Newman and daughter, Mrs. <£. J. Buss, visited Mrs* Qua ERrke last Wednesday afternoon. The East River Road Boosters Cluo held another open meeting at the j school house recently, with Rep. Thos. A. Bolger as the principal speaker. His talk was encouraging, very interesting and promising, according, to reports Of the meeting. jHis conversation showed that the road w%£ not only important because it is heavily traveled and -because, of the resident population, but, most of all, because of the fact that is it a connecting link between two important highways, Route 20 to Route 176. Representatives Lyons find Carroll are also giving their hearty support and they all feel another route to Chicago is very important and this is the shortest and most economical way. The club appointed Pres. Harry Wright, Mr. Redwanz and Hugh Kirk as, a committee to meet with representatives of'the county board arid government officials at the Riverside Hotel oil Aug. 12* Mr. Kirk and Mr.\ Redwanz endowed Mr. Wright with their power of authority to act for the club. - r • * The; county board representatives and the government officials took the club representative over the road from Route 20 to Route 176 and return. They then went to examine tht! Hack top roads of Lake county, nortlA of Waukegan and Zion City. These officials asked the club to assist them in securing the right-of-way On the southeast end of the East River Road. This has been accomplished verbally to the partial satisfaction of \ the county board representatives. The setup is working splendidly and work oy the road should start immediately after Labor Day, according to reports. The club appreciates the hearty co-operation of the county officials and the business men of McHenry in speeding up this worthy project. • The next meeting of the club will 'be held Aug. 23 at the little school house at 3 o'clock. : EXPECT RISE IN RYE ACRES FOR ' WINTER PASTURES EDWIN N.

Brock. "As a pasture plant rye is one 6f the most important of small grain crops," Brock said. "It will stand lots of abuse. It can be seeded both earlier and later than most small grain crops, it produces a heavy vegetative growth, it is not bothered much by the Hessian fly, it can be heavily pastured and still come through the winter, it grows at low temperatures and makes an early growth in the spring. For best results as a winter pasture crop, rye should be sown around the middle of August if rains permit, Brock explains. The seed bed prepcration is similar to that for wheat, although rye will do well on a rougher seed bed than is desirable for other small grains. The rate of seeding is usually five pecks to the acre. "While rye does fairly well on soils of medium? or low fertility, jt is the poorest of the small grains as a nurse crop. For this reason, Brock does not advise seeding clover with rye. However, if the soil is adapted to sweet clcver, this legume can be seeded with the rye. Then next spring the sweet clover will be coming on as the rye begins to ripen, providing the crop is not pastured too heavily. Rye seeded alone can be followed by corn or soybeans. It is always advisable to secure seed stock as soon as the amounts needed are known, Brock points out. In Illinois the five-year avetage annual acreage of rye is 66,000 acres. However, the- 1935 acreage, following the drouth of the previous year, was 126,000 acres Vienna, Austria,--The tomb of St. Josaphat, a Roman "Catholic" saint, in Vienna's St..Barbara church, has been pilaged. The glass shrine on the altar, containing the relics Of : the . saint, was broken by burglars, and a heavy golden chain with a cross, the pious donation of Archduke William, was stolen. Josaphat« was a Catholic Basilian monk who became archbishop of Polock, eastern Poland, in the early Sixteenth century, In 1623 he wafl killed by rival Russian Pravoslavian priests in a flight between Catholic Ukrainians and Pravoslav Russians. The tomb of Josaphat, who was beatified 20 years after his death and subseqently canonized, soon became the center of pilgrimage for Roman Catholic* Ukrainians. During the war between Sweden and tBussia in the late Seventeenth century, which largely was fought In thflt region, the bones of the saint had to be moved frequently to thwart thieves and desecrators. ~ After the war they were restored to their original shrine In Polotk, but did not remain there long. When Czar Peter the Great, in his efforts to suppress an, uprising of the Ukrainians, threatened to burn the felics of their national saint, a Prince Radziwill secretly transfered them in 1705 to Biala, where he founded a Basilian monastery and a church in hoonr of the saint. There they rested for more than a century and a half in a beautiful silver coffin under the main altar. The coffin disappeared during the Polish uprising against the czars in the early 60s of the last century. In 1917 when the district was occupied by Austrian troops an old peasant appeared before the Austrian commander and told him that the saint's bones had been Immured under the Biala church. There they were found, but without the silver casket, and Emperor Charles had them transferred to St Barbara's church in• Vienna. A wealthy Canadian family of French extraction by which the saint was held in particular veneration provided the new Bilver and glass case, and Archduke William, who was a pretender to the throne of Ukralnla, gave the golden chain and cross ^ich were stolen so recently. : ; mm Thursday, August 20,1936 FOR SALE FOR SALE--1929 Ford Conpe, Good REV.
