i a 16 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, January 9, 1990 Back Talk by Kelly Storry Continued from page 12 overreact to weather changes, stress, red wine, and even strong perfume. There is a long list of foods, and daily things to avoid to lessen one's chance of getting a migraine. The list is so long, oN hard to stick by, it is almost impossible to not get a head- 0. Here are some helpful hints: 1. Watch your diet, experts say no alcohol, cheese, or nuts. 2. If you must drink choose white wine, vodka, and scotch. 3. Limit caffeine intake to two cups a day. 4. Stay away from anything aged, cured, fermented, pickled, marinated, anything with meat tenderizer, soy sauce, yeast extract, chocolate, citrus fruits, bananas, avocados, nuts, seeds, and aged cheeses. 5. Migraine sufferes do not take a liking to routine changes. Do we) skip meals, no naps, and get up every day at the same time. Another friendly piece of information picked up is that peo- ple Who use non-prescription pain relievers can suppress the y's production of natural pain killers if taken all the time. This can result in a daily headache, that will not respond to treatment until the body has withdrawn from the drugs It almost seems a little impossible to stick too to me, so | think for now, I'll keep the ice-pack, and Tylenol 3's close by. IF YOUR RD WARS HERE OVER 16.000 people could have read it this weekl That's a lot of potential customers for your business.

Jersey club winners At the Kawartha Jersey Club - annual meeting, awards were presented to high production winners. The Marsh Hill Trophy was presented to Harvey Risebrough, Oakwood, for the High Fat Pro- ducer, Sunrise Kenkare Brandy, with 395 kg. of fat. The Award for the highest composite BCA cow was also won by Harvey Risebrough with the 2 year old Sunrise Beacon Roxanne, with BCA"s of 270-242-259.

Durham West Corn Club Winners At the recently held Durham West 150 Bushel Corn Club Ban- quet, Lloyd Harbron of Ashburn received the MacAllbright Trophy for the highest yield of 142.6 bushels per acre. He was also awarded the Durham West Soil and Crop Improvement Association Barometer Trophy. The second highest yield winner was presented with a DeKalb Watch by Mrs. John Oldham. This was won by Mac and Grant Mustard of Uxbridge, with a yield of 129.5 bushels per acre. Yields were significantly lower this year due to severe drought in most areas, particularly Brock Township. Brucellosis Act repealed The Brucellosis Act has been repealed. A bill to repeal the act received royal assent December 6, 1989. Brucellosis is a bacterial disease of cattle, which causes abortion and high infertility in cattle. Through a Federal- Provincial program of vaccina- tions and testing, the once- prevalent, costly disease has been eradicated. Since Ontario has been brucellosis-free since 1985, the Brucellosis Act is no longer re- quired. Agriculture Canada con- tinues to provide livestock owners with a national vaccination pro- gram, and brucellosis is on the federal list of reportable diseases. Most of the diseases on Agriculture Canada's reportable list have been eradicated, but if a - veterinarian suspects that an animal has one of those repor- table diseases, he or she is oblig- ed to notify the proper authorities.
