1886 Benefited In Sussex From
Social Security Last December

persons over age 65 in Sussex Coun-
ty were receiving these payments.
Mr.. Rinaldi pointed out that this
Federal program is affording sub
stantial survivor insurance prOtec-
ton. Three out of every four mo-
theirs and young children in the
Nation are now assured of month
ly payments if the insured bread
winner of the family dies.
In this connection, he cited
monthly payments totaling $9,997
to 324 children, and 63 widowed
mothers in Sussex County. These
monthly payments are going to
families deprived of earned income
by the untimely death of the wage
Garner. They are making it possible
to keep families together, and keep
children in school, and, at the same
time, lessening the drain on both
public and private welfare funds

Farm Building Plans
Available At u. OF d.

Well planned and we'll = built
farm buildings can be the key to
success on the modern farm. In
spite of this, according to Earl A.
Grouse, agricultural engineer with
the University Of Delaware Agri-
cultural Extension Service, most
farmers can't afford to hire archi-
tects to design their buildings.
Every building should be built
twice" says Grouse, "the first time
on paper"
To help farm people help them
selves, the USDA is cooperating
with the Land Grant Colleges in
making some of the best farm
building plans available. These
plans are picked for simplicity and
economical construction.
"These plans" Grouse points
out, ARE being furnished to resi-
dents of Delaware free of charge
You may get them by asking your
county agent. Although we may
not have plans for the exact build
ing you want, we are usually able
to supply something which can be
adapted to your need"

Ohio Deer
Season To
Open Dec. II

The 1852 Ohio deer season, first
in two years, will be held Dec. II,
IL, 13, inclusive, in q Ohio coun-
ties. Twenty-six of the counties
will be open to hunting with guns
or bow and arrow, while Carroll
County will be open to bow and
arrow hunters only.
Gun hunters may use only shot.
guns using rifled slugs in the
taking of deer, and only male deer
with two or more points ON one
antler may be taken. The bag
limit will be one Q only:
Although a total of A counties
had been originally recommended
for an open season, Council adopt
ed smaller number of counties
to be opened when surveys show
ed that reported deer damage to
farms and crops in the more
densely populated deer counties
was low indicating that a season
in those counties was not neces-
sary to control the herd
The action of the Council was
in keeping with an established
policy of controlling deer in the
agricultural and urban areas, and
to increase the herd in the for.
est and non-agricultural areas.
Due to the fact that the major.
ity of the counties open fall into
the latter classification the Coun
Gil felt that the control OH bucks
only season was appropriate and
would not appreciably injCre the
herd in these areas. OttaWba
county is not open to deer.
