The herbarium of the State College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts has been carefully canvassed. For many of the ideas advanced I am indebted to Dr. J. W. Blankenship who has given me free access to his private note books and much personal assistance. The excellent libraries of the College and Dr. Blankenship have been carefully reviewed, and are often referred to in the following pages. During the last nine years, I have visited many of the highest peaks in person. The summer of each year being spent as follows: 1894 in the Yellowstone Nat. Park. 1895 in the Bull Mountains and Little Belt-range. 1896 and 1897 in the Little Belt and Judith ranges. 1898 in the Big Belt and Crazy Mts. 1899 in the Big Belt chain, and 1900, 1901 and 1902 in the Bear Tooth range between Wyoming and the Yellowstone River. Not all of this time has been given up to botanical work. Many days have been spent in geological studies and prospecting. Some have been given up completely to hunting and fishing or exploring the uninhabited portions of the mountains; others have been devoted to ethical and aesthetical pleasures towards which the mountains always draw one so irresistibly. For these latter days I have no excuse to offer. They are the alpine summits of human existence.Item Preliminary flora of Gallatin county(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1901) Jones, Wyatt W.The plan of this work has been to compile a complete list of all the plants occurring In Gallatin County. This includes all the Indigenous Phanerogams and such introduced species as have become thoroughly established under natural conditions, and those cultivated plants that shown a disposition to escape and degenerate as weeds, as well as the vascular-cryptogams, with brief notes as to relative abundance and habitat. These notes, with few exceptions, are based upon my own observation and knowledge. Beginning with the Ranunculaceae the vidus have been arranged as in Gray's Manual of Botany. Revised Edition, the genera and species being arranged alphabetically under the vidus. The work is based largely upon the Herbarium of the Montana State College of Agriculture. It includes also a large collection of undistributed material collected by Dr, J. W. Blankinship and other small collections. Dr. Rydberg's flora of Montana has been used as a reference book. The region covered is essentially mountainous but varies in altitude from 4000 to 11000 feet thus furnishing species from alpine to plains. Probably no other portion of the state contains so extensive a flora as Gallatin County.Item The leafhoppers of Montana(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1928) Fox, David EgbertItem Factors influencing the quality of Montana spring wheat with special emphasis on protein content(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1927) Watenpaugh, Howard N.Item A study of the anatomy and histology of the digestive tract of tabanus atratus Fabricus(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1917) Wells, Roscoe W.In spite of the importance of many species of Tabanidae as parasites of horses and cattle, as pests of man and as possible agents in the transmission of certain diseases, very little has been published dealing with their internal anatomy. This lack of literature is especially noticeable concerning American species. The most valuable work on the subject to date is that of Patton and Craig (Text book of Medical Entomology), which concerns species native to India. The present paper is a result of a study of the anatomy and histology of the digestive tract of Tabanus atratus Fabricius and is submitted as a part of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science.Item A study of the climatic conditions favoring the abundance of groups of cutworm moths (Phalaenidae)(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1928) Tinkham, Ernest R.
