IT'S FUN SAVING FUEL ON A HONDA FACE U • PLAINDEALER . WEDNESDAY, JULY It. i«» ••HIHMMHlwiJ IC€L by Officer Jim Fitzgerald Public Relations Officer McHenry City Police Phone 385-2131 . w t MWiilWi 3®nflCw , 330-3737 • 330-4747 I As you all probably ha ve read In the Plaindealer a week or so ago, the McHenry city council has just passed a new or­ dinance that is going to affect every homeowner and apart­ ment owner in the city. This ordinance is the one that refers to the proper numbering of houses and apartments within the city that will make it easier for the police, rescue squad, and fire department personnel to find a residence whenever the owner may have a need for the services of any of these units. This ordinance, No. 79-157, Section 21-90, states that aU houses, buildings and struc­ tures in the city shall be numbered in accordance with the postal department's numbering system, and that in the caae of a new structure, no occupancy permit shall be issued in connection with any building permit unless the requirements of the new or­ dinance are satisfied. Further, it states that "It shall be the duty of the owner and occupant of every house, building and structure in the city to have placed and maintained thereon, in a place clearly visible at all times from the street, figures no less than three inches in height showing the number of house, building or structure. "MC79-157, 21-20(c). The new ordinance also states in it a fine schedule for those who fail to obey this new system, and that section states "...after receiving notice to do so from the city clerk, shall be fined not less than one dollar ($1.00) not more than ten dollars ($10.00) for each day on which the failure to so number continues, (e) The problem that brought this ordinance on has happened to every police officer who has ever worked in McHenry, or anywhere else. Too many times we have been asked to respond to a call for assistance by someone, and the dispatcher has asked the person Itsr his or her address. When the dispatcher gives us the ad­ dress, we respond to the general area and have to start looking for the correct address. We tan almost always get close to the house on our arrival in the area, but sometimes we haven't been able to find the exact address, and end up in a dangerous guessing game as to which house is the correct one to stop at. As the paper stated in the article, ihere was one call that one of us went on where the person had put huge numbers, almost six inches high, on the garage door, and then left the garage door open to make it easier for us to enter the area of the house where the problem was: and we couldn't find the house for several minutes until the dispatcher recalled the person on the phone and had him come outside the house so we could find him. It was an unfortunate incident, but luckily nothing bad happend that time. As you are probably aware, the police department responds to all rescue calls that occur within the city limits, and for the most part, we are always the first ones on the scene, obviously because we are always on the road and ready where the rescue squad, which is a fine volunteer group, has to take a few minutes to get to the rescue station to get rolling. The problem with the numbers begins to hit home when you think of the extra time it could take to find an unnumbered bouse where a person is having a heart attack. Basfcally what we are hoping for you all to do is get the proper size numbers, which should be of a sharp contrasting color to your house or building, and prior to applying them to your house or building, walk out to the road and look at the house. Pick a place near the front door of the. house that is easily seen from the road and put the numbers there. If your house doesn't face the road, place the numbers near one the corners of the house that is easily seen. When this is done, there will be no problem in finding the correct addresses when we, or any of the other units, respond to an emergency call Fiesta week is fast ap­ proaching (next week), and the city has many things for everyone to do throughout the whole week at various locations within the city. Also there will be the big parade and the different Drum and Bugle Corps both in-the parade and later in the evening, with competition between the various corps. All the different events of the week I'm sure will be posted around the city, and will be listed in the Plaindealer as the time gets near. Pick a couple of the events, or all of them, and join the rest of the city in its annual big event. The only thing that I'll ask is that you "think before you do", and make this event a safe and fun time. I'll be looking forward to meeting some of you then. Extend Fair Deadlines The entry deadline for Junior and Open class entries at the 1979 McHenry County fair has been extended to Monday evening, July 23, Mrs. Dorothy Schultz, secretary^ said this week. ex-The deadline has tended a few days becai the later-than-usual completion of the official premium list. This applies to the Junior show and the Open Class show, she explained. Meanwhile, the e deadline for the 4-H show has been extended also. Those entries close at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 24, Bob Hansen, chairman of the McHenry County Youth council, said. The delay in obtaining the complete premium list caused this ex­ tension. Many 4-H boys and enter the open class competition in addition to their usual 4-H project work so the availability of the premium book for all three areas of competition-4-H, junior and senior-is necessary.

Outlook Update - The grain market is bullish - but maybe it should not be says Darrell Good and Tom Hieronymus, University , of Illinois Agriculture Marketing specialist. Using a 93-94 bushel National average and in- creasing consumption we could still end up with a 700 million bushel corn carryover into 1980. If corn yields miss this ex­ pectation, prices could go higher. Of course next year's use must stay high in that case. And how long hog prices stay up will be a determining factor. Explaining their position, Good said that sometime in the next month we want to get a. substantial part of next year's crop priced. Looking at the soybean picture, four points were made: 1) we are using them rapidly, 2) there is going to be a minimum carryover, 3) the domestic and world demand is great, and 4) a large crop is needed. Soybean prices are expected to remain strong. "f The next outlook update for grain and livestock will be July 26, 2 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at our office. Horticulture Assistance - Martlne Rugen, a student at McHenry County college is assisting my office this sum­ mer. She is fielding a great number of the homeowner horitculture calls that come in.

European Cornborer - Here in northern Illinois, three-fourths of the moths have emerged. Egg-laying is in full swing, with as many as one egg mass per ten plants in the taller corn fields in Lee, Carroll, Ogle, and Whiteside counties. The most fields in the state with corn over 40 inches tall are in those counties and the surrounding area. One field in Ogle county has whorl feeding of 50 percent on corn that was 48 inches high. Begin checking fields this week for whorl-feeding. Treatments, if needed, should be applied during the last few days of June and the firsl week of July. Strong winds and beating rains during peak moth flights and egg-laying can drastically reduce borer infestations. This can still occur in our area. Treatment is justified if 50 percent or more of the plants have fresh whorlfeeding and the extended leaf height of the corn is 36 inches or more. Corn Rootworm - Com root- worm egg hatch is well under way in Illinois. Last week, rootworm larvae were found in the central section. These larvae probably hatched jhit in early June. New larvfT should be present now in our fields in n o r t h e r n I l l i n o i s . • * . . . " You can" for the presence of rootworm larvae by digging up the roots of a corn plant along with a 8 inch cube of soil around the roots. Put the cube in a piece of dark plastic or other material. Sift the soil carefully and look for the whitish, thread-like, rootworm larvae. They will have a tan head, brown tall plate, and 3 pairs of legs. Dissect the roots to determine whether larval are feeding inside them. The larvae tunnel just beneath the epidermal layer of the larger roots. Newly hatched worm! are hard to see because of their small size. : ••i r I •; £ If you find three or more rootworm larvae per plant and an insecticide was not applied at planting time, a cultivator application would be justified now. : Conduct Search For Miss Illinois Teen , • • ' • ' # - Prizes, glamour, travel, excitement and a modeling career await the winner of the 1980 Miss Illinois Teem All American pageant which will be held in Miami Beach, Fla., in November. .
