The present study conducted in two phases attempted to evaluate fertilizer grade Single super phosphate (SSP) vis-à-vis Di-calcium phosphate (DCP) in terms of their effect on production and health in dairy cows and buffaloes. Phase I entailed comparative evaluation of SSP and DCP in buffaloes and cows for their effects on health and production. It was conducted for one complete lactation on buffaloes and sahiwal cows (n=150) to evaluate in comparative terms the effect of feeding SSP and DCP on health, production and reproduction. For this purpose, animals were randomly divided into two treatment (DCP and super juice prepared from SSP) and one control group. Responses to the two treatments were examined on the basis of milk yield, weight gain and reproductive performance. Benefit-cost analysis of P supplementation from SSP or DCP (calculated on monthly additional milk yield basis only) in cows indicated that phosphorus supplementation from SSP was far more cost beneficial (benefit-cost ratio = 19.2: 1) than phosphorus supplementation from DCP (benefit-cost ratio = 1.2:1). In the case of buffalo, SSP and DCP respectively had a benefit-cost ratio of 26:1 and 2.83:1. Benefit-cost analysis of P supplementation from SSP and DCP also indicated that the P supplementation from either SSP or DCP was more cost effective in buffalo than in cow. In SSP supplemented cows and buffaloes, serum P levels (5.84 ± 0.13 mg/dl) were higher than those of cows and buffaloes treated with DCP (5.18 ± 0.10 mg/dl). The values of liver enzymes specific in bovine species viz: sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), glutamyl transferase (GGT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) recorded in DCP and SSP treated animals were comparable to those in control group of animals indicating that both SSP and DCP did not exert any liver toxicity. Fecal excretion of P in the DCP (119.46±4.42) treated animals (cows and buffaloes) was significantly higher than in the control (77.00±1.88) and SSP (108.71±5.36) treated groups. Non-significant (P>0.05) differences in RBC, WBC, PCV and Hb values were recorded between treatments (control, SSP, DCP). Pregnancy rate in control, DCP and SSP treated groups, respectively was 42, 60, and 74% over the duration of the trial. Mean number of services per conception in control, DCP and SSP treated buffaloes was 2.1, 1.96, and 1.92, respectively. The corresponding mean number of services per conception for cows was 2.3, 2.1, and 2.1, respectively. Phase II of the study dealt with evaluation of comparative therapeutic efficacy of SSP and DCP in the treatment of such P associated disorders as parturient hemoglobinuria, osteomalacia-like disease, pica, anestrus and repeat breeding. DCP or SSP were used as adjunct therapeutic agents in the treatment of these P associated clinical disorders. The responses in terms of clearance of clinical signs and serum mineral profiles with SSP for these five diseases were broadly comparable to the responses obtained by treatment with DCP. In conclusion, integration of the findings of phase I and phase II of the present study would tempt one to tentatively conclude that super juice prepared from SSP can be used as a cheaper alternative to DCP in dairy production as well as to treat important P associated disorders of cows and buffaloes.

سرِ شام: ایک مختصرتاثر

 عارفہ ثمین اختر نے دور طالب علمی میں تحقیق و تنقید اور شعر گوئی سے بیک وقت اپنا شغف ظاہر کیا تھا؛ لیکن عمدہ دسترس کے باوصف اول الذکر سے ان کا ناتا نصابی مدار تک محدود رہا جبکہ ثانی الذکر سے وابستگی سرمدی ثابت ہوئی؛ یوں تخلیق سے منسوب ثروت ایک بار پھر اپنی فوقیت کا اثبات کرانے میں با مراد ٹھیری۔ یہ درست ہے کہ انھیں عہد طفولیت ہی سے ادبی علمی فضا میسر آئی مگر اس معاونت کا دایرہ اثر تحدید کی تقدیر اپنے ہمراہ لاتا ہے۔ فرد اگر اپنی ذات میں اساسی تخلیقی جوہر نہیں رکھتا تو محض ماحول قلب ماہیت کا اعجاز نہیں دکھا سکتا۔

 عارفہ کی مذکورہ وہبی استعداد کا اعتراف ان کی غیر موجودگی میں اکثر سننے میں آتا رہا اور انھیں سننے کے بلا واسطہ مواقع بھی ملے۔ اس کے بعد ایک ایسا طویل وقفہ آیا کہ سچی بات ہے وہ رفت گزشت ہو گئیں کیونکہ وہی لکھنے والے قاری کے حلقہ ء نظر میں رہتے ہیں جو اس کے آئینہ ء ابصار تلک رسائی کا اہتمام بلکہ تردد کرنے میں کامیاب رہتے ہیں۔ اس دوران میں ادبی جراید یا سوشل میڈیا کے توسط عارفہ کے سخن قرطاس یا اسکرین پر نہیں ابھرے۔ اب کوئی تین دہائیوں کی گزران کے بعد یکایک ان کا شعری مجموعہ: ”سر شام“ کے عنوان سے سامنے آیا ہے تو خوشگوار حیرت نے اپنے حصار میں لے لیا ہے! مسرت اس لیے ہوئی کہ عارفہ نے اپنے وجود کی مناسبت سے عرفان آگہی کی آن کو حرز جان بنائے رکھا اور اس انمول خوبی کی اضاعت کا سانحہ نہیں ہونے دیا وگرنہ کڈھب مسائل حیات ان گنت دلنشیں تخلیق کاروں کو نگل گئے!

Reading in a report: the French National Gendarmerie, on the reasons for the cargo train coup between the cities of Ain Sefra and Bashar in 1957

It is no coincidence that the researcher in history, especially the history of the Algerian revolution, finds a missing link in the history of the Algerian revolution, which we call the history of what history has neglected. Intentionally, or unintentionally, the archives of Algeria in France, Pax- Provence, or others, or even with some Algerian families, who still hide their archives from researchers? a question that the Algerian researcher will answer to show the truth with documents. Similar to this document, which deals with a topic, in which scientific material was scarce, which is related to the revolution’s strategy to abort and eliminate French projects, the strategy of the National Liberation Army to adapt to the situation consisted in sabotaging French transportation routes, especially railways, in order to destroy France’s economy as well as When she wanted to isolate the people from their revolution, by building barbed wire at the level of the East and West.

Impact of Financial and Macroeconomic Measures on Economic Development

SAARC countries are, in general, under developing economies having less remarkable growth rate. This study focuses on to find out the impact of financial and fiscal variables on economic development of 5 SAARC countries, namely; Pakistan, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Remaining 3 countries of the region are omitted due to the absence of stock markets in these countries, stock markets being an important part of the study. Data on Financial and macroeconomic measures have been collected for the period of 20 years from 1994 to 2013. Financial measures include Money and quasi money (M2), Trend in Foreign Exchange reserves (TFER), Private Sector Credit by financial institutions (PSC) and Value of Stock Traded (VST) and macroeconomic measures include Trade balance (TB), Consumer price Inflation rate (IR), Exchange rate (ER), Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Gross fixed capital formation (GFC) as independent variables and Growth in Per Capita Income (GPCI) as dependent variable. Pooled OLS regression is used for panel analysis and as data had heteroskadasticity issue so VCE (robust) is used for minimizing the impact of standard errors. The results of the study support the positive impact of financial and macroeconomic measures on economic development of SAARC countries.
