However, seven teams were donated on that day for r cutting down Winklem&h hill at Ma- : . rengo and the work was started and is still continuing by t^ams donated from - the vicinity as the owners are able to spare them. At Woodstock, thru the efforts of I3^j;fthe Business Men's association, the "business men went out and raked stones on the roads leading into Woodstock, y especially in Greenwood township, where about twenty miles of very v'7/stony road was raked and cleared in ' u excellent shape. The stones on the > travelled way-which were apt to work loose during the season were loosened with picks and taken out of the road. The benefit derived from this work can only be appreciated by those who have travelled these roads previously and noted the consequent jars and wear on automobile tires and horses1 feet. The road commissioners were greatly pleased with the work done and claim ^ it to be the best job of stone raking they have ever seen done and have ex-, pressed their appreciation of the work 'done by the Woodstock businessmen. Let us hope that this good work will ^ prove a source of inspiration to the % surrounding communities and act as a J starter in making the highways in Mc­ Henry county the best in the state. We have the material and all that is needed is co-operation by all who are interested in better roads. 1 The work over the county was not general, due partly perhaps to the rush of work after the recent rains. However, at Boone county Road day, the third one, was held on the 12th of June or the next day after the date set in McHenry county and on the Bel- videre and Poplar Grove road 112 teams and 200 men responded. 1200 yards of crushed stone and gravel were placed on the road. The second Road day is to be held on June 19 in DuPage coun­ ty and we are watching with interest to see how the people in that county M respond. At the time of the first Road day the work was not very general, but what was done met with such ap­ proval that another date has been set. Perhaps, if indications warrant, an­ other date will be named in McHenry county in the fall. You'll like our drugs and prices. Both are right. Petesch. Bow Beater Beard it PmI Up On New Wails or Old THAT'S one of the 41 great advantages of Beaver Board. It can either be nailed direct to wall and ceiling beams, or put over old, cracked plaster walls. Wall­ paper is not used in either rase, as you get more beauti­ ful, durable and sanitary results by painting. Beaver Board is easily and quickly put up, ia very strong, makes a house warmer in winter, cooler in summer.' We can't begin to tell yott all its merits here- but wite us or call, aiid get_fall particulars. ~ +--- Wilbur Lumber (o. West McHenry. Phone 5 McHenry'8 neighboring little town of Volo is gradually becoming a center of attraction and fascination. Its peo­ ple are developing greater self-con­ sciousness, .courage and energy, deter­ mined to achieve suocess in spite of the many dark prophesies and dismal forebodings of futile efforts and wasted energy. The town environments are fast assuming a brighter and 'more in­ viting aspect. Why, its population is even on the increase. Only recently \f „ T -- I T piuvmnnt lUi. tlUUU UCU&CU Ul rivwvi-v -- S. has purchased the private residence adjoining the Catholic rectory and con­ templates improving same on a large scale. Our pleasant town merchant, Mr. Martin Stoffel, claims his business is ever on the increase and expects ere long to propose a plan for a new addi­ tion to his store. Yes, Volo has, according to all out­ ward appearances, signed a new lease for a larger town, a better town, a town sparkling with more life send an abun­ dance of good will and determination. Of course everyone fully realizes that all these developments are exclusively due to the revival of the people's in­ terest in the^ local Catholic church and school. Recently twenty-six school children received their solemn first holy communion, on which occasion the parish church was entirely too small to accommodate the large con­ course of • people. The three altars were one cluster of flowers. The diffi­ cult four-voiced mass, "Exultate Deo," was critically and harmoniously ren­ dered by the church choir of eighteen members, under the direction of Miss Martha Eberler of Chicago, who to­ gether with Miss Elizabeth Haberlan of Chicago, have constituted the teach­ ers' staff of our parochial school. These two most talented young lady teachers are not only Chicago high school grad­ uates, but also excellent musicians, be­ ing graduates of well famed schools of music in the big city. Consequently, it is not surprising that parents very soon recognized the abilities of these teachers and in spite of the. inclemency of the weather and the hardships of the road during the winter months, nevertheless sent their children from distances of four and five miles to re­ ceive a gold-edge education at the Volo Catholic school. During the past year fifty-three children have been enrolled on the school roster. To conclude the school year appro­ priately the school will have elaborate commencement exercises on the com­ ing Sunday evening, June 21, com­ mencing at 7:30 o'clock, sharp, and a matinee on Tuesday afternoon, June 23, at 2 o'clock. May teachers and pupils be rewarded for their manifold labors by a good attendance of friends and neighbors at the school hall to witness the rendition of the following program: Song of Welcome School Chorus Piano Trio--Waltz G.

