CONSERVATION
RANKS GROW
CheswOld Farmer Swells Kent
County Cooperative Enlist
ment Mark to 1000
AGENCY FORMED IN 1913

Edward Rowehl of Cheswold has
become the 1000th Kent County
farmer to make an agreement
with the Kent County Soil Con-
servation District in assisting
with his conservation problems.
Fore-sighted Kent County farm
ers formed the Soil Conservation
District in 1943 to assist land
owners in the care and mainten-
ance of their soil and other ma
tural resources. c. Arthur Taylor
of Harrington, one of the origin
al organizers and now chairman
of the district board of supervis-
ors was the first Soil Conserva-
ton District cooperator.
Mr.. Rowehl sought help from
the Soil Conservation District
shortly after he bought his farm
near Garrisons Lake. He plans to
raise potatoes and other vegetable
crops. However, he is deeply con-
cerned because of a number of
growing gullies on the slopes Of
his rolling lands. Deep layers of
top soil have moved into the bot
tom of the stream which sur
rounds his farm. Oddly enough
this is one of the few serious ex-
amples of water and soil erosion
from land slopes in Kent County.
The biggest county soil conserva-
ton problems have related to
drainage of the predominantly fiat
lands.
In order to farm his land the
way he wants and to control the
erosion at the same time, Mr..
Rowehl is developing complete
conservation plan with the spec
ilalized help of the Soil Conserva-
ton Service technicians. Along
with the gully control, he is plan
ming rotation system, cover
crops, and a farm pond. A soils
map of his farm made by the
Conservation Service shows the
capabilities of his soils and forms
the basis of many decisions in his
conservation planning.
When Mr.. Rowehl completes his
conservation plan, the Soil Con-
servation District will make heavy
equipment available to help the
improvements on the land. The
large machines will permit him to
accomplish the job quicker, cheap
er and more effectively than would
be possible with ordinary farm
equipment.
Others interested in learning
more about land improvement
should call or visit the District
office at 313 S. Governors Avenue
in Dover, or call the county agent.

APPLY BY APRIL 80 FOR
WOOL PAYMENT

If you've sold wool or unshorn
lambs since April 1, 1857, chances
are you've earned a payment UNI
der the federal wool incentive
program, George C. Simpson,
chairman of the Delaware Agri-
cultural Sterilization and Conser-
walton Committee, reminded farm
ers today.
To collect the payment, Mr..
Simpson said, be sure to file an
application at the county ASC
office not later than April 80.
These applications, he explain
ed, are to cover wool and unshorn
lambs marketed not later than
March 81, 1858. If there is any
detail of sale which is not COM
pleted until after that date, the
transaction goes over into 1858
marketings and will be eligible
for payment in 1859.
Wool incentive payments are
made under the National Wool
Act of 1854. Payments on shorn
wool are direct incentive to in
crease production. Payments on
unshorn lambs are made to en-
courage normal marketing of
lambs with the wool on and avoid
unusual shearing to get the shorn
wool payment. The goal of the
program is to increase U. S. pro-
duction to 300 million pounds of
shorn wool-about a one-third in
crease over production in recent
years.
The program for 1858, recently
announced, will be similar to that
during the past year, with the in
centive price continuing at 81
cents a pound. To encourage the
best possible job of marketing by
wool growers, the farmer earns
higher incentive payment by get
ting higher price for his wool.
Both sheep numbers and shorn
wool production appear to be on
the increase in this country, ac-
cording to March report on the
wool situation by the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. The re-
port also states that imports are
on the decline, and that the gov
eminent has disposed of the last
of its wool holdings acquired un-
der the 1952-54 price support pro-
gram.

and knowingly harvest or Craze
land designated for the Reserve
program, he would also be subject
to further penalty of so percent
of the payment which he would
have earned for complying with
the Soil Bank program.
The purpose of the Soil Bank is
to reduce surplus crop production,
and anything which might tend to
defeat this purpose should be
avoided, concludes Mr.. Ennis.

Plant Trees to "Frame" House

Plant Trees to Frame" House
Trees are probably the most
important feature in providing an
attractive setting for house,
reason why it's best to plan be-
fore you plant.
So says George Vapaa, county
agricultural agent. If possible,
limit the use of large shade trees
to the back or sides of your house,
he suggests. Thus positioned,
they'll provide an attractive back
drop and side curtains making
the house the center of attention
from the street.
Large trees are especially use
full behind rambling, modern hous-
es to soften harsh roof lines. But
for trees to be planted in front
of the building line, great care
should be taken to choose sizes
and species that will compliment
and not hide the house, the agent
adds in saying:
"a general rule of good land
scaping is to plant trees that will
frame the house, giving it an air
of spaciousness and stability,
When selecting trees for this pur-
pose consider the angle and
place from which the house is
most likely to be seen. Usually
this is from the view of the ap.
preaching visitor or passerby
Then plan your trees so the area
in front of the house will be sim.
pie and uncluttered, and the sur
rounding trees will balance ant
frame the building"
For homeowners who would lik,
to improve the appearance of al
existing landscape. overplanteC
and cluttered effects. can some
times be overcome by removing
some trees and large shrubs, Of
by removing lower branches O.
trees that obscure a view, Mr.
Vapaa adds.
