HOLD COUNTY FUND DRIVE FOR CHILDREN'S HOME A county-wide drive to raise funds for the children's home at Woodstock is announced this week by the director of promotion, Rev. William Bruce, who adds that this year's theme is "Because of YOU their life has a- future." For nearly seventy-five years the home has ministered to the needs of dependent boys and girls, regardless of religion or creed. Over 3,000 children have come and gone through the home in its years in Woodstock, several hundred of this jjumber from McHenry county. The home gives placement preference to county children, and presently, about one-fifth of the forty boys and girls are from the county. A b o u t o n e - t h i r d of t h e home's operational costs are derived from child-care sources. This means that the other two-thirds must be raised from friends and groups interested in the welfare of unfortunate boys and girls. Recently, a director of casework services was added to the staff in order to more effectively deal with the emotional and personality needs of the children. A foster home program to augment present services is envisioned in the future. The public is invited to visit the home and bring their contributions or to mail them to the Woodstock Children's home, Woodstock, IJ1. THANKSGIVING DAY RITE Zion Lutheran church will observe Thanksgiving Day with a service of thanks on Thursday, Nov. 24, at 9 a.m. More details on this and other local church services for that day will appear in next week's issue. WINTER GRAZING NOT PERMITTED ON RESERVE AREA Even though the growing season is over, land in the conservation reserve may not be used for grazing so long as the land retirement contract remains in effect Walter E. Austin, of the McHenry county ASC committee, rem i n d e d farmers. Mr. Austin commented that some people consider dormant grass of questionable value and for this reason might misuse the reserve area. F o r c o n s e r v a t i o n r e s e r v e contracts which expire in 1960, the prohibition on grazing continues until Dec. 31, Mr. Austin said. For contracts with additional years to run, the farmer is obligated to withhold the land from crops or grazing and to refrain from breaking out new land until the contract expires. Annual payments - for 1960 are now being completed for those producers whose farms are considered in compliance with the provision of their contracts. Violations occurring between now and Jan. 1, 1961, could require the annual payment be refunded... There are 121 contracts in ' McHenry county in: 1960 covering a tqtal of 7,486.8 acres of cropland. PERSONALS Mr. and Mrs. Edward Carson and son of Santa Ana, Calif., were called home because of the death of her mother, Mrs. Katherine Thennes. Loren Miller of Ogden, Utah, visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Miller, and other relatives and friends here last weekend, enroute home from a business trip to Dayton, Ohio. HOME OWNERS PONDER QUESTION OF LEAF BURNING "To burn or not to burn," muses Mr. Average Home Owner as he balefully stares at autumn's leaves smothering his well-tended lawn. William .Nelson, University of Illinois landscape specialist, -offers this advice: Rake and burn leaves if any plants are afflicted with disease; otherwise the disease will overwinter in the ground or leaves. Check for black spot on roses, any leaf spot on trees and shrubs and other diseases. If no diseases are lurking around, leaves make a satisfactory mulch for winter. Use them for mulching flower beds, rpses, evergreens and other plants. However, "remove them next spring, as they are dense and will keep out air and moisture during the growing season. Even if leaves are not needed for mulching, rake them anyway.

A report by the Illinois Department of Public Health on 1950-1960 population data says that 15 of the 102 counties of the state contain 7,691,068 persons. The remaining 2,314,887 persons are in the other 87 counties. Net population of Illinois for the ten-year period is 10,003,- 955 in I960 compared with 8,- 712,176 in 1950, a gain of 14.9 per cent in. the decade. Eight major cities are the centers of the metropolitan areas. They are Chicago, Champaign, Decatur, East St. Louis, Peoria, Rockford, Rock Island and Springfield. Three of these areas gained less than the natural increase of births over deaths. Springfield registered -2,369, Rock Island -4,688 and Peoria -7,076 in migration although they gained in population. The other five metropolitan areas recorded migration gains during the last decade as follows: Chicago, 212,766; Rockford, 23,274; East St. Louis, 19,449; Champaign, 5,809; Decatur, 2,651. Areas outside of the eight metropolitan centers showed a migration loss of 180,613. The migration gain for the entire state during this decade was 69,740. Excess of births over deaths for the state was 1,224,039 during the 10-year period. Figures used by the department are preliminary and not official but are believed to be accurate enough to offset any changes in estimates. MORE THAN ONE SUCCESS FORMULA IN HOG PRODUCTION All successful hog producers do not follow the same system. That fact was clearly evident on the hog farms visited on farm management tours5 in Illinois during the late summer. Here are the most important ideas picked up from the tours as listed by D. F. Wilken, University of Illinois agricultural economist: 1. High-profit farms have high corn yields and a high number of pigs per litter. Highest profit farms have these things pi (is large numbers of livestock and low operating costs. 2. Most successful hog producers select a particular hograising program, get it down to a system and stay with it. 3. Farmers visited on the tour could spot trouble before it became , serious. They kept up-to-date records and made a habit of doing chores on time. Wide Variations in hog production systems are likely to continue, Wilken says. Each farm may differ in such things as soil type.
