Major Issues Facing Agriculture As Our Nation Moves Toward A Domestic And International Food And Agricultural Policy, Clayton K. Yeutter
Major Issues Facing Agriculture As Our Nation Moves Toward A Domestic And International Food And Agricultural Policy, Clayton K. Yeutter
Clayton K. Yeutter, United States Secretary of Agriculture: Papers
It is a pleasure for me to speak this evening before such a distinguished group of agribusiness and academic representatives, all of whom have a common interest. Twenty years ago, that interest would have been denominated as "agricultural policy". Today it would be called "food policy", which presumably is a broader term. Food policy is usually defined to encompass the interests of everyone in the production and marketing process from producer to consumer. It is by no means limited geographically, but encompasses people and firms who are involved -- directly or indirectly, domestically and internationally - in the food business. …
Productivity, Mortality, And Population Trends Of Wolves In Northeastern Minnesota, L. David Mech
Productivity, Mortality, And Population Trends Of Wolves In Northeastern Minnesota, L. David Mech
United States Geological Survey, Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center: Publications
Population parameters, mortality causes, and mechanisms of a population decline were studied in wolves (Canis lupus lycaon) from 1968 to 1976 in the Superior National Forest. The main method was aerial radio-tracking of 129 wolves and their packmates. Due to a decline in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), the wolf population decreased during most of the study. Average annual productivity varied from 1.5 to 3.3 pups per litter, and annual mortality rates from 7 to 65 percent. Malnutrition and intraspecific strife accounted equally for 58 percent of the mortality; human causes accounted for the remainder. As wolf …
Wolf-Pack Buffer Zones As Prey Reservoirs, L. David Mech
Wolf-Pack Buffer Zones As Prey Reservoirs, L. David Mech
United States Geological Survey, Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center: Publications
Abstract. In a declining herd, surviving deer inhabited overlapping edges of wolf- pack territories. There, wolves hunted little until desperate, in order to avoid fatal encounters with neighbors. Such encounters reduce wolf numbers and predation pressure and apparently allow surviving deer along territory edges to repopulate the area through dispersal of their prime, less vulnerable offspring into territory cores.
U. S. Trade Policy - Procedures And Prospects, Clayton K. Yeutter
U. S. Trade Policy - Procedures And Prospects, Clayton K. Yeutter
Clayton K. Yeutter, United States Secretary of Agriculture: Papers
To fully understand U.S. trade policy today, one must also understand its process of evolution. ~n particular, one must comprehend our trade policy of the late 1960's and early 1970 1 s, culminating in passage of the Trade Act of 1974. Putting it another way, a Brazilian businessman will be able to predict with much more accuracy what the U.S. will or will not do on trade issues in the coming years if he knows what the U.S. did or did not do on trade issues during the past few years, and why. Our trade policy of today is very …
Foods Of Juvenile, Brood Hen, And Post-Breeding Pintails In North Dakota, Gary Krapu, George Swanson
Foods Of Juvenile, Brood Hen, And Post-Breeding Pintails In North Dakota, Gary Krapu, George Swanson
United States Geological Survey, Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center: Publications
The Pintail (Anas acuta) is a common to abundant nesting species in North Dakota, becoming more numerous during years of favorable water conditions and less so during drought. Stewart and Kantrud (1974) estimated breeding-populations of 304,000, 111,000 and 379,000 pairs in the Prairie Pothole Region of North Dakota during 1967-69, respectively. We studied food habits of juvenile and adult Pintails during the brood-rearing and post-breeding periods in North Dakota to learn their food requirements during these phases of the life cycle. Food habits of flightless juveniles have been studied in Alberta (Sugden 1973) and limited information on downy …
Aboriginal Exploitation Of Marine Food Resources, Alan J. Osborn
Aboriginal Exploitation Of Marine Food Resources, Alan J. Osborn
Anthropology Department: Theses
Anthropological interest in human exploitation of resources has increased considerably during the last decade. Archaeological and ethnological literature concerning man's utilization of the world's oceans is relatively abundant and there are now several on-going anthropological research programs, e.g., Aleutian Islands, Pacific Northwest Coast, California, Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, Peru, Ecuador, Chile, and Southern Africa which focus primarily on maritime adaptations. The purpose of this study is threefold: (1) to suggest that anthropological assumptions regarding marine food resources and their use are inadequate; (2) to examine marine ecosystems with respect to structure and dynamics, primary productivity, ecological efficiencies, distributional and quantitative …

