Most people, with chronic bronchitis live in cihies where air pollution is a problemn. The Lung Association says that because people don't consider chronic bronchitis a killing disease, it is often neglected until it is in an ad- vanced stage and there is serious damage to the lungs. But i 1981, approximately 700,000 people suffered from chronic bronchitis. It is es timated 'that more than 30,000 people develop chronic bronchitis everyyear.

For some months now, motorists going north on \ Highway 400 have been wondering about a low wooden structure being built beside the highway. I's about 15 miles north of Toronto and when they started putting t up, people thought it might be an ex- ions perimental vineyard or something like that. There were t. thousands of posts set about 6 feet apart. But then a roof of slats was put over the whole thing, and motorists didn't know what to think. Last week 1 finally got around to finding out about it. If you're from Asia you probably knew ail along.,It's, a ginseng farm. To those who live in the Orient, ginseng is a general tonic, a cure-ail. t's a plant that's used to make tea, soups, just about anything. You can even smoke it. The farm is owned by Sung Sa Lee and his family, who came over from Korea ten years ago. The Lees already have a ginseng fanm over on the other side of the highway ing. toward Aurora. They have about 35 acres in ail. They jast aren't the only ginseng farmers in the province. There are 3on some down in the Waterford area near Lake Erie. a the Lee's daughter Connie, is the only one of the 7 people ring who work the farms who speaks fluent English. And she knows plenty about ginseng. wali> t takes 5 years for a crop to mature. And Lee's f irst for- crop wiII be harvested next year, and the entire crop has od, been snapped up by buyers in Hong Kong. Connie showed me around both farms. She was tell- ing me that the wooden slats on top of the posts are pro- gers, tection from the sun, not the cold. she Our winters are noproblem since ginseng grows; in non- ring them parts of Asiatic countries that have climates similar t the to our own.i ,ung In the Far East, apparently, ginseng is Iooked upon as for- a real boon to mankind - good for aches and pains, atter nausea, f lu and that tired run-down feeling.
