Replacement Taxes Sent Checks totaling $16.7 million in corporate personal property replacement taxes are being sent to local units of government as the last of eight payments to be made during 1982, according to J. Thomas Johnson, director of the Illinois Department of Revenue. The total distributed so far this year to the 6,788 cities, counties, school districts and other local taxing bodies is $395.2 million, according to Johnson. The largest share of this replacement tax money - or 52 per­ cent - goes to the state's 1,012 public school districts. Coming in second in the amount received are the state's 1,260 municipalities, which receive about 20 percent of the total. Next are the state's 102 counties, which receive a little under nine percent; park districts receive five percent; sanitary districts and junior college districts each receive nearly four percent; road districts and townships each receive under two percent. Other districts, each of which received less than one percent of the total, include forest preserves, fire, library, airport, mass transit, hospital, conservation, TB sanitorium, public health, mosquito, street lighting and water authority. The replacement taxes were authorized by the Illinois General Assembly in August, 1979 to replace funds lost to local governments when the corporate personal property was abolished by the 1970 state con­ stitution.

Saving Money by Charlie Watters I'll bet it was a bored vegetarian centuries ago who finally figured out how easy it is to grow vegetables and herbs in winter. He might have looked out over the tundra from a southern window in his hut and thought about the warmth from the sun. With a little imagination he could have wondered about raising a small indoor garden on the windowsill. However the idea came about, it has practical benefits for uss-today. Vegetables at the local marekt are at a premium price in the winter mainly because they're out of season, though for the price of a packet of seeds and potting soil, you can save money by growing your own winter produce. Seed catalogs can give you an idea about which plants will do best in­ doors when grown in either plastic or clay pots. Getting the seeds off to the right start is easy if you remember just a few basics: place some small pebbles in the bottom of the container for drainage, add potting soil and plant the seeds at the suggested depth stated on the package. You might try a number of different salad vegetables. Carrots, radishes and leaf lettuce work well. For a harvest that will see you through the winter start new seeds every three to five weeks. Parsley, chives and lavender are a 3 ffew of the herbs that do well in win­ dowsill boxes. Plant them in small containers - a few seeds at a time or you'll have more than you know what to do with. Lavender, by the way, can be dried and put into the linen closet. One thing that I've found very useful is to turn houseplants one- quarter turn per week so that each side gets even sunlight. This helps produce balanced growth. To raise relative humidity around the plants, use a water mister or sprayer. Rain water or melted snow is best for houseplants. Artificially softened water is not recommended. Once the houseplants start to grow, a blast of cold air through the sill can take the life out of an otherwise healthy plant. Avoid cold air drafts near windows. Wintertime indoor gardening can be an interesting and educational ex­ perience for the youngsters in the house and a money saving venture for the adults.

Dawn M. Milinac, 408 N. Lily Lake, McHenry, was driving north on Lily Lake road when another auto made a left turn in front of her auto. The driver of the other vehicle, Nancy C. Uhlir, 717 Irving, Wood­ stock, was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way. Linda S. Lossmann, 1620 Beach, McHenry, escaped injury when the car she was driving went into a ditch and rolled to its roof. Ms. Lossmann told county police she was driving east on Ringwood road and lost control of the vehicle as she braked going into a curve. The accident took place near the in­ tersection of Ringwood and Pioneer roads. James P. Kunzer, 513 N. River road, McHenry, received two citations following a two-car collision at the intersection of River road and Route 120. The driver of the other auto, Joan Kreiling, 3408 Woodland Circle, Island Lake, said she was stopped at the intersection when her car was struck in the rear. She noted that the Kunzer auto then left the scene. Kunzer said he became excited following the collision. Lori S. Krier, 1518 Lakeland, McHenry, was driving west on Route 14 when she lost control of the auto. The car slid into a guardrail. Bradley V.

If you're left with what appears to be acres of food, it's a good idea to plan menus that will enable you to avoid waste. This can be done by refrigerating the foods you will use first and freezing the balance. Cooked meats and meat dishes have a recommended refrigerator life of one to two days at 35 to 40 degrees F.„ but may be kept in the freezer at 0 degrees F. for up to two months. Chicken and turkey have a recom­ mended refrigerator storage period of no more than two days, but will retain quality up to six months in the freezer if covered with broth. Luncheon meats and sausage are not recommended for freezing. The red corpuscles in the blood get their color from iron.
