r Lake Klwanls Club Foctd With Lack Of Peanuts "No peanuts" was what the Kiwanis club of Wonder Lake faced last week as its twenty volunteer road-corner salesmen were poised to sell them Friday-Kiwanis Kids Peanut Day. Bob Rowley, chairman of the club's Peanut Day committee, had spent a frantic week trying to trace thev 100 boxes of peanuts which a Minneapolis distributor said were trucked from its plant Sept. 11. With time running out, \s Rowley appealed for, and received some help from the Kiwanis clubs of McHenry, Woodstock and Crystal Lake. They gave up peanuts they felt they could'spare. So at 6 a.m. Peanut day, the lake County Cain Club To Hold Convention The fourteenth annual convention of the Lake County Coin club is scheduled to be held at the Sheraton-Waukegan Inn Sunday, Oct. 1, according to Club President William Myers. At this event, which is an annual event, approximately fifteen to twenty coin dealers throughout the midwest area will not only have coins, paper money, tokens and metals for sale, but will also be available for appraisal and purchase. Extensive exhibits are planned and the entire event is an ad­ mission free event open to the general public. PAGE 9-PLAINDEALER-WEDNFSDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1972 [ iHW Service News 1 indNj Bruce Larry Case was recently enlisted in the U.S. Army by Sergeant Harer at the Army recruiting office, 144 Washington street, Woodstock. He enlisted under the 2-year regular Army enlistment option. After taking complete mental and physical testing to qualify, Bruce chose the 2-year enlistment under the 180 day delayed entry program. Bruce is from Richmond and is a graduate of Richmond high school. His parents, Mr. an< Mrs. Harry Case reside in Richmond area. Coast Guard Petty Officer First Class Harold D.

All that day store owners and others who had pre-paid for whole boxes of peanuts kept calling for them. Many said they would "forget getting peanuts this year" but added that they wanted contributions to go for club's "kid activities, anyway." So if folks are wondering why they did not see all-day long sales of peanuts as in past years around Wonder Lake, that's the reason - not enough peanuts. Meantime, Gene Bach, president of Wonder Lake Kiwanis, said he wanted to sincerely express appreciation to all who participated and contributed to his club's limited activities. Give Reminder Of Deadline For Licenses Secretary of State John W. Lewis this week reminded motorists who wish to retain their present license numbers for 1973 that the deadline for having their applications in the Secretary of State's office is Sept. 30. Secretary Lewis warned that mailing the ' application on Sept. 30 does not meet the requirement of the reassign­ ment section of the law. The law gives a motorist the legal right to retain his license number "provided his ap­ plication for reassignment is received in the office of the Secretary of State on or before Sept. 30 of the current year," he pointed out. Lewis said the earlier ap­ plications are received, the sooner the plates will be delivered to the applicants, adding that all plates representing reassignments and numbers assigned in response to requests will be delivered by Dec. 1/ The Law Serves You From The Farm Most Popular Paperback In Latest Edition The latest edition of McHenry's most popular paperback will soon be found in almost every home and business in the community ~ Person Who Is Without Will May Leave Trail Of Trouble People who think* they would only be "wasting money" by having a will prepared may, in fact, be wasting their only opportunity to decide for them­ selves how their property will be divided among their heirs - and who those heirs will be. According to the Illinois State Bar association, if no advance arrangements had been made, in accord with law, for the distribution of a person's property upon death, then the state must assume this responsibility. A court must parcel out the property ac­ cording to state laws of "descent and distribution." Sometimes it is, but more likely it is not, what the deceased would have decided in his will - if he had made one. Ironically, the person who declines to make a will because he doesn't want to go to the trouble or the expense, isn't around to discover how wrong he was. Lack of a will, unless substitute provisions have been made, inevitably creates far greater expense than the few dollars it costs to have a will drawn and often results in confusion, heartaches and even Illinois Bell has mailed more than 14,500 new telephone directories to McHenry telephone customers. Altogether, almost 50,000 directories will go to McHenry county residents. The cover of the new directory carries an ecology theme. "You'll find emergency fire and police numbers on the inside front cover," Illinois Bell manager Stan Jozwiak pointed out, "and a list of many Illinois zip codes is in the front of the yellow pages. "In the introductory pages, you'll find 'how to call' in­ structions, your toll-free calling area, telephone rates, area codes for many U.S. cities, and other helpful information." Jozwiak added that any McHenry telephone customer who hasn't received a directory by October 13 should call the telephone business office at 385- 9981. Prompt delivery will be arranged. law suits that exact a still greater toll. The fact is, a properly drawn will, rather than be an expense, becomes a source of savings, at least for the heirs, because the effect of state and federal taxes is minimized and certain court costs can be eliminated or reduced. The Illinois State Bar, in its pamphlet, "Wills - Their Importance and Why You Should Have One," makes this point: "If a person dies leaving property, the Circuit court has jurisdiction and must either pass on the will or determine who are the legal heirs. A will frequently reduces expenses by providing that the executor need not furnish a surety bond to the court. If the will is carefully drawn, it can also create other savings." Saving money, however, is only one benefit of a will and not the most important one. Most people wish to be as generous and as beneficent as possible in death as in life, and a will permits them to do just that. By contrast, although state law selects the heirs, if need be, according to the fairest possible guidelines, no allowances are made for need, health, love or affection. Finally, as the quirk of fate sometimes has it, the law has in some cases bestowed an entire estate on a so-called "laughing heir" - the next-of-kin who happened to be intensely disliked by the deceased. There are, of course, alter­ native methods providing for the transfer of a person's property, upon death, to his heirs. Trusts for cash, securities or real estate can be utilized to transfer ownership to a named individual or