Page Twelve THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Urge Calf Vaccination EASTER TURKEY SYMBOL OF FAITH TO MANY. Once rarely served except at Thanksgiving, turkey is now an Easter tradition. A symbol of faith since the Pilgrims' time, turkey fittingly belongs on the Easter table. In many homes, it is accompanied by eggs, the symbol of life's renewal. This Easter is an especially good time to grace your table with turkey: family-size birds will be plentiful and of excellent quality. To garnish turkey, make egg bunnies. Shell hardcooked eggs: cut a slice from small end for flat base; insert carrot-slice ears into cuts made in large end of egg; fasten olive eyes, mouth, and chive whiskers with toothpick. DV. H. E. VanDerVeen, county veterinarian, reports that the practicing veterinarians are reporting that many farmers are neglecting to have their calves vaccinated and many are missing the vaccinating through carelessness in not keeping records of calves so that they do not miss vaccinating all calves. This is a very serious matter. Vaccination has been our greatest weapon in reducing and controlling brucellosis -- without it brucellosis will again become rampant and out of control. Vaccination of calves has become so important in the eradication and control of brucellosis that now many "states will not permit cattle of any age to be shipped^into their states without having been calfhood vaccinated at the proper age. This official age in most states is 4 to 8 months of age. However, on research it has been determined that calves vaccinated at 5 to 6 months have just as much resistance to brucellosis infection as calves vaccinated at 7 and 8 months of age. Therefore, vaccinating calves at 5 and 6 months of age is recommended. KM NEWS .Thursday, March 26, 1959 SUPPORT LEVEL PLACES CEILING FOR BEAN PRICES ISSUED CHARTER Secretary of State Charles F.

Stratton approved Senate Bill 104 which authorizes county boards of supervisors to increase the salary of highway commissioners in road districts, townships and township districts having a population of 5,000 or less to a minimum of $10 and not more than $16 per diem. Where the population exceeds .>.000. the increase is not less than S10 nor more than $20 per diem. In townships of more than 100,000. which have added 75 of more square miles by annexation, the maximum is $24. The bill becomes a law immediately. PUBLIC AID Gov. William G. Stratton said that continued high unemployment in many industrial areas, plus seasonal factors, resulted in an increase in the number of persons receiving public aid in January. A report to the governor from Peter W. Cahill. executive secretary of the Illinois Public Aid Commission. showed that caseloads of the five public assistance programs rose by 15.227 recipients in January, 1959, to a total of 382,287 persons. Soybean prices have been holding around the -support level, less the costs of storage in commercial warehouses. This reflects the fact that more than half of the beans placed under price support have been stored in warehouses rather than on farms. At mid - February, government figures that a total of 137 million bushels of 1958 crop soybeans had -been placed under price support. Of this amount, 73 million bushels were under loan in warehouses, 51 million were under loan on farms and 13 million were under purchase agreements. According^ to government estimates, tiie supply of beans available on Feb. 1 for crushing and export totaled 378 million bushels. This was 81 million more than one year before. During the first four months of this marketing year, October through January, exports and crushings took 186 million bushels,» or 23 million more than one year before. To put it another way, rate of disappearance has increased by about lVz million bushels a week. If this same increase holds for the rest of the year, the carryover next fall apparently will be 50 to 60 million bushels. That would compare with 21 million bushels last fall, the previous record high. (A recent USD A estimate of the carryover was much higher--90 million bushels). Since the amount of beans under price support is well vver t>he expected carryover, many, beans now under price support will be used before Oct. 1. They may not be needed, however, until after May 31, when the CCC takes delivery on beans now under price support. The supply of beans not under price support, or needed for seed, on Feb. 1 apparently was around 240 million bushels. This is about twice as much as was crushed arid exported in the February-May period last year. READ THE WANT ADS I Do not take life too seriously i you'll never get out of it alive anyway.

After that date buyers can obtain beans from the CCC at current market prices, but not less than the price support level plus 1% cents a month. The price support level plus 1 cents a month will tend to become a price ceiling, since each sale by CCC tends to establish a market price. The soybean is really two products in one package. These products are (1) a high protein feed for poultry and livestock and (2) a food fat used in cooking and at the table. The market for the protein feed is increasing, but it may meet more competition from cottonseed meal next year. The soybean oil jnust sell in U.S. and world markets in competition with many fats and oils, including butter, lard, cottonseed oil, coconut oil, tallow, peanut oil, olive oil, sesame oil, etc. ' I . » The price support level for- 1959 crop soybeans will be4 $1.85 a bushel, 24 cents less than for the 1958 crop.
