In the Wake of The Storm

After weeks of very limited moisture, Chatsworth received a hard downpour Saturday night that resulted in about 4Vi inches of water. Although the ground was dry, the rain came too fast to be entirely absorbed. There was much run-off and consider­able washing. Water ran over the pavement and flares were placed to warn drivers of condi­tions and outline the roadbed.

Several people had four feet or more of water in their cellars. The First Baptist church had two feet of water Sunday morning in the basement. A pump was brought and the water pumped out. They were not able to have a fire and the Sunday school classes all met in the sanctuary. Sunday evening services were canceled. Men of the church met Monday morning with brooms and shovels to clean up the mud deposits left by the flood. A number of homes received help in pumping out basements.

THE CUM&BNO MUSIC CENTER TO GIVE FREE ORGAN LESSONS

From now until May 31, The Gumming Music Center at Coal City, Illinois, will give free dem­onstration Conn Mnuet organ lessons as part of a special nation wide promotion to acquaint the general public with the ease of playing the electronic organ.

According to Rogers W. Gum­ming,owner, there is an accelerat­ing trend on the part of families to have music in the home be­cause the small electronic organ, such as the Conn Minuet, has many features for all-the-family enjoyment including ease of play­ing.

He pointed out the special free lessons are designed for the per­sons who have no knowledge of music and to familiarize those who play piano with the ease of playing the Conn organ.

Cumming said the campaign will be supported wth newspaper advertising to attract persons who have never had any particular musical training. See their ad in this issue.

The special lessons are furnish­ed by C. G. Conn, Ltd., Elkhart, Ind., manufacturers of organs for homes, churches and institutions. Cumming said organs are tradi­tionally associated with churches and theatres but in recent years there has been a widening of the home market.

STATE LAW SETS BRUCELLOSIS CONTROL DEADLINE

j July 1, 1957, is a day for cattle owners in Illinois to circle on their calendars.

By that date all owners of dairy and beef breeding cattle must be cooperating in a plan for brucellosis eradication, explains Norman Krausz, farm law spe­cialist at the U. of I. College of Agriculture.

State law required Grade A 1 milk and cream producers to be

in an eradication program by July 1955. The 1957 deadline ap­plies to herd owners selling milk for human consumption in any form.

Plan for eradication must be approved by the State and Feder­al Department of Agriculture. A herd owner enters into an agree­ment with those agencies, and by following the prescribed proced­ures he can get his herd certified brucellosis-free.

Certification means that two annual tests for brucellosis in the herd have been negative for all animals over six months old. A certificate is then issued by the Department of Agriculture.

The basic brucellosis law, as amended in 1955, also regulates testing procedures, identification, quarantine and disposal of ani­mals that react positively to blood tests.

An infected cow may lose con­dition, and the germs may invade the leg joints. But symptoms of brucellosis infection are usually not visible except for possible abortions. A blood test is the best way to find the disease in an in­dividual animal.

A milk ring test, run on sam­ples of milk from a herd every six months, readily detects the presence of brucellosis in a dairy herd.

To eliminate the disease from your herd, have blood tests made on all swine and cattle on the farm. Isolate reactors and get rid of them as soon as pqssible, since they are a constant threat to healthy animals. Indemnities are currently available from state- federal funds for cattle.

The disease is spread mostly by ; contact The most Important way is bringing diseased animals into

: your herd. Make sure that all j cattle and swine you buy have j been blood-tested before you bring < them to your farm. Isolate and retest them before you add them to the herd. This is a vital safe­guard, says Dr. Bryan.

Practice good farm sanitation and herd management. Raise your own herd replacements If possible

Encourage your neighbors to cooperate In the control program. Although newly purchased ani­mals are the main source of in­fection, brucellosis may be spread by contact of cattle across a fence, by interfarm streams or by visitors to your farm. Bulls play j a minor role In spread of the ! disease.

Calf vaccination Is an optional, control measure. Calves are not j susceptible to brucellosis until i they reach sexual maturity, and clean calves may be raised from infected cows. However, newborn calves nursing infected cows are potential spreaders of the disease.

The country roads have been reported as almost impassable in places during the past week, and one farmer coming to town on Wednesday stated that with four horses on an empty wagon he was compelled to stop many times to allow the horses to rest and to clear the mud out of the wheels. It is such conditions as these which will cause the resi­dents of the farms of Illinois to be deprived of the rural mail de­livery unless something is done to remedy them.

