Abstract: A grain harvester for propulsion by a tractor over a field of grain growing on upwardly extending plant stems, the harvester having a housing supported and movable in a direction of travel over a field of grain by a tractor, an elongated cylindrical brush supported by the housing and rotating about a horizontal axis that is transverse to the housing direction of travel, the brush having bristles extending generally radially therefrom, shield members supported by the housing in planes parallel the brush rotational axis, the shield members providing an elongated air and grain intake opening, an air discharge opening and a grain discharge opening, the openings being spaced apart from each other, a grain bin supported by the harvester housing and connected with the grain discharge opening, the brush being rotated as the harvester is moved to draw air and grain into the housing through the air and grain intake opening and to dispel grain through the grain discharge opening into the grain bin, and to dispel air out

Abstract: Novel heteroarotinoid compositions characterized by the formulae: ##STR1## where: X is S or O; OAc is the acetate group ##STR2## and R is --H, --OH, --OCH.sub.3, or --OC.sub.2 H.sub.5 and includes ##STR3## for formulae (1) and (2). Such compositions exhibit activity as anticancer agents.

Abstract: Novel heteroarotinoid compositions characterized by the formulae: ##STR1## where R is H, CH.sub.3 or C.sub.2 H.sub.5 and X is S, S O, O, NCH.sub.3, Si(CH.sub.3).sub.2, N.sup.+ (H)CH.sub.3 [Cl.sup.- ], N.sup.+ (H)CH.sub.3 [Br.sup.- ] or N.sup.+ (alkyl) CH.sub.3 [Cl.sup.- or Br.sup.-) where alkyl is CH.sub.3, C.sub.2 H.sub.5, CH.sub.2 .dbd.CHCH.sub.2 or C.sub.6 H.sub.5 CH.sub.2. Such compositions exhibit activity as anticancer agents.

Abstract: A vertical air-root-pruning container involving a series of vertical offsets or air gaps displaced around the sidewall of a container. The offsets or air gaps are alternately displaced outwardly or inwardly to air-prune spiral root growth in both right and left directions. Such a container inhibits spiral growth, promotes root branching, and results in more even root distribution as well as increased root growth in the growing medium.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a high protein snack food including the steps of inoculating whey, such as derived from cheese making, with yeast, incubating the mixture with aeration until substantially all the whey lactose is utilized by the yeast, heating the culture to precipitate the whey protein, separating the whey protein and yeast cells to provide a paste-like material, mixing the whey protein and yeast cell paste with a filler composed of potato flakes or corn starch or a mixture of the two, plus either baking powder or baking soda (to reduce acidity), plus salt, and egg whites, into a dough, extruding the dough to provide snack-like pieces, frying the pieces in a deep fat fryer, and then cooking the fried pieces in a microwave oven.

Abstract: Azasteroids and certain derivatives each of a five ring system containing at least one aromatic nucleus and at least one nitrogen atom. The ring system is fused to a tetrahydrotetralin system or a tetrahydrophenanthrene system. The compounds have solubility in water and disclose antimicrobial, antifertility and potentiate the activity of antibiotics and certain anticancer agents.

Abstract: An arthropod repellent device for attachment to the pinnal portion of the ear of an agricultural animal, such as a cow, horse, sheep, goat, swine or the like, including a band or belt of flexible plastic material of about 3/8 inch to 11/2 inches wide and of a thickness of about 3/16 inch to about 3/8 inch, the material having an arthropod repellent chemical incorporated therein, the length of the band or belt being sufficient to encompass the base of the pinnal portion of the ear of the animal, or mostly thereof, to which it is applied, and means of penetrating the pinna and the band or belt to retain such in position around the base of the animal's ear pinnal portion. In one embodiment, a separate attachment element is employed to retain the band into position and in another embodiment, an attachment element is integral with the band or belt.
