County museum to focus on industry FALL RED RASPBERRIES NOW READ]^^H 0PFN TUE., THUR., SAT. & SUN. 8:00-3:00 ILLINOIS LARGEST BERRY East ot Woodstock on Rt North on Queen Anne Rd Concord Grapes Available Sept. 10th By DonPeasley Public Relations In the early years of McHenry County, industries like harness manufacturers, grist mills, and car­ riage and cheese makers focused on how they could best serve local farmers. Farming was the dominant occu­ pation, and the McHenry County Historical Society Museum reflects the agricultural heritage. Now, however, the museum staff and volunteers are focusing on an­ other facet of McHenry County's past -- industrial development and growth. The board has recognized this industrial expansion and plans to chronicle it with artifacts and written history. Industrial leaders will be in­ formed of this desire to chronicle this important part of McHenry County history, Museum Curator Nancy Fike said recently. The early history will be balanced with information on McHenry Coun­ ty industries and businesses in­ volved in some of today's sophisti­ cated high-tech projects. Many companies in the county are taking part in space projects through the products they make and services they provide. The survey of indus­ tries is aimed at generating reports of these companies so a more com­ plete presentation of "Industry, 1985" can be compiled with county b u s i n e s s e s d o c u m e n t i n g t h e information. Fike said dairying was an early major industry. Milking cows, creameries, and manufacturing cheese were important to the com­ munities of the county. One history book at the museum reports eight cheese manufacturers were started in 1867-68, and they paid two to three cents a pound for milk. Many farmers with 20 to 50 cows made cheese at home, but cheese manufacturers started in 1866-68 were founded in Richmond, Hebron, Huntley, Marengo, Greenwood, Ril­ ey, Union and Woodstock. By 1885, the county had 53 cheese manufac­ turers and creameries. Butter made at the Ridgefield Crystal Springs factory won the gold medal at the Philadelphia Centennial, so high was the quality. According to one history book, the county had 18,378 cows in 1877. Those bovines were producing 2.3 million gallons of milk annually. In the early years, McHenry County had several brick manufac­ turing firms, including a major one at Algonquin Brick Mills, and others at Johnsburg and Woodstock. Major industries included a pickle factory and typewriter manucturer in Woodstock and a brewer west of the city; a flour mill in Marengo; malthouses, pickle factories and hay carriers in Harvard; and saw mills at Algonquin and McHenry. Crystal Lake ice companies annu­ ally shipped thousands of tons of ice to Chicago markets. Among century-old manufactur­ ers and industries in the county are: Terra Cotta (now TC Industries) in Crystal Lake; the Sentinel-Herald in Woodstock and Plaindealer-Her- ald in McHenry; the title company in Woodstock; Miller Monument Co. i n M c H e n r y ; a n d S t a r l i n e i n Harvard. Edison's E-Team aids kids in need As children return to school this fall, Commonwealth Edison re­ minds parents to have their chil­ dren "look for the E-Team," if they are lost or feel threatened, especial­ ly if a police officer is not immedi­ ately available. Edison and System Council U-25 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers began the E- Team program in May, in time for summer vacation. The program has the endorsement of the Illinois Asso­ ciation of School Boards. E-Team members have aided several lost and injured children over the sum­ mer, and will continue to be on the alert during the school year. The E-Team consists of all 18,000 Edison employees, but its most prominent members are the crews of the more than 1,800 radio- equipped Edison trucks. If a child is in trouble, an Edison employee may assist by calling his dispatcher or supervisor and requesting the po­ l i c e , m e d i c a l h e l p o r o t h e r assistance. While a police officer is the first person children should turn to when they are in trouble, police can't be everywhere. Edsion employees are on the streets and in the neighbor­ hoods and can act as a friend to a t r o u b l e d y o u n g s t e r u n t i l h e l p arrives. A booklet on child protection has been distributed in the schools for children to take home. The young­ sters are asked to review the safety tips with their parents, then return a pre-addressed post card to Edi­ son. Upon receipt of the card, the company sends the child a free set of 36 E-Team stickers and a booklet of electrical safety suggestions. f FOR PREPICKED ORDERS OR MORE INFORMATION 815/338-0287 M LOtlDOn FOG* All London Fog.
