Because of its common usage by husband and wife, the ISBA observes, the legal effects of joint tenancy should be fiilly understood. Hie pamphlet lists these advantages of joint tenancy: -A surviving joint tenant takes Over ownership of the property Without the necessity of legal proceedings or estate administration* If a bank account is held in joint tenancy, a. widow does not have to worry about being short of cash since ordinarily she can continue to draw on the account after only a short delay* Joint tenancy, in the case of real estate, is easily created, involving only the small cost of having an attorney draw up the necessary deeds. Also, real estate held in joint tenancy does not become subject to liens or claims by a deceased joint tenant's creditors. Finally, if husband and wife own property in joint tenancy, this tends to cement the marital bond and gives the wife a sense of security and a feeling that she is a partner in financial, as well as, domestic matters. At the same time, the ISBA pamphlet cites the following disadvantages: There is not provision in a joint tenancy for other beneficiaries after both husband and wife are dead. For this reason joint tenants also should have wills which take into account all property, including that held in joint tenancy. Neither' joint tenant is sole owner of the property while both are alive. While dual ownership of a home and car is not likely to create discord, husbands and wives may disagree over how to use bank accounts, stocks, bonds and similar assets. The survivor may not be able to manage the estate properly. A widow left, with stocks she has held jointly with her husband, may be headed for financial disaster if she knows noth- \ ing about the stock market. Also, in the case of larger estates, a joint tenancy can cause tax problems, and, in the final analysis, prove to be more expensive than other methods for distributing properly upon a death. However, the ISBA adds, the disadvantages do not mean that joint tenancy should not be used, but only that it. should be employed cautiously and with Ml awareness of the "pros" and "cons". Chest x-ray s used in the hands of competent persons, with properly protected equipment, are not dangerous and are of life-protecting value in the early detection of deadly diseases.

A cow drinking cold water must heat the water through metabolism of hay and concentrates. Milk production slacks off as she burns up more fuel for body maintenance and puts less into milk production. BATHE DOG Don't bathe your dog too often, warn University of Illinois veterinarians. Bathing removes natural oils from the dog's skin and coat, making skin dry and itchy. Unless your dog's coat becomes caked with dirt, or picks up an offensive odor, one bath about every two months is sufficient. Frequent brushing, however , removes dirt and helps keep the skin and coat healthy* MAKING A ^WILL Good wills are not as hard to make as most people think. To be valid under Illinois law, a will must meet these conditions: (1) The maker must be of sound mind and memory and at least 18 years of age; (2) the will must be in writing and signed by the maker, or by someone for him in his presence and by his direction; and (3) two credible adults must witness and sign the will in the presence^of the maker. These witnesses must be ready to swear before the circuit court, when requested to do so, that they saw the maker sign the will or that the maker acknowledged to them that it was his act, and that they ^believed the maker to be of sound mind and memory. TREAT HORSES FOR BOTS Treat your horse for stomach toots now if you haven't done it, even though you haven't seen bot flies or eggs this year or last. Bots attach themselves to the stomach wall and interfere with digestion. Vlbey often bring on attacks of colic. Heavy infestations may even rupture the stomach, causing death. As adult bot flies are inactive at low temperature, fall treatment cuts chances of further infestation* IMITATION MILK Non-dairy imitation milk is a poor substitute for the real thing. Food scientists atthe Michigan State university report that non-dairy imitations are inferior in two important areas- (a) calcium and (b) protein. The researchers say that the total protein level in non - dairy imitation milk is about one-quarter that of whole milk. The calcium level is only oneeighth that of milk. And although some imitation milk produces have Vitamin D added, calcium and phosphorous must be present in order for the body todeposit the minerals and utilize - the Vitamin D. Many diet - conscious people simply assume that vegetable fats are unsaturated, without realizing that coconut oil, which is the fat used in most of the imitation milk products, is more highly saturated than butterfat. To the extent that the degree of saturation is important, the fact that coconut oil is highly saturated should be considered. DO YOU PAY 40% MORE for WHAT YOU BUY? 1 mr How Can I? Q.

You probably do if you are one of those who buy now and pay later. Personal loans, installment purchases, charge accounts, and credit cards are an expensive way of life. They can add as much as 60 per cent to the cost of what you buy. There is a lower price tag on everything when you pay cash. That's why a save-now-buy-later plan is so attractive. The actual cost is even less when you realize that the purchase money earned liberal dividends while it was with us. * E 1 McHENRY SAVINGS & LOAN ASSOCIATION O Iron and f Structural Steel » ADMSS Bros.
