Hopp Farm yields 72 bushels corn per acre on ridge rows
Dr Henry Hopp of Yellow Springs conducted field trials with U S soil conservation service scientists showing 72 bushels per acre on ridge row plantings. High nitrogen fertilizer and ridge construction improved soil retention and water infiltration, yielding far above Maryland averages. Sprays after emergence reduced weed competition but ridging remained the key to the record yield.

Tells How Household Pests Can Be Controlled
Extension entomologist at the University of Maryland explains cockroaches include the American, German, and banded roaches that infest kitchens and basements and spread to other areas. Begin with thorough cleaning of kitchens and pantries, remove movable shelves and items, and seal cracks where roaches hide. Treat with the insecticide chlordan after clearing items from cabinets and shelves to target egg hiding spots.
