Hydroelectric Units Offer Rural Power From Streams
Despite utilities electrifying Tu tal America many farms lie beyond lines. Readers learn how small hydro units powered by streams can supply 0.5 to 10 kilowatts at low cost. An eight foot head suffices for 0.5 to 5 kilowatts, with flows ranging from 68 to 190 cfm per minute.
Fungicides Tested By Vegetable Mice In Lily Scale Study
USDA researchers at Beltsville test various fungicides on Easter lily scales to combat scale rot. The scales from a single bulb are genetically uniform, 40 to 60 in number, and resemble tiny china. The method allows year round testing, simple equipment, and readings by appearance on the smooth nearly white scales.
