Egg Production
.Drop-Off Laid
To Worms, Lice

If egg production in a flock
of laying birds should drop for
no apparent other reason, the
poultrymen can suspect worms
or lice, notes county agent
George Vapaa.
A heavy infestation of round
worms can play havoc with pro-
duction at this time of year.
Have some birds checked by
your poultry pathologist and fol-
low his recommendations.
Poultrymen seldom realize
the effect lice can have on egg
production. A heavy infestation
of lice can cause excessive irri-
tation to the bird by gnawing
through the skin and drawing
blood. This can cause restless
ness which will definitely affect
feed consumption and in turn
the egg production.

farmer in making his drainage

Soil Conservation Servic e
technical assistance is made
available without charge to
Kent County farmers through
their Soil Conservation District.
Upon request to the District,
these conservation technicians
will help any farmer develop
and carry out drainage or other
soil conservation pra tic e S.
These conservation technicians
work directly with the farmer
and find winter planning more
advantageous for him.
1862 is expected to be a busy
year for establishing such con-
servation measures as farm
drainage. 1861 has already prov
ed to be the busiest farm drain
age year ever experienced in
the Soil Conservation District.
26 miles of farm drainage ditch
were constructed by county
farmers, benefting over 900
acres of their cropland. Farm
ers in Kent County have found
the dollars invested in good
drainage have always resulted
in quick cash returns.
Most farmers plan their drain
age system in connection with
a complete soil conservation
plan for their farm. They then
follow through by establishing
portions at a time over a per-
iod of years. Loans for soil
conservation are readily avail
able and many farmers prefer
to establish their complete
drainage needs at one time.
If you have farm drainage
headache, or any other soil con-
servation problem, you have an
opportunity during the
winter months to plan for their
solution. Soil Conservation Dis
trict is a good place to start.

Uncertified
Seed Ups Cost
Farmers Told

How much are farmers pay
ing for enough seed to plant
an acre of soybeans?
This question was asked John
GerWig, agronomist at Rutgers
University, when he appeared at
the Delaware Crop Improve
ment Associations Annual Short
Course recently. The answer
he gave was quite surprising.
Between three dollars and so
dollars per acre." Alert farm
ers who are using certified seed
are spending about five dollars
per bushel. Those who plant
uncertified seed are paying is
to 20 cents a bushel less, he
points out, but it may be cost
ing them as much as $50 an
acre more.
Here's how Gerwig explains
it. A survey of New Jersey
farmers representing two per-
cent of the soybean acres of
the State revealed that certified
seed was planted on only 16
percent of the total acres. Eigh-
ty-four percent were seeded
with uncertif1ed seed.
A deeper investigation reveal
ed that the certified seed plant
ed had an average termination
of SO percent while the uncerti-
fled seed had a 65 percent germ
ination. Even more startling,
Gerwig said, was the fact that
Is percent of the uncertified
seed that was sampled had a
termination percentage of less
than so percent.
1t was a fairly simple task to
visit the farmers who used this
low termination seed. 1t was
planted by six farmers in six
different fields. Most of them
bought the seed from their
neighbors or "swapped' seed
with them. They had no germ
ination test on the seed, and
they credited dry weather for
the poor showing it made.
Five out of six of them "a
bandoned the crop, either disk
ing it up and reseeding or al
lowing the field to lay INTENDED
and unharvested.
Gerwig figures $50 an acre
as fair cost for planting a
field of beans and receiving no
return on it. Uncertified seed
must be blamed for the failure
on these acres, he adds.
Not many farmers can afford
to gamble at these odds. 1t
costs only 10 cents an acre
more to use certified SEED, Oer-
wig concludes and that is a
cheap premium for such good
insurance.
When asked what is the diff
ference between certified and
uncertified seed, he pointed out
that certified seed is of known
origin; it has been carefully in
spected for purity, termination
and the absence of diseases and
noxious weeds. A purchaser OF
certified seed is getting seed
with 5000 percent termination
and less than one percent for
eign m a terial and noxious
weeds.
On the other hand, uncerti-
fled seed is "just good seed"

usually too appealing to an ele-
vator operator for crushing. So
he cleans it and sells it as seed.
Gerwig insists that planting
these beans as seed is too big
a gamble for farmers to take.
