    ON THE SIZE DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH IN CANADA (1979)

    Notes: This paper is concerned with measurement of the size distribution of personal wealth in Canada. The only available estimates of this distribution are those provided on the occasions when Statistics Canada's Survey of Consumer Finance has surveyed assets and debts. Results of the latest “SCF” to do this, that of 1977, are not yet available. The paper shows that the previous study, conducted in 1970, indicated wealth-inequality as viewed by top quantile shares roughly of the same order as estimated by others for the U.S. and U.K. A comparison of asset and debt aggregates implied by the survey, however, with independent totals indicates that for almost all items the SCF likely under-estimated true holdings. The possible relative importance of sampling and non-sampling errors in explaining this distortion is considered, drawing on Monte Carlo evidence and American validation studies of survey response. It is concluded that sampling error is unlikely to provide the explanation for SCF discrepancies in aggregates, but that non-sampling error is capable of doing so. Finally the 1970 SCF distribution of wealth is re-estimated. First a correction is made for hypothetical differential response according to true net worth. Second an attempt is made to remove the effects of under-reporting by respondents. The “best-guess” re-estimated distribution exhibits mean net worth considerably greater than shown by the SCF but only a slightly greater degree of concentration. Under certain fundamental assumptions this result is surprisingly robust. The appropriate conclusion is not that survey estimates of the distribution of wealth are reliable, but that the strong non-sampling errors affecting the 1970 Canadian SCF wealth estimates may have been composed of almost completely offsetting sources of bias.

    Plant interference and chemical toxins in upland pastures (1994)

    Notes: Supernatants derived from desiccated plant material gathered from Agrostis/Festuca vegetation had an inhibitory effect on the germination and early development of seedlings of Trifolium repens cv. S184. Two compounds, o-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid and benzoic acid, were identified chromatographically and their structures confirmed by mass spectrometry. Commercial preparations of the two compounds were effective inhibitors at a concentration of 10−2 and 10−3m respectively when T. repens was used as the phytometer species. Benzoic acid lost its inhibitory effect when the pH of the two solutions was adjusted to pH 5·5. The roots of seedlings of white clover were severely distorted by o-hydroxyphenylpropionic add at 10−3m. It is likely that phenolic acids, produced from the surface trash created by slot seeding procedures, interfere with the establishment of white clover in upland pastures.

    A COMPARISON OF RYEGRASS VARIETIES FOR EARLY–BITE PRODUCTION (1965)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: The value of varieties of Italian, hybrid and Westerwold ryegrass for early-bite production was compared at 32 centres in different environments. The relative performance of Italian ryegrass varieties was fairly consistent from centre to centre over a period of 3 years. Danish and Leda Daehnfeldt Italians produced the most, and S22 the least, early spring production. Good early-bite and total annual yields were obtained from hybrid ryegrasses. Swards sown in the previous autumn were more winter-hardy than spring-sown swards and appeared to be as early in the following year.

    EARLY BITE ON WELSH FARMS (1961)

    Notes: The practice of‘early bite’ was surveyed on sixty dairy farms in Wales during the period 1958–60. Assessment in a financial sense was made of the pros and cons of this practice. It was obvious that‘early bite’ was wasted or misused on many farms.

    Varying the time of spraying with paraquat or glyphosate before direct drilling of grass and clover seeds with and without calcium peroxide (1981)

    Notes: The practise of sward desiccation using glyphosate or paraquat followed by direct drilling of seed gave an environment which increasingly inhibited germination and establishment when the interval between spraying and drilling was decreased from 21 days to nil. Burning or removal of old sward improved establishment. Calcium peroxide used as a seed dressing improved seedling establishment in most treatments.

    COMPETITION FOR PHOSPHATE BETWEEN A DIPLOID AND A TETRAPLOID PERENNIAL RYEGRASS (1974)

    Notes: The relative uptake of P was measured in two varieties of Lolium perenne using radioactive tracer techniques. The diploid cv. Hora and the tetraploid cv. Terhoy were sown as pure stands and as 50:50 mixtures at both high and low density. Uptake from four depths 10, 20, 30 and 40 cm was examined. The results showed that: in pure stands the diploid uptake at 10 cm exceeded that of the tetraploid although at deeper levels the uptake pattern was similar; in mixtures the uptake of the tetraploid variety increased markedly at 10 cm while that of the diploid variety decreased. The diploid compensated for its decreased uptake at 10 cm by a substantial increase in uptake at 20 cm; overall the tetraploid variety had a deeper pattern of uptake than the diploid; in general, uptake at high density was greater than that at low density; the mixture showed a greater degree of P utilization than pure stands in the upper layers of the soil; when these two varieties are grown together in 50:50 mixtures the tetraploid is relatively more efficient in taking up.

    BLOOD VOLUME CHANGES AND SODIUM DISTRIBUTION IN PATIENTS WITH BURNS (1968)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences 150 (1968), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1749-6632

    Notes: In a recent study of the effects of various forms of therapy given during the first 48 hr to patients with burns, colloidal solutions were shown to be more effective in maintaining blood volume levels than only hypotonic saline solutions (Davies, 1964). Since these patients also received different amounts of sodium, the question whether the different inputs of sodium may have modified the changes in blood volume was left open.This study attempts an assessment of the effects of differing inputs of sodium upon blood volume levels. A direct comparison has been made between the blood volume levels in patients given equal volumes of either hypotonic bicarbonate saline or isotonic lactate saline. A more complex comparison has been devised for patients with burns of more than 40% of the body surface since they were also given varying volumes of colloid–usually reconstituted freeze-dried plasma.Since all these forms of therapy result in substantial intakes of sodium, a study has also been made of some of the effects of these large intakes using two radioactive isotopes of sodium. Measurements have been made of the biological half-life of sodium, its total exchangeable content, the dilution volume of sodium, and the amounts of sodium lost in urine and exudate.
