Review Of The Prairie Schoolhouse By John Martin Campbell, Sally Salisbury Stoddard
Review Of The Prairie Schoolhouse By John Martin Campbell, Sally Salisbury Stoddard
Great Plains Quarterly (through 2013)
John Martin Campbell, in this fine book consisting of sixty black and white, well conceived photographic plates and explicative text, has created an evocative picture of the prairie schoolhouses, the age from which they sprang, their environment, and the people for whom these formulaic structures fulfilled many functions. Older folks who grew up in the largely poor, rural areas of the vast American prairies will easily identify with Tony Hillerman's anecdote in the foreword, and they will surely experience a deep nostalgia and a profound sadness for the decay of the schoolhouse concept as well as the decay of the …

The Existing Space In Nebraska Multistory Square Farm Houses, Jerre Lewis Withrow, Florence Mckinney
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins
The present study was made by the University of Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station to determine the extent of similarity in the plans of one particular style of house, the square house of more than one story. Patterns of remodeling will be developed if the similarity of existing houses justifies such a project. The two story square house was chosen for study because it is one of the predominant old style houses still in existence throughout the North Central Region.

Personality Development In Farm, Small-Town, And City Children, Leland H. Stott
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins
One purpose of the present research project was to contribute further toward an adequate knowledge of the relative merits of urban and rural environments. In this bulletin the three general home settings already mentioned, namely the farm in the open country, the small town (600 to 1,300 in population), and the city, are compared as to their "favorableness" in regard to the personality development of the children who grow up in them. The data for the comparisons are the average scores made by representative samples of young people from each environment on a set of tests and scales designed to …
The Relation Of Certain Factors In Farm Family Life To Personality Development In Adolescents, Leland H. Stott
The Relation Of Certain Factors In Farm Family Life To Personality Development In Adolescents, Leland H. Stott
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins
Although "the family" has been much written about, and studied from many points of view in the past, relatively little attention has been given by investigators to the problem of determining the factors which make for successful family life. The need for information of this sort is obvious, and in recent years a few studies have been made from this point of view. The present study was undertaken for the purpose of gathering further information about "normal" families and some of the home-environmental factors which are thought to contribute to, or hinder, the achievement of successful family life.

A Study Of Farm Families And Their Standards Of Living In Selected Districts Of Nebraska 1931-1933, Margaret Fedde, Ruth Lindquist
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins
This study of farm families in selected districts of Nebraska was undertaken in order to obtain information regarding the total money value of family living and the proportion of the total used for each of the principal groups of goods. A further purpose was to measure the adequacy of the living provided. The study was begun in January, 1931, and continued through the year 1933. The districts selected included Cass and Fillmore counties throughout the three-year period, and to these Buffalo county was added at the beginning of 1932.
