The Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America were, in 1933 granted a McHenry County franchise to cross the roads in the County with a 20 inch pipe llpe. One of the roads crossed was the Woodstock-A Idea Road known as Section 33 MFT in the vicinity of the McCauley UraU^ers farm. There U a change of alignment at a curve and the new road now under construction is east of the old roadway and beyond the double casing. To extend the outer casing would cost about 12 or 18 hundred dollars and according to a recent U. S. Supreme Court decision the County would be liable for this cost. It happens that the new road will be higher than the old road and there is more fill over the pipe lines. The County Superintendent of Highways was of the opinion that because of the deeper fill over the pipe a double casing was unnecessary. The State Highway Department is also of the same opinion and approve the omitting of the double pipe. The Natural Gas Pipeline Company also agrees that the double casing is not needed, "ittt desire the Countv ta be responsible 'or any damage to the road that might lappen In the futuro. We recommend that the County Superintendent of Highways be authorised to sign the attached agreement on behalf of McHenry County, Illinois. in the above matter.

They are going to dig ta a mound which already has yielded« at successively lower levels, tracts of several ancient races and they hope to find at the very bottom signs of a very ancient village da^ ing back to the time when man find scratched the earth and planted a handful of seeds, an estimated 6,000 years ago. If these scientists- succeed, they will have uncovered traces of tha first and greatest of all the economic and social revolutions which have resulted in our present civilization. The discovery of agriculture --the discovery that seed could ba planted and, made to grow in an orderly fashion and yield a greatat return than any wild plants--was the greatest economic or industrial discovery ever made by man. Agriculture did these things ftMt primitive man:\It simultaneously made him a villager instead of a nomadic wanderer and for the first time enabled him to produce mora than he himself could eat.
