Circular No. 29 - The Control Of Rodent Pests: Directions For Killing Ground Squirrels, Pocket Gophers, Rabbits, And Field Mice, Charles J. Sorenson

UAES Circulars

Rodent pests cause heavy damage to the crops of Utah. The four most destructive of these pests are ground squirrels, pocket gophers, rabbits, and field mice.

The most effective method for the destruction of these animal pests is the use of poisoned baits. A very important factor in their control is the natural enemies.

The formulae recommended in the following pages have been, and are now being, used with excellent success in this and neighboring states.

Circular No. 28 - Contagious Abortion In Mares And Cows, H. J. Frederick

UAES Circulars

Contagious abortion is a cause of great loss to the stock growers of Utah. There is an urgent demand from nearly all parts of this State for information relative to this disease. In an effort to satisfy this demand a few facts regarding the disease as they are now known are here presented. It is not the purpose of this circular to report original research, but merely to describe the disease as it exists among animals in this State. The causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and methods of combating and controlling this great menace to the livestock industry are all considered.

Changing Diatoms Of Devils Lake, Clarence Elmore

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

During the summer of 1915 I spent some time at the Biological Station of the University of North Dakota at Devils Lake, investigating the diatoms of the lake. Before this considerable diatom material had been sent to me by Dr. R. T. Young of the University, who is conducting the biological survey of the lake.
The immediate practical object in the survey is to determine the organisms in the lake in relation to the fish that might be able to subsist upon them, and diatoms being the most abundant of microscopic plants, deserve special attention in this connection. At present …

Notes Biologiques Sur Les Mylabres, Auguste Cros

Co

Il y a moins d'un demi-siècle, l'on ignorait encore complètement l'histoire du développement des Mylabres, et leurs formes larvaires étaient totalement inconnues. C'est seulement en 1876 que Valéry MAYET (Sur les triongulins des Mylabres, Ann. Soc. ent. Fr. [1876], Bull., p. 196) donna les premières indications sur ce sujet et décrivit sommairement la larve primaire d'un de ces insectes, le Zonabris quadripunctata L., mais sa découverte passa à peu près inaperçue.

Further Studies In The Ecotone Between Prairie And Woodland, R. J. Pool, J. E. Weaver, F. C. Jean

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

A series of intensive investigations of the ecological features of the tension zone between prairie and woodland in the Mississippi valley was begun by Weaver and Thiel in 1915. These studies were continued for two seasons in Minnesota and were also extended to the prairies of eastern Nebraska in 1916. These investigations represent the first attempt to attack the prairie-forest problem on a comprehensive scale by means of the quantitative methods of modern ecology. Some of the results secured from these studies have been published as the first paper of a series planned to deal with critical investigations in the …

On A New Species Of Otter From Nebraska, Myron Harmon Swenk

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

In 1908 I referred our Nebraska otters to L. c. sonora (Rhoads), basing this conclusion on the mounted specimen in the University Museum, because of its large size and pallor, that being the only Nebraska specimen in any collection in the state at that time, and, so far as known to me, the only Nebraska specimen extant except the young female in the U. S. National Museum mentioned above. In 1915 I repeated this identification. The taking of a fine old male otter with a perfect skull in eastern Nebraska in 1916 reopened the whole question, and a close study …
