A Study Of The Sculpture Of The Chorion Of The Eggs Of Eighteen South Dakota Grasshoppers (Acridiidae), Raymond Cecil Bushland

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The most destructive grasshoppers that occur in South Dakota are those belonging to the genus Melanoplus. Of those, the common and harmful species are Melanoplus bivittatus (Say) and Melanoplus differentialis (Thomas). Other species that are of considerable economic importance, and, at times, fully as important as the two species mentioned, are Melanoplus femur-rubrum (Deg.) and Melanoplus mexicanus (Sauss.). Before attempting to work out a plan for grasshopper control, it is desirable at times to know what species are to be encountered. The control may vary to some extent for the different species. It has been found that Melanoplus differentialis hatches …

The Effect Of Fertilizer Applications On The Quality And The Quantity Of The Oil In Flaxseed, Clarence O. Stockland

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A considerable number of economic seeds are characterized by the presence of oil instead of starch as reserved material. The flax plant produces an oil-bearing seed which yields either by pressure or by extraction an oil which is used chiefly in the manufacture of paints and varnishes, and in the manufacture of linoleum, oil cloth, printer's ink, and patent leather. The oil obtained from flexseed is known as linseed oil and is one of a class of fatty oils known as drying oil. When exposed to the air the oil absorbs oxygen, forming a compound known ad linoxyn which constitutes …

Reaction To Price Change By South Dakota Farmers, John Gordon Mcneely

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

South Dakota is one of the newest of the important agricultural states. In 1900, many parts of South Dakota were still in the process of being settled. The increase in the amount of land in crops continued without interruption until the time of the World War. We then find a greater demand for farm products than ever before. Inspired by the double incentive of high prices and helping to win the war, South Dakota and United States agriculture had expanded to unprecedented levels by 1920.

An Analysis Of The Bank Credit Situation In South Dakota, Roy James Smith

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study was planned as a preliminary survey of the short time credit problems of South Dakota. Although considerable information had been gathered concerning long time credits, no investigation had been made in the short time credit field; consequently the study of short time credits was regarded merely as an extension of the previous field of study. An investigation in this field was expected to be valuable since the efficient operation of the farming business depends in many instances on ready access to a cheap supply of short time credit.

A Key To Differentiate Nymphal Stages Of Melanoplus Differentialis (Thomas) From Those Of Melanoplus Bivittatus (Say), (Orthoptera); Also, Descriptions Of Instars And A Key For Identification Of Nymphal Stages Of These Two Species, Gerald Bishop Spawn

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

During the past few years South Dakota and neighboring states have been confronted with serious outbreaks of locusts. Whole crops of small grain and corn have been destroyed by the voracious insect hordes which at times left only bare ground where once had stood waving fields of grain. Chief among the aggressors have been the two species, Melanoplus differentialis (Thomas), the Differential Locust, and Melanoplus bivittatus (Say), the Two-Striped Locust. The contents of this paper include studies of these two species.

Reliability And Adequacy Of South Dakota Farm Price Data, John Muehlbeier

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The reliability and adequacy of South Dakota farm price data cannot be stated with any great degree of precision. The statistical measures of reliability in this analysis are based upon the conditions of simple sampling of which the conclusions cannot be stated in absolute terms but must be expressed in probability. The sampling as done by the Division of Crop and Livestock Estimates is known as weighted stratified sampling, a departure from simple sampling, but considered to result in greater representativeness. Recognizing the limitations of the measures in this study, certain conclusions can still be drawn concerning the reliability of …

The Influence Of Feed And Sunshine On The Vitamin D Content Of Cow’S Milk, Ben L. Robinson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

For the past several years there has been a growing tendency among dairymen, particularity those located near the large cities, to keep their cows in the barn much of the time. Under such a system of management the cows receive but little direct sunshine. In some localities it is also possible to find many cows which are fed the year around on dry feed receiving very little, if any, green food, either as soiling crops or as pasture. From many standpoints such practices are, of course, necessary and desirable, but from the standpoint of the nutritional value of the milk …

The Latex System In The Root Of Taraxacum Officinale, Eleanor Kelton Evenson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In 1930 Mr. Emil Madsen of this laboratory began some experimental work upon the roots of dandelions, for the purpose of determining the means by which a dandelion root, which has been cut off below the surface of the ground, regenerates new shoots. He found that such roots form adventitious buds in exposed pericycle and secondary phloem. Several such buds may be formed in a single root. They grow and appear above the ground as leafy shoot.

An Economic Study Of The Food Habits Of The Ring-Necked Pheasant In South Dakota, H.C. Severin, South Dakota Department Of Game And Fish

Natural Resource Management Faculty Publications

The economic status in South Dakota of the ring-necked pheasant (Phasinus colchicus torquatus Gmelin X Phasianus colchicus colchicus L.) has turned out to be a controversial matter of no small importance with the citizenry of the State. This bird was introduced into South Dakota mainly thru the efforts and funds of the State Department of Game and Fish, and thru this department the pheasant was protected form slaughter by hunters, and permitted to multiply. When it was believed that the pheasants hasd established themselves in a county and multiplied sufficiently to warrant an open season , such an open season …

The Development Of The Floral Organs Of Glycyrrhiza Lepidota, Richard L. Matteson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This is the first of a proposed series of papers, coming from the Botanical Laboratory of South Dakota State College, on the developmental anatomy of the prairie legumes. The recorded investigations of the legumes deal mostly with the cultivated species, and the greater part of this work considers the taxonomy and cytology of flowers. These papers proposed above deal with the floral development and the floral vascular anatomy of this family.
