The use of silage to counteract the effect of cottonseed meal on the composition and market qualities of butter
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1917)
Text from page 58: In general, this experiment shows that very slight effects on the composition of butter result from feeding cottonseed meal with a liberal ration of silage; and that larger changes in the fat constants are to be expected when...

be considered a well-established feature in American farm economy, not only in dairy section, but in general, where any kind of live-stock farming is practiced. While silos and silage have been in general use for a number of years there are several important...
Factors affecting the growth of dairy animals
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1916)
Text from introduction: All successful breeders are continually striving to improve the quality of their herds. The value of any dairy herd is determined to a great extent by the way in which the heifers within that herd ...
Minimum protein requirements for the growth of dairy heifers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1915)
to determine the minimum amount of this constituent necessary to promote their normal growth. With the object of determining such a figure, the Missouri Experiment Station started an experiment in August, 1913. The results of this experiment to date are given...
Catholic opinion and United States recognition policy
(University of Missouri--Columbia., 1963)
SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: This study of the ideas of American Catholic opinion-makers is centered on the controversial issues of Soviet recognition (1917-1933) and the nonrecognition of Peking (1949-1962). The relationship between Catholics...
Nutrients, chlorophyll and bacterial fecal indicators in coves and open water areas of Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Urban development and use of septic tanks in porous soils of Lake of the Ozarks poses a threat to public health via leaching into drinking wells and coves used for swimming. During 2 summers, phosphorus (TP), nitrogen (TN), chlorophyll (Chl), fecal...
Milk substitutes, powdered skimmilk for raising calves
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1917)
Text from introduction: This thesis is a discussion, from the standpoint of our present knowledge of the fundamental principles of animal nutrition, of the possibility of raising calves on "milk substitutes". The experimental ...
Minimum milk requirement for calf raising
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1919)
The dairyman is keenly interested in knowing how he can raise his calves in an economical and successful manner. This thesis reports the results of several experiments in early weaning and minimum use of milk for calf ...
Estimation of demand parameters : an empirical analysis of consumer behavior in the United States
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
is insufficient for the estimation of a large number of the required parameters. Recent studies of the theory of consumer behavior have provided a number of empirically useful hypotheses concerning the separability of the consumer’s utility functions...
Investing in newsrooms during the layoff era
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
that reverse dwindling circulation numbers remain a worthy pursuit. This study examines medium-sized newspapers from around the country during what's described as the "layoff era" -- the period of time following the economic recession that began in 2007...
Bayesian cusp regression and linear mixed model
