HURRIED ALKALOms extracted from an ornamental
periwinkle shrub known by such names as Little
Pinkie" and Bright Eyes" are being hailed today
as new major weapons against cancer. Medical
scientists reporting the remarkable activity Of
tracts from Vinca F0seu use such terms as dramatic
effects -. tumOr tissue seemed to melt away"
So far one alkalOid from Vinca has been
aPprOvedby the Food and Drug Administration for
use by prescribing physicians, having been tested
for the past sx years by cancer specialists the world
over. Other useful pharmaceuticals are sure to
follow. They have already demonstrated impressive
ability to check not just but several kinds of
cancer. Perhaps even more important, the amazing
scientific coincidence that resulted in these life
extending drugs has spanked an about search for
other plants with promise in cancer treatment.

DR.. Jonathan L HartweIl, in charge of botanical
drug research at the National Cancer Institute,

15O Tour Weed Demonstrations
Prior TOFarrn & Home Field Day

$50 farmers and commercial
Representatives got a prevew of
Farm and Home Field Day at
a weed control meeting held
at the University of Delaware
Georgetown Substadon recent
ly. Under the guidance of Drs.
Richard Cole and william Nit
chell agronomists, and Profess
sor E. M. Rain horticultural
ist, they toured corn, soybean
and vegetable plots to see first
hand the effects of certain chem
icals In controlling weeds. They
saw many of the same things
that visitors to Farm and Home
Field Day on August 9TH will
see. AS DR.. Cole told the group
'+we're seeing some things that
won't be showing up by Field
Day Time". Then he added that
If a fellow wanted to, he could
ger a better idea of the real
effect of some chemicals by
observing the plots now and
again at Field Day.
Farm and Home Field Day
is an annual event held at the
substadon to give the people
of the state an opportunity to
see the research In field crops,
vegetables, fruit and poultry
that is being done there. More
than rs different research pro-
jects will be shown at this years
event.
Soybeans seemed to draw the
most interest and questions dur
ing the weed control tour. The
visitors wanted to know which
chemicals did the best job and
how much they cost to use. Cole
explained that up to this point
no one chemical seems to be the
complete answer to all the weed
control problems. Some do an
excellent job of controlling
broad-leafweeds but won't touch
narrow-leaf weeds. Others con-
troll narrow-leaf weeds but won't
affect broad-leaf weeds. And
others don't seem to have much
effect on either. Sill others
give excellent weed control but
also damage the young soybean
plants.
Cole was enthusiastic about
several of the products espe-
cially when grower plans at
least one cultivation. Where no
tillage is planned he showed
plots that had good control from
a mixture of TWO or more COM
mercial weed control products.
He pointed to one plot that he
called his Especial deluxe
treatment. There appeared to
be almost perfect weed control
and the plot had not been cul-

Hog Prices
Holding Steady
Outlook Good
by w. T. McAllister
Extension Farm Management
Specialist

There's good news for Del
aware hog producers-7farmers
are holding steady on hog pro-
duction. This means hog pri-
ces should be at profitable lev
els for the next year or so.
Farmers saved so million
pigs this spring according to
USDA reports. This is scar
cely | percent more than they
saved year ago. And its only
half as much as is needed to
match the population growth.
Another good indication is
that farmers said In June that
they would have 6.2 million
sows narrowing from June l
through November. That's only
l percent more than farrowed
last fall. If farmers stay true
to their intentions, supplies
won't be large enough to over
burden the market and depress
prices.
Market supplies this summer
will be one or two percent
larger than last year. Also
there will be more competi-
ion from beef and broilers.
Supplies of both may be up
more than 5 percent. Market
supplies for October, Novem :
Der and December won't be
much different from those of
last fall.
In general it can be said
that hog farmers have done an
exceptionally fine job In bal
ancing production with demand
over the last several years thus
assuring themselves of modest
profits. The twelve months "a
head should be equally profit
able.
Smyrna times., 1963-07-25

tivated. ''This would cost
grower $35 an acre for chem
icals alone. This compares to
about SIS per acre for most OF
the single product applications.
Cole said this test was set
up to test some principles and
wasn't planned on a practical
basis. ''It does prove that chem
icals can give almost complete
control of weeds without dam
age to the beans. Maybe some
day we'll be able to do this
kind of a job for five or ten
dollars an acre.
All of the chemicals being
tested are brand name pro-
ducts that have been cleared
for commercial use and are
sold as weed control chemi-
Gals.
In the corn plots Cole and
a research assistant R. w.
Feeny showed two chemicals
that are doing an excellent job
of controlling most common
weeds. AS expected Atrazine did
the best job, but to the surprise
of most, ,-Atrazine In liquid form
was performing better than
granular applications. The 9TH
er product that seemed to be
showing up especially we'll was
EPIC a formula that has caus-
ed some damage to corn plants
In addition to the weeds. Feeny
said theywere seeing only slight
injury to the corn, and ex-
cellent weed control.
One other test that drew a
lot of interest was an exper-
iment to determine how much
Atrazine remains in the soil
the next season following a
granular application on corn.
To determine this Cole and
crops research associate Ed
Wisk planted a cover crop of
wheat and crimson clover last
fall on plots where Atrazine
granules had been tested that
summer on corn. This spring
they plowed up half of the
cover crop and seeded soy
beans. The other half of the
cover crop was left to demon
strate the value of such crop
as an indicator of Atrazine
damage. The soybean plots re-
flected very closely what the
researchers had determined by
observing the cover crop prior
to planting--that certain levels
of AtraZine have a harmful eff
feet on crops that follow them.
Damage to the cover crop
and the beans varied from to-
tai kill to almost no affect de-
pending on the strength, "a
mount of chemical and whether
it was applied in granules or as
a liquid. In all cases the gran
ular applications resulted In the
greatest damage on crops that
followed them. Three pounds Of
Atrazine granules apphedprior
to planting the corn last spring
resulted In total failure of both
cover crop and soybeans.
Atrazine granules are moi
recommended for general use
In Delaware.
One thing is for sure, ac-
cordtng to DR.. Mitchell, its
too risky for the average pro-
ducer to take chances with At
razine. 'Not many farmers
could stand a bean crop failure
like some we have here. One
of the best ways to avoid this
is to use cover crop as an
indicator of the amount of dam
age that can be expected. If
the cover crop is damaged the
