Watch Ewes For
Lambing Sickness

You'll probably get a better lamb
crop this year-and keep ewes
alive-by checking to see that the
ewes aren't coming down with
lambing sickness.
Mostly mature ewes in good con-
dition are affected by the sickness
curing the last two or three weeks
before lambing, says DR.. E. F.
Waller, animal industry department
head at the University of Delaware.
Lambing sickness is seldom seen
in young ewes carrying one lamb
and in old, thin ewes.
Ewes getting sick will suddenly
refuse to eat, then they'll be ner-
vous For example, they'll walk in
circles or push against something
like a post or wall
In about 4S hours, the ewes will
lay down on their sides, moving
their legs as if walking. Finally
their temperature will fall below
normal and the animals will go into
usually-fatal coma.
To prevent lambing sickness, DR..
Waller advises keeping grain from
ewes the last month before lamb
ing. And make the animals exer-
else by putting hay and water one
fourth to one-half pile from the
shelter house. After a day or two,
the ewes will, get used to making
the trip by themselves.
Some growers put molasses in
the animals feed as a laxative to
prevent lambing sicness.
DR.. Waller advises calling the
local veterinarian right away if
lanbing sickness hits your ewes.

Leaders Training Meeting
Scheduled for January 14th

A leaders training meeting, de-
signed to help newly elected Off
GERS and committee members of
the numerous farm and home
groups in the county to become
better acquainted with their dut-
les, has been scheduled for Mon
day evening, January 14th at 500
pm. in the Caesar Rodney High
School.
George Vapaa, county agent, in
making the announcement, stated
that leach year many men and
women, both young and old, are
elected TO some office or named
to a committee for the first time
in their life and it nearly scares
them out of a years growth" F"
With the help of some training,
however, it makes their job much
easier and enjoyable, and they in
turn are able to make a much
greater contribution to the well
fare of their group.
The "gimmick" at this session
will show the difficulties one has
to get his ideas expressed to a
group effectively. Special emphas-
is will be given to the duties of
president, vice president, secre-
tary and treasurer, as well as
committee chairmen. Arrange
ments will be made to provide
special training for various groups
such as Grange, Farm Bureau,
Home Demonstration, All and
others if the need arises
There is no charge for the
training program and all inter-
ested groups are invited to be
present.

Doctor Cures House Of Old Age

Remodeling in easy, budget
minded stages often is the wisest
method of changing an old,
cramped house into a spacious,
modern home.
Proof of this can be seen in the
handsome, four-bedroom, two
bath home of DR.. and Mrs. Earl
Benson, of Marietta, Ga. Before
the Bensons began their four
stage project of modernization,
the house was a dilapided, two
bedroom frame structure with
out bathroom.
DR.. Benson bought the old
house because he wanted to live
in the country. He also knew that
a good building material dealer
and experienced contractor can
work miracles with almost any
house.
Mrs. Benson was dubious at
first, but her husbands enthu-
siasm was contagious and she
soon pitched in to help with the
planning.
AS reported in Practical Build
er magazine, their first step was
the addition of a bathroom and
undermining the kitchen. At the
time, the bedrooms were ade-
quate after the walls were
patched up.
Later, as the family grew, the
Benson's contractor suggested
utilizing a two-room storage
building 200 feet away from the
house as an addition" This was
done by moving the storage
building to within 20 feet and
connecting it with breezeway.
The two storage rooms were
converted to a master bedroom,
a second bath and closets, plus
fourth bedroom. This done, the
Bensons decided the house was
big enough and covered the en-
tire structure with a long-lasting
blue-gray asphalt sbingle roof.
The roof color is in pleasing con-

Dairy Breeding Records
Save Farmers Money

What do you mean saying that
1 gave $1,000 away last year?"
This was the comment of a local
dairyman to the county agent,
George Vapaa, in a discussion of
herd management.
Let's figure it out in black
and white and see if it makes
sense to you," said Vapaa. "You
have a milking herd of 20 cows
and a bull which runs with the
herd. We know from research
that two conditions are present
when the bull runs with the herd.
The dairyman cannot be certain
when the COW is bred, and so has
no idea when to turn the COW
dry. If the cow is turned dry too
soon, you have lost money. But
if she is still milking when she
again freshens, then her body
reserves are down and you run
into trouble. A COW should be dry
about two months prior to calv-
ing so that she can produce a
healthy calf"
"On the average the research
studies indicate an average drop
in milk production of a third to
a fourth of the cows ability in
this situation. If your cows are
averaging 5000 lbs. of milk a
year, then with controlled breed
ing and simple records you can
easily bring these cows up to
5000 lbs. average. IF Won average

The doctor and his wife took
their third step when they de-
cided to enclose the breezeway
to give their four young children

and blankets were installed in
the walls and ceiling to insure
Smyrna times., 1957-01-03

a ton of milk from each COW or
a total increase OF 10000 lbs,
then at an average price of $4,000
per 100 lbs, you can earn an ex-
ira $1,6OO.OO."
SAY, that does make sense .
said the farmer who prefers to
remain nameless (and who wants
to admit shortcomings). DO you
know what I'm going to do?" he
continued. Were going to beef
old Ferdinand, get an extra COW,
and start using artificial breed
ing. The telephone is handy and
we can get the advantage of bet
ter bred sires for less than the
cost of keeping the bull"
