McHenry's Red Cross quota went "over the top" at 11:33 this (Thurs­ day) morning. This news was tele­ phoned to us just before going to press and thus it reached us too late to make correction in our front page article. The oven for the McHenry bakery in the Grot building in Centerville has been erected and the work of re­ painting the interior of the building is now under way. Mr. Lallinger hopes to be nicely settled in his new quarters by the nrst of the month. The oil for our streets has arrived and the work of spreading same will begin at once.

CANDIDATE FOR JUDGE B. F. Manley of Harvard Here Wednesday Atty. B. F. Manley of Harvard was a caller in town on Wednesday morning of this week. He is a Re­ publican candidate for county judge for McHenry county. Mr. Manley was born in the town of Alden on a farm, where he re­ sided until he began teaching school. He taught school for six years in the county and graduated from the Western Normal college and Com­ mercial institute* in the year 1894, graduated from the law department of the Northwestern University in 1899 and was admitted to the bar in the same year. He practiced law two years in Chicago and in October, 1902, located in Harvard, where he has since resided and practiced his profession. In August, 1905, he was elected president of the board of education at Harvard, which position he has filled continuously since his election. He has also served as city attorney of Harvard for the past twelve con­ secutive years, is president of the board of trustees of the First Pres­ byterian church of that city and vice president of the McHenry County Bar association. His. practice has been largely In the probate court of McHenry coun­ ty in the handling of estates and spe­ cial assessment work, in both of which he has had a vast amount of experience. He made the campaign for county judge four years ago and was defeated by the small margin or '200 votes in the ommHr . ... .^ ^ • . ' n ' ' Al! are well aware of the seetf^eora situation thruout this county and this state generally. Never in the history of our country have we been con­ fronted with such a serious seed corn situation. Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan and all of the other states in the corn belt are up against the same propo­ sition as our state We need the hearty co-operation of every farmer in the state and I know we have yours We have tried our best to give you the best corn avail­ able for our territory. We could have given you southern corn, germinating 95 to 100 per cent. The planting of such would have worked the greatest hardship possible to our entire terri­ tory, as we would stand no show of any crop at all. If we havf made any mistakes in providing you with corn, meet us half way and I assure you we will treat you justly. In the production of a corn crop, you must realize that the seed is only one factor out of about six which are necessary. A few of the other fac­ tors which have a vital influence an the corn crop are: 1. A well prepared seed bed* 2 Warm soil. -{-J, 3.. Moisture. 4. Fertility or plant food. 5 Air and soil. In view of tliis, you must realize that the utmost care must be taken in planting the seed. You should be sure that you have a good seed bed, warm soil, sufficient moisture and sufficient air in soil. You must have enough plant food to nourish the plant. If any of the above are lacking you may lose your crop as quickly as if you plant poor seed. Therefore, be careful about your planting this year above all others, as you have no come­ back with the weather man when the corn is in the ground. Plant your corn a little later this year and be sure your soil is in good condition. Plant your corn a little thicker as the germination is not as strong as in former years. Plant your corn as shallow as pos­ sible and still have it covered. Take no chances with your corn crop. You owe it to yourself and your country to put your crop In in the best possible manner. ^ A. J. Gafke, County Agent Selective Service Regulation® Section 116 of the selective ser­ vice regulations provides as follows: "Every registrant shall, within five days after the happening thereof, report to his local board any fact which might ch«n$* or affect his classification. 'Failure to report change of status as herein required, or making a false report thereof, is a misdemeanor pun­ ishable by one year's imprisonment." This regulation has the same force and effect as law. It behooves every man registered under the selective service law to observe the provisions of this section exploitly. If the let­ ter and the spirit of section 116 are not enforced and obeyed, the intent of the selective service system is thwarted To this end this district board has communicated with the United States Department of Justice and American Protective league with a view towards prosecution in the criminal courts of any person who fails to report change of status. The information properly should be in the form of affidavits and com­ municated to the registrant's local board, not to the district board. When the facts are made known to the local board, the local board will instruct the registrant with preference to further consideration. It is particularly important that men employed in agricultural and in­ dustrial occupations report changes, of tenancy, changes of employers and changes of employment. In fact, any circumstances whatsoever that even might effect the classification of the registrant must be communicated within five days to his local board under penalty of imprisonment for Anchor to ̂ Windward Did you ever feel the embarrassment of being dead broke and - toothing in sight?
