Rehabilitation of Bully Creek Reservoir, its tributaries, and segments of the Malheur River system was completed in 1963. All waters treated supported large populations of undesirable fish. The treatment procedures are discussed by project segment within the report. A portion of the funds was appropriated by the U. S. Bureau...
"Crested wheatgrass, beardless wheatgrass, and big bluegrass were
seeded as overstory grasses. Streambank wheatgrass, canby bluegrass,
bulbous bluegrass, and Ladak alfalfa were seeded as companion species.
Pure and mixed stands were seeded on sagebrush-bunchgrass
range in eastern Oregon to compare yield and competitiveness. The
grasses were planted in 1956, 1957,...
The single-cross and most F₂ progenies of 19 genotypes of
tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea, Schreb. ) were used to study the
breeding behavior of forage yield. Parental genotypes were selected
for high self-sterility, high chromogen and high crude protein. These
were studied in two groups of nine intermediate and ten...
A liquid sulfur dioxide battery, such as K/KCl SbCl₅ (0.25
molar) + IBr₃ (15 %wt) + SO₂ (1)/carbon matrix is shown to have an
open circuit voltage greater than 3.70 volts and an initial voltage of
3.15 volts, decreasing to 2.40 volts in 10 minutes at a current density
of...
The purpose of this project was to study the reactions of 1-(α-pyridyl)-3-buten-1-ol (compound I) and to determine whether or
not the products of some of its reactions are quinolizinium salts.
Reaction of compound I with bromine or iodine yields halide
salts (when no external cooling is applied) instead of the...
Some forms of bacterial respiration do not involve molecular
oxygen but instead utilize other hydrogen acceptors for oxidation
of the substrate. Various organic and inorganic acceptors may be
used. In the present study, the inorganic radicals, nitrate and
nitrite, were investigated. Preliminary evidence indicated that
nitrate and oxygen are able...
Because the life processes of the plant are related in a complex
way to the balance between the water demand of the atmosphere and
the water availability to the plant root, an exploration of the dynamic
status of water in the plant is very important. The stomata constitute
the main...
The first cycle of seismic waves recorded at distances of 45,
300 and 355 km. from the GNOME nuclear explosion was used to determine
whether the near source wave characteristics at 0.3 km.
could be determined from distance measurements. Both head wave
and body wave propagation were considered. First the...
Cardicola alseae is a blood dwelling trematode found in the
fishes Salmo clarki henshawi and Salmo gairdneri gairdneri. Eggs
which were ovoid in shape and non-operculate left the adult and passed
to the gill capillaries of the secondary lamellae. The miracidium was
ovoid, 0.070 mm. long by 0.052 mm. wide,...

A method of calculating the normal vibrations of polymer molecules
is presented in detail. The method is based on that used by
Schachtschneider and Snyder in their analysis of polypropylene but
has not heretofore been published. The factoring of the infinite matrix
and reduction to the coordinates of the unit...
Consider the estimation of the category proportions in a
multinomial population from a sample which is "censored" in the
sense that under an appropriate, unknown permutation of the sample
categories, the population proportions are all known. We are considering
the estimation of an ordered set of sample proportions, known
except...

Miller Lake was chemically treated with toxaphene on September 16, 1958 to destroy a population of parasitic lamprey (E.tridentatus) and Tui Chub (Siphatelep bicolor). Toxaphene was applied at the rate of 0.04 ppm. No lamprey or fish have been collected in the lake since the chemical treatment. Work since 1959...
