Distribution Of Mayfly Nymphs (Ephemeroptera) In Streams Of Dallas County, Texas, Louis E. Moore Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Although mayflies are of common occurrence in the Southwest, but little work has been done here on them. Most investigations on this group of insects have been done in New York, the Great Lakes Region, and Canada. Some work has been done in the Rocky Mountain area, and also along the Atlantic coast. Berner (1950) has published an extensive work on the mayflies of Florida. This is the first major work in this field since the book, Biology of Mayflies, by Needham, Traver, & Hsu (1935). Besides these, many minor papers on this group have appeared; but for Texas only …

The North Texas Species Of Plantago (Plantaginaceae), Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

The Plantaginaceae of Texas have been partly or wholly revised by five authors successively: Decaisne in 1852, Gray in 1878, Morris in 1900, 1901, and 1903, Poe in 1928, and Pilger in 1937. None of these revisions is very satisfactory, partly because of reliance on quite unreliable characteristics such as color of plant after drying or number of seeds, partly because of lack of knowledge of distribution patterns of Texas plants, and partly because of limited collections or because different collections were distributed under the same number. In the following synopsis, though written only for the counties of north central …

4-H Project Guide : Swine Production, Clifford Iverson, James O'Connell

SDSU Extension Circulars

Choosing a Breed: The question "Which breed shall I raise" confronts every purebred hog producer. He may have a personal preference which will assist him in choosing a breed. If he has no such preference, it would be well worth while to consider the most popular breed in the community. This procedure will help the breeder to gain popularity, in establishing a reputation, and in attracting more buyers into the community. Each breeder may believe he has the best breed because of size, feeding qualities, higher dressing percentage or some other factor; but there is more difference within breeds than …

Bulletin No. 339 - Consumer Demand For Peaches Of Varying Stages Of Maturity

UAES Bulletins

Studies of consumer demand for peaches of varying maturities were conducted in Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Minneapolis, and Milwaukee during the 1949 peach marketing season. In these tests standard Elberta peaches from Colorado and Utah were used primarily but occasionally when they were not available Elbertas from Idaho and Michigan were used. No Early Elbertas were used.

This study is designed to promote the orderly marketing of peaches and to expand their consumption, that returns to growers may be maintained or increased. The study is primarily concerned with consumer demand for degree of maturity of Colorado and Utah Elberta peaches. …

Bear River: A National Wildlife Refuge, Vanez T. Wilson, Rachel Carson

United States Fish and Wildlife Service: Publications

In the autumn of 1824 a buffalo-hide canoe drifted down the Bear River to its mouth in the Great Salt Lake of Utah. Within sight of that vast inland sea, Jim Bridger must have paused in amazement. Everywhere he looked-in the sky, on the open water, over the marshy borders of the lake-there were birds. It is said that the famous explorer of the western wilderness brought back reports that he had that day seen "millions of ducks and geese."

The Bear River marshes were soon to know years when their waterfowl were numbered, not by millions, but by thousands; …

A New Species Of The Acanthocephalan Genus Arhythmorhynchus From Sandpipers Of Alaska, Harley J. Van Cleave, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

In the spring of 1949, a survey of the parasites of birds of Alaska, especially in the vicinity of Juneau, was conducted by Robert L. Rausch and Ralph B. Williams. Among the Acanthocephala encountered there were specimens of the genus Arhythmorhynchus in two species of sandpipers, Erolia ptilocnemis couesi (Ridgway) (the Aleutian sandpiper) and Erolia alpina pacifica (Vieillot) (the red-backed sandpiper). This parasite was present in such numbers as to make morphological and taxonomic study profitable. The species is clearly distinct from all other members of the genus and is here described as Arhythmorhynchus comptus n. sp.

A Study Of Stimulated Respiration In The Adrenal Gland, Owen Foster Kline Jr.

Biology ETDs

The purpose of this paper is to present certain preliminary observations on what is believed to be completely new special metabolism in the adrenal gland of Hereford cattle. Although no direct correlation between any of the substances isolable from the adrenal gland and the respiratory system to be described in this paper has been obtained, it is nevertheless necessary to present a review of the chemical and medical data available pertaining to these glands.

Ecological Changes In An Overgrazed Grassland Area Resulting From Eleven Years Of Protection Against Livestock Usage, Larry L. Gordon

Biology ETDs

The present paper, like many others already published, contributes to our knowledge of the effect of long time overgrazing and the recovery of lands temporarily retired from utilization. In the present study, an attempt is made to determine the effects of an eleven year recovery of grazing lands following misuse for nearly two centuries. The topics given detailed attention include the flora with particular reference to the grasses and forbs, the fauna with special emphasis on the rodents, and the climatic and edaphic factors.

The area in which the study was conducted is on the east side of the Rio …
