Use Of The Laboratory In Science Teaching, F. G. Brooks

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The most distinctive contribution that the sciences have made to educational practice is the laboratory method of instruction. We can safely attribute much of the progress made in the various scientific fields and a large share of credit for the fine tradition of scholarship that has pervaded the sciences during the past century to this method of teaching.

A Provisionary List Of The Cruciferae Of Henry, Jefferson And Van Buren Counties, Iowa, Charles Gilly

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Since the afternoon of April 28, 1933, which I spent in collecting plants along the banks of Copperas Creek in Van Buren County, Malcolm McDonald and myself -working under the direction of Professor Charles Carter - have been doing the foundation work preparatory to the publication of a Flora of Southeastern Iowa. In the course of this work we have built up a herbarium, of more than three thousand specimens, which is now preserved in the Biology Department of Parsons College. In addition to this field collecting and identification, we have consulted already published lists and examined specimens from other …

The Plantersville Meteorite, Grimes County, Texas, John T. Lonsdale

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The Plantersville meteorite fell on the afternoon of September 4, 1930, at a point three and one-half miles southwest of Plantersville, Grimes County, Texas. The locality of the fall is forested but several men were working nearby and recovered the specimen within a few minutes of its fall. The phenomena of fall included rumbling explosions and a noise like an airplane in flight. This find is a light-gray friable aerolite, weighing 2084.9 grams, with a dense black crust showing oriented thread lines. The shape is sub-conoid faceted with a well-developed brutseit. The dimensions are 5¾” X 4" X 3¾” measured …

Progress In The Regeneration Of The Prairie At The Iowa Lakeside Laboratory, W. A. Anderson

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The prairie tract owned by the Iowa Lakeside Laboratory lies northwest of Miller's Bay, West Okoboji Lake, in Section 23, T. 99 N., R. XXXVII W., Dickson County, Iowa. It covers approximately sixty acres of irregular surface, which drains toward the southeast into the bay. There are several more or less prominent morainic knobs in the tract. Three springy places support hanging bogs, each with its little stream draining into the lake; another tiny bog has no outlet. A shallow pond on the extreme western edge of the tract has been drained by highway ditches and is practically extinct. The …
