The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Ramer. McHenry. and the groom s parents are Mr and Mrs Clayton Wright of Richmond Following a reception given for relatives and friends, the couple took a honeymoon trip to Wisconsin About 160 Farm Bureau women from sixteen counties have launched 1978-79 programs with an all-day planning session at DeKalb the participants focused on prospective projects as they heard several speakers discuss cvrrent matters of concern to the agricultural community. Leonard Gardner, Illinois Agricultural association secretary and a man ex perienced in the state's legislative affairs at Springfield, delivered one o(v the more challenging talks. Garnder asked the women to give him reasons why people say they don't want to work or volunteer in the political arena, and pointed out that the volunteer force is a candidate's dynamic strength "Most of the men and women in the General Assembly are good people They are hard working They are dedicated They live ordinary lives trying to work for something they believe in Their support comes from folks like you-people without political experience but dedicated to good government and worthwhile legislative programs These people need you to come forth -people on both sides of the aisle seek help in their districts. So if one of your excuses has been that no one has asked you. I am asking you now -become involved Good government depends on good people taking part." The challenge to the Farm Bureau Women's committees in the counties was placed in perspective by IAA President Harold Steele: "We must tell the farm story to those who do not understand the economics of food production We must promote safety on the farm and support programs to protect the health of our family and friends. We must take an active role in electing qualified government leaders and then make our opinions known." Ella Martin, Marengo, headed the McHenry County Farm Bureau Women's committee members taking part in the workshop and seminar Projects to be considered include a series of safety seminars; promoted a better understanding of commodities and how the free market system functions, legislative projects including letter writing, meetings with legislators and candidates, and organizing voter registration and Get-Out-the-Vote programs Squash - A Fall Favorite Meet the fall and winter squash family Squash is a good food buy in the fall It's not only easy on the budget and good tasting, but is good for you The dark yellow inside of acorn and butternut squash is a good source of vitamin A Kveryone needs this vitamin lor healthy skin and eyes, and these yellow squashes are also good sources of vitamin C. some B vitamins, and iron Three common kinds of squash found in Illinois markets from now through the winter are acorn, butternut and Hubbard Butternut squash has a smooth tan skin and is shaped like a large gourd with a thin neck and a large end It varies in length from 6 inches to a foot or more The small number of seeds are in the rounded end. the neck is free of seeds The part of acorn and butternut squash that is eaten is yellow orange and is a very good source of vitamin A Acorn squash is shaped much like an acorn It is small and dark green with deep ridges in the outer shell , Hubbard squash is usually large and heavy Its skin is warty In Illinois this squash is usually dark green or blue green This type of squash is often sold in pieces for the homemaker's convenience Whether the preference is the big or little variety of squash, the buying suggestions are the same In the market, count on what can be seen and felt Squash that is heavy for its size usually has firm and solid flesh The skin should be firm and unbroken Spoiled spots on the surface of the squash can be cut out if not too extensive However, some of its bulk will be lost For recipes on using acorn squash with has and squash with apples contact Nancy Moore.
