$*£Sc04c6 SCOUT PL/U*o The leaders and service members met recently at the Kachina Neighborhood meeting to discuss events and plana for the current Scouting now well under way. Mary Cope, Neighborhood rman, presented troop license cards to Junior leaders, Linda Simon, Coleman, Sandi Martin Lois Aubuchon. These leaders spent an overnight campout at Chapman Hills a few weeks ago to learn and practice camp skills to be able to help their Scouts on camping tri£s and to earn their troop camp license. Karen Baker and her co- chairmen, Linda Simon and Mary Lou Cope, reported that the Scout mothers' tag day was very successful despite the rain and cold of the day. The Scouts and leaders of Wonder Lake are very grateful to their generous moms for their dependable help and cooperation. The Scout year got off to a bang-up start recently when over 200 Scouts, leaders and moms boarded buses and took off for a camp-out day at Chapman Hills Girl Scout camp in Wisconsin. The Scouts spent the day practicing outdoor skills and enjoyed hot chocolate made over campfires with their meal. Cadettes and older Junior Scouts helped the younger Scouts and Brownies discover the charm and appeal of the beautiful campsite in the Kettle Moraine area of Wisconsin. Brownie Troop 418 held in­ vestiture ceremony recently and invited their moms to share this lovely event with them. New Brownies invested into the troop were Mary Bazan, Brenda Berlin, Mary Oleszc- zak, Kathy Frechette, Kristy Frechette, Cheryl Kinzie, Beth Lance, Therese Seaver, Kelli Williams, Laura Corso and Lisa Karpowich. Troop Leaders Betty Mamey and Jan Jensen welcomed Pat Frechette into the troop as a new assistant leader, and Betty Smidt and Muriel Oleszczak as committee mothers. Following investiture, the Brownies served refresh­ ments to their moms. Several troops have been busy enjoying as much of the autumn weather as possible. Cadette Troop 421, with Leaders Janet Bell and Margaret Morrissey and guest, Marge Bright, spent a weekend camping trip at Chapman Hills in October. Junior Troop 435 ventured on a bike hike from Wonder Lake through Bull Valley to Crystal Lake and back. The Scouts and their leaders, Lucy Coleman and Marge Bright, were astonished to discover they have chalked up thirty-five miles 'round trip. Scouts completing the trip on bike with their leaders were Julie Huff, Patty Coleman, Marilyn Lehr, Denise Dorris, Donna Berlin, LaDonna Walker, Krista Kaefer and Rose R obi son. Troop com­ mittee mothers, Evelyn Raske and Rosemary Walker rode shotgun in the emergency car providing safety and moral support for the bikers. A brand new Junior troop in Wonder Lake headed by Lois Aubuchon and Sandi Martin celebrated with a cook-out at the beach. TROOP 420-435 The Junior Scouts of Troops 420 and 435 and the Cadette Scouts of Troop 421 of Wonder Lake will present a "Let's Go Camping" program night Wednesday, Nov. 15, at 7:30 p.m. in the Harrison school cafeteria. The program is being presented for all Junior and Cadette Scouts of Wonder Lake and their parents. Since camping is becoming such a popular and large part of the Junior and Cadette Scouting program in Wwider Lake, the leaders will attempt to acquaint all Scouts and their parents with the progressive levels of camping available through the council, Day, Troop, Core and Resident Camping. The program will consist of a film strip on troop camping and colored slides on Camp Pokonokah (resident camp). District Advisor Mary Beth From The Farm FALL NITROGEN APPLICATIONS Corn yield studies show that fall-applied nitrogen is somewhat less effective than nitrogen applied in the spring. However, applying nitrogen in the fall can reduce field work during the critical planting season. When nitrogen is applied in the fall, losses can be held to a minimum by carefully con­ sidering soil conditions and field slopes. To minimize nitrate loss and pollution of soil Malm has been invited tocorte and explain the "campershipv and "savings plan" for Pokonokah, and to answer anjr, questions. Scouts from Wonder Lake who have attended Camp Pokonokah this past summer will participate in a question and answer panel. All Junior and Cadette Girl Scouts of Wonder Lake are invited to come (in uniform) and bring their parents. The program will begin promptly at 7:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served.

Denitrification may result when these soils become water- saturated. ON NUTRIENTS Small, yearly applications of phosphorus and potassium have shown no advantage over larger amounts applied less often. Farmers end up applying the saihe total amounts of the nutrieins, but can save on spread/ng costs by applying at three year intervals. , 5nly exception to this seems to be the alfalfa, where annual topdressing of potassium is preferred. CALCIUM-MAGNESIUM RATIOS There's little need to be concerned about the amount of magnesium in the limestone you buy. U. of I. specialists say that the calcium-magnesium balance in Illinois soils presents no special problems for field crops. There's no need to pay a nUUno: Daly: 9a m 5 30p m premium for limestone that is highter or lower in magnesium than limestone commonly available in your area. Any limestone that is finely ground and high enough in neutralizing power is acceptable.
