"Greener PASTURES" Starts IN April
The 1851 Greener Pastures pro-

Said Mitchell, Several of the
1850 entrants and many new farm
ers are taking this opportunity to
join a concentrated effort for bet

aware"
All farms will be visited at least
once during the pasture season.
The roughage program will be
evaluted, and suggestions made to
help improve present pasture pro-
grams.
The visits give the farmers an
opportunity to talk over, in the
field, problems that may we bother
ing them. Problems that came up
often last season were about fer
tilization, seeding mixtures and
methods of seeding, supplementary
pastures, rotation grazing, and
weed control.
Farmers do not have to have
an established pasture program, or
be using any particular kind of
pasture to enter this years Green

''The judges are interested in help
ing you develop sound roughage
program that will make milk and
livestock production more profit

Mastitis Germs Long Lived

Edward S. Biddle, bacteriologist
for the Delaware State Board of
Agriculture, reports that expert
ments done in Great Britain reveal
that any object in barn is a possi-
BILE hide-out for bovine mastitis
germs. For instance, streptococcus
germs may live on any object in
the barn for as long as twenty
days and for more than twenty-six
days on a cows hide. These germs
were found to live in hay for twen-
ty days, in bucket for eight days,
on broom handle for five days, on
floors for four days and on rubber
boots for at least four days. Previ-
ously materials support germ life
longer, sometimes for two months,
under favorable conditions.
The results of these experiments
re-emphasize the Importance of
sanitation and good management
in the control of mastitis in Della
ware.

was feared Hill Prince would be

$4,000 Fee Puts Hill Prince Worlds Richest Race Saturday
Worsham' S Victory
EnIivens Golf Tour;
Tucson Open Next
BY the Associated Press


PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 29.-LeW
Worsham and his reclaimed fame
brought refreshing note to the
tournament golf scene today.
The 33-year-old professional
from Oakmont, Pa, who won the
United States Open crown in 1947,
and has not been in the top 10
money winners since, captured the
$4,000 Phoenix Open yesterday
and led the links gypsies on to the
next event on the tournament
trail-the $4,000 Tucson Open,
starting Thursday.
Worsham. former Washington
pro, finished the 72-hole stretch
with a wobbly 10 and a total
score of 272, IL strokes under par
II for the Phoenix Country Club.
1t was good enough to beat out
veteran Lawson Little, who fin
ished with a So for 273, and two
other dangerous rivals, Chick Har-
bert and Jim Terrier, who tied
at 274.
Worsham actually won the fix
ture in the third round Saturday
with a competitive course record
Of SO, but he had to make it stick
in the final 18-hole battle yester-
day, and he could have missed a
clear title to the $4,000 top money
on his final stroke.
Lew Steady in Crisis.
Worsham stared at 8 feet of
space separating the cup and the
ball. He had to sink it for the
victory. A tremendous gallery
waited with the usual awful tense
ness as he lined up the putt.
Then, playing like the Worsham
who whipped the great Sam Snead
in playoff for the National Open
championship at the st. Louis
Country Club nearly four years
ago. he hit the ball firmly and it
rolled toward the cup and dis
appeared inside.
That was the grand climax of
the 1851 Phoenix Open, and erased
such mistakes as 2 over par s
on the ninth hole, a missed shot
on the 18th, 3-putt green on
the 18th and a near collapse on
the final hole.
Worsham started the round with
a 2-stroke lead over Lloyd Man
grum and just three ahead of Lit
tie, Harbert and Smiley Quick.
Mangraum was under par on
the first nine, but as he put it
later, Il ran out of novocain on
the back nine" He was not joking.
Each day he took a generous shot
of the stuff to ease the pain of
muscle injury in his back. He
wound up with 70 and a total of
PIT. Mangrum plans to play at
Tucson, but drop out of the tour
for couple of weeks after that.
Little Is His Old Self.
Calm. seasoned Little, playing
back to his old championship
form for the full four rounds, kept
in the running, and Harbert was
still dangerous man to the end.
Quick fell back to a 70 and 278.
Jimmy Clark. a promising young
pro from Laguna Beach. Calf,
shot So for 275. one stroke ahead
of Dutch Harrison and two ahead
of Mangrum and Johnny Bulla.
