of the work is conducted at the
College farm and laboratories on
the Newark campus and the rest
at the Georgetown sub-station.
The projects range all the way
from paste studies into the effect
of fertilizers and green manure
crops on the molecular structure
of soil particles to such market
ing surveys as why a housewife
will choose one particular broiler
chicken m preference to others in
the same grocery store display
case.
An even dozen of the Delaware
research projects will be reported
on to farmers and other visitors
at Farm and Home Week next
month, D. Somers said. In addi-
tion, the Farm and Home Week
program will feature latest re-

form and so Mellen decided that
this was a real mutation" or
permanent genetic change in the
birds.
Although the pen of "flightless'
New Hampshires which will be
exhibited at Farm and Home
Week are still a long way from
being of much practical use to
farmers or lovers of fried chick
en-, the two research men think
that they may be able to develop
them further. 1t takes less time
and expense for a poultry dress
ing plant to dress such a bird,
they say.
Some time this year, Mellen and
Mumford plan to try to cross
them on one of the newer broiler-
chicken strains and see if the
mutation can be successfully built
into a white-feathered meat-type
bird.

George X. Vapaa, Kent County
Agent, described the program for
sheep raisers to be held February
9 during Farm and Home Week
at Newark, for which experts in
sheep raising from other states
have been obtained. He empha-
sized that these meetings are
planned for all sheep raisers in
the state and have been under
taken in recognition of the grow
ing interest in sheep in the state.
New members attending the

Farmers Guard Milk Quality

Milk, called natures most per-
feet food reaches consumers
with its original goodness" in
tact largely as a result of efforts
by farmers to safeguard its quail
ity, points out New Castle Coun-
ty Agent E. H. Schabinger.
"Dairymen consistently produce
milk of the highest quality" Mr..
Schabinger says. They are quail
ity conscious, and careful hand
ling by them assures that when
milk leaves the farm this original
quality is being passed on to the
consumer"
This is shown, Mr.. Schabinger
adds, by the results of milk quail
ity contests and various other
checks. To achieve this reputa-
tion, it is necessary for milk pro-
ducers to practice sanitation at
every stage Of milk handling, and
also to adhere to high standards
in the management and operation
of their whole dairy program.
They need to observe not only
the three "C's" of milk produc-
ton keeping it clean, cool, and
covered, but also to apply strict

SHEEP RAISERS
DISCUSS LANDING

The Importance of good lamb
ing practices to profitable returns
from sheep raising was the high
light Of the meeting of the Della
ware Sheep and Wool Association
on January II.
Participating in a panel discus
sion of lambing practices and
problems were DR.. Ernest F.
Waller of the Department of An
imal and Poultry Industry of the
University of Delaware; DR.. w. r.
Teeter, State Veterinarian of the
State Board of Agriculture; John
H. McQuail of Smyrna, and Floyd
K. Blessing, Houston, sheep rails
ers. A wide range of topics be-
ginning with feeding ewes prior to
lambing to methods of docking
and castrating lambs were consid-
cred DR.. Teeter described situa-
tions in which ewes need help and
showed small equipment that
could be used. Cleanliness and
maintaining sanitary conditions
during lambing and during the
nursing period were regarded as
the most important factors in the
production and raising of good
lambs.
DR.. Teeter showed two films on
new sheep diseases for the infor-
nation of the Association mem
bers. These diseases are causing
losses to sheep owners and SER
iously threatening the sheep in
dustry in this country. Neither
of these diseases are known to be
present in the state, but DR.. Teet-
er warned owners to exercise eau
ton in purchasing breeding stock
from states in which the diseases
are known to exist.
At the meeting, Association
members adopted changes in the
constitution and bylaws among
which was reduction in dues for

rules of cleanliness to their per-
sonal habits.
Clean milk could not be pro-
duced or shipped without clean
hands, clean udders, clean uten-
sils, clean pipelines, and clean
containers. Just as important,
Mr.. Schabinger explains, is the
need to keep the milk covered,
cooled promptly, and properly
stored.
Milk is produced and processed
under rather constant inspection
by feldmen, sanitarians, an d
health officials. This assures pre-
servation of quality in milk and