in­ dividuals, automatically, upon the death of the trust's creator. Similarly, property that is held in joint tenancy ownership by two or more persons, automatically passes to the surviving joint tenant or tenants when one of the owners die. Also, the proceeds of a life insurance go to the beneficiary named in the contract. All such "nonprobate assets", as they are known, pass to survivors completely apart from a person's will. Chop silage as fine as possible. One-fourth inch to three-eighths inch is preferred. Finely chopped silage is more palatable and packs much better in the storage structure...This allows better fermentation and greater storage capacity. STORED SILAGE Cover unsealed silage storage structures with polyethylene plastic and weight it with old tires or silage. Do not repack the silage after it has been covered a few days. This breaks the seal and in­ troduces more oxygen to the upper layers of silage. SILAGE STORAGE Fill unsealed silage storage structures as rapidly as possible to minimize the poor effects caused by air. If a long delay in filling oc­ curs due to problems such as poor weather or machinery breakdown, covering the silage This doesn't mean that a will may not be necessary, even though it may seem that provision has been made to successfully^pass along one's property to his survivors by other means. "Nonprobate assets" sometimes have a way of suddenly becoming probate assets - subject to a will or to the law's disposition in the absence of a will -- as happened in the following case: A man, married for the second time, held a house, automobile and bank account in joint tenancy with his wife, so that upon the death of one, the other would be sole owner. The husband had two children by his first wife; one by his second. The couple were in an auto accident. He was killed outright; she died shortly thereafter. Neither had a will. Who got the estate? As of the moment of the husband's death, all property in joint tenancy passed to his wife, plus the proceeds of life insurance policies in which she was the beneficiary. Upon her death, since she had no will, the law gave the property to her child by blood. She had loved, but never legally adopted, her husband's other children. They received nothing. with a plastic cover reduces spoilage at the surface. CORN SILAGE For top feed value and yields of dry matter per acre, start harvesting corn silage in the early dent stage and try to complete harvest by the time the kernels are fully dented and approaching flint stage. Silage dry matter content will vary between 30 and 40 percent during this period. When the lower leaves are brown and the grain well-dented, silage dry matter content will be about 35 percent. FARM FUELS Liquid fuels are, by far, the greatest source of farm power. But unless this lifeblood of farm equipment is handled properly it can become the source of severe injury and even death. Fuel vapors are especially dangerous, says Ordie Hogsett, University of Illinois Extension safety specialist. A flame, a spark, or even extreme heat can ignite flammable gases, causing explosions as far as several hundred feet from where fuels are being stored or handled. Never refuel a tractor while the motor is running, or when it is hot. Check fuel lines frequently and watch for leaky connections. Never handle flammable liquids near an open flame or ignition source. And never store gasoline in a glass container. Guard against serious farm fuel fires by carrying a five- pound dry-chemical fire ex­ tinguisher on your tractor, combine, or truck. SAFETY FACTOR Most farm equipment has built-in safety features. Shields, guards, brakes, and other standard equipment are designed to prevent accidents, but in the long run, any farm implement is only as safe as you, the operator, make it. A good operator acquires safe operating habits. Training and experience enable him to respond almost automatically to dangerous conditions. Learn what precautions to take with each machine and then practice those precautions until they become automatic. Farm machinery operators must always be alert to handle sudden emergencies. Long hours in the field tire you, slow your reactions, and increase the chance you'll have an ac­ cident. Take time to stop and rest. SPACE *nd** AERONAUTICS ̂ WEIGHING THE WEIGHTLESS HOUSTON- The exten­ sive medical studies to be done next year aboard Sky- lab, the nation's first space station, will- require some­ thing very basic: a good scale for weipliinfc the crew members. But in outer space, beyond Earth's gravitational field, everything is weightless. Or­ dinary scales register a con­ sistent zero for everything. So Dr. William E Thorn­ ton of NASA's Manned - Spacecraft Center, working with other investigators, has developed a technique to measure the mas--, of the astronauts rather than their weight. Although mass and weight are not the same, the two are closely related. Mass measures the quantity of matter in a t>ody. while weight is the mass multiplied by the pull of gravity. Dr. Thornton's invention for measuring body mass consists of a small chair at­ tached to a spring, with electronic components to time the motion of the spring. The Skvlab astronauts must be strapped into the chair, for in the weightless­ ness of space the force of the spring's movement would throw them off the seat. Once they are strapped in, they release a control lever You'll return to your machine refreshed and better prepared to face emergencies. Keep children away from harvesting equipment and never carry passengers on your tractor or other equipment. FLY FREE DATE The Hessian Fly free date for seeding wheat is September 17 for McHenry county. This means that you may seed wheat any time after this date in McHenry county and be relatively free of the Hessian fly- Wheat plants can be killed by the fall generation of Hessian Fly and this will also lead to severe damage (broken straws) just before harvest next year. and the spring is set in motion. As the chair bounces back and forth on the spring, an optical unit sends a signal to the timer each time the spring passes the mid-point in its cycle. The period of time required for one cycle is directly related to the mass of the body attached to the spring. Every 21 hours during the three Skylab missions the crew members will be ^ bounced back and forth in the chair to detvrmin/\hfiij> mass. To calibrate the device, the mass of other pieces of Skylab equipment whose weight is known will be measured by the machine at the beginning, middle and end of each mission., „ The mass measurement de­ vice, which takes up about as much space as a two- drawer filing cabinet, will play an important role in medical experiments involv­ ing mineral balance, body fluids, and metabolic activity during the eight month Sky­ lab program.
