The ecological interrelationships of mites occurring in
and near the Hood River Valley, Oregon, pome fruit orchards
were investigated to determine the possibility of an integrated
control program using the species already present.
Survey sampling methods were used to study mites on wild
hosts (Crataegus douglasii Lindl., Crataegus columbiana Howell,...
FORTRAN is readily feasible to translation into ALGOL since
they share many common features. Most of the features that are
unique to FORTRAN can be translated by restricting them somewhat.
The translator will handle explicit declarations of each item
in a block, compensate for the differences in various operators,
compensate...
This was an experimental study designed to compare the effectiveness
of computer-assisted laboratory instruction to teacher-assisted
laboratory instruction based on student achievement in Elementary
Business Statistics. Computer-assisted laboratory materials and an
Elementary Business Statistics achievement test were evaluated.
Procedures
The setting of this experiment was at Southern Oregon State
College,...

In the majority of the less developed countries the small-scale
peasant agriculture is the dominant sector of the countries' economies.
The successes of major agricultural programs in order to increase the
potentials depend primarily on the understanding of the economic organizations
of the peasant households.
This study analyzed over a...
Crops were grown using accepted cultural practices within the limits of experimentation or trials were conducted on growers' fields, Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with two to five replications. Herbicide treatments were applied uniformly with equipment ranging from precision plot sprayers to quart jars (granular applications). Unless...
A heuristic is developed to plan loads for containerized cargo ships. It is designed to serve a port which uses gantry cranes (transtainers) and trucks to handle containers. The model recognizes constraints on ship stability, placing containers in a bay with the proper length, placing refrigerated cargo near electrical outlets,...
This study examined the role perceptions of trustees
in the locally controlled Oregon community college system
and the state controlled Washington community college
system. Authorities in the literature were consulted to
define the "ideal trustee role" and the study determined
which governance system was most effective in fostering
this "ideal...
Following surveys of seaweeds in Oregon and the Caribbean, four algal species were selected for study on the basis of their crude extract biological activity or thin-layer chromatographic characteristics. Extracts were fractionated by normal phase chromatography, including high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Derivatives (methyl esters, acetates, and benzoates) of natural...
