Feeding Milking Shorthorn Steers, M. L. Baker, V. H. Arthaud, C. H. Adams

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The objectives of the feeding work were to provide the producer with feed-lot data and where possible with slaughter data for Milking Shorthorn steers. As a definite breeding research program with the Milking Shorthorn herd was planned, it also was believed that information about the beef-making qualities of the steers should be of equal importance with milk and butterfat production records.

Geographic Variation In Toads Of The Debilis Group Of Bufo, Ottys Sanders, Hobart M. Smith

Field and Laboratory

In 1938, Taylor (1938,513) for the first time pointed out the existence of two distinct forms of toads in the assemblage previously referred to Bufo debilis. These he designated as the species Bufo insidior Girard and Bufo debilis Girard. Since then much confusion has reigned, especially with respect to the range and status of the southeasterly form regarded as B. debilis.

Phenotypic Variations Of Erigeron Strigosus Muhl. (Compositae) In Eastern Texas, Robert L. Van Vleet

Field and Laboratory

In Texas, Erigeron strigosus Muhl. shows great variation, having: (1) spring forms which frequently resemble E. tenuis T.&G. and which have strigose, usually scanty pubescence; (2) taller summer forms with dense, predominantly spreading pubescence; and (3) autumn forms of tall plants having conspicuous basal rosettes.

A Study Of The Correlation Of Acid Production And Population Growth In Escherichia Coli, Proteus Morgani And Shigella Sonnei, Lolita R. Fritz

Biology ETDs

During the course of growth in a bacterial culture, cellular development and reproduction take place in a regular and orderly manner. It is possible to observe definite phases in the normal growth of a culture. Some method of evaluation of the growth must be used in order to determine the population change or the effect of chemical and physical environment on bacterial cells. Numerous methods have been tried, employing the total population number or rate of production is used in this investigation as an indication of population growth of Escherichia coli, Proteus morgani and Shigella sonnei.

Gifts For Family And Friends, Anna D. Walker

SDSU Extension Circulars

Part of the joy in giving gifts comes from the making of something special for a friend or family member. The giving of gifts to mark such events as anniversaries, Christmas and Easter is a long established custom. Looking back into history, we read that tribute was given to show homage to royalty and other people of importance. It was thought that the rarer and richer the gift, the greater was the love and respect shown. Rare spices, perfumes, gold and jewels obtained by the giver at great expense and often much hardship were considered suitable gifts for royalty. People …

Some Studies On The Consortes Of The Norway Rat In Utah County, Utah, Roy J. Myklebust

Theses and Dissertations

This study of the Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus (Erxleben) and its consortes was undertaken in Utah County to determine : (1} the frequency of infection of Trichinella spiralis (Owen) Railliet, the causative organism of trichinosis in humans, (2) the populations of fleas, lice and mites on the rat, and (3) the occurence of other consortes. This study covered a period from January 1951 through June, 1951. Additional records were made available from studies being made by the Department of Zoology and Entomology, Brigham Young University on parasitic arthropods (listed as Project Ten). The species ot fleas, and those mites which …

Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska. Vii. On Some Helminths From Arctic Marmots With The Description Of Catenotaenia Reggiae N. Sp. (Cestoda: Anoplocephalidae), Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Among Alaskan mammals examined for helminthic parasites during 1950 was a series of marmots, Marmota caligata broweri Hall and Gilmore, 1934, from the Brooks Range, Arctic Alaska. The animals were collected a few miles south of Tolugak Lake (lat. 68° 24' N, long. 151° 26' W), and from the vicinity of Kanayut Lake, about 15 miles northeast of Tolugak Lake. This distinctive marmot has been hitherto represented in collections only by the three specimens comprising the type material. In addition to greatly extending the known range of this form, the collection of these specimens also contributes the first information on …
