Delay Hay Cutting
Until After Frost

If you're short of hay and
want to make another cut from
your alfalfa, wait until we have
had killing frost, Extension
agronomist William Mitchell,
University of Delaware, says.
After frost you can harvest
by cutting or by pasturing al
falfa; either way you stretch
the hay supply.
The reason for waiting until
after frost is to keep the plant
from using too much of its food
reserves in regrowth afterwards.
After frost there will be very
little growth and the food stores
will help the plants stand the
winter and help rapid growth in
the spring, Mitchell said.
Older stands can stand late
harvesting better than new
| seedlings so harvest them first,
Mitchell suggested.

Nationwide Farm
Census To Begin
On November 4th

One of your ,neighbors may
soon be knocking at your door,
about Nov. A, in his role as farm
census taker, says county agri-
cultural agent, George Vapaa.
The big count of crops, acres,
equipment and the like is taken
every five years. Every one of
the nations 100000 ranches
will be visited by one of the 30,-
900 census takers now being
lined up for this job.
Each numerator will be a To-
cal resident; each will. be requir-
ed to take a qualifying test fol-
the job. He or she will also get
IL hours of special training and
swear to keep all census infor-
nation confidential.
The Act of Congress provid-
ing for the census prohibits
making census information for
an Individual farmer or farm
available to any tax or investi-
cation agency, the county agent
explained.
Many facts and figures will
be needed for accurate report
ing, so the county agent urges
growers to start assembling re-
cords now. He says three kinds
of information will be needed
for an accurate picture of the
current farm situatio and
changes which have been taking
place. These will include a
count of farm resources-cror
acres, livestock numbers, and
the kind and amount of pro-
ducts harvested and sold. The
third type of information will
relate to such selected activities
as days worked off the farm

Banquet speaker this year will
be DR.. Earl L. Butz, dean of

on the economics and econo-
mics of agriculture, and also as
a world traveller, lecturer and
author. The subject for his talk
at the banquet, which will be
attended by representatives of
all branches of the dairy indus

Toastmaster at the banquet

Springer said.
The crop won't stand up a
gainst wind and water erosion
unless it can get an early start,
nor will it come through with
strength enough to make good
forage or grain in the spring.
For late paintings of wheat,
use at least two bushels an
acre and 300 to 500 pounds OF
5-lO-lO fertilizer, if you plan
on harvesting it for grain. This
will help your wheat get start
ed and prevent winter killing

About two weeks before the

will be asked to fill out the
forms and give them to the To-
cal census takcr when he calls.

The banquet is Embarrassing

The goal the turkey growers
are aiming for is $500, Lloyd
said.
The chairman of the program
is MIR. Carlton Lowe, turkey
producer from Laurel. The menu
is roast turkey.
A few tickets are still avail

Mice Wage War
On Fruit Trees

Delaware fruit growers should
start an orchard mouse control
program as soon as harvesting
is completed, according to Rob-
ert F. Stevens, extension horti-
culturist at the University of

The use of endrin for ground
sprays will do a good job. Too
many fruit growers look on this

most any time and consequent

Late Paintings
of Winter Grain
Risky Business

Get your winter cover or grain

Every day lost in planting
means less chance of a stand
getting through the winter. The
