hc-a.d of . . . ir f .-bes an impassibility . . . and that drip pan under the ice box always
seemed to be overflowing. Today, a silent, white-enameled ice man stands in millions
of kitchens.
But to mass produce millions of refrigerators, manufacturers must be
able to sell them by the millions. Only by advertising can a manufacturer
talk to millions of people at one time.
ADVERTISING TELLS the story of new refrigerators .... and helps ell them. The
more it sells, the more must be made keeping the production lines and the jobs
going. The result: newer, better appliances at prices more people can afford to pay.
Advertising helped make the difference in refrigerators, and in our American way
of life.

OSC Experts Study
Weather Controls
In Central Oregon
Corvallis Science is still
hopeful that it can put reality
into man's long-nurtured dream
to do something about the weath
er. But Oregon State college me
teorologists say much research is
needed before such efforts as
cloud seeding will give con
trolled weather changes.
The OSC researchers have just
completed a four-year study of
commercial cloud seeding in Ore
gon's dryland wheat area of
Sherman, Gilliam, and Morrow
counties. Their conclusion: no
definite increases in rainfall due
to seeding.
Records Studied
The study was made by Rus
sell Lincoln, Fred Decker, and
John Day in the 2,642,000 acre
Tri-county region where rain
makers have been seeding
clouds with silver iodide since
1950. The team of researchers
armed themselves with 20-year
weather records for the area
prior to 1950 before starting
their intensive four-year-observation.
Average rainfall from 1930 to
1950 had been 10.5 inches during
the 10 months, September
through June, when cloud seed
ing is practiced in the Tri-county
area. Yearly variations were
wide, however, during the 10
month periods: 5.8 inches in 1938
compared to 16.6 inches in 1947.
Reports from regional weath
er stations, along with actual
rainfall measurements in nearby
unseeded areas, gave a com
puted average natural rainfall of
slightly under 11 inches for the
four test years.
The scientists measured 11
items used to compute natural
rainfall, allowed statistical mar
gin of error, and figured 12.60
inches of rain must fall before
it could be credted to anything
but chance. Actually, only 11.58
inches fell during the seeding
season one inch under the total
needed to credit it to anything
but nature.
It is quite probable, meteorol
ogists say, that weather condi
tions are rare when man can
make clouds release or withhold
hail. But they believe the Tri
county study has provided a good
tool for measuring present cloud
seeding methods.

Kreisman Article
Set for Publication
Ashland Dr. Arthur Kreis
man, professor of English and
chairman of the division of hu
manites at Southern Oregon col
lege has been notified that his
article, "Some Thoughts on Tea
ching Method," will be publish
ed by the graduate school of Ore
gon State college in their quar
terly magazine, Improving Col
lege and University Teaching for
the month of August.
Emphasis has been placed by
Dr. Kreisman on the broad as
pects of "method" as distinguish
ed from devices, procedures, and
other concrete manifestations of
the teaching process. He discus
ses this distinction from the view
point that only a person who
thoroughly understands how a
particular subjnect is learned
can teach it with any great suc
cess. This means that the teach
er must be a master of the sub
ject in the deepest sense.
