From The Farm YOUR FOOD SUPPLY Farmers and ranchers supply each American person with 1,500 pounds of food in a single year. These total goods and services are valued at $130 billion. The farmer receives only $50 billion. The millions of city people who provide the services to move raw product from the market to your food basket collect $80 billion for their services. In a single year, farmers supply you the American housewife, with about 11 million sheep and lambs, 39 million beef cattle and calves, 94 million hogs, 120 million turkeys, 3 billion pounds of milk and millions of pounds of fruits and vegetables. This much farm output requires some 1.3 billion acres of land, 3.3 million farmers, 1 million farm workers and 2 million sup pliers. CALIBRATE PLANTER Taking time to calibrate your planter before planting soybeans may save you time, trouble and money spent on replanting. Most farmers overplant soybeans as insurance against poor germination, dry weather, or crusting caused by a hard rain after planting. But even the best planning won't help if you haven't carefully -Calibrated your planter to deliver the desired planting rate. Shoot, for a harvest population of 8 to 10 plants per foot of row in 40-inch rows, or 6 to 8 plants per foot in 30-inch rows. Most farmers normally plant about 10 percent more than this rate to help offset losses from rotary hoeing, cultivation and poor ger- mination-particularly a problem in 1973. -After you have determined the planting rate, select the correct gear setting for your planter. f Consult your operator's manual to find this setting. -Then check the seeding rate by pulling your planter at planting speed on a roadway or barnlot and again under actual field conditions. SORGHUM-SUDAN Sorghum-sudan hybrids will The Law Serves You The Lady's Lamp Is Out But Immigration Goes On The Russians are coming- someday, maybe-but the Filipinos, Latin Americans, and Italians and others are coming now, by the many thousands. According to the Illinois State Bar as§p^iation, immigration quotas for the Western Hemisphere (the Eastern Hemisphere is treated separately) permit 120,000 persons to come to the United States each year and most of them come from Mexico and South American countries. So great is the clamor for entry that the quota is already filled for 1973 and for most, if not all, of 1974. The waiting line is a year-and-one-half long. Canada is included in the Western Hemisphere quota but immigration from that country is a dribble compared to the flow of newcomers from South America. The Eastern Hemisphere - all countries outside of North and South America (including Russia and Red China) - has a quota of its own of 170,000 an nually. There is a "preference system" which gives priority to certain applicants and a limit of 20,000 from any one country. The two countries - and only two - who regularly send the 20,000 maximum to these shores are the Philippines and Italy and, on the preference scale, there is a backlog of skilled and unskilled workers, from those countries who would like to come. The present immigration quotas are relatively new, having been established by Congress with passage of the Immigration Act of October, 1965. The law represented a major departure from the philosophy represented by the inscription on the Statue of Liberty: "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses...I lift my Lamp beside the golden door." Instead of a "golden door," U.S. immigration policy now is provide additional feed for dairymen who face a possible shortage of legume forages for their herds this summer. Seedings started about May 20 will provide good grazing during the summer. One acre of well managed sorghum-sudan hybrids can provide pasture forage for three to five cows during the grazing season. As early as possible, plant enough sorghum-sudan to provide two weeks of pasture. Plant the remaining acreage you'll need about two to three weeks later. NOT TOO LATE Do you have a positive identification of each dairy heifer calf that was born last fall and winter? There is still time to use a sketch, snapshot, tatoo, eartag or neck chain to identify each calf before you "forget who's who" during the summer. Record the calf's date of birth and the identification numbers Of both the sire and dam for future reference. You'll want this information when you select replacement heifers for your herd. REPLACING SMV EMBLEMS You're only half safe unless you replace Slow-Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem centers every two years.

Semi-permanent | false eyelashes may give your eyes the best batting average on the block, but there are some drawbacks you should know about, before you dash to your local beauty salon. The lashes, which are individually applied for that coveted natural look, are ex pensive, probably will not last as long as implied, and can cause medical problems. If hypoallergenic surgical ad hesive is used to attach the lashes (they're glued directly to one's own eyelashes, eliminating the eyelid band), there shouldn't be any problem. Sometimes, however, epoxy glue is used because it holds better -- and epoxy glue is too strong and dangerous for the eye area. The danger is that it can easily get onto the surrounding skin, and even into the eye. Nor are the lashes as perma- daylight visibility, fade and last an average of only two years. You should replace your SMV emblem's orange fluorescent center with an easy-to-apply triangle overlay, or replace the entire SMV emblem.

Prior to adoption of the 1965 act, there was no quota - meaning no limit - on im migration from Western Hemisphere countries. One reason for the adoption of the quota was the South American population explosion which posed a threat to the U.S. labor market and economy if im migration was allowed to continue unchecked. Also, the preference system, as it applies to the Eastern Hemisphere, allows for only a certain number - 34,000 - who may qualify for entry in the classifications for professional people and for skilled and unskilled workers. To come to the U.S. under the quotas, immigrants from Eastern Hemisphere countries must qualify under one of the following preferences: 1 - Unmarried sons and daughters of a U.S. citizen. 2 - Spouses and unmarried sons and daughters of aliens ad mitted for permanent residence. 3 - Professional persons or those with ex ceptional skills in the sciences or arts. 4 - Married sons and daughters of U.S. citizens. 5 - Brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens. 6 - Skilled or unskilled workers in short supply. 7 - Refugees from racial, religious or political persecution. However, the immigration quotas tell only part of the story. Many immigrants - some 90,000 of them for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1971 - are able to enter as non-quota immigrants, meaning they are not counted. Most of these are husbands and wives of citizens or immigrants and children of citizens under age 21. In the year ended June 30, 1971, 370,478 aliens were granted lawful permanent residence in this country. CROSSWORD By A. C.

And each time they fall out, they have to be replaced, at additional cost. Also, they may be stiffer or longer than natural lashes and will cause even more irritation if they fall into the eye. If you wear contact lens, the new lashes are definitely not recommended. Better birth control ... A re cent study shows the double-coil intrauterine birth control device (IUD) more effective than the sequential oral contraceptives (the pill) in preventing pregnan cy. The failure rate among the 27,712 women using the IUD for a total of more than 500,000 men strual periods, was only 0.8 per cent, compared with 1.4 percent for the pill. In the study, conduc ted by Archibald F. Caraway, M.D., of the Florida Bureau of Maternal Health and Family Plan ning, the expulsion rate was 7.5 percent and the removal rate only 3.7 percent. Menstrual cramps . . . Aspirin, or other simple painkillers, and normal activity are the best treat ments for teenagers suffering from menstrual cramps, says the American Academy of Pediatrics. Warning against excessive restric tion of activity, the Academy says it's unhealthy and "can actually make the pain worse." Menstrual pain occurs only after ovulation (if ovulation does not take place during a cycle, the next period will be painless). If the pain is incapacitating, hor mone therapy can be used to suppress ovulaton. But this treat ment is not recommended for every case and should only be used after consulting with a gyne cologist experienced in caring for adolescents. "Menstrual cramps are com mon in teenagers," says the Aca demy. They are not a sign of ill health or disease of the reproduc tive organs.
