         In 1881,a new type of weed begin spreading across the northern Great Plains.Unlike other weeds,the tumble weed did not spend its life rooted to the soil,instead,it tumbled and rolled across fields in the wind.The weed had sharp,spiny leaves that could lacerate the flesh of ranchers and horses alike.It exploited the vast area of the plains,thriving in regions too barren to support other plants.With its ability to generate and disseminate numerous seeds quickly,it soon became the scourge of the prairies.

        To present day Americans,the tumbleweed symbolizes the Old West.They read the Zane Grey novels in which rumbleweeds drift across stark western landscapes and and see classic western movie in which tumbleweeds share scenes with cowboys and covered wagons.Yet just over a century ago,the tumbleweed was a newcomer.The first sign of the invasion occurred in North and South Dakota in the late 1870s.

        Farmers had noticed the sudden appearance of the new,unusual weed.aoane group of immigrants,however,did not find the weed at all unfamiliar.atahe tumbleweed,it turns out,was a native of southern Russia,where it was known as Tartar thistle.It was imported to the United States by unknown means.

        Frontier settlers gave the plants various names:saltwort,Russian cactus,and wind witch.But botanists at the Department  of Agriculture preffered the designation Russian tbistle as the plant's common name.However,these botanists had a much harder time agreeing on the plant's scientific name.Generally,botanists compare a plant to published accounts of similar plants,or to samples kept as specimens,Unfortunately,no book described the weed and no samples existed in herbaria in the United States.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon:basalt and breccia.Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the E

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for existing train stations and bridges.In 1863,after spending time working as

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived from a place name.In the seventeenth century,French tailors began making trousers out of a specialized t
