Farm Bureau Neup LEGUME FAILURES CAN BE MINIMIZE BY TESTNG SOIL Many McHenry county farrhers are barred from getting expected results from seeding' legumes because of the failure to check on lime requirements and available phosporus is the opinion of farm adviser, John H. Brock. In order to take advantage of the 1937 soil conservation program it will be necessary to make your soil testing \ plans in the near future. One of the first plans to be formulated should be the testing of all fields where legumes are to be seeded next year. ' .. The foundation of any sound soilconservation and improvement program is the regular and consistent growing of clovers. They add. nitrogen, build up and maintain the active organic matter of the- land, conserve moisture, help control erosion, - and checlj leaching of plant food. Information concerning methods of taking soil samples and testing these sampjes for available phosporus and amount of limestone needed to sweeten soil may be obtained from ;ttoe county farm adviser.' TAX LIMIT ON HOMES <>? WOULD AID "BUILD , NOW" CAMPAIGN- TAX One way to help along the "Build Now" campaign for greater enjoyment and to improve available nous ing facilities in many communities would be to amend the state constitu tion and so authorize a fair Illinois taxing system based on ability to pay, says the Illinois Agricultural Association. John C. Watson, director of taxation for the IAA, spoke before the Illinois legislature meeting as a committee of the whole June 2. He advocated a revenue amendment for submission to the voters next November. "Tangible property still bears a disproportionate share of the government," Mr. Watson said. "Illinois farmers want an amendment to the state constitution permitting the General Assembly to classify any object or subject of taxation so as to levy taxes according to ability to pay. "We also favor limiting property taxes to not more than one per cent of fair cash value in the cities and not more than sevens-tenths of one per cent outside of cities and villages." The IAA proposal would allow the legislature by majority vote to exempt homes up to $1,000 value when occupied by owners, and to exceed the $1,000 exemption by a two-thirds vote. The American Farmer--Trapped! CO-OPERATIVE INSTITUTE AT URBANA OFFERS RARE FARMING AID A rare privilege for McHenry county farmers to obtain the latest information relative to the problems of co-operative marketing and purchasing will be offered at the American Institute of Co-operation to be held at the University of Il^nois June 16 to 19, is the opinion of Farm Adviser, John H. Brock. Headliners among the 140 speakers participating in this week school of agricultural economics devoted to the co-operative movement in America, include J. R. Barton, co-director of Den Social Hojskole, Denmark, Chester C. Davis, AAA administrator, E. C. Smith, IAA president and Ed O'Neal, president of American Farm Bureau Federation. Each afternoon will be devoted to group conferences relative to creamery co-operatives, fluid milk, livestock, poultry and eggs, grain, fruits and vegetables, and farm supply purchasing. These conferences will be attended by Cooperative leaders of the United Stated, according to Brock. "Changes in City Market Outlets for Fluid Milk," "Finding Manufacturing Outlets for Fluid Milk," "Producer Competition in the Same Milk Shed," and "Classified Price Plans, With and Without Base Set-ups," will provide discussions special interest to McHenry county dairymen. The complete program of this Institute may be seen at the office of Farm Adviser Brock. ZIPPER GOLF DRESS V * -- p ' ' ' " '-'V W> I !SSr French New Deal May Bring Panic Public Fear Parallels U. S. After Roosevelt Victory in Fall of 1932. Chicago.--Threatened with the establishment of a radical government--*' a sort of New Deal on the American pattern"--France is experiencing a wave of public fear that is described by Howard Wood, prominent economic writer, as similar to the financial panic which swept the United States be-" tween the election of the New Deal in November, 1932, and the date of the Inauguration In March, 1933. "In France," Mr. Wood reports, "the 'little fellows' are trying to protect their savings by hoarding. Runs on the banks have reduced deposits. Capital Is leaving France as fast as there are ships available to carry gold. Disclosure of plans to 'soak the thrifty' and schemes for vast political expenditures have Intensified the scramble. "Similarly in the United States," Mr. Woods adds, "the panic did not be gin ontll the interval between the election of the New Deal and the date of Its taking office, and culminated in the nation • wide bank moratorium of March, 1933." 1 Observers of business and industrial conditions have already established the fact that the low point of the depression was passed during the summer of 1932, and the upward climb to prosperity was already under way In the fall of the year. Fears that arose from the proposals of New Dealers for large public expenditures, their opposition to budget balancing plans and comments favoring inflation stopped, recovery and brought on the panic..

Canadian Farm Exports to U. S. Rise Sharply Otfawn.

Farmers Can't Get Help; - WPA Jobs Lure Hands .< Springfield, 111.--From all over Illinois directors of the Illinois Agricultural association are receiving complaints that farriiers cannot obtain sufficient help this spring because the iben they customarily hire now work for the WPA and prefer the easy work and good pay to the more rigorous •tasks of farming; •% ';C ' Farmers in past yearS have beei able to get skilled help for $20 or $; • a month and keep, according to the as •soctation. •-"This"'year farm, hands li many cases refuse to take jobs oft'tlx'-, farm and frankly say that they woul. rather work for the WI'A three or foil; •flays a week," says an IAA statement "They say that while the farm wages Jvltl) board give them more money than the $54 a month WPA wage, they pre fer to work less and take less pay." A survey by a Rockford newspaper showed a need for 1,000 farm hands In Winnebago, Boone and Ogle counties. L. W. Braham, Will county farm adviser, reported many appeals, from farmers for help. "The farmers resent the idea that they are unable to get help when there are so many men on relief," said Braham. "These fafmers say the relief situation has reached the point where they must compete with the federal government." Similar complaints were heard Id Kankakee* Cook, L>e Kalb, Du Page, I .a Salle. Vermillion, Champaign, Edgar and Douglas-counties. Of recent weeks shortage of help has been reported In Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Kansas and other states, because hands preferred to work for the federal government and let the taxpayer foot the bills.
