•PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3,1973 V.A. NEWS G.I. Bill training is still available for some veterans who were discharged from military service as much as 12 years ago, but not for long. The Veterans Administration today pointed out that Post- Korean veterans - those who were discharged between January 31, 1955, and June 1, 1966 - have two more years to take flight training, farm or on- the-job training under the G.I. Bill. But their eligibility for other types of schools and colleges expires May 31, 1974. In spite of the array of dates, the formula for computing an individual's eligibility is fairly simple, Administrator of Veterans Affairs Donald E. Johnson pointed out. The law gives each veteran eight years to use his G.I. Bill eligibility, and for most, this means until eight years after discharge. But the Post-Korean group had no G.I. Bill eligibility until June 1, 1966, when the current G.I. Bill became effective. Thus, they have until eight years after the date of the law. The following year (1967), other forms of training were added to the G.I. Bill, so the eight years of eligibility for these benefits starts from the date of the amendment - August 31, 1967. Post-Korean veterans have been slower in taking ad­ vantage of their G.I. education benefits - a 34 percent rate compared to 42 percent for YOU Can be a CHINCHILLA Rancher Start in your basement, garage, any area that meets the climatic conditions required for Chinchillas. ^armless, odor-free Chinchillas are easy to care for -- clean -- quiet -- eat very little -- they're vegetarians.

Literature Without Obligation veterans discharged after enactment of the current G.I.' Bill. The 34 percent rate is con­ sidered reasonably good, because as Administrator Johnson pointed out, "Some of these veterans had been out of service for as long as 11 years before the current G.I. Bill gave them entitlement. By that time, many had found other means of financing their education, or found it im­ possible to take advantage of the G.I. Bill because of family or other responsibilities." Age and education level also played roles in preventing many Post-Korean veterans from returning to classrooms. Average age for the Post- Korean group is six years older than Vietnain Era veterans and only two of three had finished high school before entering service, compared to four out of five for Vietnam Era veterans.

Start your planning with a soil test. If your soils have been tested within the last three or four years, you can base your plans on the results of these tests along with records of crops grown and fertilizers < applied. If your fields haven't been tested this recently, have them retested. If you need to apply fertilizer for next year's crops, consider applying part or all of it this fall Limestone, phosphorus, and potassium can be applied in the fall without appreciable loss or lowered efficiency. HELP STOP FIRE! People cause most fires, and people can prevent most fires. Not "the other fellow", but you ..and you...and you! Good attention to fire prevention starts at home, then carries through on the job or in the classroom, during leisure- time activities and while traveling, everywhere and at all times. In other words, "Never give fire a chance to start!" At home, get rid of possible fire hazards and try to change habits which could be dangerous. Tour the house to weed out and discard everything no longer needed, especially from storage areas where all sorts of "stuff" tends to accumulate. Then check throughout the house and correct all hazards like faulty electric§l appliances and worn cords, combustibles stored too near sources of heat, defective cooking equipment, a heating system which hasn't 1 vi&i 3718 WEST ELM STREET McHENRY, ILL.

Next, make a conscious effort to correct habits like carelessness with smoking materials, smoking in bed, leaving matches and lighters where small children can too- easily get hold of them, or smoking while handling gasoline-powered equipment like the lawn mower and snow blower. On the job, help stop fires by being careful with smoking materials and obeying all "No Smoking"! signs without fail. Report faulty electrical equipment, follow regulations for safe storage and disposal of combustible materials, cooperate fully with the firm's fire safety program. Do your share to help stop the fires which now claim some 12,600 lives in the United States and Canada each year and which cost these nation's ap­ proximately $3.2 billion an­ nually. WHEAT PRICE PROSPECTS FOR 1973-74 In mid-September Illinois farmers could sell 1973 crop wheat for about $4.75 a bushel and 1974 wheat for $3.75. In the face of a record 1973 U.S. wheat crop and because prices have almost doubled from mid-July to late August, producers are asking: Should I sell wheat now or wait? Wheat prices are expected to stay high until 1974 crops are assured. But one cannot argue against pricing some wheat at current levels. First, and most important, wheat sold at these prices brings a substantial profit over cost of production Second, an unknown factor is how much of the $2-a-bushel gain since harvest reflects a combination of heavy export buying for nearby shipments and heavy bookings in an­ ticipation of future export quotas. At harvest, it was apparent that the tight 1973-74 demand- supply balance for U.S. wheat pointed to strong prices. With prospective exports of 950 million bushels, it appeared that the 1973 crop of 1,736 million bushels would equal 1973-74 disappearance and no further reduction in the 433- million-bushel-carryover would occur. The current official estimates of export sales in 1973-74 is 1,100 million bushels, with indication that they could be higher. The USDA expects U.S. growers to seed 63 to 68 million acres for the 1974 wheat har­ vest. This compares with 58.8 in 1973 and 54.9 in 1972. With average yields a U.S. wheat crop of 68 million acres would produce 2,040 million bushels, and 63 million acres would produce 1,720 million bushels. U.S. wheat exports are likely to drop back from current high levels as supplies in other nations increase. A 1,700 million bushel 1974 U.S. wheat crop would result in strong prices through much of 1974-75, but a 2,000 million bushel crop would result in a buildup of carryover stocks and sub­ stantially lower prices. m M ll M ACROSS 1 - Floral plot 6 - Cleansed lightly 11 * Legal claim 12 - Unit 14 - Girl's name 15 - To shelter 16 - Piquancy 18 - To disclose 19 - Decorative textile (poes.) 21 • Young oyster 23 - Distress signal 24 - Pour forth 26 - Educatloml Benefactors (abb.) 29 - Biblical dtvlston (abb.) 30 - Dinner course 32 • Household pests 35 - That thlqgl 36 - Greek letter 38 - Exclamation of silence 39 - Ancle rt sun god 40 - Bone 42 • Those remaining 45 - Tentative taste 48 - At no time (poet.) 49 - ...angular 50 - Musical Instrument 51 - Serene 52 - Artistic utensil DOWN 1 - Repairs a 2 - Sloth 3 - Settled again 4 - Democratic Nations (abb.) 5 - Rope loops 6 - Fixes again 7 - Continent (abb.) auua I1F3R >oEIiiIDEinn HdFiEsna U li tJK •• E A ii LLU ULiCJ t!U U EJ aUUQH •jfl n nn n nfn aaua RHR niiFK tu t'JiuuBtOBaia EI 0 H UHEH L U ttJ'JJMliJ hi Li kJliJWU feTilM IHIdlllU litifcliiUEJ HIED [•••(£ 8 - Spare-time camera pursuit (two words) 9 - Printer's measure 10 - Repaired the fabric 13 - Greek letter 17 - Fabricate lace 18 - First half of an oyster 20 - Liquid foods 22 - Garden product 25 - Suffix of ordinal lumbers 27 - Newspaper announcement 28 • Exist 30 - Kind of flahing bait (plural) 31 - Preposition 33 - Bone 34 - Fabric 36 - Adhesive 37 - Type of architecture 39 - Public convey­ ance (abb.) 41 - Yes, In Spain 43 - Golfer's device 144 - Time period 46 - A snake 47 - Card game For Your Information JvX* Dear Friends, To lighten the burden at the time of passing of a loved one are three people who offer their professional concern - your spiritual adviser, ftimily doctor, and your funeral director.
