A study of Bacillus aroideae, Townsend, the cause of a soft rot of tomato, and B. carotovorus Jones

Massey, Arthur B. January 1924 (has links)
INTRODUCTION In the summer of 1918, at Blacksburg, Virginia, there developed a considerable amount of a soft rot of tomatoes. This occurred in experimental plots which were designated to study the control of septoria leaf blight, and the soft rot of the fruit developed into an important factor. In describing these experiments Fromme (2) states: "Practically all of the unsoundness of the fruit was caused by bacterial soft rot, a disease which is exceedingly common and often very destructive in tomato fields in Virginia." Isolations from diseased fruits made by S. A. Wingard proved a bacterium to be the causative agent. Its growth in pure culture resembled that of the group of bacteria which causes soft rots of plants but it could not be readily assigned to any of the described species of this group. There has been only casual mention of a bacterial soft rot of tomato in literature, and the distinguishing features of the organisms which might be responsible have not been as sharply defined as is desirable. It was decided, therefore, to undertake comparative studies of the organism in question together with some of the non-chromogenic soft rot forms. / Master of Science

Thesis: consisting of a course of study in hog production to be taught in Virginia agricu[l]tural high schools

Akers, Tyler F. January 1924 (has links)
The Primary object in the preparation of this course of study in Animal husbandry is to devine a practical plan for presenting the study of hogs in the various schools of this State. There are no two schools that will be able to adopt the same methods in every particular, hence a certain amount of latitude is allowed each instructor in adapting the suggestions given here to his own particular needs. In selecting the references the author has tried to use those which will be found in the library of the average agricultural high school. It is believed that courses of study are often of little use because of the type of reference material used. The text adopted is "A Study of Farm Animals" by Plumb and has been found to be very satisfactory in a number of the schools. Since books are constantly being revised in the light of experimental data it is urged that every instructor make use of the latest bulletins as they appear from the various experiment stations. The libraries of two schools in widely different sections of the state were consulted in the selection of references and it is thought a large number of them will be applicable for all schools where hog production is an important feature. It is further hoped that with the elimination of a large number of texts the instructor will be inclined to make use of those suggested. It will be noted that only the seven breeds most conspicuous in Virginia are mentioned in the study of types and breeds. It is again assumed that the instructor will make the necessary adaptation for any unusual breed found in his community. An agricultural instructor is in a position to organize and plan his work better than most other types of teachers. The fact he is on the job during the summer months gives him an opportunity for knowing the pupils he will have the next year in any particular course as well as the needs of information of these pupils. The first job for an agricultural instructor is to determine the references he will need to put across a satisfactory job of teaching in a certain topic. In the case of books it is often only necessary to procure a copy of each for the agricultural library but he should if possible get enough of each bulletin listed in the course of study so that each pupil may have one for his individual use. Again the Instructor has the advantage of being on the job during the summer months and doing all necessary correspondence to make this material available for his pupils. This material should be catalogued so as to be accessible for use at any time the need arises. Since this course must necessarily make up only a portion of the work in animal husbandry for a year it is left to the instructor to fit the days' work for each month into his system of instruction. It is intended that the course serve as an outline of presentation of the subject of swine, suggesting not only the topics to be treated under such a subject, but also the reference material necessary under each topic. For the instructor who is giving a unit course in hog production a course of study is almost indispensable. The division of the work into topics attracts the farmers and creates an interest that otherwise does not exist. It is quite probable that among a group of adult farmers there will be several who are quite proficient in some line and each of these should be allowed to take one of the jobs and show the efficiency of the methods he employs. The course has been put on a job basis so as to divide and analyze each topic on the basis that a farmer does these jobs on his farm. The text is meant to serve merely as an aid to the instructor in making assignments and as an outline for the pupil. The assignments in the text will necessarily be brief and as a result the instructor must resort to a number of outside agencies for supplementary assignments. These are given in the outline that follows directly under the problem which is to be presented. Where a large amount of material is available for any one particular problem it may be advisable to divide the assignment among the pupils and require each to present the topic in a different form. / Master of Science

La lettre comme lieu d’invention d’un destin littéraire : le cas de Félicité Angers (Laure Conan)

