Guard Against Hidden
Hunger BY Soil Tests

Do you have areas on your farm
where crops show no hunger signs
but where you seldom get top
yields?
If so, you need a good soil test
ing program to identify and build
up such areas, advises Associate
County Agent Ed Ralph. By follow
ing a regular program of soil test
ing, you can avoid low yields and
low profits caused by hidden hun
ger.
Before soil testing reached it's
present development" he reports,
many farmers waited for defici-
ency symptoms to tell them they
were running out of plant nut
rient-an inefficient, dangerous me-
thod. When plants reached this
stage, profits had been declining
for some time.
Most farmers who use soil tests
today are not interested in recon-
mendations for average production,
they are interested in producing top
yields of high quality crops.
To get top yields. Ralph urges
farmers to have soil tested regu-
larly and use sufficient amounts of
fertilizer to build up and maintain
a high fertility level in the soils.
Follow the recommended procedure
in taking soil samples and send
these samples to the Soil Testing
Laboratory, Agricultural Hall, I'm
iversity of Delaware, Newark for
analysis, Ralph said.

Corn Silage Beats
Ambercane AS
Dairy Feed

Corn silage produces more milk
than ambercane silage, according to
dairy nutrition experiments ut the
University OF Delaware.
DR. George f. w. Haenlein, in a
scientific paper presented at the
American Dairy Science Assoc
iation meeting at the University of
Wisconsin. reported that feeding
comparisons with 20 cows over a
two year period showed corn silage
to be superior to ambercane silage
as a milk producing feed. The test
cows on corn silage produced more
milk and fat and a higher percent
age of solids-not-fat than the cows
on ambercane silage.
In is supplementary trials with
sheep and rabbits. the same trends
in nutritional values resulted. Cor
relation OF these results indicated
that smaller animals can be used
to test feeds such as silage. This
is of considerable Importance in
reducing research expenses.
The correlation of data between
sheep and rabbits was significant
for the nutrients being studied, the
scientist said.

DO YOU KNOW THAT
Do you know that:

Do you know that:
Bennett is an old English name
of relatively simple origin. 1t is
merely a contraction of the per-
sonal name Benedict. The latter is
derived from the Latin "benedictus"
naming blessed, and its earliest
barer of renown was Saint Bene-
dict (490-543), the founder of the
Bendictine Order. 1t is interesting
| to note taht Benedict was not
known as a personal name in Eng
land before the 11th century, but
shortly thereafter 1t and it's deri-
vatives. such as Bennett, Benson,
etc, became very popular.
Caleb Prev Bennett Q75S-1836)
served as lieutenant in the Della
ware militia during the Revolution
ary War. Among other engagements
/ he took part in the battles of
Brandywine and Germantown Af-
ter the war he lived first in Wilm-
ington and then in New Castle. He
was treasurer of New Castle Coun-
ty for twenty six years and was
elected governor of Delaware in 49,
80.
The assessment list of Cedar
Greek Hundred, Sussex County for
the year 1855 contains the names
of Nehemiah Bennett and Joseph
Bennett.
Reverend Joseph Bennett was
preacher at Bethel Methodist Epis-
copal Church at Lewes in 1915.
Joseph S. Bennett was the first
druggist in Milford, starting h s
store in 1916.
John Bennett was elected Levy
Court Commissioner of Sussex Cou-
nty in 1855.
Stephen r. Bennett was a men,
ber of the Town Council of Milton
| in 1882.
"The Bennett Family History" I"
dealing with the ancestors and des-
centants of William Bennett (1757-
1881 and Grace DAVID Bennett
(760-1S43) who were married at
what is now Kennett Square, Pa,
was compiled by their great grand
daughter Mary Elizabeth Bennett,
Durand and her husband Edward
d. Durand of Washington, d. G. and
published in 1941.
James Gordon Bennett (1795-1S-
72) founded the New York Herald
in 1885. Charles A. Bennett (18S5-
1930) was professor of philosophy
at Yale University. Rawson Benn-

