Beat The Iron Blues
Recent nutritional
studies of teenagers have
found their diets limited
in several vitamins and
minerals. One of the most
common is iron.
During adolescence the
amount of blood cir
culating in the body in
creases on the average of
about two and a half to
three liters tor both boys
and girls. It is critical to
maintain a good iron
intake so this blood
develops properly.
Iron is vital. With the
help of copper, iron
combines with protein to
form hemoglobin.
Hemoglobin Is a
remarkable compound in
your blood that carries
oxygen to all the cells in
your body, and returns
carbon dioxide to the
lungs to be exhaled.
Since boys usually
consume large amounts
of red meats and other
foods contributing the
minerals, like certain
vegetables and enriched
bread and cereals, they -
in most cases - get
enough iron in their diet.

Good News, Farmers
Here is some good news
for farmers who are
planning to buy irrigation
equipment.
Information 1 received
the other day from Ed
THE HOUSTON HOME JOURNAL, THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 1978
to 1:30 a.m.
Sept. 4: Mini-Music
Festival, Smith
Recreation Center lawn,
1 to 5 p.m. Rock and soul
groups to perform.
With teenage girls it's
another story. For
them, iron requirements
are higher and more
critical. They experience
a loss of iron every month
during menstruation.
At the same time, the
teenage girl should be
trying to build an iron
reserve for increased
needs when she marries
and becomes pregnant.
During pregnancy, the
hematologic picture often
suggests an iron
deficiency. Common
interpretation is that
dietary iron is in
sufficient to meet
demands of pregnancy
and that bone marrow
iron reserves are either
absent or inadequate to
maintain normal
hemoglobin levels during
pregnancy.
For the teenage girl or
the pregnant woman, it is
almost impossible to
obtain enough iron
without a carefully
planned diet, or by
supplementing her intake
with nonfood iron
sources.
Brown, Extension
economist and farm
management specialist,
says "irrigation equip
ment used exclusively for
irrigating farm crops
grown for sale is now
exempt from state sales
tax." Ed said the change
in the law became ef
fective on April 1 of this
year.
No doubt about it - this
exemption can mean
substantial savings for
farmers who purchase
irrigation equipment. On
the purchase of $50,000
worth of equipment, for
example, the saving
would be $1,500 in
counties with a 3 percent
sales tax and $2,000 in
counties where the tax is
percent.
Fill Out Form
In order to secure the
exemption, according to
Ed, the purchaser and the
dealer must fill out and
sign Form ST-FM 1. This
form is used for claiming
the sales tax exemption
on various items of farm
machinery and equip
ment, and farm equip
ment and irrigation
dealers should have
copies of it. If they don't,
copies can be obtained
from the Department of
Revenue, Sales and Use
Tax Division, Trlnity-
Washington Building,
Atlanta, Georgia 30334.
As we said, this is good
news for farmers, and we
hope any in Houston
County who purchase
Irrigation equipment in
the future will be sure to
claim the sales tax
exemption. It can add up
to a real saving.
