Side 13 - To the Board of Control of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station: As Treasurer of the Board of Control, I respectfully submit the following report for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1914: MAINTENANCE FUND — NECESSARY EXPENSES.
Side 361 - Investigations conducted by the Biological Survey have shown that the northward distribution of terrestrial animals and plants is governed by the sum of the positive temperatures for the entire season of growth and reproduction, and that the southward distribution is governed by the mean temperature of a brief period during the hottest part of the year.
Side 17 - Dr. To receipts fro-m the treasurer of the United States, as per appropriation for fiscal year ending June 30.
Side 45 - Extensive" tuberculosis refers entirely to the amount of tuberculous matter and the number of tubercles, and may apply to a case which is confined to one of the body cavities. (1) The carcass may be passed when the lesions are limited to one group of lymphatic glands or one other organ. (2) The carcass may be passed when the lesions are limited to two groups of visceral lymphatic glands in either the thoracic or the abdominal cavity. (3 ) The carcass may be passed when the lesions are limited to...
Side 106 - It is shown without question that the physiological effect of the two rations, due to the withdrawal from the bran of such compounds as were soluble in slightly acidulated water, differed to a marked degree. With the washed bran ration as compared with the one containing the unwashed bran, the following differences were observed. a. Drier and much firmer feces with the washed bran ration, accompanied by a constipated condition, requiring in some' cases the use of a purgative.
Side 193 - ... and then spray thoroughly with bordeaux and poison. The other two sprayings should likewise be thorough and applied at such times as to keep the foliage protected as much as possible during the remainder of the season. Very satisfactory results may be obtained from three thorough sprayings.
Side 84 - Distribution of outgoing phosphorus compounds hi the milk and egesta. — Variations in the amount of outgoing phosphorus, corresponding to the rise and fall of phosphorus compounds in the rations, took place chiefly in the feces, though to a small extent in the urine. Moreover, as previously indicated, this increase or decrease in the phosphorus bodies of the egesta was found to occur almost wholly with the inorganic salts. The percentage of these salts in the milk suffered no appreciable change....
Side 193 - ... to the quantity of bordeaux required to spray an acre. Thoroughness of application is to be desired at all times, but is especially important when flea -beetles are numerous or the weather favorable to blight. Using the same quantity of bordeaux, frequent light applications are likely to be more effective than heavier applications made at long intervals...
Side 75 - The feces were thoroughly mixed by prolonged stirring and five pound samples of the fresh material were taken for drying and for nitrogen determinations. These samples were dried over steam coils at a temperature not exceeding 60° C. In general the analytical methods of the AOAC were followed. During some of the time the fat in the milk was estimated both by the Babcock and ether extraction methods. Neumann's method was used in all the total phosphorus determinations. For the separation of inorganic...
Side 68 - INTRODUCTION. The metabolism and functions of the ash ingredients of cattle foods have received relatively little attention from scientific investigators up to the present time. This is true even of so important an element as phosphorus. So far, investigators have given their attention chiefly to studies of the metabolism and functions of the compounds included in the three classes, proteids, carbohydrates and fats. There is every reason for believing, however, that some of the elements which appear...
