Living on or near a lake makes it almost a necessity. As a service for our community, the Woman's Club of Wonder Lake is once again this year sponsoring swimming lessons for our children. If you missed the scheduled registration dates, you can still sign up your child by calling Susan Kuziel at 653-9754. The classes offered include Beginner, Advanced Beginner, Intermediate, Swimmer. There is also a class that replaces Junior Lifesaving that is called Basic Rescue and Water Safety that requires a child to be eleven years old and able to swim 220 yards, and Advanced Lifesaving, available to fifteen year olds who can swim 440 yards. Beginners must be five years old some time this year. The lessons will be from Aug. 2 through Aug. 13 and the cost is minimal. Registrations will be accepted up until July 25. HOSPITALIZED We extend our best get-well wishes to Ora Parker who was hospitalized recently at Christ Community hospital in Chicago. Ora will be recuperating at home for some time and a cheery word or card from her friends would be most welcome at this time. MEETING There will be a board meeting of the Indian Ridge Improvement association on Thursday, July 22. at 8 p.m. at the east side firehouse. YOUNG AT HEARTS The Wonder Lake Young at Hearts began an "early bird" journey to Galena At 6 a.m., Wednesday, July 14. Though the day blossomed into near 100 degree temperatures, the group "beat the heat" in their air conditioned bus and enjoyed the breathtaking scenery during the three hour trip. At Galena they toured the historic Grant's home as well as several other old time houses. Following dinner at Robin's Rest, they boarded a boat for a cruise down the Mississippi river, where gentle breezes fanned them as they viewed spectacular homes set on mountainlike hills along the river. They "sang along" on the bus ride home and ended a very full day of companionship and fun at their Wonder Lake destination when they arrived at 7 p.m. Their next meeting will be Wednesday, July 21, and plans will be finalized for the annual picnic to be held at Huntley park. BIRTHDAYS Happy birthday to Tom Ruggero on July 24. Happy birthday to Elmira Simone on July 24. Happy birthday to John Dyck on July 24. ANNIVERSARY Happy wedding anniversary to Rev. and Mrs. Richard Wright on July 23. Extension Comments (By George J. Young, Ex­ tension Adviser, Agriculture, McHenry County) Help Dairy Cows Beat The Heat - Every dairyman knows he is able to do less hard work in hot, humid weather. The same is true of his dairy cows ? whose job is to produce milk. „The result is less milk. Two things can be done to help dairy cows during hot, humid weather. The most tftmous is to provide a place out of the direct sun where air moves freely. Trees or open sheds work fine. The best sheds are open on at least two Sides to allow free air flow. In case trees or sheds are not available, investment in an artificial sunshade may pay good returns. Feeding only high-quality, low-fiber roughages also helps cows beat the heat. The reason is that high fiber intake in­ creases the amount of body heat cows produce. High en­ vironmental temperatures plus high body heat production puts more stress on the cows, and milk production drops. It is always a good idea to feed a high-energy, low-fiber ration to top producing cows. But make sure the percent of fiber in the entire ration does not drop below 15 percent or normal fat tests will not be maintained. Dairy cows eat less feed during hot weather. So a high- energy ration will help them in two ways. It will provide nutrients needed for top milk output with the least possible body heat production. Adequate water is always essential, and drinking water must be readily available. Country-Western Stars At Green County Fair Farm Appraisal Course - Twenty-six people have in­ dicated that they will enroll in Dr. Reiss's Farm Appraisal course that runs from Sept. 9 through Dec. 16 in Woodstock. You can audit it, take it for undergraduate credit or University of Illinois graduate credit. Maximum Class size is 35; this is on a first come, first serve basis. Call our office for details. Treat Fencerows - Spraying fencerows this summer can reduce field weed problems next year and save you both time and money. Following is an easy, inex­ pensive spray program to help you effectively check fencerow weed growth: If the vegetation in your fencerows is mainly broadleaf weeds, use 2,4-D at a rate of one-half to one pound in at least 10 gallons of water per acre. To estimate how much area you have to treat, remember that two miles of fencerow, four feet wide, is about an acre. It may be necessary to spray 2,4-D twice during the cropping season. If there are grass weeds such as foxtail in the fencerow vegetation you can mix dalapon with 2,4-D to control both grasses and broadleaf weeds. But do not use dalapon when desirable grasses are present. Do not graze dairy animals on areas treated with 2,4-D within seven days after treatment. And be sure to read label instructions carefully and use appropriate precautions to avoid 2,4-D injury to nearby desirable plants.

Septoria Brown Spot - is widespread on lower leaves of soybeans in some McHenry County fields. Many of these lower leaves are turning yellow and will drop prematurely. During cool, wet periods, the Septoria fungus can progress from lower to the upper leaves. I doubt if we will have cool, wet periods during July and August. SMV Emblem Standard Updated - The American Society of Agricultural Engineers recently published a standard upgrading the quality of the slow-moving vehicle (SMV) emblem. The SMV emblem is designed for use on farm vehicles traveling at speeds less than 25 mph on public roads and high­ ways. The triangular emblem warns motorists that the vehicle ahead is traveling at a slow speed Presently, the fluorescent^ material used on the SMV emblems is made to last for two or more years depending on where the implement it is on is stored. Under the new stan­ dard, the emblems would remain in usuable condition for at least twice the previous exposure time. In addition, the manufac­ turer's name and address must appear on the emblem's face in a specified size and type style. It is hoped that these requirements will result in the sale of better quality emblems. In Illinois, farmers are required by law to have SMV emblems on all farm machinery traveling on public roads. When buying new SMV emblems, look for those meeting the new require­ ments. WANTED!

CONSUMER GUIDELINES Modified Soap A modified soap made from constantly replenish- able agricultural raw ma­ terials has been developed by the Agricultural Re­ search Service. It's safe, biodegradable and elimi­ nates the hard-water prob­ lem. It contains a chemical called "lime-soap dispers­ ing agent" to prevent curd formation. In addition to being a good discovery, this new soap may lessen the nation's dependence on de­ tergents, most of which are made from petroleum and contain phosphates.
