"The new offer rate system for handling and storing government owned or ex­ tended-loan commodities is a mutual effort with warehousemen to meet the criticism and problems inherent fn present uniform s t o r a g e a g r e e m e n t arrangements, " Glenn A. Weir, associate administrator «of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS), said at a recent grain and feed dealer's convention. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) offer system, scheduled to go into effect July 1, could involve different rates from as many as 6,000 commercial warehouses. Forms to tender offers were sent in April to warehouses storing grain, rice, honey, bulk oils, and foundation seeds. The offer rate system for cotton will be effective Oct. 1. Weir said that the offer system for processed commodities has been in effect for some years. "The new system is a closer and better relationship between the Commodity Credit cor­ poration (CCC), and warehousemen, with each assuming added respon­ sibility," Weir said. Each warehouseman will have freedom to operate his business under market oriented con­ ditions. Under the new system, warehousemen will offer daily rates at which they will store and handle CCC-owned or extended-loan grain and other specified commodities. "It will be an individual, straight-line commercial operation," Weir said. The new system was developed with participation by the trade, to correct certain How do I vote by absentee ballot? What happens to my vote when I move to another part of town? What is vote fraud? How do I recognize it? Why does my polling place change so often? How does it happen that there are so many elections -- for park district, school district, townships, and others? How do I keep track of them all and know when and where I must vote? What is an election authority? How does his position affect me as a voter? Am I covered by the Cam­ paign Financing act? What must I do to comply with the law? How does Illinois stand in comparison to other states on election reform? I'm an 18-year-old voting for inequalities in the present s t o r a g e a g r e e m e n t arrangement. The Agriculture official said the prerequisite for setting rates no longer can rest with CCC. "Under the new system," Weir said, "CCC will be no different than any other customer of the warehouse." Responsibility and control for establishing rates will rest with the warehousemen. "Rates offered for storage and handling cannot be rejected by CCC," Weir ex­ plained. Each warehouseman must warrant that the rates offered are not in excess of those charge other customers Mm GREAT CAR BUYS PASSENGER CAR TIRE GUARANTEE WARDS giiurontees it\ postenger cor tires To specified mile\ when u%ed oci pos%e«>g*r cept »o«i% If youf tire doe* not give you Hm leoge k.efau%e of defects, normal rood haiocd •'jilure. o» p*emuture treod «#eorout WARDS will. 1 Dvxing *ir%i 10°/o of guaranteed leoge replace the lire free 2 During the y /nileage. replace for a prorata harge Ixived on rntleoge uted For adjustments. return tire to Ward* with Guoruntee Bookie!

In some cases a higher rate may be reflected if the government requires extra services not normally a part of the warehouseman's tariff. This would be an exception, fully substantiated to the required warrant. Weir said. The schedule of rates will be in effect until July 1, 1976. New rates, if they are to be sub­ mitted for the following calendar year, must be sub­ mitted at least 30 days prior to the renewal date of the agreement.. "The new offer rate must be stated on a thousandth of a cent-per-bushel per-day basis." Examples of conversion from annual and monthly to daily bushel rates were sent to warehousemen in April. Receiving and loadout charges on grain must be stated on a cents-per-bushel basis. "We recognize fully that the new offer schedule of rates is a departure from the system basically in effect since 1940, and that some difficulty may exist in converting to a daily basis. Working together, I am certain the new system will benefit all," Weir concluded. the first time. Where do I register?

Editor's Quote Book The more uncertain I have felt about myself, the more there has grown up in me a feeling of kinship with all things. Carl Jung CONDUCT CEREMONY - The Wonder Lake Legion and its auxiliary unit held Memorial day services, conducted by Commander Richard Gonzalez and President Ann Eberle.

The gun salute was given bjk^ Jim Hales, Walter Vitavsky and John Eberle, Jr. Other auxiliary members present were Nancy Hale and Jeanette Wakeham. Ice cream and soft drinks were served to all children at the post home following the ceremony. Eye Misconceptions As long as our eyes are in good working order, we take them for granted. But it's a different story, says the Illinois Society for the Prevention of Blindness, if the efficiency of your eyes is impaired by imperfection or abuse. Then prompt care and attention are essential. Here, according to the ISPB, are some of the common misconceptions about eyesight which can keep people from caring for their eyes properly. 1. You have perfect vision if it's declared to be "20-20". 20- 20 vision means that you can see at 20 feet what a person with "normal" vision sees at the same distance. The measurement has no bearing on other visual abilities that are equally important to good eyesight including depth perception, side vision, and night vision. 2. Glasses can "cure" poor eyesight. Corrective lenses can compensate for many faults of vision, but they can't cure any of them. 3. Some people never need glasses. The need for glasses usually increases with age. Therefore, almost everyone past 40 could improve his vision with glasses. 4. Improper lighting can "ruin your eyes." Reading or doing close work with poor lighting can limit your vision and result in eyestrain, but it is not likely to cause any organic damage to your eyes. 5. A color blind person can only see objects as black and white. Though total color blindness is exceedingly rare, trouble in recognizing red and green is not uncommon. It affects eight times as many men as women. 6. Looking directly at the sun will destroy your eyesight. The sun's rays are potentially damaging to the eyes. Always avoid looking directly at the sun. 7. It's an advantage for a person to be farsighted. A farsighted person can see clearly for a greater distance than the average person but may need reading glasses at an early age in order to see fine print at close range. 8. Glasses are better than contact lenses for your eyes. To help compensate for refractive errors, glasses and contacts work equally well. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages depending on the individual's needs. 9. A blind spot is a distinct handicap. Everyone has a physiologic blind spot; it is inherent in the eye's structure. There is one small area within the field of vision of each eye that shows no image, but an object temporarily lost because of one eye's blind spot can always be seen with the other eye.
