Work on remOdeling of the bank
building in Dover for the Farmers
Bank of the State of Delaware will
commence within the next week or
two, it was announced today by
William X. Patton, President of the
bank. 1t will result in practically
rebuilding the present structure
and increasing the size so that it
will cover the entire property.
The roof of the present building
will be razed and the building in
creased in height to make it two
stories above ground. This will
more than double the floor areas
for banking facilities.
Plans call for an entirely new
Safe Deposit Department, includ-
ing valut, to be created in the base
ment, thus leaving the entire first
floor for banking purposes. There
will be an adequate number of in
dividual customers booths and a
conference room for groups such
as executor or corporation meeting.
The first floor will be practically
one large open space, with twice
as many cages as at present across

ed that the work of rebuilding will
take about fifteen months. During
this period, arrangements are being
made to carry on banking opera

is hoped that this will cause the

the customers of the institution and
will give the contractors a better

Grass Silage High
In Vitamin A
Helps Shy Breeders

"Shy breeding and fall freshen-
ing is often a problem with dairy
men. A good roughage program in
cluding high quality grass silage
may help this situation" says Del
mar J. Young.
Young. dairyman with the Della
ware Agricultural Extension Serv-
ice says that shy breeding among
older COWS in the herd may be
Iessened by feeding plenty of
-oughage rich in Vitamin A Five
pounds of grass silage supplies a
1000 pound COW with an adequate
amount of this vitamin. To provide
the same amount of Vitamin A, 18
pounds of corn silage, % pounds
of average legume hay, or 141
pounds of low grade mixed hay
must be fed daily.
Another angle is that a good
dairyman tries to balance his milk
production the year round by
breeding part of his cows to freshen
during the late fall and early win
ter. AS more and better hay and
silage becomes available for winter
feeding. the percentage of cOncep-
tions during the winter months
may increase.
This connection between better
rOughage and pasture programs,
and better herd management, is
one that dairymen can follow up
to advantage, Young suggests. One
way to evaluate and improve your
pasture program is to join the 1852
Greener Pastures Program. COUn-
ty agricultural agents are now en-
rolling interes ested dairymen
throughout the state in this pro-
gram.
