Head "People eat three times a day is the reason everyone iden­ tifies with the cost of food and meatand complaints are raised when the prices go up. "It's different with the price of cars: If the price is high, you, maybe, don't buy one this year. "You can't do that with food because it's a daily necessity. The result i? people keep on buying food and complaining if they think the price is too high," were some of the comments made by Charles Budreck, president of the McHenry County Livestock Feeders association, recently. He pleaded with consumers not to blame farmers for the high cost of beef today, but to realize what is happening is the natural working of the law of supply and demand. "We have a temporary shortage of beef," reported Budreck, who predicted, "Everything that goes up comes down and that includes farm commodities." In fact, Budreck contended prices the farmer receives for beef have already started to come down. He complained that farmers are blamed for high beef prices when the real problem is inflation. He referred to recent com­ ments by Earl L. Butz, Secretary of Agriculture, who said, "Farmers haven't caused inflation as proved by the fact that in 1971, American con­ sumers bought for only 16 per cent of their take-home pay, which is the lowest in this or any other country. "The reason for rising food prices is that consumers, with rising incomes, have bid these prices up," claimed Butz. Budreck pointed to the fact that the average price paid to farmers for beef today is about what they were receiving 20 years ago, when beef prices set some all-time high prices in 1952. "Contrasted to this," Budreck called attention, "housewives today are paying about 33 per cent more for the beef they buy in supermarkets. The trouble is not the farmer, exclaimed Budreck, who remarked, "Today there are extra charges for the pre­ packaging in which meat is offered, but none of this goes to the farmer. "Furthermore, the pre­ packaged meat she picks up today are cuts which are closer trimmed than the meat she used to buy over the scales in the meat market. "She may actually be paying less for good red meat she buys today, even though the price per pound is higher, because fa t and other wastes have been trimmed away," speculated Budreck. He traced the recent history cf beef production, noting that for some previous years beef prices have been depressed, pushing down the price ran­ chers can get for fedder calves, so low, that many of them have gone out of business. "Eventually, this causes a scarcity of feeder calves available for shipment to corn state feed lots and the price of beef has started. Although this is where beef costs start to go up, it takes time to work through the finishing out process in feed lots, to the market, then to packers and finally arriving at super­ markets with all of the trucking casts in between. Budreck concluded, "When the planners establish national or international priorities, they frequently appear to forget that farms and farmers can survive without cities, but that the cities cannot survive without the farms " Finally, Budreck quoted E.V. Stevenson, executive vice- president and general manager cf FS Service, Inc., who has said, "One of the problems facing modern agriculture is understanding, I do not mean sympathy, but understanding by our city cousins. "We have a positive story to tell which seldom is heard." Plot Takes Form In Rehearsals Of Gershwin Musical As rehearsal after rehearsal end, the rough edges are worn off a play and the plot and story take shape. This especially the case with "Of Thee I Sing". Ron Zieglowsky, director and faculty sponsor of the McHenry West Side Players said, "This musical will be one of the best, if not the bestever presented by McHenry. It is a sharp political satire in musical comedy form, and even though it was written in 1981, it is very poignant to today. It was written by Morrie Ryskind and George S. Kaufman during a time of great upheaval in America. We were in the middle erf a depression and the government was doing nothing to help. The people were disgruntled and the play is representative. Another strong point cf the play is the music, which was written by George and Ira Gershwin." "Of Thee I Sing" is being presented by the McHenry West Side Players in cooperation with the McHenry Music department. The performances will be April 27, 28, 29 and 30. The curtain will The Law Serves You A Day To Remember - Bar Group Reminds Us April 19 is one of the more important dates in American history but the odds are, you don't know what it is. As an anniversary, it has never attained the stature of President Lincoln's birthday, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, or Veterans Day -yet, it's the day that made all those days possible. April 19 is Patriot's Day. Justin case you are none the wiser, it's the day when almost years ago, in 1775, the British marched on Concord, Mass , and the first blood in the battle for independence was shed. Every school boy knows the rest of the story - at least, he should. The Illinois State Bar association reminds us that stale law requires: "American patriotism...shall be taught in all public schools and other educational institutions sup- rise at 8 p.m. in the McHenry high school West campus auditorium. The very able adult director is assisted by a student director, Pat Morrison. ported in whole or in part by public funds." Surely, that instruction includes the day "the embattled farmer stood and fired the shot heard 'round the world ," as Ralph Waldo Emerson records in his Con­ cord Hymn. Since the battles that day, first at Lexington and then at Concord, set the stage for the Revolutionary War, the founding of our country, its Constititution and other law, it's appropriate that the state's bar group should take special note of Patriot's Day. The ISBA has done so by looking up some of the lesser- known facts about this day, which may inspire you and help you to remember, henceforth, what this anniversary means. Here they are: Paul Revere and William Dawes made their famous ride through the countryside on the eve of the battle, April 18. Somebody had to set the lan­ terns, "one if by land and two if by sea," in the Old North church to signal the British troop movements.

The 800 Redcoats who landed at Lechmere Point, "by sea" from ships in Boston Harbor, didn't mean to have a batde. They were after a Rebel cache d muskets and ammunition at Concord. But their orders were simply to "disarm the rebels and order them to disperse." Revere and Dawes, by dif­ ferent routes, made it to Lexington, but on the way to Concord they were intercepted by a British patrol. However, a young physician and Son of Liberty, Dr. Samuel Prescott, who had joined them, escaped in the night and headed for Concord. The patrol later released Revere and Dawes. At Lexington, the Rebel militia, the Minutemen, waited for the British. Their captain was a 46-year-old farmer and mechanic, John Parker. He told las men: "Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they mean to have a battle, let it begin here." No one knows who fired the first shot but in the fusillade at least six Minutemen died Parker's cousin, Jonas Parker, died of bayonet wounds. The British were turned back at Concord and Parker and his men engaged them again, firing from behind trees and rocks. The casualties tha t day -- Rebels: 49 killed, 36 wounded. British* 73 killed, 174 wounded. John Parker died six months after the batUe. Today, he is immortalized by the Statue d the Minute man in the Lexington common.
