Brad A. Bays, a geographer at Oklahoma State University, conducted the research. The survey involved a study area of87 acres in the western part of Stillwater as specifiedby the survey and planning subgrant stipulations prepared by the SHPO. The surveyresulted in the minimal level documentation of213 properties within the designated study area. Minimal level documentation included the completion of the Historic Preservation Resource Identification Form and at least two elevation photographs for each property. This document reportsthe findings of the survey and provides an analysis of these findingsto guide the SHPO's long term preservation planning process. This reportis organized into several parts. A narrative historic context of the study area from the date of earliest development ( 1927) to the mid-twentieth century (1955) is provided as a general basis for interpreting and evaluating the surveyresults.

  • Literature on the Vegetation of Oklahoma! RALPH W· KELTING, Unberlltj of Tulia, Tulia Add WJL T
    126 PROCEEDINGS OF THE OKLAHOMA Literature on the Vegetation of Oklahoma! RALPH W· KELTING, UnberlltJ of Tulia, Tulia aDd WJL T. PENFOUND, UnlYenlty of Oklahoma, Norman The original stimulus tor this bibliographic compilation on the vegeta­ tion of Oklahoma came from Dr. Frank Egler, Norfolk, Connecticut, who is sponsoring a series ot such papers for aU the states of the country. Oklahoma is especially favorable for the study· of vegetation since it is a border state between the cold temperate North and the warm temperature South, and between the arid West and the humid East. In recognition of the above climatic differences, the state has been divided into seven sec­ tions. The parallel of 35 degrees, 30 minutes North Latitude has been utiUzed to divide the state into northern and southern portions. The state has been further divided into panhandle, western, central, and eastern sections, by the use of the following meridians: 96 degrees W., 98 degrees ·W., and 100 degrees W. In all cases, county lines have been followed so that counties would not be partitioned between two or more sections. The seven sections are as follows: Panhandle, PH; N9rthwest, NW; Southwest, SW; North Central, NC; South Central, SC; Northeast, NE; and Southeast, SE (Figure 1). The various sections of the state have unique topographic features ot interest to the student of vegetation. These sections and included topo­ graphic features are as tollows: Panhandle: Black Mesa, high plains, playas (wet weather ponds); Northwest: Antelope Ht1Is, Glass Mountains, gypsum hUls, sand desert, Waynoka Dunes, salt plains, Great Salt Plains Reservoir; Southwest: gypsum hills, Wichita Mountains, Altus-Lugert Reservoir; North Central: redbed plains, sandstone hills, prairie plains; South Central: redbed plains, sandstone hUls, Arbuckle Mountains, Lake Texoma; Northeast: Ozark Plateau, Grand Lake;.

Within Oklahoma you’ll be traveling to unique places or regions called “countries.” Maybe you’ve heard of “Green Country” with its forests and specialty crops, or “Red Carpet Country,” named for the red rocks and soil formed during the ancient Permian age. Each region or country you visit will have special interesting themes or features, plus fun and sometimes challenging activities that you will be able to do. You will notice each country or region can be identifi ed by natural, economic, historic, cultural, geographic and geological features. The three maps you see on this page are examples of maps you might need for future Geo-Explorations. As a Geo-Detective having fun with the following activities, you’ll experience being a geographer and a geologist at the same time!

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microtllming. While the most advanced teehnology has been used to photograpii and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting througli an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
