Kent has had a 80 per cent share

1855 was the worst corn borer

county was infested and there was
an average Of 323 borers found
for every 100 corn plants. For

Birds used in the tests were i
White Rock cockerels. Runnels
said that if straight-run- chicks of
both sexes had been used that the
birds would still have averaged
over 8 lbs. weight at 8 weeks.
They were ready for market about
/ to 2 weeks earlier than most
broilers grown commercially on
the Delmarva peninsula and used
up to 2 lbs. less feed per bird
than the best commercial growers
now need to grow birds to a 3
lb. weight.
Runnels pointed out that the
feed used in the experiments cost
about S8 a ton more than most 1
commercial broiler feeds now sold
so that the savings from the high
energy feed itself were not too
appreciable. The real savings from
its use, he said, were the savings
in time, housing and labor in be-
ing able to market the birds at
an earlier age.
About IL per cent fat was actu-
ally added to the experimental
feed, Runnels reported. He eau
toned that such high-fat rations
are still in the experimental stage
however. Feed manufacturers can
boost fat content in their formu-
las to 5 or z per cent with pres
ent mixing methods. he said, but
considerable research in mixing
problems will be needed before
they can get as high as IL per
cent.
Not only do such high-fat diets
present mixing problems, Runnels
said, but they require changing |
other ingredients in the feed to
give the flock a properly balanced
diet. AS one example, he men,
toned that corn gluten meal had
to be added to a high-fat ration
so that the diet would produce
enough yellow color in the dressed
birds to satisfy consumer prefer
ence.

Step UP the calories in broiler

er chickens grow faster but they
will eat less feed while doing it!
At least that's the conclusion
drawn by poultry research spec
ialist Tom Runnels from feeding
tests completed recently at the
University of Delaware Agricul-
tural Experiment Station. He grew
some strains of broiler chickens
to more than 31s pounds weight
at 8 weeks of age on less than
z lbs. of feed per bird.
The tests, in which animal fat
was added to a basic standard
broiler ration of $50 calories per
pound of feed, were started over
year ago. Calories were stepped
up to HOO per pound of feed by
the addition of beef tallow, and

rough shedding because of OPP
position from tobacco growing
counties.
Prince Georges County is in
the latter category and its dele
cation will vote to sustain the
veto imposed by the Governor
because. he said. the bill provides
for no maximum tax.
2-Cent Tax Considered
Montgomery has considered a
two-cent-a-pack tax equal to
that in the District Of Columbia,
which officials say would bring
in 100000 to 100000 a year.
But Prince Georges County
will vote to override the Govern
ors veto of the Eastern Shore
backed bill to delay for another
year an increased auto registra-
ton fee.
The State would net an esti-
mated 81 million annually under
the proposed new fees of see
and $50. Present fees are SIS
for light cars and $23 for heavy
ones.
The Montgomery delegation
which originally supported the
bill. is not certain of what stand
it will take on the veto.
Mr.. Lee said the delegation
may vote to sustain the veto on
grounds the county would bene-
fit in new roads.
Allied on School Issue
Top interest among vetoed bills
for both delegations is one which
would increase the States in
centive fund payments for school
construction by some $4.5 mil
lion.
Both delegations will vote to
override the veto which would
increase the allotment from $40
to $40 a pupil. Montgomery
County. which last year got only
about $4,000 from the fund,
would receive an additional
$3.50, 900 If the bill becomes law
Prince Georges would fare even
better.

Ban
On Canal Asked

A spokesman for nearly a
score on conservation. wildlife
and recreation organizations has
urged Congress to forbid loca-
ton of any new highway less
than 300 feet from the historic
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.
In a statement in closed ses-
sion Of the House Interior sub
committee of the Appropriations
Committee. Rear Admiral Neill
Phillips. USN retired, stated
that anything less than the 800
foot limit would greatly dam
age" the canal area.
The hearing on the Interior
Department budget was held
Friday. Admiral Phillips state
ment became available yester-
day.
Access Roads Approved
Admiral Phillips said he spoke
for thousands Of citizens and l6
area and State organizations
which specifically asked him to
oppose superhighway develop
ment along the canal from
Washington to Cumberland, Md.
"A superhighway is not needed
to bring the people of the canal
together" he said. But by i'm
pinging on the canal and cut
ting through its magnificent
woods it would be q useless de,
struction and stark tragedy"
He applauded tentative plans
of the National Park Service to
build only lateral access roads
to the canal upstream from
Great Falls.
Recreation Need Stressed
If this is desirable, as it GER
tainly is, for the area farther
UP the canal, then how much
more important it is in the canal
area so close to Washington, the
area so intensively used for rec
reation."
The witness conceded that his
proposed distance limitation
might mean acquiring more
rights-of-way at some points
along the canal. He suggested
that the Cabin John line street
car tracked and a strengthened
Macarthur boulevard located on
top of Washington's water sup
ply conduits might be among
property acquired for new high
way rightS-of-way.
He emphasized that the groups
he spoke for support the concept
of a George Washington Me-
mortal Highway extension along
the canal. but oppose any park
way plans (which in the name of
expediency would destroy the
character Of the canal"