GAS COMPANY TAKINO 8UVREY

Northern Illinois Gas Company started a house-to-house survey in Forrest last week as the first phase of its plans to bring nat­ural gas service to the commun­ity.

The gas utility, which serves 250 communities in northern Illi­nois outside Chicago, recently ob­tained a 50-year franchise to sup­ply natural gas service to Forrest. Actual construction of necessary distribution mains In the village and from the supply tap point about two and half miles west of Forrest must await necessary ap- povals of the plan by the Federal Power Commission and the Illi­nois Commerce Commission.

According to A. W. Barron, district superintendent for the utility, the house-to-house survey is necessary at this time particu­

larly to determine the number of customers interested in gas serv­ice so that the gas company can start planning needed engineering and construction details.

Barron said that the survey would be conducted in Forrest by two of the gas company’s repre­sentatives, Ed Scherer and Charles Wagner.

Arch A. K&botn1603 Sunshine Court

Oakland 21, Calif.

Hello.I am still at large, luckily for

me.I do a bit of cooking at home.

Sometimes in my French chef- fing, I try to improve upon old recipes.

Rigged up a stew the other day. Hoped to improve the usual meat and vegetable combination by adding a bit of spaghetti.

Tasted pretty good, too, until someone inquired, "whose idea was it to add the shredded co­conut?"

—A—The virus epidemic seems to be

easing up here. But lately I find myself using more time getting rested than I do getting tired. (No great change in that re­spect.)

You may remember that I al­ways did love to leap out of bed at the crack of 9:30 a.m., and ring for my valet. Of course, I have no valet right now — but I do have a bell.

There’s no doubt about the ben­efit derived from that cold shov- er first thing in the morning: and like yourself, I continue to lie about it.

—A-Some people write to their Con­

gressman. I'd rather write to you. The Congressman might have his secretary mail me a batch of his speeches. But you never talk back.

Answering my fan mails is one of my lightest chores. Glad I don’t have to rent a battery of phones, like that Winchell fellow!

This brief note is intended to let you know how the wind blows on the West Coast. And also, like Mr. Hallmark, "we thought enough of you to send our very best.”

ARCH

Herscher, competing for the last time in the V. V. had a final fling at the honors Wednesday afternoon at Onarga, fininshing with 55% points, thereby winning the first place trophy. Onarga Military School received the sec­ond place trophy by scoring 35 points; Onarga had 32Mi points, Forrest 31%, Roberts-Thawville 17V4, Kempton 1514, Saunemin 12%, Chatsworth 514, Cullom 4V4.

High point winners in various events were Herscher in 220, 100- yard dash, pole vault, freshman relay, low hurdles; Onarga Mili­tary 880 relay, 440; Kempton, 880; Forrest, broad jump and high jump; Roberts-Thawville, 120 yard high hurdles; Onarga, discus.

Herscher won the first two places in pole vaulting, earning 9 points. Chatsworth, Cullom, For­rest and Onarga tied on the pole vault so third, fourth and fifth places were given and points di­vided, each receiving 114 points.

New records were set in the freshman relay, 49.8, breaking the old 55 and Verniel Dehm’s record in the hurdle was broken by .1 of a second, the new record being 22.4. Chatsworth placed third in the freshman relay with Ben­nett, Neuzel, Anderson and Ford running. Feely pole vaulted and Gene Sharp picked up a point in the 220.

It was a “bad day” for the coaches, one complained of losing two boys, one with a sprained ankle and another with a pulled tendon, someone else lost a can­didate to the measles. Coach Herb Raab really had the alibis if he cared to use them. His star high hurdler, Roger Sargeant. came down with the measles the day of the meet, Feely injured his back polevaulting and was unable to compete in any other events; Huels had a sore leg, and Sharp recovering from a previous injury was unable to take part in all of his usual events. Chatsworth had no entry in high hurdles and did not enter the 880 relay because they couldn’t muster enough man­power. Coach wouldn’t alibi, he would just say, “it isn't our day to win,” but those are some of the hindering causes.

