Town-Country Tips by Dovid Ploch«r. Extension Svrvic* 338-3737 338-4747 SECTION 2 - PAGE 2 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. MAY 23,1978 Give Bees Space- This time of year it is essential to give colonies of honey bees the space they need to expand their brood-rearing activities and to store new supplies of nectar and pollen. Overwintered colonies should have had their brood set down into the bottom of the brood chamber at least once by now. The process is called "reversing" and it stimulates the further development of the colony and Plan Ventilation Into New Swine Facilities- If you intend to build new swine.facilities, be sure to include energy con servation plans. U of I agricultural engineer Art Muehling said that ventilation is the major area of energy loss in hog buildings, especially farrowing and nursery buildings. Drafts can cause excessive energy use during the winter months, according to Muehling. Baby pigs are vulnerable to drafts and so the producer must < compensate by keeping the building warm, between 80 and 85 degrees. Solid floor sleeping areas, solid partitions and heat lamps require room tem peratures of about 70 degrees. Also consider that growing an finishing hogs and sows in confinement could get along well with natural ventilation throughout the summer. The biggest problem with natural ventilation ifc that every time the weather (changes someone should chande all the doors and windows, j/There is a mechanical door opener on the market that automatically opens and closes doors during rapid tempenturt changes Muehling recommends piling air- cooled or not- to the sow's head to relieve heat stress without chilling the babies. While cooled air is more effective, even untreated air helps. Swine Reproduction Clinic Set- A Swine reproduction clinic has been set to demonstrate practical approaches to im proving twine reproduction.. The clink will be held JunsM and 29, at the Paradise Inn, Champaign, 111., from 1 p.m. through the evening of the first day, and concluding at 2 p.m. the second day. Topics to be covered include: general reproductive biology, selection and development of breeding stock, checking estrus and proper breeding time, developing a gflt pool, boar management, checking the boar* reproduc t ive capabilities, introduction of new animals, causes of reproductive failures, use of' artificial insemination and the application of management schedules. A shopping tour is planned for the wives the second day. Persons interested in at tending one of the clinics may reserve a place prior to June IS by writing to Letf Thompson, U of I Reproductive physiologist, 320fumford Hall, Urbana, ID. 61801 or by calling 217- 356-7349. Motel reservations must be made by contacting the Paradise Inn Motel, S. Route 45, Champaign, 111., 217-356- 1824. Reservations are on a first come basis. • The clinic will be repeated July 11 and 12. Dairy Research- National dairy records show that dairy far- mere cu l l : 25 to 35 pe rcen t Qf r their cows for reproductive problems. - Research over the past several years concludes that hormonal induction of lactation has come a long way. Your veternarian or I have more details. Spring Lamb Show- Lamb shows, ram sales, judging contests and a barbecue are the activities to be featured at Springfield on June 9. Your entry for the carcass show must be made before June 2. The premier division entries had to be made before the lambs were 31 days old. Hay Preservatives- If you are considering a hay preservative keep in mind that grass hay with 25 percent or less moisture and alfalfa hay with 22 percent or less moisture do not require a preservative if stored properly. U of I studies suggest these optimum rates for proprionic acid use: 1 percent by weight for grass hay and 2 percent for alfalfa hay. White Grubs- White grubs are being found around trees and shrubs and when expanding gardens into the lawn area. These grubs are full grown and have returned from their over wintering area below the frostline. t/ . Even though the grubs are feeding on roots, no treatment is needed through the spring months. The worms will pupate in May. If needed, control is most effective in early August^ Box-Elder Bugs Box- elder Bugs are continuing to cause problems as they emerge from their overwintering sites, such as between wall voids, underneath shingles and in the cracks and crevices of struc tures. Control of the box-elder bugs is not too effective in the spring. In the home, use a vacuum cleaner or a broom to eliminate the pests. More effective control can be achieved in the fall. A residual spray of .5 percent diazinon (5 tablespoons of the 25 percent emulsified concentrate per gallon of water) or of .25 percent car- baryl (Sevin, 2 tablespoons of the 50 percent wettable powder per gallon of water) applied to tree trunks, foundation walls and other areas where the bugs gather will reduce their numbers. Seal all cracks and keep window screens in good repair to keep the bugs out of the house. temporarily relieves the need for extra hive space. Before the bees start, swarming, you should add more supers to accomodate the increasing number of adult bees in the colony, regardless of whether or not there is nectar flow. More information on hive space is available in the May edition of the Bees and Honey Newsletter written by Dr. Jaycox, U of I extension beekeeping specialist. Local Girl Candy Queen T.V.'s trophies, clock radios and shopping sprees were prizes awarded May 12 ro Camp Fire Girls for the high sellers during their recent candy sale. Over 40,000 boxes of candy were sold during the 1979 campaign. The children were rewarded for individual efforts at the HiSaCe (High Sales Ceremony) awards in Elgin at the Church of the Brethren. Katharine Kupstis of McHenry was crowned Candy Queen. She is a second grade student at Valley View school, Kathy won a T.V. set for her efforts and was joined in her court by winners Kathie Williams, Andrea Wilczynski, Robyn Halley, Claudine and Clarabelle Martin and Shari and Shawn Ketchum. Camp Fire, a United Way agency, has an annual candy sale to support its local Council consisting of girls from McHenry, Crystal Lake, Carpenters ville, Hampshire, Plato Center, St. Charles, Stream wood and Elgin. Profits from the sale help defray the expanses of Day camp held each summer at Camp Big Timber, Elgin, as well as new programming and training for leaders. Heading up this years goals will be the expansion of Camp Fire into a boy's program, consisting of boys on the first, second and third grade levels.

