Fiore, well take you up on it and join you J J "" ~ I V | This past week has kept Mr. and Mrs. Anton Lennert busy as little beavers. Decorating their house inside and painting outside has. proved quite a job! But, a big help to them was their grandson, Joe BUri, who can really make sparks fly around a paint brush. Helping this weekend also were their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. BUri, and their other grandchildren,,. Geo., Jr., and Jackie Burt. Mrs. Theresa Schlitt was also one of the ladies from the former first aid organization who donated money toward a gift for the Michels twins.

It involves not only you, but anywhere from one to a dozen or more other drivers--those going the same direction, coming from the opposite direction and all cross traffic. A properly executed left turn involves four separate steps, as A big family gathering was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Fiore Sunday afternoon.

McHENRY/ ILLINOIS McGEE'S WE GIVE GOLD BOND STAMPS FAJM If you drive your car to and from your job, you should be actively interested in some surprising facts revealed by a leading' insurance company in its annual survey of auto accidents.

Travel is heaviest at two and Mrs. LeRoy Morck, and their distinct times during an average Timothy. day: from 7 to 10 a.m., when America goes to work, and from 4 to 7 p.m., when we return home.

Tammrat McHenry county Farm Bureau will be one of thirty-two counties in Illinois in which a comprehensive study will be made of the financial structure and functions. There is need for uniformity in activities to determine whether a raise in dues the state over is necessary.^ Some counties are spending all the money taken in ig dues on their educational and service programs while other counties are faced withi sizable surpluses and others experience losses. Of course, it would he hard to convince counties with surpluses they should go along with a raise in dues. In McHenry county, where we pretty well spend our incprne each year on our 4-H, riiral youth, and adult program, we find a lot of farmers want and expect a raise In dues because our program apparently is felt' worthwhile. In counties where there is a s u r p l u s p r o b l e m f a r m e r s a r e hardly aware that there is a Farm Bureau in the county because no aggressive program is carried orw Logically, it would be hard to get a raise in dues in those counties from a monies-worth standpoint. 1 Each year field days are held by the College of Agriculture on the experiment fields located around over the state. A lot can be learned at these meetings. The closest one here is at Joliet and the meeting will be held July 11. Don Smith, our Farm Bureau- Farm Management fieldman, is returning preliminary analysis to cooperators and he, says, "Without exception feed costs, power and machinery costs and labo* costs are above 1950. Believe it or not, dairy is beginning to shin again on return above feed cost. Dairy returned $193 in 1951 for each $100 worth of feed fed ais compared to a state average of $173 for the last eighteen years. Poultry was $139 as compared to $171 for the 18 year average', hogs $121 compared to $149, feeder cattle $125 compared to $127 and native sheep $122 as compared to $126. Guess the excuse for selling the cows to get out of work is no I longer an economic one. Now you can go ahead with those, dairy* j barn improvements and milking ' method improvements. It seems • ironical that the job that has been the most daily and mose monotoj nous has had the least improvement in the last twenty years. The old cow is making you , money. Take that dime you have ! been having her stand on and I sj»end it on giving her more' room I to give milk. While you are at it give yourself a break, too. Start plans on making milk handling easier. Farm girls of today are good looking, too. We don't have to ,look longingly at the city girls any more. A case in point is one of our good 4-H members from Alden, Barbara DeHaan, who is a Harvard Milk Day queen candidate. Harvard Milk Day has done a lot to glamourize the farm girls as well poised, graceful and good looking. A letter from George Moritz at Empire, Colo., who used to raise good Holsteins out west of Woodstock, says he is 42 miles west <>f Denver on Route 40 and 6, 8,200 feet high and in a valley 80 rods wide.
