Contrary to the popular belief, the winter months- which often bring three or four-day spells of bad weather -are not the greatest produc­ ers of moisture. In most parts of the country nature has provided us with a water supply that arrives in close harmony with the needs of crops. For example, the amount of precipitation usually begins to pick up in early spring, when things have been plant­ ed, and increases until about June, or even July, in some cases, and then tapers off. This fits in nicely with the needs of growing crops, most of which are harvested in the months following peak rain­ fall., UNDERSTANDING DRUG ABUSE a health column from the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration U.S. Department of Health.

Like Many, Betty Ford Became Overdependent on Drugs Betty Ford, overly depend­ ent on alcohol and a prescrip­ tion drug, is like millions of other women in the United States for whom these drugs have become a problem. A report from the National Institute on Drug Abuse de­ scribes such overdependence by women on prescription drugs and alcohol as reaching "epidemic" proportions. According to the report: • Many women use and/or abuse more than one pre­ scription drug; • Sixty percent of psy­ chotropic (mind-altering) drugs, 71 percent of antidepressants, and 80 percent of ampheta­ mines are prescribed for women; • Eighty percent of women alcoholics in one study reported that they used other drugs as frequently as alcohol, making mul­ tiple drug abuse and cross-addiction a signifi­ cant problem among women; • Middle-age, middle-class women are susceptible to prescription drug abuse with medications pro­ vided to help them cope Eighty percent of pre­ scriptions for mood-alter­ ing drugs are from in­ ternists, general practi­ tioners, and obstetrician- gynecologists who have no training in psycho- pharmacology; • Up to 60 percent of those who seek psychological assistance for depression have alcohol problems One in three of them is a woman; • Half of the 10 million Americans presumed to be alcoholics are women. These and other findings support the fact that millions of women across the country, like Betty Ford, may misuse legal prescription drugs and alcohol, the report says. Muriel Nellis, who coor­ dinated the study across the country, said that women tend to believe that if a drug is prescribed for them, it is good for them. "They don't ques­ tion the doctor Their attitude is that the doctor knows best. Women are not given enough eyeball supervision by doctors or pharmacists." she said. The new study was critical of the tendency of physicians to "help" women by prescrib­ ing tranquilizers or sedatives "By allowing automatic re­ fills or renewing prescriptions over the telephone, depen­ dency is encouraged Warning is rarely given about the haz­ ards of using multiple drugs and in combination with other substances," the report found While Betty Ford openly ad­ mitted that she was over- dependent on a combination of drugs, many women-- perhaps the majority of those who abuse drugs and alcohol -are "hidden," according to the report, since so many are alone throughout the day " SATURDAY-SUNDAY OR MONDAY PRIME RIB of BEEF AU JUS Special *695 Includes: Our famous Salad Bar, Choice of Potato, Soup or Tomato Juice, Mini loaf of Bread and Butter. yrr\ TRY OUR FAMOUS SALAD BAR FOR LUNCH MONDAY thru FRIDAY STEAK HOUSE fC.
