Maryland side Of Delmar was dark
ened. The Tenth Representative
District including Milford Neck of
Kent county is included in the Sus-
sex county defense program while
Maryland authorities cooperated in
blackening out lights on the south
ern side of the Delaware line.
Four thousand air raid wardens,

gram while state police went ON du-
ty along the highways of the coun-
ty. Two airplanes of the Civilian
Air Patrol, flying in bright NOON
light, spotted the county for viola
tons.
Only railroad signal lamps were
lighted Trains had their headlights

halted them and ordered the lights
turned off.

strength incendiary bomb set off as
part of the surprise blackout.
The all-elear signal was sounded
at 9:35 O'Clock after which war
dens, policemen and firemen started
making reports on the result of the
tests.
Mayor Evans pronounced the
hlackout most satisfactory and Goy-
ernor Bacon said that in his opin-
ion the test was 100 per cent as far
as he could observe.
Chief Warden w. Harold Brit
tingham of Lewes reported that the
test was successful there, despite
some confusion which resulted
whe nthe all-clear signal was
sounded five minutes too soon. This
caused residents to relight their
houses, but the warning signal
which sounded Immediately after
wards prompted them to turn lights
off again.
Observers in Lewes reported that
bright moonlight prevailed during
the blackout AS soon as the first
signal sounded on the main power
house siren and three auxiliary 81
rens with simultaneous blinking OF
street lights, alrplanes We're seen
flying over the town heading for, the
northern section of the county.
In Seaford Vaughn. A. Hastings
said that in that town. and in Blades
the trial was practically 100 per
cent effective. He added that in the
rural area about Seaford there were
several violations. Names of yio-
lators were reported to meeting

ter the biackout in the Hotel Sus-
sex. These will be warned, Mr..

Pasture Improvement
Discussed In Kent
tcontinusa IRON rlrss Pagel

forage crops, who will make GER
tain recommendation as to. grass
and clover mixtures and ,fertiliz-
ers to be applied on each farm
ON which demonstrations will be
conducted this year. The farms Sc
lected for this purpose will be those
on which there exists definite pas
ture problems, and whose owners
are very desirous to obtain a more
profitable stand of pasture grasses
and clovers for their dairy cattle
as means of producing more
milk on an economical basis.
Although this project has been
started on several farms in Kent
county, in all probability there are
other farmers who would like to
improve their pastures during the
coming year, so these farmers are
requested to contact the county
extension office within the next few
weeks and discuss this program.
For number of years there has
been shortage of desirable pas
ture crops in this county, so it is
very evident that more cOnsidera-
ton should be given to pasture
Improvement program, especially
now that the federal government is
requesting farmers to produce more
dairy products along with canning
crops, poultry and eggs, pork and
soy beans.
With reference to soy beans,
there is demand for an increased
production of vegetable oils, with
the result that many farmers are
planning to grow the yellow varie-
ties this year. Seed may be order
ed through the office of the Kent
County Agricultural Conservation
Association at $3.50 per bushel
cash, or $2.55 per bushel on a six
months note, and the federal gov
ernment has established a mini
mum price Of SLIGO per bushel for
the harvested crop. In addition to
their use for seed production, soy
beans are valuable also as hay
crop and for soil improvement if
plowed under just as the plants
come. into blossom.
