While rhododendron and azaleas
stand up well under winters buf-
feting, extreme cold often kills the
buds. These buds will not flower.
Consequently, home owners are
cautioned not to expect a lavish
floral display even though the
plants have a good crop of buds.
California privet, widely used
for clipped hedges, has been killed
to the ground in many northern
areas.
Trees also have suffered, though
not to the same extent as shrubs.
Such speciments as weeping will
lows, Towering crabapples, the
rare franklinia and some of the
arborvitae and American holly
have been hard hit, particularly
those in exposed locations.
Pruning should be withheld un-
til growth starts. Proper feeding
with food high in nitrogen con-
tent, will help restore winter in
jured trees to health.

Most striking is the increased
investment in machinery and
equipment. Average value of
equipment at the disposal of each
farm worker today is nearly ST.
900. as compared with $500 worth
of machinery and equipment pei
worker in 1910.
The investment per agricultural
worker of $4,000 is an average
for all farms in the United States
This includes, the USDA econ
omists point out, relatively few
very large farms and ranches
worth several hundred thousand
dollars and thousands of small
and part-time farms with little
value in land, buildings, livestock
and equipment.

Winter Ills Mar Spring Beauty
of Trees and Shrubs

Spring sunshine may have cured
most winter coughs and colds, but
many shrubs and trees still suffer
from cold weather ailments.
Full extent of the damage is
not yet known. Extensive plant
injuries are reported by Davey
tree experts from the deep South
through Canada.
Snow, ice, zero temperatures
and bowling winds plus a few
days of bright winter sunshine
have taken an unusually heavy
toll. But there is little or nothing
that can be done until spring is
well advanced. Then, when dam
aged parts stand out clearly
against healthy foliage, pruning
operations can begin.
Among the winter casualties are
rhododendron, azaleas, pyracan
tha, California privet, roses, box
wood and a host of other home
favorites.

Suggestions For Control of
Brucellosis

The following suggestions for
costrol of Brucellosis are provided
for Delaware farmers by DR.. w.
Robert Teeter, Director of Live
stock Sanitation:
1. Vaccinate all calves against
Brucellosis between 6 and 8
months of age. Preferably as near
6 months as possible. When vac
cinated at the proper age, 6-8
months, a larger percentage will
clear up on blood reaction titre
and remain clean during their life
time.
2. Do not vaccinate bull calves
as they have a tendency to carry
blood reaction for longer periods
than do heifer calves.
8. Allow a period of 1912
months to elapse before breeding.
/ A. If possible, bleed all heifers
before breeding. Do not breed if
they show a blood reaction (titre)t
S. After vaccinating calves do
not expose them to bad weather
for at least 10 days. Some calves
may suffer unfavorable reactions
if they become chilled, cold. and
wet.
6. In purchasing herd replace
ments check to see that the an
imals are out of a clean herd
have been tuberculin tested within
the past twelve months and blood
tested within 80 days. Check
with the State Office if necessary
to be sure.
! 7. Do not buy any animals from
herd having mastitis.
s. Remember you can buy, pay
for, and take home some othel
disease that you have never had

u. S. Farm Capital Resources
Valued at $4,000 Per Farm
Worker

Behind each of the 81a million
farm operators, hired hands, and
family workers on United States
farms, there lies an average cap
ital investment of about $4,000,
according to the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture economists.
This amount - four times the
1910 average per farm worker of
$3,500-is invested in land, farm
buildings, livestock and feed in
ventories, machinery and equipment
and cash for operating expenses.
It does not include approximately
$1,000 per worker invested in
houses, automobiles, household
goods, and savings.
Imitation has been the principal
factor in the increase in dollar
value of farm resources in rela.
ton to number of workers-the
same resources would have beer
valued at $1,000 in 1910 dollars
But the investment, even in 194(
dollars, is a 70-percent increase
Two other developments hav'
been responsible for this actua
increase in resources per farm
worker. Farmers have bough
much new machinery and equip
ment; they have added to thei
buildings; and they have improves
their land a great deal. In addi
ton, the number of farm worker
has been shrinking and is nov
about fourth less than in tn
years Immediately precedin
World War II.
