The future expansion of agricultural production in the Willamette
Valley will depend to a large degree upon the feasibility of introducing
irrigated agriculture on the poorly drained soils in the Valley. A
r earch program has been initiated to investigate the feasibility of
rigation on poorly drained soils with the...
Three trials with wethers and four trials with steers were
conducted to determine some of the effects of sodium bicarbonate,
calcium hydroxide and/or transfer of ruminal contents on ruminant
adjustment to abrupt changes to concentrate rations.
Lambs fed a basal concentrate diet plus sodium bicarbonate had
the highest average feed...
Humus is one of the important factors controlling the soil
formation process. The nutrients released from it during the decomposition
process also affect the growth and reproduction of the
forest. The type of humus formed is influenced by the nature of the
forest litter and the environment in which it...
During the spring of 1963 and 1964 an investigation of a small
mammal community was made in McDonald Forest, near Corvallis, Oregon.
The revised North American Census of Small Mammals procedure was
used, and from this census the species composition of the community
was determined. The relationships of several genera...
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a required
mathematics content course upon prospective elementary school
teachers at Brigham Young University. The investigation consisted of
three major areas: (1) attitudes toward mathematics, (2) basic mathematical
understanding, and (3) the relationship between certain selected
variables.
Procedure...
An evaluation of the meteorological usefulness of a maser RF
amplifier on an AN/MPS-34 X-band weather radar indicates that there
are both advantages and disadvantages to its use. The problems
associated with the maser used in this study included tuning problems,
loss of gain through loss of liquid helium and...
