Whon the number of red blood cells or the amount of hemoglobin in the blood falls below normal, the condition is called anemia. The disease appears in different forms, the most serious of which is pernicious anemia, states the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society in HEALTH TALK. Actually anemia means too little or too poor blood. Frequently and sometimes erroneously poisons who appear pale are considered anemic. Pallor does not always mean that a disease of the blood is present. It indicates, as far as the blood is concerned. only that the quantity of blood flowing through the tiny vessels of the skin is light, whether due to anemia or other disease, or whether entirely normal for the individual. Blood consists of a pale yellow liquid (the serum) in which are suspended millions of tiny greenish disks, called corpuscles. When charged with hemoglobin, these corpuscles are red. Between four and six 'million are contained in each cubic millimeter (one l.'i.OOOth of an inch) of blood. White corpuscles in the same quantity normally total between 6,000 and 10,000. Men have a slightly greater number of red corpuscles than women and any slight fluctuation between the two standards of both white and red corpuscles is considered normal. There are about 333 million red blood corpuscles in a drop of blood. Blood cells are formed in the bone marrow, especially in the ribs, backbone and flat bones, in babies the marrow of all the bones takes part in building blood. When the corpuscles are mature, they enter the blood stream and by means of the hemoglobin with which they are loaded, carry oxygen from the | lungs to the rest of the body. Hemoglobin is an iron-containing pigment which has a strong attraction for oxygen. Anemia develops principally fi-om loss of blood due to the inward or outward bleeding, from some injury to bone marrow halting the production of cells, from the failure of .cells to ripen for conveying oxygen, or froifr deficiency of iron, or from malnutrition. The disease is so variable in different individuals that each must be studied carefully to determine the exact reason for the condition. Victims of anen?ia are ordinarily not aware of the symptoms in the early stages. As it develops, however, the individual notes loss of energy and constant fatigue. As the reserve stock of iron is used Up, the nails become tender, brittle flattened or indented. The hair becomes dry and frequently prematurely gray. « Other manifestations are^ a soreness in the mouth, burning sensation of the tongue which often becomes quite smooth and deep red in color. As the condition progresses, pallor and weakness are more apparent. There may be shortness of breath, indigestion or constipation. Persons with a suggestion of these symptoms should consult a physician so that steps can be taken to ascertain the cause. Iron added to the diet, either by itself or with other metals, such as calcium, cobalt or copper, liver extract and folic acid, according to the type of anemia found, may help relieve the condition. To be anemic is to be without Zest and energy and to stand in the shadow of death. Primary or simple anemia can ordinarily be eorrvctftfi easily. It is unwise to carry on in a run-down state. If voil're tired all the time, see your physician. Let him take a blood count. This test will determine whether anemia is present. MINE OUTPUT The shipping mines of Illinois produced 3.191.235 tons of coal during May. according to the state Department of Mines and Minerals. This is 416,846 tons more than the Output for the comparable month last year, and the highest tonnage for the month of May since 1951. The May, 1955. output came from 38 strip mines which turned out 1.322,177 tons, and 55 shaft mines which hoisted 1,869,058 tons Buy U.S. Savings Bonds MORE MKAT • ; Farmers this year wiH • produce and sell approximately 1^.8 billion pounds of beefi 855f ittore® than from the years 1935-39, just before World War H.