Vacancy Chains And Intra-Urban Migration, Donald Rundquist
Vacancy Chains And Intra-Urban Migration, Donald Rundquist
Department of Geography: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
American society is a very mobile one, with approximately twenty percent of the populace changing its place of residence every year. It has been estimated that over two-thirds of all moves take place within the city. Geographic studies of intra-urban migration generally treat the relocations as either 1) movement from one areal unit to another, such as inter-census tract flows, or as 2) individual-level, unrelated moves between respective origins and destinations. In reality, however, each change of residence is one part of a much longer sequence of changes.
This thesis examines intra-city moves within the framework of their real-world linkage …
Ethnicity And Socioeconomic Status As Determinants Of Social Participation: A Test Of The Interaction Hypothesis, J. Allen Williams Jr., Louis St. Peter
Ethnicity And Socioeconomic Status As Determinants Of Social Participation: A Test Of The Interaction Hypothesis, J. Allen Williams Jr., Louis St. Peter
Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications
The burgeoning research in recent years on participation in voluntary associations has led to a generally consistent, cumulative literature. From these studies we now know a great deal about who affiliates with what kind of organizations and why. As with most areas of inquiry, however, certain issues remain unresolved. With respect to minority participation, an important and unanswered question has been: Do black Americans have a higher or lower rate of social participation than their white counterparts? Although seemingly a simple question to answer, contradictory findings have led to considerable, and sometimes heated, debate which has lasted for many years. …

Comments On Jackman's "Political Elites, Mass Publics, And Support For Democratic Principles", Louis St. Peter, J. Allen Williams Jr., David R. Johnson
Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications
Whereas classical political theory indicates that widespread public support for democratic principles is necessary for the maintenance of a democratic society, research evidence has almost universally shown a difference between the general public and the elite with the latter being more supportive. Many contemporary observers, in contradiction to classical theory, have explained this difference in terms of an independent politically active stratum, differing from the mass public not only in terms of generally higher social status, but also by a unique socialization process. An article published in the Journal of Politics by Robert Jackman has challenged this interpretation by purporting …

