Silt Project, Colorado: Colorado River Storage Project, U.S. Department Of Agriculture
Silt Project, Colorado: Colorado River Storage Project, U.S. Department Of Agriculture
Elusive Documents
The purpose of this report is to present information regarding the soil capabilities for irrigation, the present and future land use and production pattern, the costs associated with on-farm irrigation development, prospective size and type of farm, direct agricultural benefits and probable farm incomes with proposed irrigation development for the Silt project. In addition to the agricultural phases, this report deals with the impacts of the project on the national forests and the relationship of watershed conditions to the project.
This report also is intended to aid the Bureau of Reclamation in developing their Definite Plan Report, and to provide …
Rabbit Control In 1960, C Marshall
Rabbit Control In 1960, C Marshall
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
IN the year 1859, an enthusiastic sportsman in Victoria took delivery from the clipper "Lightning" of a small consignment of wild European rabbits which he joyfully released on his estate at Barwon Park, near Geelong, in order to assure himself of some rough shooting.
He was not the only rabbit importer on record—tame rabbits were brought into Australia before and after 1895 and doubtless there were other importations of the wild rabbit—but he is generally credited—or discredited—with having triggered off the rabbit plague.
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 …
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. …

Nebraska Deer, William Bailey Jr., George Schildman, Phillip Agee, C. G. Pritchard
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: Publications
IN COMMON with the experience of most states, Nebraska's deer herds were reduced to a very low level by excessive harvests in our early history. Most American big-game animals were overharvested in the early history of this nation because of commercialization. Buffalo were killed for their hides, deer for their meat. This slaughter continued as long as the hunter (or poacher) could sell his take at a profit. Modem game management and public opinion reversed this trend. Deer are on the way back all over America, and in some states the protection-complex was so strong that deer were restored to …

The Effect Of Grass Reseeding In Sagebrush Lands On Sage Grouse Populations, Richard W. Trueblood
The Effect Of Grass Reseeding In Sagebrush Lands On Sage Grouse Populations, Richard W. Trueblood
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The particular purpose of this study was to determine the effects of large-scale sagebrush reseeding projects on sage grouse populations and whether such effects were partly or entirely beneficial, neutral, or detrimental to the survival of such populations.
During two seasons of field work, the studies initiated on a short-time basis had the following specific objectives:
- To compare the utilization by sage grouse of reseeded and non-reseeded lands for the seasonal activities of mating, nesting, raising a brood, fall coveying, and wintering.
- To compare the utilization by sage grouse of reseeded and non-reseeded lands for daily activities of feeding, watering, …
Pellet Seeding On Sagebrush Range, Gordon E. Gatherum
Pellet Seeding On Sagebrush Range, Gordon E. Gatherum
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Seeding deteriorated range lands efficiently and economically has become one of the most promising means of improving the agricultural economy of the western range states. By providing the most rapid means of increasing the quantity and improving the quality of forage for livestock, and aiding in the prevention of soil erosion, artificial seeding contributes directly to the stability of agriculture.
Although many successful methods of artificial revegetation have been developed by experience and through research, there is still a great need for refinement in techniques to insure better overall success and greater economy of operation. Improper methods often result in …

Geological Survey Circular 346: First Fourteen Years Of Lake Mead, Harold E. Thomas
Publications (WR)
This circular summarizes the results of recent studies of Lake Mead and its environs. Area-capacity tables, prepared on the basis of a hydrographic survey of the lake in 1948-49, show that the capacity of the reservoir was reduced 4. 9 percent during the first 14 years after Hoover Dam was completed, but the usable capacity was reduced only 3.2 percent. Practically all of this reduction was caused by accumulation of sediment in the reservoir. Studies of inflow and outflow indicate that the reservoir has a total storage capacity about 12 percent greater than that shown by the area-capacity table, because …
Water Levels And Artesian Pressure In Wells In Las Vegas Valley And In Other Valleys In Nevada, 1913-1945, T. W. Robinson, George B. Maxey, J. C. Fredericks, C. Harry Jameson
Water Levels And Artesian Pressure In Wells In Las Vegas Valley And In Other Valleys In Nevada, 1913-1945, T. W. Robinson, George B. Maxey, J. C. Fredericks, C. Harry Jameson
Publications (WR)
The rock formations of the earth are great natural reservoirs in which a part of the water derived from rain and snow is stored. Water levels and artesian pressure in wells register the stages of these natural reservoirs. The changes in water levels or artesian pressure are indicative of the depletion or replenishment of the natural reservoirs. Systematic and periodic measurements of water levels and artesian pressure in wells have been made in Nevada, by State and Federal agencies from time to time. However, only a few of these measurements have ever been published. Under the cooperative arrangement between the …
