1, 1914, he will be able to show a
balance on the right side Of the
ledger. The value Of the crops
will approximate $11, 900.
The college has at the model farm
one Of the best herds of cattle in the
whole region. Two cows and a
heifer were sold in May for $4,000
and sent to the new owner in South
ern California; a yearling heifer
and an eight-year-old COW were
sold to Michigan for $500, and the
farm has refused $500 for a bull
calf that is to head the herd. The
present herd bull is worth from
$4,000 to $2500.
All of these cattle are Guernseys.
A Holstein cow Of the herd has the
best official milk and butter record
on the peninsula, having produced
last year 2O,167 pounds Of milk,
from which were made 910 pounds
of butter.
1t is worthy Of mention right
here that the cattle Of the Delaware
Peninsula below the New Castle
grass land were until recently lit
tie too much Of the scrub order to
promise much profit. When DR..
Hayward succeeds in giving good
cattle to the lower Peninsula, he
will be entitled to very high praise.
The farm orchards will yield this
year about 1000 baskets Of peaches.
The apples are not yet in consider
able bearing, but there was a large
yield Of cherries and plums. The
farm has mare than 500 varieties of
fruit. Varieties of wheat several
years under experiment at the farm
and distributed to farmers are re-
ported as yielding from five to ten
bushels per acre over old varieties.
AS the result Of successful expert
ments at the farm many farmers
are increasing their area of alfalfa.

BOOST ARTICLE
FOR FARM
From Philadelphia Record

Delaware is going to grow rich
by the "new agriculture and the
State will owe this source Of wealth
very largely to the Delaware Col
lege Agricultural Experiment Sta
tiOn.
Time was when the agricultural
courses at Delaware College attract
ed only two or three students or, at
most, eight or ten, and the greater
part Of them for only few weeks
in each year. Now DR.. Harry Hay
ward, dean and director of the Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station,
says that nearly half last year s
freshman class elected one or the
other of two agricultural courses
and he looks confidently forward to
the time when fully half the stu
dent body will elect these courses.
There is room, he declares, for a
graduate in agriculture on each
farm in Delaware, and he adds that
graduate in agriculture are equal
the financial possibilities of the
to those of men in almost any other
profession. AS to the possibilities
of useful service, the graduate in
agriculture, thinks DR.. Hayward,
has a field unequaled by any other.
It has taken Delaware College
and it's Agricultural Experiment
Station almost half a century to
rouse the State to the Importance OF
scientific agriculture, to attract stu
dents TO the agricultural courses
and to conciliate the enthusiastic
goodwill of the rural population.
All these things have at length been
done, however, and Delaware Col
lege and its Experiment Station do
not intend to let the good work
languish
The story Of Delaware College
has been told; that Of the Agricul-
tural Station is worth telling. The
two institutions are in a sense one,
but the Experiment Station, while
it's experts aid in actual work OF
teaching the students, has a special
and peculiar relation to the agri-
culture Of the State. It's work is
much more than experimental,
much wider than that of the labor
atory or even that of the model
farm administered by the station
and used as piece of apparatus in
the instruction of youth.
The Agricultural Experiment
Station goes right out to the farm
ers in all parts Of the State. All
over the State, from the hills OF
White Clay Greek Hundred, just
under the northern arc which di-
vides Delaware from Pennsylvania,
TO Selbyville in level, sandy Sus-
sex on the edge of Maryland, are
groups Of farmers and gardeners

who cooperate with the Expert
ment Station in the experimental
study of agronomy, horticulture,
plant pathology, and soil bacteriol-
ogy. The agents of the Expert
ment Station are constantly going
to and fro in Delaware to speak at
public meetings Of farmers, to ex-
anime interesting local experiments,
to advise as to the problems of in
dividual farmers. If farmer or a
gardener wishes advice as to plant
diseases, the adaptibility of soil to
a particular crop, the value of a
new fruit, the probable cause Of an
animals death, he writes or comes
to the Agricultural Experiment
Station for advice.
Nobody in Delaware now laughs
at book farming; all the farmers
are getting to be book farmers, and
some Of the young graduates in ag-
riculture are proving how excellent
a thing is scientific knowledge.
DR.. Hayward and his staff of ex-
perts, stenographer and a secre-
tary number IA. The income of the
station for the year 1913-14 was
just short of $41, 300, of which
$450O was given by the State for
Agricultural Extension work, and
nearly $4,000 came from the sale
Of crops grown on the experimental
farm.
The present Congress passed a
bill providing an annual appropria-
ton of $4,000 to each State in aid
of agricultural extension, with an
increase each year provided the
State itself appropriates an amount
for the same work equal to such in
crease. If Delaware meets the pro-
visions of this act the station will
have by 1922, $28,600 yearly for
agricultural extension work.
One of the most interesting parts
the work done by the Experiment
Station is that carried on at the
model farm, which the State bought
and equipped some years ago at
cost of 100000. The farm is own
ed by the State. Those who are ac-
quainted from Of old with Newark
remember when the model farm
was the home Of the Russell family.
1t lies just below the Newark sta
tion Of the Pennsylvania road, and
may be seen on the left by persons
journeying from Philadelphia to
Baltimore and Washington.
It's main building is rather tall
and substantial brick structure OF
the kind that impressionable folk
would call mansion. Barns, out
houses, silos and the like of modern
structures have been added by the
State and orchards have been set
out. The farm is an object lesson
in highly skilled agriculture, and
although it is not conducted pri-
marily for gain the director believes
that when all the returns are IN for
the year from July !, 1913, to July
