Tax Workshop For Beginners Persons interested in lear­ ning how to prepare income tax returns may do so at a five-day workshop to be presented in October by the University of Illinois Cooperative Extension service, says David Gy Plocher, McHenry county Extension adviser. The workshop is designed for beginning tax preparers who plan to prepare returns for other people. Each year more taxpayers are seeking the help of com­ petent persons to prepare and file their federal and state income tax returns, observes Plocher. The Extension Service has designed this workshop to help fill the need for trained preparers The five-day workshop will deal with the preparation of federal nonfarm small business and farm and state returns, says Plocher. Dave Plocher emphasizes that the workshop is planned for persons who have had little or no experience and who wish to become more competent in preparing income tax returns for others. Among the subjects to be covered are: Discussion and completion of From 1040 and 1040A; Taxable and non­ taxable income; Deductible and non-deductible expenses; Itemized deductions; Depreciation. Capital gains and losses; Tax basis calculation and preparation of the business Schedule C and farm Schedule F. The workshop will be presented via the Cooperative Extension service TeleNet system, says Plocher. This is a telephone network with two- way communication between several stations throughout the state Students at each of the stations will hear and talk with the workshop instructors on the telephone network. Each of the Telenet stations will have a leader who will show and explain the visuals and personally help students with their questions and special problems. Each person attending the workshop will receive a specially prepared workbook containing copies of tax forms, problems, examples, and helpful information The specially chosen teachers for this year's workshop will be Donald L. Doerr, area adviser, farm YOU AND YOUR PET By Robert L. Stear, D.V.M Manager of Veterinary Services Norden Laboratories By Robert L. Stear, D.V.M Healthy Pets And Healthy People-- An Important Relationship There are many reasons for providing adequate medical care for your pet. We have a responsibility toward those animals we choose to bring into our lives More selfishly, pets are more fun when they are healthy and active And last but not least, we protect ourselves by keeping our pets free from disease Fortunately, there aren't many diseases that are easily transferred from pets to people The most dangerous is rabies, usually fatal to humans Rabies is a viral infection that can be carried by dogs, cats, bats all warm blooded animals. Since humans and dogs live in close contact, the dogbite is a common source of human infection There are excellent rabies vaccines available that can provide your dog with as much as three years' protection with a single injection The in jections are a preventive measure and must be given before the pet is exposed to the disease Each pet owner helps to protect the entire community as well as family members when pets are vaccinated against rabies Some pet owners question the necessity "in this day and age" for a rabies vaccination. I always remind them that vaccination itself is the reason we don't see this life threatening disease more often A less threatening but more embarrassing condition that can be transferred from pets to humans is ringworm Caused by a fungus--not a worm-the infection produces circular scaly patches on the pet's skin, with redness and hair loss. Your veterinarian can provide ointments or shampoos to control the infection, and may clip the pet to remove fungus remaining in the hair. A person whose pet has a confirmed case of ringworm may want to contact a physician for a ringworm examination In the meantime, keep children away from the affected animal until healing progresses. Parasites can also be tran­ sferred from pet to owner The most common examples are ticks and fleas Ticks are eight- legged round or oval parasites that resemble seeds. They are slow moving and attach themselves to the skin surface Fleas are smaller, fast-moving insects that scurry through the pet's coat when exposed to light Both these pests feed on the blood of the host animal and may carry serious disease, such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever The parasites can be controlled on the pet by flea and tick collars, pesticide dusts and shampoos The type of control that is most effective will vary Most pets do well with the pest control collars, used according to directions Some dogs and cats spending much time outside or having heavy coats may require shampoos to reach all the parasites in their fur Heaven't gate u ihut to him who come$ alone, »ave thou a tout, and it shall »ave thy own!

"Well, mommy finally got the car into the garage, daddy." o. 3. *««erT*o»J One more human health problem related to pets in the house is allergy. An individual human being's chemistry may find a pet's hair or dander an irritating agent and respond a c c o r d i n g l y . W h e e z i n g , sneezing, watery eyes and it­ ching skin are examples of allergic reactions. With the exception of allergy, which is a very individual situation, pets normally offer no major health threat to human beings. If your pets are well-groomed, their living quarters kept clean and family members observe the rules of good hygiene, pets in the family will add to everyone's en­ joyment of life (Dr. Stear regrets that he is unable to personally answer letters from pet owners He suggests that readers consult their own veterinarians when their pets have problems.) There is no boon in na­ ture. All the blessings we enjoy are the fruits of labor, toil, self- denial, and study. -W.G. Sumner.
