feed-making sure that it is not
wasted by spilling from bins and
hoppers, and that rats, birds and
other pests are not being support
ed along with the livestock.
Other feed wastes can be avoid
ed by better management, says
Vapaa. For example, too many
dairymen increase milk produc-
tion by feeding huge amounts of
concentrates instead of breeding
or buying cows with higher pro-
ductive capacity and feeding more
forage.
Broiler producers, on the other
hand, have made good progress
in putting results of research in
to practice. With improved feed
ing formulas adopted in the last
5 years they are saving about a
pound of feed per pound of broil-
er. Good results are also being
obtained with turkeys, and some
improvements are beginning to
show up in the feeding of pigs.

quiries had been received on this
subject.
The soil bank payments to be
counted as net earnings by self
employed farm operators are
those made under the acreage
reserve" program and the annual
payments for land placed in the
conservation reserve" Milbouer
said. These payments replace in
come which the farmer reason
ably could have expected if his
land had been kept in normal
crop uses"
A third type of soil bank pay
ment is the conservation-reserve
reimbursement payment. These
are payments made by the Fed
eral Government to pay part of
the cost of carrying out the con-
servation practices and making
improvements on the conservation
reserve. They are included in fig
uring the farmers net earnings
only if the expenditures are de-
ductible as business expenses fol
income tax purposes.
A landlord who owns a farm
and participates materially in the
production or management of pro-
duction of farm commodities gets
social security credit for his
share of the soil bank payments
just as the farm operator does
Milbouer pointed out. For a farm
owner who receives rental income
but who takes no part in the
actual operation of the farm
neither the soil bank payments
nor the other rental income counts
toward social security benefits.
Farmers who retire and claim
social security payments in 1856
and then receive soil bank pay
ments in 1856 may file an appli'
cation for a recomputation after
the first of the year.

payments are subject to self-em

Research Shows Animals Inherit
Ability To Gain or Maintain
Weight on Less Feed


Federal-State research over the
years has shown that the ability
of some animals to put on weight
or maintain body weight on low
er quantities of feed than that
required by other animals of their
breed is an inheritable quality,
reports George Vapaa, Kent Coun-
ty agent.
These findings point to possi-
bilities for increasing profit in
livestock production by breeding
animals that use feed more eff
GENTLY than present day CONNER
cial types.
In beef cattle, for instance, re-
search by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture has established
the fact that rate in gain is a
highly inheritable trait. In lines
selected especially for ability to
produce meat efficiently, steers
put on 21a pounds a day on the
same feed that gives a gain of
only 2 pounds in standard COM
mercial strains. And these ami
mails reach market finish with
standard weight and carcass quail
ity. Some unusual animals in
test lots gain as much as

cial security retirement, disabili-
ty, and survivors insurance bene-
fits.
"A large number of elderly
Delaware farmers are retiring
each week under the old-age and
survivors insurance program pro-
vided by the Social Security Act, "
Milbouer stated. The amount of
the monthly payment is based on
the farmers average monthly
earnings"
The minimum monthly payment
is $50 for the farmer and S15 for
his wife, when they reach retire.
ment age. Maximum for which
the self-employed farmer can
qualify is s1Os.50 a month for
himself and S54.3O for his wife.

Efficient Use of Feed Can Out
Livestock Production Costs

There is no better way for
farmers to cut production costs
than by reducing waste in the use
of feeds, suggests George Vapaa,
Kent County agent. Feed accounts
for more than two-thirds of the
total cost of producing broilers,
and over half the cost of produc-
ing eggs. Grain and other concen-
trates make up well over half
the cost of fattening cattle, and
about fourth of the cost of pro-
ducing milk. (Hay, silage and pas
ture account for at least another
fourth of the cost for cattle.)
Some excessive costs can be

Committees, Polling Places
Set for Corn Vote

Members of the committee in
charge of conducting the Decem-
ber IL growers referendum on
the corn program and the loca-
tion of polling places were re-
Gently announced by Joseph w,
Ennis, chairman of the Kent
County Agricultural Stablilization
and Conservation Committee.
In the referendum, farmers
throughout the commercial corn
area will vote on whether they
wish to use Soil Bank corn base
acreages or acreage allotments in
producing their corn crop. The
outcome of the referendum will
also affect the method of qualify
ing for price support for the
1857 and later corn crops.
AS directed by regulations of
the Secretary of Agriculture, the
County ASC Committee has de-
signated three local farmers, and
one alternate, as members of the
community referendum commit
tee to conduct the referendum.
The members must reside in the
community and must be eligible
to vote in the referendum.
Polling places will be open for
voting in the referendum from
8 am. TO pm. on December IL.
Those named as members of the
referendum committees in Kent
County are as follows:

pounds a day, and research work.
ers are sure that they can get
these gains in the type and kind
of beef cattle that breeders and
markets prefer.
Similar results have been OBJ
tanned with meat-type hogs. When
breeding for leaner type hogs be-
gan about 20 years ago, test ami
mails reached 200 pounds in 6 to
Z months on about $50 pounds of
feed per 100 pounds of gain. Now
test animals reach 200 pounds in
5 to 51a months hs-sometimes less
ON 300 to $50 pounds of feed
per 100 pounds of gain.
A local farmer, E. L. Gilbert,
of near Kenton, is demonstrating
that inheritance plays a major
part in the weight gains of pigs
from registered Hampshire sows.
His program of selective progen-
cy testing is based on keeping
records on each, breeding animal.
In tests with dry dairy cows,
where milk production is not in
volved, it has been found that
animals vary great deal in the
amount of feed needed to main
tain body weight. And modern
strains of broilers bred for meat
production have demonstrated
their ability to grow faster on
the same rations that were used
25 years ago than did the broil-
ers of that period.
Comparison of research results
indicates that breeding for feed
efficiency can be applied profit
ably to all types of livestock pro-
duction. Since feed represents the
highest single production cost,
anything which can be done to
cut feed costs means more money
in the farmers pocket, says Va
paa.
