Contractors Hit.
NdvyPractices

JACKSONVILLE. Fla, Mar
81 tP.-Small businessmen told
a House committee today that
Navy contracting practices are
unfair to them, particularly
change ordering" slownesS in
paying and delays in settling
differences.
Richard F. Cottrell. president
of the defunct Georgia Ship
building Corp. testified that
Navy delays in coming to terms
on payments had caused at least
half a dozen small shipyards tc
go bankrupt. He said small
shipyardS do not have enough
capital to continue operation il
payments are held up.
Wesley F. Leake, owner Of
Leake'S Boatyard in Jacksonville
complained that he found II
impossible to examine bids after
they are opened in public ses-
sion. He said he had been told
the law prohibited the public
from seeing the bids.
Representative Multer. Demo-
crat of New York, chairman of
the House Small Business Sub
committee No. 2. said he had
not heard of such a law.
Representative Bennett, Dem
ocrat of Florida, who sat in on
the hearing, although not a
member CT the committee. re-
marked that practice of keep
ing opened bids secret from COM
lpetitive bidders could lead to
abuse when combined with the
ichange order procedure.
These bids should be opened
to inspection" he said There
is not enough public check or
bid openings"
Witnesses said that after a
low bidder is selected. he may
negotiate for a contract change
order which would alter the
original job specifications and
result in a higher cost to the
Navy than the original bid.
Mr.. Multer had commented
earlier that the Nays relations
with small business has a bright
side. He praised Jacksonville
Naval Air Station for giving SC
much of its business to small
firms.

OVER THE YEARS there has been con-
tinuing debate among weather authorities
as to whether weather conditions come in
hit-or-miSs fashion, or in more-or-less reg
ular cycles While it has been conceded that
the period of time in which reliable weather
records have been kept is too short for any
very definite conclusions on the subject, the
cycle theory has had number of vigorous
champions.
Some weather observers have insisted
that available records give evidence of both
long-term and short-term cycles. Others
have discounted the conclusions of the cycle
theorists and have contended that a careful
study fails to reveal any regular trend or
cycle.
Dr. R. H. Shaw, weather specialist at
Iowa State College, recently completed
rather exhaustive study of available weather
records. His conclusion is that come rain,
hail or drouth-Weather doesn't run in
cycles.
In his careful analysis of weather stats
tics, DR.. Shaw was unable to find any salts
factory evidence that there is any such thing
as a weather cycle. He could not even find
any evidence to support the rather general
belief that dry or wet years tend to come
two or three years in row. He found that
years of above normal and below normal
rainfall tend to recur like "heads" and
tails when you flip coin.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-09-15
Does Weather Come In Cycles?

Iowa records kept over period of 83
years show that about half of the years that
were below normal in rainfall were followed
by another dry year, and about half were
followed by wetter than normal year. The
effect of temperature, the time of year when
rain falls, and the moisture reserves in the
soil have an important affect on crop pro-
duction, in addition to the amount of snow
and rain received. About 70 per cent of
normal rainfall disappears through evapora-
ton
Dr. Shaw observes that even though
moisture tends to come in a random year.
to-year pattern, extreme shortages of soil
moisture may be carried over from one year
to another, especially in areas of light rain
fall. In such areas, of course, even normal
rainfall may result in a comparatively I'M
favorable production season if sub-Soil moiS-
ture is unusually deficient.
Montana weather statistics, too, fail to
reveal any particular cycle, or pattern, or
groupings of wet and dry years. There have
been successive relatively wet years and
some groupings of dry years but there have
been numerous instances where wet year
was followed by dry year, and dry year
by wet year Under our Montana weather
conditions, the timeliness of the rainfall
has been of more importance than the total
amount, in its effect on crop production

ing for meat quality. There is also need for
a lot of basic information on the relation
ship between cattle nutrition and beef quail
ity. 1t seems likely that the type of feed as
well as the animals requirements for feed
at various stages of growth may be impor-
tant factors in the production of quality
meat. There is already some indication that
calves fed to make slow growth make better
beef because the fat is more evenly dis
tributed through the muscles.
More information is also wanted on the
energy requirements and energy yields of
different kinds of feed This is important if
producers are to make the best use of pas
ture, hay and silage. A re-evalution of the
role of calorie-protein rations as they affect
carcass composition and meat quality is re-
CURED
Researchers are now beginning to ex-
plore this whole subject and the next few
years should develop basic facts that will
be of great value to livestock producers.

Winter wheat that has been fully hard
ened by cold weather can withstand tenn
peratureS considerably below zero and if
covered by a protective blanket of snow
possibly as low as 40 degrees below, says
j. L. Baldwin, climatologist of U S. Weather
Bureau. He points out that the hardening
of wheat to withstand winter weather is
caused by more or less gradual lowering
of the temperature to readings below freez-
ing growth stops around 40 degrees. This
apparently results in decrease of the water
content of the plant and an increase in the
sugar content, which lowers the freezing
point. Damage usually occurs when severe
freezes catch the crop before it has become
'winterized," particularly following a warm
spell that had stimulated growth Other
causes of winter kill are heaving, smother
ing and excessive blowing.