BAGS ICE 2 FOR Value Of Well Child Clinics SECTION 2 - PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 1979 (from the McHenry County Department of Health) The young mother smiled securely as she watched her infant sleep. Cares that had beset her grandmothers were far away - the constant threat of castastrophic childhood disease that plagued mothers just a few generations back was only a recollection from books and family albums. She knew her child was safe. Keeping a child safe from disease is no easy task. The process starts early in life and demands continuous medical attention. It takes a lot of care and thought-and money-to protect that priceless infant. That's why the McHenry County Department of Health offers the twice-monthly Well Child clinic for children from newborns through six-year- olds. Designed for those who cannot afford proper medical care, the clinic runs from 8:30- 10:30 a.m. every second Tuesday and third Wednesday in Room 101 of the county courthouse, Woodstock. The walk-in clinic is staffed by a local pediatrician, a pediatric nurse associate, a dental hygienist and public health nurses. The highly successful program, in its fifth year, was recently expanded to twice a month because of growing demand~470 children last year got a better chance at health through the Well Child clinic. A trip to the clinic can provide immunizations, blood tests, tuberculosis testing, dental screening, physical examinations and medication p r e s c r i p t i o n s . M e d i c a l histories are compiled and general health counseling of fered. Patterns of growth and development are assessed. Polio and diphtheria, to most people, are dreaded killers of the past, not a big worry in these times. If they are to remain only unpleasant memories, immunizations must start when an infant is two to three months old. Regular monitoring of a child's growth and develop ment is perhaps the most important service the clinic offers. Newborns should see a doctor at one month, with regular checkups every one to two months for the first twelve months of life. A lot of mothers' worries have been eased by medical advances in recent years, and the Well Child clinic can ease a few more. Toasted Rice Cooks in Spain prefer a nutty taste with rice in casseroles. To get that, they toast the rice. To toast rice, heat oil in a large, heavy skillet. Then, sprinkle raw, long-grain rice over the oil and cook, stirring constantly, until the rice is golden. the Fixin's for Outdoor Fun! PLUS, YOU GEtC^IGREEN STAMPS TOO! 3750 W.

What is the difference? between group health in suran^e plans (paid for by the employer* and Workmen's Compensation? Recently, a fellow employee used her group insurance ID card for emergency room service after having fallen at work Later our employer told her she should not have used the card since her fal l was covered by Workmen's Compensation insurance. We still don't un derstand the deference, pli.s, we don't have Workmcr 's Compensation insurance ID cards Workmen's Compensation or Occupational Diseases in surance covers employee work related injuries, diseases und deaths. Generally, employci- sponsored group health in surance plans covej- rnedi .al charges provided by doctors, hospitals and other heal th service providers except for work related in jur ies, d iseases and deaths While your em ployer is not required to supply you with Workmen's Com pensation insurance ID cards he is required to post the name address, policy number of his workmen's compensation in surance carrier <or service company if he is self-insured/ and other information in a conspicuous place in the work area. This posted information should be used by employee^ 1 when obtaining medical or surgical services resulting from work related injuries and diseases . Be sure to notify your employer of any work related accident as soon as practicably, but not later than 45 days after the accident.

After being out of work for several weeks, I finally found an employer who was in terested in my background. I was told they would like to hire me, but they require a fidelity bond. I already know that I can't be bonded because I have been turned down twice this year when insurance com panies discovered I was con victed of petty theft some years back Is there a way I could "bond" myself? No, but the Job Service can provide a bond up to $20,000 if regular commercial bonding agencies won't. Visit the nearest Job Service office and ask for the Bonding Coor dinator. Like all of their ser vices, there is no charge to you or to the employer for the bonding. Questions may be submitted to Workwise, 910, S Michigan. Room 1823, Chicago. 111., 60605, 312-793-2817.
