Farm Boys and Girls
Form University All Club

There's something new and diff
ferent in Delaware's All Club or
ganization. That something new
is a University All Club, recently
organized by group of twenty
students at the University of Del
aware, Newark, says Samuel M
Gwinn, state All Club leader.
officers of the new club, all for
ber or present All Club members
in their own communities, are:
Carolyn Cook, Middletown, presi-
dent; George Simpson, Dover, vice.
president; Robert Krewatch, Del
mar, secretary; and Dorothy Pier
son, Hockessin, treasurer. Gwinn
will be the faculty advisor.
The officers described the club as
"a service club to help with state
All activities, as well as being q
social organization. We hope that
it will help Alters get acquainted
with each other at the University,
to welcome new Alters to the
University group, and to develop
leadership"
The Club is already planning to
help with the University Farm and
Home Week, February 9-12. They
also hope to establish a state All

Superphosphate is a good source
of additional phosphorous, and it
prevents nitrogen from escaping
from the manure.
The best way to apply super
phosphate, says T. A. Baker, of the
department of animal and poultry
industry, is to dust it in the gut
ters at the rate of one pound per
cow per day. Baker says that in
this way a large amount of liquid
manure is absorbed. The super
phosphate also acts as a deodor-
ant.
Another good method to follow
in order to get the full value from
manure, is to spread it everyday,
Baker advises. But, if it must be
piled up large part of its value
can be preserved by adding super
phosphate regularly.

Ag Economists Reviews
BrOiler, Turkey Situations


Business activity is at. an all
time high, and demand for farm
products is good. AS for Delaware
broilers and turkeys, w. T. Meal
lister of the Delaware Agricultural
Extension Service, reviews the sit
uation.
Some weakening of the broiler
market can be expected, but a
pre- Christmas collapse is not like
ly, thinks McAllister. Supplies are
building up. Chicks placed now
would come to market in early
March. Last years March prices
ranged between "a and 26 cents.
McAllister says it is doubtful that
this years price will be any high
er.
The price for Christmas and
New Years turkeys should be
somewhat better than Thanksgiv-
ing prices. Storage holdings are
large, and act as lid on rising
market. In reference to turkey
broilers, McAllister advises not
"selling them short" even though
they haven't been the money-mak-
ers they were expected to be. The
outlets for them are still expand
ing. Retail outlets were't ready to
take them in volume and there was
temporary flooding Of the mar
ket.
McAllister concludes by saying
anytime is planning time, but
probably more is done at the END
of year. Now is good time to
go back over 1852. Consider each
crop and each field, evaluate each
COW and poultry flock, examine
each entry in your farm record
book. Strengthen your 1853 farm
program by improving this years

profitable afternoon ever put in or

many farm tasks outside the home,
such as care of poultry, milk and
gardening. Her working hours
per week average 81, half a day
more than the city homemaker's
56 hours a week.
Farm homemakers spend more
time getting meals, cleaning house,
mending and sewing, and doing
laundry, the survey shows. City
homemakers spend more time car
ing for children and shopping. This
may be because city women have
more help in housework and be-
cause the food produced on the
farm eliminates some shopping for
the farm homemaker.

City and Farm Women Spend
Same Hours in Homemaking

City and farm women spend
practically the same number Of
hours per week in homemaking.
However, the time spent on differ
ent homemaking tasks varies quite

Home Economics in the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture shows
that farm homemakers spend
around So hours a week in home
making. Their city sisters aver

USDA Research Develops
New Lindane Spray Mixture

A lindane mixture, which retains
its power to kill twice as long as

Bureau chemists explain the
properties of the new lindane blend
in this way: lindane in solutions
and emulsions, when sprayed or
painted on surface, tends to
crystalize, leaving a white residue
powder. The new blend improves

Answer: Look again, and you will
see that your dictionary labels il

Preventative" is slowly but
surely passing from the American
Linguistic scene; but it is still seer
land heard often enough to justify
Ian occasional corrective comment.
ID The "-ative" words end ir

tate, Initiative; contemplate, con-
Itemplative: nominate, nominative
letc.
(2) The "-tive" words end II

tormentive; attent, attentive; assent
assentive, etc.
Now there Is no such verb a
