Barnard hopes to inspire interest in prairie with new field guide By Donna Sullivan, Editor Almost as common as the air we breathe, especially for those living outside of urban areas, are the grasses that surround us; so common as to be overlooked and often taken for granted, save for the weekly watering and mowing. But Iralee Barnard sees grasses differently, with a love for the prairie that runs deep and a desire to ed- ucate others on the important role it plays in our daily lives. Her father was in the Air Force, so she traveled around quite a bit, but does have family ties to the Kansas prairie. Her great-grandfa- ther homesteaded near New- ton. “I moved here forty years ago and became fasci- nated with the prairie plants and set out to learn about all the plants that are just right outside my door here,” Barnard said. Barnard is a retired Kansas State University Ex- tension botanist and also worked at the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve. While at KSU she was re- sponsible for providing plant specimen identification for Iralee Barnard traveled Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma with her husband Ken, photographing the many species of prairie grasses for her county agents as well as in- book, Field Guide to the Common Grasses of Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska.

At the CKFF, the MA will display many Kansas sportfish and non-game fish. Species typically on display include largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, spotted bass, white bass, striped bass, hybrid striped bass (wiper), bluegill, green sunfish, longear sunfish, channel catfish, blue catfish, flathead catfish, buffalo, common carp, walleye, sauger, saugeye, redear sunfish, black crappie, white crappie, longnose gar, spotted gar, freshwater drum and many more. All MA fish, except for the stripers, were collected from Kansas waters using standard fisheries science collection techniques. Fisheries biologists will be on hand at this MA event passing out literature and talking with you the public about the state’s fish resources. The MA travels to only three events throughout the state each year. It is always on display at the Kansas Lyon County State Fair. Organizers are thrilled to have the MA make an appearance at the Central Kansas Free Fair. Don’t miss your opportunity to come view this fascinating ex- hibit close to home.

The most obvious way is to avoid being out there when it’s wet! That may well be a difficult task if we continue in the same weather pattern we are now. When traffic can’t be avoided on wet soils, consider axle configura- tions (where possible) that reduce tire/track pressure as well as a minimization of axle weights in general. An- other option that you might want to consider is con- trolled traffic patterns. Controlled traffic is defined as confining traffic to about 10% of the surface area of the field. If you are interested in design of a controlled traf- fic pattern, now is the time to start looking at what those patterns may be. Sect. 1 7-21-15.qxp:Layout 1 7/16/15 12:53 PM Page 10
