suggested that you wash the affected part
with laundry soap and tepid water. If rubbing
alcohol is available apply this after the soap
and water and rinse with clear water. Gala
mine lotion will relieve the itching and a light
dressing should be applied until you can get
your doctors treatment.
SOMETHING IN YOUR EYE
If a stray gnat ICONS into your eye, don't
do the instructive thing which is to shut the
eye. Safety instructions advise that you hold
the eyelids open and press gently above and
below the eyeball This should bring a rush Of
tears TO wash out the eye But if it doesn't
work. wash the hands carefully with soap and
water and draw the upper lid down over the
lower-a trick probably familiar to everyone.
Roll the eyeball around and let go Of the lid
If this fails the next step is find doctor
Don't ask well-meaning friend to dig it out
If no doctor is available quickly experts
advise putting generous amount of boric acid
ointment or plain vasene never carboated)
in your eye as a soothing lotion.
GENERAL SAFETY HINTS
After using Paris Green or other poisonous
insecticides be sure to scrub the hands with
soap and water, and don't let any garden
chemical get into open blisters or cuts
Remembering TO take it easy and do a little
work each day instead Of pitching in and try
ing TO do weeks wedding hoeing and plant
ing in few hours, is an important all-sum-
mer rule. Even when long unused muscles get
limbered up there is no use to give them undue
punishment during a frantic weekend of
struggle among the cabbages and tomatoes.
when an hour or two each night could get the
same job done with ease and comfort Never
rush through a big dinner before your daily
stint in the garden-a light meal is much bet
ter before such work.

BACKACHEs AND STRAINS

Since most gardeners have been on the job
for several weeks now, it is supposed that
many of them have learned from painful eX-
pericnce that it is important TO get all muscles
used 10 working a little at time. But many
may still be laboring along at a disadvantage
because they don't know how 10 handle their
garden tools well or use the right muscles
for certain jobs
Strains from lifting can be avoided by squat
ting and letting arm, back and leg muscles
pull together as you hoist the object. Trying
to do the job merely by STOPPING over employs
muscles that aren't built for weightraisng
and may be injurious.
good general rule is 20 assume natural
and comfortable positions in handling all i'm
plements but any novice may collect dividends
in back and muscle ease if he or she gets a
little advice on how 10 hold that hoe rake or
spade from an experienced neighbor or gar
dcner
Hot baths, alcohol rubs and continued work
in the garden are recommended Cor getting
rid Of ordinary soreness and stiffness but if
any unusual strain is felt consult your doctor.

SUNSTR0KE

This is quite different from heat eXhaus-
ton, but not likely to happen unless one is
foolhardy about staying out in excessive heat
Symptoms Of sunstroke include a dry skin
that is hot to the touch red face, high fever
dizziness, a raging headache with shooting
pains in the head, and loud, hard breathing.
If you should encounter a case of sunstroke
in one Of your gardening pals move him to a
cool, shady spot. Remove all but a thin layer
of clothing. and lay the victim on his back,
keeping head and shoulders raised, Put ice or
cold wet cloths on his head. Cool the body too,
with water wet cloths but avoid shocks

able 20 drink give him cold but not ice water
DO not give any stimulants and be sure to call
fora physician Immediately.
INSECT BITES
No garden would be garden without bugs
and in their place many of them arc useful
because they eat other insects which are
predatory 10 plants Wasps and hornets belong
TO this class and will not sting unless fright

share of policing your garden against worm
and bug enemies, too

Applications of bcarbonate of soda, or per
