ASK YOUR OSCO PHARMACIST ABOUT 'OSCO'S FAMILY PRESCRIPTION RECORD-KEEPING SERVICE" FARM BUREAU GIVES VIEWS ON ELECTION Views of candidates seeking nomination for the House of Representatives at Springfield , from the two districts involving McHenry are presented on matters of primary concern to agriculture in a special report from the McHenry County Farm Bureau. As part of its new policy to help citizens learn more how candidates stand -- to help people'become acquainted with issues and viewpoints before they vote -- Farm Bureau has intensified its voter information service, Henry Edgerton, executive secretary of the McHenry County Farm Bureau, said this week. 5 In addition, the Illinois Agricultural association provides a rating of the candidates when incumbents seek re-election. Edgerton explained am "excellent" rating means the legis- • lator actively supported Farm Bureau's position. "Good" means he was helpful when agricultural legislation was considered but has not voted with the IAA as often as one earning. a higher rating. The IAA states in its Farm Bureau Voter's handbook that candidates with"excellent" and "good" ratings merit the support of farmers. Edgerton cautioned McHenry county citizens to check the district in which they live since the county is split. The 32nd district includes Dorr, Nunda, Grafton, and Algonquin townships. The 33rd district includes the remaining thirteen townships. MINOR ACCIDENT Gilbert E.

POISON AND KIDS-BEWARE!, Children are bundles of energy and curiosity. New sounds, smells and tastes are a challenge. They have a G-man's ability to ferret out the most secret hiding' places and an ape's agility for climbing into them...Just like your kids! Have you watched a child pick up an unattended soft drink bottle and drain it?...Cute?...maybe. Extend it further tho and you can see the element of danger lurking here. That sweet smelling stuff in the turpentine can, that new detergent so pink and yummy looking, that can 'of cleaning fluid with the daisies on it; or those pretty pills... "think I'll try one." Statistics show that adult carelessness is the cause of thousands of accidental poisoning cases in children every year. Don't let your child become a statistic.
