PAGE 18-PLAINDEALE3-FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1971 I SCENE OF BAPTIST MEETING - Member messengers from the 900 affiliated churches of the Illinois Baptist State association will meet in Springfield Nov. 8 to 11. The convention will feature the dedication of the new Si.5 million headquarters building Nov. 11 during the association's sixty-fifth annual meeting. Illinois' governor, Richard B. Ogilvie, will bring greetings, as well as represen­ tatives of other national and state Baptist bodies. One of Springfield's most modern buildings, it is located at 3086Stevensondrlve, near the Capitol City shopping center. The State association moved its offices from Carbondale to Springfield early this fall. The Rev. Virgle L. Chappell, pastor of the First Baptist Church of McHenry, has served the past five years on the association's elected executive board of seventy members. The past two years, the local pastor has been chairman of one of the board s four committees, that of Church Extension. Dr. James II. Smith is executive secretary of the association. From The Farm FALL MANAGEMENT You can't stop winter winds from blowing But you can decrease the chances that the winds will carry valuable soil from your cropland. Cropland left unprotected during the winter months is subject to wind erosion and soil loss. But good fall soil management can keep these losses to a minimum. A chisel plow leaves about 75 percent of the crop residue on the soil surface to protect the soil from the wind. Zero tillage is also an ef­ fective wind control practice -- especially where soybeans were harvested. Soybeans loosen the soil, and fields where soybeans have been harvested are subject to severe wind erosion if stubble is plowed or disked The loosening effect of soybeans makes planting row crops in unfilled seedbeds easy. If you must plow this fall, plow only nearly level fields where corn grew this year and leave a rough soil surface to help trap drifting soil. Leaving corn stalks on the soil surface will also help reduce soil blowing. Fall-plowed fields with more than a three-percent slope may also be subject to water erosion. Avoid fall plowing or disking soybean stubble or any crop stubble on sandy soils. Both situations are especially subject to wind erosion. Chiseling soybean stubble leaves a rough, trashy surface that is less subject to wind erosion than fields that have been disked or plowed following soybeans. Leave an unplowed strip 15 to 20 feet wide in every 100 to 120 feet you plow this fall. The unplowed area-especially if it's covered with vegetation- will help trap drifting soil. CROSSBREEDING BEEF Crossbreeding our traditional beef breeds with dairy breeds and exotic imports such as Charolais and Simmental has produced three important improvements, cattlemen were told at the West-Central Illinois Beef Day. The practice has improved the product con­ sumers buy. And it gives producers faster-growing cattle because of heterosis and cows with improved milking ability. BAGGING SYSTEMS Seed corn companies have hit another winning idea. Several seed corn companies have announced they are switching from the pound-bushel baggins system to an 80,000 kernels-per- bag method. The new system makes seed purchasing easier. All you need to know is how many kernels per acre you'll plant and simple math tells you how many 80,000 kernel bags to order. Electric computers count the kernels during the bagging operation. TREE PROTECTION Recently set trees need protection from winter injury. Sun scald is severe on smooth, thin-barked young trees. It is caused during brief, mild periods during the winter when the sun stimulates the inner bark to grow, usually on the south to south-west side of the tree. With the next heavy freeze this bark is killed, causing it to loosen, break off, and expose the wood. Wrapping the trunk will also prevent insect borers from causing extensive damage in the following spring and summer. To wrap the trees, use forty pound kraft paper or a tough crepe-type asphalt im­ pregnated paper. Using three to four inch widths, start at the base and spirally wrap the tree trunk, tying with a soft cord to hold the paper in place. The paper should overlap per­ haps y2 to 1 inch for more complete protection. DRY DAIRY COWS Give dry dairy cows all the good roughage they will eat plus about one-half pound of grain mixture per 100 pounds of body weight each day. Feed thin cows slightly more grain and give cows in good body condition slightly less.

FARROWING COSTS Farrowing pigs in a central farrowing house with slotted- floors is about as economical as farrowing them in individual houses with slotted-floor platforms. Investment costs in a central house figure about double those in individual houses according to a recent study. However, a slotted-floor central house requires only one-third as much labor and sows farrowing in crates in a central house raised more pigs-an average of three- fourths of a pig more per litter. Math Committee Formed To Aid Grade Students District 15 teachers have expressed concern about the Math program. Teachers want to be sure that students receive and learn those essentials which will make them capable of pursuing further Math studies. The Math committee consists of the following teachers: Chairman, Lynn White, Hilltop; secretary, Carroll Rudden, Edgebrook; Avice Gorham, Parkland; James Buelow, Valley View; Pat Seaton, McHenry Junior high; Darlene Considine, Hilltop; Eileen Zywiciel, Landmark; John Nilles, Hilltop principal; Donald Toole, McHenry Junior high principal ; Terry Anfinson, Valley View; and Dave Parrish, McHenry Junior high. The topics of the first meeting included permanent records, continuity, and future math activities. Presently fifteen after-school Math sessions remain for District 15 teachers. Sky Findlay has taught three sessions and will teach at least five more. Mr. Findlay's approach to teaching Math, grades K-8, is quite unique. He takes the drudgery out of the necessary drill by creating Math games in which the students can engage. Mr. Findlay's theory is learning by doing, that is, the use of INSTALL NEW LIONS - Lt. District Governor Norman Devlne, right, of Somonauk, III., on his visit to the McHenry Lions club Monday night had the honor of installing two new members into the local club. They were Clare Hearle, left, and James Amettis. Other guests at the dinner were Zone Chairman Leo Krumme of Crystal Lake and Louis Battorson, president of the Sandwich, III., Lions club. "Adam And Fallen Man" Subject At Church "Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it." This verse from Psalms will be among those read at McHenry Christian Science church services Sunday. The Bible Lesson-Sermon is entitled "Adam and Fallen Man." Commentary from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy includes: "When speaking of God's children, not the children of men, Jesus said, 'The kingdom of God is within you;' that is, Truth and Love reign in the real man, showing that man in God's image is unfalien and eternal." Christian Science society at Lincoln road and Eastwood lane holds Sunday services at 10:30 a.m. All are welcome. physical objects to explain Math concepts. The next scheduled Math session for District 15 teachers is Nov. 8 at Edgebrook school. comb, r HAve mYaslbs AZ&V'T IAJB l&SH, MOMZ " [ For And About Teenagers THEY DO WHEN 9 AND 00 THE WEEK'S LETTER: I feel lost in my own world. I'm fifteen and can't understand why all the girls my age, a little younger, and a little older, act the way they do about boys. I'm talking about acting so silly about things like talking to someone else's boy­ friend, and the things they do and say, jealousy and all that. I acted or felt like they do when I was 9 and 10, about my boyfriend and boys. Today, I teel at least 25 or 30. Can you tell me why? OUR REPLY: You were inter­ ested in boys at an early age. The girls whom you believe to be act­ ing "silly" are going through the same "stage" or phase of develop­ ment that you went through earlier. If they progress as they should, they, too, will soon begin to act in a more mature manner. You feel 25 or 30 because you want to be older, because you want to be a mature individual. Forget this idea. Be a level-head­ ed lady of fifteen. When you reach 30, you might wish you were fifteen again. If you have a iMnagi problem you want to discuss or an observation to make, address your letter to FOR AND ABOUT TEENAGERS. COMMUNITY AND SUBURBAN PRESS SERVICE, FRANKFORT, ICY.
