(Second in a new series of articles on the meaning and current functions of township government in Illinois.)

If township government has been at a crossroads, as some political observers have said, the turn has been made.

Township government is moving up the road of progress.

During 1967, township government continued to demonstrate that it is a vital part of the total governmental st ructure - and getting stronger.

L o o k i n g f o r w a r d throughout 1968, township government will further strengthen its position. It will also be setting the stage for increasing effectiveness during 1968 and 1969.

Normally, even-numbered years might be considered "off years” for township g o v e r n m e n t . Township officials are elected only during odd-numbered years. Legislation affecting township government is enacted only during the bi-annual sessions of the state legislature - again only in odd-numbered years. The big interests of 1968 are national, state and county elections.

But township government will not coast during 1968.

One stimulant is the failure of the governor, in 1967, to sign a bill setting up a commission to study the re-codification of township laws.

A bill calling for a re-codification study of township statutes passed both houses of the state legislature by wide margins in 1967. l ie n the governor vetoed the bill, without a satisfactory explanation.

This is "must” legislation, so far as township officials are c o n c e r n e d . P r o p e r codification of laws is essential for efficiency in government It is essential in o r d e r t o a c h i e v e improvements in government, wherever such improvements may be necessary because of s t a t u t e l imi ta t ions or restrictions.

Statutes affecting township government have not been codified since 1870. Some are difficult to find, many are obsolete, and many more need to be updated.

T ownship officials were not satisfied with this veto. Nor have they given up on the plan for re-codifying township lavs. A committee of Illinois township officials has been appointed to continue action on th e p ro j ec t . This committee will do as much as it can, without state help and without funds, to proceed with what they consider a

“ non-stop" project. It is certain that legislation will be re-introduced at the next session of the state legislature to achieve this worthy objective.

In many respects, progress of township government is s t y m i e d u n t i l t h i s r e - c o d i f i c a t i o n is accomplished.

The township group is also bothered by the governor’s vetoes of other legislation.

One bill, which the governor vetoed, would have provided for faster, more equi table distribution of motor fuel tax revenue to local governments. Many townships have a heavy responsibility over local and rural roads, and are frequently pressed for hinds when urgent maintenance if required. Continuing effort will be made by townships to remedy this problem.

Another bill, passed by the legislature and vetoed by the governor, permitted more effective cooperation between townships and municipal g o v e r n m e n t s on law en f o rce m e n t . Township o f f i c i a l s f e e l t h a t s t r e n g t h e n i n g l a w enforcement in all areas, and in every possible way, is in the best interests of the public. They will cont inue to promote this cause.

On the other hand, the state legislature of 1967 was one of the most active in recent times. It passed an abundance of new laws, and amended much outdated legislation - some of which related directly to the operation of township (and local) governments.

A new state commission was set up to study all local government, although it will not undertake the specific study of township statute re-codification. However, if this commission is dominated by advocates of centralized g o v e r n m e n t , township officials feel it may not function in the best interests of the people.

A variety of changes was made in election codes by the 1967 legislature. One of them authorized township clerks, in heavily populated counties, to serve as voter registrars. In Cook county, for example, they previously could not so serve. In downstate counties, township clerks may register new voters if appointed to do so by county clerks.

Another new law gives township boards the authority to appoint deputies for

responsibility and authority over trash disposal in township areas. Although this is related to the growing pollution problem, the bill went down the legislative drain.

On the bright side, Illinois township officials kicked off their new year with a rouang

convention in Peoria, late in 1967. The theme of this convention portends the future actions of township government;

“ Government which is close to the people is best g o v e r n m e n t . Township government is close to the people. Let's keep it strong!"

N ot only is government on the road to program, but is also on e through way. Stop rigni at intersect ing roads read, “ STOP b i g g e r , more centralized government" The meaning of this will be reviewed in the next article in this series.

Women in Homemakers Extension units around the county are reviewing laundry techniques.

