Symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria such as Rhizobium usually live in the root nodules of legumes (such as peas, alfalfa, and locust trees). Here they form a mutualistic relationship with the plant, producing ammonia in exchange for carbohydrates.
Tony Yardley is a national treasure living in Jacksonville, Alabama. Way back in the early 70s, I was fortunate to play in an acoustic group along with Tony called Woodfork. He was fabulous then and he just keeps getting better!
I was so elated that he did it, and I thank the Lord that he did. Just like a Nathan, Tony never quit. Tony Nathan will sign copies of his new book, Touchdown Tony: Running With a Purpose, at 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 18, at the Alabama Booksmith, 2626 19th Place South, Homewood.
