Vapaa Answers
Questions ON '62
Wheat Program

Wheat farmers in Kent Coun-
ty have been asking for more
details, on the rules about cross
compliance under the 1862
Wheat Sterilization program.
Here are a couple of their
questions, with answers from
George Vapaa, county agent:
Question: Does next years
wheat program involve cross
compliance with other crops in
any way?
Answer: No. With wheat
there is no cross-compliance re-
quirement such as there is in
the barley, corn, and grain sor-
ghum feed grain programs.
Question: If man own S
more than one wheat farm or
has an interest in the wheat
crop on more than one farm,
must there be cross-compliance
between these farms?
!. Answer: No. Each ia m
stands as a separate unit under
the 1862 wheat program. If a

Regional Short
Course to Hear
Top PouItrymen

Delmarva broiler producers
will hear some valuable first
hand reports at the Regional
Poultry Short Course, Septem-
Der 20, at the Georgetown Sub
station.
! According to Ray Lloyd,
University of Delaware poultry
specialist, some of the top
poultrymen in the country will
appear on the day-long pro-
gram.
1t starts at 900 a. m, with
reports from poultrymen who
have toured other broiler pro-
duction areas of the United
States. Following this a num-
Der of broiler research reports
will be presented by faculty
members of the University of
/ Maryland, Virginia Polytechnic
Institute and the University of
Delaware.
! E. P. Riley, veteran broil-
er producer from Georgia, will
report on his broiler house ven
tilation system. Mr.. Riley grows
about one-half million broilers
annually plus a large Matching
egg flock. He has had controll-
ed ventilation in his poultry
houses for the past seven years.
/ A highlight of the days ac-
tivities will be a panel discus
sion by industry leaders titled
Meeting Today's Challenges. "
Members of this panel will in

Lloyd said. "Poultrymen inter
ested in keeping pace with the
rapidly changing broiler indus
try will benefit greatly from
this program"
There is no registration fee
and it is open to the public.

The Fat Makes
The Flavor Says
Kent Club Agent

Jack Spratt could eat no fat
and boy did he have a problem.
Without any fat Jack got moth
ing but dry tasteless meat, ac-
cording to Mrs. Marion MacDon-
aid, Kent County Club Agent.
Most of us would like to buy
meat with no fat she says but
its the fat that makes the flavor
Without certain amounts of fat
in our meats we cannot have
til e S e qualities. Research has
shown that most of the social
ed appealing taste comes from
the fat in the meat. This is not
actually a taste, but an aroma
which is detected with sense
of smell.
Actually, we have only four
different major taste sensations
sweet, sour, bitter or salty, ac-
cording to Mrs. Macdonald. The
pleasing flavors we experience
in the eating of good meats
come principally from our sense
of smell. If you don't believe
this-remember that last bad
head cold you had; did meat or
any other food have much flaw
or then?

Some Wheat to
Be Discounted

Discounts of 20 cents per
bushel will apply to four wheat
varieties next year, according to
Jacob Zimmerman, chairman,
State Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation Committee.
This discount will apply to
the price-support rates of the
1862 wheat crop because of in
ferior milling or baking qualit-
les of these varieties, he said.
Varieties of the Soft Red Win
ter class named as undesirable
for the 1862 wheat support pro-
gram include Kan Queen, Kaw-
vale, Nured, and Seabreeze.
Zimmerman pointed out that
the discount is designed to dis
courage production of the un-
desirable varieties, also to les
sen the possib ility of U. S.
wheat of inferior quality finding
its way into domestic and ex-
port channels, AcreageS OF
these varieties have been de-
clining in recent years.
The initiation of this discount
program will hasten the reduc-
ton in acreage of these unde-
sirable varieties according to
Zimmerman.

the program on one farm, il
won't affect his payments OF
price support on another.
Mr.. Vapaa wants to remind
growers, however, that the mar.
keting quota penalties for ex.
cess wheat will be 65 percent
of parity in 1862 instead of the
current As percent. Also, to be
eligible for price support, the
growers must comply with the
minimum 10 percent acreage
diversion and put that diverted
land to conservation uses. This
must be in addition to acre.

Pure Food & Drug Clears HeptachlOr
For Alfalfa WeeviI Control

It's a dark day for alfalfa
weevils in Delaware. Another
chemical has been added to the
list for controlling this menace
to alfalfa.
Farmers may now use hepta-
chlor which has just been grant
ed label clearance or Dieldrin
which was approved last year.
The Pure Food and Drug Ad-
ministration has approved Hep
tachlor for fall application only
on alfalfa. This means after the
last cutting and before Novem-
Der Is. The rate that has been
approved is y of actual
heptachlor per acre. This should
give excellent results.
Heptachlor may be applied in
two ways: in granular form or
as a fertilizer mixture. Don't
try mixing Heptachlor with the
normal fertilizer yourself. You
will get an uneven spread and
poor control. Let your fertiliz-
er dealer take care of this prob
lem. Heptachlor does not have
clearance as a spray for al
falfa.
Dieldrin should be used at
the rate of / lb, actual dieldrin
per acre. The growers may
choose any of the following
foundations: emulsifiable con-
centrate, wettable powder, gran
ular or fertilizer mixture. For
example, if emulsifiable concen-
trate is selected, use 2/3 gal
Ions of a l.5 lb. concentrate per
acre.
Dieldrin can be applied any

!JFK Tells Labor And Management To Stay in Line

WASHINGTON, LR- President Kennedy has appealed to manage ment and labor to keep the na- tional interest in mind in their disputes.
 If they don't cooperate for the general good, the President warn ed significantly, an impatient fed eral government will take a great CT hand in getting the two sides together.
 This was the implicit, clear message in Kennedy's talk yester- day to a group of top business executives and labor union chiefs. He had called them together to make them policy-making part ners in his administration.
 'We are going into a critical phase of our national life," Ken nedy told the Gilman labor-man- agement public advisory panel. "We want to keep our economy free, we want labor to be free, we want management to be free. And we want to keep the fed eral government in its proper role.
 But we all, regardless of our politics, we all have to come to the conclusion that the general welfare is involved i'll every act we take"
 Kennedy appealed first for the group to give direction to the general movement of wages and prices" This was in addition to his appeals for advice on job and economic problems, machine dis placement of workers, foreign trade competition and a host of other administration headaches.
 The advisers-including Henry Ford II, auto magnate; George Meany, president of the AFL-CIO, and Ralph McGill, publishers of the Atlanta nstitution-buckled down to their jobs.
