Chromite Deposits Near Red Lodge and Silver Star, Montana

The Red Lodge and Silver Star chromite deposits of Montana have stimulated much interest during periods of war. The Red Lodge deposit is 25 miles southwest of Red Lodge which is also the nearest railroad point. Several workings are scattered throughout the area, exposing lense-like ore bodies averaging 33% chrome oxide. Silver Star is a much smaller deposit 5 miles west of Silver Star, Montana, which is its nearest rail­road point. Lenses of chromite are exposed by pits and trench­es, which average approximately 36% chromic oxide.

Tax and equality in 1972: The case of Lodge v FCT

This paper is part of a larger project described at http://www.law.uq.edu.au/australian-feminist-judgments-project as follows: This project draws its inspiration from two significant recent developments in law and feminist scholarship. The first has been the emergence in Canada and the UK of feminist judgment-writing projects, in which feminist academics, lawyers and activists have written alternative judgments in a series of legal cases, imagining the different decision that might have been made by a feminist judge hearing the case. The second has been the incremental shift in recent years in the number of women judges and Magistrates presiding in courts and tribunals throughout Australia. As part of this project, a group of scholars will write alternative feminist judgments. This paper is one of the alternative feminist judgements. The case used for this discussion is Lodge v Federal Commissioner of Tax [1972] HCA 49. In that case, a woman, earning income by way of commission in her occupation as a law costs clerk, which she carried out at her home, claimed to deduct from her assessable income child care fees that enabled her to devote time and attention to her work. The High Court held that no right to a deduction had arisen. It found that, although the purpose of the expenditure was for gaining assessable income, it did not take place in, or in the course of, preparing bills of cost. Further, the expenditure was of a ‘private or domestic’ nature. This seminal taxation decision, which prevents deductions for childcare, has broad financial ramifications for workers in the home and those with childcare responsibilities. It designates childcare duties as ‘private’, notwithstanding the need for these in order, particularly for women, to work in the public sphere.

Evaluación de cinco fungicidas para el manejo de enfermedades foliares y su rentabilidad en el cultivo de tomate (Lycopersicom esculentum mill) c.v. butte, Sébaco, Matagalpa, Nicaragua

El presente trabajo se realizó en la Finca Surco Muerto, Municipio de Sébaco–Matagalpa en el período comprendido de Julio a octubre del 2004, con la finalidad de evaluar diferentes productos fungicidas sistémicos (Phyton 0.5 L. ha-1, Benomil 0.5 kg ha-1 y Curzate 2 kg ha-1) y preventivos (Mancozeb 2 kg ha-1 y Clorotalonil 2 L. ha-1) en el manejo de enfermedades foliares en tomate. El diseño establecido fué el de Bloques Completos al Azar (BCA),con siete tratamientos y cuatro repeticiones. Los resultados indican que el efecto de los tratamientos evaluados sobre el control de Alternaria solani enlas primeras fechas no demuestran diferencia estadística, hasta los 62 días después del trasplante (ddt), donde Clorotalonil se comportó como el mejor tratamiento en protección al follaje.Para la variable severidad de Xanthomonas campestris en follaje los resultados indican, que es a partir de los 78 ddt donde los tratamientos demuestran diferencia estadística, comportándose Phyton como el mejor tratamiento para el manejo de dicha enfermedad.El cultivo también fué fuerte mente afectado por Mosca blanca(Bemisia tabaciGenn.) lo que repercutió en porcentajes de severidad de virosis muy altos(92%),enmascarando un mejor efecto que pudieron haber tenido los tratamientos evaluados. Enrelación a las variables de rendimiento analizadas por contrastes ortogonales, para la variable peso de frutos buenos, el análisis no encontró diferencias estadísticas entre los grupos evaluados.Para la variable peso de frutos afectados por Alternaria el análisis detectó diferencias estadísticas entre los grupos evaluados donde el grupo de los Preventivos (Clorotalonil y Mancozeb) ejercieron mejor control para dicho patógeno por haberse obtenido con ellos los más bajos rendimientos afectados con 40.85 kg ha-1. En la variable peso de frutos afectados por Xanthomonas Campestris pvvesicatoria el análisis no encontró diferencias estadísticas entre los grupos comparados.Para el rendimiento real el análisis encontró diferencias estadísticas, donde demuestra que son los tratamientos preventivos (Mancozeb y Clorotalonil) los que ejercieron el mejor control con el más alto rendimiento 5658.56 kg ha-1.Los resultados del análisis económico indican que el tratamiento rentable es Mancozeb, por obtenerse con el una tasa de retorno marginal de 960.25%. En condiciones de bajo rendimiento es Alternado (Curzate + Clorotalonil +Mancozeb) el tratamiento rentable por obtenerse con el una TRM de 246.95%. Al realizar el análisis de sensibilidad los resultados demuestran que la aplicación de Mancozeb es justificable; aun cuando el precio del tomate disminuye en un 70%, de su precio original,ya que con precios bajos se obtiene una TRM de 1.98%.
