Dr. Stewart H. Fowler, head of the animal science dept., is pictured with a bull that was donated by Midland Manufacturing Co. of Electric Mills, MS. Also on hand for the donation were E. H. Woods (Midland president), Harrison Evans (owner of N-Bar Herefords), and Charlie Moore (manager of N-Bar Herefords).https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/ua-photo-collection/3973/thumbnail.jp

Estimating plasma volume in neonatal Holstein calves fed one or two feedings of a lacteal-based colostrum replacer using Evans blue dye and hematocrit values at various time points.

Twenty-eight Holstein calves were blocked by birth date and randomly assigned to one of two treatments to investigate the effect of colostrum replacer (CR) feeding regimen on plasma volume (PV). Treatments were: 1) one feeding of CR (C1; 3L of reconstituted CR 675 g of powder providing 184.5 g of IgG at birth) or 2) two feedings of CR (C2; 2L of reconstituted CR at birth and 1 L of reconstituted CR at six h). By 6 h of age, all calves had received 3L of CR providing 184.5 g of IgG. Plasma volume was estimated at six, 12, 18, and 24 h after birth using Evans blue dye (EBD). No treatment effects were noted at any time points (P \u3e 0.05). Mean PV for all calves regardless of treatment at six, 12, 18, and 24 h were 78.6, 89.2, 83.9, and 90.7 mL kg-1 of BW, respectively. Plasma volume was correlated with hematocrit (HCT), initial HCT, and treatment. Hematocrit was correlated with PV, initial HCT, and body weight. Hematocrit for six, 12, 18 and 24 h after birth can be predicted with an initial precolostral HCT determination

Aubrey Beardsley, H. S. Nichols, and the Decadent Archive

The spring of 1919 in New York must have been an exciting time and place for devotees of the work of the decadent British artist Aubrey Beardsley. On 20th March of that year, the Anderson Galleries, a prominent auction house, held a sale of original Beardsley drawings formerly in the collection of Frederick H. Evans. Evans, a British photographer, had been Beardsley’s friend, and the artist responsible for the famous portrait photograph of Beardsley posing with his head held in his long, tapering fingers. The sale, which had been preceded by an exhibition, proved that the appetite for Beardsley’s work had only grown in the 21 years since the artist’s death; one drawing was reported to have sold for the tidy sum of $630 – an unequivocal sign that, among art collectors at least, ’nineties decadence could still command a robust market
