Test 305: John Deere Model B, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab Jan 1938

Test 305: John Deere Model B, Nebraska Tractor Test Lab

Nebraska Tractor Tests

All tractors tested at the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory were certified by their manufacturers as being stock model machines, conforming to specifications filed with the application for test. No special or high-test fuels were used except as recommended by the manufacturer as necessary.

All results within the official tractor test report were actually attained in tests and are without correction or allowances for friction, temperature, altitude, etc. The results were initially accomplished with the tractor in charge of skilled operators employed by the University.

Unless otherwise noted, each tractor was apparently in good condition at the end of the testing …

Geology And Ground-Water Resources Of South-Central Nebraska. With Special Reference To The Platte River Valley Between Chapman And Gothenburg, Alvin Leonard Lugn, L. K. Wenzel Jan 1938

Geology And Ground-Water Resources Of South-Central Nebraska. With Special Reference To The Platte River Valley Between Chapman And Gothenburg, Alvin Leonard Lugn, L. K. Wenzel

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

The investigation here reported, which covered a period of about 5 years, 1929 to 1933, was made for the purpose of determining the available supply of ground water in south-central Nebraska, the origin and discharge of the ground water, and the relation of the geologic and ground-water conditions in the Platte River Valley to the conditions occurring under the plains to the south. The area was found to be underlain by permeable Pleistocene and Tertiary sand .and gravel, much of which is saturated and yields relatively large quantities of water to wells. Except in a few isolated places the ground-water …

Determining Fossil Woods (Western Conifers), George F. Beck Oct 1937

Determining Fossil Woods (Western Conifers), George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

In this paper we come to consider the problem of the coniferous woods. One cannot always recognize with certainty that a given wood is a conifer, yet in ninety percent of the specimens recognition is simple.


Remarkable West American Fossil, The Blue Lake Rhino, George F. Beck Aug 1937

Remarkable West American Fossil, The Blue Lake Rhino, George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

Bidding for acceptance as fact, and for its place in the sun of fame and notoriety, we come now to the newly discovered fossil rhino animal mold of Blue Lake in Grand Coulee, central Washington. Not that fossil rhinos are rare or that their abundance in the Tertiary of America has waited until the present for revelation, is this fossil important. The feature in the Blue Lake rhino which taxes our credulity is the existence of the thing in what unquestionably must pass as once liquid basaltic lava. That anything organic could pass through the terrific heat and pressure of …


Syntheses In The Thiophene Series, Alfred William Weitkamp Jul 1937

Syntheses In The Thiophene Series, Alfred William Weitkamp

Department of Chemistry: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

SUMMARY

The Friedel-Crafts reaction has been used in the preparation of thiophene ketones, some of which were hitherto unknown. Certain limitations of the reaction have been noted.

The mercuration of thiophene ketones has been systematically investigated for the first time. Many new halogen derivatives of benzothienone have been synthesized. These were employed in the elucidation of the structure of a complex mercurial· derived from this ketone.

A new modification of an old reaction has been developed whereby benzothienone can be mercurated quickly and almost quantitatively. Interesting derivatives of this little known ketone have been synthesized. Chief among these are the …

Determination Of Fossil Woods (Part V-Beech-Sycamore-Alder), George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

The group of woods considered in this paper are only superficially alike—no implication that they are closely related is intended. The beginner will almost certainly confuse the compound rays of these various woods with their annual rings.


Freestone County, Texas [Water Quality Survey Of Wells And Springs With Test Hole Data, 1936], Samuel F. Turner Jun 1937

Freestone County, Texas [Water Quality Survey Of Wells And Springs With Test Hole Data, 1936], Samuel F. Turner

United States Geological Survey: Water Reports and Publications

Introduction

The purpose of this survey was to obtain information concerning existing wells and springs and the quantity and quality of water they yield, and to put down test holes where additional information was needed.

This project was part of a statewide Works Progress Administration project known as a "Statewide Inventory of Water Wells," sponsored by the [Texas] State Board of Water Engineers. The Division of Ground Water of the United States Geological Survey cooperated in the technical direction of the project and the Bureau of Industrial Chemistry of the University of Texas furnished laboratory space and equipment and supervised …

In this preliminary chart are shown the extinct mammals encountered as fossils in the various formations among and above the great Columbia Basalt series of the Pacific Northwest. A few shown as appearing in the Lake Vantage horizon of the basalts.

Determination Of Fossil Woods (Part Iv-Walnut-Hickory-Persimmon), George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

These three woods undoubtedly ranged over Western America in Tertiary and were well represented in the Ginkgo series of forest during Miocene. Fossil walnut wood is the more abundant of the three species, while hickory is not common.

Determination Of Fossil Woods (Part Iii-The Elms), George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

The elms are among the best known and most beloved trees found native to America. Like the redwood they belong to that large group of trees which in preglacial days grew generally over the northern hemisphere.


Camels Of The Columbia Plateau, George F. Beck Mar 1937

Camels Of The Columbia Plateau, George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

However foreign they may seem to us the camels are one of our oldest American stocks. Our Western plains once supported large herds of them, humped and humpless, large and small, giraffe-necked and normal-necked. For some 35 million years, from Oligocene to the Pliocene, the camels were confined to North America and it was not until recently, geologically speaking that we shared the race with the Old World.


Determination Of Fossil Woods (Part Ii-The Oaks), George F. Beck Feb 1937

Determination Of Fossil Woods (Part Ii-The Oaks), George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

The oaks, unlike the sacred ginkgo or temple tree, are thriving throughout the northern hemisphere today. Not only is the oak an entirely familiar and abundant element in existing landscapes, but its history goes back into the centuries and ages. Its leaves and woods are generously represented in fossil forests as far back as the early Tertiary and closely allied forms penetrate as far back as the Cretaceous.

Nebraska Tractor Tests

EXPLANATION OF TEST REPORT: John Deere G

TEST A: The manufacturer's representative operates the tractor for a minimum of 12 hours using light to heavy drawbar loads in each gear.

This serves as a period for limber up, general observation and adjustments. Adjustments that are permissible include valve tappet clearance, breaker ,point gap, spark plug gaps, clutch and others of a similar nature. No new parts or accessories can be installed without having mention made of it in the report. No data' are recorded during this preliminary run except the time that the engine is operated.
