Notes On Texas Crustacea, S. W. Geiser

Field and Laboratory

The accumulation, during the past few years, of data relative to the occurrence in Texas of species of Crustacea not credited, in the usual handbooks, to our fauna, has induced the present writer to assemble in a brief note such observations as seem of particular interest.

An Annotated List Of The Snails Of Dallas County Texas, Elmer P. Cheatum, Charles E. Burt

Field and Laboratory

Although great advances have been made in the study of many groups of Texas animals, the knowledge of the Mol­lusca is still very meager....[I]t is apparent that the study of Texas snails is only just begun and that there exists a need for careful and continued collecting in numerous counties. A molluscan survey of indi­vidual counties has been started by the senior author with the hope of ultimately bringing together a large mass of data to support a comprehensive and authentic treatment of the snails of Texas.

Chicle Exploitation In The Sapodilla Forest Of The Yucatan Peninsula, Cyrus Longworth Lundell

Field and Laboratory

The dominant forest tree of the virgin bush areas of the Yucatan Peninsula is the sapodilla, Achras Zapota L., important commercially as the source of chicle, the basis of chewing gum. From Cape Catoche to Lake Peten it is one of the most frequent species, characterizing this limestone region, which is a phytogeographic unit with a typical flora

A Simplified Method For The Preparation Of Butyric Acid, Lallance A. Adair, E. J. Simmons

Field and Laboratory

As an elective experiment in the class in organic preparations it was decided to make pure butyric acid from n-butyl acetate. To accomplish this the plan followed was (1) the hydrolysis of the ester to obtain n-butyl alcohol, (2) the oxidation of the alcohol to the acid, and (3) the separation of the acid from the mixture.

A Comparison Of Hardness In Dallas Water Before And After Treatment In The City Water Plant, W. D. Frazell, Henry Lewelling

Field and Laboratory

A measurement of the change in hardness produced in raw water by the usual treatment in the city purification plant of Dallas, Texas, was a project undertaken by the class in elementary quantitative analysis. The treatment which would affect the hardness was the addition of ferrous sulphate and lime at the time the water was pumped into the settling basins, and filtration through gravel. In making this comparison, the total alkalinity, temporary hardness, and permanent hardness of raw water and water after treatment, were determined. Raw water samples were taken as the water entered the purification plant; samples of treated …

A Geographic Study Of The Carrollton Area, Robert C. Dunlap, Claude C. Albritton Jr.

Field and Laboratory

The Carrollton Area, as considered in this paper, includes approximately seventy square miles in the northwestern corner of Dallas County. Two small towns, Carrollton (popu­ lation 689) and Farmers Branch (population 400), were im­ portant centers in the early days of settlement, but the rapid growth of Dallas, a few miles to the southeast, has delegated to these communities the roles of satellites to the larger urban center. Three railroads intersect at Carrollton, and both towns are on the Dallas-Denton paved highway.

Effect Of Frequent Clipping On The Development Of Roots And Tops Of Grasses In Prairie Sod, Harold Biswell, J. E. Weaver

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

A study has been made of the regeneration of bluestem grasses in ex- closures in continuously grazed native pastures. The persistence of remnants of the bunches or mats of sod in old pastures for a long period of years is of interest, as is also their gradual but slow rate of recovery under protection when they are greatly weakened. Even in low, fertile, well watered soil, a period of three or four years must elapse before such species as Andropogon furcatus and Sorghastrum nutans produce the usual abundance of flowers stalks and large quantities of viable seed. The first summer …
