Careful Planning Of.
Farm Operations Urged

It's still not too late to do some
last minute planning for this years
farming operations, says w. T. Nc
Allister, extension marketing spec-
ialist with the University of Del
aware. Take advantage of every
opportunity by careful planning of
this years work.
Here are some planning hints
suggested by McAllister. Plan your
farm. Build your crop program
around your dairy or poultry en-
terprise. Put extra land in cash
crops such as corn or truck crops.
Lever production costs by pro-
ducing more per acre, per animal,
and per worker. Sell all low pro-
ducing animals. Remember, a dol
lar spent on fertilizer will return
two Or three dollars worth of in
creased yields. More and better
roughage plus good feeding prac-
tices will cut dairy costs. Plan
long season pasture program by US
ing supplemental pasture.
McAllister advises all farmers to
get a good financial standing.
Credit will be harder to obtain this
year, so use your money carefully.
Watch overhead costs. Make sure
that new machinery will pay for
itself. Keep records" urges Nc
Allister. They'll help you improve
your farm business. Often, a little
paper work saves a lot of back
work"

If Mrs. Arthur w. Radford
never hears the word "houSe"
again it will be all right with
her.
The wife Of the new chairman
of the Joint Chiefs Of Staff Is
frankly little fed up with all
the discussion Of where she and
Admiral Radford are going to
hang their hats in Washington.
And the idea that I would
get IN a feud with Grace Carney
(wife of Admiral Carney, the
new Chief of Naval Operations)
is perfectly ridiculous. She's a
good friend of NINE" she added.
The Carneys have taken over
Admirals House on the grounds
of the Naval Observatory, con-
sidered the Navy'S most elegant
quarters, which gave rise to a
columnist's report that the two
admirals' wives were feuding.
The Radfords will move into
the commandant's house at the
Naval Gun Factory, and Mrs.
Radford says that is all right
with her.
Though I do wish they would
call it the Navy Yard. like they
used to. I hate to think I am
living in a gun factory" she said
wistfully.
The Radfords days of living
out of suitcase "a state
they've been in since they re-
turned from Hawaii in mid
JULY won't come to an end for
some time, however. Extensive
renovations" are planned for the
second floor of the comman-
dant's house. which is well over
100 years old.
Like the White House and
other ancient Washington build
ings, the house was built vir-
tually without closets, and its
plumbing is considerably anti
quated.
These changes should have
been made long ago, but usually
the new family moving in needed
the quarters right away so they
weren't made" Mrs. Radford ex-
planned.
Though I suppose now some
columniSt will write that the
house wasn't good enough for
Admiral Radford and he had to
have it torn apart" she added
with a tinge of bitterness.
Starting September Is another
Navy house, at Nebraska and
Massachusetts, avenues, NV,
will be temporarily available to
the Radfords. They expect to
stay there until their quarters
at the Gun Factory are ready.
Meanwhile they have been
shutting back and forth be-
tween friends. For a while they
stayed with Marine General and
Mrs. Lemuel C. Shepherd. jr.,

Mrs. RQdford Fed Up
With Housing Crisis
Wife of New Chairman Of Joint Chiefs
Says No Feud, Likes Her New House
By lsnheIIe Shelton

Admiral and Mrs. Charles F..
Chillingworth-other old friends
of the RadfordS-and has one
tremendous asset, so far as the
Radfords are concerned: It has
good-sized swimming pool in
the rear yard. It is surrounded
by dogwood trees, azalea bushes
and one immense magnolia tree
and is Incredibly beautiful in
the spring." says Mrs. Radford.
The admiral dips twice daily,
carrying out a custom ne prac-
ticed on the beaches of Hawaii.
Mrs. Radford swims almost every
day too, despite the havoc to her
well-coiffured gray locks.
The admiral's wife spent many
pleasant hours in the Chilling
worth pool last summer, when
the RadfordS were back here so
that he could accept an honorary
degree from George Washington
University. So she has a Ger
tain feeling of being "home" in
her present abode, "even though
most of my suitcases are still
over at the Shepherds. Oh, that
reminds me. I have to run over
there this afternoon and pick
up some shoes"
If and when she gets moved
into permanent quarters Mrs.
Radford faces the task of fitting
together all our regular belong
ingS, which have been in Navy
storage here for four years, with
the great accumulation of new
things We have acquired in the
Pacific during the last four
years"
The admiral's last post, as
commander in chief in the Pa
cif1c, put him in charge of a tre-
mendouS area, embracing one
third of the globe. from pole to
pole and from California to the
Bay OF Bengal. He travelled over
much OF this area during the
past four years, and whenever
possible Mrs. Radford accompa-
MED him.
Just bringing back something
to remind me of every place I'd
been resulted in the accumula-
ton OF surprisingly large COL
lection of items" she declared.
Her favorite acquisitions are
four and six-paneled gold Japa-
nese screens, and several Japa-
neSe Tonsu chests, which she ex-
planned were japanese bridal
chests made of light wood and
fastened with delicate f1ligreed
The admiral's wife elves to
entertain" and hopes to do a
good bit Of it when she gets
settled.
She also hopes to find time
to take a course in water color
painting at the Corcoran School
of Art, pursuing an interest she
started in Hawaii a few years
ago.
Many people take up paint
ing out there" she declared. THE
scenery is so very lovely that YOU
want to paint it," All of her
works are landscapes, and she
works only in water colors.
People tell me oils are easier
for amateurs, but I figure a
corny water color is better than
a corny OIL" she said with a
smile.
Walking preferably every eve
ning) and reading (current af-
fairs for the admiral, autobio-
graphies for his wife), are favor
ite pastimes of the couple.
The Radfords have no chill
dren. Both have been married
once before. and Mrs. Radford's
only son by that previous mar
riage was killed during World
