is completely exempt from the mu-
nicipal property tax.
Unlike most universities, whether
state or private, the University of
Delaware pays local taxes on prop
erty owned by the university and
rented to faculty members. Last
year these taxes together with
those on the College Inn property
on Main. Street amounted to ST.
047.12.
Direct payments from the uni
versity to the City of Newark to-
tailed $150,501.00, or 129o of the to-
tai revenues received by the city
This total represents only small
part of the financial effect of the
university on the residents of New
ark
Purchases of goods and services
by the university itself from local
businessmen total about $780, 900
each year. In 1858, for example, one
Newark firm received $21,00 for
supplies delivered to the universi-
ty; three other firms and one in
dividual received total payments of
about $4,000 each. The balance in
smaller payments was distributed
among many different businesses.
1t is doubtful if any other Newark
industry does as much local pur-
chasing.
A total of 867 residents of New
ark earn their livelihood by work
ing for the university, receiving
salaries and wages amounting to
nearly $4,000,0O0 annually. Since
economists estimate that one-quar-
ter of the average individuals in
come is spent for food, this indi-
Gates that university faculty and
staff members spend $1,00O,000 per
year in Newark for food alone Lo-
cal purchases of clothing, fuel,
furniture, automobiles, plumbing
repairs and the many other materi-
ais and services consumed by a
family must produce another ST.
100000 or more annually for New
ark businessmen.
ALI these financial benefits do not
take into account purchases by
students. Many articles ranging
from tooth paste to gasoline and
from clothing to gifts for family
and friends are bought by students
in local shops. Students go to the
movies, order dry cleaning, eat in
restaurants, have haircuts, and, in
fact, buy from nearly every New
ark businessman. Although it is
difficult to determine exactly the
number of dollars expended in
Newark every year by university
undergraduate graduate, and ex-
tension students, an estimate of
100000 to $500,000 is reasonable.
The greatest impact of the uni
versity on the city and the state is
in the realm of the cultural and
intellectual. Many citizens not di-
rectly employed by the university
have chosen to make Newark their
home because it is a university
city. What the university thus has
contributed to property valuations
would doubtless run into millions.
In summary, since more than
$75O,000 is paid annually either di-
rectly to the city or Indirectly to
its businesses by the university and
it's students and an additional $4,-
100000 is brought into the COM

ter of the University of Delaware,
a publication which covers the pro-
ceedings of the 40th Annual Edu-
cation Conference at the universe

A study recently completed by
University of Delaware officials
reveals that the university makes
a larger financial contribution to
the City of Newark than any other
individual, organization or busi-
ness firm.
Large monetary benefits are en-
joyed by the city and Newark busi-
nessmen and residents as a result
of the university's presence in the
community.
This study was made in view of
statements in the Newark City

Gull BrOilers For
Top Profits


Broiler growers who Gull their
birds usually show the highest
profits. Gull birds literally eat up
profits so it pays to get rid of them.
The number of culls left in the
house after the flock is sold is
larger in many cases than it should
be according to poultry specialists
with the universities serving Del
marva. They offer the following
reasons for this:
1. The grower may not know how
to GULL
q He may not think he has time.
8. He does not realize the i'm
pOrtance of culling.
1t is difficult to estimate exactly
what it costs to keep culls because
they show up at various ages, ac-
cording to the poultry specialists.
Poultry buyers discount price when
they see culls which generally
stand out while making inspection.
Since poultry is not purchased on
a graded basis, it is only reasonable
to expect that each buyer will ar
rive at Q price which he considers
safe. That is, he makes ample al
lowance for B grade and reject or
Gull birds which may be picked up.
Culls are carriers of chronic dis
eases, parasites and worms. FIRE.
quently the culls are smaller and
are picked on by the larger birds
which can start an outbreak of
cannibalism. And Gull birds usual
ly cost just as much to feed as
much larger, healthy birds.
There are many advantages to
culling say the specialists. Culling
birds before market time keeps
them off the market. The grower
who sells his culls and thinks has
made a few dollars, really has lost
money. These culls come right back
in competition with good birds and
undersell them. And when culls
reach market, they occasionally
cause bad publicity which undOes
much of the good promotional work.
Broilers displayed in self-service
markets have to sell themselves.
That means meat counters must
carry higher-than-average quality
of broilers or the housewife will
select something else.
Good culling requires knowledge
and experience to remove birds
that show symptoms of stunted
growth as well as those sick or dy-
ing. Culling should start when the
chicks are placed in the house to
eliminate those which are weak and
will quite frequently become culls.
Throw out birds that are thin or
extremely small; those with defor-
mites such as crooked backs or
legs; those which appear to be a
week or two behind the flock.
Gull out any birds which have de-
formed beaks, skin injuries, severe
bareback or other such characteris-
tics. Keep culls killed during the
growing period. Dispose of culled
birds by putting them in a disposal
pit or taking them to the rendering
plant.
Culling should become standard
management practice on every
broiler farm. The practice of GULL
ing is another step toward lowering
our production cost to KEEP DEL
MARVA GROWING.

Nep Look at Thanksgiving

We are likely to get into rut, even Ill oelhs
thankful Yes, we should be thankful for the common
things of ife for health, food shelter, country IN
which we are blessed with freedom, and many many
other things But did you ever try to think OF new
things for which to be thankful?
I am thankful for young people. am thankful
for the challenge which they present We adults know
so MANY things which cannot be done, but along comes
some Young person, unacquainted with these unsur-
mountable obstacles, just foolish enough to do sue
cessfullv what we couldn't be DONE
am thankful for the irritation of young people,
They are constantly stirring us up jarring US out OF
our compacency forcing us to rethink our positions
What dull complacent world this would soon become
were it not for this constant irritation
| am thankful for the almost limitless energy OF
youth To be sure it is sometimes mlsdlrected, and
sometimes is causes me to lose nights sleep, but 1t
is much more frequently directed into useful channels
am thankful that in spite of the bad examples
set bv their elders and the efforts of adult vested in
terests to corrupt them for financial gain young
people are predominantly wholesome and ldeallstlc
They make one ashamed of his own pesslmlsm.
am thankful that we can all have part in shap-
ing the future through influence on young people For
some this is full time vocation. We all, however,
have share There is not adult who is not In some
way influencing youth. 1t is a heavy responsibility,
but challenging one. Each also has a responsl-
bty to help provide the best in church faclaeS and
Christian schools. Are meeting that challenge?
Yes | am thankful for young people. To be sure,
they sometimes bother and irritate but they are
our most priced asset. May God bless them!
