Studies In The Mulga Pastoral Zone. 1. The Grazing Of Wandarrie Grass Associations, D G. Wilcox
Studies In The Mulga Pastoral Zone. 1. The Grazing Of Wandarrie Grass Associations, D G. Wilcox
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE establishment of the Wiluna office of the North-West Branch marked the commencement of a series of investigations into the pastures of the mulga zone.
Unlike the agricultural areas where a fund of knowledge exists on the growth habits of the pastures, the pastures of this area were completely unknown.
The preliminary investigations had to be aimed at forming an understanding of the reactions of the various plants to rain, to temperature and seasonal conditions and to grazing in an area of extremely low rainfall reliability.
Facts And Figures For The Man On The Land, J A. Mallett
Facts And Figures For The Man On The Land, J A. Mallett
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
FARM or station life calls for the exercise of so many different skills that the farmer or pastoralist is usually an accomplished handyman.
For those whose schooldays are far behind them however, the most difficult part of many tasks is that of dealing with the calculations involved, and it is hoped that these facts and figures will serve as a handy aid to those whose mathematical ability has not kept pace with their manual and technical skill.
Weed Research. 7. Weed Control Around The Yard, Geoffrey A. Pearce
Weed Research. 7. Weed Control Around The Yard, Geoffrey A. Pearce
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
MANY farmers and city householders have weed problems around houses and sheds which can be readily overcome by treatment with appropriate herbicides.
The risk from fire through weeds and unslightly growth can easily be removed and an area free of any plant growth can be maintained with little effort for a considerable period.
Kimberley Research Station : A Progress Report, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Kimberley Research Station : A Progress Report, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
INTEREST in the agricultural potential of the Kimberley region in Western Australia dates from its early exploration and settlement in the last century.
Several farming development schemes were considered for the area, but were never implemented.
This could be mainly attributable to lack of knowledge of agricultural potentialities, limitations of the local environment and ways of exploiting the local environment.
Up to the present the economy of the region is almost entirely based upon the extensive production of beef and to a lesser extent, wool.

Some Results With Nitrogen Fertiliser On Cereals At Esperance Plain Research Station, William John Toms
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
ON newly-cleared land at Esperance Plain Research Station the use of sulphate of ammonia on cereals has proved profitable over a number of seasons.
The response to sulphate of ammonia varies markedly with the season.
Comprehensive Survey Of Sedimentation In Lake Mead, 1948-49, W. O. Smith, C. P. Vetter, G. B. Cummings, U.S. Bureau Of Reclamation
Comprehensive Survey Of Sedimentation In Lake Mead, 1948-49, W. O. Smith, C. P. Vetter, G. B. Cummings, U.S. Bureau Of Reclamation
Publications (WR)
Reservoirs are becoming an increasingly prominent feature of the American landscape. Built for flood mitigation and to change a fluctuating river into a dependable source of water for irrigation, power, and other purposes, they are predestined, like natural lakes, to be destroyed sometime following their creation. Sedimentation sooner or later robs most lakes and reservoirs of their capacity to store water. The significance of sedimentation in the life of Lake Mead, the largest artificial reservoir in the world, was realized when the plan for the reservoir was conceived, and an aerial survey of the floor was made in 1935 before …
Drought Feeding Of Sheep, Laurence C. Snook
Drought Feeding Of Sheep, Laurence C. Snook
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
WHEN this talk on drought feeding of sheep was suggested conditions were very serious over large tracts of pastoral country.
Many stations had not received a worthwhile rain for over 12 months and it appeared that grazing animals would have to be fed if they were to survive.
Requests have been received for advice on the cheapest way to keep sheep alive. Drought feeding in any form is a gamble. There is always the risk that the stock will eventually die despite the consumption of much costly feed.
It follows that if an effort is to be made to save …
Water Usage Trials With Bananas On The Gascoyne, W M. Nunn
Water Usage Trials With Bananas On The Gascoyne, W M. Nunn
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE banana industry at Carnarvon is an unusual one by most agricultural standards.
Normally a tropical plant liking relatively humid conditions in a high rainfall, the banana is cultivated at Carnarvon in an area of extremely low rainfall and with relatively low humidity throughout the year.
Water is pumped to irrigate the crop from the sands of the Gascoyne River bed or from bores adjacent to the river course.
Bluebush Seed Supplies, C V. Malcolm
Bluebush Seed Supplies, C V. Malcolm
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
A GREAT deal of publicity has been given of late to the value of bluebush (Kochia brevifolia) as a plant for some types of salt-affected land, particularly in the drier parts of the wheatbelt.
Obtaining seed supplies can be a problem, but fortunately large amounts of seed are not required since once a few bushes are established they will spread seed over the intervening areas.
Thus rates of 1 to 2 lb of seed per acre have been found quite satisfactory.
Deferred Grazing : What It May Mean In The Mulga Region, W M. Nunn
Deferred Grazing : What It May Mean In The Mulga Region, W M. Nunn
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE practice of deferred grazing has been written up in American textbooks and has been applied effectively to sections of the cattle range lands of the United States.
Early attempts to apply the principle in eastern Australia were not very successful, and it remained for our Departmental workers in the North-West and Kimberley Divisions to demonstrate the phenomenal results that could be obtained on grasslands in summer rainfall areas.
Black Spot Of Tomatoes, R F. Doepel
Black Spot Of Tomatoes, R F. Doepel
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
BLACK SPOT DISEASE IS THE MOST SERIOUS FOLIAGE BLIGHT OF TOMATOES IN THIS STATE. IN SEASONS FAVOURABLE TO ITS DEVELOPMENT SEVERE DEFOLIATION AND FRUIT ROTTING ARE EXPERIENCED.
IN Western Australia, black spot, which is also known as early blight and target spot, is a troublesome disease of long standing. It is caused by the fungus Alternaria solani which also attacks potatoes.
Commercial Vegetable Growing In The Perth Metropolitan Region, L T. Jones
Commercial Vegetable Growing In The Perth Metropolitan Region, L T. Jones
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
MARKET gardening with sprinkler irrigation on deep sandy soils around Perth is really a commercial application of hydroponics or sand culture principles.
Provision of a continuous and adequate supply of nitrogen is the major problem. Peat swamps scattered among the sandy areas have higher natural fertility. However, their common problems are drainage, acidity ("sourness"), salt and various special soil deficiencies. Over-liming of acid swamps can cause new problems.
The Development Of Western Australian Sand Plain Soils For Agriculture, Richard Philip Roberts, F. L. Shier
The Development Of Western Australian Sand Plain Soils For Agriculture, Richard Philip Roberts, F. L. Shier
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN a recently published economic survey of the Australian wheat growing industry, it was reported that nearly two-thirds of the farms surveyed in Western Australia were located on lateritic "sand plain."
As a random selection was made of the eighty farms that were visited it is reasonable to conclude that a similar proportion of all the State's wheat producing farms are on that type of country.
This constitutes a remarkable change from the earlier days of wheat belt settlement when the sand plain soils were regarded as virtually useless and by-passed for development.
It is the purpose of this article …
Studies On The Biological Oxidation Of Ferrous Iron And Chalcopyrite, Loral Alvin Decker
Studies On The Biological Oxidation Of Ferrous Iron And Chalcopyrite, Loral Alvin Decker
Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effectiveness of the leaching streams from waste copper ore dumps as a nutrient solution for subsequent biological oxidation and solubilization of sulfide minerals. The copper in the leaching streams is precipitated by displacement with iron. As a result of this procedure the solution is high in ferrous iron concentration and has a pH of near 3.7. The bacteria in the leaching streams are capable of oxidizing ferrous iron to the ferric state and sulfide minerals to sulfates. The effects of temperatures, pH, urea, and aeration rate on the oxidation of the …
Lethal Concentrations And Detoxification Time Of Toxaphene For Goldfish, Gambusia And Rainbow Trout, Gar W. Workman
Lethal Concentrations And Detoxification Time Of Toxaphene For Goldfish, Gambusia And Rainbow Trout, Gar W. Workman
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
In the past few years the Utah Fish and Game Department, as well as the fish and game departments of other states, has been spending fisheries money for fish eradication on both lakes and streams. The Utah Fish and Game Department recently suggested to the University that research be initiated on the subject of toxaphene as a fish poison. Consequently, a better insight into conditions that exist for a given water type could be developed.

