Diverted Acres
Mean More Profit
CONTINUED from nrst page)


acreage reduction for corn is
voluntary program in this state,
but farmers who do not observe
the acreage allotment assigned to
their farms will not be eligible for
price supports on the 1854 crop.
Wheat acreage alIOtments for this
year, backed up with a marketing
quota program have been apprOv-
ed by farmers vote.
The county agent points out that
as our whole economy adjusts to
a more normal peace-time situa-
ton, adjustment in agriculture
must be made too. The production
of food and fibre must be kept in
balance with the market demand
for farm commodities. At the same
time, farmers must not be pencil
lied for having adopted improved
management practices which in
creased their production eff1cien-
.cy.
Some time in the future our rap
idly increasing population will
need all the food and feed we can
grow. To supply these needs the
yields of most crops must be in
creased, and this means we must
pay more attention to soil fertility
particularly in starting a regu-
lar program for replacing soil fer
tility.
What crops can be grown in
stead of corn and wheat? There
are several others that will make
good profit, Vapaa assures farm
ers. Dairy farmers could we'll in
crease permanent pasture. Other
diverted land could be planted to
grass silage, alfalfa hay and soy
beans. If a definite market is as
sured, there is profit in growing
| hay for the mushroom industry,
grass and legume for seed, pop
corn, bluebeTries, strawberries and
canning crops. Forest and Christ
mas trees are a good long time
investment.
Specific recommendations are
listed in a folder, Diverted Acres
Their Use and Conservation, 4"
prepared by the Agricultural Ex-
tension Service and the Agricul-
tural Sterilization and Conserva-
tion Committee. The folder is be-
ing mailed to Delaware farmers
this week
John L. Tarburton, chairman OF
the county ASC committee, urges
Kent County farm people to con-
slider the practical suggestions in
this folder He says, with the
wheat bins and corn cribs over
flowing, we owe it to ourselves to
act wisely and help solve the sit
uatiOn of Over-abundance. Per
haps by so doing we can help stoT
a price crash or more rigid gov.
ernment controls. Let's try anC
cooperate to help bring our mar.
kets in balance"
Any farmer who would like hell
in planning his diverted acres will
find County Agent Vapaa eager t.
assist him. For financial help il

practices such as seeding, fertiliz

CGrUeL Ignored Facts
Sen. Williams Says
lcontInued from flrst pagel


schools promised? What has hap
pened to all those glowing prom
ises?"
Senator Williams pointed ont
that at the close of the legisla-
tive session last year approximate
ly $17,800,000 of state funds were
available for school construction
purposes. This sum-" he said, "is
the largest of state funds ever
available for this purpose at the
beginning of any biennium."
Within two months after the
1858 school construction legisla-
tion had been enacted, IS per cent
of the total 1858 authorization had
been approved for construction in
the various school districts by the
State Board of Education, Senator
Williams said.
He also said that the 1853 school
construction bill made provisions
for AZ projects of which q require
local matching funds. OF the Is
projects not requiring local match
ing funds, six are already under
construction, four have been ad-
Vertised for bids, and plans for two
others are being drafted by archi-
tects, it was stated.
Senator Williams pointed out
that of the q requiring local
matching funds, 25 had already
been approved by the State Board
of Education as of last month. He
also said that although actual
construction is being delayed by
litigation, local boards of education
and architects, together with the
State Board of Education have ap-
proved preliminary or final plans
for II of these projects being con-
sidered by local school districts.
Il doubt" the education COM
mittee chairman said, whether
I.such prompt action has ever before
been achieved in approving plans
for new school construction. If il
were not for litigation pending in
the courts over period of five
months, we all know, as does Mr.
Carvel, tiiat many of these projects
would be well advanced in a con-
structiOn status"
In spite of this litigation and a
strike in the construction indus
tries last summer which continued
, for several weeks, new classroom
and other school facilities have
actually been put into use during
the last six months in Wilmington
Claymont, Elsmere, Mt. Pleasant
Newark, New Castle, Harrington
Milford, Georgetown, Frankford
and. SeafOrd." the senator said.
He also said that as of today
school construction is actually
taking place in the followins
schools or districts: Mt. Pleasant
Alfred l. dupont, Conrad, Newark
New Castle, Newport, Dover, CLAW
ton. FELTON,, Georgetown, and Sea.
i ford, as well as in Wilmington.
Furthermore, Senator William.
! concluded, school construction bid.
were received for the George Ora,
School in Wilmington last weel
and bids are due for construction
/ at the Booker T. WASHINGTON
School tomorrow for the Mills
boro Negro School on March 24tI
/ and for the Louis L. Reddin
School in Middletown on April 7
I This record of school construc
tion. activity, in spite of EXTENDED
litigation, shows cOnclusiveIy. a,
! Mr.. Carvel must have known. tha
the needs of the people of Della
ware for additional school facili
ties are not only recognized by thi
administration but are being full
filled as rapidly as time and cir
cumstances will permit" Senate
