Potato Scientist
Retires In Ohio

COLUMBUS - (SpeciaD - The
Ohio horticulturist whose research
radically changed potato culture in
the United States has retired after
thirty-five years of experimenting
with vegetable crops. He is Dr.
John Bushnell, Minnesotan who
came to the Ohio Agricultural Ex-
pertinent station in 1923.
Although his major contribution
has been to the potato farmers of
Ohio, he also conducted trials with
other vegetables. It was his discov-
cry of the need of the potato tuber
for large amounts of air for which
he was most noted.
His soil porosity experiments
pointed the way to new soil man
agement practices for growing po-
tatoes. Farmers had been packing
the soil by frequent passes of heavy
equipment. Now from DR.. Bush.
nelps experiments, growers follow
a rule of "plow and plant" allow
ing ample space for the circulation
of important oxygen.
Choosing suitable varieties o.
potatoes for Buckeye growers ha,
been another phase of DR.. Bush
nelPs work. He conducted trials a

concentrations were made. Soil fer

his league leading Red Raiders
to billiards Friday evening
where they will encounter one

LYREA Members
Hold Annual
Meeting Friday

Members of the Lower Vel
lowstone Rural Electric Associa-
ton held their goth Annual
meeting Friday, June 9th.
The three trustees whose terms
had expired were reelected.
They are as follows: Ronald
Gordon, Buford, ND; Henry o.
Peterson, Culbertson; and c. R.
Thiessen, Lambert. Other mem
bers of the Board present in adj
dition to those reelected were:
E. H. Robinson and Alex Rau,
Sidney; H. t. Hackley, Culbert-
son; and Dwight Howard, Saw
age.
Roy c.. Zook, who was repre-
senting David Hamil formally
scheduled to appear as the main
speaker, but who had been re-
quired to return to Washington
to attend a congressional COM
mittee hearing, gave an inter
eSting resume of the history of
the REA. Mr.. Zook called at
tention to the future need of
heavying up the REA lines and
the necessity that cooperatives
be on a constant lookout for
new sources of power. MI. Zook
also advised that the policy of
the REA Administration was
merely to render advice to the
c~ooperatives and that the real
operation and management of
each cooperative is and will re-
main at a local level, as each CO.
operative is in fact a separate
corporation. Each cooperative has
the authorization and power to
run its own business so long as
it complies with reasonable fl
nancial REQUIREMENTS as far as
its loan from the Government is
concerned.
The drawing for 10 prizes took
place with the following receiv-
ing the prizes: Mrs. Lottie Car
ter, Mrs. L. E. Joslin, George