Visual Detection Of Cryptic Prey By Blue Jays (Cyanocitta Cristata), Alexandra T. Pietrewicz, Alan Kamil
Visual Detection Of Cryptic Prey By Blue Jays (Cyanocitta Cristata), Alexandra T. Pietrewicz, Alan Kamil
Avian Cognition Papers
Blue jays learned to respond differentially to the presence or absence of Catocala moths in slides. This detection of the moths by the jays was affected by the background upon which the moth was placed and its body orientation, thus providing an objective measure of crypticity. These procedures are useful for the study of visual detection of prey.
A Personal Vision Of A More Meaningful Anthropology (A Review Of Personal And Extrapersonal Vision In Anthropology By Robert Jay), David C. Dominik
A Personal Vision Of A More Meaningful Anthropology (A Review Of Personal And Extrapersonal Vision In Anthropology By Robert Jay), David C. Dominik
Nebraska Anthropologist
In an unpublished paper presented to the AAA Annual meeting in 1969, Robin Ridington discusses "The Anthropology of Experience" (also the title). The paper relates the story of Jumping Mouse, a not-so-ordinary field mouse. Jumping Mouse leaves his brothers to satisfy his curiosity about the rushing sound in his head. The story makes special note that Jumping Mouse can see only a short distance ahead of himself as he travels, the philosophical implication being that he has limited vision. Curiosity becomes a quest after Jumping Mouse sees the rushing river; he the strives to reach the sacred mountains way off …
Some Questions About Anthropological Linguistics: The Role Of The Native (A Review Of A Critical Analysis By Michael L. Blake), Kenneth Hale
Some Questions About Anthropological Linguistics: The Role Of The Native (A Review Of A Critical Analysis By Michael L. Blake), Kenneth Hale
Nebraska Anthropologist
The author seems to be greatly concerned about current trends within his profession of Anthropological Linguistics. He has made some extremely valid observations and some equally valid suggestions to reconstruct the field of Linguistics in order to deal with pertinent problems of today.
Hale views Anthropology as a product of its origin. He believes that it is constrained by the limitations of a white Anglo-Saxon denomination in the field, in academic endeavors, and more precisely in its most important aspect, it's application. In particular he attacks the idea that non-native speakers, as objective observers, are more successful. The probable cause …
Evolution For Anthropology: Setting Our House In Order (A Review Of Bringing It All Back Home By Gerald D. Berreman), Dennis Toom
Evolution For Anthropology: Setting Our House In Order (A Review Of Bringing It All Back Home By Gerald D. Berreman), Dennis Toom
Nebraska Anthropologist
In Berreman's article, as in most of the other articles in Reinventing Anthropology, the main topic of discussion is that, once again, the need for change has presented itself in the discipline: anthropology needs to be reinvented. The changes called for have to do with relevance, responsibility, receptivity and the like. None of the authors offers much in the way of suggestions for accomplishing this ideological overhaul for anthropology; they only acknowledge the need for it. Processes of change are characteristically disruptive, producing harmful and negative effects during the transition, and change in anthropology is no different.
Use Of Natural Basin Wetlands By Breeding Waterfowl In North Dakota, Harold A. Kantrud, Robert E. Stewart
Use Of Natural Basin Wetlands By Breeding Waterfowl In North Dakota, Harold A. Kantrud, Robert E. Stewart
United States Geological Survey, Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center: Publications
Use of basin wetlands by breeding populations of 12 species of waterfowl was investigated in 1965 and during 1967-69 throughout the prairie pothole region of North Dakota. Data were obtained primarily by random sampling techniques. Of the total population occupying natural basin wetlands 55 percent occupied seasonal and 36 percent occupied semipermanent wetlands. Seasonal wetlands contained 60 percent of the population of dabbling ducks, while semipermanent wetlands supported 75 percent of the population of diving ducks. On basins with ponded water, highest concentrations of breeding pairs occurred on temporary, seasonal, and semipermanent wetlands; moderate concentrations were recorded on ephemeral, fen, …
Pintail Reproduction Hampered By Snowfall And Agriculture, Gary Krapu
Pintail Reproduction Hampered By Snowfall And Agriculture, Gary Krapu
United States Geological Survey, Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center: Publications
The reproductive strategy of the Pintail (Anas acuta) shows several adaptations to the semi-arid variable climate of the prairie pothole region of north central North America where the species is a common breeder. By nesting early and using temporary and seasonal water areas replenished by snow melt waters or early spring rains, the species has successfully occupied broad areas containing limited permanent and semi-permanent water. The Pintail is prone to select new breeding grounds during periods of drought. Smith (J. Wildl. Manage. 34:9@-946, 19701 has shown that part of the population moves northward from the prairies and parklands …
Issues Facing U.S. Farmers And Their Cooperatives, Clayton K. Yeutter
Issues Facing U.S. Farmers And Their Cooperatives, Clayton K. Yeutter
Clayton K. Yeutter, United States Secretary of Agriculture: Papers
It is a pleasure for me to speak this morning to this dynamic group of young farm families. Those of .us who were actively involved in farming a few years back are continually amazed at the talent that has come along" to succeed us. Farming has indeed changed more than we realize. That is not a new discovery, for thousands of articles have been written about the technological revolution in agriculture. But relatively little attention has been given to the change in farm families themselves. without doubt, the quality level of young farmers and their wives - whether it be …
Food And Foreign Affairs: The Role Of Agricultural Trade Policy In International Commerce And Domestic Relations, Clayton K. Yeutter
Food And Foreign Affairs: The Role Of Agricultural Trade Policy In International Commerce And Domestic Relations, Clayton K. Yeutter
Clayton K. Yeutter, United States Secretary of Agriculture: Papers
Until that now famous series of Russian grain sales took place in 1972 agricultural policy in the United States had begun to lose its sex appeal! It had its challenges in the drought and depression years of the '30s, and again during World War II, but in both those cases the concern was whether we could produce enough for our needs. In the earlier of those decades, we had an additional preoccupation with the economic survival of our farming communities. Farm families had to.be strong in every sense of the word to live through the '30s.
Climatic Change And The Initial Middle Missouri Tradition, David L. Cook
Climatic Change And The Initial Middle Missouri Tradition, David L. Cook
Nebraska Anthropologist
It has been postulated that a favorable climatic change occurs worldwide at approximately 900 A.D. At this same time, many cultures expanded and many cultures appeared for the first time, specifically the Initial Middle Missouri Variant in North and South Dakota. In this paper, I will try to demonstrate that a climatic change did occur worldwide, that cultures do respond and change to shifts in climate, and I will try to demonstrate the responses of certain cultures to the 900 A.D. climatic change. Specifically, I will try to show what may have happened to the Initial Middle Missouri culture area …
Responsibility In Anthropology (A Review Of The Life And Culture Of Ecotopia By E. N. Anderson, Jr.), Prudence Sadler
Responsibility In Anthropology (A Review Of The Life And Culture Of Ecotopia By E. N. Anderson, Jr.), Prudence Sadler
Nebraska Anthropologist
A great deal of discussion in recent anthropological literature has been directed toward "relevance in anthropology". The issues which are confronted under the concept of relevance in anthropology would be perhaps more correctly labeled "responsibility in anthropology".
Relevance is defined as pertinence and, social applicability, in other words, the ability, to satisfy a need. The concept of responsibility encompasses this social applicability but also includes moral and rational accountability for one's conduct and obligations. Not only is it the ability to satisfy a need but the accountability for the actions taken to satisfy the need and the repercussions which follow. …

