  • The Scioto Marshes of Ohio : a Study in the Geography of Onion Culture
    THE SCIOTO MARSHES OP OHIO: A STUDY IN THE GEOGRAPHY OF ONION CULTURE.1 CARL DUDLEY VARVEL, Ohio State University. THE AREA AS A UNIT. The Scioto Marsh, a bog soil province in the western part of Hardin County, is the largest of several such areas in the glaciated region of Ohio. The term "Marsh" is no longer used here in the technical sense, but is a "carry over" from the days before the area was drained. It extends over 16,000 acres2 and is believed to be one of the largest continuous onion producing areas in North America. Here the growing onion characterizes the summer landscape. The subject of its culture is foremost in local conversation. Onion cultivation leads successively to a condition of distinct wealth or relative poverty. It motivates an interstate migration of interesting laborers and furnishes the raison d'etre of three settlements within the local region. The greatest agricultural interest of most of the landowners is the onion. On an average about 3,500 acres of onions are harvested. In recent years the acreage has diminished largely as a result of several years of unfavorable climatic conditions which minimized the merchantable yield per acre. In 1915, an exceptional year, over 5,500 acres were harvested. In approaching the region from all directions one sees distinctly the terminal moraines and other glacial deposits. (Fig. 1.) The deposits at the north are part of the watershed between the Ohio River system and the Lake Erie drainage basin. The drumlins and kames at the west and south enclose the marsh and divide the waters of the Scioto Valley from those of the Miami Valley.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.

ENSTU 471 Fall 2016 Developing a Bike-Share Program for Salinas and CSUMB Introduction Bike-share programs are alternate forms of transportation most commonly found on college campuses or in city centers. These programs allow citizens, visitors, students and others to check-out a bike from a self-serve station and take it from point A to point B. Bike-share programs have grown worldwide at an increasing rate within the past decade. Image 1 shows that in 2001 there were only four worldwide cities that adopted a bike-share program, but that number dramatically increased from the years 2002 to 2014, when there were eight-hundred and fifty-five worldwide cities with bike-share programs.

Page | 3 In 2017, the Ohio Department of Health partnered with local nonprofit Yay Bikes! to encourage bicycle commuting by state agency employees, with the ultimate goal of increasing daily physical activity. 64 employees from 10 state agencies participated in one- hour bike rides led by seasoned commuter cyclists, in which ride leaders modeled how to ride in traffic, explained rules of the road, and introduced local bicycling amenities such Park & Pedal locations and CoGo Bike Share. Post-ride surveys and unsolicited feedback reveal participants gained significant levels of knowledge and confidence from the experience, were inspired to change their behavior, and shared what they learned with others. One rider reported being stunned by the beauty of riding down High Street. Photo by: Deo Martinez “I was pleasantly surprised at how much motorists were cooperating with us. Also, we rode streets that I would have never ridden on because they look too ‘busy’.” “[My favorite part was] Getting out of the office and back on a bike; been too long.” “[I was surprised by] How easy it is to ride during lunch hour.” — Ride participants Page | 4 Key Program Findings Surveys revealed that ride participants: Had a great time: The average rating for the experience was 4.3 on a 5-point scale (between “Great” and “Excellent”).

The study, led by Alta Planning + Design, includes a feasibility study, business plan and implementation strategy, which will: • Identify target areas and station locations suited to supporting the successful implementation of a bike share program; • Estimate the potential size and scope of a bike share system; • Recommend the optimal business model (system technology, ownership structure, operating conditions and funding options); and • Recommend a blueprint and timeline for a possible launch and operations of bike share in St. Louis. The Engagement Schedule During the week of May 12, Great Rivers Greenway formally introduced the St. Louis Bike Share Study to the public and the project’s Technical Advisory and Citizen and Business Advisory Committees. The public website, ( ) was launched which included information on the project scope and basic information on bike share programs, an online survey and a map for identifying possible bike share stations. On May 14, the first public open house was conducted at the Judith and Dennis Jones Visitor and Education Center in Forest Park from 4:00 to 7:00 pm. The next day, at Webster University’s Downtown Campus, Great Rivers Greenway hosted a Downtown Briefing from 7:30 to 8:30 am, followed by a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting from 10 to 11:30 am.
