This young man ranked top sheep blocker at the Illinois State' Fair in 1975. Steps systematically covered were hoof treatment, washing, shear useage, carding and combing, scissor trimming and blanketing. The animals were greatly improved after their visit to the "beauty shop" and left looking most professional. The 4-Hers now need to prac­ tice on other animals to perfect these steps and their abilities to perform them quickly and accurately. Throughout the day many problems concerning all phases of sheep production were discussed. Professionals and amateurs shared experiences and profited. Visit the McHenry County fair, Aug. 3-7 in Woodstock and view our results.

THINGS TO REMEMBER Church Services - Every Sunday - 9:30 a m~ Ringwood church The schedule to help parents have their children undergo lead poison screening has been prepared, Kathi George, project chairman for the sponsoring McHenry County Association for the Retarded, has announced. "We urge parents of children 1-6 years of age to bring their youngsters to one of the screening areas on July 6, 7, or 8." said Miss George. "The test is simple-just a finger prick test to obtain a few drops of blood which is placed on a slide and fed into a hematoflourometer. "We are cooperating with the McHenry County Department of Health and will have use of the Illinois Association for the Retarded Mobile Prevention Unit for those three days in July." Miss George calls attention to the tests for a simple reason: Lead poisoning can be found in youngsters of all ages and from all environments. Lead is found in the air because of auto and truck exhausts. Paint chips contain lead. Enough tests have been conducted to require continued screening, she said. Mental retardation can result because of excess lead in the system. Here is the screening schedule. No reservations are needed since the test takes only a few moments: Wednesday. July 6, morning - Community Outreach in Lakemoor, Fritzsche Estates area; Afternoon-Burton's Bridge. Thursday, July 7 -- 9:30-11 a.m. -Fantasy farm, 4719 Crystal Lake road, McHenry; 11:15-12:30--First Baptist nursery. Route 31, McHenry: 3- 4:30 p.m.--Fairy Tale House, Roberts road, Island Lake; 5-9 p.m.-A&P Parking lot, near the Square, Woodstock. Friday, July 8 -9:30-11 a m - Woodstock Day Care, Route 47, Woodstock; 11:30-1 p.m -Head Start, Old Orchard road, Harvard; 3-4:30 p.m.-- Friendship house. 250 Florence, Crystal Lake. All sites are open to the public and the test is free. The Knights of Columbus councils in the county participate in the presentation of these public service programs. Miss George stressed that the Public Health department will assume responsibility to follow up on any screening results that require further scrutiny of the child. Extension Comments (By Georg* J. Young, Extension Advisor, McHenry County, Unlvorsity of Illinois) Frost Damage Recently, there was some frost damage scattered throughout the county and moderate to severe hail damage. The hail was con­ centrated in the northeast corner of the county. In many cases, the com growing point was not injured from either the frost or the hail. The growing point is protWted at this stage of growth inside the corn stalk at about ground level. Some of the leaves were killed or badly damaged. When the growing point of the corn is still alive, in most cases the plant will go ahead and shoot new leaves. Of course, there has been some yield reduction to varying degrees. Bruised stalks from hail may result in more lodged corn plants this fall. The soybean growing point is not protected like corn is, so hail may be more severe on soybeans. On frost, corn leaf tissue is injured at about 32 degrees F., while it takes a temperature of about 28 degrees F. to injure soybeans. Rain Showers have been scattered and variable in the county, but most areas in the county have received between two and eight inches since May 1. Some areas in the corn belt have received little or no rain. In general, the county as been very fortunate in receiving the amount of rain it has. High-Producing Dairy Cows Don't expect high-producing dairy cows to get all the feed they need from fast-growing early summer pasture and green chopped forages. Such forages contain a lot of water, and cows cannot eat enough to meet their nutritional needs. Pasture forages can contain as much as 85 to 90 percent water. A 1,200-pound cow would have to consume up to 240 pounds of such forages each day to get a normal dailysuntake of about two No Church School 'til Sep­ tember This Sunday, June 26 - Church Picnic and church services -10:30 a.m. at Shaw's pond, Rt. 47 and Thayer road.

July 27 - Ringwood church - Annual Chicken Barbecue Daily Dial-a-Prayer, 385-1234 pounds of ary matter per hundred pounds of body weight. Cows may/iot eat that much forage. To maintain adequate feed intake by the top-producing cows in the herd, feed about six to eight pounds dry hay with the fresh forage. In addition, continue feeding grain while cows are on pasture. Rapidly growing forages are excellent sources of protein, minerals, and vitamins, but are low in energy. An ideal grain mixture contains a lot of corn or other high-energy fee, supplemented with minerals to supply the phosphorus, calcium, and salt. A grain mixture containing about 12 percent crude protein is adequate if grass legume forages make up the roughage portion of the ration. The grain mixture may need additional protein as the pasture forage matures. The University of Illinois recommends feeding one pound of grain for each three to four pounds of milk produced by cows of the lower testing breeds. Wildlife Meeting Anyone who missed the wildlife and Christmas tree management meeting held recently, but would like a copy of the information from the meeting, including handouts, should call the Extension service office at 338-3737. Regulation Changed The Illinois Department of Agriculture has eased equine infectious anemia (EIA) control regulations for horses traveling within the state. For intrastate movement of horses, a negative Agar-gel- immunodiffusion (AGED) or Coggins test is now good for twenty-four months rather than twelve months. The regulation c o n t r o l l i n g i n t e r s t a t e movement-across Illinois borders-remains at a negative test within twelve months.
