Exp Mental Farm: Calendar publishers will buy idyllic farm scenes; dairy cows grazing, with fine farm buildings in background; good shots of beef cattle, plowing, harvesting, people with poultry, children doing chores or engaged in other farm activities, girls with farm animals, orchards in bloom. In fact, almost any aspect of farm life, if photographed for maximum pictorial quality, could be used by a calendar firm.
Mass investigations on the basis of age norms, however, have indicated only a slight relation between the exp mental farm and physical status of children. A spurt in exp mental farm growth does not appear to parallel the preadolescent spurt in physical growth. The pattern of exp mental farm development is similar in boys and girls, despite the difference in their rates of physical maturing.
A ranch is larger, and its maj.,: product is animal, produced on unplowed land called range. Usually, range remains unplowed because it is not suited to cultivation. Precipitation may be too low to support farm crops, the terrain may be mountainous, or the soil may be too poor or too shallow to farm. It should not be concluded, however, that farms are not important in livestock production. Actually, in the United States they produce more livestock than range-do. Farm feed may be hay and grain that is harvested and fed to penned livestock, or pasture forage which the animals harvest themselves by grazing. |
