The short flight down-range from

of the following rules:

Ride on the right side of the road /;
obey all traffic control regulations and
use proper hand and arm signals for

When cycling with others, ride in

Save stunting and showing-off fol

Never try to squeeze in between two
lanes of traffic
At busy intersections it is safest to
dismount and walk the bike across.
At night the bike should be equip

Timely Warning.

We are sorry to have to interject
sombre note in the otherwise joyous OBJ
servance of Spring.
Our warning has to do with bicycles.
Now that the good weather is setting
in, children will be dragging their bikes
out of storage places and taking to the
streets and highways.
If these ardent cyclists don't know
the proper and safe way to handle their
bikes they can be easily involved in
dangerous traffic situations. Last year
the National Safety Council points
out-55O lives were lost in bicycle ac-
cidents, the heaviest toll since 1949.

Babson Park, Mass. June 20.
This is the time Of year when
young people graduating from
high school and college face the
big task Of finding a job. Not
just any job to secure spending
money, but one which can lead
to a useful career. For many,
this looms as the biggest hurdle
Of their adult life. Success can
mean a rewarding life, but fail
ure may take away enthusiast
and initiative. Hence, I feel that
this is an appropriate time to
devote a column to some funda-
mental population trends which
may determine future employ
ment patterns and opportunities.
THE CURRENT EMPLOYMENT
TIRE
One Of the Kennedy Admins
tration's biggest headaches is
the problem Of reducing unem-
ployment. Since the current up
ward phase Of the business cycle
began in 1861, personal income
from salaries and wages has
risen by $35 billion to a new
record rate, up 12-1/2&. In
dustrial production has advanced
1870. Despite these impressive
gains, employment has been able
to post only a 3& rise and un-
employment shows little real
improvement.
Attenuation is often blamed
for our unemployment diff
ficulties. The real truth is, how
ever, that work crews have had
to be trimmed down to efficient
proportion because Of such
factors as the shrinkage Of
profit margins, costs Of higher
wage and fringe benefits, and
soaring taxes which employers

checkered-colored material, a
tiny pump organ from Germany,
and a massive useful desk from
Europe are just a few Of the
things that caught my eye and
made their house so attractive.
They have made a darling patio
in their back yard and have
covered the area with old brick,
and their pitch black furniture

the garden most attractive. They
have both worked hard, but their
end result certainly is reward

The Green Thumb

Soybean planting is well
underway now, and all we need
is favorable growing conditions.
Each year most of you soybean
growers try different varieties,
fertilizers, weed killer and
other cultural practices to see
which practice or combination
of practices will give you the
best soybean yields. However,
at harvest time 1t is always
difficult to take the time to ac-
curately measure the diff
ferences with your combine.
Therefore, the Delaware Soy
bean Improvement Program will
be continued again this year.
We will take yield samples from
your different treatments to get
an accurate comparison. If you
have not entered this program
yet, contact us as soon as pos
sible at our County Extension
Office, located at the University
of Delaware Substation.
The Delaware Soybean King
will be selected from the en-
tries In this improvement pro-
gram. Why not shoot for so or
so bushels of beans and enter
this program? Try new prac-
Itices at least on a small
scale and surprising things
may result.
However, whether or not you
enter the program, do not for
get that the soybean crop needs
80 pounds Of P2 O5 and go
pounds of K2O for a good yield.
|Starve the soybean and you may
be hungry this winter also.

Alfalfa weevil damage is con-

Most Of the fall treated fields

eliminates the damage to the

to drive over the growing alfalfa

POPULATION TRENDS
AND EMPLOYMENT

the odds will be mounting againSt
them in the years ahead. Since
the new worker group lacks higf
skills and experience, we have
the makings of a chronic sore
spot which could cause serious
economic and sociological head
aches later on.
WHAT POPULATION AND
EMPLOYMENT FIGURES SAY
These young adults may, how
ever, hold the key to further
prosperity. Not only do they
constitute a mighty potential for
lifting demand and consumption,
but they could "beef up" the
productive portion of the popu-
lation. However, this potential
can be realized only If these
young adults can find suitable
employment. l am certain that
there will be opportunities, and
attractive ones at that, for those
prepared for careers in science,
engineering, medicine, COM
merce, and education.
Those lacking the aptitude or
funds to attend college need not
get discouraged. There is a
trend toward scarcity of skilled
and semi skilled technical help.
This mechanical and scientific
age is opening up many op-
portunities for "blue collar"
workers. Those who are willing
to pursue the proper training
can earn a good weeks pay,
but only after they have ac-
quired that training. This means
postponing marriage to a later
date. I am optimistic on young
people. They are our nation's
best asset. My plea is that they
be told Of the conditions ahead
and reminded that employment is

