department of plant breeding and
biometry.
Among Cornell’s new crop
varieties announced at the con
ference were an exceptionally
high-yielding wheat and two
alfalfa varieties, one resistant to a
fungal disease known as “Ver
ticillium wilt” and the other
resistant to anthracnose, an alfalfa
stem malady. Both diseases have
become increasing problems.
The conference also featured a
series of talks ranging from tissue
culture in plant breeding and its
implications for seed production to
new services to be offered by the
New York State Seed Testing
Laboratory at Cornell’s New York
State Agricultural Experiment
Station at Geneva.

WALLA WALLA, Wash. A
new, small-sized spin spreader
that covers as much ground as
bigger, conventional applicators
has been developed by Wimer
Machine Works. Called the Little
Big Rig SS-60 Spin Spreader, the
unit has been designed to trail
accurate ammonia detection from
0 to 100 ppm and comes with a
direct-read meter mounted on the
control panel. The sensor head is
equipped with 156 feet of pretested
shielded wire. Additional sensor
head line extensions are available
in 50,100, and 150 foot lengths.
Dependability, accuracy, and
flexability of use were the primary
concerns during the last year of
development and field testing.
Confidence gained during this
period has allowed the
manufacturer to offer a one year
full guarantee on all parts and
labor, plus a 30 day unconditional
satisfaction guarantee.
