Fitzgerald reminded farmers that farm storage facility loans are now available for remodeling existing facilities to increase their capacity or ef­ ficiency as well as for building new structures. "Facilities capable of safely storing grain are necessary for the success of the farmer-owned reserve program," the administrator noted "Hopefully producers have already assessed their storage and crop drying capabilities and have made plans to get their cribs and bins into shape if necessary so they can participate in the program It may not be too late for the farm facility loan program to be helpful to farmers who need to improve their storage and crop drying operations " Fitzgerald encouraged farmers to make use of the reserve for their 1977 corn crop "Corn prices have been declining recently, influenced by reports of a record 1978 crop," he pointed out. "More corn going into the reserve would serve to strengthen corn prices to more profitable levels and encourage more orderly marketing of grain Farmers need not accept weak harvest prices if they agree to store their crop under this program " He cited two recent program changes applying specifically to 1977-crop corn and sorghum that give farmers more time to move additional quantities of these crops into the reserve Corn and sorghum loan maturity dates have been extended for 30 days at the producer's option, and the loan program has been reopened through September 29 for those producers who wish to put their grain immediately into the reserve If reserve goals for feed grains are not met from 1977 crops by Oct. 1, Fitzgerald noted, 1978-crop corn and sorghum will be permitted to go directly into the reserve as well "All of these measures emphasize the need for adequate on-farm storage and handling facilities," he said, "and ASCS is ready to help farmers provide for their Z Keepin' Healthy our SOFT WATER RENTAL NEW, FULLY AUTOMATIC WATER SOFTENERS NO installation charge 2 year option to buy with FULL rental fee deducted ONE phone call can answer any questions Phone 312-259-3393 R«nt-a-Soft, a division o* tho Arlington Soft Wator^ompany 216 E.

ENROLLS IN COLLEGE John Cassell, Jr., has enrolled for the first semester at Bryan college, where he is a freshman. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs John Cassell, 200 West South drive. McHenry. The death of a child is always tragic and many parents never fully recover from the loss. The loss of a child through the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), commonly known as "crib death" or "cot death," is, in most cases, doubly tragic. It is doubly tragic, because most parents of infants who die of SIDS suffer severe guilt reactions ' "What did I do wrong?" is their universal reaction. ' The truth of the matter is that these parents did nothing wrong, as SIDS is not preventable; it cannot be predicted, the cause is sti l l unknown: and there is no sound or cry of distress death usually occurs during sleep An infant who dies of SIDS does not suffer, and death probably occurs within seconds Most SIDS victims are bet­ ween one month and six months of age. and. in the United States, approximately 8,000 babies die of SIDS each year It is. in fact, the leading cause of death in infants after the first week of l ife SIDS is at least as old as the Old Testament, and seems to have been as frequent in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as it is now This indicates that new en­ vironmental agents, such as birth control pills and fluoride in the water supplies do not cause SIDS Despite increased attention to this condition in recent years, the incidence of SIDS is not rising Although no one knows what causes SIDS. studies show that suffocation, aspiration (inhaling foreign substances) or regurgitation (vomiting or spitt ing up) are not causes Experts know that SIDS is not a "killer virus" that threatens other members of the family. SIDS can occur in families of every race, religion and living circumstance, and to babies who have the best possible care It has even been known to happen in hospitals to infants admitted for other problems such as minor surgery The experience of putting a happy, seemingly healthy baby down for a nap. and then fin ding the child dead a half hour or so later, is, understandably, a profound shock to the parents and other members of the family. Because there is no apparent cause or reason for SIDS. most bereaved parents experience feelings of guilt , anger, frustration and fear. These emotions are normal and understandable, and parents and families need support from those around them in coping with these feelings Even if the child had been in the care of trained medical personnel, the death could not have been prevented Much research is being conducted to determine the cause of this mysterious con dition In the meantime, it is important that parents of SIDS KnowC> SfHi PAGE 5 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20,1978 victims be reassured that they were not at fault To help achieve this goal, the Ill inois Department of Public Health has not only initiated training programs designed to provide an understanding of SIDS, but is also assisting existing programs which have this same purpose These programs are aimed at physicians, nurses, coroners. social workers, ambulance attendants, police officers. clergymen, funeral directors and others who may be in­ strumental in helping the parents deal with the problem The SIDS project is also working with volunteer groups such as the National Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Foundation and the In­ ternational Council of Guilds for Infant Survival to inform and educate the general public about this condition If you want more information about the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, contact your local health department or write to: Ill inois Department of Public Health.

Springfield, 111., 62761 Y'A mobile vans have logged more than 500,000 miles carrying benefits specialists to veterans in remote areas of the United states Counselors aboard 10 mobile offices have interviewed some 225,000 veterans and dependents since 1972 Why isn't the earth bom­ barded with space fragments, with meteors, etc? Since it is known that such objects fly constantly through space, and frequently strike the moon, why is it they don't strike the earth? Fortunately, the earth's weather problems don't in­ clude the problem of a frag­ ment storm or a heavy fall of such matter. Yet it's true that such metallic fragments crash into the moon. The earth's layer of gases (which is also our weather) saves us from the bombard­ ment. The bombardment actu­ ally exists and meteors and space fragments are hurtling toward us, into the atmos­ phere, constantly. As they reach our atmos­ phere, the friction caused by their exceedingly fast passage through the layer of gases surrounding the earth creates intense heat. The heat reaches such a degree that the frag­ ments and meteors burn up and disintegrate. Man-made space objects are a different subject and this is of concern to the space program today. 1 Discover BEN FRANKLIN We bring variety to life! 50 Count!
