Studies Concerning The Elimination Of Experimental Error In Comparative Crop Tests, T. A. Kiesselbach Jun 1918

Studies Concerning The Elimination Of Experimental Error In Comparative Crop Tests, T. A. Kiesselbach

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

It is apparent that many sources of error have unconsciously entered into comparative crop yield tests. The very important matter of overcoming variation in soil conditions as a source of experimental error has been quite extensively studied and reported by various investigators during the past decade. The means suggested for reducing such error have been (1) repetition of plats and (2) correction of yields according to check plats planted to a uniform variety or treatment at stated intervals. Both methods have proved of value and a combination of both may often be used advantageously. Some danger always exists of error …


A Theorem On Semi-Continuous Functions, Henry Blumberg Jan 1918

A Theorem On Semi-Continuous Functions, Henry Blumberg

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

Recently G. C. Young and A. Denjoy have communicated theorems—those in Denjoy's memoir are of an especially comprehensive character—dealing, in particular, with point sets where the four derivatives of a given continuous function are identical. It is the purpose of this note to treat an analogous problem that arises when "derivative" is replaced by "saltus." However, instead of confining ourselves to "saltus," we prove a more general theorem that applies essentially to all semi-continuous functions. We preface the proof of this theorem with the following

Drainage Districts Of Southeastern Nebraska, Calvin Turner Moore

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

Throughout certain parts of the United States the importance of drainage is receiving increased recognition each year. The scope of investigations and operations covers many localities that are affected with "springy" lands, swamps, shallow lakes, overflowed lands, and tide lands.

Nebraska Green Quartzite An Import Ant Future Industry, Erwin H. Barbour

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

ln southern Harlan and Franklin counties, there occur many acres of green quartzite which must be of commercial consequence when made available. It is a neglected resource upon which important industries are sure to be based. With the development of this bed in view, the Nebraska Geological Survey has examined this area. and through this leaflet wishes to place the results before possible investors.

Nebraska Fossils Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour Jan 1915

Nebraska Fossils Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

This paper must not be mistaken for a report on the fossils of Nebraska. It is merely a circular letter to correspondents describing and figuring those fossils only which occasion frequent comment. In two recent papers of the Survey consideration was given to the common minerals and rocks of Nebraska, and it seems opportune to briefly discuss our fossils in a like manner. Probably no other State can boast of such a well-preserved and varied fauna.


Nebraska Rocks Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour Jan 1915

Nebraska Rocks Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

This leaflet it intended to serve as an answer to correspondents who make inquiry about the rocks of Nebraska1. Unfortunately for those interested in such matters, the rocks of the State are few in number, and are deeply buried from view by sand and soil, so there are thousands of square miles in which even a pebble is a rarity. That our rocks are level and undisturbed is practically true. Still there are some surprisingly interesting folds and faults.


The Round Ligament Of Nebraska Proboscideans, Erwin H. Barbour Jan 1915

The Round Ligament Of Nebraska Proboscideans, Erwin H. Barbour

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

Comparisons of the acetabula of various mastodons and mammoths common to Nebraska show conclusively that absence of the round ligament is not a characteristic of the proboscidea, as generally accepted. From the specimens in our collections, there is evidence that the ligament was not on! y present, but was uncommonly large and well developed in the earlier Nebraska proboscideans. Examination of material collected since 1891, and preserved in the cabinets of the Nebraska State Museum. and the Morrill Geological Collections, makes it apparent that all Nebraska proboscideans had round ligaments, though perhaps the latest survivors did not.

During the field season of 1913, while exploring the Pliocene beds of Brown County, Mr. A. C. Whitford, a Fellow in the Department of Geology, University of Nebraska, discovered the mandible of a new machaerodont cat. His work in this region was in the interest of the Nebraska Geological Survey and the Morrill Geological Expeditions.1
