Even though the official census report just received gives us but an increase of eighteen during the past ten years, there are a score of other small towns and even large cities In Illinois that hare lost instead of gained in population in that time. are 1,031 McHenry residents in the 1910 census. McHenry's four rural mall carriers will share in the $100 annual increase in pay after July 1, when they will receive $1,000 per year. In an anxious, hard fought battle waged by her physicians and members of her family in their efforts to save the life of Miss Sitte Blake, daughter of Mr. and rs. Mathias Blake of this place, death came out conqueror. Only a few turned out at the meeting of the Fox River Navigable Waterway association held at the Riverside hotel on Tuesday evening of this week. The meeting was held for the purpose of talking over the Fox river dam, which at this time is in a very bad state and unless action is taken immedi# ely the dam jrill surely go out On Thursday evening of last week the newly Organized lodge of Mystic Workers of the World was installed at the M.W.A. hall, the work of Installation being done by Mrs. J. B. Downs of Ravenswood. The new chapter was christened, "Prosperity" and the charter members number fortyone. The various officers were elected as follows: C. D. Ross, Brefect; Helena Stoffel, monitor; Ada Anna Carey, secretary; John F. Sutton, banker; Florence How^, marshal; Phil Aylward, warder; and Addison Barfier, sentinel.

The Sundodgers orchestra will furnish music apd the patrons are requested to come at the opening hoar of 8 o'clock as the dance wiir close promptly at midnight. Citizens of McHenry and surrounding territory, in fact thousands of tourists who travel regularly over the roads in and out of our city, will rejoice at the news that the state highway department has announced it will receive bids for the construction of the three-mile gap on Rt 20, at Springfield, May 5, at which time a group of contracts will be let, all part of the $60,000,000 bond issue system. This is to cover only the road from the end of the present highway east of McHenry to the river and the strip from the river West to meet the end of the present highway on the top of Sherman's hill. The bridge over Fox river is not included at this time. By a vote of seven to six, the board of supervisors in Tuesday's special session, voted to reconsider the proposition of Sunday dancing in McHenry county. "In deference to the members of the comtfftttee, who have interested themselves, the order to close the McHenry plant Of the Borden company will be postponed for thirty days from May 1." The above statement was brought back to McHenry by the committee which went. to Chicago this morning, consisting of Simon StoffeU William Spencer- Peter W. Frett. DAXRY TOOD CONSUMPTION REACHED NEW HIGH IN '50 Ml'MPS VACCIXATIOJT Children below the age of puberty should not be vaccinateed against mumps, since this disease is relatively benign in childhood and more hazardous in later life. This warning comes from Dr. Leonard M. Schuman, an official of the state Department of Public Health. Commenting on a vaccine to prevent mumps that has recently made it appearance on the market, he pointed out that it is not known how long the immunity it confers would last, >and that the continued use of such a preparation throughout the years of adulthood would be clearly impracticable. Complete line of remedies at Wattles McHenry. Ivestock Store, 8tf Cheese and other dairy foods1 scored a hit with the people of the United States last year. The consumption of cheese per person reached a new high of 7.7 pounds and gains were made in the amounts of fluid milk, butter, evaporated and condensed milk consumed per capita. These facts are brought out in a special report, "How, Americans Use Their Dairy Foods," which has just been issued by the National Dairy Gevacil, Chicago, a non-profit, research and educational agency for the dairy industry. "Although supplies of dairy products were ample in 1950,. ' the prospects are that not enough of these products will be available in 1951 to satisfy America's growing appetite for dairy foods," Milton Hult, president of the National Dairy Council, observed. "The maintenance of milk production at levels necessary to meet increased demand will depend upon the 1951 feed crop and pasture < conditions, the availability of farm labor and equipment, and whether or not dairy "farmers shift to more profitable enterprises such as the 'production of meat or other commodities." Mr. Hult reported that in only three years since the early thirties-- 1943-44 and 1948--has per capita cheese consumption failed to increase over the preceding year. Two of those years were war years when cheese was rationed. The per person use of market milk and cream in 1950 was equal to 393 pounds of milk, an amount 16 per cent above the prewaf level and a few pounds over the per capita figures for 1949 and 1948, he said. Aided by higher consumer incomcs, sales of fresh fluid milk were greater during 1950 than in 11*49. ' J In thirty federal order markets, sales of whole milk were greater in each of the first 10 months of 1950, months for which data wefe available, than the corresponding periods of 1949. Consumption of butter per person increased slightly in 1950 over 1949 -- from 10.5 to 10.8 pounds. Production of butter in 1951 is unlikely to equal that of last year and the carryover from 1950 probabky will not be sufficient to permit consumption to increase this year at the I960 rate, he stated. Increases were registered In ice cream sales during the first and last quarters of 1350 but coo! weather in many areas during July and August reduced consumption and more than offest these gains. Ice cream consumption normally responds quickly to income changes and is expected to expand in 1951, Mr. Halt stated. Production of defatted dry milk increased to record levels in 1950 Domestic consumption remaiued at 3.1 pounds per capita. Mr. Hult emphasised that the retail prices of fluid milk and other dairy foods have risen less ovet pre-World War II levels than the prices of most other food products. according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Between August IS, 1939 and January 15, 1951, he said, meats rose 178.3 per cent in price; beverages, other than milk, went up 258.9 per cent; fish, 246. 7 per cent; fruits and vegetables, 131.7 per cent, and all foods, 1S7 per cent. In contrast, the price of milk delivered to homes rose only 87 per cent and dairy products as a whole increased only 117.6 per cent. . He concluded that dairy foods are still among the best bargains for the family market basket.
