EC28-234 Nebraska System for Tattooing Hogs for Identification after Slaughter

A plan to identify the individual farm upon which hogs reaching markets are produced has been developed in connection with the efforts toward eradicating tuberculosis among farm animals. While primarily intended as a means of tracing back to determine sources of disease infection, the system of tattooing which is being developed has other significant possibilities. With the growing emphasis on quality products in the market, it is only fair that the producers of high quality commodities receive the premiums paid by processors and consumers. Health of farm animals is a quality factor. The producer of healthy hogs should be rewarded. Likewise, the producer of diseased hogs profits from knowledge that his animals are infected and can institute efforts to control that source fo loss. This 1928 extension circular covers what each letter of a tattoo stands for, where it is to be placed on an animal, and material used in tattooing.

Letter containing a memorandum of the work done during Nov. 1855 by Messrs. Brown and McDonell

Letter containing a memorandum of the work done during Nov. 1855 by Messrs. Brown and McDonell. The work done includes track laying and timber in culverts. There is also a section of the road between St. Catharines and the Great Western Railway where earth has been removed, posts set and laid. This is signed by Francis Lalor, Dec. 12, 1855.

Letter to S.D. Woodruff from Fred Holmes

Letter to S.D. Woodruff from Fred Holmes stating that Edward Henderson has completed the excavation of section 1 on the Marshville tap drain, June 30, 1856.

Letter to S.D. Woodruff from Fred Holmes

Letter to S.D. Woodruff from Fred Holmes stating that Mr. Cook has chopped and cleared the back ditch near Lyons Creek Culvert, Mr. Clancy has chopped lots 22, 23 and 24, Rose Osborne has excavated and cleared 1000 feet on the Daly ditch and Andrew Mains and Co. have chopped and cleared their whole section, Oct. 31, 1856.

Letter to S.D. Woodruff from Fred Holmes

Letter to S.D. Woodruff from Fred Holmes. He says that A. Mains has finished levelling the road through his section of the marsh ditching and is in want of any back monies. Mr. Clancy has also levelled the roadway but there is too much water to do the bottoming. He does not want money until the final completion of his job, June 30, 1857.

Letter (copy) in three sections. The first part is addressed to Henry Nelles from M. Douglass. The second part is also addressed to Henry Nelles and is signed Mr. D. The third part is addressed to Mr. Griffen from George M. Richardson

Letter (copy) in three sections (1 ½ pages, handwritten). The first part is addressed to Henry Nelles from M. Douglass in which Mr. Douglass says he has enclosed $50. This section is dated Feb. 8, 1830. The second part is also addressed to Henry Nelles and is signed Mr. D. This is the section that says “your letter has just come stating that you had received a letter but the $50 was not in the letter. There was $50 in it when it left this post office. This is dated Feb. 14, 1830. The third part is addressed to Mr. Griffen from George M. Richardson. It says that this is to certify that Mr. Douglass did mail $50 on the 18th of this month. This letter is stained and slightly torn. Some of the text is affected. [This letter has to do with the case about the missing money which is included in this collection], Feb. 8, 1830.

Letter (2 letters contained in one with a total of 2 pages) addressed to Henry Nelles. The first part is from Gilles Moffatt and he says that there is a balance of 277 pounds and 13 shillings in their favour. This is dated Jan. 10, 1831. The second part is addressed to Henry Nelles from R. Gillespie and it says that he intends to go to London district before paying Mr. Nelles a visit in Grimsby. The second page of this letter is stained and missing a section. Text is slightly affected, Jan. 29, 1831.

Measurement of the W+ W- cross section in sqrt(s) = 7 TeV pp collisions with ATLAS

This Letter presents a measurement of the W+ W- production cross section in sqrt(s) = 7  TeV pp collisions by the ATLAS experiment, using 34  pb(-1) of integrated luminosity produced by the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. Selecting events with two isolated leptons, each either an electron or a muon, 8 candidate events are observed with an expected background of 1.7 ± 0.6 events. The measured cross section is 41(-16)(+20)(stat) ± 5(syst)±1(lumi)  pb, which is consistent with the standard model prediction of 44 ± 3  pb calculated at next-to-leading order in QCD.

Measurement of the high-mass Drell–Yan differential cross-section in pp collisions at with the ATLAS detector

This Letter reports a measurement of the high-mass Drell-Yan differential cross-section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC. Based on an integrated luminosity of 4.9 fb^-^1, the differential cross-section in the Z/@c^@?->e^+e^- channel is measured with the ATLAS detector as a function of the invariant mass, m_e_e, in the range 11625 GeV and pseudorapidity |@h|<2.5. A comparison is made to various event generators and to the predictions of perturbative QCD calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order.

3.3 Charlie Houston Letter to Walter on May 24, 1938

Although Lloyd Gaines’ battle against the University of Missouri, and ultimately the Jim Crow laws emanating from Plessy v Ferguson, was, on the surface, not faring too well, Charles Hamilton Houston, however, was pleased.
