Fertilizer substitutes for nitrate of soda in fruit growing

University of Maryland professor Di A Schrader says sulfate of ammonia and mixed fertilizers like 10 6 4 can replace nitrate of soda for annual fertilization. Apply sulfate of ammonia in early spring about three to four weeks before bloom, or as a fall application between September 5 and November 1 to avoid delays in ripening. Cyanamid offers similar results but also requires autumn application and caution about leaf-out timing.

More Efficient Use Of Hog Raising Facilities

College Park Maryland April 10 pork producers can improve efficiency by marketing gilts that fail to conceive after breeding attempts. UMD Extension Service expert Joseph M Vial cites USDA tests at Beltsville showing 65 percent conception for gilt failures versus 82 percent for gilts bred successfully the nest season.
