Bjrock. Statistics show but one acre of alfalfa for four head of cattle in McHenry county as cgntrasted to two cattle per acre of alfalfa in some of /the heavy legume raising counties in the St. Louis dairy section. Increased interest in soil testing for Jjme requirements and available phos- ' V phorus is one of the immediate inter- • «rsts developing from the new pro-; gram. Sweet soil with plenty of j '^available phosphorus are two of the •vR equirements for successful alfalfa j -praising, according to Brock. | Experience has shown that most ' profitable dairy production is obtained from a farming program that al- ;<%.• Jows for a minimum of one acre of al- ^fffalfa for each matute dairy animal gsSon the farm, . An adequate legume acreage on V any stock farm has been found help- ! ful in supplying vitamins not ordinarily supplied by the usuat* concen- . trAted feeds. Hogs, sheep, beef cattle and horses make very good use of an adequate supply of legume hay and pasture, the same as dairy cattle.' , Landon's Is Typical Kansas Family JOHNSBURG INTEREST IN FARM SPORTS FESTIVAL GAINS MOMENTUM Spreading like a prairie fire over all sections of the state, interest in the Illinois Farm Sports Festival to be held at Urbana, September 4 and 5 is steadily gaining momentum, says the Illinois Agricultural Association , in a report to the McHenry County Farm Bureau.

O. P. Chicago, «H1.--Dollar contributions to the campaign fund of the Repub lican National committee are rolling in at the rate of 4,000 a day, ac< cording to George A. Paddock chairman of the committee to raise $1,000,000 by these smaii contribu tions. ; ""/•A Chicago.--Chairman Seymour Wheeler of the Republican Finance committee, only organization which will solicit Republican campaign fund contributions in Illinois, confers with his co-chairmen, Mrs. William H Mitchell (left), and Mrs. Leslie Wheeler. Behind them is an enlarged reproduction of the certificate given to all who contribute to the G. O. P campaign to raise $1,000,000 in dollar contributions. Such contributions sent to Republican National Committee, Drawer S, Chicago, Illinois, »rr been issued intermittently since last divided equally between the national committee and the county commitfall, but the grasshoppers are just| tee where the contributor lives. now beginning to be big enough to be noticed and to make their damage felt throughout the northern three-fourths of the state, according to reports from W. P. Flint, entomologist of the College of Agriculture, University of Illinois and of the Illinois State Natural History Survey. Developments should be watched, especially in clover, alfalfa and soybean fields, and poisoned bran bait or oil bait scattered thinly over the infested area if the hoppers are thicker than 15 to the square yard. The older form of sweetened bran bait is made at the rate of 25 pounds of cheap bran, 1 pound of Pans green or white arsenic, 2 quarts of molasses and 10 or 12 quarts of wat^ er The dry bran and poison are first mixed thoroughly. The molasses is added to about 2 quarts of water, and after this has been mixed, the liquid is poured over the bran-poison mixture and the whole worked until the bran is moistened. Enough water. about 8 to 10 quarts, is then added so that the mixture will ball in the hand when pressed, but separate readily when scattered. The oil bait, which is superior in some respeets, is made the same way as the sweetened bait, except that Z quarts of cheap lubricating oil of S. A. E. 20 replaces the water and molasses as the wetting agent and attxactant. No water should be used in the oil bait. Used oil should not be used in making the bait. _ The bait should be spread at the rate of 10 pounds to the acre in areas where the grasshoppers are feeding. It can be scattered with an end-gate oats seeder or a tin-horn grass seeder or can be spread by hand from horseback or on foot. The bait should never be out in rows or, piles, but should be scattered evenly and tWh iy. ' ______ We write in "All Risk" policy covering motor boats.
