Stewart, proprietor of NipWrsink Wood Farm, northeast of Woodstock, according to information received by Farm Adviser John H. Brock from ~B. H. Heide, secretary-manager of the show. According to the Exposition management,- Mr. Stewart will exhibit in the Percheron draft "horse competitions of this largest live stock show on the Continent. Entries of individual animals will close on November 1st. -Grain and Hay Show entries will be accepted Until November 10th, and for the carlot classes of commercial cattle, sheep ,nd swine, nominations may be made litil November 23. .•* •<' .»•**•• SOYBEAN OIL MEAL ' • " IS A POPULAR FEED The large acreage of soybeans in Illinois wip make available a liberal supply of soybean oil meal to supply the extra protein needed on McHenry County farms, according to Farm Adviser John H. Brock. > . This standard by-product of the great Illinois soybean crop has thoroughly established its merits as an all-around healthful and suitable high protein feed. At present prices it has a low cost for each pound of protein as compared with other supplementary feeds. Prices may work relatively lower as the meal from the immense soybean crop comes on to the market later on. Prof. E. T. Robbins, Livestock Extension Specialist of the University of Illinois, suggests that hog raisers particularly should feed the soybean oil meal instead of ground soybeans. The soybean oil meal produces firm pork; whereas the beans produce soft pork. Every shipment of soft hogs hurts the reputation of that locality upon the markets. • Some tests indicate that i^hogs are given flree access to 'powdered limestone, the soybean oil meal gives nearly as good results per ton as tankage. LONG LOOK AHEAD - REVEALS PITFALLS a Ip,N HOG SITUATION When McHenry farmers weigh the facts to decide whether to vote "yes" or "ho" during the national corn-hog referendum, they will need to take a reasonably long look ahead to find the pitfalls in the' corn-outlook for the next few yfears, said E. F. Kueck^ er, president of the McHenry County Corn-Hog Control Association. It will be 1937 before the large 1935 corn crop now in the making and the prospective large 1936 crop will show up in the number of hogs marketed, he pointed out. » : , The decision as to whether or not farmers favor a corn-hog adjustment plan to follow the 1935 program can not safely be made on the basis of present conditions or»even on the outlook for a single year ahead, he pointed out, There are many farmers still living who can remember three times during the past 40 years when they were up pgainst the same problem that faces them during the next few years in, getting feed supplies and livestock numbers back into balance again. ^ The most recent instance was in 1921 and 1922 when corn supplies for each hog averaged 55 bushels, or 20 percent more than during the previous five years. In 1923 hog production was 3.4 billion pounds, or 36 percent larger, than in 1921. This cycle had its beginning when hog numbers were liquidated during and immediately following the World War. Already feed supplies are so far out of line with livestock numbers as a result of the drouth that the grain supply for each animal for the 1935- 1936 feeding season undoubtedly will be larger than in any year since the War, with the .exception of 1926. If there is no ^adjustment program following " the 1935 contract and only average yields are obtained on the country's five year average acreage for 1928-32, corn supplies per hog will be boosted farther in 1936 and 1937. The prospective increase is enough to make com supplies per hog within the next two years 50 percent larger than the average supply for the five years before 1935. This large supply Will set the stage for one of the greatest increases in hog production that the country has ever seen during a period of similiar length with consequent disastrous hog prices. - In the referendum farmers themselves have a chance to make the Thursday, ^October, £4, 1935 i choice between a program designed t# hold corn production down to a desir* able level and to prevent an excessive increase in hog numbers or the alter* native of releasing control both oi corn acreage and hog production an<l risking the rapid and unlimited in* creases in hog production and marketings which have occurred) in the past.

Such cakes are practically unobtainable in the city and are priceless samples of home-cooking but, just the same, they go into the 35 cent jackpot. Mrs. B. Is a sensational biscuit maker, with a gdod degree of local renown. Her job is to provide the light and fluffy rolls. Mrs. C. is the local queen In the domain of "trimmings," such as cottage cheese, grape jelly and strawberry preserves. She robs her own shelves in order to make the party a success. She has to be a liberal contributor in order to keep up with the others and head off any sly suggestion that she has a strain of stepmother in her. • Mrs. D. is the prize coffee maker.

The "supper" represents an ^assembling of units, turned out by experts, and the finished product lays over what you get at filling stations and lunch counters. If you have a great crowd of people to feed, the best thing you can do; is to make a deal with the sisters. They will bring an army of waitresses who would cost more, if you hired them, than the total bill turned in by the lady manager. The girls of all ages love the flutter and bopping about and genial hub-bub of an indoor celebration and waiting on the table, when it is done &s a labor of love, becomes an adventure and a gay experience. The comical male customers are given to bantering conversation with the waitress (known by her first name), and she must talk back and be sure of many a hearty guffaw, because everything is at high tension and any kind of wise crack is a welcome relief and sure fire hit. After it is all over the girls count up what they have taken in and put It in the treasury as "velvet."
