visitor at Dunbar on last Mon
day. Mrs. FortSon visited num-
Der of our classroomS.
The "a members of Brownie
Troop No. 305 enjoyed a Weinie
Roast on the school campus on last
Monday. The six leaders of the
troop and three patrons, Mrs.

uation exercises on June at 900
pm. in the cafeteria of Dunbar.
The public is cordially invited.
Thursday, members of the four
sixth grade classes were guests of
Booker T. Washington High
where the majority of Dunbar stu
dents plan to attend Junior and
Senior high school.
AS part of the preparation for
next years citizenship program,
brief survey was made of church
affiliations, church group mem
berShipS and memberships in
clubs both school and neighbor-
hood. Twenty-eight per cent of
the pupils in grades four, five and
six attend some church regularly.
Thirty-tour different denomlna-
tons were listed. One hundred
eighty held membership in 10 diff
ferent types of church organiZa-
lions. Twenty per cent held MEM
bership in some type of school or
reighborhood clubs such as Girl
Scouts, Junior Lodges, Neighbour
hood Club, etc. Fifty seven per
cent of pupils in the three upper
grades are members of some type
of organization that YIELDS some
type of moral influence over their
activities.
Some of the very active sixth
graders are Dorothy Mitchell of
St. Peters African Orthodox
Church; Barbara Tucker of
Friendship Baptist Church; jamie
Bethune of St. John Baptist
Church; Dorothy Pressly of ST.
Luke Baptist Church; Herbert
Bethel OF st. Mary'S Wesleyan

Last week was very busy one
for the students and faculty. On
Monday morning the six graders
had their assembly for awards.
Many parents came out to cheer
them on to further goals.
On Thursday, June 2, the six
graders again were in the spot
light with the annual social affair
given in honor of the graduating
six graders.
The occupational classes, UNI
der the sponsorship OF Mrs.
Counts, Mrs. Sharpe and Mrs.
Grant, had an exhibit last week.
Included in the exhibit were the
many articles the children had
made during the year. Every
class in the school were invited
and took advantage OF this OPP
portunity to see what can really
be made with little or no ex-
penSe.
Three of our instructors have
taken a vacation to await

The officials of the Pool. which

state that this quantity of wool is

With such a large quantity of

Delaware wool will now command
the interest of buyers who want
only large quantities of graded
wool and who will pay the highest

On June 80, Mr.. Calvin Hollis
and Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Groggin
visited the Bucks County Wool
Pool at Doylestown, Pa. They re-
port that the prices received for
the various grades of Delaware
wool were almost identical and
that they were similar to those
received by most other Pennsyl-
vania counties that have collected
wool to date. While there, no un-
tied wool was delivered to the
Pool, and Bucks County officials
say that very little is now Offer

of wool annually. Like the other

parlors and pipeline systems. The
great majority had adapted their
bulk tanks to conventional stan
chion-type barns and machine
bucket mixers.
About rs percent of all plants
surveyed indicated that average
farm-to-plant bulk hauling rates
were lower than average can haul
ing rates. The savings ranged
from 2 to 20 cents per hundred
weight, the most common figure
being cents. These hauling-rate
savings combined with plant prem
iums brought the average direct
cash benefits to producers to
slightly over IL cents per hundred

Livestock Producers Lose Money
When Animals Are Injured
En- Route To Market

Livestock producers could in
crease their profits by cutting in
juries to animals en- route to
market.
This observation grew out of an
analysis by the Farmer Coopera-
tive Service of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture of loss and
damage to livestock delivered by
number of cooperative shipping
associations to three Wisconsin
markets.
Most producers seek to protect
themselves from losses by insur-
ing their animals for the haul
from farm to market, the FCS re-
port states. But often they do not
realize that the cost of this pro-
tection-either through regular in
surance or, in the case of cooper
atives. through contributions to
sinking funds"-is based upon
transit loss experience. Faulty
practices in handling animals re-
suit in unnecessarily high charges
for insurance protection.
Producers also lose money, the
report indicates, through lower
price at the market. Bruise dam
age not detected until after
slaughter represents loss to the
professor, and buyers often dis
count stock from a producer with
a poor record on bruise losses. A
producer with such a record may
find himself "a last resort" source
to be used only when meat sup
plies cannot be obtained else
where.
The report suggests that transit
damages and losses could be cut
substantially if livestock produc-
ers would: (1) avoid exciting ami
mails before shipment, if possible
sorting and assembling day in
advance, (2) prevent livestock
from overeating or drinking i'm
mediately prior to shipment, (3)
load animals carefully and unhur-
riedly, using good loading equip
ment and avoiding use of clubs,
whips, or canes, and az choose
a trucker with low loss record
and insist upon careful handling.
The Wisconsin study revealed
that the rate of death and Grip
pling rose in proportion to the
length of haul, and losses were
almost twice as high in winter as

