A Consideration Of Methods Of Securing Historical Price And Production Data And A Survey Of Their Relationship For South Dakota, Owen L. Dawson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In our studies of prices we will analyze the present prices; discuss the use of price date now available and consider methods of collecting further data. As South Dakota is one of several states or countries producing a surplus of crops and livestock for market, production for the United States and for the world, of certain products, must be considered as affecting the farm prices in South Dakota.

Small Fruit Culture For South Dakota, A. L. Ford

SDSU Extension Circulars

It can no longer be said that small fruits are not successful in South Dakota. Everywhere in the state people are having remarkable success with the small fruits providing they confine their efforts only to the hardy varieties. It is true that there are some of the small fruits that cannot be recommended for use here, because of their lack of hardiness, but there are plenty of hardy ones from which to choose. In the near future there are almost certain to be more hardy varieties developed by our plant breeders.

Suggestions On The Incorporation Of Cooperative Livestock Shipping Associations Under The Laws Of South Dakota, M. R. Benedict, Turner Wright

SDSU Extension Circulars

The cooperative shipping of livestock form South Dakota points has become so general that nearly every farm is familiar with the workings of the Cooperative Shipping Association. During the early stages of this movement; that is, up to the present time, these organizations have been for the most part loosely formed, unincorporated associations of producers with no very permanent existence. Where they were well managed, they have accomplished fairly well the principal purposes of a livestock shipping association; namely, the narrowing of the handling margin at the local points, better grading of the stock shipped, and the elimination of excessive …

Take The Gamble Out Of Farm Leases, South Dakota State University Cooperative Extension

SDSU Extension Circulars

Prices and costs are so uncertain that many farm leases, particularly those requiring the payment of cash, should be revised before March first, according to specialists in land economics of the United States Department of Agriculture. In a review of the situation by the Office of Farm Management and Farm Economics it is pointed out that we may not have seen the last of radical price changes, such as lead to unexpected losses or gains to landlord, tenant, or both when bound by inflexible cash features in their lease contract. The more widespread instances in which the lease is inflexible …

Rammed Earth Walls For Buildings, U.S. Department Of Agriculture

Rammed Earth Collection (1923 - 1959)

Earth has been used for building dwellings from time immemorial. One method of use, superior to others, and which was known to the Romans has been preserved by tradition .t o modern times. This method consists of ramming slightly moist, specially selected earth, without the addition of straw or other material, between movable forms, and is known by itsFrench name, " pise de terre," which means "rammed earth."

Little information has been published on rammed earth in …

Adequate Diet For The School Child, Susan Z. Wilder

SDSU Extension Circulars

Ease of digestion and adequacy in protein, minerals, and vitamins are absolutely essential for the school child. The results of mistakes in the feedings of school children are not seen as quickly as in the case of younger children. Mistakes in feeding at this age may result in serious diseases conditions later on. The adolescent child probably requires as much or more food than the adult because he is growing rapidly. The three food needs for both children and adults are those to supply building materials for repair and growth, fuel foods for heat and energy, and to take care …
