BETTER SHEEP FARMERS HOPE
Maryland Farm Bureau and Agent
Plan Campaigns for Profits

County Farm Bureau officials and
County Agent Horace B. Derrick have
begun a campaign to improve the
sheep-raising industry in Kent county,
Maryland, to increase the annual rev.
enue to the farmer. 1t has been es-
timated that the annual revenue from
wool and lambs is $4,000, and the Of
ficials believe this amount can be
greatly increased by judicious care in
raising the right kind of stock and in
the preparation Of the product for Sc
lected markets.
The total number Of sheep on the
farms in the county is 5000, and the
annual crop Of wool is 36,327 pounds.
The total income from lambs is esti-
mated at $65,000.
Farm Bureau officials believe this
income can be greatly increased every
year through the purchase Of pure
bred rams, proper care Of lambs and
the correct wrapping of fleece.
One Of the largest sheep raisers in
the county reports that he saved last
year two cents a pound on wool that
is properly prepared for market, which
preparation consists Of wrapping the
fleece in paper wool twin that will
wash out in the securing process, and
the use of the kind of branding paint
that will easily wash out. Most of the
growers on the Shore farms are ac-
customed to use twine made Of iute,
hemp or other fabrics, which affects
the sale Of the product.
Heretofore less attention has been
paid to the sheep raising industry on
the farms of the county, but care
full study Of conditions has convinced
Farm Bureau officials that it may be
made much more profitable than at
present, and an intensive drive will be
made in that direction.
The crop of lambs in the county Is
reported to be large this year, but
lcold weather is retarding growth.

past week the professor has received
many messages wishing him success
in his new field of labor. Prof. Thorn
burgh retired from the superintend-
ency Of the local schools on the first
of last July when the present Super
intendent, Prof. A. J. Peters assumed
charge. His departure from the local
scholastic field was regretted by many
persons who were of the opinion that
his activities there served to raise the
standard of education in the local
schools. 1t was during his term of
office that the new school building
was constructed and many new pro-
gressive features introduced in the
local schools. AS far as could be
learned from the Seaford authorities,
Prof. Thornburgh was the unanimous
choice of the school board there, al
though it is generally understood that
he did not file a formal application
for the position.

FARMERS IN LOWER KENT To
CULTIVATE STRAWBERRIES
MOVEMENT INAUGURATED AT
HARRINGTON TO SPECIALIZE
Men Back of Movement in Southwest
ern Part of the County Feel Con-
fident of Profitable Industry

Over fifty farmers representing the
Southwestern part of Kent County at
tended a meeting at Harrington on
Monday evening to discuss the pros
poets for growing strawberries on a
commercial scale in that area. Inter
est in this project is being promoted
by the Harrington Chamber Of Com
merce in cooperation with the Amer
ican Express Company and several of
the most influential farmers of that
community and every effort is being
put forth to make this plan a success.
Assistance is also being given by the
Agricultural Extension Department of
the University of Delaware in devel-
oping this program and the meeting
on Monday evening was addressed by
Dean G. A. McCue and Kent County
Agent Russell E. Wilson. Walter J.
Paskey, one of the most successful
strawberry growers in that section of
the county, presided at this meeting,
and before introducing Dean McCue
and County Agent Wilson, called upon
H. G. Miller, representative of the Ex-
press Company at Harrington, for
few remarks concerning the possibil-
tiles for strawberry growing in that
area, and the manner in which the
Express Company will assist the
farmers in the marketing of their
crop.
In discussing the growing Of straw
berries commercially, Dean McCue
emphasized the use of only few var
ieties, and to select those which are
adapted to that particular area. The
subject Of grading and packing was
also considered at length and some
very profitable discussions resulted
from the different suggestions offered
by the various speakers and ggrowers
present.
County Agent Wilson mentioned the
Importance of farmers practicing good
marketing methods with all Of their
crops, and especially urged that the
strawberry growers to follow this
practice, and to make use of the mar
ket news service being rendered by
the Bureau of Markets of the State
Board Of Agriculture. The growers
were also advised as to the attitude
which they should assume in going
into the strawberry business for the
first time and to make certain they
selected the right varieties, and un-
derstood the general cultural practic-
es for successful production.
A special committee consisting of
Millard Fitzgerald, Walter J. Paskey,
Wilbur Jacobs, DR.. w. T. Chapman
and H. A. Kent, representing the
Harrington Chamber of Commerce and
he farmers of that area, has been APP
pointed to work in cooperation with
the agricultural organizations in the
county in promoting this project as a
direct means of bringing more rev
enue to the farmers of that commun-
5iy, and thereby making it a more
section in every way.
Another meeting of the farmers in
that part Of the county has been call
ed for Friday evening Of this week, at
which time more detailed plans will be
presented for putting this program
ntoe fleet this coming season. 1t is
expected that a large number of .
growers will be present, as this par
ticular crop is making an attractive
appeal to the farmers Of that COM
nunity.

POULTRY RAISING IN STATE
Government Extension Department
Gives Out Some Helpful Advice

Gives Out Some Helpful Advice
A supply of literature pertaining to
fruit growing and poultry raising in
Delaware has been received recently
at the office of County Agent Russell
z. Wilson at Dover, for free distribu-
ton to those who are interested in
these subjects. Many of these circu
lars and bulletins have been nailed to
the fruit and poultry farmers in the
county, but in all probability, there
are some farmers who have not re
ceived this literature, and these peo-
pie are being requested to apply at
the County Agents Office for copies
of these publications if they are inter
ested in obtaining this information.
Extension Circular No. II, "Fruit
Crop Protection for 1926" published
in February Of this year by the School
Of Agriculture Of the University Of
Delaware, contains information of
special interest to the apple, peach,
and grape growers, as the spray
schedule for each of these crops is
given in detail. This publication also
contains some valuable data on the
preparation of home made sprays and
how they should be used in connection
with the general spray program.
Not only fruit growers, but other
farmers in the county may be inter
ested in receiving a copy of recent
bulletin published by the State Board
Of Agriculture, entitled, "Plant Dis
ease Survey of Economic Crops in
Delaware during 1926" which was
prepared by DR.. J. F. Adams, Plant
Pathologist of the State Board of
Agriculture and the University of
Delaware, cooperating with the z. S.
Department of Agriculture at Wash
ington.
The various plant diseases are dis
cussed under such groups as "Orchard
and Small Fruits" "Field and Veg
etable Crops" Cereal and Forage
Crops" and "Ornamentals." This re-
port presents the relative Importance
and prevalence Of plant diseases in
this State during the past year, and
the information contained therein is
the result of personal observations of
crop conditions in the field and in
quiries on diseased specimens sub
mitted for laboratory Identification
The poultry raisers in the County
may be interested to learn of several
publications which are available on
the subject of poultry production un-
der Delaware conditions. H. S. Pal
mer, Extension Poultryman of the
University of Delaware, has prepared
a number of mimeographed circulars
on each Of the following subjects:
"Culling for Egg Production" "Selec-
ton Of Breeders and Hatching Eggs"
Natural Incubation and Brooding,"
Artificial Incubation and Brooding,"
and Feeding the Chicks"
In addition to the above mentioned |
literature, there are available also at
the County Agents Office in Dover,
copies of Feeding for High Egg Pro
duction," by VIM. Johnstone of Toms
River, New Jersey; and the Selection
Of Breeders for Egg Production" by
Prof. James E. Rice Of Cornell Uni
versity. Both Of these publications,
as well as those prepared by Mr.. Pal
mer, are well worth reading, and
should be in the hands of every poul-
try raiser who is in the business for
the most economical returns from his
flock.
