Everyone, especially the young marrieds, expectant parents or retired, are irged to start a plan of protection now by giving a blood donation. One member may donate to cover the entire family. The donor must be healthy and between the ages of 18 and 66. This program does not require a great amount of blood. One pint will cover a family for a year but one can give to help friends or neighbors who are unable to donate. The need for blood becomes a greater threat because of the increasing number of patients being kept alive with its use, including those who undergo complex surgery, dialysis patients, leukemia victims, hemophiliacs and for the everyday vacation and holiday accidents, just to state a few. Blood is costly and will become more so with time, which makes it important to MCHENRY HOSPITAL Patients admitted to the McHenry hospital were Mrs. Argee Paras, Harry Lawrence, Doreen Patterson, Vincent Schiavonne, Walter Coari and Sverre Thomseth of McHenry, and Lottie Polcyn and Robert Moore of Wonder Lake.

And the best way to cut losses is through proper combine ad­ justment. University of Illinois agricultural engineers offef these pointers for preparing your combine for., soybean harvest: _ i -- Set the combine according to operator's manual recom­ mendations. Then, try the machine in the field and check for threshing damage and poor cleaning. Adjust accordingly. -Harvest soybeans at 13 percent moisture. And keep in mind that shattering becomes serious when the beans' moisture content drops 11 percent. -Keep ground speed slow-2.5 to 4 miles per hour. In weedy conditions, your combine may overload. If it does, slow down. --Keep header height as low as possible. A floating cut- terbar can be helpful. -Use a pick-up reel- especially in lodged beans. And operate the reel at 1.5 times the ground speed. - Adjust reel bats nearly vertical to the ground. If material is pitched past the auger, your reel bats are im­ properly adjusted. The engineers stress that measuring harvest loss is essential to achieve proper machine adjustment. After initial adjustments, try the machine in the field. Then, check harvest losses and readjust for the particular harvest situation. (UHLLPHPER A TwcJt af hm&i fw M... Sale Starts Oct. 11th thru Nov. 5th FLOOD CONTROL Reps.