Shortly after the House met John B. Williams, (D) of Miss., moved the absence of a quorum. A little later came the same mo­tion from W. J. Bryan (D) of South Carolina; followed by one a few minutes later by James Davis (D) of Georgia, and then the same motion, with no busi­ness transacted, by William Col- mer (D) of Mississippi. Finally, the House adjourned with practi­cally nothing accomplished.

fight against TB was being or­ganized. Here and there, state and local societies were formed to combate what was then the most serious health problem in the United States. Finally in 1904 came the organization of the Na­tional Association for the Study and Prevention of TB, later re­named the National Tuberculosis Association.

The young organization early recognized that the x-ray was to be one of the most important weapons in the attack on TB. Here was a means of detecting the disease before outward symp­toms appeared. The innocent spread of TB germs by people with unsuspected TB could be checked. The disease discovered early could most easily and quick­ly be cured. Since the develop­ment of small-film x-ray equip­ment in th^pazly 1940s the pro­fessor's is no longer "un­known.’'

Perhaps it is a little early to think about fly control, but the following suggestion of a back rubber for beef cattle will help several days, and delay the con control flies this summer.

Burlap soaked with DDT or Methoxychlor and fuel oil and wrapped around a cable or wires suspended between a post (or tree) and the ground, will do the job. A quart of 25 per cent DDT or 16 per cent Hethoxychlor in oil mixed with three quarts of fuel oil gives good control of flies on the Dixon Springs herd. The bur- | lap will have to be re-soaked about every two weeks. |

Illinois soybeans have a good germination this year, reports J.C. Hacklenjan, extension agrono- mist at the University.

Tests conducted by the Illinois j Crop Improvement Associations of Certified Seed shows a germin­ation of 5 8to 96 per cent for Lin- , \ | coin, 89 to 95 per cent for Hawk- , •; eye, 79 to 92 per cent for Hara- 1 soy, and 83 to 96 per cent for |Adams in the Central Illinois area. These tests were run only on certified soybeans, but are a good indication of the quality of the seed produced last year in this area. If you have any doubts about the quality of your soybean seed, be sure to have them tested for germination.

Large doses of Vitamin D hold much promise as a way to pre­vent milk fever in dairy cows, but the vitamin feeding period should be limited to seven days, accord­ing to Dr. Link of the College of Veterinary Medicine.

In an experiment at the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, : X 20 to 30 million units of Vitamin D were fed daily to cows for five to seven days before they calved.

The vitamin kept the blood cal­cium level about 30 per cent higher than normal, providing protection against a sudden drain of calcium in the cows’ system at the beginning of the lactation. A marked increase in the blood phosphorus level was also observ­ed in the vitamin-fed cows and before and after calving.

The work on the new cattle

have to reschedule some of the work days. We will try to keep the work going until the roof is on, and do the finishing later in the summer.

the need for more careful driving as a means of cutting down traf­fic accidents.

I "Last year,” Joe said, ”38,300 , persons were killed in motor ve­hicle accidents. This was an in-

1 crease of 2,300 over 1954’s traffic I fatalities, and more than the to­tal number of Americans killed in the Korean War. Ibis year, un­less something is done to curtail accidents, even more Americans will lose their lives on the high­ways.”

He said the Safe Drivers’ Lea- J gue national headquarters in

| Washington, D. C. for presenta- j tlon to the President's highway safety committee. The pledges ; are available at N. M. La Ro­chelle’s store.

The reflector shield in itself is a valuable safety device, Joe said. "The need for hlghy reflective identification such as this is be­coming more and more apparent as an aid to preventing night-time rear-end auto collisions. In many accidents of this type the drivers have said that collision could have been avoided if they had seen the car ahead of them soon­er," he said.

Because the reflector shield is highly visible at night, it can pro­vide added protection for a car that's disabled at the side of the road or patted on a dimly Ut street.

The membershp shields mea­sure 2V% by 414 Inches. They are designed to fit on the rear bump­er or rear deck of the car. A spe­cial adhesive holds the shields in place. Joe emphasized that no holes need to be drilled, It’s easy to apply.

I He said membership in the ! Safe Drivers’ League is entirely free and voluntary.

I "The only obligation on the part I of any Safe Driven’ League mem­ber is to drive safely at all times ”

If you 're looking for this week's senior, you m ight try looking in ■ the assem bly room a t noon be­cause he’s alm ost always there j ta lk ing to Joanne. Enough clues? Yes, of course, i t ’s Jim "Ernie" Perkins.

