Prevent Accidental Poisonings
Question. What can be done to reduce the number of
accidental poisonings?
Answer. The following precautions, if conscientiously
observed, would drastically reduce the numbar of ac
cidental poisonings in children of all ages:
1. Keep household products and medicines out of reach
and out of sight of children, preferably in a locked
cabinet or closet. Even if you must leave the room for
an instant, remove the container to a safe spot.
2. Store medicines separately from other household prod
ucts and keep these items in their original containers —
never in cups or soft-drink bottles.
3. Be sure that all products are properly labelled, and read
the label before using.
4. Always turn the light on when giving or taking
medicine.
5. Since children tend to imitate adults — avoid taking
medications in their presence.
6. Refer to medicines by their proper names. They are
not candies.
7. Clean out your medicine cabinet periodically. Get rid
of old medicines by flushing them down the drain, rins
ing the container in water, and then discarding it.

DON'T GUESS
General fertilizer recommen
dations for corn production are
500 pounds of 6-12-12 or 5-
10-15 per acre just before or
at planting. Then apply 60 to
j 80 pounds of nitrogen per acre
as side dressing. For best re
i suits, however, the county
agent recommends fertilizing
I according to soil test recom
। mendations.
Good preparation of corn
I soil will give a better stand
and requires less cultivation,

War Declared
Against R.D.
America’s number one dis
; abler and time-waster, and its
fourth largest cause of death,
is on the defensive at last.
For the first time in history,
' a broad-scale campaign is now
1 being waged to alert the public
I to the meaning of RD--Respir-
I atory Disease. RD, a group of
I ailments ranging from the
: common cold to such grave |
i disorders as tuberculosis and
I emphysema, not only puts |
more Americans out of action;
for more days each year than
any other class of disease, but
accounts for nearly one out of
every 10 deaths in the United ,
i States.
The National Tuberculosis
Association, which inaugurated
the drive in collaboration with
more than two thousand local
affiliates throughout the nation,
prints out that forms of RD—
illnesses that affect the breath
ing apparatus—have a rela
tionship to tuberculosis. Chron
ic respiratory diseases include
not only TB and emphysema,
but such serious ailments as
pleurisy, chronic bronchitis,
. asthma, lung cancer, and cer-
I tain fungus infections of the,
lungs.
1 In addition, acute respiratory
diseases such as influenza and
pneumonia, while less danger
ous in themselves than in for
mer times, can break down
I resistance and help inactive
tuberculosis germs cause active
disease.
Chronic cough, and shortness
of breath that occurs for no
evident reason, are the com
monest warning signs of RD.
And to alert all people to the
significance of these warnings,
the motto employed by your
tuberculosis association in its
educational drive is: “If you
have chronic cough or shortness
of breath, you may have a
Respiratory Disease. Don’t take
chances. See your doctor.” The
intensive drive, lasting from
May 1 through June 15, will
be followed by a sustained
year-round educational camp
aign on RD by Christmas Seal
Associations here and in other
communities.
An emergency food stockpile
to carry you and your family

Soybean Insects
Some of the most common
insects of soybeans are corn
earworm, velvetbean caterpil
lar. and other caterpillars.
Dusting with 15 to 20 pounds
of 20 percent toxaphene or ten
percent DDT will give control.

Lesser corn stalk borer at

seasons. For control apply 15
pounds of five percent aldrin
