Determination of color of turbid waters
W.L. Lamar
1949, Analytical Chemistry (21) 726-727
A convenient procedure for determining the color of turbid waters, using the principle of precipitation of turbidity by the electrolyte calcium chloride, is described. Because the stable turbidity of many surface waters cannot be completely precipitated by conventional centrifuging alone, this procedure presents a means of flocculating the turbidity without...
Relations of bauxite and Kaolin in the Arkansas bauxite deposits
M.I. Goldman, Joshua Irving Tracey Jr.
1949, Economic Geology (41) 567-575
Investigation of the Arkansas bauxite deposits by the U. S. Geological Survey during the years 1942 to 1945 has brought out the fact that secondary kaolinization or silication of the bauxite is much more common than has been generally recognized. On the other hand no direct evidence was found of...
Natural water losses in mountain drainage areas of southern California
Harold C. Troxell, H.M. Stafford
1949, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (30) 752-758
For twenty‐five small mountain drainage areas of Southern California, natural water losses are shown to vary with basin altitude, and with estimated absorptive and retentive characteristics of the drainage areas. Among other relationships demonstrated is the increase of the annual natural water loss with increased annual precipitation to an optimum,...
Ground water in the East Shore area, Utah. Part I. Bountiful District, Davis County
H. E. Thomas, W.B. Nelson
1948, Technical Publication 5
The Bountiful district in Davis County, Utah, less than 10 miles from the heart of Salt Lake City, is rapidly becoming an integral part of the metropolitan area of Salt Lake City. It cannot achieve the development that its location merits unless the present water supplies are increased. The district...
New compounds for the control of bacterial gill disease
R.R. Rucker
1948, Progressive Fish-Culturist (10) 19-22
BACTERIAL GILL DISEASE, a common epizootic among hatchery fish, can be controlled by copper sulphate dips, as stated by Davis (1945), or by prolonged treatments with Roccal, as noted by Fish (1947). The use of copper sulphate is not without danger because of variation in toxicity according to the hardness...
A report upon the Grand Coulee Fish Maintenance Project 1939-1947
F. F. Fish, Mitchell G. Hanavan
1948, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 55
The construction or Grand Coulee Dam, on the upper Columbia River, involved the loss of 1,140 lineal miles of spawning and rearing stream to the production of anadromous fishes. The fact that the annual value of these fish runs to the nation was estimated at $250,000 justified reasonable expenditures to...
The return on the blueback salmon to the Columbia River
Frederick S. Fisher
1948, Scientific Monthly (66) 283-292
THE year 1941 was a crucial one for the blueback salmon of the Columbia River. During that year, one brood came closer to extinction than was realized by more than a few individuals. The immediate causes were not overfishing, hydroelectric power development, or irrigation—although these factors continued to exert their...
Removal of excess nitrogen in a hatchery water supply
R.R. Rucker
1948, Progressive Fish-Culturist (10) 88-90
The water system at the U. S. Fish Cultural Station, Leavenworth, Washington, has been supplemented with two wells that were to be used to increase the temperature of the water during the winter and to cool the Water in the summer if necessary. The well water proved to be unsuitable...
Cranberry magnetite deposits Avery County, N.C., and Carter County, Tenn.
M.H. Kline, T.J. Ballard
1948, U.S. Bureau of Mines Report of Investigations 4274
The Cranberry magnetite deposits occur in pre-Cambrian granite-gneiss in a belt extending from 3 miles southeast of Cranberry, N.C., to about 6 miles southwest of Magnetic City, Tenn. The belt forms a curve, elongated to the north, approximately 26 miles in length....
Storage by bobwhite quail of vitamin A fed in various forms
R. B. Nestler, James V. Derby, J.B. DeWitt
1948, Journal of Nutrition (36) 323-329
According to studies conducted with 236 bobwhite quail chicks at Patuxent Research Refuge, crystalline carotene in cottonseed oil fed at levels of 3000 I.U. (the requirement for optimum growth), 5000 I.U., and 25,000 I.U. per pound of feed, was utilized only ⅓ to 1/7 as efficiently as vitamin...
Ground water in the Blanchard area, McClain County, Oklahoma
Leon Virgil Davis, Stuart L. Schoff
1948, Open-File Report 48-80
A letter from Lloyd L. Bowser, City Clerk, dated January 8, 1948, in behalf of the town council and Mayor Walter Casey, indicates that a serious shortage of water is faced by the town of Blanchard, McClain County, Oklahoma. The town is near the eastern boundary of Grady County, where...
Water-supply investigation at Chinle, Navajo Indian Reservation, Arizona
Leonard C. Halpenny, S.C. Brown
1948, Open-File Report 48-78
In late January 1948 the Geological Survey was requested to investigate the possibilities of obtaining additional water supplies at four sites on the Navajo Indian Reservation. Each site was given a priority, and the site at Chinle was designated as second of the four in importance. Field work was to...
