If your soil is too acidic and you cannot afford to fertilize your alfalfa a lot, then do not plant alfalfa. Make sure that you prepare a good seed bag. If a seedbag is not smooth and free of large clods, then it is not good enough. A drill must be used to plant the alfalfa. Do not use a till.

Even things that had nothing to do with debates such as good ways to put a debate together, how to persuade the audience and how to do an excellent debate. Well I researched all my material for my debate, it helped me get my arguments for our own side as well as it also gave me a little bit of intelligence on the points that they could run over. From the debate about subsidizing farms in Canada I learned that subsidies are harmful for the economy. An example of this is instead of farmers being able to pick what crops they want to plant each year, they are forced to grow a specific crop requested as part of a subsidy. As a student in Agribusiness I have learned so many skills that will help me succeed in my career.

Allegorical Comparison: Napoleon and Joseph Stalin In the novel, Animal Farm by George Orwell, there are many connections that can be made between the animals and the people that were involved with the Russian Revolution. One main connection that can be made is between Napoleon, the dictating pig, and Joseph Stalin. To begin, Napoleon started off the book as a partner to another pig, Snowball. On page 11, the text states, “Pre-eminent among the pigs were two young boars named Snowball and Napoleon, whom Mr. Jones was breeding up for sale.” (Orwell 11) They were the two most important pigs in the farm, but one was not considered greater than the other. Similarly, Joseph Stalin began his road to leadership as a partner to Leon Trotsky.

Yet, for some reason this is something people are still turning a blind eye too. It is not like we kill these animals for health reasons or survival we do it mainly because it tastes good. As stated by Gary Yourofsky: “The problem is that humans have victimized animals to such a degree, that they aren’t even considered victims. They aren’t even considered at all. They’re nothing.

They also used it to experiment with new crops and for new methods of cultivation. Since the Incas lived in a high-altitude place, they had limited vegetables. They ate food like potatoes and other grains. The Incas gradually strengthened their kingdom by the military conquest of neighboring countries. They had a hard time fighting the Chancas, which was a powerful union which was made up with a number of groups to stop the Incas.

First thing you know, we'd all be eating stewed chickweed and acorns. There's always been a lottery.” As you can see, this is why his name symbolizes his character of warning people about the past. He says these sayings multiple times throughout the book. Mr. Graves is another symbol displayed though the name. Mr.Graves helps conduct the lottery and in reality, helps send people to their graves.

The first part of this method is developing a hypothesis, sometimes by being imaginative or creative. An example of being creative was when Kekulé saw a hexagon in his fireplace and it inspired him to suggest as a hypothesis that benzene’s structure Student - Summer 2015 Bio 100 - P2D1. Page 1 of 2 resembled a hexagon. Hypotheses like this guide the scientist to observe and experiment in order to validate that fragment of invented theoretical world. Similarly, it was creativity that allowed Mendel to suggest the existence of hereditary traits in pea plants.

No processed, refined, or fortified food-like substances, especially ones that make special health claims, and nothing with high-fructose corn syrup. Eat only whole food such as fruits and vegetables that have been grown organically or animals that have been raised on an organic diet and are free to roam about. Whole foods can be found on the periphery of the grocery store; however, beware of food additives and hormones in meats and dairy products. In fact, he recommends avoiding the grocery store altogether and purchasing food from farmers markets and or small, locally owned farms, or to grow your own vegetables. Of course whole food is harder to find and a lot more expensive.

Similarly, Shakespeare emphasizes nature’s laws when he writes, “seeking the food he eats and pleased with what he gets…here he shall see no enemy but winter and rough weather” (II.v.36-43). The only aspect in nature which can hurt man comes from nature itself, in the weather, such as cold winds and stormy weather. Man in the forest looks out for himself and cannot blame others for his or hers failures or faults. The ever extending forest in the setting of the play creates a lack of mankind, mankind does not control the forest unlike in the court where devious actions and corruption spurs from the unfairness mankind possesses. Since nature allows man to take care of himself, one has no reason for corruption and betrayal of his brethren.
