Wheat Vote Polls Announced Polling places for the July 21 referendum on marketing quotas for the 1961 crop of wheat were announced this week by Landis G. Becker, Chairman of i- e Lanca‘> 4f, r County Agricultural Stab h zation and Conservation Committee. Growers eligible to vote in the referendum will be those who will have more than 15 acres of wheat for harvest as grain in 1961 (ex cept growers taking part in the feed wheat program.) Mr. Becker points out that at least two-thirds of the growers voting in the refer endum must approve the quotas if they ?i.- to be come effective. Und •' quot as, marketing penalties will tpply on “excess” wheat re sulting from noncomphance with the farm’s wheat ac reage allottment, and price supports will be available on the crop at not less than 75 per cent of parity—the exact rate to be announced before the vote. On the other hand, if mo re than one-third of the vot ers oppose the quotas, there will be no restrictions on wheat marketing, but allot ments will remain in effect as a condition for price sup port at aO per cenf of panty as directed by law Wheat growers voting in a referendum each year ha ve approved marketing quo tas for the past seven wheat crops The wheat quota ballots may be cast on Thursday, July 21 from Sam to 8 p m at the following places Growers from Conoy, West Donegal, Mt Joy, East Donegal, West Hempfield and Rapho townships, Red Rose Dairv, V> mile south of Florin.

BLUE COMB A disease which attacks growing pullets and young laying chickens. ORIGIN: Not of bacterial origin, but otherwise suggestive of a con tagious or infectious disease. Current view point: Probably a virus disease. SYMPTOMS: Sudden decreased feed consumption, drop in egg product ion, depression and whitish watery diarrhea. Individual birds maj have crop distension, sunken eyes, dark blue combs, shriveled shanks Post Mortem usually shows pale breast muscle resembling the flesh of fish. Crop is often filled with sour-smelling food. Small yel lowish spots may appear on the liver. Enlargement of kidneys is common with the accumulation of urates. CAUTION: Accurate diagnosis is necessary to differentiate between Blue Comb and Fowl Cholera. TREATMENT: Several types of treatment formerly recommended have mostly been-replaced by the use of the Broad Spectrum-antibiotics or a combination of one of these with Furazolidone contained in a highly fortified feed. For treatment of Growing Pullets we recommend the use of our EARLY BIRD No. 50 Medicated Ration. For treatment of Layers we recommend our EARLY BIRD No. 49 Medicated Ration Feed these for 4 to 5 days. We have found them quite effective When a mash and grain program is followed it is well to discontinue the grain and replace it with a limited amount of our EARLY BIRD No. 33 Poultry Fitting Ration.
