The American Cancer society believes that a carefully chosen general medical insurance policy is better than special so- called "cancer insurance" policies which may un­ necessarily duplicate the coverage a person may receive from a regular policy-and at extra cost. A high school teacher writes: "Are there any trends that indicate we can make a dent in cigarette smoking among teenagers?" ANSWERline: Yes, A recent nationwide study by the American Cancer society pointed to some encouraging signs. First of all, cigarette smoking is a minority phenomenon among the young, and the hazards of cigarettes are known. Also, young people value physical fitness and self- control, traits that don't fit in well with entrapment by the cigarette habit. Young people tend to favor stricter anti- smoking regulations, and young people who don't smoke tend to exert pressure on their friends who do. All of these points are pluses to keep in mind when discussing cigarette smoking with young people. A copy of "Cigarette Smoking Among Teen-agers and Young Women" is available free of charge from your local American Cancer society unit if you want more information. A biology student asks: "What is being done for asbestos workers who may develop cancer because of their occupation?" ANSWERline: Thanks to fine cooperation between the In­ ternational Association of Heat and Frost Insulators and Asbestos Workers, and the John Manville company, a special treatment center has been established at the Mt. Sinai Cancer center in New York City to follow workers at risk of developing mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer of the chest or ab­ dominal caviety. Studies will be done on biochemical markers for early detection of the disease and use will be made of a d v a n c e d , d i a g n o s t i c techniques such as com­ puterized x-ray scanners. There will be an intensive effort to test and develop new treatment approaches using drugs that have proved useful against other forms of cancer. Only a few of these drugs have been tried in treating mesothelioma, a form of cancer that was first identified in the 1930's McHenry county farmers have an unusual opportunity this winter to take advantage of a farm management and business analysis service designed to help boost farm earnings and improve farm family living. Extension Adviser Dave Plocher reports that the University of Illinois and the Northeastern Illinois Farm Business Farm Management association have added an adduional area adviser to service cooperators in McHenry, Boone and Lake counties. This increase in staff will allow approximately fifty new cooperators th» op­ portunity to participate in this program. During 1977 over 8,000 Illinois farmers enrolled in this cooperative educational- service dealing with farm accounting, farm business a n a l y s i s , f i n a n c i a l management, and mating the most efficient use of the farm's land, labor, and capital resources. An experienced fieldman provides personal assistance to each member. The area adviser serving McHenry county is George Young of Woodstock. Each of the ten associations in the state is owned and operated by the farmer members on a non-profit basis. The University of Illinois College of Agriculture provides help in training fieldmen and summarizing the farm business records so that each member can compare his farm record with others of similar size and type- Farmers who want more information about this op­ portunity to join should call their extension adviser at 338- 3737 or call George J. Young, also at Woodstock.

Wrapping Suggestions Spreading Holiday Spirit 11-11-12-7 "Why take a chance of dampening someone's Holiday spirit by sending poorly wrapped Christmas gifts through the mail," officer in chargeat McHenry postoffice, Joseph W. Thome, asks? According to Thome, customers can be more assured that their gifts will arrive in good condition if the following packaging tips are followed. A single item in a package should be cushioned with shredded paper, excelsior, compressed tissue paper, cloth, or expanded plastic foam. If two or more items are in the' same carton, cushioning material should protect items from contact with each other, and each item should have its own individual inner carton. Fiberboard containers, in­ cluding large soap, cereal boxes, etc., larger than the gift being mailed should be cut down to about the size of the gift to minimize shifting of contents in transit. However, breakable items should have at least one inch clearance between the sides of the boxes and the item to provide adequate room for cushioning. Fiberboard should have "pound test" strength of at least 174. This is usually shown in the box maker's certificate on the bottom of the box. Fragile articles must be individually cushioned, and all four sides of the container should be padded with cushioning material. Tape used to cloee containers should be nylon reinforced and should cover and firmly secure all flaps. When paper must be used for the outer wrapping it should be at least equal in quality and strength to the kraft stock used for grocery bags. However, it is preferable that paper wrappers be omitted if the box itself constitutes an adequate shipping container. ticularly important for books and records. Because of their weight, book should be cushioned so they cannot shift within the box. It is not desirable to ship more than 25 lbs. of books in one package. The thin, long-playing records should be placed in a carton which is at least one- fourth of an inch thick. Each package should contain the name and address of the person to whom it is being mailed foe wen as outside. An contained imfafa is that itwill be received promp­ tly even If the outside address should become lost or obliterated. Be sure to put return address on the package. And finally, address the perkagf correctly and IsglMy. so that U can be read at 2 feet. -- MMe IA !• riln d •i Shi • juyl* B6 sure co inciuoe tm up cock.

