The OSU station also has released another forage variety—Lucky Ladino Clover. Both varieties were developed by OSU agronomist Rod V. F ra k e s . Seed fo r them is available through the Oregon Foundation Seed program at OSU. The new fescue variety is expected to be used in turf areas, p a rtic u la rly in the Northw est, New England, North Central States and Great Britain. Work on it began in May, 1964, when 83 sources of fine fescue m a te ria l were established at the Hyalop Agronomy Farm near Cor vallis. In the t i r f testing program since 1965, Checker has been performing in the top group of varieties in areas where it was tested, including Yorkshire, Looking for a good way to save?

Somewhat slower in emergence than some v arieties, it exhibits good ground cover when established, has an acceptable dark green color and is fine leaved. Some tolerance to leaf spot has been reported. Lucky, the new clover variety, is an outgrowth of Oregon Ladino seed provided by H.H. Rampton and Harold Finnell in 1961. Five genotypes, selected from a 2,376-piant population, were crossed. Lucky, the result, has no water m ark on the leaf, a common trait of most Ladino clover, giving it rapid identification. "Tests indicate that Lucky not only is an acceptable seed producer and forage producer but also can take the place of Oregon Ladino where there is a need," said Frakes. "Lim ited data suggests that it will produce equally as well as the original variety and perhaps better than certain other v a rie tie s c u rre n tly a v a ila b le ," the agronom ist said. & CORN KING .

Here I am at “ finisterra” (land's end)—and it is. Here, off Cabo San Lucas, the Pacific Ocean meets the Gulf of C alifo rn ia (Sea of C ortez). P retty generally, this makes for rip tides and can get pretty rough, but fishing is great. H a v e n 't seen a U.S. newspaper, television, or heard a U.S. radio program in all this time I've done this before, and come back to the same old situation Never really lost any news, ideas, or even a work word Last Tuesday 1 climbed the hill to see the condominium sites at Posada Concepcion. A tremendous view, with the units buili into and blending with the rock cliffs with thatched roofs But a long, steep trek—or drive—to beach and boats. A long straight road acroas horrible, but beautiful desert took us to Ciudad Con stitution. Here are great areas of cultivation with pumps and irrigation producting a great variety of produce A novelty in all this vast desolation Can't understand how they can pump such tremendous quantities of water— surely not enough rainfall to replenish the underground reservoirs. More straight desert road, then hills and curves downwards toward the Bay of LaPaz. About 100 miles from LaPaz the motor started missing With fingers crossed, we limped to E l Cardon trailer park and electricity! Apparently the plugs failed and I almost spent the night in the d e s e rt- then what? Would have been horribly inconvenient at the least. Electricity at E l Cardon let me charge batteries, save propane, and play the stereo Don't realize the blessings of such things until you spend a few weeks without. To downtown LaPaz for margaritas and seafood dinner in the open waterfront restaurant at La Perla Hotel. Trailer parks here are about ten percent full, and all businesses are complaining about lack of tourist trade. With gas at 61 per gallon and ferry rates doubled, it's just too expensive for great hordes of tourists to come this far This is the end of the trip south, from now on all driving will be back towards home, however much time that takes A short drive to a mile of deserted public beach gives us three or fours of surf and sun, to deep darkening the tan Hot, but breezily pleasant, and this is one of the mast beautiful beach areas in the world. Miles of white sand, with rocky headlands, and sheltered coves Us sun worshippers seek beach and sun, while the elderly, the natives, and the imbibers sit in the shade for siesta What a life? This is the first place, this trip, where I've spent a typical Mexican night. Rixisters crow, dogs bark, and broken mufflers foul the beautiful tropics Incidentally, we crossed the Tropic of Cancer a few miles down the road, so we are in the tropics Monday we finally tore ourselves away from the beach and end of the world and headed north. An uneventful drive put us back in LaPaz We won't really be back in a civilized area u ntil Ensenada—a thousand miles, and a few days away.
