These five -heat stroke, popularly, known as' sunstroKe, heal exhaustion and heat cramps. StangeJy enough, first aid relief for these conditions varies, the educational committee of the Illinois Medical society observes in a health t»!k. Heal or sunstroke is not due to the sun's rays, but rather to the infra-red or heat rays. The condition may occur in such .places as industrial plants, oi laundries where the workers art exposed to excessive heat.'It may develop in persons who. perspire profusely thereby losing great quantities of' salt from the body and it may develop in those who do not perspire at all. Normally " the temperature of the body is mainained by a little center in the brain which act? like a thermostat. When changing weather conditions cause th< f temperature to rise and fall, thi? '.little center turns loose the mechnisms that lielp the bod} maintain its normal tempera tu: e. v / When heat stroke occurs, thest nomally acting mechanics arr th'dwn out of order.

Firist aic here calls for warmth, qui<!t anc stimulants. Heat cramps are muscular cramps due to excessive loss of salt in the body. Even though large amounts of water arje being consumed, the normal salt ir the body is being lost thiW>ug> perspiration. Ordinarily, a person receives enough salt for body comfort through normal seasoning of food. However, in persons exposed to excessive, environmental heat occupationally, the continued and excessive perspiration is more rapid, depleting normal body supply. Before taking additiona.1 amounts of salt, a person should consult his physician. In patients with heart disog.se - or "fttgh btoofl ptetffiiee, tha iatai^. of additional salt can prove harmful. That is why physicians generally do not advocate the indiscriminate use of salt tablets. In industrial plants wheresalt tablets a:*e a- ' vailable^ the workers are^-pjetty much under the supewisioi) of a plant physiciaqor rjwrse./ The wisdom c«~e6nsultfrg a physician cannot be overestimated. Additional salt will, in some persons, produce the same effects or dizziness and nausea that result from loss of -salt. The power of the body to adjust and regulate its temperature is one of the most interesting phenomenon in physiology, but it is also recognizable that the human body is unable to adjust itself satisfactorily to excessive temperature fbr a long period of time. Sensible precautions should be taken in hot weather. Cool, comfortable clothing should be worn, alcoholic drinks should be avoided and ^aghter meals, should be ingested ko reduce energy producing fuel. And, above all, remain placid and csilni. Wheat Stocks Break Records Carry-over of old whe%t on July 1 broke the 'previous record by a big margin.

STYLE REVUE ENTERTAINER SwSJSS RMMM iiiiiiiiMliiiiiiii We won't eat much more bread If the price drops a penny a loaf -- nor will we eat much less if the price goes up a cent. Seed -- We need some wheat for seed -- say 65 million bushels. We used 70 million bushels last year and 88 million during the two years before that. Fewer acres planted, to wheat mean less wheat used fur seed. There's not rnuch" chance to increase the use if wheat for seed. Peed -- Amounts of wheat used for feed vary greatly from, time to tirrir Wa 50^ bushels in 1943-44 and arotmd 300 million in each of the other World War II years. In recent PageFh**r years 'we have used about 100 million bushels annually rfor feed. We are likely to use about the same amount in 1954-55. K:;r>orts -- Wp exportted little wheat during Woild War n (too many submarines). For. eight years, after the war, our exports :'ngrd between 300 million and 500 (million« bushels annually.

Add the probable uses of wheat: Food. 4.9ft million bushelsi oo rmmon; feed,^100 million; and exports. 215 million. The total is 870 million bushels, or less than half of the supply on | hand.
