Be Featured at
.Farm-HOme Week

Wednesday, February 8, will
be Dairy Day at this years
Farm and Home Week at the
University of Delaware, accord
ing to DR.. w. R. Hesseltine,
dairy extension specialist.
He said highlights of the
dairy program will include a
tour of the new University

wards to outstanding dairymen
and Dairy Herd Improvement
Association supervisors, as well
as several presentations by out
standing speakers.
Some of the speakers include:
Wayne O'Dell, dairy researcher
with Pennsylvania State Uni
versity, discussing "Remodeling
Milk for the Future" and Kaye
Andrus, dairyman from Ash
ford, Connecticut, explaining
"How | Make Money in the
Dairy Business"
DR.. Stewart Johnson, agricul-
tural economist from the Uni
versity of Connecticut, has two
topics, Obtaining Maximum
Benefits from Milk Orders" and
Making Credit Work for You" /"
He is widely accepted as an
authority on milk marketing.
He has served on the New York
Milkshed Price Committee and
has been a member or consult
ant to several groups working
on Federal Milk Orders, class
prices, butterfat differentials,
transportation differentials and
other milk marketing problems
in the Northeast. He has also
made a study of milk distribu-
ton and pricing in Great Brit
ain. - ~~-~
Hesseltine said additional de-
tails of the program will be
announced later.

When l was a boy back on
the farm, the barn door right
beside the hay chute was my
Dads favorite place for import
ant figures and records. He al
ways felt it had certain ad-
vantages ever a piece of paper
it wasn't so likely to blow
away or get lost. Besides, in
bad weather he could do his
figuring and watch it rain, too.
Of course, Dad, in his day,
didn't worry much about in
come tax. That was something
for the Wall Street tycoons and
Dad was only a country boy.
But it's different today. Almost
everyone has to pay some in
come tax or at least file a tax
return. Let's admit that most
of the financial records kept on
the farm today are kept for the
purpose of tax filing.
Farming since Dads day has
changed from "a way of life"
to a highly complex and COM
petitive business venture. Mod
ern farming has a multitude of
cash expenses and receipts and
large capital investments with
their high depreciation costs.
The chances are that the farm
er who still attempts to keep
his records ION the barn door"
or Gin his head" is paying more
tax than necessary.
It's not hard to keep track
of the big receipts such as the
milk checks, the sale of wheat,
and the bouncing check you
got for Old Bessie the COW.

Robert Stevens,
Plant Specialist,
Complies Hints

TITS not hard to grow house
plants. Just treat them like peo-
ple." says Mr.. Robert F. Stew
ems, ext e n sion horticulturist,
University of Delaware.
Like humans, plants need shell
ter, light warmth, nourishment
and a little loving care. Sup
piled with these necessities of
life, plants become strong, heal
thy and attractive home decora-
tions.
Most people feel comfortable
at household temperatures be-
tween 70 and rs degrees. So do
the plants. wever, some
plants such as geraniums do a
little better at temperatures be-
tween 65 and 70 degrees but
turning the furnace down at
night and keeping them in the
cool part of the house solves
this problem.
Thirsty plants, like thirsty
people, never grow well. The
soil needs to be kept moist at
all times. However, Mr.. Stew
ems warns against letting excess
water accumulate in the bottom
of the pots.
Sunlight is necessary ingred-

to go south from the state to pro-

full race segregation on interstate
carriers left Minneapolis Saturday
June 10.
They went first to Nashville
where they were briefed on tao

them.
In the second group which Is
being organized in the Twin Cities
it is expected that Elijah McIn-
tosh, son of a st. Paul minister,
and student at Arkansas A. & M
will join the party.
The Minnesota group expected
jail sentences and even mistreat-
ment in the jails because of their
stand for equality.
Because over 100 persons have
been Jailed for defying the local
segregation laws it has become
necessary to transfer prisoners
held in Jackson to the Mississippi
state penetentiary in the Mississ-

Mr., wilkins said that Negroes

10 tempt them to downgrade the
fundamental Importance of legal

The NAACP will not throw

cedures," he said.
I'VE believe, for example that
the way to test a law is to set up

and get a determination" he said.
I'VE do not believe you can test
a law and get it thrown out by
staying in jail. For after one
spends 80 or 40 days in Jail, the
law Is still on the statute books
and still constitutes a support for
segregation.
But we of the NAACP do not
sneer at those who choose to stay
in Jail, for they are thus register

Mr.. wilkins pointed out that

CORE, he conferred in the NAA-
CP national office on the itinerary.
1T was their project, but we
altered NAACP units in every

THE point is that a telephone
call about a Freedom Ride In 1861
IS a powerful and persuasive act
