From The Farm Adviser Desk PESTICIDES & SPRAY EQUIPMENT Homeowners and farmers, have you cleaned your spray equipment and put your pesticides in a safe place? The need for pesticides or any other sprays is about ended for 1968. Take time right now to organize a storage area for pesticides, so they are out of the reach of children, pets, and livestock. Thoroughly clean all spray equipment. Leftover pesticides can be buried. DO NOT pour them down your home sanitary system as they will contaminate creeks and streams. Containers of pesticides kept over for 1969 should be well marked aqd in good condition. A.I. SIRES University research reveals some dairymen could improve production efficiency three times as fast by making greater use of the good A.I. (artificial insemination) sires available to them. Dairymen who use bulls known to transmit production below breed levels are not realizing the production and income possible. Excellent A.I. bulls with a. highly reliable plus Predicted Difference can increase your milk production and profits on your herd replacements.

And heed the advice to swimmers, for it usually isn't cramps but heart attacks that cause drowning if you swim hard on a full stomach! Send for the booklet below! By - George W.Crane, Ph. D...M.D. CASE G-561: Nora T., aged 28, is a high school teacher. "Dr. Crane", she began, "I have a class in Hygiene and one of my students asked a puzzling question. "She wanted to know if it were really possible for a person to die of fright. "In other words, in the absence of apoplexy or a coronary attack, can fear itself stop the heart?" FEAR FATALITIES The vagus nerve runs to the heart from the brain and apparently can completely stop the heart, just by terror or panic! Dr. Jftewart^JVoif^d^rector NORTHERN STATE CHORAL TO OPEN SEASON SEPT. B The Northern Illinois Choral association will begin its official season on Monday, Sept. 9, at 7:30 p.m. in the choir room of Crystal Lake Community high school. The meeting will be an organizational as well as a working rehearsal, and details of this season's rehearsal schedule, membership requirements and concert plans will be announced at that time. In a departure from previous years, the association will present a program of operative choruses and scenes, ranging from "Old favorites" to contemporary, at its December concert. Mrs. Russell T. Griffith, musical director of the chorus has announced that any interested singers are welcome and men, particularly tenors, are especially invited. 0 Rehearsals will be held Monday evenings, 7:30 to 9 p.m. at the high school. of Neurosciences at the Oklahoma Medical Research foundation recently stated: "Sudden death may be due to . . .overwhelming or sudden fear". Then he mentioned that in four out of every five snakebite deaths, there isn't enough snake venom to cause death in those victims! They must have been terrified till they died of fright. Perhaps you will recall the story of the merchant who fled from ancient Damascus because the "Black Death" had struck there. While he trudged along the highway he met a stranger, and they conversed until time for lunch. As they prepared to dine together,, the merchant finally asked the stranger's name. ^ "I am Black Death," the latter replied. "Oh, go away from me at once," shouted the merchant, "for you have just killed 50,000 people back in Damascus!" "Not so", protested the stranger "for I killed only 1,- 000. It was fear that killed the other 49,000." Along this same line of thinking Dr. Wolf reports as follows: "Drowning victims often are found with no water in their lungs. "The patients just died of a turned-off heart as a result of fear or panic." Many drownings also occur because of an abnormal load on the heart, following a heavy meal. If your auto starts up in high gear on a hill and you do not shift to a more powerful gearc you know that it may finally stop, just due to lack of power in the cylinders. And that same thing canhap^* pen to your heart. For there is terrifically greater work load placed on your heart after you have eaten,,a "hearty meal". If you also have a much higher carbon monoxide content of your blood, due to cigarette smoking, and if you don't breathe evenly, because you are not an accomplished swimmer, then your heart may stop right ta>thj^jmdWdlejrfjiM^ as did your automobile on the MIL People with damaged hearts and thickened walls of their coronary arteries ( which are the sole vessels that nourish the heart muscle) are doubly susceptible to death via drowning. In your auto while climbing a hill, you can shift to a lower, more powerful gear, but your heart does not have such a neat set of gears. It does have a margin of safety but when the load is too great then it stops at once. Anybody who smokes, thus hampers Ms heart in these three ways: (a) by zooming the carbon monoxide in h|s blood; (b) by thickening the vessel walls, thus narrowing their diameter; and (c) by racing the heart as much as 20 beats per minutes!'
