Paul Dudley White, the ia

Eisenhower, said TO a United

in Australia this week:
"A lot Of people say golf

so much golf during his

lows: The l0lst Airborne
Division Is the only one
ready for instant action. The
82d Airborne is In pretty
good shape but needs I'M
provements before II can
move on a 24-hour notice.
The two infantry divisions
are nowhere near ready.
Moreover these four di-
visions must be used TO as

result Of a series of major
cutbacks made In the Army
over the past several years,
which has eliminated spe-
cial-training divisions en-
tirely as distinguished f.om

divisions. Y
Despite the fact that the
Soviet Union still has, even
after a number Of alleged
cutbacks Of its army, some
ITS active divisions and is
capable Of mobilizing within
go days at least another 100
divisions Of trained reserves,
we cut our own ground
forces to the bone. This was
not due only TO the fact that
our policy-makers have be-
come convinced that the
next war will be fought with
nuclear weapons - a belief
generally strengthened since
the launching of the first
sputnik - but also because
our military forces are very
costly. Their upkeep and
pay is by far the highest in
the world. In order to make
ends meet on a $40 billion
defense budget II was con-
sidered necessary to reduce
the number of "archers."
This was done in the face Of
our determination not to use
nuclear bombs except in re-
taliation for the enemy's
using them and despite the

As q matter Of fact, ac-
cording to our expertS-who
will not admit this publicly
mot even a full division
could be flown overseas in
less than a week or 10 days.
And then IL would contain
only advanced echeloEs with
the very lightest hardware
which would not include tanks

cumstances, added our au-
thoritative informants, could
a second division at the same
time be flown 5000 miles in

two brush fires broke out at
the opposite ends Of the
world at the same time. This
would be most likely to hap

Chicken Prices
Lower Than Ever

Broilers-fryers have been in
heavy supply for several weeks,
according to Mrs. Anne Holber-
ton, consumer education and
marketing specialist at the Uni
versity of Delaware. AS far as
the shopper is concerned it is
good news because chicken
prices are lower than ever and
the situation is expected to con-
tinue through October and prob
ably to the end of the year.
Mrs. Holberton says the ques-
ton is not whether to buy the
surplus young chicken but how
best to buy to suit the family
meal plans. You can buy your
bird cut in serving pieces and
packaged, or whole chickens
ready to roast in the oven. You
can buy by the pound the parts
you prefer-breasts or drum
sticks or what ever.
Some markets even have ro-
tisserie machines in the store
so you can buy a broiler cooked
at the store. Homemakers

Vaccine Protects
From Newcastle

A safe, effective killed-virus
vaccine for Newcastle disease
in chickens has been developed
by u. S. Department of Agri-
culture scientists.
A complete report on this de-
velopment was made recently
by DR.. Eugene Gill, veterinar-
ian of USDA's Agricultural Re-
search Service and formerly on
the staff at the University of
Delaware.
DR.. Dill's report covered the
final phases of work in the de-
velopment and testing of the
new vaccine. Earlier phases OF
this project included: determin-
alton of the strain of Newcastle
disease virus that produced the
greatest degree of immunity in
chickens, and finding the best
method of killing the virus with
the least effect on its ability
to immunize the chickens.
A single injection of the kill
ed vaccine when given to a.
day-old chickens was found to
protect the birds throughout
the broiler growing period. Re-
vaccination at IL weeks of age

of age, the longest period test

Mrs. Holberton says the pack
aged cut-up chicken offers not
only choice meaty parts such as
breasts and drumsticks but also
backs, wings and giblets which
you may want to use for gravy,
soup or some other special dish.
Buying the whole bird, you
may make it 60 farther in serv-
ing the family and cost consid-
erably less per pound than buy
ing separate parts.
On the other hand, if you are
in a hurry, preparing a party
dish or buying for a family pre-
ference, buying separate choice
meaty parts may be worth the
extra cost.
If you are buying for just two
people it may be more econom-
ical to buy special parts, too.

more expensive meaty parts or

1853 Yearbook OF
Agriculture Out

The future appears to hold
for us an increasing population,
increasing wants on the part of
individuals, unknown advances
in the techniques of production,
and new and competing uses for
many of our land resources"
This is a statement from this
years Yearbook of Agriculture,
entitled: Land.
Land has served us we'll in
the past, it is pointed out. 1t
was virtually the only resource
available to our ancestors at the
end of the Revolutionary War.
Proceeds from the sale of land
were used to provide funds to
launch the fledgling Nation.
More important sales of agricul-
tural products provided capital
for the rapid naturalization
of our economy. Sales of land
financed some of our communi-
cations-canals, railroads, and
the National Pike. Through the
land-grant college system, pub
lie lands have helped in educat-
ing the young. And in larger
but immeasurable sense, abund-
ant land may have been respon-
sible for much of our political
and economic freedom.
The basic question of land use
remains, and the welfare of gen.
erations to come will depend
upon how we'll they succeed in
getting each acre of land into
its most economic use.
1t is a book for city people
as we'll as farmers and govern
ment officials. Several chapters
deal with the growth of cities
and their worries as to trans
| pOrtatlOn, trade, planning, ZOn-
ing and the future.
No specific program is offer
ed, but it discusses our growing
use of farmland and forests for
non-agricultural purposes, which
is of concern to every thinking
American.
This Yearbook also has two
special picture sections. One
shows land use from the land
ing of the colonists to the pre-
sent. The other shows the use of
airphotos in determining the eX-
tent of changes in land use.
Many charts, maps and tables
are included.

Farm Real Estate
Reaches New High

The market value of farm
land and buildings in Delaware
rose eight percent during the
year ending July /, 1858, &C.
cording to w. t. McAllister,
agricultural economist with the
University of Delaware. This
compares with a nationwide rise
in farm values averaging five
percent during the same period.
In general, the market value
of farm real estate Gland and
buildings) continues to climb to
new high levels, according to a
report by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture on current devel-
opments in the farm real estate
market. Values in AS states
reached the highest point on re-
cord during the year ended on
July l.
The rise of five percent in
farm real estate values across
the Nation is only a little less
than rises in several preceding
years. Southeastern and North
ern Plain States experienced the
sharpest advances, while smaller
than average increases occurred
in the Corn Belt and Great Lake
areas.
Active farmers are the most
important buyers of farmland,
purchasing about three-fifths of
all farms and farm tracts sold.
And enlargement of existing
farms continues, as in other re-
cent years, to be an important
motive for purchase. This alone
accounted for 40 percent of all
farm transfers last year. Most
strongly affected by this demand
for bigger farms is the western
two-thirds of the country, not
ably the spring and winter
wheat areas. Demand for land
for non-farm uses is felt more
in the East.
The report also discusses the

You can expect to pay most

USDA veterinarians have con-
stantly stressed the need for
safe vaccines to be used on
farm animals. A safe vaccine
is incapable of spreading a dis

disease organisms, and retains
its ability to induce immunity

use of killed vaccines offers the
best possibility for the eventual
eradication of Newcastle dis
