WHEAT DEADLINE-Any Della
ware farmer who has more wheat
than his acreage allotment allows,
or more than Is acres, whichever is
larger, should dispose of the ex-
cess acreage by May 81 according
to statement made by George C.
Simpson, chairman of the Delaware
Agricultural Sterilization and Con-
servation Committee, Thursday.
If the excess acreage is not dis
posed of by May 81 the farmer will
not be eligible for wheat price
supports or Soil Bank payments
Simpson said
Farmers should not put off the
job because weather, illness or other
circumstances might interfere at
the last minute.
Notices have been sent to all
growers who have excess wheat
acreage. Questions should be di-
rected to the county ASC office for
further information and advice.
GOOD GRAIN YEAR - Della
ware grain growers have reason to
look forward to a good year in
1858 according to the Delaware
State Development Department.
Basing its observations on u. S.
Department of Agriculture reports,
the Development Department notes
that the 1858 wheat harvest will
likely reach S06,000 bushels which
would be 168,000 bushels more than
the 1857 yield. While part of this
greater wheat yield Will result
from fact that Delaware farmers
have increased their acreage of
paintings from $4,000 acres to 3D.
| 600 acres, much of it is expected
to come from fact that a record
yield of 26 bushels per acre is an
ticipated The 1857 yield was %
bushels to the acre.
The cover and added moisture
supplied by the snowfall of last
winter has served to give winter
wheat an unusually good start.
While crop yield forecasts for
other grain planting have not, as
yet, been made by the u. S. Agri-
culture Department, there is rea-
son to believe, according to the De-
velopment Department, that other
grain yields will be higher than
those of 1857.

The Bluffton Business Mems
association at a meeting of its
retail division Wednesday eve
ming of last week considered the
possibility of petitioning Toledo's
television station WSPD-TV to
increase its signal strength in this
area, but decided to await the
outcome of plans for a new sta
ton broadcaSting from Toledo
on Channel II.
Anderson, Bluffton radio and
television service man, told the
Business Mems association that
the new station channel tower is
expected to be twice as high as
WSPD's tower.
The Bluffton service man said
he had complained of the poor
signal being received here from
WSPD to william Stringfellow,
chief engineer of WSPD-TV.
"Mr. Stringfellow advised me
that they have the power of 316
K. w. and their secondary serv-
ice area has a radius of go miles
from Toledo. Beyond that they
don't try to maintain signal
strength above any particular
level" Anderson said.
