Soft Wheat for Flour in Yamazaki Kitchen Test Lab
In Wooster Ohio the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center runs a soft wheat quality laboratory under Dr William Yamazaki to test milling and baking traits of new wheat lines. The USDA ARS and 17 wheat breeders cooperate to evaluate flour quality for cakes and cookies, emphasizing end product over field yield. Breeders create new lines by pollinating flowers and advancing generations, but only flour quality determines market value.

Oberlin rector to take pay cut and moonlight in Mentor
Rev. L Peter Beebe will remain as rector at Christ's Episcopal Church in Oberlin while taking a fulltime second job as director of an interdenominational retreat in Mentor. The pay cut stems from financial problems tied to a controversy over women priests. The vestry approved the plan for Beebe to start January 1 at Shadowbrook House.
