Officials estimate that Illinois is currently losing about 100,000 acres of farmland per year. According to projected agricultural needs for the year 2000, the United States will need to plant 84-143 million acres more than are presently used for prime farmland if it is to meet foreign and domestic food needs. Obviously something must be done to halt the rapid conversion of farmland to non-farm uses or America will face a serious food-shortage risk in the next century. The Illinois legislature has made an important step to save our state's valuable farmland with this year's passage of the Farmland Preser­ vation act. The act to slow farmland conversion was signed into law by Governor Thompson last month at the second annual governors' con­ ference on the protection of Illinois' farmland. The act officially extends an executive order issued by the governor in 1980 which has already saved thousands of acres of Illinois farmland for agricultural uses. Under provisions of the farmland preservation program, all proposed farmland conversions for government projects such as highway construction must be evaluated by an oversight board before they can proceed. The bill sets up an Inter-Agency committee on Farmland Preservation comprised of representatives of 10 state agencies and departments. The director of the Department of Agriculture will chair the oversight board which will prepare policy statements and working agreements analyzing state government farmland conversion projects. The group will attempt to reach compromise proposals for prospective projects which protect Illinois farmland as much as possible. Construction of Highway 51 between Bloomington and Decatur provides an excellent example of the working of the new oversight board. The highway construction on 51 was originally proposed as a full freeway project with full access controls such as "cloverleaf" interchanges. The construction as originally proposed would have converted nearly 2,000 acres of prime farmland to highway use. Under the direction of the board, the plans were changed to build the highway, to expressway standards rather than freeway specifications. Consequently, two lanes will be built rather than four, local roads will still cross the highway rather than pass over it, no cloverleaf interchanges will be constructed and 1,300 acres of farmland will be preserved. The revised highway requires only 700 acres of land. Another area over which the board will have jurisdiction is troublesome double utility poles. A compromise between the Office of Consumer Af­ fairs and the Illinois Commerce commission to eliminate the double poles is currently being considered as a result of the preservation program. Single poles are considerably easier for farmers to maneuver machinery around. The Farmland Preservation act provides specific enforcement powers for the Department of Agriculture to institute the new protective plans. State funds, according to the legislation, may not be spent for land acquisition or construction until the department has conducted a study on the project's impact. However, if the department fails to conduct the study in 30 days time, the project may proceed, thus en­ couraging a speedy processing of proposals. Agriculture feeds and clothes each of us and we all have a responsibility to our future to preserve the most basic of agricultural necessities - our farmland. We in the state legislature feel the passage of the Farmland Preser­ vation act is a gpotf step toward assuring a comfortable tomorrow for Illinois and the rfest of the world which her farmers £erve so well. The first women's union in America was formed by "tailoresses" in New York in 1825. The word "lace" comes from the Latin word laqueus which means noose or snare. A man named Gabriel Daniel Fahrenheit developed the tem­ perature scale that bears his name. He was born in Germany in 1686. I Independence? That's middle class blasphemy.

Total- Dent has been created to assist low- income individuals in obtaining quality, thorough dental care. Total-Dent is a continuation of the existing program, Senior Dent, which was established in 1961 for persons over 65 years of age. The age requirement has been dropped for the new program in an effort to make sure all citizens who meet the income requirements can receive adequate dental care. ' "The dentists of Illinois realize the economy has made it difficult to set a high priority for dental care," said Robert Rechner, executive director of Three-Year\*eriod the Illinois State Dental society. "This program was designed to help those individuals who have not been able to visit the dentist regularly because of income restrictions." Participants in the program will receive dental care at a minimum discount of 20 percent of the normal, usual fee. --" * In order to qualify for participation in the Total-Dent program, a person must earn less than $7,000 if single; earn less than $10,000 if married; and not be eligible for Medicaid or other dental insurance coverage? By calling the Total-Dent toll free number, 1-800-252-2930, qualified persons will be referred to a par­ ticipating Total-Dent dentist. r<9 Cwiuct nurtil VA ifflci (dMck ytui ptwnt bMk) tr • local utttrtns group JOHfd L.

STATE 815-568-7345 Fire Deaths Claim 11 Kurt Begalka News Media Service by Kui S&MgJ At a recent meeting of Illinois firefighters at the Field Museum of Natural History, some startling statistics were revealed. Lonnie Jackson, public relations officer for the Mount Prospect Fire department, said the United States suffers about 12,000 fire deaths each year at a cost of some $21 billion. Closer to home, the State Fire Marshal's office reports that 11 people have died due to fires in McHenry county between 1978-1981. In Jackson's view that's 11 too many. Noted Lt. Thomas O'Connel from the Chicago Fire department's Fire Prevention Bureau, "We won't be satisfied unti) every fire is prevented." Here are some tips on how you can avoid becoming a statistic: -- Install smoke detectors at the tops of stairways, bedrooms and in the basement; -- Don't overload circuits or electrical sockets and keep the proper fuses handy; -- Inspect your heating system, wood-burning stoves and chimneys on an annual basis, Keep flammable liquids and rags outside to allow ventilation and avoid spontaneous combustion; -- Use flashlights, not candles; -- Make sure electrical appliances bear the UL seal (Underwriter's Laboratories), and turn them off when you're through; -- Cook with care. Cooking and heating are the primary causes of fire; -- Equip your home with 2Ms-pound, o all-purpose dry . chemical -lire extinquishers and learn how to use r them; -- Keep matches, lighters and other flammables beyond the reach of children; -- Keep emergency phone numbers visible; ' -- Work out a family escape plan in case of fire and rehearse it. Make sure baysitters know what to do, as well. The plan should contain alternate routes, such as through windows, and designated place to meet once outside. Make sure windows and screens work easily and sleep with bedroom doors closed. It will protect against heat and smoke. Of course, that will do little good if the fire starts tn the bedroom. Don't smoke in bed. 1 Most fires private residences, especially in rui'al areas. Dick Menzel, chief of the Woodstock Rural Fire Department, believes this is due to weaker building code enforcement and fire inspection. Also, because outlying areas are less accessible, it allows time for the fire to grow. Regardless of where you live, you should know what to do if a fire does start. Let's say you wake up to discover your bedroom is filled with smoke. Don't investigate, act; Get down and crawl toward the nearest exit. Smoke rises, leaving a corridor of relatively fresh air near the floor. Take short breaths, breathing through your nose. If your clothes are on fire, stop, drop and roll. It will minimize burns. If the door is hot, do not open it. Use an alternate, escape route out the window. On the second floor, tie together sheets, use a rope, or better yet, keep a folding escape ladder in the room. If none of these options are feasible, call for help. Do not jump. After meeting at your pre-arranged point, call the fire department from a neighbor's phonet^pfeak clearly, making sure your message is confirmed. The emergency number for this area is 911. And once outside, stay there. "Public education is really what it comes down to,"- Menzel said. "Unfortunately it takes a tragedy to make people aware." - * I CHRISTIANITY IS NOT JUST A RELIGION IT IS A RELATIONSHIP! COME LET US WORSHIP GOD TOGETHER THIS LORD'S DAY. Church of Christ 1304 N.