Huge Increase in Wool At
Delaware Wool Pool

Delaware sheep raisers market
ed 16,8951s lbs. of wool valued at
$8,540.94 through the Delaware
Wool Pool held at the Kent-Sus-
sex Fairgrounds on June Is, offic-
ials of the Pool announced.
Compared with 1854 when the
first wool sale was held, this is
four times the volume marketed
by Delaware sheep raisers. The
average price received this year
was 50.6c per pound. The operat-
ing cost this year was y of a
cent as against 1.3 cents in 1854.
The lower cost was due to the in
creased volume.
The average price is lower than
the top price of SIC paid by the
Pool this year because a larger
proportion of united wool was Of
fered by sheep raisers although a
premium of cents per pound
was offered for wool tied with
paper twine.
The predominant grades were
3-8 and Ia blood, characteristic
of the Eastern mutton type f1ocks
and represented 14,175 lbs. of the
total. 1,5621a lbs. graded fine and
half blood. Rejects amounted to
1872 lbs. and consisted chiefly of
black and gray feeces or wool
containing black fbers which has
to be discounted because it can be
dyed only black or gray.
The remaining 666 lbs. were
tags of dirty, discolored or short
pieces of wool removed from fieec-
es at shearing or during grading
indicating that sheep raisers are
giving more attention to the pre-
paration of their fieeces. 'TThis

Delaware Wool Producers Vote
on Wool, Lamb Program

Alden P. Short, Chairman of the
Delaware Agricultural Stabiliza-
tion and Conservation Committee,
said today that all wool growers
in the state will have an oppor-
tunity to vote in a referendum to
decide whether or not deductions
will be made from wool payments
to provide a means of financing
the wool marketing development
program.
In the referendum wool growers
will have an opportunity to vote
for or against putting into effect
an agreement recently made be-
tween the Secretary of Agricul-
ture and the American Sheep Pro-
ducers Council under Section 7O8
of the National Wool Act of 1854.

Bulk milk neutrality-suspicious.
the conventional milk can with
refrigerated tanks on the farm
and insulated tank trucks for COL
lecting and hauling milk from
producer to plant-promises to be-
come one of the most important
basic changes in the history of
dairying.
This is one of the conclusions
growing out of a study by the
Farmer Cooperative Service of
the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture of bulk milk handling sys-
TENS now in operation. Single
copies of an article summarizing
the FCS findings can be obtained
free of charge from the Farmer
Cooperative Service, u. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, Washington
25, d. c. Ask for Reprint rs.
Producers receive an average of
slightly over IL cents per hundred
weight more for milk collected
from refrigerated tanks than the
average in their area for milk
collected in conventional cans, the
FCS study shows. Some of this is
gained in the form of premiums
offered by milk plants for bulk
milk, and may represent subsi-
dy from the plant to speed tram
Sition to the new system rather
than actual economies thus far
due to the changeover. Neverthe-
less, the FCS concluded that bulk
milk handling offers considerable
promise of eventually increasing
returns to the producer, the haul
er, and the plant through lower
costs, better milk quality, and ex-
panded markets. Benefits are real
lied more quickly when the
changeover is rapid and we'll inte-
grated among producers, haulers,
and plants.
The oulk tank system of COL
1ecting milk first appeared among
large dairy farms in California
about Is years ago. Since then it
has gradually spread to other
parts of the country. In mid-1953,
approximately 275 milk-receiving
plants in 80 states were obtaining
deliveries from over 600 farm tank
trucks serving about 5000 farms
equipped with bulk milk. This re-
presents roughly about 1 percent
of all milk plants and commercial
dairy farms in the United States.
The F'CS survey indicated that
bulk milk handling, like most 9th
er farm mechanization, lands con-
siderably greater economic ad-
vantage to larger volume opera
tions. Among plants included in
the FCS survey, bulk shippers av-.
eraged 1,015 pounds per day,
grade A can shippers averaged
525 pounds, and ungraded can
shippers averaged 21O pounds. A
300 gallon bulk tank was the most
common-sized unit in use on the
farms surveyed. One of the diff
culties for the small producer is
the large cash investment requir-
ed to install a refrigerated farm
tank for bulk collection.

cent of all bulk milk shippers sur
