Farmers Get Less
Of Food Dollar

To what extent is the farmer
responsible for high food costs? -?
Quoting the following figures from
the Bureau of Agricultural Eco
romics in Washington, County
Agent William H. Henderson has
this to say about this question:
"The farmers share of each con-
sumner dollar spent for food went
down from 81 cents in April Of this
year, to 49 cents in May and June.
Prices received by farmers declined
in this period, while marketing
costs went up. The other 81 cents
of each consumer dollar spent for
food goes to pay marketing agen-
cies.
The farmers share is largest for
meat products, and the smallest
for grain products In May of this
year, the farmer received 81 cents
of each food dollar for meat, 66
cents of the dollar spent for pOul-
try and eggs. and 81 cents of each
dollar spent for dairy products.
For fruit and vegetables, the far
mers share is only 33 cents. and for
grain and cereal products it is only
q cents. The share that goes to the
middleman is 33 cents for meat. 81
for poultry and eggs, 46 for dairy
products, 81 for fruits and vege-
tables, and 73 for grain products"

Alfalfa Planting Time
In Diamond State

Alfalfa is an important Delaware
hay crop, say agrOnOmists at the
University of Delaware. When fall
planting time comes, questions on
seed quality and variety come up.
A few pointers in getting a good,
lOng-lived stand are:
l. Use Buffalo, the new wilt re-
sistant variety, or common alfalfa
seed grown in Utah, Idaho, Mon
tana, Kansas, or other states with
equally severe winters. Grimm and
Canadian varieties will grow well,
but usually are not worth the diff
ferences in price.
2. Do not use Arizona common,
or other nOn-hardy strains from
southern states.
). Do not use alfalfa seed inn
ported from southern countries. 1t
will not live over Delaware win
ters satisfactorily. You can tell
such seed by the 10 percent of red
or red-Orange dyed seed required
by law.
c. E. Phillips, agronomist with
the agricultural extension service,
says to insist on knowing where
your alfalfa seed comes from, and
what variety it is. Buying good
seed is the most important part Of
raising a good crop.
Milford chronicle., 1951-08-31
Farm Filters

Soils differ in the al ount nj
lime required to neutralize them
That's why it is wise to send in a
soil sample from every field. every
three to five years, in order to keen
your soil adjusted to the crop ro-
tatiOn used on it.
Fire loss rates on DWELLINGS, in
poor conditions are nearly double
those on dwellings in good con-
ditiOn. The clean home is the safe
home, says Louise r. Whitcomb. of
the Delaware Agricultural Exten-
sion Service.
The Northeastern Poultry Pro-
ducers Council (NEPPCO) will
celebrate it's goth birthday at it's
annual exposition and convention
October 2, 3, and 4, at Harrisburg,
Pa. Theme for the event is THE
Poultry Industry in a Changing
World" NEPPCO was started MAY
Is, 1881.
Fall is a good time to have your
soil tested, and the Delaware State
Soil Laboratory, AgronOmy Dept,
Wolf Hall, Newark, will do it for
Delaware residents free of charge.
Ready-tO-eat foods such as
canned soups, prepared cereals.
desserts, breads, cookies, and salad
are more expensive than
those made at home. says NJ. Ger

Armed Services Like
Poultry

For 1851, military menu planners
figure on using over twice as much
chicken as last year, or approxi-
mately 13O million pounds.
About IS percent will be frvers
and broilers of which Delaware
poultrymen raise so many, said w
I. McAllister, extension marketing
specialist at the University of Della
ware
This creates a big market for
poultry meat, outside the regular
consumption, said McAllister. But
the Quartermaster Corp points out
that in so far as possible, they will
buy only ready-to-cook poultry.
This is particularly true for over
seas shipments. Only a small part
OF Delaware's poultry is dressed
In the ready-to-cook form. com
mented McAllister.
On the less tangible side of the
subject, McAllister quotes the
Quartermaster Corp as saying that
poultry properly prepared and
served is a real builder among
soldiers and sailors.
