ASK DELAY FOR
DAIRY RULES
Contend Installation of Re-

NEARBY STATES ACT

The House last week by unan-
imous vote adopted resolution Of
fered by Representative Pryor, in
tended to try to get an extension
of tim for dairymen of this State
in putting into effect a ruling of
State Boards of Health of neigh
boring States relative to the arti-
fetal cooling of milk before ship
ping from this State. The resolu-
tion directs the Speaker to com
municate with the large buyers of
milk in neighboring States and the
Boards of Health of those States
requesting that the putting into eff
feet of the rule as to cooling milk
be postponed. Mr.. Pryor is urging
adoption of the resolution said that
new regulations governing the milk
business had been put into effect
from year to year at considerable
cost to the producer and that the
proposed new rule could not be
stood financially by many farmers
Representative Price said it SEEM
ed to be a move to crowd out the
small producer. The resolution as
adopted follows: Whereas, there
has been constantly increasing
number of rules and regulations
imposed on the producers of milk
in this State by the large purchas-
ers of milk as well as by State
Board of Health, all of which have
been accepted by the milk produc-
has been made by the State Board
of Health of neighboring States
necessitating the preceding of
milk which will require natural or
artificial refrigeration, which i'm
poses on the milk producer a finan-
cial burden, which because of the
present low price of milk, they can
not assume; and Whereas, because
this situation most vitally affects
the welfare of our people, prompt
action should be taken to safeguard
their well being; now therefore Be
It Resolved that the Speaker of the
House be and he is hereby author
lied and directed to communicate
with large milk purchasers and the
Boards of Health of neighboring
States and ascertain from said pur-
chasers, and said Boards of Health
the possibility of postponing until
more propitious time the effective
date Of any rulings which will, in
their effect, cause additional and
heavy unnecessary burdens to be
placed on our milk producers. The
Speaker will upon receipt of any
communications in answer to this,
cause the contents thereof to be
made known to the House of Rep
resentatives.

SCHOOL BOND
BILL IN SENATE
House Passes Measure TO Re-
deem $46S, ,577 Issues and
Pay Interest
WOULD PREVENT TAX

Appropriations totaling S468,-
577.18 would be authorized under
the provisions of a bill passed by
the House last week and went to
the Senate. This sum is intended
to pay off the bonds in all the
school districts of the State that
mature during the next biennium
and also to pay the interest on
other school building bonds. The
money to meet this appropriation
would be taken from the school
funds. The bill was introduced by
Representative Cleaver who called
it up for final action. 1t received
the unanimous approval of the 80
members present. To redeem
school building bonds which ma
ture during the next two years,
$135, ,506.50 is provided in the bill
for the year 1933-1934, and for a
similar purpose during the year
1934-1935, $116, ,232 would be ap-
propriated. To meet the interest
charge, S111,75783 would be ap-
propriated for the year 1933-1934
and, for the following year, $1O5,-
080.85 in the bill These appropri-
ations total $251, 1850 to pay off
the bonds and S216, ,s3S.68 to pay
the interest charges, making a
grand total of $46S,571.1S. The
State for several years has been as
suming payment of school bonds
but this will be the first time the
State has paid the interest charges
on bonds not yet matured. BY the
States assumption of this burden,
the school districts are relieved of
all tax assessments to meet the in
terest charges on their bonds and
the refunding of such bonds.

KENT HENS IN
EGG CONTEST
25,330 Birds Figure In Egg
Records Produced in Kent
County Last Year
RUSSELL e. WILSON AIDS

AS one of the poultry improve
ment projects in this state several
poultry raisers have been cooperat-
ing with the extension service of
the University of Delaware for the
past eight years in keeping records
of the egg production of their
fiocks in an effort to learn more
about how to place the poultry in
dustry on a more profitable basis
in this section of the country This
project has been carried on by the
use of poultry calendars which
have been prepared each year by
the extension service and furnish
ed free of charge to those poultry
men who have agreed to keep their
egg production records and to send
in their reports each month to H.
S. Palmer, extension poultryman
of the University of Delaware. A
summarized report of these egg
records has been prepared each
month by the poultry specialist for
mailing to each cooperator in the
state through the offices of the
county agents. Seventy-one Of the
1932-1933 poultry calendars have
been distributed in Kent county
through the Office of County Agent
Russell E. Wilson, and on Novem-
Der 1 of last year when the egg
records for this year started, there
were 1925 pullets, 1854 hens, and
1850 pullets and hens running to-
gether in mixed fiocks, or a total
of 25, $50 birds included in this pro-
ject. In the January report Of the
Delaware farm egg record project,
which was prepared by the exten-
sion poultryman, the production
records from 23,041 pullets, 1926
hens and 1876 birds in mixed
fiocks were Incorporated represent
ing 140 farms throughout the state.
The pullets laid on the average
1872 eggs, and the hens produced
rs eggs each, while the mixed
fiocks consisting Of pullets and
hens laid on the average 1912 eggs
per bird. In addition to the statis-
tical information in regard to egg
production, the January report also
contained some suggestions rela-
tive to a ration for growing chicks
and the recommendations for feed
ing both the mash and grain mix
lures. In reference to the general
outlook for the poultry industry,
the poultrymen may expect lower
egg prices during the fall Of 1888,
according to the Bureau Of Agri-
cultural Economics of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
which also states that the general
level Of prices for farm products in
lower this year than in 1882. Egg
prices, however, during the late
winter and early spring will not be
depressed by large storage stocks
of shell eggs as was the case last
March. The combination Of mod
crate production and small storage
stocks which resulted in the rela-
lively high egg prices in the fall
and winter Of 1932-1933 probably
win not be repeated this coming
fall and winter, according to the
predictions in the government re-
ports. More hens on farms and
heavier spring hatchings in pros
pect may be expected to result in
increased marketing of poultry
during the coming year in all sec
tions Of the country.
