Suggests New
Barley Variety

Farmers looking for an early
barley for a double cropping
system will be interested in a
new variety that has been de-
veloped, according to George
Vapaa, Kent county agricultur-
al agent. It's called Early Wong.
Early Wong is the same as
the regular Wong variety ex-
cept in maturity. Wong has
been a favorite with farmers
for the past few seasons be-
cause of its stiff straw and di-
sease resistance, the agent says.
Early Wong can be harvested
five to seven days earlier than
Wong and is just as resistant
to lodging and disease.
This new variety will give
Delaware farmers a better

Farmers Reach
New High in
Efficiency

American farmers reached
new high marks in efficiency OF
labor and total production last
year, according to a recent re-
port by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture. In 1860, they
turned out 3 percent more pro-
ducts with 3 percent less labor
than the year before.
In its annual revision of the
publication, Changes in Farm
Production and Efficiency" the
Department reported that last
year one farm worker provided
food, fiber, and smoking for
more than 26 persons, including
himself, at home and abroad.
This was 2 more than he was
able to supply in 1859 and a
dozen more than in l949.
The report provides statistical
comparisons of 1860 with earl
ier years in production of crops
and livestock, man hours of la
Dor, use of fertilizer and ma
chinery, and output per man
hour in major types of farm
ing. Free copies of the report

Price Support
Extended on '6l
Crop Soybeans

The Department of Agricul-
ture has announced that no
change will be made in its earl
ier decision to extend price sup
port on l96l-crop soybeans of
eligible producers by means of
warehouse-Storage loans and
purchase agreements through
qualified producer-owned and
producer-controlled cooperative
soybean marketing associations.
According to R. Harry Will
son, chairman, Kent County Ag-
ricultural Sterilization and Con-
servation Committee, the De-
partment's announcement fol-
lows a careful review of state
ments-both pro and con-sub-
mitted by interested persons.
The Paramount consideration
underlying the decision was the
best interests of farmer produc-
'erS.
BY combining the benefits
available to individual produc-
ers through the price-support
program with the advantages
they can often obtain through
pooling their soybeans with
those of other producers in mar
keting them, farmers are able
to strengthen their bargaining
power and to take better ad-
vantage of price increases that
generally occur after the har-
vest season.
Eligible producers who prefer
to take advantage of price sup
ports through individual loans
or purchase agreements may
continue to do so as in the past.
