“These blades are ideal for
moving snow, sand, gravel, or dirt

houses and feed lots,” Moore said.

maneuverable in confined spaces,
they are rugged enough and

The blades are available in 42-

mount easily to most ATV models
that have a reverse gear and, after
their initial installation, they can
be mounted or detached in less
than a minute without tools.
There are three blade settings
straight or angled 18 degrees left
or right and the lift height is
adjustable up to 6 inches. The lift
handle is conveniently located and
secured by a wing nut for easy
handle removal. There are no
annoying cables or chains to
contend with.

Cure Sulfur Deficiency
COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Soil
low in sulfur poses a serious
problem for Maryland farmers. A
severe shortage can cut com yields
dramatically. And even a slight
deficiency can reduce the quality
of com used for forage.
But livestock farmers can
typically prevent a shortage in
fields where they spread manure,
says V. Allan Bandel, a fertilizer
specialist for The University of
Maryland Cooperative Extension
Service.
That’s because manure is sulfur
rich. Consider: Each ton of cattle
manure contains a pound of sulfur,
on the average and a single ton of
chicken manure averages nine
pounds of this protein-building
chemical. Most other kinds of
livestock manure contain .2 to two
pounds of sulfur per ton.
Sulfur deficiencies are most
likely on light, sandy soil like
those on Maryland’s Eastern Shore
as well as on farms throughout
the state where no livestock
manure is spread. Most sulfur-

nearly any stage of the crop.
Since the temporary tolerance is

deficient soils are low in organic
matter.
How can you spot a sulfur
problem? Look for a yellowing of
leaves, starting at the top of a
plant. Conversely, a nitrogen
deficiency reveals itself when
yellowing starts at the bottom of a
plant.
You can correct a sulfur shor
tage in com by applying 40 pounds
of sulfur per acre, says Bandei.
Then apply approximately 20
pounds of sulfur per acre in
following growing seasons.
You can also easily remedy the
problem with direct manure ap
plications. But to apply the correct
amounts of manure, you need to
test both your soil and the manure
that you will apply.
For a free manure test and a soil
test that’s accurate and modestly
priced, take advantage of the soil
testing laboratory at The
University of Maryland College
Park. Your county Extension
office will provide kits and printed
instructions.