must pay for their workers.
THE CHANGING POPULATION
STRUCTURE


Another factor which has kept
unemployment at an uncomfort-
ably high level is the rising tide
of young people entering the
labor force. What we are con-
tending with now is only the
frontal wave of the upturn in the
birth rate of the late 'thirties.
A more sizeable increase in
lob seekers still lies ahead when
the baby boom of the 'forties
makes itself felt on the labor
scene.
This mushrooming Of the
reservoir Of manpower is the
primary reason for the sticky
rate of unemployment. That the
economy is now barely able to
absorb the influx Of new workers
into the labor force is a symp-
tom Of poor economic health,
considering the fact that busi-
ness has been en- Dying two years
Of high activity.
THE VULNERABLE GROUP
Projections Of population n
trends indicate that between now
and 1870, especially after 1865,
two age groups should show the
largest increase. These are the
Is 19 year-olds and the 20 "a
bracket. This means that in the
second half Of this decade, the
economy will face a big task in
finding jobs for these new
comerS.
These statistics seem to me
to be advising students to take
their educ alton seriously. Un-
skilled and uneducated workers
are finding It progressively
more difficult to find Jobs. And

he is briefing General Curtis

1t involves a lot of details.
Each day seems so full this

usually garden a little before
he enters that "Ham Shack.

had three trees and bushes In
our yard that we were about
to yank out and toss in the

Farm And Hom e
News
Farmers are constantly look

Farmers are constantly look
ing for ways to influence the
prices they get for the things they
sell. Their search has been pretty
much In vain. AS individuals and
even operating in groups, farm
ers haven't been too successful In
changing the prices they receive.
This lack of influence In the
market place has prompted a
lot of legislation designed to
strengthen the farmers hand.
Marketing orders, quotas, and
production controls are all aim
ed at this problem. The theory
behind these is that farmers
operating as Independents have
no way of effectively controlling
the quantity produced and there
fore the price received.
Government programs design
ed either to limited production
or regulate the flow of a COM
modify to market by use of mar
keting orders we're designed to
accomplish through Legislative
action what farmers have not
done as individuals.
The failure of some govern
ment programs to get the desired
results and the desire of farmers
to try to solve their own prob
lens has prompted farmers to
set up their own supply control
ling groups-or bargaining as
sociattons. These associations
as cooperatives or pri-
vate groups try to gain control
OF the supply Of a crop and ther
bargain with buyers for more
favorable prices.
In some areas farmers who
sell to a particular canary have
banned together to bargain with
the company. There have been
some feeble attempts on the part
Of brotler growers to bargain
with their feed. manufacturers or
professors for better contracts.
The limited success of a few
and the failures of others to ac-
complish their objective high
er prices has kept the idea
from snow-ba1ling. Reasons for
these failures or at best qualified
successes include; a lack OF
strong leadership, poor manage
ment, unrealistic price demands
and failure to control enough OF
the total production to demand
a price.
Another factor that has contri-
buted to many failures Is the
misconception that bargaining
should concern price alone. Any
effort based on this single factor
is doomed TO failure.
When a farmer group bargains
with a professor 1t has to con-
slider other factors such as sup
ply and demand, quality and uni
formity of product, number OF
uses for the product and exist
ing alternatives and synthetics
available.
Although most professors are
willing to bargain, they will go
only SO far. If this limit is
reached they may close up or
move to a new location. At one
time California asparagus grow
ers produced 90 percent of the
nation's supply. Through over
pricing they have reduced their
market to only so percent of the
total output.
There are many worthwhile
gains to be reaped from farmer
bargaining. And there is little
doubt that persistent but unspec-
tacular growth will occur In the
years ahead. Much of this bar
gaining will benefit farmers.
While some will surely price the
farmers involved out of a market.
Bargaining must be based on a
price that is realistic, and best
In the long run for both farmer
and professor.
