Penn State Honors
Plant Research Aid
UNIVERSITY PARK - Clendon
E. Hollar, research aide for the
plant nutrition laboratory in the
Department of Horticulture at
Penn State, was honored for his 25
years of service with the College of
Agriculture at an awards
ceremony yesterday.
Hollar specializes in plant leaf
analysis for research and ex
tension. Using a spectrometer, he
scans plant material for 12
elements, such as phosphorus,
potash and nitrogen and prepares
reports for researchers in the
College and Agriculture as well as
for the U.S. Department of
Agriculture Research Station at
Beltsville, the Eodale Institute,
other universities, and state
departments of agriculture.
After graduating from Butler
High School in Ohio, he entered the
Air Force and was assigned coding
and statistical work. In 1951 he
moved to Bellefonte to work as a
laboratory technician with Cerro
Copper and Brass Company, then
known as Titan Metal Company.
Ten years later a story in the
newspaper about Penn State’s new
spectrometer prompted him to call
the plant nutrition lab about
working with it. He’s been there
ever since.
Accuracy is his pride While
pressures to get the analysis out
yesterday are sometimes difficult,
‘knowing I got out a dependable
report is very satisfying,” says
Hollar

alternate tun tires are available
on all three models.
The Model 255 tractor is powered
by a 24 horsepower engine with 21
PTO horsepower. Other features
that increase the versatility of the
Model 255 include live hydraulics,
a Category I three-point hitch and
