pa0004390 - Park Ranger Mr Stanley Blazevics, 58, displays onions on his allotment near his home in Wyke near Bradford which he claims were ready-cooked when plucked from the soil. With a thermometer, he found an eight foot square hot spot with temperatures over 110 degrees F, in which his onions were coooking as efficiently as if in a pan on the stove... and they taste the same, he claimed. Two phenomena have caused a mystery to his local gardening circles and a scientist from Bradford University was called in to investigate. His theory that the heat may have been created by compost has met with a lukewarm reception from Mr =Blazevics, because he treats the whole garden in the same way. After harveting, he plans a deep dig for the cause of the intense heat. - 5th October 1982 - © TopFoto / PA
