peterson

UAES Bulletins

The codling moth continues to be the most s serious pest of the Utah horticulturist and was therefore made the main subject of investigation by the Entomological Department for the season of 1904.

In spite of the immense amount of work that ha been done on this subject by various entomologists in this and other countries, several vital points still remain unknown and many more that have been worked out for other localities must be verified and adapted to our conditions.

On The Movements Of Petals, Esther Pearl Hensel

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The following paper has to do with an investigation of the physical causes· which bring about opening and closing movements, periodic or otherwise, of certain flowers. With that end in view, seven different species of flowering plants have been experimented upon directly, a much larger number being simply observed with respect to the nature, time, etc., of their anthotropic movements. Movement consists in the corolla taking upon itself either the open or closed position for certain periods of the day or night; for example, the morning glory (Ipomoea purpurea) opens early in the morning (from 4:00 to 5 …