An Iron Fulgurite From Nebraska, C. M. Riley
An Iron Fulgurite From Nebraska, C. M. Riley
Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum
From the time of the ancients man has been impressed with the force of lightning and its effect on the rocks at the surface of the earth. It was Saussure in 1786 who first wrote a scientific account of a true fulgurite, and a wealth of literature has been written about the subject since this time. Many unusual fulgurites have been described, some of which may not truly be the result of lightning. The iron fulgurite is a strange conical object about 3 inches high composed mainly of tiny spheres and filaments of metallic iron intermixed with a small amount …

A Study Of Three Photochemical Activities Of Chloroplasts, Jimmy W. Hinkson
A Study Of Three Photochemical Activities Of Chloroplasts, Jimmy W. Hinkson
Theses and Dissertations
Chloroplasts of sugar beet leaves were subjected to treatment by heating, by incubation at pH 8.5 and pH 5.5, by incubation in ion low water, by sonic oscillation, by digestion with enzymes (lysozyme, pancreatin, and lipase), by extraction with digitonin, and by chemical compounds including 8-hydroxy-quinoline, sodium azide, zinc sulfate, phenyl mercuric acetate, potassium cyanide, 1-allylthiourea, 2,4-dinitrophenol, thymol, and p-chloromercuribenzoate. A comparative study was made of the effects of these treatments upon three photochemical reactions (the photoreduction of 2,6- dichlorophenol indophenol, the photoreduction of indigo carmine in the presence of a couple composed of 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol and ascorbic acid, and …

Section XIV: The Industrial Revolution, Classical Economics, and Economic Liberalism
While capitalism was making rapid strides toward dominating English industry, changes were taking place in agriculture which made it more efficient and productive, and which prepared it to be fitted eventually into the industrial capitalistic pattern. Actually, changes in the direction had been occurring in English agriculture since the revival of trade discussed in earlier chapters. [excerpt]

Field Techniques For Sexing And Aging Game Animals, Donald R. Thompson
Field Techniques For Sexing And Aging Game Animals, Donald R. Thompson
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: Publications
The purpose of this booklet is to provide a ready field reference for identification, sexing and aging of common game species. It has purposely been kept in simplified form, presenting only those techniques which can commonly be applied in the field and avoiding those which would require special equipment and skills. Untrained personnel should be given demonstrations of the techniques, and thereafter this reference should serve as a reminder. It is not expected that the reference could successfully be used without such demonstration. Certain of the techniques such as cloaca! examination of waterfowl may require considerable practice by the individual. …
