Golfers can only leave their wives for their hobby on nice j weekends, but a hunter can be a | headache all the year around. In ( between seasons he has to exercise his dogs; he has to polish his guns; j he has to paint the old decoys and contrive new ones; he has to keep buying new equipment, which is j only slightly cheaper than an automobile or 'the pursuit of a blonde. Comes the hunting: season--duck season first--and lo, he rises at 4 a.m., the alarm has rung: four times and a friend out in front has honked several long encouraging blasts! He puts on three suits of loner under-' ware, two pairs of overhalls and over that he puts on a dirty, smelly, stiff and unwieldy pair of hunting pants All of this is to keep him warm while he squats in a patch of weeds and brash which he has contrived for just this occasion and which is usually located in a swamp at the edge of a lake. He squats there hours on end, more or less quietly, watching his little niake-believe ducks floating around him and.. all the time he quacks in various tones of encouragement to entice real ducks into believing that if they stop off, they will be among friends. Now there is nothing so appealing lo a girl as a husband practicing his duck calls. The first time he does it, She just can't believe her ears! Following the opening of the duck season, conies the pheasant season, and this time is the time when your demon hunter brings out his dogs, marches sturdily behind them _ for several hundred miles and sometimes shoots a bird. This, of course,' is after the dog has searched it out, come to a point to show where it is, flushed it into the air, and ran and I -M1 'I1 'M1 *1"I'*'1 * '1'• • '1"1"1' CLARENCE'S SHOB (Eljrtatmaa (Sifts Children's barn yards, doll houses, ironing boards, ± 1; table and chair sets, writing desks, children's kitchen ;; cabinets, etc. Hand woven wish baskets, shopping and market $ !! baskets. r « Full - line of lawn furniture, kitchen cabinets and $ cupboards made to order.

Green Street McHenry Prtpmrwd ty Agricultural Dipl., Chicago Journal of Common* World Food Needs Questioned ^ JST how long the pressnt high level export demand for American agricultural products will be maintained -Is a big question confronting the nation's farmers today. The answer to this question IS vital to agriculture in this country generally, and more particularly to those producers who wish now to inaugurate a long-range farm program. Some authorities claim that within a relatively short time agricultural surpluses again will confront the American farmer, while others have expressed the opinion that Europe will provide on outlet for our surpluses during the next four years or for possibly ' ja: longer period. There appears to be little doubt that European countries will he able to absorb til of the food that this country can spare in the ooming year. Farm income in the United States, therefore, nfay be expected lo be maintained at a relatively high level through 1047-48. But the recent numerous contradictory reports of world food needs poses the question as to whether domestic producers can expect profits In future years' from their crop, dairy, poultry and livestock enterprises to approximate the Current high levels. « A fairly recent report of the International Emergency Food Council placed world food and feed Import requirements at 50,000,000 ibns and available exports at 32,000,000 tons, leaving a deficit of •found 18,000,000 tons. And recently, the IEFC lowered its estimate probable grain exports In 1947-48 to around 29,000,000 tons. . . . The IEFC figures and other similar estimates of the food needs abroad have been criticized on the grounds that the official crop statistics of all countries where rationing has been in force for sometime are likely to be colored with gross understatements. Many farmers abroad are forced to sell thejr crops at a fixed cet flee and thm are likely, it is said, to understate their supply hoard it to sell It in the black markets.
