Alfalfa Variety
Tests Reported

An Ohio argronomist today re-
minded farmers that it is entirely
satisfactory to use northern grown
common alfalfa for short rotation
meadows. Station tests h ave
shown that certified varieties do
not yield enough more than COM
mon alfalfa to justify large
price in seed.
John Parsons of the Ohio Agri-
cultural Experiment Station said
there are three points to remem-
Der in making seed purchases for
meadows. Use only recommended
varieties. Common alfalfa from
areas north of central Oklahoma
is satisfactory for l or 2 year
meadows in Ohio. Buy only wilt
resistant alfalfa varieties for long
lay meadows.
If a meadow is to be left down
for 3 years or more, it is essential
to choose a variety resistant to
bacterial wilt. Ranger and Buff
falo are the only wilt resistant
varieties of alfalfa on the recon-
mended list at the present time.
Newer wilt resistant varieties
such as Vernal have not been un-
der test long enough TO determine
their value in Ohio.
Parsons cautioned against the
use of southern alfalfa seed such
as Arizona or California Common
for hay purposes since these var
ieties are not winterhardy. They
are suitable, however, for green
manure or emergency hay.
Kenland is the only recon-
rnended certified variety of red
clover for Ohio. Locally grown
strains of red clover will often
produce as good yields as Ken
land, but they are recommended
only for the local areas in which
they were produced.
Whenever a farmer purchases
seed of a non-certified variety he
should always be sure of the con-
Germ from which he is buying SO
as to get pure seed free from OBJ
iectionable weed seeds.

purposes. Cr. Nelson explained
that nuclear reactors are merely
structures designed to mouse atom
ic experiments and further atomic
power devices. The experiments
would deal with materials and al
loys which would be resistant TO
atomic radiation. DR.. Nelson stat
ed that research work on atomic
fuels would be very beneficial to
those countries who do not have
natural resources With the use Of
atomic energy small countries
could have sufficient power to sup
ply then with energy to run all
the various types of modern de-
vices which today are run by gas,
oil and electr: 1ity. In this way, a
few atomic power plants could sup
ply several hundred more times of
power than the present day power
poor" are capable of supplying
through their natural resources.
Mr.. Robert Stith, public rcla-
tiOnS director for BattalIe, traced
the growth of the institute. The

scientists, engineers and technici-
ans today. Battelle is the world )
largest private non-pcofit research
organization in the world and per-
forms one million dollars worth Of
research per month. Battelles bus
iness is to provide the research for
government and business, selling
nothing but brains. Industrial com

their private laboratory. The spon-
sors get full rights 20 all discover

Stith, these laboratories viii

A New York bond attorney last
night advised that school bond
issues in Virginia be separated
from other bond issues. In view
Of the confused situation on the
indignation question.
The advice was given by John
Pershing. member Of the law flrm
that has served as legal adviser
for o majority Of the recent
bond issues in Northern Vir-
ginia. He addressed o meeting
Of the Alexandria Council. which
voted to hold . public hearing
on proposed bond issues totaling
SIS million.
One Of the proposed expendi-
lures is $l.57l. 900 for school con-
struction.
in view Of the disturbed
situation in some Of the South
ern States, our ofiice made q
study and concluded bonds
issued by Virginia jurisdictions
are valid" Mr.. Pershing said.
Law Suits Possible
He warned. however. that the
confused situation might have
an adverse effect on interest
rates. He also said it is possible
law suits might be filed to pre-
vent the actual use Of the funds
once they are made available
through the bond sale.
"It would be unfortunate to
group school bonds and other
improvement bonds together in
the same issue and have o suit
tie up all the funds when the
suit may be aimed at only the
school bonds" he said.
The council voted to hold the
public hearing on the bond pro-
posals at 1880 pm. next Tues
day in the council chamber. The
issue would include, besides the
school construction funds:
For construction, paving,
widening and otherwise improv-
ing streets, $1,527. 900. This would
include $275, 900 as the city's
share Of the cost Of approaches
to the proposed Jones Point
bridge and $3.50, 900 for widen
