 The tree fruits are of particu- lar interest to horticulturists, MT. Irwin said, because as yet no va riety has survived the winter here. Station experts have dis covered three reasons why they die: CD Early sun, at low angle, sunburns tree cells and disease enters through the resulting peeled areas: CD Long winters with drying winds; (3) Late rains.
 Given the reasons for the fail UT. to survive, MT. Irwin said 1t would be only a matter of time until tree fruits are developed which will be adapted to commer- cial use. Norway and Sweden had the same problems 40 years ago." he pointed out. "They found the answers, and we'll ind them, too. What we really need, is someone who can go to those

Budget Director Eyes Expense Account Of Government Agencies in Alaska

To scan the budgets of every governmental agency in the ter ritory, is Sam R. Broadbent's req son for being in Alaska this month. MT. Broadbent is with the Bureau of the Budget of Washington, D. C.
 He arrived in Juneau last week, and was expected to come to An chorage sometime this week. He intends to remain there until about July 20, then going on to Fairbanks and returning to Wash ington, D. C., by way of south eastern Alaska again.
 The budget-man has a tremen- dous program of work outlined for himself. He plans, while here, to take a peek at the finance fig ures of two or three dozen gov ernment agencies. However, he'll concentrate the major portion of his time on the budgets of mili- tary forces in Alaska.
 MT. Broadbent was last in the Matanuska Valley in 1946. He spoke with Don L. Irwin, direc- tor of the Agricultural Research Administration, at Juneau, when he expressed great interest in the development of the past four years in the Valley. The budget representative plans visit to Palmer, but the time of that visit was uncertain, at press-time this week.

 The grasses, grains and le- gumes experimental plots are be- ing tested in cooperation with the veterans, on-farm training classes. Plots have been planted in the Panama Valley, along the Glenn Highway to the north, here in the Matanuska Valley, and on the Kenai Peninsula.
 This testing is nothing that will be completed this year or next, the research director reminded. He said it takes at least six years of plant breeding to get a per fected plant. One superior plant from 11,000 trials is the average that the horticulturist looks for, so Alaskans can't plan for home grown. cherry pie for some few years yet.
