The use of grass cover crops is a recommended practice in
nonirrigated vineyards in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Two
studies were initiated to investigate the competitive and
noncompetitive effects of grass cover crops on the growth and

The purpose of this study was to test the use of the published simulation, Jeffrey's Department Store (Koeninger and Hephner, 1978), in high school Distributive Education classrooms. The simulation was compared to "traditional" methods of instruction, testing for achievement (knowledge gained) and attitude (feelings about the class after instruction). Control...
Internally-pH-controlled, phosphate containing and non-phosphate
containing Italian bulk starter media were compared to
reconstituted nonfat dry milk and commercial bulk starter media
for their ability to support the growth and activities of
commercially frozen thermophilic lactic acid cultures. Cultures
grown in internally-pH-controlled media demonstrated superior
acid-production capability. The cheese made...
