Our re- cent weather has made good ventilation more difficult be- cause of the moisture and the wet conditions. Some dairy barns may need extra exhaust fans to pull out the excess heat and moisture so they can have more healthy cows, bet- ter quality milk, and provide a longer life to the building. When we get condensation on the walls, ceilings, or windows it is a sign of need of more ventilation. Additional move- ment of air from the outside plus additional insulation may be needed in some barns. De- signed inlets to bring in the fresh air may be needed in tight barns, Open windows & doors should not be used in connection with an exhaust fan system; this may result in drafts and udder infections. A publication on Dairy Barn ventilation is available from our Extension Off.ce. FLAME-RETARDANT SLEEPWEAR GRADUALLY REACHING STORES Children’s sleepwear in the new flame-retardant fabrics are coming onto the market in increasng numbers, accord- ing to surveys by clothing & textile personnel at Penn State university. Observations in stores from mid-October to mid-November revealed that at least one national chain store has already converted its complete line of children’s sleepwear, sizes 0 to 6, to the new flame-retardant fabrics. By July of 1973, all child- ren’s sleepers, pajamas, robes and gowns must meet flame- retardant standards set by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce. Garments labeled flame-retar- dant include those made from modacrylic fibers and 100 per cent cotton fabrics with flame- retardant finishes. The Penn State study is part of a Northeastern regional re- search project of clothing and textile researchers of the Ag- ricultural Experiment Stations within the land universities of eight states. The project is en- titled “Consumer, Market, and Laboratory Studies of Flame Resistant Textile Items.” In addition to Pennsylvania, the analysis includes consumers, stores, and laboratory studies in Maine, Vermont, Delaware, Rhode Island, New York, Vir- ginia and Maryland. Directing the Penn State re- search are Dr. Barbara Dens- more and Dr. Mary Ann Gen- tner of the faculty in textiles and clothing, College of Hum- an Development. Graduate as- sistants on the project are Rosalie Rhen of State College and Eleanor Quick of Raleigh North Carolina. The mid-October to mid-No- vember analysis included ob- servations of flame-retardant children’s sleepwear. in thirty stores in Northumberland, Huntingdon & Dauphin coun- ties, The survey team visited discount, variety, and depart- ment stores—as well as child- ren’s specialty shops and cata- log stores with retail outlets. Sales people in one-fourth of the stores indicated they were getting requests for the new flame-retardant sleep- wear, Tentative findings indi- THE CONTROL of weeds in alfalfa stands is very neces- sary at this time of the year; weather conditions have fav- ored rapid weed growth this fall and some stands may be injured by Rank growth of chickweed. Fall or early win- ter are the best times to spray with a herbicide because the weeds are small and easier to kill. With the advancing pric- es of hay and other roughag- es, it is suggested that good weed control this winter may improve the quality and ton- nage of the hay crop next summer, A number of herbi- cides may be used depending upon the age of the stand and the grass-legume mixture. The 1973 Agronomy Guide is av- ailable and contains this in- formation. The important thing is to give weed control in alfalfa some attention now in order to get a better alfalfa crop next summer, THERE ARE two important publications available from the Penn State Extension Of- fice at this time.
