Disease Infested Garden Soils Warn Maryland Gardeners
Garden soils often carry disease after years of cultivation, Dr. R A Jehle notes. He lists resistant varieties for Maryland conditions including Mary Washington asparagus, Maryland Alaska peas, Potomac and Sebag potatoes, Virginia Savoy spinach, Temple and Pathfinder strawberries, Golden Cross Bantam corn, Marion Market and Wisconsin Bullhead cabbages, Margrobe Rutgers and Pan America tomatoes, with guidance on obtaining more information from the University of Maryland. A unique egg from a Leghorn hen near Utica drew attention, while a new testing machine dramatically reduces anti aircraft shell fuse rejections, nearly eliminating dud shells.
