FARMERS PLAN PUR-
CHASE OF CATTLE
Pure Bred Stock To Come
From Wisconsin

Farmers who are interested in
purchasing dairy cattle from Wis
consin are requested by County
Agent r. 0. Bausman to meet with
the Milk Producers Association in
the Levy Court Room of the New
County Building, Wilmington, at
2 o'clock Saturday, January 10.
The meeting of the Middletown
Cow Testing Association held last
Saturday resulted in the farmers
agreeing to cooperate in the buy
ing of practically two carloads of
grade and pure bred Holstein and
Guernsey heifers and young bulls.
Due to the shortage of feed and
the low markets for milk in the
Middle West, good dairy cattle can
be bought at a very reasonable
price. This is an excellent oppor-
tunity for the farmers of New Cas-
tie County to place a good young
bull at the head of their herds or
add few young cows. The County
Agent is especially anxious to
place a couple of carloads of these
cattle in the northern part of the
county along with the Middletown
shipment.
If anyone is interested in good
cattle and cannot attend this meet,
ing, he should write or phone the
County Agent at Newark.

PRINCIPAL KOEHLER
ADDRESSES STUDENTS
In Chapel Exercises On Mon
day

Principal R. P. Koehler, of the
Newark Public Schools, addressed
the students of Delaware College
at chapel exercises on Monday,
discussing The Choosing of a Pro
fession. Mr.. Koehler told of his
college days when a committee Of
ohe students made a canvass of the
school to find out just how many
of the students knew what they in
tended doing when they got started
in their life work. The result
showed that at least S5 per centum
of the students were not decided
as to the life work they would take
up. He then said that there were
three main points to be considered
when a man chose his profession.
The first was to consider wheth-
er he could make enough money to
support himself and his potential
family comfortably. A man owes
it to himself and to society, to
make a comfortable living for him
self and his family. The second
consideration was to find out
whether any definite benefit would
accrue to society from his enter
! ing a particular profession. The
third element to be consider ed was
whether the man could derive any
enjoyment from the work he con-
templated taking up. A man can
do his best only when he derives
some enjoyment from the work he
! is doing.
