Evaluation of bravo for disease control in seed alfalfa, 1982

EVALUATION OF BRAVO FOR DISEASE CONTROL IN SEED ALFALFA, 1982: A field with a 3-yr-old stand under irrigation on Portneuf very fine loam was used for this test. It was typical of seed fields in this area in that lower leaves were lost from shading and disease during the growing season. Different Bravo rates were applied to field length strips with a tractor mounted sprayed (boom width = 28.5 ft, PTO pump, T-jet 6503 nozzles, 28 psi). Three consecutive applications were made at, "full bloom" on Jun 27, and then Aug 4, and finally on Aug 27. The treatments were randomized and replicated 4 times. Seed pollinization was enhanced with adequate alfalfa leafcutting bees (Megachile rotundata), taken to the field on Jul 6. Field observations and a preharvest plant sampling were made to compare leaf loss. Also, the bee activity and flower set were observed on treatments. The seed crop was harvested by cutting a 15-ft swath from the middle of the strip with a self propelled combine

Evaluation of bravo for disease control in alfalfa cultivars grown for hay, 1983

EVALUATION OF BRAVO FOR DISEASE CONTROL IN ALFALFA CULTIVARS GROWN FOR HAY, 1983: The alfalfa cultivars, having Turkish and/or Flemish parentage and which were adapted to the northern and central U.S., were established under irrigated culture in late spring, 1981, on a productive Portneuf silt loam. Plots were randomized block with 4 replications, each split for Bravo, and were 5 x 25 ft. Following the establishment year, Bravo was applied to the stubble prior to regrowth in an attempt to control inoculum. The tractor-mounted spray rig, which had a 25-ft boom (T-jet 6503 nozzles, 40 psi, 35 gpm) was driven across only the Bravo-treated plots in 1982, but across all plots in 1983 to eliminate the wheel compaction variable

The Williams Scale of Attitude toward Paganism: development and application among British Pagans

This article builds on the tradition of attitudinal measures of religiosity established by Leslie Francis and colleagues with the Francis Scale of Attitude toward Christianity (and reflected in the Sahin-Francis Scale of Attitude toward Islam, the Katz-Francis Scale of Attitude toward Judaism, and the Santosh-Francis Scale of Attitude toward Hinduism) by introducing a new measure to assess the attitudinal disposition of Pagans. A battery of items was completed by 75 members of a Pagan Summer Camp. These items were reduced to produce a 21-item scale that measured aspects of Paganism concerned with: the God/Goddess, worshipping, prayer, and coven. The scale recorded an alpha coefficient of 0.93. Construct validity of the Williams Scale of Attitude toward Paganism was demonstrated by the clear association with measures of participation in private rituals