Besides his enjoym ent of talk- i ing Jim likes to call anyw here and ] everyw here his hangout. Perhaps j the reason for th is wide a rea of hab ita tion is th a t he likes to get j as fa r as possible from his pet j peeve, teachers.

W e m ustn ’t m agnify this now, because he does have a favorite | subject, Ag., but when asked t o ; nam e a favorite teacher, Jim just laughed and said, “T here ain’t none of them kind.”

Jim has an in teresting hobby, 1 Flying, and also a delicious fav­o rite food, bu ttersco tch pie.

FFA , basket ball and annual ; s ta ff seem to figure largely i n ; J im ’s list of activities.

H is m ost frequently heard say- [ ing would be, “W hat do you say, son?”

Jim ’s am bition is adm irable, the m eans by w hich he plans to a t ­ta in it is w hat stum ps us He w an ts to fly to the moon W ITH ­OUT a rocket. Maybe he’ll swing up on a vine, like his favorite mo­vie stars , T arzan and Jane.

Jim favors all blues because he doesn 't w an t to have things clash w ith his tw o-tone blue car.

Jim plans to go to college and th en to farm . We know he’ll suc­ceed in this, bu t we can’t help w ondering if he’ll ever m ake it to th a t little sa te llite u p th e sky “a piece.”

Buick Vjpu 6-PasMegw 2-Door Bvtofo, Modal 5A*

e v e n b e fo re y o u S w itc h th e P itc h1 orque is for take-off-and there’s plenty of it here.

You just apply a puny bit of pressure on the pedal-and you’re off and away. Never has such quick accelerationbeen so smooth.

Its the newest step-up in Variable Pitch Dynaflow*— and it gives a double-barreled thrill.First, it delivers a record amount of torque to turn those rear wheels — even before you switch the pitch. You splurge on pickup while saving on gas.The second is for real zoom service, just put your foot down—and there you have it You switch the pitch and Dynaflow serves up a dazzling burst of extra power to cut seconds off your passing—and add new safety to it

But there’s a lot more than torque to talk about.There’s Buick styling. Its flair and sweep alone have started many a conversation. On lines that are daring, but not reckless. On colors and interiors that are gay and stunning, but never garish.

And there’s the Buick ride. Unlike any other. Softer, yet steadier. Cradling you in rubber-bubble comfort- leveling with you on every twist and turn.

A whole group of unseen marvels screen you from the harsh realities of the road. Including a new front-end geometry—new deep-ofl-cushioned shock absorbers new deep-coil springs on all four wheels. And there are new stabilizers and a new torque tube, to snub out any swing or sway.

In short, there’s so much excitement from stem to stem —in any Buick you can buy—that Buick owners have a whale of a lot to talk about.So>why not take a Buick out on the road yourself, so you’ll know what all the talk's about? Don’t say you can’t afford it until you hear us talk price. Were ready whenever you are.

*New Advanced Variable Fitch Dynaflow it the only Dynaflow Buick builde today. It it ttandard on Roadmarter, Super and Century—optional at modett extra oott on the Special.

SUN W O RSHIP AND TBThe elderly lady w atching the

scantily clad persons on the beach sighed and said, “Well, a t least they w on't get TB.” I t would be w onderful if TB could be p reven t­ed by everyone getting a su n tan — unfortunately , i t ’s not true.

Corn. P rice support w ill aver­age $1.50 a bushel for com grown

lem resu ltin g from the continued unc‘er acreage allotm ents. A low-piling up of huge surpluses re ­m ains unsolved.

On Jan u a ry 9th President Eis­enhow er sen t to the Congress a special m essage calling a tten tion to th e fa rm problem and recom­m ending a nine-point program for a solution. I t was one of his very ■ f irs t m essages, sen t six days a f te r j th e C ongress convened. And in th e very f irs t sentence of it he said: “In th is session no problem before th e Congress demands m ore u rg e n t a tten tion than the paradox facing our farm fam i­lies.” T h a t paradox has been fa rm prices and incomes depress­ed am id the nation’s greatest prosperity .

B ut th e Congress did not give the m a tte r the urgent atten tion th a t th e President requested. Norreached the point w here m any ( „ ull„„ 0 lv,

The teacher varies these activ ­ities from day to day to prevent m onotony. C hildren of this age have a very sh o rt span of a tte n ­tion. They m ust be kept busy a t all times.
