Boys study crop experiments and education methods
The class will plant daffodils from bulbs after the mums bloom then grow plants from seed to test factors affecting them. The project also measures how presentation methods impact learning with materials provided by Crawbaush and Hersey and most work by the boys. Shipping fever costs beef producers about $25 million annually with death losses up to 10 percent in some years.
