Future educational allotments
to be doled to states monthly
The national defense program

lates to vocational education was
discussed by Sidney Owen, state

tors at Union last weekend.

must be regarded as tentative
since the bill providing funds for
the program has not yet passed
congress, Owen stated that unlike
the program of the current year
funds in the future will not be al
lowed in lump annual sums but
will be doled out to the various
states by the month.

lars for the nation including 17?
million for college engineering

Ag representatives wind up
consolidation meeting in Union
youth program in vocational agri
culture training shops.
"The commonly accepted phil
osophy of education to plan
courses to serve the needs of indi
viduals is totally abandoned in this
program," declared Owen. "The
controlling purpose is to serve the
needs of the military forces of the
United States."
Prof. A. W. Peterson of the
rural economics department at the
university explained the method
now being used experimentally by
his department to classify land on
the basis of how intensively it
should be used relative to the land
surrounding it.
"That land which will support
the greatest intensity of us will re
turn to all the factors of produc
tion applied upon it a higher re
turn per acre than the surrounding
land which will not support as in
tensive a use," declared Prof.
Peterson. "When land becomes so
poor that it will not support a rea
sonable standard of living ever a
period of years under its present
type of plow farming, it may be
necessary to change the type of
farming on that land to a much
more extensive use thari is at pres
ent being practiced. In Nebraska
the most extensive ues that can
be made of land is for grass."
Don Critchfield, representative
of the Lead Industries association
of Ntew York City and the re
gional Lumber Manufacturers as
sociation, presented an illustarted
talk on "Painting on the Farm"
before a group Thursday after
noon. Prof H. E. Bradford, chair
man of the vocational education
department at the university, pre
sented ten year club certificates
to Homer A. Farrar of Barneston
and Harvey Seng of Gothenburg
for their ten years of vocational
agriculture teaching.
Department of agriculture rep
resentatives and agricultural
leaders from six states wound up
a week of meetings at the Union
where they have been consolidat
ing various state reports devel
oped by land use planning com
mittee. A unified program of agricul
ture to fit in with national de
fense is the aim of the material
which will be sent to Washing
ton, D. S. Their it will be used
by the agricultural program
board along with seven other re
gional reports as a basis for work
along with seven other regional
reports as a basis for working
out national agricultural policies.

Fossils .
(Continued from Page L)
most of the excavation sites are
located, the land is very dry and
water has to be carried in to the
camps from the nearest ranches.
The temperature in the badlands
occasionally soars to 120 degrees
and few shade trees are offered
except along the rivers. Sometimes
a friendly rancher will offer the
field parties some ice and make
possible a cooling bucket of
"home-made" ice cream.
Members of the field parties
work in the fossil quarries with
picks and shovels to break up the
ground while a team of horses
or mules pulls a scraper to re
move the overburden of sand or
clay. Sometimes the overburden
is rotk and must be blasted away.
When tractors are available
which is seldom in this ranching
country they are used in place of
horses. In such cases a farmer
will rent out both himself and the
machine to the museum ciew,
