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 alpine flora of Montana(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1903) Hawkins, Pliny H.The data for this thesis Is gleaned from many sources. 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 A study of the correlation of the characters of barley(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1913) Hodgskiss, John EdwardThis study is made for the purpose of finding whether correlations are present in various characters of barley and also for the study of correlation in general. Until recently practically nothing has been done along this line, especially with barley. However, we find some attention has been paid to the correlation of nitrogen content, mealiness, color of grain and paleae, length and thickness of internodes, fineness of hull, average weight per kernel, and length of head. Most of this was done before the modern statistical method was introduced.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 dietary study of three institutions in Montana(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1924) Cooly, Elizabeth C.Item Harlem irrigation district(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Engineering, 1926) Heidel, Charles SumnerItem 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 effect of storage upon the vitamin C content of potatoes grown in Gallatin Valley(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1927) Jacobs, ErleneItem Effect of permanent deformation on elastic properties of metals(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Letters & Science, 1928) McVicker, GraceItem The leafhoppers of Montana(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1928) Fox, David EgbertItem 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.Item Fattening beef cattle in Montana(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1930) Pearson, Paul B.Item A study of the factors that may affect the leisure time of rural homemakers in Montana(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1930) Kuschke, Blanche MetheneyItem Humidity studies(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Letters & Science, 1930) Ambrose, Amy CookeItem Twenty Years at Montana State College(Montana State College, 1931) Herrick, Una B.Provides a history of women's activities at Montana State College from 1910-1931. "In unfolding the awakening desires of our college women-desires which step by step, day by day, year by year, at last reached their fulfillment in increased numbers of women students, in carefully chosen vocations, and in effective organization she has, in a measure, painted a miniature of the whole woman's movement. Skillfully she has correlated woman's development at Montana State College with woman's development everywhere. The keynote of the woman's movement has been a desire for self-expression, an expression of self which would lead to real service to her fellowmen. It has been a golden thread which has wound in and out through every forward step in her advancement. The work of Dean Una B. Herrick at Montana State College merits the highest commendation. She has fulfilled a duty which she most sincerely and devotedly felt that she owed to the women students of Montana State College. She has laid broad and enduring foundations, which, however, altered and remodeled to suit changing conditions, will n ever crumble. The undergraduate women and the alumnae of Montana State College owe her the deepest gratitude."Item A study of the selection, care and wearing qualities of silk hosiery(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1931) Baker, VivianItem A study of factors that may affect the deterioration of window furnishings(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1931) Eckhoff, Bernice HirschmanItem A study of the Vitamin C content of two varieties of potatoes as affected by winter storage(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1931) Mayfield, Helen L.Item A comparative study of baking effects produced by electric, gas and coal range ovens on yeast rolls(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Education, Health & Human Development, 1932) Haynes, Martha JohnsonItem An attempt to separate from petroleum spray oils the portion which is injurious to plants(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Letters & Science, 1932) Green, Jesse R.
