Grade Herd Recording: Increase In Fees

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

The Superintendent of Dairying (Mr. M. Cullity) has announced that from March 1, 1952, onward, dairy farmers whose herds are included in the Grade Herd Recording scheme will be asked to pay a fee of 5s. per cow, instead of 3s. 6d.

Tobacco Field Day, J A. Mallett

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

Undaunted by grey clouds and misty rain, about 75 people interested in tobacco culture attended a field day at the Tobacco Research Station, Manjimup, on February 15. Fortunately the threatened downpour failed to materialise and the visitors were able to enjoy to the fullest extent an interesting and highly instructive series of demonstrations and lecturettes.

Agricultural Productive Capacity Of South Dakota, Lyle M. Bender

SDSU Extension Circulars

The importance of proper land use and agriculture's capacity to produce is very real today. A continuous, adequate supply of food is essential to peace-time prosperity and is highly important in our present defense plans. Since South Dakota is a food producing state, it's citizens have a responsibility to the nation, as well as to their children and grandchildren, to use our land resources wisely. If such are our responsibilities does it not require farmers and others to look to the adequacy of our food production? What is good land use and how does it affect agriculture's capacity to produce: …

Stretch Your Food Dollar, Mildred Daniel

SDSU Extension Circulars

Whether the homemaker buys much or little food, she needs to know her market, the variety of foods offered arid how to make-economical choices. The increased variety of foods on the market today has made her choice more difficult.

Bryology In Texas - 1. Mosses (Musci), Eula Whitehouse

Field and Laboratory

The bryophyte flora of Texas has hardly been touched. Striking climatic extremes, with variations in time of extreme cold and rainfall, may cause an abundance of plants in one season and a failure in other years. The vast size of the state makes it difficult to cover favorable terrain at propitious seasons. However, the chief cause of the scarcity of collections may be due to the lack of resident collectors who have been and are interested in bryology.

Virus Diseases Of Cereal Crops In South Dakota, J.T. Slykhuis

Agricultural Experiment Station Technical Bulletins (1939-2011)

Virus diseases of wheat, oats and barley have been reported from various parts of the world during the last three decades. In some instances viruses have proven be the real causes diseases formerly attributed to other agents. The earliest reports of a virus disease of wheat concerned a mosaicrosette disease first observed in southeastern Illinois in 1919. The disease caused by a soil-borne virus was later found in a number of localities in the eastern half of the United States, but to date it has not been reported west of the Missouri River. However, other mosaic disease of wheat have …

South Dakota Crop Varieties : Recommendations And Descriptions, Agricultural Extension Service, South Dakota State College

SDSU Extension Circulars

Growing adapted varieties insures more stable production and creates newer wealth: Using unadapted varieties often invites disaster and causes wide fluctuation in feed and grain supplies. It is recognized that there are two important and profitable markets for grain in the state, namely, (1) market through livestock feeding and (2) industrial uses. Therefore, it will be of great advantage to the producer if he will carefully choose superior varieties that fit his area and his market.

The Influence Of Electrolytes On Certain Characteristics Of Corn Starch, Arthur H. Hupp

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

The survey of literature shows that very little work has been done showing the effect of small amounts of electrolytes on the properties of native corn starch. The literature seems to be in agreement in that electrolytes do effect gelatinization when added in small amounts before cooking. Just what role the anion or cation plays seems to be controversial.

Varying amounts of electrolytes with different cations but the same anion were added to different concentrations of native corn starch before cooking. Viscosities were then taken after cooking under a standard cooking procedure. The results seem to indicate that the mono …

The Influence Of Urea & Melamine Formaldehyde Resins Upon Absorbency, Softness, & Dry Strength Characteristics Of Paper, H. B. Herman

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

The literature is reviewed on urea and melamine formaldehyde resins and their possible effects upon softness, absorbency, and physical characteristics. The standard tests of these sheet properties are also defined and reviewed. Experimental work is described in which resin treated sheets were prepared and evaluated. The resultant data is evaluated from the standpoint of property variations and is graphically illustrated. Conclusions are drawn as to the feasibility of resin treatment for soft absorbent sheets.

The Retention Of Wet Strength Resins As Determined By The Kjeldahl Method, Walter J. Redmond

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

True wet strength is not a gauge of water proofness of paper, but is a measure of the residual strength of the paper gauged by the mullen, tear, burst, and fold, after the paper has been completely soaked in water and the resistance to water penetration has been completely broken (1).

To increase the wet-strength of paper, a number of different resins may be applied, and these resins may be broadly classified as anionic or cationic in nature. Of these resins, three particular resins will be discussed, cationic melamine-formaldehyde, anionic urea-formaldehyde, and cationic urea-formaldehyde.
