The laboratory, operated by J. L. Scoggins, is located on the Range area at the junction of Easterwood Road and Highway 60. Dr. J. R. Runkles and his techni cian, Charles Wendt, both of the Department of Soil and Crop Sciences, are cooperating in the studies on mesquite. They are working on a three phased experi ment: (1) The effects of air tem perature; (2) the effects of humid ity; (3) and the effect of soil tem perature on the water use. According to Robert Haas, as sistant professor in the Department of Range and Forestry, there are these three main approaches in this study: (1) Studies concerning the morphology and anatomy of mes quite; (2) the influence of field environment of the growth of mes quite under natural conditions; (3) the determination of factors influ encing growth and development of mesquite under controlled environ ment. The controlled environment chambers, made of double walled plexiglass with an air space in be tween for insulation, and the lab oratory cost about $35,000, said Haas. They were completed six months ago. The laboratory is equipped with four chambers, 4 ft. by 8 ft., with separately controlled lighting for each. A device known as a “cam” controls the temperature and hu midity. The results from studies in the facility will eventually aid in find ing a better way to control mes quite on Texas rangelands, Haas said. MuJct/M Supply ■'Pidufie *923 So.

The attic which Mrs. Buchanan discovered had been sealed for 175 years. A note found there said that the furniture was lock ed away to keep it from the sold iers. The date of the sealing of the entrance would place the occurrence during the Revolu tionary War. Wives of Department of Bio logy members will serve refresh ments following the talk. A nursery will be open at St. Thomas Parish Hall on Jersey Street. Reservations must be made by noon Thursday. ★ ★ ★ Students interested in National Science Foundation Cooperative Graduate Fellowships for 1965-66 must act immediately, C. M. Loyd, NSF coordinator reminds. The fellowships providing sti pends up to $1,800, plus dependen cy allowances, are for graduate study in a broad range of the sci ences including engineering. Be ginning or advanced graduate stu dents may qualify for the awards which are renewable. “Interested students should visit the NSF Office in the YMCA Building to pick up the application forms which must be completed and filed with Graduate Dean Wayne C. Hall not later than Nov. 2,” Loyd pointed out. ★ ★ ★ The Range and Forestry Club is sponsoring a turkey sale in the Bryan-College Station area.

Holcomb, associate pro fessor in the Department of Agri cultural Education, returned from a month's stay as a consultant to an agricultural school in Coahuila, Mexico. Holcomb was sent to Mexico by the Ford Foundation to divert more students to the study of agricul ture. Holcomb worked with a prepara tory school for agriculture in San Pedro, Coahuila. He surveyed needs of the school and made rec ommendations. The school, “Agua- nueva,” is operated by the Uni versity of Coahuila. “Fewer than three per cent of the students enrolled in higher edu cation in Mexico are being trained in agriculture. It is probable that many of this number have urban rather than rural backgrounds, for only two per cent of the students entering grade one of rural schools complete the sixth grade, and those who do make only four per cent of the scholastic population who have attained this higher level of educa tion,” Holcomb said. Holcomb believes that the prob lem can be alleviated if preparatory schools are located within reach of rural youth and with a high per centage of rural youth as students.
