Herrington, states* tliat he has received no Word from Washington giving the final date at the present time. However, it is advisable that any who have not signed up and who desire to do so get their contracts in immediately Since the dead line may be announced at any time. An analysis of the sign-up in McHenry county indicates that the re_ sponse to the program has been very satisfactory since in areas where hogs are grown the sign-up is good. McHenry county is not a' large hog producing county and this explains why the sign-up here is small as compared with such counties as DeKalb. It is estimated that those .who have already signed up will receive between ?50,000 and $75,000 in benefit payments. The largest single benefit payment on the part of an individual* wiil go to a farmer in McHenry towntehip whose benefit payment# will b# approximately $1,800. While the ben*: fffit payments will be of great help thf main idea back of the program Is to reduce the number of hog?, and .thereby more nearly adjust the supply to market" demands. Hog producershave become conscious of the fact that: they have lost a market for 10,000,000 head of hogs annually. TJJhe temporary corn-hog committee has decided to schedule three additional corn-hog sign-up meetings for McHenry county, according to the following schedule: Saturday, Feb. 24, at the Marengo Monday, Feb. 26, at the Harvard High School, 9 a. m. to 3 p. m Tuesday, Feb. 21, at the Farm Bureau Office, Woodstock, 9 a- m. to 3 p. m Already nine sign-up meetings havs been held and it Was the intention of the committee to hold no additional meetings after the nine had been held. However, the committee finds that there is quite a sprinkling of farmers over the territory who want to sign, but did not attend any of the above meetings. A few of those who did not get in state that they did not receive notices, some say that they did not have all their data complete and others say that they have been misinformed on what the program has to offer them The benefit payments to McVIenry county farmers will be between $75,- 000 and $100,000. Eight contracts were picked out of a group of 200 at random and the benefit payments cal culated. These eight may be consi<& ered a9 average for the group. Tha benefit payments for the eight are as follows: Co-operator No. 1--4417.00. Co-operator No. 2--$144.00. Co-operator No. 3--$120.00. Co-operator No. 4--$105.00. Co-operator No. 5--$203.00. Co-operator No. 6--$385.00. Co-operator No. 7--J180.00. Co-cperator No. 8--$1345.00. ^ Making an average of $362.00. Members of the temporary committee are as follows: E. F. Kueeketj Marengo; Jacob Olbrich, Harvard; Ben Justen, Ringwood; E. C. Hughe.*, Woodstock; R. J. Leisch, Woodstock; Lyle Vanderkarr, Hebron, and Henry Eggers, Huntley.
