Subject:

Abstract:
... The writer's belief concerning pasture improvement may be summarized thus: 1. Cleaning up the pasture is the first big job on the majority of farms. 2. Apply some manure on pastures where the hauling is reasonable and the pasture not too rough. 3. Improve with lime and superphosphate. For the majority of pastures the first two recommendations are the horses and number three the cart. Let us not ge ...

Abstract:
... 1. Young tares, young mustard, and sugar beet tops had a beneficial effect on the barley crop when used as green manures. They accelerated germination, increased the tillering capacity, and gave bigger yields of grain and straw than the control. This was true of all three manures in whatever way they were applied. The same applies to the artificial fertilizers. 2. The yield of grain and straw was ...

Abstract:
... Between about 22,500 and 12,000 years ago cosmopolitan and northern Chydoridae were dominant in Lake Zeribar. Species with southern affinities replaced the northern species between 12,000 and 5,000 years ago. During the last 5,000 years the chydorid fauna has been composed of southern and cosmopolitan species, and the planktonic cladoceran, Bosmina longirostris, has been more abundant than it was ...

Abstract:
... In recent years a number of aphid species have been successfully reared on chemically defined diets (Dadd & Mittler, 1966; Auclair, 1965; Dadd & Krieger, 1967; Ehrhardt, 1968). The development of such diets has offered an opportunity to study in detail several aspects of the physiology of these insects. In particular, the composition of the artificial diet has been shown to influence the productio ...

Abstract:
... The date distribution of emergence in panicles of Dactylis glomerata was studied over several years at the Welsh Plant Breeding Station, Aberystwyth. Indigenous populations from southwest England, and western France showed a negatively skew distribution, as did cultivars from U.S.A., Denmark, and New Zealand, but in those from U.S.S.R. the skewness was not significant. It is suggested that this ne ...

Abstract:
... Vegetation and soil systems in two beechwoods were examined by measurements of variables at the same sites. Principal components analysis was used to generate hypotheses about the relationship between vegetation and soil which were tested by simple correlation of components and variables. Further information explaining the variation of the vegetation system was obtained by simple correlation with ...

Abstract:
... Concentration in the spring of feeding by caterpillars of the winter moth, Operophtera brumata L., and other species of Lepidoptera on oak trees in England is believed to be related to seasonal changes in the texture and chemical composition of the leaves. Increasing leaf toughness is a proximate, though probably not ultimate, factor preventing late larval feeding by the winter moth, the commonest ...

Abstract:
... An outbreak of chronic skin ulceration in a well-established specified-pathogen-free colony of rats is described. A coagulase-positive staphylococcus was associated with the outbreak, which occurred during winter months and quickly subsided.
