Creeping Alfalfa Good,
But Not In Delaware

Creeping alfalfa has been in
farm news often lately, and is be-
ing given a big push.
1t is excellent for range lands in
the Great Plains, but it's not neces-
sarily suited to Delaware cOndi-
tiOns. That's the opinion of William
H. Mitchell, assistant agronOmist
of the Delaware Agricultural EX-
tension Service Several varieties
of alfalfa are being grown and rat
ed by the agrOnomy department,
two of which have made the news.
The Extension Service recommends
the wilt resistant Buffalo for long
time stands and adapted common
alfalfas for stands intended for
shorter duration. These will give
Delaware farmers good stands and
yields.
The story behind creeping alfalfa
is a dramatic one, and has been
spanked by the need for a legume
associate for grasses that can per-
s:st under hard climatic and graz
( ing conditions.
BY combining natural strains of
/ creeping alfalfa from places such
as Turkey, Siberia, Greece and
/ Spain, plant breeders have produc-
cd new ones that seem to meet the
requirements of our Great Plains
area in the west and northwest.

TURKEY HAS SURPLUS WHEAT

ISTANBUL - up - Turkey has
a record wheat crop this year
thanks in part to u. S. assistance
but may have trouble selling the
surplus abroad.
There are two reasons: Other
wheat-grOwing countries also had
good crops, and are competing in
the world market. Turkeys asking
price is higher than the going rate,
because the Turkish government
paid the farmer a high price for his
wheat
The governments "Ofice of Soils
Products" buys directly from the
Turkish farmer a good share of
the wheat raised here. The inde-
pendent newspaper Hurriyet said
the crop of six million tons should
leave an expOrtable surplus of l.
/ 100000 tons.

then and April, 1852, the index fell
back to 497.

By Dr.. Paul Popenoe

Let's face this problem honestly
though it's a tough one:
If wife saves a little money out
of her household allowance, is she
entitled to keep it for herself, or
does it belong to her husband?
There's no doubt about how the
wives will vote! But husbands
don't always see it the same way,
and it is a problem that comes
up frequently. Mr.. j. expressed
a common opinion among hus-
bands when he complained. II
give my wife a liberal allowance
to run the home. She chisels out
of it for her own benefit. The
first thing / know she has got
something extravagant, that she
knows / would not have approved.
and when I put her in the corner
she says that she bought it with
money she saved out Of the
grocery allowance. That's plain
dishonesty. Mr.. Popenoe.. II she
doesn't need the money for
groceries it should go back in the
general fund"
Most wives, I repeat won't
agree with him. The question
came up in more acute form
when Mr.. and Mrs. L. sought the

GWUDuncers
Seek Careers,

By Betty Miles

Some of the women with George
Washington University's Dance
Production Groups dance for
pleasure. some plan to dance for
profit, but all subscribe to the
theory that dancing can be fun
and a creative experience for anna
teurS as well as a delight to be-
hold in professionals.
One of those with a serious
career in the arts in mind is senior
Joan Higginson. of 537 North
Piedmont street, Arlington. who
came to GWU as a physics major.
but is now a dance major in the
department of physical education

Modern MARRIAGE
Wife Is Entitled to Have
An Independent Income

help Of a marriage counselor. Mrs.
L. had no income or money Of
her own, but her husband dis
covered that she had a separate
savings account, Of which he had
been unaware, and that she had
more than $1,000 in it! He de-
manded an explanation. It turned
out that she had saved this money
out of the allowance for house.
hold expenses and she considered
it her private property. to do with
as she pleased. She was planning
to use it to help her aged parents.
Her husband hit the ceiling-she
was no better than a thief. he
asserted. The marriage was pretty
nearly wrecked on that thousand
dollars.
What about it? Did the money
belong to her, as she claimed. or
to him, as he claimed?
I won't discuss the legal side:
probably that would vary in diff
ferent areas. What is the morality,
so to speak, Of the situation?
The first fact to face. I believe.
is that the wife was entitled to
an independent allowance. but
that this was the wrong way for
her to get it! In every family the
wife and husband should have
independent allowances from the
family income. for which they do
not have to account. It may be
small If the monthly income is
small. but the wife must have at
least a little money which she
can call her own. Unfortunately.
Ia majority of families still refuse
to budget their finances intelli-
gently.
The next thing to consider Is
that this way of saving is not like
lily to strengthen a marriage. Mr..
L. felt that his wife had not fed
him as well as he had a right to
expect because she had been hold
ing out part of the grocery money
for herself. That's not good.
In this particular case I adj
viSed that Mr.. and Mrs. L. agree
on spending that $1,000 for some
thing that would benefit both.
But the case merely points out
the importance Of being more
businesslike in handling family
Finances. And that means being
fair to the wife.
