CONTRIBUTIONS TO SCHOOLS BEFORE BOARD (Continued from page 1) He explained that contrary to popular opinion, the RTA will be very much under the influence of federal and state laws, plus those of environmental control Boos said he has ridden on suburban transportation to great extent in recent wet KS, some of them good and others bad He pointed out that the only railroad making a profit is the North Western, due, Boss said, to the fact that it has had periodic increases in fares. The RTA representative told County board members he has heard the Chicago Transit Authority deficit is between $60,(XX),(KM) and $90,000,000. It was his opinion that a gr'>at portion of RTA funds would be used to lessen this obligation. In other action, the board agreed to Animal Control agreements with Woodstock, McCullom Lake, Crystal Lake, McHenry Shores, Lakemoor and Hebron. County Health Administrator Richard Wissell was present to explain a program undertaken to unify the issuance of dog licenses. He said the county has responsibility for control of animals and all areas contacted to date have agreed to work with his department. Member Richard Klemm asked if cities will share money for dog tags. In answer, Wissell explained that in cases like Crystal Lake, which issues a $7 license fee for dogs, $4 are turned over to the county for the expense of his department. This will eliminate double tagging by municipalities and county. All monies collected must be used for animal control. * Board Chairman Walter Dean named a committee consisting of George Hubbard, George Starr, Thomas Huemann, Harold Freese and Willis Simms to meet with State's Attorney Cowlin regarding a suit against the regional wastewater plan for northeastern Illinois. The suit will test the constitutionality of dumping water from Lake county into the Fox river.

Due to increased costs, the board okayed an increase in the monthly private pay rate for Valley Hi residents from $439 -per month to $455. Ferris Bros., Harvard, was the successful bidder to supply a 1974 Impala, 4-door sedan with allowance for trade-in in the amount of $3,179. The board accepted the resignation of William A. "Bill" Ward, effective July 31. Ward explained that his main reason for resigning was to accept a sales position with a Chicago firm which is the major supplier of election supplies and legal forms to cities, counties and townships throughout the state. Ward, a resident of Harvard, has been a member of the County board since April of 1965.

A financial summary was made of the school lunch program, which has a deficit of $7,371.71. As a result, approval was given to an increase of ten cents in the selling price for student and adult lunches for the 1974-75 school year. Student lunches will be fifty cents and adult lunches, sixty-five cents. This increase is expected to bring in about $19,000, w]>ich could cover the existing built-in operating deficit for next year, and manage the continuing inflationary surge. The Hester Oil company submitted the successful bid to supply gasoline for District 15 in the next school year at a price of 48.9 cents per gallon. The understanding is that during the bid period, any increases or decreases in the cost of gasoline will be passed along. McHenry's Favorite Sport center was the successful bidder to supply two wrestling mats at a cost of $3,662. Although the low bidder was Hayden's Sport Center of Aurora, Board Member Robert Thornton suggested that because of the small difference in the two bids, the McHenry firm be accepted. Mrs. Anna Cuda seconded his motion. In the vote that followed, David Cain and Marilyn Munz also supported the motion, Henry Nell and Dorothy Vick were opposed and Lester Smith passed.

Rosen Instructor - Ornamental Horticulture McHenry County College The best of blessings. The worst of sins. Pesticides have, depending upon the literature, been placed at either end of the spectrum. Unfortunately, like all other aspects of the complex system of miracles we call Mother Nature neither point of view is entirely correct. Discussions of foreign inputs into ecosystems in terms of black and white responses - results just simply is not reasonable. Ecology, at least at this point in time, is not precise enough a science. Although ecological research is being carried on at an unprecedented rate, crucial data in may areas is not yet available. By definition the Natural Order is a dynamic, ever evolving realm where pronounced changes are measured in decades, centuries, and ages rather than hours, days and months. In most areas, truly valid answers on the effects of pesticides on ecosystems; and habitat are still, years away. From the buc information currently >iured in computer banks, pesticides cannot be legitimately viewed as either "good guys", or "bad guys". They are chemicals whose benefits are derived from their ability to kill o r g a n i s m s d e e m e d economically harmful to mankind. Used correctly, they are, in the short run anyway, capable of lessening human suffering. (Long term data, i.e. twenty-forty years, has not yet been collected and analyzed.) Spread about wantonly pesticides can, and indeed have resulted in unnecessary death and destruction to both man and beast alike. The decision to spray should be based on what Dr. William H. Smith of the Yale School of Forestry calls "Pesticides' Eleven Commandments." road, Bognar succeeded in blocking his path. Sunnyside Security pulled up behind the Weber vehicle, which was behind Lang. When Ms. Weber attempted to back away, she hit the Sunnyside Security vehicle which was blocking her escape. The driver of the first vehicle identified himself as Walter Weglarz of 406 Burkart lane, Ingleside, and presented a driver's license as evidence. However, he was recognized as Walter Lang of the same address, whose driver's license had been revoked.

"Thou shalt be aware thai in multiple use situationi pesticide applications may ba incompatible with certain management objectives." Considering the limited data available on most pesticides and their after effects, the use of these materials where aesthetic, watershed, or recreation values ' are important may be made only with some degree of risk." 9 "Thou shalt appreciate that the more pesticides employed, the greater the probability of shifting the normal trends in the Natural Order." Ecologic instability is frequently created when the natural growth habits of a plant are artificially manipulated. In short, the Law of the Jung'r being violated for no lor the fittest flourish becomes pro^ pesticidal v 1. "Thou shalt give a reasonable amount of thought to all ramifications of your pesticide use, even if applications are small and infrequent." 2. "Thou shalt appreciate that pesticides do not solely affect target pests, but rather the ecosystems in which the pests occur." Plants and animals do not live in a vacuum, but in close association with other species and the physical environment. The application of a pesticide impinges on the living and non living components of the environment, as well as the pest itself The probability that incidental effects of spraying will be detrimental increases with the degree of broad spectrum toxicity. 3. "Thou shalt strive to use the most selective pesticide available which will accomplish the objective " 4. "Thou shalt select *' pesticide with tb< mammalian • acrr>rv .posure , icinal amounts pesticides through accidental or occupational exposure should be the primary consideration. An imperfect estimate of mammalian toxicity can be obtained from the LD50 values. Stated on each package, these values represent the dose of the chemical necessary to kill fifty per cent of a population of small animals. 5. "Thou shalt employ the pesticide with the lowest persistence period which will accomplish the objective." , In general, chemicals are used to protect plants from temporary invasions of insect or disease causing populations. Their lengthy persistence is not only unnecessary, but may result in undesirable migration of the chemical to distant areas. Unfortunately, data on persistence is unavailable for many pesticides. 6. "Thou shalt adhere to recommended dosages." M a n u f a c t u r e r a n d g o v e r n m e n t a l d o s a g e recommendations should be considered maximal. The use of greater than recommended amounts in the hopes of realizing more adequate control is economically and ecologically unsound. 7.
