Jwm IX • , ; " * > ' *' ^ THE HcHENRY PLXDIDfiAL^t LAKEMOOR & LILYMOOR (by Kitty WoJtaa) HF" Ami ; The newly elected officers of Lakemoor and some of their friends and co-workers in the recent campaign, held a victory t>arty at the Vogue last Wednesday evening. People from both major political parties in the village came in during the evening to offer their congratulations, and extend their good wlahea to new officers. Friday evening a meeting was held at the Leon Sex office, and , work on the new ordinances fw , die village was started. Have you noticed the "facelifting" Job that Stella and Ray Blad^g are having done on the "Vogue"? That new front is to be a real eye-catcher. What's this I hear, about Howard Dorsey using nothing innaller than Wall Eyes for bait when he goes fishing up in Canada? All kidding aside, we wish him luck with the "big ones", up in Sturgeon Lake. Howard left Sunday morning for this fisherman's paradise in Canada, where he will spend a few . jq^ks with the rod and reel , John Bonder, another of our kishing fans, left Sunday for a \rip to Hayward, Wis., where he 1411 try his luck with the musi ies. i " P I The McDermott family is cer- | ' nly having their share of ex I u ement this week. Helen Baakoj r. ch, a sister of Jenny, is staying j'for awhile at their home. Heler «Us from Duluth, Minn. Satur day, the family were guests at two weddings. The first one war the James-Russell wedding whicf was held at the Country Club ir La Grange. The other was the Kraus--Noble wedding at Glen coe. With two graduation parties and a convention in Springfiek thrown in for good • measure, i* gives us an idea of what the bus test couple in Lakemoor do ir viJeir spare time. ' Some people seem to be borr with a four-leaf clover tucker under their arm, and Judy De Cicco is one of them. Thursday evening a graduation party fomembers of the family and clos' friends was held in her honor The young miss received twr wrist watches among some other haautiful gifts. She also was giver orchid to wear on her dress •at the graduation ceremony by 8 friend of the family. With so many people rooting for her, she is one gal that should go places In this world. "T --. - ; The members of the Canasta fclflb in Lilymoor held a stork shower for Lil Wijas last Wednesday evening at Club Lilymoor, jg^d it came as a complete surprise to the guest of honor. Mary Harvey decorated the table, and it was beautifully done with pink land white carnations as the centerpiece. A buffet luncheon was served to the twenty-five guests who attended. to be the only one in the house. As she entered the bathroom, her little four-year-old nephew who was visiting the family, came bounding out the door, and he ran directly into his aunt. Ann threw her body forward, thus spilling the greater part of the scalding water over the floor. Had she not done this he would have been scalded over his entire body. Luckily only his arm was burned but Ann is still suffering from burns she received on her shower and upper body. We are very sorry to* learn "of the death of Richard Fritzache's father, who passed away last Tuesday. Our condolences to the family at this very difficult time. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Holcapfel, of the "Bus Stop", have joined the Stork club. The new addition to the family arrived June 4, and weighted close to 9 pounds. He has been named Herman Augustine, Herman for his daddy's father, and Augustine for his mommy's father. Little "Hermie" takes the honor of being the first new arrival in our brand new village since the village officers were elected. The HotepfUs have three other sons. The Lily Lake Beautifying club is having its regular monthly meeting on Tuesday, June 17, at the Bible church. All old members, well as the new, are requested to attend this meeting. A discusiion will be held, involving plans for a beach party, and the officers would like to have a large attendance to get a broader viewpoint. The question has been triced, now that we are operating as a will the garbage be dis- "*>sed of by the village ? I waf >sked to print that the village vill not be in a position to remove garbage for some time as here is no money in the treasury lo begin with. The Beautifying "lub and the Lakeside Improvement association will still handle "hese things until the village has lhe necessary money in the treasury to take over. People are irged to keep their membership \nd support their clubs in their vork to improve the community. A meeting o fthe Lakeside Improvement association will be held Tuesday, June 17,. at 8 p.m. at the Tower building. Refreshments wffl be served "after the meeting. The new membership drive for the L.I.A. is now in progress and the new members are really pouring in. r Ann DeCicco prevented an unfortunate accident from becoming a real tragedy by her quick ^linking recently. Ann was carrying a pan of steaming hot water into the bathroom to wash a few ' things, and she believed herself VI Vineer deserves ft pat on the back for her thoughtfulness in getting signs for the beach road, warning motorists of the children who do forget to be careful and cautioning them to drive slowly. The cooperation of residents has been asked in keeping dogs off the beaches. We all love our pets, but the beach is one place they just don't belong. Gertrude Hyatt reached the age of 21 and able to vote, five days too late to vote in our local elec tion. She celebrated her birthday June 8. Gert went boating with the Marsh family last Saturday and she developed a terrific sun and wind burn.

