Scientist Suggests Commonwealth Experimental Farin

NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE. Eol" land. Cept. s - (CP)—A_ lead- ing British agricultural scientist tonight recommended establish- ment of a commonwealth experi- mental farm to develop better drought-resistant grasses.

Sir John Russell. president of the British Association for

advancement of science, told the’

association! annual meeting in his presidential address:

"In view of the very great im- portance of grass for-soil con- servation in all parts of the _Com- nionwealth, it is highly desirable that a well-equipped common- wealth station should be’ estab- lished to study existing semi-arid types (of grasses) and produce new ones."

Sir John. for many years di- rector of one of Britain's most important experimental farms. speculated that the bull may be- come obsolete and disappear from dairy herds.

He described a discovery by the dairy research institute which turns virgin heifers into full-time milk producers without the aid of a bull. This was “the first stsl‘! in making the male redundant."

This is done by slipping a p111 under the virgin heifers, or a barren cow‘s, skin. The pill is called diet ylstilboestrol. This causes changes which induce lac- tation, the milk-producing pro- ceases.

Whether this process works out or not. Sir John foresaw only "a small select aristocracy" of bulls in the future.

Artificial insemination has been developed to a stage where up to 15,000 cows a year can be servic- ed by one bull and so most bulls will become "unwanted anachron- isms."

Sir John saw hope for increas- ed food production in the fuller use of marginal lands. fuller use of fertilizers, progress in plant and livestock breeding and more effective control of pests and dia- eases.

with the world's population in- creasing by 20,000,000 a year. it is important that non-farmers "earn" the food they eat. "Food producers will labor to obtain a surplus for the outside world only

[on condition that they are provid-

- ed with adequate appliances and incentive." Sir John said. _Qi___.__