The sta^e scenery for the commence­ ment exercises is being painted by the well known artist, Dr. CJ®*1, Ross­ deutscher. ' The cement-stone porches of the church, rectory and convent have been completed by M. Steffes of McHenry ana Henry Stoffel of Volo. These mason8 have also built two imposing cement block columns, mounted ijrith crosses, as supports for a heavy iron double gate at the entrance to the cemetery. Our congenial friend and trustee, John Brown, was undoubtedly the bus­ iest man in Volo during the past two weeks, acting as superintendent of im­ provements on the church and school premises and finding occupation for a large .number of yolunteer men every day. Volo is continually keeping in touch with Cuicago in so far as there are al ways some Chicago friends visiting with Father Francis J. Epstein. Of the recent visitors we wish to make mention especially of the Rev. pastor's good mother, who is honoring us with a few days' stay in our midst; then we cannot forget our good old friends. Peter Staudacher, Edwin Steffen, Ches. A, Molitor and Edward Leiser. Last Sunday the Corpus Christi ser­ vices were yery impressive and solemn. After the high mass an immense pro* '&S cession was held out-doors, w triple benediction from three which had been temporarily eregMptn the church grounds and bebottftilly decorated for this occasion by th* var­ ious parishioners. At this early date the town of Velo extends a most cordial invitation to Its many friends from far and near to en­ joy the Fourth of July with us at our parish picnic. Various amusements will make the day most agreeable to all, so kindly place the Fourth on your reserve list of engagements. .Your prefigure will be appreciated. % MONTHLY REPORT OP not KeKEXSV {Won SOB. D8P6VE. MEfrr ASSOCIATION During the month of May the of the McHenry County Soil Improve­ ment association has been of a varied nature and considerable has been ac­ complished. The work consisted prin­ cipally in the testing of soils for lime and other elements of plant food that are necessary in the production of large crops of corn and oats, and in the grow­ ing of alfalfa, inoculation of alfalfa and suggestions in arrangement of barns and plans for same. Several farmers were assisted in the inoculation of their alfalfa seed and in­ structions to many others were given. The many failures of alfalfa due to lack of inoculation or soils low in lime or phosphorus, or poorly prepared seed beds caused many farmers to take all possible precautions in doing every­ thing that will insure a good stand of alfalfa and a possible crop this season. The favorable conditions of the sea­ son will make it possible to cut at least one crop of hay, and possibly two, from alfalfa seeded this spring. That seeded early without a nurse crop is certain to yield twd good crops of bay the only crop a farmer can raise that will produce such a yield the same sea­ son it is seeded. Many old fields of alfalfa have been examined. Most of them- were doing well, altho a few showed the need of lime and some would be benefited by phosphorus. On a few fields steamed bone meal and acid phosphate were applied. This treatment was applied to fields that were making very little growth and were of an unhealthy col­ or. Lime had been applied last fall and the soil showed very little sour­ ness, indicating that the lime was tak­ ing effect. An examination of the sam6 soil last year showed it to be very sour. The application of lime, however, did not supply all the necessary ele­ ments to make a good growth of hay, consequently an application of phos­ phorus in the form of acid phosphate or steamed bone meal was applied. This proves very effective in a short .time and a rapid growth of thO alfalfa usually takes place. >-%'1 A chemical analysis of the soils of this county , shows that they are gener­ ally deficient in lime, nitrogen and phosphorus. Crops like alfalfa, clover, soy beans, cow peas and vetch take nitrogen from the air and the soil can be enriched by plowing under some of the above mentioned legumes so that there is no necessity for buying nitro­ gen. The farmer will always have to buy lime and .phosphorus and its applica­ tion to alfalfa will prove a very profit­ able investment, and in a very short time, on account of alfalfa making quicker use of phosphorus than any other crop. Raw rock phosphate may also be used to supply the phosphorus and U the cheapest form in which it can be obtained. During the month alfalfa or soils have been.examined on the following farms: C. E. Sherman, F. H. Wattles, Francis Bonslett, A. M. Schiller, G. B. Collen, M. M. Freeland, J. F. De- Yarmond, N. Brotzman, T.H. Murray, R. H. Brickley, F. A. Maxon, DeClurg farm, H. L. Dunning, Robt. Johnson, Frank Silliman, L. J. Stoxen, F. E. Stevens, H. T. Eppel, M. J. Wright, Fred Eppel, F. B. Thompson, J. E. Wetmore, E. O. Joslyn, N. C. Dunham, Fred Miller, C. L. Page, John Vasey, C. W. Gibbs, G. H. Leisner, B. B. Bell, C. C. Hunt, E, E. Baird. Many letters requesting information on drainage, fertilizers, feeding stock, hog cholera and other farm subjects were answered. On office days many farmers came' in for information on subjects of impor­ tance to them. The present month gives promise of being a busy one. Many request1? for farm visits are already scheduled.- An alfalfa campaign is being planned and possibly one on hog cholera. If you would like to have your soils examined or wish information on any subject, send in your request or phone us and it will be promptly attended to. Jf we are unable to supply the desired information from this office we will refer the matter to parties who can.

Dear Friends:-- Twenty years ago the 28th of August I came home from Dwight, and al­ though my businesa takes mo into saloons very often I have not touched a drop of liquor since that time. If I had come out for alderman twen­ ty years ago everyone would have said "that drunkard is a fool." But after years of sobriety I was asked to come out in my ward. There were three candidates in the field and I received thirty-seven more votes than the other two together. Two terms I had no op­ position, v/hich will make six years when my texm is up. You an tell tho boya in line what the Keeley treatment ha» done for me. Tell them when they po hotne to keep company with good men and let their old drinking companions alone. They can talk to them in a friendly way, but If anything is said to them about their cure say that they took it and paid for it. , I try to do all that I can to help the man who cannot stop drinking, and if you think my experience would be a help to anyone you are at liberty to publish my letter.