CHOOSING A TOPIC

BINGHAMTON, n. Y. (AP)-Gen
eral manager Harry S. Milligan OF
the daily Binghamton Sun-Bulletin
was asked to address a. service club
in nearby Nichols.
The man who made the request
called three weeks later to remind
him of the date. But he called the
wrong man-Harry F. Milligan. vice
president of the Marine Midland
Trust Co.
The Marine Midland's Milligan
checked his calendar, saw that he
had nothing scheduled, and said
he'd be there.
Both men appeared at the dinn-
er. The Sun-Bulletin's Milligan
spoke on THE Free Press in Trou-
bled Times" and the Marine Mid
lands Milligan gave a short talk on

Grandma Had A Firm
Foundation

BY 1905 the Gibson Girl fashions
reached their height of popularity
and the rubber reducing girdle as
introduced. No figures are available
to indicate how much "superfluous
flesh"-as the ads termed it was
lost as a result of its attrition.
(Later, in 1924, sheet rubber re-
ducing girdle also enjoyed brief
vogue.)
The corset kept extending its
control and by 1915 reached SO far
down the thigh the big question
became Can she sit DOWN." But
the silhouette softened and grew
more practical during World War
/.
By the flapper era of the Twen-
ties slim girls didn't bother with
girdles, flattened themselves at the
top when necessary. The fine fig
ure of woman type wore corsets
to give straight line from should
er to hem.
But fashion, ever on a pendulum
swing, started the other way in the
Thirties. The bosom gained new re-
spect along with other feminine
curves. Lastex was developed in 19-
81 and a two-way stretch girdle
was shown in that year.
From that time on, the big chang
es in foundation garments have
been in fabric, shape has remained
mostly faithful to nature.
Nylon came along in 1910, light
weight, durable, easy to wash and
dry and today we have Lycra and
the other spandex fibers. Girdles
weigh a few ounces, are machine
washable, and perspiration resis-
tant, but that give thes the kind of
figure control formerly possible,
only with heavy, bulky garments.
Women today don't question the
ability of their featherlight foun-
dation garments to shore up sag
ging sacroiliacs and bulging beams,
and still be as comfortable as wear
ing next to nothing at all.

Just before the turn of the CEN
tury, the big news in unmention-
ables was rust-proof corsets.
Today it's the new synthetic fib-
ers that, when woven into three
ounce underpinnings, are stronger
than whalebone and more supple
than a second skin.
Between these two milestones
lies the uplifting saga of the two
way stretch.
Now as we edge into summer
weather it's especially easy to SYM
pathize with women of six de-
cades ago who confided to each
other their dismay at ruststained
underclothing And then came the
corsets guaranteed rust-free and
recommended for wear beneath,
bathing costumes at the seashore.
Steel was cheaper than whale
bone, which soon was used only
in luxury garments; boning from
East Indian buffalo horns disap-
peared altogether.
But the shape was inexorabley
that of the prevailing fashion. tiny
waists { 13 inches preferably,
balloon hips, bulging stomach. Cor
sets kept their shapes because they
were put over cast iron Steamboat
ed molds from which they were
removed rigid. And the ladies, when
they poured themselves into teh
corsets, kept their rigid shape too.
Suddenly in 1900 time ran out
for the hourglass figure. Within a
few months women were ruler
straight in front, camel-curved in
back, and forced into a gait only
a kangaroo could envy.
1t was progress though. For the
first time hose supporters made
an appearance. Before that the only
corset anchorage was at the waist
and necessitated lacing tight en-
ough TO induce suffocation.

IDEAS ON CHURCH MUSIC

ROCHESTER, N. Y. (AP)-Chur-
ch music should enhance the ex-
perience of worship and not throw
a road-block in the way, a COM
poser told a church arts festival
audience.
Wayne Barlow, whose compost
tions include both concert roper
tory and hturgical music, said chu-
rch music should have less disson-
ance and fewer rhythmic complex
tiles than concert music.
Church congregations should be
given something better than the
trite and undistingusished musical
mucilage that often passes for rel
igfous expression" he a d, "be-
cause that kind of music has only
shallow emotional appeal to senti-
mentality"
