Farmers in some areas in southern Illinois are being troubled by lack of water for th^r livestock, and in a few place* water even for home U;-e is ha id to get, according to the latest report issued by the state and federal departments of agriculture. Dry soil continues to jityder fall plowing, and legs than one-tenth of the intended acreage Of winter wheat has been sown. Pastures are in very poor condition because of the drought. Alihosi, all Illinois corn is now out of the way^-of frost. This gear's crop came to maturity about a wf>ek earlier than the 1952 corn. Farmers are opening up their fields preliminary to active husking operations. HEALTH TALK Keep Your Hunting Scmw Safe Hunting is one of the most popular of all sports, but one. unfortunately, which each year is associated with accident and disease. Carelessness and thoughtlessness are two factors which contribute to this unfortunate circumstance, the Educational committee uf the Illinois State Medical society ponts out in health talk. / In inexperienced hand3. a loaded gun is a dangerous weapon. The safety mechanism is a device intended to protect the hunter from careless handling, yet many persons ignore it when carrying their gun. The safety device should always be, locked when the gun is not actually in Play. : > Some persons WaUt along with a finger on the trigger, forfetfall could result in the accidental discharge of a shell. Feet have been maimed and companions haVe been injured and even killed through this- careless factor. Irreparable damage has been incurred by carejessly looking down into a gun barrel. Climbing over a fence or up a tree with a loaded gun is also dangerous. A person should first slip the gun under the fence, if possible, to obviate any accidental occurrence. When walking on a narrow trail, the gun should always be held with the barrel pointing, well above the head. The gun should never be carried by' the barrel or in such a way that it could accidently, through a fall or bumping, be deflected against the body, perm i tting Hit discharge qf * shell. I » Severe accidents have occurred in duck blinds because one hunter is positioned directly behind another. All hunters should have front, unimpeded positions in the blind. In this manner, there is n o o p p o r t u n i t y f a r J M t e r to shoot another. Never carry a loaded gun in an automobile. Always unload it and then palace it oil the floor board. ; \ Tularemia, (popularly but .Incorrectly called r ibbit fever, in another hazardous result of the hunting season. The disease is spread not only by rabbits, but by rodents, fleas, ticks and lice. Hunters, marketmen, housewives and others who dress wild rabbits and other wild animals witlii their bare hands are ftairticutarjy s u s c e p t i b l e . - " : , ; ' : V < V " v . The causative "gerrii may enter the body through a cut or abrasion in the skin, thus getting into the blood stream and internal organs. A severe ulcer may form at the wound, no mat- i ^ cooler ter how slight in size. The lymph ' glands become inflamed, and the victim is intensely pick, havng a severe headache, chills and other pains as well as a very high temperature. ~ While hunters' have been cautioned to protect their hands by wearing gloves, since the skin can be torn by barbed wire and briers, leaving open sites for the germs » to enter, this measure does not always afford complete protection. There is scientific evidence that tularemia has been transmitted to man even with the skin unbroken. '• v Ordinarily, healthy rabbits are nimble and fleet footed. They jump and move quickly. Hunters should avoid the sluggish and slow moving rabbits, for these can be assumed to be infected with tularemia. So hunters, erijoy your hunting season. By heeding a few precautionary measures, you will keep yourself free frbiti accidents, and disease and ^contribjmi.jp, H» th« safety of others. ~ Ne^d A Rubber StaiHgt? It at the Plalndealer.
