Maryland corn fertilization yields steady gains across fields
The treatment shows a consistent increase of 5 to 30 bushels per acre over unfertilized rows, regardless of plow under treatment. Only in the exceptionally dry 1954 sandy soil did planter fertilization fail, a rare exception. Generally, 200 pounds of 3-12-6 with corn planes offer handsome returns for the investment.

Paying Too Much To Raise Farm Animals
Maryland farmers may pay twice as much to raise some animals due to varying production costs. Dr. W. W. Green of the University of Maryland cites factors like litter size, pig survival, age, and feed needs, plus record keeping to control costs. He notes simple methods for tracking birth weights, weaning, and dam milking, and suggests using ear notching or branding for identification.

4-H Lamb Raising Boosts 1949 Outlook and Feasibility
Bowdy Whittle of the University of Maryland extension urges 4-H youths to try lamb raising as a viable project. He notes lamb prices look good in 1949 due to a low national sheep population dating back to Civil War times. Maryland's suitability for sheep raising and simpler requirements compared with beef or swine are highlighted, with advantages in feeding, housing, and record keeping. Lamb feeding is a short, affordable project, especially for limited funds. E bonds advance: Potomac Edison preferred stock and 3.25 percent bonds have drawn investor interest, with bonds rising from 102.46 to a 104 bid, and stock moving toward 105 as of February.
