Farm Bureau Drive Winners Three McHenry area farmers enjoy the 1972 membership drive wind-up, as membership in McHenry County Farm Bureau exceeds the 3,300 goal established in February. A total of seventy-three were signed in the month long ef­ fort. From left, Clarence Adams, Harold Stilling and Don Justen. Adams and Stilling were tops among farmer workers with six points each. DON PEASLEY PHOTO By a margin of one, the North team won the annual North- South "feud" among Farm Bureau members in McHenry county last week to even the annual standings in this neigh­ borly challenge match! A total of seventy-three new members were signed, boosting total membership to an all-time high. North signed thirty-seven new members during the month-long drive, climaxed last week with a victory dinner. South member and employee workers signed thirty-six. The victory was the North's second as a team, matching the wins chalked up by the South on two occasions. Richard Arseneau, Richmond, was the North captain. South, captained this year by Fred Pedersen, Algonquin township Farm Bureau director, won this competition among townships in McHenry county in 1969 and 1971. North won in 1970 and now in 1972. Three people were cited for individual efforts in obtaining new members during this drive. Jim Keefe led all em­ ployee workers, scoring 26 points. Clarence Adams and Harold Stilling, McHenry area farmers,, tied for the lead among ail farmer workers with 6 points each. Their prize is a dlrwu?r-and-play for the winners and their wives at an area playhouse theater. Other top workers who earned several points were: Employees: Loren Miller, Den Reed, Eugene Frost, Lloyd Polhman, Doug Rudsinski and Lee Kortemeier. Farmers: Henry Boi and Clarence Dahle, plus several with one or two points each. At the victory dinner, Alden Kilian, Illinois Agricultural a s s o c i a t i o n d i s t r i c t organization fieldman, placed the successful drive in per­ spective, asserting the organization's strength in the legislative halls at Springfield and Washington stem in a significant part from the size of its membership.

"You achieved a major goal here in McHenry county of topping 3,300 members with this successful drive." Henry Edgerton, executive secretary, who planned the campaign and led the two forces as a neutral non-partisan commander, shared his satisfaction with victory dinner participants in going "over the top" of 3,300 members with this drive. He recalled the steady growth of Farm Bureau the past several years, and remembered that on Sept. 1, 1970, Farm Bureau in McHenry county had 3,008 members. "The 3,000-mark was supposed to be an impossible barrier, but we penetrated it. The 3,300 mark is a high target and about a year ago, we had 3,024 members. Last Jan. 31, we had 3,353 members, and as this drive started we needed to sign 47 members to go over the 3,300 landmark." Richard Arseneau, Rich­ mond farmer, served in a dual role - as general chairman for the county membership drive and as captain of the North team. Dick was captain last year and so had special satisfaction in the narrow victory this year. [ Ulteaigliitt [for g®@dl Bargain-wise shoppers look to ground beef to balance a food budget. No need to worry about lack of variety, as any cookbook will suggest dozens and dozens of ways to bring this nutritious and flavorful meat to the table in­ cluding burgers, loaves, beef balls, casserole concoctions and spaghetti sauces. Many new pack­ aged convenience products -- fro­ zen and dehydrated -- can be given main-dish status with the addition of a pound or two of browned ground beef. Calorie counters take note -- many meat cuts pack lots of fla­ vor but provide only a modest number of calories. Suitable for your consideration among pork offerings are generous 3V4- ounce servings of pork loin (roast or chops), 207 to 250 calories; ham (baked or broiled slice or roast), 219; tenderloin, 239 and blade steaks, 277. Beef, too, provides many low calorie cuts, such as sirloin tip or rump roast, 185 to 235; sirloin steak, 208; flank steak, 235; round steak, 221 to 238; ground chuck, 263.
