JACOB JUSTEN -- SECURE MOO MILK CONTRACTS «... *.• McHENRY, ILL When you get the McHenry ice cream, manufactured under perfect sanitary conditions, you are sure of quality. It is carbonated and made up from pure foods. Our factory is always open to inspection Visitors Welcome ONTI, PROP. the milk of the Chicago lone will be marketed co-operatively as the result of the success of the' marketing plan devised by the Farm Bureau committee of nine, according to officials, who this morning: announced their success in reaching the minimum quota of 6,000 signed contracts. Meetings were held Thursday night in about half the locals in the district and resulted in signing several hundred additional contracts, which put the movement over the top. The minimum of 6,000 signers was required by September 1 in order to make the contracts effective. Workers declare that the success of their campaign puts a new era in the business and indicates that before very long harmony will reign within most organizations in this section. This is indicated, they say, because of the fact that the campaign succeeded despite the bitter prejudices of some factions and the vigorous opposition from some milk dealers. The counties affected are: Winnebago, Boone, McHenry, Lake, Ogle, DeKalb, Kane, Cook, DuPage, Whiteside Lee, Kendall, Will and Kankakee in Illinois; Waukesha, Green, Rock, Walworth, Racine and Kenosha in Winconsin; Lake, Porter, LaPorte, Jasper, Starke, Fulton and Wabash in Indiana. Official announment that the minimum quota had been secured was made by the committee of nine last Friday on the strength of last minute returns from all over the district. The accurate count will probably not be known for a week, officials stated. Practically all contracts have been allowed to remain in the hands of local and county committeemen. A preliminary tabulation of estimates made by workers showed approximately 6,500 sighed up, about half of which were in the six Wiscon sin counties. Rock county alone reported more than 1,000. Without a single exception, every producer delivering milk to Beloit signed--approximately 245. At Elkhorn, a place never organized before, 300 out of 353 patrons of the leading dairy were, signed. Only three men still remained outside at Grayslake last week. In Winnebago county, where the Rockford, Pecatonica, Seward and Durand locals are all heavy producers, only about 100 dairymen were reported not signed. In Green county, where the marketing contract cheese pool will operate, more than 800 had signed, with the campaign not yet complete, working against the close time limit. At Monroe, several hundred contracts had been signed up to early last week. At Monticello, 55 out of 58 had signed. New Glarus reports more than 95 per cent. A number of smaller milk locals had reached 100 per cent several days before the close of the drive. Wisconsin men were not able to thoroly cover Waukesha, Racine and Kenosha. 1 Indiana has signed its quota, According to indications. Porter county, where the banks and the Valparaiso chamber of commerce took a hand, signed a large majority of its five hundred producers. Even Lake county, a center of disgruntled opposition, signed more than 100. The St. John local closed with nearly 100 per cent. The campaign in the inner tier of counties, where the only opposition was encountered, brought results beyond expectations, officials declare. Because of the short tfme limit, the committee of nine devoted its chief attention to other parts of the territory where quickest results could be obtained. . Despite this neglect of the inner section, more than 2,500 contracts were signed in Illinois, {^cording to the estimates from county chairmen. Lake, McHenry and Kane signed from 30 to 450 each. DuPage and Cook signed less. Only one community in Cook was canvassed; this was merely surface scratching that yielded the contracts of half the producers at Wheeling. Further organization activity will be conducted on an intensive scale in all the near-in counties. An opportunity to sign will be given everyone in the inner counties before the elections are held for the nine members of the operations committee. A new organization policy has been announced by A. C. Stoxen, director of the campaign activity. Efforts will be concentrated upon various plants and receiving stations. The aim is to secure as nearly a 100 per cent sign-up as possible at each plant in order to bring the service charge plan into effect at an early date. The plan only in effect at Beloit at the present time and marketing company officials want to enforce the service charge elsewhere at once. Under terms of the service charge plan, milk buyers pay a premium for the guar an teed delivery of the quantity of milk necessary to. All their require' ments. *>' LAST MOTOR BOAT RACES * MCHENRY'S m JOreOTAWSDttlft V-/' THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 PARAMOUNT NIGHT Ethel Clayton --IN-- xit the Vamp With • Cast Including Theodore Roberts--T.

Reverting to the high school situation. One hears of those who are (willing to wager that a start on the proposed building will not "be made I this fall. Others are hopeful that | matters will so shape themselves that some work can and will be done late this year. The school situation here is no different than is found in many other localities. We are told that temposchool quarters are quite common all over the state of Illinois, not excepting the city of Chicago. Students and patrons must therefore make the best of existing conditions. We fully realize that the school faculty and students aire handicapped thru the present arrangement, but it is the best that could be done under the existing conditions. Let us hope that the patience of the teachers and scholars will be rewarded by the erection of one of the finest and best equipped school buildings to be found anywhere in a town the size of McHenry.

THERE was such a demand for ARCOLA, the wonderful new hotwater heating-system that there weren't enough ARCOLAS to supply it. Many of our own customers had to wait. This Fall it looks like another grand rush. But just now, we have ARCOLAS on hand and we have more time to install them. So our advice is Save money on ARCOLA now (These figures, though rough, will show how reasonably ARCOLA can be completely installed -- despite the fact it pays for itself in the fuel it saves.) 3-Rooms Arcola with 2 radlMMs |1H 4-Rooms Arcola with 3 radiators S 280 5-Rooms Arcola with 4 radiators $ ttt 6-Rooms Arcola with 5 radiatovs |,SN Phone or call and we'll gladly give you the exact cost of putting ARCOLA in your ham*--but, for your own good, do it now before the Fall rush.

The "Fore" gave one of the most remarkable exhibitions in speed ever witnessed outside of the deep lakes and other deep waterways.. In the last race this giant of the waters, capable of making seventy*two miles an horn-, left about three minutes after the other speed boats had started and in spite of this handicap easily led the way. While not entered in the race, loud cheering followed its finish over the line. This is the craft which made such a favorable impression during the motor boat races as held in connection with the Pageant of Progress in Chicago recently. The craft made the five mile course in about four minutes. Suroly som* peed for these waters.

Just how much time this will require is not known, but those who have been so anxiously awaiting the real start on the new building sincerely hope that it will not be long.
