Abstract: Provided are improved agricultural processes for the improved cultivation of rice wherein the crops are treated to control undesired vegetative growth using a plant treatment composition comprising both halosulfuron and thifensulfuron to provide improved herbicidal efficacy against Heteranthera limosa, commonly referred to as “duck salad”. Also provided are compositions useful in the improved agricultural processes, as well as herbicidal treatment regimens. Unexpectedly high rates of efficacy against Heteranthera limosa, amongst rice plant in rice crops are disclosed.

Abstract: Improved agricultural processes for the controlled cultivation of crops are disclosed. In one aspect, crops of different types, namely that is to say crops grown from seeds, plants or cultivars having resistance to two (or more) different classes of herbicides, are treated to control undesired vegetative growth using a single class of herbicides.

Abstract: A multipurpose, multisectional mat for a child's use in resting, sitting, lying, reading and like activities comprising multiple articulated sections interconnected to form a mat which when flat provides a continuous resting surface formed by edge-to-edge abutting sections to accommodate a recumbent child and which when folded with the sections abutted face-to-face will provide a child's seat or table, each section comprising a generally rectangular soft cushion pad of substantial thickness and resilience and a fabric cover covering the pad, the fabric being locally continued beyond the pads alternately high and low and joined there as a hinge between adjacent pads for edge-to-edge or face-to-face orientation.

Abstract: Trading cards are made interactive with the user by concealing under a coating the secondary indicia portion of an image comprising both primary and secondary indicia, and selectively altering the coating to reveal the secondary indicia in the presence of the primary indicia to complete the image. A thermochromic coating material responsive to temperature change from ambient temperature, as by rubbing the coating with the fingers, enables the local exposure of the secondary indicia.

Abstract: A child's rest mat comprising a fabric covered foam pad having longitudinally spaced fold lines, and handles at opposed fold lines in the folded condition of the mat, the handles having interlocking tabs to maintain the mat folded for carrying.

Abstract: The problem of shifting of the bridle connection to the frame members in a stunt kite which impairs control is obviated by a quickly assemblable anchor means which comprises a fold-over tab which adheres to itself and to the member about which it is folded and provides an opening to which the bridle may be tied.

Abstract: Kite frame rod anchoring structure for quick and effective mounting of kite frame rods to the kite sail comprising a tough, flexible web adhered to the kite sail and locally slit and free of sail securement to define a flexible pocket into which the frame rod ends are mounted.
