This study aims to analyze cohesion and coherence in forming the wholeness of the discourse contained in the Radar Sulawesi Barat daily. This research was qualitative. The data was collected using listening and note-taking techniques with several stages: reading, marking, and classifying. The data obtained in this study were written as elements that made up the wholeness of the discourse. The method and technique of data analysis used was the intralingual equivalent method with the comparison technique of equating the main points. Based on the study's results, cohesion and coherence shape the wholeness of discourse in the Radar Sulawesi Barat daily. Discourse cohesion found in this study was a marker of grammatical and lexical cohesion. Grammatical cohesion markers include (1) references, (2) substitutions, and (3) conjunctions. Lexical cohesion markers are repetition; the repetition obtained consists of (1) complete repetition, (2) repetition with changes in form, (3) repetition with changes, (4) repetition with synonym changes, and (5) repetition with hyponyms. In addition to repetition, a marker of lexical cohesion was also found, namely collocation. Furthermore, the element that forms the wholeness of discourse was coherence.

This study aims to analyze the form of morphological errors in student explanatory text based on gender. This research was a multi-case study with a qualitative approach. This study's type of data was written from the explanatory essays of 78 students from three junior high schools in Palu. Data was collected using the listening method obtained from collecting student assignments using reading and note-taking techniques. Data analysis in this study used four methods, namely 1) data collection, 2) data reduction, 3) data presentation, and 4) conclusion drawing. Presentation of the results of data analysis using informal methods. Based on the study's results, morphological errors were found in the explanatory essays of Grade VIII students. The errors referred to 1) Affixation Errors (13 errors), 2) Reduplication Errors (18 errors), and 3) Compound Errors (6 errors). Both genders made similar mistakes regarding abbreviating morphs and compounding but differ regarding affixation and reduplication. Female students made more affixation errors, specifically omission errors. Meanwhile, male students made more reduplication errors. Morphological errors in students' explanatory essays can serve as a barometer for improving comprehension of good Indonesian. Morphological errors in students' explanatory essays can be a benchmark for increasing understanding of good Indonesian rules.

Peningkatan kecernaan pakan dapat dilakukan dengan penggunaan feed additive dalam pakan ataupun air minum. Feed additive merupakan pakan tambahan yang mengandung komponen bioaktif, dapat berasal dari tanaman yang disebut fitobiotik. Minyak atsiri merupakan salah satu sumber fitobiotik yang dapat diekstrak dari tanaman cengkeh. Tujuan penelitian untuk menentukan daya cerna protein dan lemak dari penggunaan minyak atsiri daun cengkeh dalam pakan ayam ras jantan. Penelitian menggunakan 15 ekor ayam ras jantan umur 12 minggu yang dipelihara selama 7 hari. Perlakuan didesain dengan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 5 perlakuan  dan 3 ulangan. Perlakuan yaitu P1 ( Pakan basal), P2 (Pakan basal + antibiotik 0,005%/kg pakan), P3 (Pakan basal + minyak atsiri daun cengkeh 0,63%/kg pakan), P4 (Pakan basal + minyak atsiri daun cengkeh 1,26%/kg pakan), P5 (Pakan basal + minyak atsiri daun cengkeh 1,89%/kg pakan). Variabel yaitu daya cerna protein dan lemak pakan. Data dianalisis dengan program SPSS versi 19 sesuai desain yang digunakan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan memberikan pengaruh sangat nyata (p<0,01) terhadap daya cerna protein dan lemak. Hasil terbaik diperoleh pada perlakuan P3 dengan penggunaan 0,63% minyak atsiri daun cengkeh dalam pakan. Disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan minyak atsiri daun cengkeh 0,64% dalam pakan ayam ras petelur jantan dapat meningkatkan kecernaan protein 1,19% (dari 96,00% (antibiotik komersial) menjadi  97,14% (minyak atsiri daun cengkeh) dan lemak 6,77% (dari  84,52% (antibiotik komersial) menjadi 90,24% (minyak atsiri daun cengkeh). Penggunaan minyak atsiri dapat menggantikan penggunaan antibiotik dalam pakan ayam ras  jantan.