Savoie, Marie-Pier 23 April 2018 (has links)
Félicité Angers, mieux connue sous son pseudonyme de Laure Conan, est la première Canadienne française à vivre de sa plume. Sa correspondance, d’abord recueillie et annotée par Jean-Noël Dion en 2002 sous le titre J’ai tant de sujets de désespoir, puis complétée par la découverte de douze autres lettres parues en 2007 dans l’édition critique d’Angéline de Montbrun préparée par Nicole Bourbonnais, est constituée aujourd’hui de 362 lettres qui demeurent le seul matériau par lequel nous avons accès à l’intimité de l’écrivaine. Nous pourrons donc saisir son parcours par le biais de cet élan qu’est la pratique de l’écriture épistolaire en sillonnant ses lettres intimes, empreintes d’une sensibilité qui lui est propre, tout autant que ses lettres professionnelles, qui témoignent du processus de son émancipation littéraire. Cette correspondance nous permettra également, en dernière partie, de lever le voile sur les influences féminines de l’écrivaine.

Esboçamentos de corpossom: a escrita do corpo na víscera do som. / Draftlinings of corpossom [bodysound]: the writing of the body in the viscera of sound.

Ribeiro, Francisco Lauridsen 13 March 2019 (has links)
Neste trabalho se busca pensar a individuação conjunta do corpo e do som, através da improvisação e segmentos de roteiros performáticos. Assim, colhemos traços metodológicos da atuação teatral para pensar as relações entre produção de corpo, som e vocalização. Para fazer jus a essa lógica, cada segmento da tese se debruçou em uma prática produtiva de corpo: caminhada, desenho e conversação. Guiei-me, para esse campo operativo, na noção de transdução, conforme trabalhada por Gilbert Simondon. É escritura, portanto, experimental, que compromete o tecido argumentativo de uma tese com procedimentos oriundos de outros ambientes, mais instáveis, como a precariedade do caderno. Referência vitalista nesse caso é o Artaud tardio (1943-1948). Focalizamos, em sobreposição, as práticas dos núcleos de corpossom, coletivos de dimensões artístico-pedagógicas que se envolveram no trabalho acima descrito. / In this work we seek to think about the combined individuation of body and sound, through improvisation and segments of performance routines. Thus, we collect methodological traits of theatrical performance to think about relations between body generation, sound and vocalization. To make justice to this logic, each segment of the thesis has looked over on a generative body practice: walking, drawing and conversation. I guided myself, for this operative field, by the notion of transduction, as worked by Gilbert Simondon. It is scripture, therefore, experimental, which compromises the argumentative fabric of a thesis with procedures from other, more unstable environments, such as the precariousness of the notebook. Vitalist reference in this case is the last Artaud (1943-1948). We focused, in overlapping, the practices of the nuclei of corpossom [bodysound], collective of artistic-pedagogical dimensions that were involved in the work described above.

Caleidoscopio violeta : una aproximación a la subalternidad en "Primera muerte de María" de Jorge Eduardo Eielson

Rodriguez Barreno, Mariana de Jesús 23 July 2015 (has links)
El presente trabajo reflexiona sobre la construcción de la subalternidad en “Primera muerte de María” de Jorge Eduardo Eielson. El objetivo es demostrar cómo los sujetos subalternos se ven envueltos en relaciones de poder que los sujetan a estamentos fijos sin posibilidad de agencia. A través del personaje de María Magdalena se abordará la subalternidad desde lo femenino para demostrar cómo, en función a criterios coloniales, la mujer es reducida a estereotipos y convertida en un objeto. De otro lado, se analizará en la instancia de los pescadores, José y Pedro, la subalternidad en el encuentro con la modernidad de la urbe. A partir de este choque cultural, los personajes se enfrentan al Estado y sus agentes en un contexto crítico: la contaminación del mar peruano. Ello señala la fragmentación fundacional de la realidad peruana que impide la articulación de todos los sujetos dentro de la nación al no resolverse su situación. Finalmente, en función a esta falta, se presenta a Lady Ciclotrón, identidad alterna de María Magdalena y bailarina de striptease, como un sujeto que a través del arte encuentra una vía de escape que le permite clamar por un lugar en la representación de la realidad. / Tesis
