According to these men, who are in a position to know, many new homes will be constructed along our river between now and the opening of another season. Scores of lots have been sold along our river this year which, up to this time, ,are without buildings. ^ "But just watch the houses spring up be ber of same don't delay any but send in your membership dfll^si $10.00 at once.

McHenry is without a pulmotor and always has been and it seems to us that there is a no more opportune time than qow for the people of this community to get busy and see that such a machine is purchased for our section of Fox river. McHenry should do her part in seeing that such ja machine is purchased as well as j those "residing- along the river and lakes and if everyone will give the co-operation which it consideration.

During the past several ifionths he has been sue- i cessful in the sale of a dozen or more! "We are going to cover every dairying center in the three states," said F. H.

Mrs. Wheeler, we are. told, has been approached by'several realty men regarding the sale of the property, but thus far no deal has been put over, altho such an occurrence is not at All improbable. Looking over the entire situation it looks to us as if the real estate men of the community are correct in predicting that next year will see more real estate changes than has the past. ing the adoption of recommendations passed at the protest meeting here a week agjo.

I Failure of Bowman company representatives to appear at the Dundee conference resulted in (the appointment of a committee to meet with the milk buyers "at their Chicago offices, i They have asked for a meeting to be held en Thursday. ! "The new committee was appointed," it was explained by Mr. Reese, "to see* what can be done to compel dairymen to stand by their ^contract with the marketing company. Our contract is as binding as any contract that was ever written. jWe want the milk buyers to recognise i the contracts." If the Bowman company as well as [other big dealers, it was peinted out, j recognize the contracts, farmers who Jane Davis, a three-year-old Chi- have dropped from the ranks of orcago child, whose parents were stay-1 ganized dairymen will find consider » A i.1 f\ .* - f_ _1 t_ _ X *5* T _ 1_ _ ' t_ 1 _ A# fkail CHILD DROWNS AT FOX LAKE Wofaeui Pulmotor Fails In tio Save Child's Life ' ing at the Danish club at .Pox Lake, lost her life by drowning when the little tol fell from a pier at that point on Tuesday morning of this week. Words are inadequate to express the inefficiency and helplessness wjth which the residents of this Fox river district are confronted on account of the lack of preventative and corrective methods for the safety ef persons while in the water.

The contracts are for one year, expiring January 1, 1922. To surrender memberships, t however, dairymen are required to file notice of their intention not later than December 1. ' .
