Gardening, Leonard Yager Mar 1948

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.


Strawberries In Nebraska, C. C. Wiggans Mar 1948

Strawberries In Nebraska, C. C. Wiggans

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars

The strawberry is more widely grown than any other fruit in Nebraska and is the most valuable of the small fruits. Its total value is greater than that of any of the other fruit crops grown with the exception of apples, cherries, and grapes. It thrives well in all sections where moisture is not too limited and is found almost always in home gardens. It is also produced commercially to some extent, especially near the larger cities in the eastern end of the state.


Aspen Defiberization And Refining Of Product, Robert Craig Jr. Mar 1948

Aspen Defiberization And Refining Of Product, Robert Craig Jr.

Aspen Bibliography

Because of the great demand for wood fiber and because there is an abundance of aspen available1/ for this purpose, its conversion into a usable fiberized material offers possibilities. It also affords an outlet for low-quality bolts developed in any aspen logging operation or from land of poor quality.


1947 Oat Seed Treatment Tests, C.M. Nagel Mar 1948

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.


Dendrouterina Botauri N. Sp., A Cestode Parasitic In Bitterns, With Remarks On Other Members Of The Genus, Robert L. Rausch Mar 1948

Dendrouterina Botauri N. Sp., A Cestode Parasitic In Bitterns, With Remarks On Other Members Of The Genus, Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

A single cestode belonging to the genus Dendrouterina Fuhrmann, 1912, was taken from the small intestine of a least bittern, Ixobrychus e. exilis (Gmelin), collected by the writer on May 31, 1945, at Buckeye Lake, Ohio. Considerable difficulty was experienced in obtaining adequate material of this cestocde, although bitterns were collected in Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Manitoba. A second infected bird, an American bittern, Botaurus l. lentiginosus (Monatgu), was collected on April 24, 1947, at Horicon Marsh, Wisconsin. Three specimens of Dendrouterina were obtained from this bird.
Unfortunately, since refrigeration was not available in the field, the scolices of all …

Bulletin No. 330 - Peach Orchard Soil Mangement Studies, A. L. Stark, D. W. Thorne Feb 1948

Bulletin No. 330 - Peach Orchard Soil Mangement Studies, A. L. Stark, D. W. Thorne

UAES Bulletins

Peaches are the most important fruit crop in Utah. The total number of peach trees is greater and the volume of fruit produced for market is larger than of any other fruit. Most of the peaches are produced by a large number of growers who have small plantings. These small orchards contribute substantially to the total income of the growers and it is, therefore, important that maximum yields of high quality fruit be obtained from limited acreage.

A survey of the fruit production problems in Utah reported in 1938 (13) indicated that poor soil management practices were important in contributing …

The Bur Clovers (Medicago) Of Texas, Frank H. Wagner Jan 1948

The Bur Clovers (Medicago) Of Texas, Frank H. Wagner

Field and Laboratory

Originally all species of Medicago found in Texas were introduced and cultivated for grazing, soil improvement and erosion control. All species here treated are now found wild. The keys are based on specimens in the University of Texas Herbarium and Southern Methodist University Her barium; specimens in the Milwaukee Public Museum were also consulted for study.


The Vetches And Pea Vines (Vicia And Lathyrus) Of Texas, Lloyd H. Shinners Jan 1948

The Vetches And Pea Vines (Vicia And Lathyrus) Of Texas, Lloyd H. Shinners

Field and Laboratory

In technical keys, the genus Lathyrus . is characterized as having a squarely truncate stamen tube and styles hairy near the apex on the inner side only, while Vicia has an obliquely truncate stamen tube and styles hairy on the back or all around. These differences are neither well-marked nor easy to see, especially in most Texas species, which have very small flowers. For convenience the species of both genera are here treated together in a single key.

Botanizing With "Marcus E. Jones, A.M." In Texas, V. L. Cory Jan 1948

Botanizing With "Marcus E. Jones, A.M." In Texas, V. L. Cory

Field and Laboratory

Prior to the printing of my paper, "A new Loco from the Edwards Plateau of Texas" (Rhodora, vol. 32, January, 1930), possibly because he had published a revision of the genus Astragalus, I began a correspondence with Marcus E. Jones. He drove from Claremont, California, in the spring of 1930, to visit me at the Experiment Station thirty miles southeast of Sonora, Texas, on the Edwards Plateau. In his Contributions to Western Botany No. 17 (September 3, 1930), Jones does not mention meeting me in Texas; but on page 21 he does mention my name in dedicating a new species …

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

SDSU Extension Circulars

Home Life Project “B” Plan: Bedroom or Child’s Room. Would you like to fix over your room, actually doing some of those things that you've always dreamed? Fixing over your room can be fun and will give you the opportunity to use your imagination and express your own ideas. Your bedroom used for sleeping and dressing, study or reading should be arranged for ease and comfort. A room simply furnished may be made much more attractive than one cluttered up with unnecessary pieces of furniture that have neither use nor beauty.

Bulletin No. 329 - Cost And Efficiency Of Producing Sugar Beets In Utah, 1945, Ernest M. Morrison Jan 1948

Bulletin No. 329 - Cost And Efficiency Of Producing Sugar Beets In Utah, 1945, Ernest M. Morrison

UAES Bulletins

Early in the history of Utah the pioneers became interested in sugar-beet production. In 1852 John Taylor, Elias Morris and others, under the direction of Brigham Young, obtained machinery from France for refining beet sugar, transported it across the Atlantic Ocean by boat, up the Mississippi River to Fort Leavenworth, and thence across the plains to Utah by ox teams. The factory was established in what is now known as Sugar House in the southeastern part of Salt Lake City. These initial efforts proved to be unsuccessful primarily because the "open kettle" method employed was never satisfactory.

Not until 1891 …
