Per studentequivalentannualcosts are estimatedfor airborne television,InstructionalTelevisionFixed Service(ITFS),satellitetelevision, UHF television, closed circuittelevision,video tape recordings,film,radio, language laboratories, and dial access systems. The appendix analyzes componential and operating costs for five media systems (instructional television, audiovisual media system1 educational radio, learning and language laboratories, dial access), using guidelines established in VolumeI of the study. Estimated costs are presented graphically with price ranges and design considerations. Researchers must examine the possibilities of cost savings in media development and consider the relationship of instructional technology to the educational system, government, and the knowledge industry.

(1920) from Graceland College (Lamoni, Iowa), attended Iowa State College (University), and the Dodge Radio and telegraph Institute in Valpariso, Indiana. In 1914, he established his first experimental radio station in Lamoni, Iowa, 9WU. During World War I, Mr. Church taught radio first at Ft. Levenworth, Kansas, and later at Camp Meade, Maryland. After the war, Mr. Church returned to Lamoni and operated 9ZH until 1920 when Dr. Fredrick M.

  • NY FM Network Dec, 1948
    FEELING that radio was not getting sufficient and specialized farm information to the farmers, that an exchange of ideas was not keeping pace with farming progress, and that city stations were not necessarily serving the farmers’ exclusive interests, it was decided recently by ten farm organizations at Ithaca, New York that an FM radio network should be established to serve farm homes throughout New York State. The result has been the establishment of the Rural Radio Network, Inc., wholly-owned by ten farm organizations, serving 118,000 farms in New York State. It is the first all-radio network of its kind in the United States and, in its final phase, incorporates every known means of communication to carry on its operation. Station Locations Stations in the network are located at Wethersfleld, Bristol Center, Ithaca, DeRuyter, Cherry Valley, and Turin, New York. Each of these station’s transmitter is located at an elevation of at least 2000 feet. It is also planned to establish full-time affiliates at New York City and Ogdensburg, New York, which means that the network may soon blanket the entire New York State area. Elevation of the transmitting sites, which offers line-of-sight radio transmission from Albany to Buffalo, also points the way to television application, although the first job of the RRN is to serve by aural FM radio the New York State farm population. Each station has a 250-watt General Electric FM broadcast transmitter with effective radiated power of 1300 watts. This power radiation enables the service area of each station to overlap that of its adjoining neighbor and, of course, makes the radio network possible.

    BANKRUPTCY OF A SUPPLY COOPERATIVE: THE CASE OF AGWAY, INC.* by Bruce L. Anderson Associate Professor Department of Applied Economics & Management Cornell University E-mail: [email protected] and Brian M.

With the largest membership, expansive operations, and the highest number of employees, it became the dominant cooperative in the region. Agway also played a very prominent role in regional and national organizations of cooperatives as well as in international cooperative development. In it’s day, Agway and it’s predecessor organizations were highly innovative and helped commercialize many valuable new feed and fertilizer products developed through research conducted at Land Grant Universities as well as through work conducted at Agway owned research farms. On October 1, 2002 Agway, Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The filing involves a select group of Agway holdings including: Feed and Nutrition, Agronomy, Seedway, Feed Commodities International, Country Best Produce, CPG Nutrients, CPG Technologies and the Agway General Agency.
