Organisms Purchased
For Research Oil Work
A large collection of models of
forammifera, minute organisms of
great value in oil work, have been
purchased by the University of Ne
braska, and are being used by Dr.
Eula D. McEwan, of the department
of geology, in conducting a class in
the application of paleontology to
problems of petroleum. During the
last few veara the study of these
orraniimis has become of considera
ble importance, because of their use
in oil work, and there is a demand
for workers trained in this field of
study , Owing to its special instruc
tional facilities, the University has
an enviable reputation for oil investi-
Ration and research work. Many j
prominent positions both in this and '
foreign countries are held by Ne
braska graduates. Only one other 1
University in the United States is
prepared to offer such work as Is
covered in these new courses. j

cago. It contains photographs of

tion concerning qualities and uses,
and samples of all kinds of textiles.

gives a summary of the weather for
the month of the entire state in de
tail, and performs an individual ser
vice. This system has been in operation
for forty years and the record of
the climate has been kept during that
time. The volunteers become inter
ested and often continue the work
during their lifetime.
The part of the work which at
tracts most public attention is the
weather forecasting, but this is by no
means most important. It depends
the receipt of telegraphic reports
from all over the United States. The
bureau draws a weather map, which
shows the movement of the storm
areas and other weather conditions.
Predictions for the coming night
and day are made here every morn
ing except Sunday and a few im
nortant holidavs. This is printed in
the afternoon papers, and also small
reproductions of the weather map,
along with other information. Cards
with these facts are printed in the
office and mailed all over, the state,
and since the new radio station has
been established reports will be given
over the radio. Mr. Blair himself
will broadcast the weather cnoditions
and the forecast every morning at
nine-thirty.
One division of their wor is car
ried on at the Agricultrual campus.
This is the measuring of solar radi
ation, or the actual amount of ener
gy received from the sua each day.
There is a man with special instru
ments to tend to this department.
