State Home Demonstration
Council Names Chairman

Mrs. John S. Farrow, Magnolia,
president of the Delaware Home
Demonstration Council, this week
announced the appointment of
chairmen for the 1852 year. These
state chairmen organize programs
in their fields, and carry them out
through county and local club
chairmen.
A new position this year, that of
state family life chairman, is filled
by Mrs. Jonothan S. Willis, Lynch

more emphasis on family life stud
les and improvement was endorsed
by the National Home Demonstra-

at Newark. The tree is a metas-
quota (Metasequoia stryptoboides) /,
a puzzler in the botanical family
tree.
Professor E. P. Brasher, chair
man of the horticulture department
received the tree from Mr.. ]. S.
Bennett, of Wilmington. The Ben
netts had received the tree, one of
a group, grown at Yale University.
Yale, in turn had gotten the seeds
from China, where the tree was
'rediscovered" in 1916 by a Chinese
university explorer.
Professor l.. r. Detjen, of the
horticulture department, says the
tree is a forefather of our redwoods
and sequoias of the west coast. Up
until 1916, botanists knew it exist
ed in fossil form, but didn't know
it was still to be found in living
form. Even though closely relat-
ed to the redwoods and sequoias,
the tree resembles our own east
ern bald cypress in the manner in
which it sheds it leaves and twigs.
The trees grown from the seeds
given to Yale are being grown at
various places along the Eastern
seaboard, in order to find out if
the tree will thrive in this climate.
If it will, says Detjen, there are
hopes of preventing the species
from becoming extinct.
1.-THE tree at our farm will be
carefully watched, and we will re-
port on it from time to time, to
Yale. If it does grow well in the
East, it could eventually be used
in ornamental paintings" Detjen
commented.

A comfortable and attractive
room of his own was the ambi-
ton of William Hawkins, Jr.,
18, of New Castle, so he became
interested in the All Home I'M
provement program. AS state
winner in the 1851 program he
was awarded a trip to Chicago
as guest of The Sears-Roebuck
Foundation. Beginning three
years ago with an unfinished
attic, he has now achieved that
ambition. Insulation, closets and
bookcases and a new asphalt
floor were the hardest part of
this project. Next the walls were
painted sage green and an assort-
ment of furniture repaired and
refnished. Prize money bought
a fuorescent lamp. Success slim
ulated William and he and his
brother finished the remainder
of the attic, creating storage
closets and a convenient sewing
room for their mother.

Hi-LO Club Means More Eggs
in Delaware

The Hi-Lo Egg Club of Delaware
is a new program working towards
higher egg production and lower
mortality in poultry fiocks. Pres
ent goals are $50 eggs per hen per
year, and Is percent or less NOR
tally. The club is sponsored by
the Delaware Poultry Improvement
Association and the Agricultural
Extension Service of the University
of Delaware.
1t is open to any Delaware resi-
dent owning so or more laying
hens. There will be a division for
meat strain breeds used for hatch
ing egg production; and one for
other breeds used primarily for
table egg production.
The contest will be handled
through the county Agricultural
Extension Offices. They will dis
tribute record sheets for monthly
reports, and keep the records after
they are sent in.
At the end of each year, certifi-
Gates will be given to all those
whose f1ocks average $50 eggs per
hen per year, and where the NOR
tality does not exceed Is percent,
TOP Flock" ineach county will be
named on the same basis, and a
"Top Flock" in each county will be
picked.
People who would like to enroll,
or find out more about the Hi-Lo
Egg Club, should contact their
county agricultural agent in New
ark, Georgetown, or Dover.

Winter Means Mastitis Season

Mastitis is year round menace
to dairy herds, but dairymen have
to be especially watchful for it
during the winter season.
John L. Crothers, Assistant
County Agricultural Agent, gives a
seven-point program for mastitis
prevention and control.
1. Use deep bedding to cut udder
injuries. Check your barn for high
door stills or short stalls.
2. Keep cows and barn clean;
drain muddy lots.
3. Use the strip cup daily to spot
infected cows. Always dispose of
badly infected cows.
A. Have milk samples from all
cows tested regularly. Samples
will be taken by the mastitis labor
atory fieldman upon request. The
strip cup often misses mastitis in
early stages or in light cases.
5. Diinfect milking equipment.
Healthy cows can easily pick up
mastitis germs from dirty equip
ment.
6. Do not buy infected animals.
Many fine dairy herds have been
ruined by infected animals brought
into a clean herd.
Finally, set up a program for
treating infected cows, with the
help of your Veterinarian, Croth-
ers advises, remembering that
treatment is not a cure-all. Treat
ed cows may become infected again
unless protected from mastitis in
fected animals.

Isicians :. and a caller in his

second-story hall with matched
flooring in the vicinity. Here is
Epperson's report of the outcome
1.-The chairman of the commit
tee stated later that they did SOL
emnly swear and pledge them
selves that there would be no
drinking or fighting in said hall.
If any window lights were shot
out or any bullet holes were put
i in the floor or ceiling, B. r. Dell
would be paid for the damage. He
was especially insistent about the
bullet holes in the floor, the rea-
son being, no doubt, because he
slept in the room below. With all
his confidence in the committee S
pledges. he engaged a room in the
hotel for the night!'
| "The dance turned out to be a
gala affair, with the guests riding
in as far as rs miles in buggies or
on horseback" Mr.. McNair tells,
"the ladies carrying their evening
gowns and curling irons in flour
sacks tied on behind their saddles.
Three barbecue pits were kept
going and a good time was had by
all. One precaution that the COM
mittee took which you will prob
ably not have to take at your
dance was in the form of a sign
which read, Please Check Gun
With Rest of Equipment" he
concludes.
