PAGE 14 - PLAIIFDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JULY 16, 1975 V yr Extension Comments (By George J. Young, Agriculture Extension Adviser, McHenry County) Congratulations to the Lester Kantlehner family of McHenry. Their Suffolk lamb was the grand champion ram lamb at the Ninth Illinois Spring Lamb Carcass show, held in Springfield recently. Transplant Iris - German Bearded Iris are one of the most popular garden peren­ nials in Illinois. They are easy to grow and handy. Division of rhizome clump should be done every three to five years. When transplanting or plantingciris, plant each rhizome separately. Do not bury the rhizome, but plant it so that one-third to one- half is exposed on the surface. And be sure to plant in full sun. Iris will not flower profusely if planted in shaded areas. EPA Tour - A committee of our local Livestock association is planning a tour of the EPA feedlot runoff' waste control systems on two demonstration farms in Kane County. They plan to have two speakers: Jim Frank, from the Illinois EPA to discuss the demonstration structures, and Bob Schwart from the University of Illinois Agriculture Economics Department, to discuss beef, hog and grain outlook. This tour is tentatively set for the af­ ternoon of Sept. 2. Details to follow. Herbs In Garden - The University of Illinois has tried to determine whether or not herbs repel harmful injects in vegetable gardens. After two years of testing, there does not appear to be any beneficial *»ffects when herbs are planted in close association with vegetables. The herb plants apparently did not mask the attractant effect of the specific host vegetables, nor did they repel the insects. The tests were conducted during the 1973 and 1974 growing seasons at the U of I Dixon Springs Agricultural center in southern Illinois, and the U of I Hor­ ticulture station, Downers Grove. The experiment was conducted with cabbage, snap beans, and eggplant, because these -vegetables are usually attacked by insects. Herbs used in the experiment included Hyssop, Thyme, and Catnip for the cabbage; Wormwood for the eggplant; and Rosemary, Petunia, and Marigold for snapbeans. Although biological controls are good non-chemical methods of controlling insects, the planting ot herbs among garden vegetables, at least on these crops, doesn't seem to be an effective control. Not all is lost, however^ because a garden with marigolds, petunias and herbs has an aesthetic value. Coming Extension Educational Events July 16 and 17. Hog Carcass Show.

More and more women are going back to college, say government statistics; it's estimated that there are 500,000 women who have returned to scholastic life after getting married and having a family. Many of these women have had their educations interrupted by marriage or by economic factors . . . some have never been to college at all. The reasons for going back to school are as varied as the women themselves. Dissatisfaction with the us­ ual round of housework, caring for youngsters, and W* several weeks in the refrig­ erator. The 'wine for all seasons' to have at hand is a white Rhin^-wine such as Wed­ ding Veil, soft and delic­ ious, which blends admir­ ably with anything you're serving, meat, soup, fish or eggs. Served chilled, the wine in the romantic white- veiled bottle perks up your luncheon, always depend­ ably just rigljt in jjeshpess and bouquet, ̂ e^m^wine in the house for lunch, or aperitifs or dinner marks / ' you as a thoughtful hostess.

DINNER FOR THE MEN: MAKE IT A HEARTY ONE If your conscience won't stop you, pray for cold feet. £ charity work has been cited by, some women. Others who have been working all along at a job may decide to go into new fields that require more education. Echoing Women's Liber­ ation proponents, some wo­ men feel that the years spent raising a family and caring for a home have conditioned them -'to put themselves last . . . and re­ newing their studies is one way of caring for their own needs.

Men enjoy simple, hearty food, but if there is some difference in the prepara­ tion that takes it out of the ordinary, they will approve all the more. A fine menu for a 'mostly men' dinner is spaghetti with mussels, served with a green salad, crusty bread and poached pear in wine for dessert. Match the drinks your husband makes beforehand to ^the excellence of your dinner by having the finest spirits on your bar, Wild Turkey Kentucky Bourbon for instance. Men enjoy this 'Cadillac' of Bourbons straight on-the-rocks both for its 101-proof vigor and because it is velvety smooth on the tongue. Your hus­ band's pride in you, your cooking and his home will be enhanced by his offer­ ing an eight-year old Bour­ bon to his guests. And your spaghetti and mussels din­ ner is economical enough to offset the slightly higher expense of fine whiskey. If hubby often invites his business friends home to dinner you can consider yourself a great success in your own business of home management. Spaghetti with Mussels Scrub 4 dozen mussels under cold water; re­ move and discard beards. Drain. In saucepan heat two tablespoons olive oil and saute 1 large onion chopped, and two cloves garlic, crushed. Pour in 1 can whole tomatoes, cup dry white wine, '3 cup chopped parsley, J» cup chopped green pep­ per, $ teaspoon salt. Cover and simmer 10 minutes. Steam mussels in fresh water until they open, remove from shells and add to tomato sauce. Cook five more min­ utes. Pour over spaghetti. Serves 4-6. The four-cent, five-step facial Most women like to be practical about their beau­ ty, especially in these days 3 of spiraling costs. They 3 want vproducts that are 3 kind to their budgets, but really work. And with out­ door summer living, 5 smooth and pretty skin is 3 especially important. Moisturizers are an in- 3 dispensable item in the battle against hot sun, water and dry air, but many can be super-expen­ sive. We've discovered a low-cost method to give yourself a bedtime facial that's every bit as sooth­ ing and effective as the most costly products. It's that household standby. Vaseline Petroleum Jelly, and costs only a few pen­ nies each time you use it. Here's the comfortable moisturizing technique, in five simple steps: 1. Warm a tablespoon of Vaseline Petroleum Jelly 3 in an egg poacher, or try 3 resting it over a bowl of very hot water. Heat a 3 small towel at the same § time, by running it under warm water and wringing = it out. 2. While the petroleum jelly warms, cleanse the a skin thoroughly. Every last smidgeon of makeup and grime should be removed from the face and throat. 3. Apply the comfort- 3 ably warm petroleum jelly, smoothing it in with light, upward strokes all over few moments. Ten or fif­ teen minutes allows the petroleum jelly to do its moisturizing job. 5. Remove the towel, and tissue off any excess petroleum jelly. The sheer coating of lubricant that remains will provide an overnight moisture barrier, that works while you sleep to reduce evaporation. Come morning, your skin will be moist, smooth, and definitely in the rose petal sweepstakes. The number of times per week you give yourself a Vaseline facial will depend on your type of skin. If it's very dry, better treat your­ self nearly every night for a week. Then whenever your skin seems to need it - -- usually N<yie to three times weekly. Naturally, skin that re­ tains its fair share of mois­ ture develops age lines and wrinkles much more slow­ ly. A woman shouldn't your face. %have to fib about her age 4. Bury the face in the nowadays -- her skin hot towel and relax for a- should do it for her.
