Hort 400 Autotutorials
http://www.cals.cornell.edu/dept/flori/hort400/index4.html
Here among some twelve scripted slide shows of techniques in
commercial crop plant production, are two virtual field trips to
horticultural businesses concerned with Raspberries and Apple
Grafting, and presentations of Chimeras and CEA Lettuce Production as
specialized research topics. General techniques of grafting, budding,
propagation by cuttings, and seed propagation are covered by sequences
of images designed to provide experience to the student beyond the
limitations and restrictions of a lab session. A really neat way to
bring the real world into the classroom, each tutorial starts with a
page of thumbnails, from which to proceed through a presentation of
each subject which indeed rivals the pictures in a textbook! Site by

Kansas Wildflowers
http://www.lib.ksu.edu/wildflower/
It would be great if all the United States of America each had at
least one wildflower site like "Kansas Wildflowers" and all would link
to each other. The method of indexing is most accommodating, with
links to close up photographs and data organized by Common Name,
Scientific Name, and Color, with a separate link for Native Grasses.
Two new scintillating features on the site include the "Glossary" and
"Nomenclature Authorites," a list of abbreviated author names, having
short biographical entries for each. Not just another roadside
wildflower guide, here flower children and professors alike can
download their favorites for personal use and study at this site by

Coordinator at Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS.(****)LF
