	Eastern Ridges and Lowlands - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the U.S. state of Wisconsin, the Eastern Ridges and Lowlands is a geographical region in the eastern part of the state, between the Bay of Green Bay in the north and the state border with Illinois border in the south.
		The Eastern Ridges and Lowlands region is primarily a plain with elevations between 700 and 900 feet above sea level, but the region slopes enough to form two broad ridges running from north to south that exceed 1,000 feet above sea level in some places.
		Between the two ridges is a lowland carved out by the glaciers of the last ice age.

		The area is characterized by rocky outcroppings and numerous small caves, as well as sharp and frequent changes in altitude.
		Before the last ice age, most of the land in the northern United States was similar to the land of today’s Western Upland, with rugged ridges and valleys.
		Farmland is prevalent in the Western Upland anywhere where the slope of the land is gradual enough to permit it, generally on the ridge tops and the valley bottoms.

		At least for the eastern side of the Near East, the spread of agriculture was closely related to the expansion of animal husbandry and the development of patterns of seasonal transhumance.

		The Lake Superior lowland, once a glacial lake bed, is now a level to gently rolling red clay plain along Lake Superior in the northwestern corner of the state.
		By contrast, the eastern ridges and lowlands region has low relief because of recent glaciation, but occasional moraines of up to 100 m (300 ft) mark places where glacial lobes stopped prior to withdrawal.

		Eastern Cuba is both the most rugged area of Cuba and the oldest core region in the Caribbean.
		The indigenous population clustered mainly in the eastern central portions of the island and resided in straw and palm-thatched dwellings called bohíos, a term still used today to describe small huts and shacks in the Cuban countryside.
		If eastern Cuba possessed the economic and political clout of the island during the first half of the sixteenth century, changing political and economic winds moved westward during the rest of the century.

	Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin: Early History
		This introduction is condensed from a draft of an unpublished history of the western townships of Fond du Lac County.

		At Aberdeen, UI Extension potato pathologist Jeff Miller and postdoctoral fellow Lyndon Porter are evaluating resistance to the fungicide mefenoxam in the pink rot fungus, Phytophthora erythroseptica.
		Tests they have conducted in the past three years indicate that more than 75 percent of this fungus' "isolates" from infected eastern Idaho tubers are already moderately resistant to mefenoxam, a chemical that's intended to control the disease.
		Pink rot struck both eastern Idaho and Magic Valley potato fields in 2003, but growers held storage losses to a minimum by detecting the disease early, keeping most infected lots out of storage, and managing their storages carefully.
