A terrific and exciting game was played on Sunday afternoon between two fine teams, McCullom Lake NA G, and the Wonder Lake A.C^with our boys the victors by a score of 11-5.

The victors of this game will play the Blatz Beer team on Sunday to determine first place winner of the league. This has been an exciting season for our ball players and win, lose or draw from now on they are to be commended tot their sportsmanship and sens* of fair play. Father McGowan of McHenry deserves praise for his part organizing the league. Don't Forget That Numb* For your news, please call 537-W-2. We're interested in what you do!!

Drouth in the Middle West has cut into feed prospects here, but rain in the southwestern drouth area has brought renewed hope there. This may add up to less meats and dairy products in the months ahead, than had been expected. Crop conditions In the Midwest are quite variable. Some areas-- Minnesota, for example -- have had excessive rainfall. Hay went up in poor condition, .and some corn may be late in maturing. The southern and southwestern parts of the Corn Belt have suffered seriously from lack of rain. It now seems likely that the corn crop estimates will be progressively reduced. Instead of 3.3 billion bushels as was forecast on Aug. 1, the December report may show no more than 3.0 to 3.2 billion bushels. If the crop falls to the lower figure, supplies will be. fairly well tied up. A crop of 3.0 billion bushels would just about meet our needs for feed, industrial uses and exports. The carry-over of old corn on Oct. 1 will be around 800 million bushels. Of this amount, the government CCC will own nearly 600 million, leaving only about 200 million bushels in private hands. This* 200 millon bushels plus a crop of 3.0 billion would make a total of 3.2 billion outside of government stocks. Such a supply situation would leave only 200 million bushels of privately owned corn for carry-over a year from now. If the 1953 crop does turn Out to be only 3.0 billion bushels. the total carry-over next falli (1954) will be around 800 million bushels, or about the same as we will have this fall (Oct. 1, 1953). One thir.g that would make an important difference is that there may be little or no increase in government stocks in the coming year, whereas government stocks increased by around 300 million bushels during the past year. This should make markets at least as gool as we had for the 1953 corn crop. Soybean prospects are very poor in many parts of the sou them half of Illinois! But the soybean is a persistant plant, and it will probably make a good yield in most areas. Total supplies available for crushing may be as large as they have been in the past year. More often than not, it fcas paid to store soybeans at harvest time and sell later. This past year was an 11 exception. Prospects are fairly good that it will pay to store the 1953 crop, especially if the price slips seriously at harvest time. The prospects for less corn will probably restrict any expansion in the 1954 spring pig crop. The effect will be slightly lower prices this winter than had been expected and higher prices next summer and the following fall. Want A«», Hke frtdm, an everybody's business.

That's when the dream started in his heart --and refused to leave. Six times, before today, he has signed his name to an application for a motor car title-- and, on every occasion, he knew it was a compromise. But not this time'.He is taking the keys to a beautiful 1953 Cadillac--and his 30-yearold dream is coming true. And what a fulfillment it will be, as he rdlls out into the highway and heads tor home! First of all, he'll get those quick glances of Approval which tell him the dream hi dreamed for so many years is still in the heart* of others. And then the car's great performance,will ^egin to unfold itself.

And, oh, what comfort! It's like sitting in the easiest chair conceivable --and moving smoothly and effortlessly through space. And then, almost before he knows it, Keif be home--and in the driveway--with the family rushing out with the final voice of confirmation. This was worth waiting and working for! * • • And, of course, the years and the miles will add their proof as to the wisdom of his choice: dependability--Jong life--economy of upkeep and operation--and unusual reSale value. Yes, there is every practical as well as every personal reason for owning a Cadillac. Better come in and see us today. It's probably^ easier than you think to make ymnf dream of Cadillac ownership come true. OVERTON CADILLAC 400 Front Street McHenry PONTIACfi Co Phone 17 \ *J.V
