ANY farmer may become a
member by paying a lifetime
fee of 81, after which he can
get the service at So per calf.
Horton pointed out that keep
ing bulls is a dangerous under
taking. Farmers have been kill
ed or seriously injured by bulls
that appeared gentle and HARM
less. They are expensive. In the
first place, a state champion bull
would cost several hundred dol
lars, maybe thousands, and in
the second place, he will con-
sumo a lot of feed that might as
well be turned into milk or
meat.
Britt thinks he rather paw
the SD fec than take cow TO
another farm for breeding. A
member of the association mere
.ly telephones the inseminator
that he has COW that is ready.
and that the COW will be found
tied to tree in front of the
barn or some easily found place.
Then, the farmer goes on about
his work, or fishing if he pre-
ferS. The inSeminator comes
with the semen and applies it.
without bothcrinG the farmer.
Another advantage that Britt
points out is the certainly that
the semen comes from a good
bull.
Britt says that dairying can
be made profitable on the small
11f1eerws of-lEcnfy and he thinks
farmers would do we'll to ex-
plore the possibilities of making
a living on something besides
tobacco, especially in view of
50 many reductions in acreage.

viewed, he was getting ready to
plant ribbon cane to grow a sup

Work has actually started on

Not on the building, yet, but
the lot that was all covered

Harvey Graham, a member of

vcalcd Saturday that upon the
legislature having passed some
additional legislation to remove
some restrictions, the commits

Artificial dissemination Makes
Better Livestock Possible

It is no longer necessary to
stop all the other work and lead
the old cow five miles down the
road to the home of a farmer
who has a good bull.
The approved inseminators
can take care of the job in a
better way to produce a better
III and with less trouble. Arti-
ficitl dissemination is the answ-
er, and techniques have been
developed so that one fine high
ly bred bull at Clemson College
can sire hundreds of choice cal
YES by remote control.
Gomez Britt who lives across
the highway from Fioyds high
school has two fine calves to
prove the truth of these state
mcrtS. He has a bull calf from
- Jersey COW that received
Brown Swiss bull semen by art
ificial methods, and he has a
heifer calf produced the same
way from another COW.
BIRTHS bull calf is the first
one ever produced by artificial
fertilization in Horny county. II
was born July IL, 1855 and
weighed 90 pounds at birth.
That, according to Vocational
agriculture teacher Wilson Ran
Kin Of the Green Sea high
school, is a whopper. He says
the average calf weighs about
60 pounds at birth. BIRTHS three
month old heifer was estimated
by Rankin and Brittle weigh
about $50 pounds. ANYWAY
Rankin says ii is very large for
its age.
The artificial dissemination
Ices not, within itself. produce
drgcr and better calves. Rankin
explains, but better calves are
produced because the semen
that is used comes from better
bulls.
But, some of the best bulls in
the entire South are in the stud

are in great demand. About a
hundred times as many cows can
be bred artificially as naturally
IS. F. Horton. who was once q
vocational agriculture teacher in
Lorls, says the semen is diluted
with gcrm-free distilled water
and poured into long and fleX-
Iblc tube which is wound around

ty labor and equipment.
The County will build an ave
nue. from the Tabor City road
to the market, and another ave-
nue. will connect with Patterson
Street.
Architectural drawings are ex-
pccted to be completed within
about 80 days. Date to begin act
ual construction of the market
building has not been determin-
ed, but Graham hopes that the
building will be completed by
next fall, perhaps in time to
handle the sweet potato crop
and the Community Fair.
Graham points out that more
than a physical plant will be
necessary for successful mark
ct. He says that the community
must take steps to see that there
will be buyers on the market.
The market will be located
about two blocks northwest of
the railroad and about three
blocks northeast of Patterson
Street.
The Merchants Association
the Civilian Club, the Town
Council and the Horny Delega-
ton in the General Assembly
have all sought to promote The

An appropriation Of $4,000 was
made available by the Delega-
ton, and the Town Council APP
propriated $4,000 to be applied
on the purchase OF the site.

NEW CONTRACT
BY BLUE CROSS
To Offer New Extended Ben
efits to Groups as Quickly
As Possible
HEALTH BENEFITS

The trustees of Group Hospital
Service, Inc, the Delaware Blue
Cross-Blue Shield Plan, at their
board meeting on January 80, 1856
authorized the offering of the new
extended benefits" contract to
Blue Cross groups "as quickly as
prudently possible"
The action followed large num-
ber of inquiries on the new plan
of extended health benefits which
has been tried out since Decem-
ber l, 1865 with one large group
of Blue Cross members about 600
employees of Hercules Powder
Company.
The new extended benefits
program is designed to cover
many of the costs, not already
covered in the Blue Cross and
Eyue Shield Plans, that are en-
countered in long term illnesses
like cancer, heart disease and di-
abetes, and in major accidents and
operations with long recovery per-
iods. 1t provides 730 days of COW
erage with all the Blue Cross-Blue
Shield benefits, plus some addi-
tional ones.
Now the new plan, which is a
supplement to the Blue Cross-Blue
Shield Plans, will be available to
other large groups, when enroll
ment regulations are developed.
The new plan will be offered to
groups larger than a minimum
size. What the size must be TO
qualify for the plan at the outset
was not yet known.
The membership fees for the
extended coverage are 81 month
for single persons and 81 month
for family contracts.

al Guard Officers Named
To Committees
ASSOCIATION OF U. S.

Four Delaware National Guard
officers have been named to i'm
portant committees of the Ma
tional Guard Association of the
United States, according to in
formation received by the Adult
ant Generals Office. Major Cen
eral Joseph ]. Scannell, the Ad-
jutant General, is member of a
special committee studying arm
ory construction problems and
pay policies for National Guard
civilian employees. Brigadier Cen
eral John B. Moore, commanding
officer of the 261st AAA Brigade,
Wilmington, has been named to
the associations standing commit
tee on public relations. Brigadier
General William w. Spruance, de-
putty chief of staff for the Della
ware Air National Guard has
been made a member of special
building committee, which will ap-
prove plans for buildings and fl
nancing the associations new
headquarters building in Washing
ton. The project is expected to
cost over a million and half
dollars, to be raised by voluntary
contributions from members and
friends of the Guard. Captain
Paul j. Desmond, of the Adjutant
Generals Office, has been named
to the standing committee on pub
lications, which is responsible for
the associations monthly maga-
zine, "The National Guardsman."
More than 100000 guardsmen sub
scribe to the publication, which is
the professional journal of the
National Guard.
General Scannell, in announcing
the appointments, said, "The rec
ognition given to the State of Del
aware by these assignments re-
fleet the high regard in which the
National Guard of Delaware is
held by our brother Guardsmen
in other states. "These appoint
ments are a tribute not only to
the officers named, but to all the
officers and men of the Delaware
Guard who have worked so hard
to bring it to its present high de-
gree of training and readiness.
He explained that Delaware's
representation on the association
committees is considerably higher
than would be justified either by
the States population or by the
size of the Delaware National
Guard.
General Scannell said that Cap
tain Desmond is one of the few
officers lower than the grade of
colonel who received committee
assignments. During the past
year, Captain Desmond was given,
as an extra duty, the job of in
creasing the leadership of "The
National Guardsman" among en-
listed members of the Delaware
National Guard. Largely due to
his efforts" General Scannell said,
Delaware was singled out for a
special citation at the National
Guard Association meeting in
New Orleans, as the only state
where every member of the Guard
subscribed to his professional
magazine"
