1865 Crop Corn support Program

1855 Crop Corn Support Program
The State Committee has decid-
ed that Delaware is in an area
where producers are not in a posi-
ton to store corn safely for the
full storage period. Therefore, the
following final dates and specifi-
cations have been established. The
final availability date for obtain
ing a 1855 corn loan or purchase
agreement will be January 81,
1856. The applicable loan or pur-
chase agreement document must
be signed by the producer and
presented to the County Commit
tee not later than this date. The
final delivery date will be May
81, 1856. Producers must pay off
their loans by this date, or be
prepared to shell and deliver their
grain at the time and place spec
fled by CCC. The moisture con-
tent must not exceed 20.5 percent
for ear corn when tested for loan
from the time of harvest to Janu-
ary 81, 1856. The moisture con-
tent must not exceed 1876 percent
for shelled corn placed under
farm-storage loan, or under a
warehouse-storage loan, regard
less of when the corn is tested.
Corn delivered under purchase
agreement must not contain in ex-
cess of IT'S percent moisture
when delivered from farm stor-
age. All corn must have a test
weight of at least 48 pounds per
bushel, and grade number 8 or
better, in regard to cracked and
damaged kernels and foreign ma
terials. No corn can be placed
under loan if it grades weevily.
The established rate per bushel
for 1855 crop corn placed under
loan is STA.

Random Sample Egg-Laying
Contests Giving New Low-Down
On How Hens Perform

Laying flock owners are getting
a lot of new pointers on hens and
egg production from the Random
Sample type of egg-laying con-
tests, according to 81 McHenry,
extension poultryman from the
University of Delaware.
For one thing, the tests have
helped demonstrate to poultrymen
that large body size in a laying
hen isn't so important as we once
thought, he says. Other things
being equal, the smaller the bird
the more profitable she will be
for market-egg production under
present-day cost and price condi-
tions, at least. Some of the ran
dom sample tests results also
point to the idea that the leghorn
hen faces some very tough COM
petition from some of the small
strains of the 'heaVy' breed blrds.
However, the best strains of the
on the best strains of the heavy
leghorns seem to have an edge
breeds, if you go by the results
of some of the random sample
tests, McHenry points out.
Many chick buyers also are
overly concerned with egg size,
McHenry says. Yet recent results
from one of the random-sample
kind of egg laying contests shows
that eggs weighing more than "a
ounces to the dozen brought only
about Az cents per dozen more

Richard Green, IL, of Middle

winner. He will be a member of
the Delaware delegation to the

A All Club member for nine
years, Richard has an outstand-
ing record in dairy production
and management. Richard bought
his first Guernsey heifer from
his father. and now owns herd
of six. His profits are to be used
for a college education. He be-
lieves experience is the best way
to learn animal husbandry. In

than eggs which weighed less than
the 24-ounce figure.
At this rate, if a bird lays 200
eggs in year and 80 percent of
them are small ones, her egg
earnings will be only about 20
cents less than if she laid moth
ing but large eggs, McHenry
points out. To make up for this
20 cents, the small-egg bird needs
only to lay 8 or more eggs than
the large-egg bird. So it doesn't
pay to go after jumbo egg size
if you nave to sacrifice on egg
numbers, McHenry thinks.

Women Urged
To Turn World
To Prayer

NEW YORK (NC) -
Thomas z. Murray, commits
sioner of the Atomic Energy
Commission, said here he
looks to womanhood to turn
the world toward that prayer
which is necessary "if man is
to avoid world suicide"
Il am convinced that the strength
of this as of all nations lives in its
womanhood," he told the American
Irish Historical Society, which pre-.
sented him with its 1855 Gold Med.
al. The award is given each year to
an outstanding American of Irish
ancestry.
prayer is the one and only force
by which man will ever receive the
inspiration, the courage and the
strength to enable him to direct
nucIear forces toward better and
more abundant life" he said.
Commissioner Murray, who Is
KNIGHT OF ST. Gregory and .
Kniqht of Malta, continued: II
look TO womsnhood everywhere
for The inspiration and example
TO turn US toward God and pray
er. For wherever men are strong
in their, faith, is not that faith
nUrfured from fhe cvadle by their
mothers and strengthens by ths
example OF their wives7"
Mr.. Murray, who has been on the
inside of atomic and hydrogen pow
er developments for the last five
years, said it is not strange that
man has run into trouble in decid-
ing how to deal with nuclear power
Nothing in the history of the
human race has prepared us to
cope with this awesome situation, y
he said. The world has not only had
no time to adjust, but hardly time
enough to comprehend, he added
"Yet time is running out" he
declared "Man must quickly recog-
nize his atomic dilemma and make
tie superhuman effort to resolve
it."

in its essential constitution, the di-
vinely established custodian of the
Divine Revelation which indicates
our relation with God and our des-
tiny for eternal union with Him in
the happiness of Heaven.
The three main topics of the
Faith, the Archbishop said, are
knowledge of God, knowledge of
self and knowledge of Christ.
Mere materiaIisfie research
and knowledge, the preIate de-
eIared, are barren, foolish and
insipid. He added: ITO know
the existence OF God we need
only TO look honestly and hum.
bly, at The world about Us. To
understand the infinite richness
of Gods Being, we need only
TO read with PraYerfUl attention
the message of Gods Revelation
in which the length and breadth
of Ills mercy and goodness are
laid open TO contemplation"
Meditating on the knowledge of
self, the Archbishop said that many
of the new" scientific methods of
psychiatry have been understood
in a religious sense for centuries
by the masters of the spiritual life.
knowledge of self, the Arch
bishop said, should go beyond
knowledge of sin and should in
vestigate the stimulating, positive
aspects of human nature, lone of
the most noble products of divine
omnipotence"
knowledge of Christ is necessary
because He is the Mediator be-
tween God and man, the prelate
said.
without Christ we would know
God only from afar and our steps
toward Him would be few and fall
tering," Archbishop Cushing said.
His earthly life, lived in circum-
stances which we can easily COM
pare with our own; affords power
full example of the virtues which
He bids us to practice. His sacri-
flee of Himself on the Cross has
made available to us the divine
grace which flows into our souls
through the seven Sacraments and
through our prayers and good
works"
