Digestibility experiments were carried out with dairy heifers to
determine the digestibility of orchard grass, Dactylis glomerata, and
also to evaluate the accuracy of various indicator techniques in pasture
digestibility experiments. Chromic oxide was used as an external
indicator to predict fecal dry matter output in three digestion
trials. Cut...
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...
A study was made of the infrared absorption spectrum for
cyanate ion in KCl and KBr host lattices containing small amounts of
calcium or barium ion. Both pellets and single crystals were
scanned during the course of this study. The spectra of the barium
or calcium doped crystals contained many...
Nomia melanderi Cockerell is one of the most efficient pollinators of alfalfa in Eastern Oregon. Emergence begins in June, usually reaches its peak in early July, and may continue into early August. Male emergence precedes female emergence by four or five days. For the first few weeks of this time,...

First is the theory that woman is inferior to man
and that since she is the "negative" of man's masculine
nature, she cannot develop her humanity to the fullest
extent without fusion with...
This thesis presents an economic comparison of three different
highway networks which serve an area of 64 miles by 83 miles in size.
Each network is designed to carry the same traffic between any two
towns but is different in total length.
Costs of right of way, excavation, pavement and...
