FORTY YEARS Our horsemen are talking of holding a two-day race at the driving parte early in August. The old rookery of m ban, .just north of the. Riverside house, was condemned by the Board of Health last week and has been torn down. United States Deputy Surveyor C. H. Tryon was making an official survey of Coon Island in Pistakee Bay this week and was also making some subdivisions for Coroner Herts. One of the saddest accidents that it has been our duty to record, occurred at Terra Cotta Wednesday forenoon when Miss Elisabeth Powers, 16 years old, was killed by a passenger train at Terra Cotta- Her mother was nearby and witnessed the tragedy. Prof. J. H. Burger, who has presided over the West Side school with such acceptability for the past two years, has been elected to the principalship of the Leland high school. Died--At (her residence in Wan conda Thursday, July 9, Mrs. George Pntt, aged se ywn. ^ After an illness covering a period of over three months, Miss Mollie Turner, last Thursday evening answered to the call of our Master. A pretty wedding was soletnnized at St. Patrick's church in this village on Thursday morning when^ Mr. Richard Marshall and Miss Agnes Meyers were united in marriage, the ceremony being performed by Rev. Paul Bourke- Theo. Winkel informs us that Uie is putting his cider mill in shape for the coming season. The mill pond in this village Is the lowest at the present time that it has been for many years. The Messrs. Frank and Frank E. Block have received their returns from Washington notifying them that they have successfully passed the railway postal examination. Chester Goodman has had more than his share of hard luck during this spring and summer. Only a short time ago he had the misfortune to lose one of his valuable fprm horses, and the first of the week another of his farm animals died. TWENTY-YEARS AGO While eating breakfast at her home near the Johnsburg river bridge on Saturday morning, July 8, Mrs. Anna Meyer suffered a severe stroke of paralysis, the attack of which proved fatal at eleven o'clock the following Monday morning. Capt. S. M. Walker, who has been conducting a boat line on Fox river during the past several years, has lumber on his property along the river for the erection of a new sum mer home. Three run-away boys from * Chicago institution were rounded up here last night by Officer Jack Walsh. They passed the night in the town jail and were sent back to Chicago this morning. The hay crop throughout the en tire central west has been greatly reduced and many pastures dried up by the drought, according to reports received from the agricultural de partment. Heat claimed its 41rst victim In McHenry last Monday morning when Mrs. Mary Herbes dropped dead on our streets. She is survived by six young children, ranging in age from seventeen to seven years. ? . , jt r*x y TEN YEARS AGO > - Arthur Adams of Johnsbrtf* and Miss Helen Pearson of Woodstock last week announced their marriage which took place at Barringtoa on April 9. Never before in the history of our community as a summer resort has the channel in Fox river been as clean and free from weeds and other undergrowth as at the present time. This condition has been made possible by the use of two weed cutters which were placed in operation in our stream a few weeks ago. A contract for the construction of 1,000 feet of side track, extending from the Waukegan street crossing to Spencer's flour mill has been sighed by Wm. Spencer and F. E. Covalt, the McHenry Lumber company also to be benefitted by the extension, of which the latter named is president. A special meeting of the McHenry community high school board was held at the school building last Thursday evening at which time blue prints of the proposed new building were gone over and discussed. Tension, comparable to a family fued, exists at the President's two homes, the White House and the Rapidan camp, over his status and immunity as a public servant and * private citizen. The agitation has spread until it threatens to sap whatever strength Mr. Hoover gained in favorable publicity in the recent adjustment of international debts. The feeling prevails among the President's friends and well-wishers that he has again borrowed trouble in taking exception to simple news stories about his comings and doings.' The situation is extremely delicate as it has reached the personality stage in the "official party" involving Secret Service men and news writers who accompany the President on all trips. Advisers outside the White H nise circle are concerned over Mr. Hoover's tendency to cut; his own patterns for the "hair-shirts" as he dubbed his critics some time ago. It seems that the strife cropped out following the publication of a simple statement that the President had dashed back to Washington Jast Sunday to telephone Parts. A series of petty investigations involving the Secret Service and news writers climaxed the whole affair. Instead of dramatizing the incident to the American public, the probe had the opposite effect. Secret Service agents assigned to the White House have nothing to gain jn giving out information as their sole function is to protect the life and safety of the Chief Executive. The press is up in arms' at the taboo now in force which is nothing short of censorship. A prolonged quarrel with the newspapers would harm Mr. Hoover more than any other interested party. The prediction is made that Hoover will back down on