A 1927 Western Newspaper Union note suggests using soaked coarse sponge as soil for decorative plants.

Seeds vary with taste, with golden millet and creeping bent grass noted for quick, hardy growth.

J L Edmonds of the University of Illinois urges adoption of a definite feeding plan to cut farm costs and boost profits. He favors legume hays like clover and alfalfa with 1 3 to 1 2 of carbohydrate roughage, notes oats straw and corn stover as seasonal supplements, and stresses not overfeeding legume hay. Sweet clover pasture plus bluegrass sod provide steady feed, especially when market grain prices are low, reducing farm power costs and helping grain prices stay buoyant.
The article advises using alfalfa or clover hay, bean straw and roots as primary feeds for breeding ewes in winter. With ample forage, ewes stay in good condition and require no grain until lambing approaches. When forage is scarce, add corn stover, straw, and protein rich grains like oats, with gluten mixed into silage or chopped roots.
Agricultural notes advise cattle not to be slaughtered within 24 hours of feeding, emphasize fresh water, and proper breeding for beef. Hog pasture quality matters, poultry molt patterns affect egg yield, and shellfish season rules limit hunting shorebirds under the migratory bird treaty act.
