Two Parades Newly Organized School Board Sets Meetings Extension Comments Save the Evidence. These emphatic words of Jimmie D. Lucas, county Executive director, are directed at far­ mers whose farm program crops (corn, grain, sorghum, barley and wheat) have been destroyed or may be destroyed by floods, hail, drought, etc. in McHenry county. "Producers who believe they may be entitled to disaster payments under the Agriculture and Consumer Protection act of 1973 should notify the McHenry county ASCS Office/ as soon as possible/' Luc^s said. "Whafthfey should NOT do, he said, is plow under, graze, hay or otherwise destroy evidence of the crop damage until specifically advised by the county ASCS office that they may do so. Official deter­ minations must be made on the extent of loss. "If a farmer believes that the disaster has caused a sub­ stantial loss to his program crops and he choses not to carry any portions of these crops through to harvest, he should notify the county office as soon as he can," the farm official said. "He should not destroy the crop residue. If his loss is partial and he harvests some or all of the crop, he should be ready to furnish evidence of production, such as warehouse receipts and similar documents," Lucas added. "Most important of all, he should keep in touch with the county ASCS office," Jim said. The ASCS chief pointed out that disaster payments are intended only to provide some relief to farmers whose cropland is so affected by diaster that they receive little or no income from production of the crop. The payments are not intended to compensate fully for the loss. Also, coverage extends only to planted acreage up to the historical allotment on each farm, not to acreage planted in excess of allotment. More complete information on disaster payment provision is available from the county ASCS office. | 4-H NEWS | LINCOLN CLOVERLEAVES The Lincoln Cloverleaves 4-H club held its monthly meeting at the James C.

L A S T M I N U T E SUGGESTIONS - To get soybean yields, start by planting good-quality seed of a proven variety. The three top, yielding varieties at the University of Illinois Agronomy Research field in DeKalb county are Corsey, Amsoy 71 and Beeson. Plant soybeans in May. If you're planting 40-inch rows, shoot for a population^ of 10 to 12 plants per foot of row. In 30-inch rows, aim for six to eight plants per foot; and in 20- inch rows, try for four to six p l a n t s p e r f o o t . P l a n t a b o u t V/z to 2 inches deep. Weed control during the first three to five weeks after planting is ex­ tremely important. If you control weeds during ; that period, soybeans will probably not suffer much yield loss from weeds that being growth late. The combination of timely planting, good quality seed, optimum population and successful weed control pro­ vides the foundation for top soybean yields.
