An Iowa State College entomologist argues farmers can earn about 28 dollars per hour by spending ten hours over a 20 day period examining corn for first brood borer eggs and applying treatments. With spraying costs around five dollars per acre and potential yield gains of twelve bushels, net income could exceed two hundred eighty dollars from the ten hours spent checking a radar field.

Today tractors and radios replace the bell, leaving a nostalgic ache for simpler signals and feasts.
