Check post office If one's wallet or purse has been lost or stolen, there's a chance it will be recovered and returned through the U.S. Mail. Postmaster LeRoy M. Smith said post offices frequently find billfolds and handbags in street collection boxes. y Most of the wallets and purses that wind up at centralized "dead letter" offices, where post offices send them, have been stolen and arrive without cash, but many do contain driver'a licenses and other items. "A few apparently were lost by the owners," Postmaster Smith said, "and the finders dropped than in the nearest collection box, complete with money, credit cards and other contents." Postal dead letter offices check all wallets and purses received and mail those that can be# identified to the owners, postage due. "If they contain more than $10 in cash, the wallet or purse is returned by registered mail," Postmaster Smith said. Those that cannot be iden­ tified are held for 30 days in the event they are claimed by their owners. There is no charge if the owner picks up the purse or wallet at the dead letter office. Plan fall tillage to save soil If you happened to be driving south on Route 47 this past spring, you will recall seeing roadside dit­ ches which had been filled by displaced soil from adjacent fields. Wind erosion is a major problem in Illinois. Control of such erosion should be a top priority when planning this fall's ~ program. tillage Wind and water erosion can be greatly reduced when conserva- The [EXTENSION) People' AMml Uon tillage practices are used and the soil is protected by a mulch of crop residue. - The amount of residue needed to meet acceptable soil loss levels depends on such factors as soil type, slope characteristics, climate, crop rotation, and other soil conserva­ tion practices. Information on estimating soil losses and the emount of residue required to .reduce erosion is available, from the Soil Conservation and Exten­ sion Services.

For example, moldboard plowing leaves from zero to five percent of the crop residue on the surface, whereas straight chisel plowing leaves 75 to 80 percent of the residue. Other tillage operations and the percent residue they leave are: offset disking 25 to 50 per­ cent, light tandem disking of stover 85 to 90 percent, secondary tandem disking 40 to 60 percent, and field cultivator sweeps 75 to 80 percent. * More complete control of soil erosion may be accomplished by eliminating jinnecessary fall tillage of soybean stubble land or instituting a zero-tillage system. Both of these practices result in savings of time, money and soil. " For additional information, con­ tact the McHenry County Exten­ sion Service office at 789 McHenry Avenue, P.O.
