Archaeological Survey and Testing: Castroville's County Village, Unit One, Medina County, Texas

Hays County, Texas

The widespread Berberis trifoliolata is sympatric with the narrowly restricted B. swaseyi in central Texas, where apparent intermediates occur. A detailed field study of sympatric populations in northern Hays Co. during 2004 to 2007 clarifies the morphological and phenological differences between the two species and shows that intermediates almost surely arose from hybridization. Limited eviden...

It is composed of struvite (NH4MgPO4 • 6H2O). The monohydrate dittmarite was not found. In addition to Mg and P, significant concentrations (^500 ppm) of Ca, K, and Fe and lesser amounts (^500 ppm) of Na, M...

Spatial and Temporal Variation in Fish Assemblage Structure in Village Creek, Hardin County, Texas

-Fish assemblages were sampled seasonally at Village Creek, a blackwater tributary of the Neches River in Hardin County, Texas. Forty-four fish species were captured from aquatic mesohabitats that included backwater pools, deep channel pools, sloping sandbanks, sandy riffles, and shallow channel margins. Associations between fish assemblage structure and mesohabitats were strong, yet also affec...

County wide tuberculin testing.

During the past 25 years tuberculin testing surveys have been used extensively and effectively in Minnesota’s fight against tuberculosis. The program started in the schools. S. A. Slater, Southwestern Minnesota Sanatorium, Worthington reported testing 1,654 rural children in 1924. The idea spread slowly at first but soon gained momentum. Now hundreds of communities in this state have routine ye...
