[Book review] Politics and water resources
Luna Bergere Leopold
1964, Science (144) 402-403
Arizona is a state in which development has proceeded sufficiently rapidly relative to the available water supply that its water problems are as acute as those of nearly any other state in the Union. Owing to the fact that, in the past, the principal use of water was for irrigation,...

Don Price
1964, Open-File Report 64-128
The Burnt River valley in southern Baker County, Oreg., is underlain by rocks that range in age from pre-Tertiary to Quaternary. The pre-Tertiary rocks consist mainly of argillites, schists, limestones, and intrusive igneous rocks, while the Tertiary rocks consist mainly of felsic and mafic volcanic tuffs, lava flows and breccias,...
Studies of pre-Selma Cretaceous core samples from the outcrop area in western Alabama
Watson Hiner Monroe, Richard E. Bergenback, Norman F. Sohl, Esther R. Applin, Estella B. Leopold, Helen M. Pakiser, Louis C. Conant
1964, Bulletin 1160
In 1954 four core holes were drilled in the pre-Selma Cretaceous strata of the Alabama Coastal Plain in order to get unweathered samples within a few miles of the outcrops. During the next few years several specialists studied the cores, and their reports are published as consecutive parts of this...

Chemical characteristics of south-central Lake Huron
Herbert E. Allen
1964, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the 8th Conference on Great Lakes Research
Water samples were collected for chemical analysis during eight cruises of the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries M/V CISCO in south-central Lake Huron in June-October 1956. Temperature, pH, conductivity, and the concentrations of Na+, K+, Ca++, C1-, SO4-, SiO2, and dissolved oxygen were determined for 233 samples from stations at...
Records of wells and springs, water levels, and chemical quality of ground water in the East Portland area, Oregon
B. L. Foxworthy, G.M. Hogenson, E. R. Hampton
1964, Report
Data are presented on more than 300 wells, including many new ones whose records will not be a part of a forthcoming interpretative report on the occurrence of ground water in this area. A brief description of the geomorphic features is given, and the...
Origin of precambrian iron formations
H. Lepp, S. S. Goldich
1964, Economic Geology (59) 1025-1060
A statistical study of the chemical composition of the Precambrian iron formations of the Canadian Shield affords a new approach to the origin of these unusual formations. The average total iron content of 2,200 samples from the literature and from unpublished mining company analyses is 26.7 percent Fe. The average Fe content for 16 iron formations in the United States and Canada...

Effects on the shallow artesian aquifer of withdrawing water from the deep artesian aquifer near Sugarville, Millard County, Utah
R. W. Mower
1963, Utah State Engineer Water Circular 10
Ground water occurs in a shallow (unconfined) aquifer and in at least two artesian (confined) aquifers in the unconsolidated alluvial material composing the valley fill near Sugarville, Utah. No wells are known to withdraw water from the unconfined aquifer, and this report is limited to a discussion of the effects...
Test drilling in the upper Sevier River drainage basin, Garfield and Piute Counties, Utah
R.D. Feltis, G.B. Robinson
1963, Utah State Engineer Water Circular 12
A test-drilling program was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in the upper Sevier River drainage basin (fig. 1) in the summer of 1962. The program was part of a ground-water investigation made in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer. The drilling was financed cooperatively through the State Engineer by...
Dissolved-mineral inflow to Great Salt Lake and chemical characteristics of the salt lake brine. Part I: Selected hydrologic data
D. C. Hahl, C.G. Mitchell
1963, Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey Water-Resources Bulletin 3-I
This report presents the data collected for a study of the dissolved-mineral load contributed by surficial sources to Great Salt Lake, Utah. The study was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the University of Utah during the period from July 1959 through June 1962, and is part...

In vitro culture of the flagellate protozoan Hexamita salmonis
J. R. Uzmann, S.H. Hayduk
1963, Science (140) 290-292
Trophozoites of Hexamita salmonis, asserted pathogen of juvenile salmonid fishes, were isolated from two species of Pacific salmon hosts and cultured repeatedly in an organic medium saturated with nitrogen. Primary isolates and serial subcultures usually exhibited five- to tenfold population increases per passage....
The Hexamita(= Octomitus) problem: A preliminary report
J. R. Uzmann, J.W. Jesse
1963, Progressive Fish-Culturist (25) 141-143
THE INTESTINAL FLAGELLATE, Hexamita salmonis (Moore), was described in 1922 from trout in hatcheries throughout New York State. At first associated with the so-called whirling disease of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis), now believed to be a virus disease, Hexamita was subsequently held responsible for practically any otherwise unexplainable mortality in...
Formalin in the Hatchery
R.R. Rucker, W.G. Taylor, D.P. Toney
1963, Progressive Fish-Culturist (25) 203-207
FORMALIN is used extensively in hatcheries to control external parasites of fish. There are reports that formalin is toxic at some hatcheries, especially when used on rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). This is a discussion of the development of the use of formalin to control fish parasite-in the hatchery, its properties,...
A new geographic and host record for infectious pancreatic necrosis
T. J. Parisot, W. T. Yasutake, V. Bressler
1963, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (92) 63-66
The occurrence of infectious pancreatic necrosis in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri), brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis), and cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki) has been experimentally authenticated for the first time in the western United States. The cutthroat trout represents a new host. Brook trout fin tissue culture inoculated with bacteria-free filtrate from...
Co-oxidation of the sulfur-containing amino acids in an autoxidizing lipid system
Gary Wedemeyer, A.M. Dollar
1963, Journal of Food Science (28) 537-540
Oxidation of the sulfur amino acids by autoxidizing lipids was studied in a model system consisting of an amino acid dispersed in cold-pressed, molecularly distilled menhaden oil (20–80% w/w). Under all conditions investigated, cysteine was oxidized completely to cystine. Preliminary results suggest that at 110°C the oxidation follows first-order kinetics...
