It was with much joy and satisfaction we heard the report from Linn P. Loslibaugh, "chairman of our* finance committee, that the formal transfer from the former owner of the house and property which we have occupied for nearly seven years, to the Gospel Church, was effected on Thursday evening, Feb. 28. For the first time, therefore, we met in this building as our own, last Sunday, March 2. This transaction includes also the two adjoining vacant lota. The necessary funds to close this deal were raised within six weeks. The next thing fpr us to db now is to take care 6f the mortgage on the property, before a building program can be launched, which we hope can be realized in the near future. We are very grateful to God for the way He has provided and guided in these matters. And we do appreciate the splendid way members and friends have co-operated in this important venture. The next Youth for Christ Rally in McHenry county will be held next Saturday night, March 8, at 7:45 at the Woodstock Opera House. The Rev. Mr. Hill of Winona Lake, Ind., will be the guest speaker. Next Sunday, March 9, a male quartette from Trinity seminary in Chicago will sing at the morning service.

The new package emphasises meat, since for-the past two and a half months there have been no meat rations for Israelis. The thirteen and a half pounds of food in the Passover parcel include six and a half potfhds of various meats. Matsohs, now in sufficient supply in Israel, has been omitted from the package, which is priced at $12. Delivery for Passover is free of any ration or duty charges to friends, relatives and other recipients anywhere In Israel. Iaformatfem tm the Passover package, as well as five other CARE packages for Israel and parcels for other countries may be obtained at any local CARE outlet in banks and stores, and ordifi may be placed there or directly with CARE in Chic«#e^*t 189 West Madison street. It has been estimated that there are 62,200,000 drivers in the U.S. Although Illinois ranks fourth behind New York, California and Texas in driver and vehicle registration, the state has more street and road mileage than any of the three. By W. H. Tammens When everybody milks the government somebody has to pay for the hay the cow eats. By the way, this cow wouldn't win. any D.H.I.- A. honors. With the new income tax rates, everybody is beginning to find out who is paying for the cow's hay. It might be a good idea for everyone to take a copy of their income tax return with them when they go to vote. Then they could take a good look at it just before going into the voting booth so they will be good and mad when they mark their ballot. I don't know of a better way to get your income tax bill to-be lower later. ' Of course you can't blame the poor congressmen altogether with all kindb of pressure groups wanting more all the time. I understand the American Farm Bureau request for less money to the farmer from government funds was so unusual and Congress was so amazed they were thinking of holding an investigation. Your Congressmen try to carry out your wishes and apparently your wishes have been for "more from the government" so what are the poor guys to do. They want to get elected again don't they? Are you planning to grow barley this year? For malting barley, grow Oderbrucker or Kindred. For feed barley, grow Moore. It stands up much better and responds best to fertilization. Blackhawk soybeans are the best for this area. If you want hullless oats, grow Clinton and hull them. You will have much more oats than you will if you grew J a m e s h u l l - l e s s . T h e s e w e r e some of the remarks of W. O. Scott, U. of 1. agronomist, last week when he was in the county. He said white oats grow in the north, yellow oats grow in the corn belt, and red oats grow in the southwest. We should -elect our oats varieties accoiding to their natural habitat. In answer to the question of when, to sow grass seed like timothy and brome he said they naturally seed themselves in the fall and coin*? up to go into a dormant stage over winter so we should sow them accordingly whenever we can. Legumes stand into the winter and1 pop out onto the frown ground by freezing and thawing so the natural time to aow Ota is in early spring or on the hwt These are a few good guide* in seeding. Women sure are dnmb when it comes to mechanics. That's why I got such a kick out of the story about the woman who just had, a new phone installed. She called the phone company and told them her cord was too long and would they please pull it through till she hollered whoa! There have been a number of people ask about coated seed in legumes. This is a coating of "arasau" a mercuric compound. They claim better stand but make no claims for Increased yields. A five-year experiment on stand of alfalfa showed 2% pounds of seed per acre yielded an average of 4,0S0 pounds of dry matter per acre while 15 pounds of seed yielded only 4.560 pounds dry matter. Fifty pounds of seed per acre yielded only 4.5&0 pounds dry matter. Only a small portion of the seed that sprouts actually forms, a producing crown. Do oats varieties run out? The U. of I. has run a continuous test on the old "60 day" variety since > 1905, using seed from each preceding year's plot. 1905 to 1915 the yield averaged 57.9 bushels per acre; 1916 to 1925--54.1 bu.; 26 to 35--64.0 bu.; 36 to 45--«*8 bu.; 45 to 51--55.9 bu. Oats do not run out genetically, they just get mixed up and the undesirable genes of each variety express themseflves. Jan: 1, 1952, cattle numbers on: Illinois farms were 8 percent over 1951, hog numbers were li percent and sheep were up 20 percent Horses and mules decreased 18 percent. I thought so. Chickens were up 1 percent and turkeys were up 20 percent. Beef cows were up 19 percent,, beef heifers were up 26 percent.; over the 1941-1950 average. Dairy: cows were 5 percent below laat year. Hogs were 13 percent over the ten year average. In McHenry county, 114 hogs were tested for bangs in January, 1952, and no reactors t were found according to reports of all laboratories doing testing in the state. Many counties were not so fortunate. Boone county had four reactors out of fifty-one tested. Krillum, a synthetic resin, acta as a glue when put on soil and hold soil particles together. One pound of it has the same effect in improving the tilth as 260 pounds* of peat moss or 500 pounds of commercial compost. Somebody figured out that a 220 pound butterfat cow pays you< 26 cents per hour for your labor, a 300 pound cow 76 cents, a 500 pound cow $2.08 per hour. What are you, slave or master of your herd?

A good part of the time, theyV® running errands, taking children to school, taking women to stores, taking men to work, taking family and friends to clubs and social function!. It doesn't call for a very great output of horsepower for duties like these. But there are times when you want a car that can do vastly more, and these are the times when you'll want what this year's ROADMASTER has to offer. Beneath its proud hood, there's a Fireball 8 Engine--a valve-in-head that can let loose 170 lively horsepower when needed. , And -- alongside this engine -- there's also an Airpower carburetor which thriftily feeds fuel and air through two smaller*than*usual barrels, for normal driving--which means that you now use less gas at 40 than you'd formerly use at 30. But there are two barrels in reserve--waiting, for you to call them into action -- and they let loose a soaring rush of power that sinks your shoulders back into the seat cushion, swoops you past a truck--out of a tight spot--up a hill •-gets your speedometer needle to registering added miles more than twice as fast as your watch can tick off the seconds. IW is an experience you certainly should know firsthand. Ybu should also know how Butck's Power Steering3" provides a helping hand in slowmotion maneuvers -- lets you keep the "feel" of the car in straightaway driving. And just for good measure, thfs *52 ROADMASTER also has the biggest brakes of any postwar Buick -the greatest trunk space since spare tires moved off the front fenders-- a warning light that glows when the parking brake is set -- and to top it all, the smartest interior fabrics that Buick has ever offered.
