Weeds will persist but damage can be kept low through clean seed from reliable sources or seed firm testing by the state experiment station. Use a fanning mill to remove weed seeds from homegrown seed. Rotate crops, cultivate clearly to fight weeds, and smother persistent varieties with heavy crops while studying weed behavior to find weak spots.

Length of Time Seeds Retain Vitality and Germination
Seed vitality varies with storage conditions temperature and moisture. Germinating power declines after year one or two, peaking around three years for most seeds. Hard coated seeds last longer than soft, with lifespans listed for alfalfa clover barley corn oats cucumber wheat lettuce pumpkin radish redtop beans timothy tomato and more.

Vast Network of Paved Streets Across American Cities
A national census of the 200 largest American cities shows 54,975 miles of paved streets in 10,000-plus populated areas, based on last year’s reports to the Asphalt Association in New York. If laid end to end the roads would form a highway eighteen feet wide that could circle Hoboken more than twice. The survey ranks the U S ahead of almost every other country in road paving.
