In the search for better methods of agricultural management,
considerable attention has been turned to the
corporation as a useful form of business organization.
Certain farmers and ranchers can simplify their financial
planning and management by using the corporate form.
This is particularly so in "estate management," the accumulating,
maintaining,...
A study was conducted to determine the chemical nature and
the biological treatability of log pond water. Various analyses including
total solids, volatile solids, suspended solids, dissolved
oxygen, pH, COD, BOD₅, BOD₂₀, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, nitrate
nitrogen, phosphate, and PBI were performed on water samples
from each of the four...
The subject of this thesis is an evaluation of a louver facility
in the Lemhi River, Idaho. The louver facility was designed to guide
juvenile chinook salmon and steelhead trout into a trap in order to
sample downstream migrant populations. The study was designed to
determine: (1) if the catch...
The treatability of waters from four log ponds in Oregon by
physical and chemical treatment methods
was investigated.
Treatment processes included sand filtration, activated carbon contact and
coagulation with aluminum sulfate.
Preliminary studies were made at each log pond to determine
the homogeneity of the pond water for sampling
purposes...
Recent emphasis on range improvement of sagebrush-bunch-grass
types in Oregon has underscored the need for better understanding
of their importance to deer winter range management. The
objectives of this study were to evaluate the impact of various sagebrush
control practices on the composition, production, and utilization
of deer forage plants...
Taste responses of the Columbian black-tailed deer,
Odocoileus hemionus columbianus (Richardson), were determined
by use of the two-choice preference test method, where the choices
were tap water and tap water-chemical solutions in ascending
concentrations. The chemicals tested were: the sugars, glucose
and sucrose; the sodium salts of chloride (NaC1) and...
Seventy-two species of Blennocampinae in 21 genera and six tribes
are known from the Nearctic region. The adults and known larvae of
all species and genera are keyed, described and illistrated. A
definition of the subfamily, a review of previous work, a table of
host-plant associations, and a discussion of...
There are essentially no publications dealing with the skin toxin
of Taricha granulosa. This study has undertaken investigations with
this toxin in an attempt to determine its potency and its effect on the
newt's potential predators.
Test solutions were made by macerating a known volume of newt
skin in a...
