  • Geology and Mineral Resources of Douglas County
    STATE OF OREGON DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND MINERAL INDUSTRIES 1069 State Office Building Portland, Oregon 97201 BU LLE TIN 75 GEOLOGY & MINERAL RESOURCES of DOUGLAS COUNTY, OREGON Le n Ra mp Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries The preparation of this report was financially aided by a grant from Doug I as County GOVERNING BOARD R. W. deWeese, Portland, Chairman William E. Miller, Bend Donald G. McGregor, Grants Pass STATE GEOLOGIST R. E. Corcoran FOREWORD Douglas County has a history of mining operations extending back for more than 100 years. During this long time interval there is recorded produc­ tion of gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, mercury, and nickel, plus lesser amounts of other metalliferous ores. The only nickel mine in the United States, owned by The Hanna Mining Co., is located on Nickel Mountain, approxi­ mately 20 miles south of Roseburg. The mine and smelter have operated con­ tinuously since 1954 and provide year-round employment for more than 500 people. Sand and gravel production keeps pace with the local construction needs. It is estimated that the total value of all raw minerals produced in Douglas County during 1972 will exceed $10, 000, 000 . This bulletin is the first in a series of reports to be published by the Department that will describe the general geology of each county in the State and provide basic information on mineral resources. It is particularly fitting that the first of the series should be Douglas County since it is one of the min­ eral leaders in the state and appears to have considerable potential for new discoveries during the coming years.

  • Complex Price Dynamics in Vertically Linked Cobweb Markets in Less Developed Countries
    Complex Price Dynamics in Vertically Linked Cobweb Markets in Less Developed Countries Muhammad Imran Chaudhry Karachi School for Business & Leadership Karachi, Pakistan imran.chaudhry@ksbl. edu.pk Mario J. Miranda Department of Agricultural, Environmental & Development Economics The Ohio State University Columbus, OH, USA [email protected] February 16, 2017 Abstract Advances in nonlinear dynamics have resuscitated interest in the theory of endogenous price fluctuations. In this paper, we enrich the traditional cobweb model by incorporating vertical linkages between agricultural markets, an important aspect of agricultural production in less developed countries that has been largely ignored by the existing literature on chaotic cobweb models. To this end, under sufficiently general cost and demand functions, we develop a parsimonious, dynamic model to capture mutual interdependencies between upstream and downstream markets arising from the vertically linked structure of agricultural values chains. The model is solved under the naïve expectations hypothesis to derive a system of coupled, time- delay difference equations characterizing price dynamics in vertically linked cobweb markets. Mathematical and numerical analyses reveal that vertical linkages between downstream and upstream cobweb markets have profound effects on local stability, global price dynamics and onset of chaos. We also add an empirical dimension to an otherwise theoretical literature by benchmarking moments of prices simulated by our model against actual poultry value chain price data from Pakistan. Simulated prices reproduce the stylized patterns observed in the actual price data, i.e., quasi-periodic behavior, positive first-order autocorrelation, relatively higher variation in upstream prices compared to downstream prices, low skewness and negative kurtosis. In doing so the paper addresses a major criticism of the theory of endogenous price fluctuations, most notably the failure of chaotic cobweb models to adequately replicate positively autocorrelated prices.

  • Foreign Seeds and Plants
    U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. DIVISION OF BOTANY. IXVENTOJIY NO. 7. FOREIGN SEEDS AND PLANTS IMPORTED JiY THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, THROUGH THE SECTION OF SEED AND PLANT INTRODUCTION, FOR DISTRIBUTION IN COOPERA- TION WITH THE STATE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATIONS. NUMBERS 2701-3400. INVENTORY OF FOREIGN SEEDS AND PLANTS. INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT. The present inventoiy or catalogue of seeds and plants includes the collections of the agricultural explorers of the Section of Seed and Plant Introduction, as well as a large number of donations from mis- cellaneous sources. There are a series of new and interesting vege- tables, field crops, ornamentals, and forage plants secured by Mr. Walter T. Swingle in France, Algeria, and Asia Minor. Another important exploration was that conducted by Mr. Mark A. Carleton, an assistant in the Division of Vegetable Physiology and Pathology. The wheats and other cereals were published in Inventoiy No. 4, but notices of many of Mr. Carleton\s miscellaneous importations are printed here for the first time. The fruits and ornamentals collected by Dr. Seaton A. Knapp in Japan are here listed, together with a number of Chinese seeds from the Yangtze Valley, presented by Mr. G. D. Brill, of Wuchang. Perhaps the most important items are the series of tropical and subtropical seeds and plants secured through the indefatigable efforts of Hon. Barbour Lathrop, of Chicago. Mr. Lathrop, accompanied by Mr. David G. Fairchild, formerly in charge of the Section of Seed and Plant Introduction, conducted at his own expense an extended exploration through the West Indies, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Brazil, and Argentina, and procured many extremely valuable seeds and plants, some of which had never been previously introduced into this country.

