Tammous Robert Springman, Hartland township, says they filled a silo from eight acres this year where usually it has taken up to fourteen acres. All their corn is dented and out of the way of a killing frost. Winter wheat can be sowed anytime after Sept. 20 to be free of Hessian fly danger. Winter wheat is not too popular in this area. However, a number of farmers have had very good tyck lately and it seems to be growing in popularity. Wheat is a dry land crop where minerals are not leached out of the soil as rapidly as in a humia area such as ours is considered. Certainly it should be sown on high land that is well drained to reduce possibility of winter killing. Fertilizer should be applied by all means. Probably as good a recommendation as any is 300 pounds of 3-12-12. The seed bed is extremely important Plow early. Land thai has not been plowed now for wheat reduces the possibility for a good crop because for best results it should have considerable time for settling and packing. At home where we always grew winter wheat in the rotation, we always noted that the best wheat grew at the end of the field where we drove back and forth pet tin» to the field, etc. George Philips, the Boone county host on our Farm Bureau farm management tour last week, said his success was due to the American system of farming. "Not share the wealth, but share the knowledge." Well said, Mr. Philips. He has 109 acres of land on which he started in 1926. He has been keeping farm records since 1927 and has been feeding beef, hogs and sheep. His corn yield increased from 20 bushels in 1928 up to 100 bushels in 1949. The history is -- started liming 1928, started phosphate in 1939, alfalfa in 1935 and potash in 1950. The farm is entirelv limed and rock phosnhated now He said he would have started using fertilizers earlier, but couldn't make enough money to buy it. His oats yields have gone from 25 bushels to 80. He runs a flock of 130 ,western ewes and lambs in his corn to eat all the bottom leaves off. Now you can see from one end of the field to the other by getting down on your knees in his 100 bushel corn. All the other feed these sheep have is an 8; acre piece of ladino pasture. At Springfield last Monday we heard some of the insidn dope on the truck license' controversy. Most of our roads were built in the 1920's when we had 1,500.00" cars and trucks. We now have almost twice that many vehicles and the average weight of trucks has increased 97 percent Back in those days 12.000.000 00r miles were driven ancf now 28 - •00,000,000 miles are driven *per year. Paul Mathias, I. A. A. secretary who has been in Springfield all through this whole thin<~ says that 55 percent of th trucks will have only an $8 a" nual license increase. Farme' will get from fifteen to twent times as much money tot ran) toads frojn M.F.T. now as thi increase in truck license will be. "So," he says, "legislature-wise we have made .a pretty flair horse trade." The people voted not to go the bond issue route again on building roads like they did in the 20's so the only choice is to pay as we go with Increased license fees. He says there has been some using of license fees to pay off old relief bonds, but that is &b6ut completed. Seme of the things he gets thrown at him at Springfield on this farmer truck jicense business is that farmers do not pay a license on tractors, they get a refund on gas tax and that there is no longer a state real estate tax to build highways. I met a fellow the other day who was a maltoholic. He had the milk shakes. We are trying out television sets, now. The one we have hfus one knob that will give you any kind of "a design you want--herringbone, serge, tweed, broadcloth, loose knit. Marshall Scott, at, the College of Agriculture, who was in charge of the 8-week short course last year, has notified I's that this year's short course will be held from Dec. 1 to Jan. 24 The cost to the student will be somewhere between $160 to $225. according to what he is willing to. or can, spend. McHenry county was represented last year by Victor Aavang of Greenwood, who will certainly give the course an excellent testimonial. Of course, most any young farmer who has not attended college should go, but everyone can have himself convinced he can't go. That's too bad. According to figures, . I've seen you make $75 for every day you spend in college. You could afford to spend $25 to get someone to take your place and still be way ahead. School Enrollment Enrollment data reported by the U.S. Office of Education reflect the relationships which have existed for more Jthan half a century between population growth and school attendance. In 1870 only 57 per cent of the children and youth between the ages of 5 and 17 years were enrolled in public schools. By 1880 the percent had grown to 65.5; by 1890, to 68.6; and by 1900, to 72.4 The steady climb in percent of children enrolled in public schools con tinued until about 1930. since when it has remained consistently near to 80 per cent of the 5* to 17-year -Ms. • Foolish Speeeli Valuable "Democracy needs more tree speech, for even the speech of foolish people is valuable il it serves to guarantee the right of the wise to talk." --David Cushmar* Coyle LITE QH THE BAT Dorothy Davta ail Elsa Mary Reese » For the past few weejes, our sailors have been awfully busy. The third week of August, 1 Frank Waters, Jack Deroche, ; Eric Theis, ftorman Reese and j the Pomierski brothers went to j the Inland Lakes Yachting asj sociation regatta at Neenah, Wis., on Lake Winnebago. Every day there were high seas and strong winds. None of our sailors finished in the first ten, but nevertheless they all sailed pood races. At this regatta, classes A, C, D, E and Y boats are sailed every day for a week. ! For an extra attraction some of our sailors took the 38 foot "A" .boat up to race. The inland held two dances, an annual meeting, and many other means of entertainment for the sailors. All in all. everyone seemed to enjoy ' hemselves. On Saturday nisrht our Yacht club held a "Night in Paris" dance. Everyone pitched in and helped to make it a very enjoyable! evening. The co-chairmen for « the nigfht were Dorothy Davis and Carol Ericcson with Me? Mraz and Elsa Mary R%ese doinjy.. much of the art work. The next evening, Mr. and Mrs. "Stacey Gifford held a shower foj Shirley and A1 Pomierski and Blanche Antonucci and Ralph Pomierski. They ^received many nice gifts. The sam$ night, tlay Loose celebrated his sixteenth birthday by having a party at his parents' home in Johnsburg. Saturday morning, the sailors raced an unusual race in which the skipper and the crew reversed position. In other words the skipper crews and the crew skippers. Sid Peterson, skippering Y-27 and having Normar Reese as his crew, won the race with Dave Bell- sailing Y-8 8 coming in second. The Saturday series was won by the Pomierski brothers with Y-13. Y-88, skippered by Bil' Fletcher came in second, and Frank Waters finished in third position. Bill Fletcher won the Sunday morning race, Pomierski came in second, and Burt Gardner came in third. Sunday afternoon, Edwin- Mra' in Y-8 won the annual handicap race. He received a troplrfor this at the sailors' dinner Saturday, Sept. 6. Saturday night the Yacht clu*" ,held a dinner-dance and harr" times party. There were prizep for the best costumes, with Mr and Mrs. Jessup winning a prizt for the most original dress, Don Looze for the funniest and Peter Theis for the most appropriate "attire for a hard times party Later on there was a dancinjr - « 111H""'ft! PagoFhr* aontest that Betty Griffith and Bob Mra2 won. A Very fun-filled evening was registered by all. On Labor Day, Shirley Antonucci became the bride of A1 Pomierski in a beautif"1 ceremony at St. Mary's z* file Lake church in Chicago at 2 p.m. She wore a gown of white lace and carried a bouquet of white orchids. Her attendants all wore green gowns and had yellow mums in thei^ bouquets. The reception followed at the Orrington hotel in Evanston. They will be flying to Alcapulco, Mexico, for their honeymoon.

Barrett has reported. For the eight-month periods of the two years, the 1952 figure of $4,105,427.13 total collections is $252,694.35 greater than that fcr 1951, he said, while the number of domestic b u s i n e s s c o r p o r a t i o n s i s s u e d charters is 117 greater and the number of out-of-state corporations granted certificates of authority to operate in Illinois is 22 greater.
