Extension Comments (By G«org* J. Young, Extension Advisor, McHonry r County, University of Illinois Tax Workshop Everyone is interested in Form 1040's bottom line when it comes to income taxes. But for persons just beginning to figure taxes, the bottom line is "learning how". The University of Illinois Cooperative Extension service is offering a five-day workshop for persons who have had little or no experience in preparing income tax returns for others. The workshop will be held Oct 19, 21, 24, 26 and 28 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. over the TeleNet system in the Woodstock office. For registration and details, call 339-3737 or 4747. Farm Injuries A recent Kansas State university survey shows that, for the amount of time a farmer spends on it, the combine is the leading cause of farm injuries. Nearly one-half of all accidents noted in the survey are caused by combines. Moving parts, farmer fatigue, and anxiety during the crucial harvest season all play a part in making the combine a hazard. Pulleys, sprockets and gears are prime places for hand injuries. And the necessity of climbing a ladder to get on a combine increases the possibilities for falls. Because most combine accidents result from falls, wear boots, or shoes with nonskid soles during harvest season. Fall Forages A dairy cow's fall diet probably lacks phosphorus, although pastures and green chopped forages including at 50 percent legumes will provide plenty of calcium. Dairymen can feed mineral supplement containing at least 15 percent phosphorus to compensate for the deficiency. A com­ merc i a l l y -mixed mine ra l providing a ratio of no more than two parts calcium to one part phosphorus works well if it contains adequate phosphorus. Phosphorus mineral can be added to the grain ration at the rate of about one pound per 100 pounds grain. Producers can offer additional mineral free- choice outside. It is essential to provide free-choice mineral if producers limit grain fed to dry cows and heifers. Dicalcium phosphate with trace- mineralized salt is a good all- purpose mineral combination for dairy use. The dicalcium phosphate contains 18 to 20 percent phosphorus and up to 25 percent calcium. The trace-mineralized salt and dicalcium phosphate mix can be included in the grain ration or fed cafeteria style. In the grain mix, include one pound of each mineral per 100 pounds of grain. Review Pesticides The U.S. Environmental Protection agency will begin reviewing risks and benefits of p e s t i c i de s co n t a in in g "nitrosamine" impurities, considered possible cancer agents. The review will begin by Oct. 1, EPA officials announced, and does not mean the products will be automatically withdrawn from the market. Illinois farmers should be aware of the proceedings because one of the products is Treflan, a widely-used herbicide produced by the Elanco division of Eli Lilly company. Others are Trysben 200 and Benzac 1281, industrial weed killers made by DuPont and Amchem Products, Incorporated. The nitrosamines occur naturally in air, soil and water. They also occur in pesticides as a result of manufacturing processes or from chemical reactions. Most human exposure to them comes from cigarette smoking or eating cured meats, like bacon.

I>> JOSKPII COOLS vl a / l i (Editor's note: This is the forty-fourth in a series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community Mental Health center staff. This article is "Coping - Type A' Per­ sonality.") Due to an increase in in­ cidence of heart disease, researches have attempted to identify as many causative factors as they possibly can. They have found that diet, heredity and physical con­ ditioning all play an important part in development of certain types of heart disease. They also found that they were able to predict with amazing ac­ curacy which people were most likely to develop heart disease by examination of their life style or "personality." Not surprisingly, they found that individuals who were under a great deal of stress were most likely to develop heart disease. What was sur­ prising was that the individuals involved were under a peculiar kind of stress: a stress that was self induced. That is, in many ways the individual himself almost purposely put himself under unwarranted stress. Furthermore, the stress appeared to be related to time. The heart attack-prone people tended to be very time con­ scious, were always placing themselves under a deadline and always appeared to be rushing to appointments and overscheduling themselves to the point where every minute of the day was occupied. It ap­ peared as if not one single moment in the day could be wasted. If a client or customer was late, it could ruin the entire day and put the person under unbearable stress. Even during leisure time the so-called "Type A" personality felt a time pressure. To be late for a golf date would be un­ thinkable; and every moment of leisure time must be planned out and executed to the minute. Even when their schedule appeared to be going smoothly, the "Type A" personality person would almost always be thinjung of the next activity. Wi th t h i s s e l f imposed pressure day after day, year after year, it is no wonder that the "Type A" personality seems especially prone to heart disease.
