Own Home Culture: The Bullock Report (1975) was the first to acknowledge that to lose one's first language is to lose one's culture and identity: 'No child should be expected to cast off the language and culture of the home as she crosses the school threshold, and the curriculum should reflect that part of his life' (Bullock 1975, p. 286). The Committee recommended changes in objectives, curricula and methodology in language education.
There are two systems of orchard culture: one in which the land remains permanently in sod, termed sod culture ; the other in which the land, or part of it, is tilled, known home culture as cultivation. Both systems possess certain advantages and admit of variations.
Sod culture, which reduces soil erosion and the runoff of surface water, is especially useful on hilly or rolling topography. On the other hand, sod culture increases competition for nutrients and water between tree and sod, thus necessitating the addition of a nitrogen-carrying fertilizer.
Nearly every meal worm culture, at some time or other, becomes infested with common small brown home culture beetle called a weevil. Eggs of this pest are introduced into the culture with the bran. Unless watched, weevils make heavy inroads upon bran supply in breeding box.
When weevils first begin to develop, adults appear on inside of box top. Crush them at once with fingers or some flat tool; continue to do so daily. If weevils gain control, entire culture must be thrown home culture out, box aired well for several days, and new culture established. |
