P. ftndt . *»t the College of Agriculture ai Urbau asks as for {information .'egarding the expenditures of •ooney by the Farm Bureau in support of 4-H club work. The reason la that he and others .*rom the college will appear before a congressional. committee in hearings on the TTiomaa-Grfciiger bill, which will be considered soon. bill.will, if passed, separate She extension service from the Farm Bureau, Home Bureau, or any other privately supported nonprofit organisation according unofficial 'University of Iltlnoii^ legal opinion. No Chamber of Commerce, boosters club, or other organisation could legally, support (his Work. No one could donate a trophy for the fair. How far will this reach? It will the National 4-H Club Con* grass held in Chicago each year, it will kill the National Committee an Boys and Girls Club work, an organization supported by many big companies and which coordinates the work of the many states and makes available at cost many supplies such as T shirts, medals, signs, pins, etc. We get most all of our supplies there. The bill is based on jealousy beween national farm organisations. The information we are sending in to Dean Rusk, as taken from our 1949 audit and from our 1949 extension service report, includes $2097.84 spent on agricultural 4-H work in McHenry county for premiums, ribbons, pins, meeting expense, promotion, leaders' dinners, etc. We received against this, $966 state ai^-and 9225 county aid, mak- ,^pg a net expended of 6906.84. In adaHlos; I&M.91 of the salary of the farm adviser and assistant farm adviser paid by the Farm Bureau should be charged to 4-H work, based on the time spent on this work. Likewise, automobile expense which the Farm Bureau pays on the same basis amounted to $337.82 . Estimating 25 per cent of the ..office salary expense, postage, tytAce, etc., would add $1,091.44, making a to'al spent by the McHenry oouty Farm ^Bureau in 1949 of $1183.61 to carry on agricultural 4-H work In the county.

Nature don't work that way though. 1 suppose you get the idea I don't like daylight saving time. It just adds another hour to my twelve-hour day The office opens at 7 a.m. now and night meetings won't start until about dark anyway. '*• Of course, with the late season, farmers will be able to use the jp extra hour getting crops in now. People are becoming very tax conscious. The other day a McHenry county farmer told me he didn't sign up with the P.M.A. fpr soil building payments this year. On further Questioning he said it didn't amount to too much anyway and it added to the over-all tax burden which he said was getting beyond him. All people don't- think that way, however. Another farmer stated that he hired three able bodied men to help him for about a week to do some Improvement around his farmstead. The day before they were to go to work they called and said they had better not work for him because it would affect their unemployment status so they couldnt draw full unemployment pay. Of course, these men probab- NATIONAL CARE WEEK THROUGHOUT COUNTRY National CARE Week is being celebrated throughout the country from May 1 through May 7.