A good work pattern for laundry is when you can move the work in one direction. Logical progression is: sort clothes, remove stains or pretreat clothing that needs this. Then into the washer, dry them, either dryer or line, fold, or dampen and iron if need be.

When you have to reach too far for supplies, velk too far for doing several of the procedures, you are robbed of energy needlessly.

Take sorting for example: a f te r sorting white from colored is a good time to

Mrs. Maley Resigns County Nurse Post

Effective March 1, the Livingston county Board of Supervisors has accepted the resignation of Mrs. Frances Maley, county health nurse for the last 13 years.

Mrs. Maley, who resides in Pontiac, said her resignation was due to health reasons. As her main work has concerned dealing with health needs of school children, she is well know n to many school children in this community.

She has been a public health nurse much of her life, serving as an Army nurse and then working in various public health departments. She was a school nurse in Pontiac before her marriage.

Among Mrs. Maley’s many civic activities have been serving as treasurer of the Livingston county Mental Health board, member of Cancer board, Zonta club, S ix th District of Illinois Nurses Association, American Legion Auxiliary. She was also named to Who’s Who in American Women.

check and pretreat stains or rings on collars and cuffs.

Too many products in the laundry area can make one confused. Why not try a dry washing soda for simple stain or rings, applying with a danp brush.

If the garments are greyed or colors have lost brightness, load these into the washer, add ‘A to 'A cup of a dry washing soda, set water on warm and run through the cycle. If you get a lot of suds you may need to repeat this process one or two times until the wash water is clear. Then put through regular wash using 'A cup of the washing soda and less detergent or soap than you normally use.

If you are in an area with hard water problems you may need to add washing soda to the rinse water also. In fact, it is a good practice to give your washer a treatment of washing soda occasionally to help rid the m achine of mineral deposits that cling to the agitator and tub.

Simplifying procedures and number of products used will shorten laundry tasks and give more time for the extra tasks at housecleaning time.

You can establish alfalfa, cloven and grasses in the firing without a companion crop if you use the herbicide 4 , 2 -4D B to co n tro lbroadleaved weeds.

Extension agronomist D.I W. G raffis to ld those

a t t e n d i n g th e re c e n t Livingston County Agronomy Day to apply the herbicide

I when the weeds are one to two inches high.

T h e p r e - e m e r g e n c e herbicide Eptam can be used to establish legumes without grass in the mixture. When Eptam is incorporated into the seedbed, it will control broad-leaved weeds and passes.

Spring seed in gs without companion crops should be seeded as early as a good seedbed can be prepared, said Graffis. If you seed in April or early May, the legumes will have time to become well established and still produce two or three cuttings before mid-September.

Forage m ix tures that contain alfalfa, red clover and grasses will yield about the same as alfalfa-grass mixtures if red clover makes up no more than one-third of the legume part of the mix. Seeding more red clover results in lower yields, Graffis said, especially after the second hay-production year. FARM VEHICLES PRESENT HIGHWAY SAFETY PROBLEM

Since slow-moving farm vehicles are traffic hazards, Illino is law m akers have prescribed certain minimum safety standards for farmers who use state highways for

transporting farm equipment.The safety law covers

moving farm vehicles from field to field and transporting a g r i c u l t u r a l p ro d u c ts , machinery, equipment and supplies over public roads.

Normally, a driver's license is required to operate a motor vehicle on public roads. However, a special exemption allows an unlicensed person to o pera te a farm tractor betw een the home farm buildings and nearby farmland for the exclusive purpose of c o n d u c t i n g f a r m i n g operations. If a tractor is used for other purposes, a driver's license is required , he explains.

Illinois law restricts the overall length of most vehicles to 42 feet if the vehicles are towed or driven on the hiqhway. When one vehicle tows another, the law requires that the vehicles be connected by a drawbar less than 15 feet long, unless the kind of m achinery being towed requires a longer bar.

Farmers operating farm equipment on highways at speeds less them 20 miles per hour must attach either a red flag or flashing amber lamp to the vehicle. The red flag must be at least 12 inches square and mounted not less than 10 feet nor more than 12 feet above the ground.