his drastic order of dragooning everyone except his two aides into silence. Like all things forbidden a taboo would bring the pitiless spotlight on all his affairs and much that is generously suppressed would find its way into print. Have yt>u noticed the absence of spell-binders at picnics and other public outings in your neighborhood? The apathy of the general public to political matters is a source of real alarm to the party chieftains. The radio which brings orators into homes too frequently is partly to blame for the failure to invite party spouters to the platform during the summer gatherings. The supply of spell-bind, ers is far in excess of demand which shows that economic laws sometimes affect political affairs. There is a growing apprehension that the criticism of the Red Cross administration which came to the! surface last winter over the Arkansas and other drought relief measures may develop into a full-fledged Congressional inquiry. The latest incident of refusing aid to miners reported near starvation in Pennsylvania projects this smoldering controversy into politics again. The effectiveness of the Red Cross in times of disaster is not the main issue- Caustic comment in Washington deals with the policies of the executive personnel in erecting mammoth stone and marble office buildings with luxurious offices instead of diverting these funds to the relief of citizens in need. Under the surface of things there is a class note, an echo of the Taft-Mabel Boradman row which hinged on the alleged control of appointments by high society. Every effort is being made to prevent an open clash especially with an annual roll call due in the autumn. When a man of wealth and some political experience' is once convinced that destiny calls him to-the Presidency there is no end to his scheming to reach the goal. Joseph I. France, once a Senator from Maryland, has launched his campaign for the Republican nomination. France is a liberal Republican whose short term of service did not qualify him for serious consideration at party conventions in other years. His latest move is regarded as a futile gesture. Sol Bloom was a music publisher in New York before coming to Congress. He believes in effective sales methods for himself and projects in which he is interested. As co-chairman of the George Washington Bicentennial commission he has made considerable progress selling the idea of a nation-wide observance in 1932. A little stunt of establishing special working conditions giving the handful of employes Saturdays off has upset the plans of our Federal agencies for increased efficiency for those on the Government payroll- Organized* workers lauded Mr. Bloom but his receptive ears failed to catch plaudits from Cabinet officers and others who have more responsibility to the public than the generous little Tammany legislator. Bloom has stirred a hornet's nest which will break over the next Congrs--. FOWL POX QUITE SERIOUS DISEASE Carried by Common Variety of Garden Mosquitoei' Fowl pox In chickens is not chicken pox, according to Prof. Robert Matheson of the New York State college of agriculture, who explains that this troublesome poultry disease Is carried by mosquitoes. Fowl pox appears as warty nodules or lesions on the comb, wattles, and skin of the heads of fowls, he says, and causes a decided lessening of egg laying. In more serious cases, it kills. Speaking from the Cornell university radio station, Professor Matheson states that while the specific cause of the disease is unknown, investigations at the Rockefeller Institute of medical research and at Con.ell show that the disease is carried by mosquitoes. Whether It may be contracted in any other way has not yet been determined. Other blood-sbeklng Insects besides marsh mosquitoes and the •eonnpion garden variety of early spring mosquitoes, that hatch in April and five all summer, may carry the disease from Infected poultry to the healthy oues. Apparently a mosquito which has become infected will continue to be a spreader of the disease throughout her natural life. The male mosquito is of course, harmless. Due to the heavy losses that result from fowl pox, a reasonable precaution is to use up-to-date methods to prevent mosquitoes from breeding In the vicinity of poultry plants. Immunization against ^pldetnlcs of the disease can be assured by vacclnaton, but this is expeosire for the commercial poultry man, considering the preseat {pi>ce for eggs. eCDuten did not wrsMIlwry of what u now the isthmus ot Panuia, The Isthmus of Darten is property that portion between the gulfs of Uraba and San Miguel, 35 miles in minimum width.

The first problem is thst of brooding the poults. Many investigators have found that turkeys can be raised with greater success in confinement than on unlimited range, especially where chickens have been raised on the same farm. Chickens are susceptible to the cecum worm, which is host to the blackhead germ, which. In turn, Is the greatest single cause of turkey losses. Because of this gooU igemenj jJejjiamJls yj^t poults £$ J on fresh gronnci and awny from old turkey or chicken yards or runs. The Nebraska station gives some very valuable pointers on turkey production. Poults will thrive best if not overcrowded. One square foot of brooder space per poult is recommended. Units of over 100 are not recommended except for those who have had considerable brooding experience. »m- frin a raiset Powdered Skim Milk Is .
