	Citation Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Dairy barn and herd Year: 1947 Dairy research has a long history at OSU; the university has had a fully functional dairy for more than 100 years. Milk from the herd has been used for dairy products research and to produce ice cream and cheese for sale. The barns in the photo were destroyed by fire in 1968, but were soon rebuilt. Current research centers on ruminant nutrition, reproduction, animal health and behavior, herd management, and crop/grass production. Artisanal cheese production is a research focus in food science and technology.

	Citation Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: PH036_1346 Lee Moorhouse photographs Year: 1907 The left side of the image is a large open plain that is covered by sand and sagebrush, with no visible trees or other vegetation. The right side of the image has a farmhouse and a barn. The ground around and beyond the farmhouse is darker in color from the soil content and access to water. In the foreground is a small wooden dam. The sides of the dam are up against a low-tiered wall of sand and rock, built into the embankment. Beyond the embankment, the pathway of the canal from the dam is visible as a dividing line between the the sagebrush area and the farmland area. The canal is identified as the Hinkle irrigation canal, located near Pendleton, Oregon. The house and barn are both constructed of wood. The barn is larger and in front of the house. Only the chimney and part of the roof and one side of the house are visible. There is a fence enclosing the buildings and part of the canal. There is a small white tent or cloth cover to the far right of the buildings. There are some other small structures and farm-related objects near the barn, but not clearly seen.

	Citation Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Types of campaign dress worn by soldiers in the Continental Army, 1776-1779 In 1775, the Continental Congress had decided that the Troop should be uniformed in brown, the men paying for their own uniforms by stoppages in pay after the prevailing custom in the British service. The uniform at the extreme left is that of one of the Pennsylvania regiments which appeared in brown with buff or white facings. All who could procure them wore buckskin breeches. Because it was in demand and obtainable on every farm, brown was the prevalent hue of cloth manufactured in this country and was extensively used for military coats in the Colonies and during the Revolution. While Congress decided upon the color, it was not able to supply the cloth in sufficient quantity to uniform the army. Some of the states undertook the supplying of uniforms as far as possible for their own soldiers. The government of Connecticut had on hand a quantity of scarlet coats and sent those to the men in the field until the supply was exhausted. Occassionally a lot of enemies' uniforms fell into the hands of the Continental patriots. If there was time to do it, these were dyed brown or blue, but they were sometimes worn without change which led to bad mistakes of friends and foes on the battlefield. The uniform of the third solider from the left was that of the Second South Carolina regiment in which Frances Marion was a Captain. It was at this uniform that General Gates was said to have laughed. It consisted of a close round bodied jacket of coarse texture, a leather cap with a silver cresecent in front, and inscribed with the words, "Liberty or Death." When in New York in 1776, Washington issued a general order for improving the uniforms and clothing of the Army, he directed the use of the hunter's dress which he had used for the Virginia Militia years before and which the New England Rangers had used in the French and Indian War, for those troops which had not already been provided for. The two soldiers at the right, one in white, and the other in green wear this hunting dress. The white hunter's outfit was also the dress of the first troops raised by the authority of the Continental Congress, the famous riflemen from Virginia, Maryland and Western Pennsylvania. It consisted of white shirts and trousers reaching to the ankles and fitted gaiter fashion about the leg below the knee and extending over the moccasins. Round the waist was a leather belt in which was stuck a hunting knife. Over the shoulder was another belt from which hung sometimes a cartridge box, but generally a powder horn. The trimmings of the shirts and trousers generally consisted of ravellings of the linen or woolen material of which the garments were made. This dress was encouraged, first because it was cheaper. It was also more convenient in warm weather. There was, however, another and strategic reason for Washington's recommending this hunter dress. This was to carry terror to the enemy who believed every person so dressed to be a complete marksman. The deadly precision of the rifle in the hands of an old hunter inspired constant fear in the hearts of the well drilled British Regulars. This reputation established by these Colonial hunters for deadly accuracy has remained the purpose of the United States Army to maintain. The second soldier from the left wears a uniform of Washington's bodyguard which was composed of picked infantry. They wore blue coats with buff facings, like their Chief, who appears in the following slide, also leather breeches and scarlet waistcoats as you see here.