NOVEMBER «. 1877 the office, but sometimes we feel too bad to work and spend a day or two at home. There are medications now available -- antihistamines, pain relievers, cough sup­ pressants, and fever reducers - that can make the symptoms of a cold much less severe. These have their limitations and their problems. The antihistamines can cause drowsiness, which can be highly dangerous when driving an auto. If you get a cold, ask your doctor about the medications that reduce the runny nose and sneezing and coughing. As youngsters heard the old folks say: Treat a cold and cure it in two weeks; let it alone and it will go away in a fortnight. The time element isn't that exact, but the theory is the same. Much research has been done on the cause and possible cure for colds. Perhaps the answer will be found some day. But as of now we can't cure colds and anyone who tells you he can deserves at best considerable suspicion. I Health Tip Colds What can you do for the common cold? Most folks know you can't cure it. And yet we keep trying. We still waste a lot of time and money on pills and nostrums and treatments - all in the faint hope that maybe this time something will help. A cold is caused by one or more of many viruses, the American Medical association reminds, and. actually, grandma's home therapy is still good. If you get a cold, stay home in bed. Keep warm. Gargle to ease a sore throat. Take a mild pam reliever for the discomfort, none of this will cure the cold, bu& it will make you feel somewhat more comfortable while your body's natural defense mechanisms are building up enough steam to overcome the cold jirus. Most of us have a cola or two during the course of th^winter. Usually we try to keep gdmg to Cataract Surgery- Lifting The Gray Fog needs operators, pipe movers to keep ho- busy and working. Anyone wishing to help and get involved, should contact Harold Bowiin or Ed Hammer. To keep operating costs at a minimum all volunteer help is being used, even a few hours of help is appreciated. At the present time no one is being paid. Anyone 18 years old or over can help, and will be insured while on the job. Perhaps some of the young croup will become in­ terested. Help is needed from all sources. The removal of silt from McCullom Lake has begun. There have been times when short tempers have been displayed but, through "blood, sweat, and tears," the dredge is on the lake and working. Some volunteer workers have taken instruction on operation of the dredge. Walkie-talkies are being used to make contact between the operator and shore, making this a team Pleaat bear in mind, the dredge is operating at a minimum of its capacity. This Is partially due to inexperience of the operators, who must lesrn on the job. Plugging of impeUors with suqh things as golf halls etc, requires time to remove. In the following wrecks, in this conservation news, we hope to publish background material, specific planned programs, and keep everyone informed of progress and plans. Next week we will continue with the report, hoping all of you will join in and help make this lake program a "So often these days we hear of new advances in restoring sight lost to cataract - success stories of recovered vision - yet with all that medical science offers, cataract remains the nation's leading cause of blinde8s. "It seems paradoxical, particularly when the pollsters keep telling us that blindness is one of the most feared of physical afflictions," said Virginia S. Boyce, executive director of the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness. "We are combatting the cataract problem with educational programs, resching out to inform, reassure, and instill new hope." Cataract is an opacity or clouding of the lens of the eye, which Mocks the passage of light needed for vision. Although it can occur in the young, it is most prevslent among the aging. In fact it has been said that if we lived long enough, nearly everyone would have cataract. Surgical procedures remove the blockage, and in 95 parent of these cases, vision returns. Surgery is the only effective trestment for cataract, and though a delicate operation, it is one of the safest. There are several surgical techniques used. Considering a variety of factors such as the patient's age and general health, and the cataract itself, the eye specislist can select the most suitable for his pstient. Patients may be out of the bed by the day after surgery, and go home a few days Ister. Some symptoms of cstaract are - blurring, double vision, spots, ghost images, the im­ pression of a "skim" over the eye, problems with light ad­ justment, or the need for frequent changes in eyeglasses - which don't seem to help. If the cataract progresses to the point where it seriously handicaps everyday activity, the ophthalmologist usually advises surgery. There are no medications or eye drops that will control the development of cataract. Some may progress rapidly over a period of months, and some slowly over a period of years. Some cataracts develop to a certain point, and then remain there. After removal of a cataract- clouded lens, s replacement is needed to provide s new focusing sgent. The replacement may be cataract glasses, contact lenses, or s lens implanted in the eye itself ,at the time of surgery. The doctor recommends the method best for the individual patient.