    P ARK HOUSE STABLES SPRING MAGAZINE 2021 INTRODUCTION P ARK HOUSE STABLES AMB t is hard to believe that twelve months have passed since we first entered a COVID-19 lockdown. 2020 is a year that few people will want to Iremember, with hardships for so many. There is, however, light at the end of the tunnel, and as spring approaches and more people are vaccinated perhaps it is time to start believing that this summer might resemble something we probably all took for granted in pre-COVID years. Never again will I complain about not finding a parking space at the racecourse or having to queue for a coffee in the Owners & Trainers bar! With the prospect of normality approaching we have embarked upon some exciting new projects for the coming season. With our absolute priority remaining to achieve the best and safest working surfaces for the horses we have replaced the Side Glance gallop with an Activetrack surface from Martin Collins. This has already proved to be a huge success, as has the building of an arena to help with the re-training of a small selection of retired racehorses at Kingsclere and to give a further training option for BOUNCE THE BLUES gleaming in the winter sun as she heads out to exercise horses who need a change from the gallops. I am delighted to report the renewal of the King Power sponsorship of Front cover: Reunited – ARCTIC VEGA and devoted groom the yard for 2021, and with this support we have been anxious to improve Shelby Joubert the facilities for our human residents as well as the equine ones.

  • Swahili-English Dictionary, the First New Lexical Work for English Speakers
    S W AHILI-E N GLISH DICTIONARY Charles W. Rechenbach Assisted by Angelica Wanjinu Gesuga Leslie R. Leinone Harold M. Onyango Josiah Florence G. Kuipers Bureau of Special Research in Modern Languages The Catholic University of Americ a Prei Washington. B. C. 20017 1967 INTRODUCTION The compilers of this Swahili-English dictionary, the first new lexical work for English speakers in many years, hope that they are offering to students and translators a more reliable and certainly a more up-to-date working tool than any previously available. They trust that it will prove to be of value to libraries, researchers, scholars, and governmental and commercial agencies alike, whose in- terests and concerns will benefit from a better understanding and closer communication with peoples of Africa. The Swahili language (Kisuiahili) is a Bantu language spoken by perhaps as many as forty mil- lion people throughout a large part of East and Central Africa. It is, however, a native or 'first' lan- guage only in a nnitp restricted area consisting of the islands of Zanzibar and Pemba and the oppo- site coast, roughly from Dar es Salaam to Mombasa, Outside this relatively small territory, elsewhere in Kenya, in Tanzania (formerly Tanganyika), Copyright © 1968 and to a lesser degree in Uganda, in the Republic of the Congo, and in other fringe regions hard to delimit, Swahili is a lingua franca of long standing, a 'second' (or 'third' or 'fourth') language enjoy- ing a reasonably well accepted status as a supra-tribal or supra-regional medium of communication.

I SIT down to perform my promise of giving you an account of a visit made many years since to Abbotsford. I hope, how^ever, that you do not expect much from me, for the traveUing notes taken at the time are so scanty and vague, and my memory so extremely fallacious, that I fear I shall disappoint you with the meagreness and crudeness of my details. Late in the evening of the 29th August, 1816, I arrived at the ancient little border town of Selkirk, where I put up for the night. I had come down from Edinburgh, partly to visit Mel- rose Abbey and its vicinity, but chiefly to get a sight of the " mighty minstrel of the north." I had a letter of introduction to him from Thomas Campbell the poet, and had reason to think, from the interest he had taken in some of my earlier scribblings, that a visit from me would not be deemed an intrusion.

On rockets and spacecraft, paints provide mental protection, and temperature control. UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE"'"' Alexander B. Trowbridge, Secretary '~~T A NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS • A. V. Astin, Director A/7 Organic Coatings Properties, Selection, and Use Aaron Gene jRobeils Building Research Division Institute for Applied Technology National Bureau of Standards Washington, D.C. 20234 Building Science Series 7 Issued February 1968 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D.C. 20402 - Price $2.50 Abstract This publication was prepared to fill the need for a comprehensive, unifying treatise in the field of organic coatings. Besides presenting practical information on the properties, selection, and use of organic coatings (and certain inorganic coatings), it provides basic principles in a number of important areas such as polymer structure, coatings formulation, pigment function, use of thinners, coating system compatibility, and theory of corrosion. Each chapter deals with a major area of the coatings field, including types of coatings, properties of synthetic resins, selection of coating systems, storage and safety, application methods, and surface preparation and pretreatment. There is also a consolidating chapter with illustrative examples of solutions to typical coatings problems. Interrelationships among the various areas of information are indicated through appropriate cross-referencing in the text.
