Two rivers: form and development in Edward McGuire's "Source"
McGuireâs âSource: Reflections on Neil Gunnâs novel Highland Riverâ is a key work in the composerâs output, bringing together various strands of his characteristic working methods and embodying a distinctive approach to formal development. The author seeks to locate the work with reference to some characteristics of Celtic culture and to aspects of 20th century modernism in music, but also employs Hugh MacDiarmidâs poem âBy Wauchopsideâ in an investigation of the psychological, developmental and aesthetic implications of the musical work

An introduction to the Princeton sailwing windmill
Specifically discussed is the sailwing windmill. The aerodynamic characteristics of the sailwing itself are presented in condensed form and its natural application to the wind machine is discussed. Past and present sailwing windmill configurations are shown and their relative merits are compared. A section on a future promising configuration is presented and its compatibility to advanced technology electrical machinery is briefly discussed. Also included is a short bibliography
Seeding Rates and Fertilizer Placement to Improve Strip-Till and No-Till Corn
In 2013, late planting resulted in corn yields that were less than 110 bu/a. Yields were not increased with seeding rates above 26,000/a, but a small increase in yield was obtained with knife applications of fertilizer nitrogen (N) compared with dribble
Tillage and Nitrogen Placement Effects on Yields in a Short-Season Corn/Wheat/Double-Crop Soybean Rotation
Conventional tillage resulted in greater corn yield in 2015 than with reduced tillage or no-till. A tillage Ă N fertilizer treatment interaction showed that N placement did not affect corn yield in conventional or reduced tillage systems, but subsurface knife N placement in no-till resulted in greater yield than when N was surface-applied
Tillage and Nitrogen Placement Effects on Yields in a Short-Season Corn/Wheat/ Double-Crop Soybean Rotation
In 2016, adding nitrogen (N) greatly improved average wheat yields, but the response to tillage and different N placement methods was minimal. Double-crop soybean yields were unaffected by tillage or the residual from N treatments that were applied to the previous wheat crop
