4-H Club : Home Life Project "A" Plan, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

The living room should be so planned and arranged that all members of the family enjoy it. This room should be comfortable, convenient, and pleasant. It should provide space for the interests of each member and it should express a spirit of welcome to guests. After a family planning session you'll probably find that your family wants the living room to include a reading unit, a conversation unit, a writing unit, a sewing unit and possibly a music unit.

Separation Of The Selenium Compounds In Seleniferous Plant Protein Hydrolysates By Paper Partition Chromatography, Arnold L. Smith

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In 1943 Franke reported that the protein of "allolied" or "toxic" wheat carried the toxicant, and Franke and Painter in 1935 reported that those "toxic" proteins contained selenium which was in organic combination in the protein. There has been much speculation regarding the possibility of selenium replacing sulfur in the amino acids cysteine and methionine. The toxicity of selenium in selenium analogs of these compounds is similar to that of selenium occurring naturally in proteins seleniferous cereals, which indicated that the selenium may be present in the proteins as the analogue of these sulfur amino acids.

Systems Of Producing Fat Yearlings For South Dakota, William Clark Mccone

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

About twelve billion pounds of dressed beef and veal were produced in the United States in 1947 through the conversion of grassland crops into meat by cattle and these cattle lead all classes of American livestock in the consumption of grass and grassland crops. Grass usually represents the principal and cheapest feed for beef cattle. They utilize about one third of the permanent pastures and three fourths of the range areas. Pastures may be regarded as a costly source of feed only on highly productive farm lands, but their use in rotation with cultivated crops on such land is certain …

The Apparent Digestibility By Sheep Of Prairie Hay Harvested At Three Stages Of Maturity, Robert Manseau Jordan

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Grass is the greatest asset of the Northern Great Plains. Grass does and must serve as the basic feed for the flocks and herds of this area. Without grass, much of the Northern Great Plains would be waste land with little or no value. In the states of North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana, about 67 per cent of the total land is in pasture and hay. Seventy five to 95 per cent of the total feed needed by cattle and sheep in the Northern Plains states is furnished by pasture and roughage. With an ever-increasing demand …

A Study Of The Heel Flies, Hypodermia Lineatum Devillers And Hypoderma Novis Degeer, In South Dakota, John A. Lofgren

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The heel flies or ox-warble flies and their larvae, commonly called cattle grubs or warbles, are among the most troublesome and costly insect pests of livestock producers in South Dakota. These parasites attack cattle almost exclusively although they may occur at times in other domestic and in wild animals. Infestations in man have been recorded, but these cases are quite rare. This work deals only with the occurrence of the parasites in cattle.

How the teen-age girl can cover all the necessities of the wardrobe plus the · very special articles of clothing every girl loves might be answered by the slogan "sew your own, and select with care."

Cribbing Corn To Meet Credit Commodity Corporation Loan Requirements, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

How Good a Crib Is Needed To Get a Com Loan? Corn stored in any crib which meets the requirements of floors, roofs and width for the county in which it is stored; will be approved for commodity credit loan at 90% of parity or approximately $1.34 to $1.40 a bushel. (see map on page 1.)

Gardening, Leonard Yager

SDSU Extension Circulars

There is no better way of cutting food costs than to raise food in your own garden. It can't be denied that vegetables are fresh when they are picked right from the garden. Quality and food value of purchased vegetables are lost by delay in getting them to the consumer. Gardening is fun. It provides a useful form of recreation for the entire family.

1947 Oat Seed Treatment Tests, C.M. Nagel

Agricultural Experiment Station Plant Pathology Pamphlets (1942-1962)

Seed treatment of oats and other small grain seed has become of widespread interest and practice amongst South Dakota farmers. In recent years and during the war a number of new experimental seed treatment materials have been produced and some have been placed on the market. The purpose of these experiments was to test the present recommended treatments with the newer materials to determine which of these were most beneficial when applied to oats for the control of certain seed and soil-borne diseases which attack oats.
