on DAIRY farm with to 10 COWS per will be Just
as busy on farm with Is to Is COWS per man. The

producing milk Reducing costs per unit puts the
farm operator i'll a stronger competitive position.
If more crop land cannot be bought perhaps it can
be rented. Another plan is to check means by which
crop production present acreage can be increased
Ways to do this include: the of lime and fertilizer
winter cover crops; higher yielding varieties double
cropping; drainage and terracing.
Another step toward efficiency is to install modern
equipment which enables one person to produce more

lowered when each machine is used proftably for as
many hours as possible.

but necessary means for comparing qualities of
the meat animals in a market or for comparing
the animals in one market with those offered for
sale in another market. However, grading is not
an exact science because it depends to quite an
extent on the judgment of the person doing the
buying or selling. Grades are standards which
take into consideration the sex, weight, quality,
conformation and finish of animals.
Now, let's have look at price. Price is not a
factor in determining grade. Just because some
animals are in a higher grade does not mean that
they atlUdys will sell for higher price than ami
mails in lower grade. For example, it happens
at times that medium grade of cattle sells for as
much more than good grade Such a cond-
ton may come about when there is a heavy de-
mand for, but only light supply of, medium
CATTLE while on the same day a big supply and
light demand of good grade cattle will not bring
so high price.
The same situation may exist in the case of
lambs. In communities where racial customs
affect eating habits, there are times when car
cases of lightweight, thin lean lambs sell for as
much as the fat, well finished, choice type Again
the law of supply and demand is in action.
Always remember that price and grade are
two different things. Try to think of each sep
arately, and we believe you will have a much
clearer and truer picture of grading and market
ing of livestock.

DELINQUENCY
Joseph Errigo Urges Schools
and Church To Take
More Active Part
CHILDREN NEGLECTED

Joseph Errigo, district governor,
and Charles Stab, Jr., cabinet
secretary-treasurer, both of Will
mington were guests of the Smyr-
ma Lions Club on Monday night.
This was the first official visit of
the district governor to the local
club. He urged attendance at the
district conference to be held in
Washington in May and the inter-
national conference at San Fran
cisco in July Speaking on the
subject of Juvenile delinquency,
which is being considered by Lions
International, Mr.. Errigo said it is
a serious problem and that we are
apt to look at it improperly. In
his opinion the problem should be
solved at the source, not with
building institutions to hold the
boys and girls. He cited the home
as the original source, and the
church and school as next. Too
little has been done in the homes,
churches, and schools for the boys
and girls, he stated. The training
should begin when the child is
born; if the family succeeds in its
early training the church and
school then have something with
which to work. 1t is too late to
begin in the teens. Churches often
stress social activities for adults
and neglect the growing child, he
said, and emphasize the social side
to the detriment of the religious.
When God is driven out of the
schools problems arise; if children
spend twelve years of their lives
without any reference to God they
conclude that God is not important.
The part the Lions can play in this
problem is that of fathers, MEM
bers of families, and members of
churches. He urged the Lions to
take an active part in family life
for the preservation of the Ameri-
can home. eff each one takes care
of his own niche the world will be
a better place." he said. Improve
that part of the world in which you
live and the net result will be an

was made by Richard Price. and

DIAGNOSIS OF ILLS

In resume of 1916 Mayor Wal
lace Woodford, Dover, addressing
the Smyrna Rotary Club Thursday
night at The Wayside Inn, stated
that after a year of turmoil and
strife a complete diagnosis of the
worlds ills should be made in or
der that treatment" might be
prescribed. Urging all to think
right, act right and to become
builders of good will for the fu-
ture, he stressed the importance of
developing character that will be
held in high esteem by others, to
have ideals that are developed
from faith, to encourage fellowship
among nations. He urged the pro-
motion of security for all, faith in
God and stressing His sovereignty
to suppress the ills of the world
today. William e. Matthews, Jr.,
responded. Harley Bodley was

sented the speaker. The Everhart