Instead of a flag, farmers may use one or more flashing amber lights mounted as high as practical and visible in normal sunlight for a distance of at least 500 feet to the rear. The amber light requirement is new. A flashing red light is now i l l e g a l on farm implements.

If several implements are coupled together, only the last one must display the lamp or flag.

If farmers transport farm implements over highways at night, the equipment must have two white headlights visible 1,000 feet to the front and two red taillights visible 1,000 feet to the rear.

Although Illinois law does not require use of the triangular slow-moving vehfcfe emblem, farmers may still want to use the device in the interest of safety. Safety

specialists point out that the SMV emblem should be umd only on vehicles which travel less than 25 miles per hour.AS TORNADO TIME NEARS. KNOW SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Just as April showers bring May flowers, so changing weather marks tornado time in Illinois.

T ornadoes cause more destruction and loss of life during April, May and June than during all the rest of the year, reports O. L. Hogsett, U n iv e r s i ty o f Illin o is extension safety specialist.

Knowing what to do if you hear a tornado warning or see a tornado funnel coming may save your life. H o^ett offers these life-saving precautions for tornado weather.

-T a k e shelter in the southwest comer of your basement, or go into a storm cellar or fallout shelter. If you don't have a basement, take cover under heavy furniture against inside walls on the first floor, away from doors and windows.

-Open windows on the north and east to reduce damage. Open windows help equalize the pressure inside t h e h o u s e w i th th e atmospheric pressure outside.

-S hu t off electricity and fuel lines coming into your home.

-Stay away from open windows and doors.

-Travel at right angles away from the storm’s path if you are in the country and sight a tornado funnel. Since most tornadoes move from southwest to northeast, travel toward the northwest or southeast. If you don't have time to escape, lie flat on your stomach in a culvert, ditch, ravine or other depression in the ground.

Livingston county farmers can compare their livestock and grain operations with operations of a similar size at the annual Farm Bureau Farm Management record analysis meeting Thursday, April 11,

at 7:30 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Farm Bureau in Pontiac, according to Roy Ew alt, fieldman for the FBFM.

1967 record summaries show that grain income was down at least 10 percent from 1966. Even though crop yields were the highest on record, drying expenses and low prices o ffse t the yield advantage.

L iv e s to c k sum m aries indicate that the number of litters of pigs farrowed on farms increased from 53 in 1960 to 77 in 1967. Average dairy herd size grew from 30 to 40 cows during the same eight year period. Cattlemen fed an average of 116 head in 1960 but increased that number to 174 head by 1967, Ewalt reports.

More than 250 Livingston county farmers are enrolled in the reco rd-keep ing and business analysis program.

Participation in the program helps c o o p e ra to rs keep accurate records and makebetter management decisions. * * *

Now is the time to plant a shade tree. Do it this month before they bud out, and select one that will fit the location you have in mind. Most of us want a fast-growing tree - and there are a number of good ones.

Here is a partial list, classified according to mature height:

Small trees - 15 to 25 feet in height are: Amur Maple, W ash ing ton H aw thorne, Carolina Silverbell and Red Bud.

Medium size trees - that grow 25 to 40 feet high are: E uropean Mountain Ash, European Weeping Birch and Yellow wood.

Some of the larger medium to fast-growing trees are: Red Maple, Hackberry, Pin Oak,

Green Ash, Linden, Thornless Honeylocutt, London Plane and Eastern Red Oak.

For a more complete list and for more information on a particular species, write us for a list or Illinois Circular 715 - Trees, Shrubs and Woody Vines for The Home Grounds. It sells for 15 cents per copy.

According to the propoeed regulations it would cost $32,000 annually just to nan an ambulance, without considering the cost of the vehicle and equipment

The propoeed reugiations have been formulated by the National Highway Safety Agency of the U. S. Department of Commerce, and a survey is being made for the Federal Government on "The Economics of Highway Ambulance Services."
