Book Description
Five years ago, the hunt for the Axewoman of Tucson brought together four mismatched sleuths who have now formed Union Jack Investigations. The British expat Wilde Sinclair founded Union Jack, bringing along Salem psychic Deliverance Dane, ex-detective Michael Quintana, and ex-police lieutenant Victor Renard. For these four, all is well in life and love. Sadly, its just a calm before the storm as death once again disturbs the desert city of Tucson, Arizona. The case hits the Union Jack team personally, and they must quickly uncover the killer and his motives. As the investigation continues, it becomes obvious that there is some link between the old series of murders and the new ones. As the clock ticks down on murder after murder, there is no discernible pattern to the perpetrators purpose or selection of victims. As multiple madmen converge on the heart of the city, it becomes clear that the Union Jack four are targets, but why? Past actions and secrets play a part in the final denouement as savagery and hatred home in on the innocent as well as guilty.

Native Plants for Southwestern Landscapes
Author: Judy Mielke
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 029278810X
Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
A guide to xeriscaping for eco-conscious gardeners living in desert climates. For gardeners who want to conserve water, the color, fragrance, shade, and lush vegetation of a traditional garden may seem like a mirage in the desert. But such gardens can flourish when native plants grow in them. In this book, Judy Mielke, an expert on Southwestern gardening, offers the most comprehensive guide available to landscaping with native plants. Writing simply enough for beginning gardeners, while also providing ample information for landscape professionals, she presents over three hundred trees, shrubs, vines, grasses, groundcovers, wildflowers, cacti, and other native plants suited to arid landscapes. The heart of the book lies in the complete descriptions and beautiful color photographs of plants native to the Mojave, Sonoran, and Chihuahuan desert regions of the Southwestern United States and northern Mexico. Mielke characterizes each plant and gives detailed information on its natural habitat, its water, soil, light, temperature, and pruning requirements, and its possible uses in landscape design. In addition, Mielke includes informative discussions of desert ecology, growing instructions for native plants and wildflowers, and “how-to” ideas for revegetation of disturbed desert areas using native plants. She concludes the book with an extensive list of plants by type, including those that have specific features such as shade or fragrance. She also supplies a list of public gardens that showcase native plants.

Feeding Wheat to Livestock
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Agricultural prices
Languages : en
Pages : 774
Book Description
Wheat is not usually regarded as a substitute for corn as a feed for livestock, but a small carry-over of old corn and a new crop greatly reduced by drought leaves many farmers short of corn for feed. With the other feed grain supplies only about equal to the amounts normally fed, the main source of making up the shortage of corn is wheat.

Market Diseases of Fruits and Vegetables
Author: Carroll Van Rennsaeleer Sweet
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Agricultural colleges
Languages : en
Pages : 1130
Book Description
The decade since the World War has been in many ways the most extraordinary period in American agriculture. For the first time in the Nation's history, the census of 1925 showed a decrease (since 1920) in crop acreage, in farm animals, in number of farms, and in farm population. Nevertheless, agricultural production increased more rapidly from 1922 to 1926, inclusive, than in any period since 1900, and probably since 1890, when the agricultural occupation of the prairies approached completion.
