Seventeen years ago a number
of beet seeds were stored away by
a Danish seed testing station.
Each year some have been 'With-
drawn for experimental pesrposes.
Tests proved that eighty-five per
cent of germination took place in
the second year and twenty-four
per cent in the seventeenth year
of dormancy. Seeds of white do-
er germinated after a lapse of
twenty-five years.
Nearly 150,000 persons in Aus-
tria are receiving government un-

consulted mirrors. These, if bro-