Under this was placed a little crepe paper crib with a tiny baby doll in it. One of the outstanding gifts was a baby bassinette, lined with blue satin. The hood was covered with ruffles' to resemble a baby bonnet. A luncheon of bar-b-cues, potato chips, assorted relishes, cake and coffee was served to the thirty guests who attended. Saturday morning at 3.08 a.m. the stork called on the Ronald Sells family and left them an 8 lb. 10 or. heir, at the Woodstock hospital. He has been named Lawrence Raymond.

Tamxneos Just north of thp viaduct on the east side of route 47 between McConnell road and the railroad track is an interesting piece of corn. It is the first corn I ever planted with a tractor planter, or as far as I can remember, ever planted. You know how it is. Dad does the planting when the kids are at home so that is one job they don't very often learn. The evidence will plague me all summer I suppose. I'm interested in seeing whether we will be able to cultivate it crossways. We plan to prove or disprove some of the theories of corn fertilization with this plot if the quack grass doesn't prove you can't grow com and quack in the same field. The field Was fertilised in plots crossways (east and west) with 500 pounds of Calfide per acre on one ploj, 600 pounds of 0-20-20 per acre on another, 900 pounuds of 10-10-10 plus 200 pounds of ammonium nitrate on another and 200 pounds of ammonium nitrate per acre on another. The south edge of the plot next to the railroad has none. The corn was planted north and south, using- 80 pounds of 5-15-10 fertilizer hill dropped per acre on the east third, 200 pounds on the middle third and none on the west third. This leaves the southwest corner of the plot with no fertilizer at all of any kind as compared to everything in the book on some othetr areas of the field. The corn is a Nichols hybrid ninety-five days planted June 6 on run-out alfalfa brome sod, mostly quack grass. Last week I attended spring Conference at ' Urbana, learning a few of the new things. We saw equipment to put sulfur dioxide in silage as a preserv ative. It is a liquid in a tank under pressure and turns to gas when released. It is put in the silage with a long heedle about a half inch in diameter and 5 feet long. This is on the end of a hose running from the tank and is stuck down into the silage after putting in each five ft. of silage. It is acid and serves the purpose of getting an acid reaction in the silage. Silage should be about a reaction of pH 4 when neutral is 6.5. A pH of 4 is about the same acidity as soil, needing about four tons of limestone per acre. This would certainly give us the idea that we sure wouldn't want to use limestone as a preservative for silage. Milk production in April on Illinois farms was the smallest in M the past fifteen years and we, have the smallest number of cows j •n twenty-two years. Production' was 5 percent less than a year ago and 14 percent below the last ten-year average. The U. S. picture is about the same except ndt quite so drastic. j The Illinois Crop Improvement J Association, the organization that is responsible for certifying all pure seed in the state, will hold, its annual banquet June 24 at Urbana and its annual field day at the University farm the next day, June 25. Reservations must be in by June 20 for the banquet. The annual meeting starts at 2:30 p.m. before the banquet at the Urbana Lincoln hotel. Why all this announcement? I think a lot of you fellows who make a business of raising certified seed should attend to be better informed about your business. There is no substitute for knowing what's going on in the business you are in. TREE SPRAYING ying to protect elm trees in central Illinois against U\e deadly disease, phloem necrosis, may be started now, and the first application ought to be completed not later than June 15 or 20. An unusually warm April helped to bring the leaves to full size about- three weeks earlier than u^ial. In giving this advice. Dr. J. Cedric Carter, plant pathologist of the state Natural History Survey, recommends a special mixture of DDT applied by a mist blower or high-power hydraulic sprayer. While phloem necrosis 6f elms is fairly general in the southern two-tfiirds of Illinois, most concern about the disease is along the northern boundary of its range -- Danville, Champaign- Urbana, Bloomington, Peoria west to Burlington, Iowa, A second spraying should be applied In July or August, after the elms have developed a second growth of leaves, Dr. Carter says.

But we still think that Dynaflow* Is the best of all for this simple reason: The big idea of Dynaflow Drive is to make life easy for the driver. In traffic, you can start and stop, slovv down, accelerate with complete and infinite smoothness -- because no gears have to shift, ever, in Dynaflow Drive. So there's no lurch, buck or bobble. Dynaflow always feeds power with a steady, willing swoop-at 3 miles an foot relaxed on the throttle -- because you always drive through oil. And at any speed you get a smoother ride, in part because Dynaflow Drive provides such a smooth and gentle linkage between that mighty Fireball 5 Engine and the rest of the chassis. But this is not all. Our service records show that Dynaflow also makes life easier for your bank account. It saves wear and strain on the engine, banishes the cost of clutch repairs, saves strain on the transmission and even on the rear tires. CommrtHU.
