Milford chronicle., 1962-02-09

Every soybean growing area is
rapidly increasing their acreage OF
this crop and as the supply eX-
ceeds the demand, buyers can and
viii become more particular about
getting good quality. If other areas
can supply beans Of higher quality,
why should they buy from the Del
marya peninsula?
Several growers in this area are
presently producing high quality
beans Of Hood, Hill and Bethel va
rieties without reducing yiel d 5.
Kent is an Improvement over Clark
and Wabash in regards to the
"moIdy bean" disease, bat it is
Very susceptible to purple stain.
1t is also an excellent yielder The
Ogden variety, although a high
yielder, is undesirable because OF
its green color
Therefore, lets close the stable
door before the horse gets out
not afterward. Let's do what We
can to improve soybean quality
now not after we lose our mar
let's, concluded Ralph.
Milford chronicle., 1962-02-09
Soybeon Quality

Are soybeans important here on
Delmarva? The statement, ASK a
foolish question, and you will get
a foolish answer" would certainly
apply here because we all realize
the great Importance Of sOybeans
here on Delmarva On the other
hand, We are not trying very hard
to improve our quality and expand
our markets for this crop. says Ed
Ralph, Sussex Associate County A
gent.
Trash, dirt, moldy beans, mixed
varieties, weed seed and other un-
desirable things are found in Del
marva soybeans, and this is com
monty known by buyers and peo-
pie in other SOybean producing
areas. True, we are unfortunate in
having high humidity and rain that
may greatly increase diseases, but
We have yellow varieties of soy
beans that are resistant to the dis
eases and will produce high quail
ity beans in this area
We have chemicals that viii
generally give satisfactory weed
control in fields where cultural
practices have not been sufficient.
Proper adjustments and driving
speeds of combines at harvest time
will greatly reduce dirt, TT d h,
cracked beans and field losses The
use of certified seed and proper
cleaning of the combine Will result
in pure varieties being offered for
sale.
Combine the above practices with
the proper planting date, spacing,
lining, fertilization and h rye t
date and other sound prOduc-
ton practices, and we should have
higher yields of good quality yell
low soybeans being produced on
Delmarva.
We have been able to sell all Of
the sOybeans grown on the PENN
sula up to the present time but
why should we wait until our soy
beans will not be bought before we
concentrate on improving quality
Milford chronicle., 1962-02-09
Protect Pets From Fleus

1t is fairly simple to protect cats
and dogs from annoying fleas. says
Ed. Ralph, Sussex Associate Coun-
" Agent. Although cats are sensi-
tive to certain compounds, there
are a variety Of materials available
that give effective control.
Insecticides most often used for
cats include: Rotenone. SEWN. and
MelathiOn Seven is more effective
than Rotenone the agent reports,
and cats don't seem TO like the
odor Of Malathion.
Any of these insecticides are eff
fective in protecting dogs from
fleas Also MethOXychlor, Coral
and DDT compounds are effective.
DO NOT use compounds contain
ing DDT or Coral on cats. It is
wise to read the label on the con-
tainer carefully to insure that it is
safe to use on cats.
All of these chemicals are avail
able in specially prepared COM
pounds for either dogs or cats.
Some may be used on both. They
are available as dusts. in shaker
containers. as a powder to be used
in baths, and in pressuriZed spray
cans
Ralph cautions, when treating
your pet, be sure to dust or spray
the sleeping area. Many flea larvae
may be found here.
Remember, fleas do not stay on
the host animal all the time, he
adds. They may actually live on
