Competitive Broiler
Tests Prove Strains
fConrinued from page one)

The competitive part of the test,
Waller explains, came from putting
birds of IA different broiler strains
against each other in some 27 pens
to see which would grow fastest
ON the least feed and with the
smallest losses. -Four of the strains
were new experimental chickens
not in commercial use yet The
other 10, however, are kinds COM
monty purchased as chicks by
broiler growers in the state.
Waller reported that the birds
were sold at 9-week of age at
within a qGarter-cent of the top
market price for the day. They
went to the dressing plant at 8
weeks and days of age.
Feed used in the test was a 249c
protein ration carrying about 1920
calories per pound. The ration was
a Delaware Poultry Nutrition Coun-
Gil formula with 3 % added fat. The
Nutrition Council Waller explain
ed. is made up of University of
Delaware research men, plus nu-
TRITON specialists from the COM
mercial feed companies in the state.
. Waller said that results showed
good growing ability for a summer
flock. He reported that complete
details ON the performance for each
pen of birds would be available
within a few days.

ing to Mr.. William Hargadine, Jr.,
Regional Director, of the u. S. De-
partment of Labor's Wage and Hour
and Public Contracts Divisions.
This law applies to all children; /;
it makes no difference whether they
are natives of Delaware or are mi
grants from another State or ma
tion," Mr.. Hargadine said.
There is nothing in the law,
however, to prevent a farmers s
own children from working ON his
own farm at amy time and at any
age. Also, there lis no minimum age
requirement for the employment of
children i'm agriculture before or
after school hours, on Saturdays or
Sundays, or during school holidays
or the regular school vacation
periods.
"If a farmers products move out
of Delaware, either directly, or in
directly, he is subject to this law.
1t Is Ills responsibility to find out
the correct age of each young
worker he employs, but he is pro
1ected from unintentional violation
if he has on file an unexpired work
permit or age certificate showing
the young worker to be at least 16.
These certificates may be obtained
from the Commissioner of Labor" "
Mr.. Hargadine said that farmers
are required to maintain certain
records for each of their workers
under Is years of age, if they work
on days when school is in session.
They include the minors name in
full. date of birth, and the address
of his permanent home and where
he lives while working If not at his
permanent home. These records
must be retained by the farmer for
three years.
''If a youth under 16 works dur
ing school hours for farmer sub
ject to the Fair Labor Standards
Act" Mr.. Hargadine said, "then the
farmer violates the Fair Labor
Standards Act, regardless of who
hired, or is paying the underage
child" He mentioned that the Sec

BLIND FEAR DISAPPEARS in
WATER

DETROIT - up = Blind chill
dren are freed from one of their
greatest fears in gay hour of
swimming pool fun.
That's the fear of humping into
things, which disappears for the
youngsters shouting and splashing
in An indoor pool once week.
But eEeI. more important things
are accomplished in the first swim
ming classes ever held for blind
children in Detroit. Their teacher
says the classes give the youngs-
ters "a chance for free movement to
let off steam
They move as freely as fish in
the water, knowing sudden motion
won't mean q bruised knee or
bumped elbow from some unexpect-
ed hard object. They're learning to
swim and even dive.
To appreciate the difference, tea
chers say you should see the blind
children in school-"the are quiet
and subdued and always a little
afraid. But they lose that fear once
they are in the water"
