Livestock Study
Farmers in the Mount Joy
area are being asked to sup-
ply pertinent informoaion a-
bout livestock in a survey,
starting May 20, Postmaster
Elmer A, Zerphey hss an-
nounced.
Cards will be delivered to
farm mail boxes, selected at
random on rural routes serv-
el by the Mount Joy post of-
fice.
These semi-annual surveys
are conducted cooperatively
each year by the Post Office
and Agriculture Departments
and serve as a basis for esti-
mating numbers of livestock
on farms; livestock prodyc--
tion; the size of the pig, calf,
lamb and wool crops; and
the number of chickens rais-
ed. This information is of
considerable importance to
farmers, the livestock indus-
try, industries serving agri-
culture, public agencies and
the general public.
Farmers receiving survey
cards have been urged to fill
them out and return them
promptly to mail carriers,
Postmaster Zerphey said.
Ping-pong or table tennis,
was first played at the end
of the 19th century, and was
originated by a sporting
goods dealer in London, Eng-
land.

Over
The
Back
Fence
by Max Smiih
IF YOU have any early
vegetable or flower plants
left in your garden, since the
freezing weather of last week
you might be on the alert for
flea beetles; they are a very
tiny, black insect that eats
small, pinsized holes in the
leaves; they will attack most
any Kind of a plant; the
leaves will look like they
were shot fyll of small holes;
sometimes as much as one-
half of the leaf surface will
be damaged; this will retard
growth and may reduce
yields. I'd suggest the use of
the insecticide, Sevin; two
treatments several days apart
should eliminate the problem.
THE FEEDING of sufficient
amounts of salt to all types
of livestock is very impor-
tant; many producers are of
the opinion that 1 to 2 per
cent in the ration will be
adequate, byt this is not true
in most cases. Some animals
require more salt than others
just as among human beings:
therefore, we should make
an attempt to provide free
choice of salt at all times.
Many leading livestock auth-
orities also insist that loose
salt is much better than block
salt for farm animals: it is
easier for them to get the a-
mount needed. I am inclined
to agree with them because
when some animals require
larger amounts of salt, their
tongues will get sore from
licking the block salt long
before their appetite has been
satisfied; as a result, they do
not get enough salt. The val-
ue of salt in the ration is an
appetizer that makes the ani-

mal eat better and drink
more water; also, adequate
supplies of both salt and min-
erals in the ration stimulates
the action of the digestive
juices in the body. Provide
times.
STRAWBERRY growers who
have made a new planting
this spring should not only
keep the weeds under con-
trol by frequent hand hoeing
or cultivation, but pinch off
the fruit buds before any
blossoms appear. This is diffi-
cult to do in view of the fact
that strawberries are being
eliminated, but for the good
of the plant and next year’s
crop, this should be done. If
the new plants are permitted
to bear fruit, the strength of
the plant will go toward the
fruit and as a resylt, there
will be fewer and weaker
runner plants develope
early this summer. For the
best yield next spring, the
plant should be allowed to
get strong runner plants
early in the season. The sacri-
fice of a few berries this
spring will result in a much
better crop next year.
WE ARE often confronted
with the problem of dairy-
men who get a different but-
terfat test from their D.H.I. A.
milk tester than they do
from their milk plant.. This
has been occurring for years
and no doubt will continue.
in the future. There are many
factors that contrribute {to
the difference; changes in
temperature and humidity,
milking practices, the amount
of exercise, the kind of
grain and roughage, and the
physical condition of the
cow that particular day, are
some of the common causes.
Also, dairymen should realize
that the time covered by the
tests are not the same; DHIA
tests are based ypon one
day’s samples, while the milk
plant tests are a composite of
samples taken throughout the
month. A. variation of 1 to 2
percentage points is not un-
usual and should be accept-
able.

EGGS ARE STILL A
GOOD BUY
Eggs for breakfast are bet-
ter quality and less expen-
sive now than they were 30
years ago, says Herbert Jor-
dan, extension poultry spec-
ialist at Penn State universi-
ty. Eggs have actyally been
on a general - price decline
during this time. This is due
to a good supply and efficien-
cies of the industry as well
as a slight decrease in de-
mand. If egg prices had gone
up the same as the cost of
living, then we would pay
considerably more for eggs
than we do.

the privilege.