Proceedings Of Perdix I: Hungarian Partridge Workshop, The Wildlife Society, Central Mountains And Plains Section, The Wildlife Society, North Dakota Chapter, North Dakota Game And Fish Department
Galliformes Specialist Group and Affiliated Societies: Conference Proceedings
Perdix I has succeeded in its major objective of bringing Hungarian partridge research and management people together in one place for introduction to one another and for a mutually beneficial exchange of information. A major communications bridge has been gapped by the informalization that occurs with the development of face-to-face relationships, a realization of how similar everyone's technical problems are, and an expression of concern regarding the need to develop work plans and guidelines to help direct future research and management by avoiding unnecessary duplication that often occurs with poor communications. As regards communications, it is refreshing to know that …

A 'Hedge' Against Cultural Dominance (A Review Of Counter Culture And Cultural Hegemony: Some Notes On The Youth Rebellion Of The 1960'S By A. Norman Klein), Patrick F. Mccarty
Nebraska Anthropologist
During the 1960's, student unrest became an issue of international proportions. College-age protesters participated in various forms of dissent (peaceful and violent) for various reasons. Because of their break with conventional beliefs and customs, the youth of the 60's were identified as a subculture or "counter culture". This counter culture was established to protest critical issues ignored by the dominant culture. In his article on counter culture and cultural hegemony, A. Norman Klein addresses the nature of cultural dominance in America. He argues that a study of the youth movement of the 60's reveals the true character of hegemonic culture.
Review Of The Grant Oneota Village By Marshall Mckusick, Carol Raish
Review Of The Grant Oneota Village By Marshall Mckusick, Carol Raish
Nebraska Anthropologist
Marshall McKusick's monograph, The Grant Oneota Village, reports the results of excavations at the Grant Village site (13AM201). Grant Village is a multicomponent site located on the Hartley Terrace of the Upper Iowa River, Allamakee County, Iowa. The main focus of the report is the description and interpretation of house remains found on the terrace. The site is a very important one for Oneota specialists as it offers the possibility of much new information on house form and community patterning. Other topics covered include a discussion of Oneota taxonomy, a cultural chronology of the Hartley Terrace, and ethnohistotic parallels …

"Claude Levi-Strauss, Professor of Social Anthropology at the College de France, is, by common consent, the most distinguished exponent of this particular academic trade to be found anywhere outside the English speaking world... " (Leach 1970: 7)
With this in mind, I am still wondering how I came to be embroiled in an attempt not only to understand the multifaceted theorizing of Levi-Strauss myself, but to interpret even a portion of this wide inventory to my colleagues. There is much (the majority, perhaps) of Claude Levi-Strauss which eludes me yet. To quote Edmund Leach again, "The outstanding characteristic of his …

On Political Tolerance: Comments On "Origins Of Tolerance", Harry J. Crockett
Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications
The continued scalability of a set of attitude items used in national sample surveys separated by 19 years is a remarkable and useful result. In a discipline lacking valid measures of socially important attitudes, such an outcome merits close study and wide dissemination. But exhibiting the stability of Stouffer's tolerance scale is not the prime end of the Williams et al. paper; they pursue an accounting of the "origins of tolerance." Nor is it the prime interest of the larger research from which their paper arises. Our concern in the larger study is with the political tolerance of the American …
