FARMING T
NATIONS BIRD MOST
HAZARDOUS JOB

Between $4,000 and $4,000 farm
residents will be killed in accidents
this year if the 1856 death rate
conforms with that of previous
years. Another 100000 or more
may be injured. /.
According to the National Safe
ty Council, farming is the ma
TONS third most hazardous in
dustry, Mining and construction
have a higher rate of work deaths
per 100000 workers, but agricul-
ture has the highest number Of
accidental deaths.
Because farm mishaps tend to
occur most often during late morn
ing or afternoon hours, when
body reflexes are more sluggish,
many safety men recommend that
rural workers emulate office and
factory employees and take brief
coffee breaks about 1890 am. and
$50 pm.
In one nationwide industrial
study, 81 per cent Of the personnel
men interviewed reported that cof-
fee breaks helped to reduce ia
tigue, 80 per cent reported a lower
accident rate.

they kill or disable more school
age children than any other cause.
However, better methods of care
and prevention today bring new
hope for young hearts. Know
ing the facts about these diseases
can spare you needless worry
over your child's health. Here are
the question: most people ask
and the answers you ought to
know.
WHAT is RHEUMATIC FE-
YER? Rheumatic fever is a dis
ease that may affect any part of
the GEOGRAPHICALLY the heart,
joints, blood vessels, skin or
brain. Damage to the heart may
be serious or even fatal, but the
effects on other parts of the body
are usually temporary.
WHAT is
DISEASE? Rheumatic
heart disease is the Inflammation
and soaring Of the heart muscle
and heart valves as a result of
rheumatic fever. This may inter-
fere with the work of the vital
pump" that supplies the blood
our bodies need.
DOES RHEUMATIC FEVER
ALWAYS DAMAGE THE
FOR LIFE? No. Two
out of three rheumatic fever pat
tents get well completely or have
The Omaha guide., 1955-08-05

so little heart damage they a
work or play like anyone else.
WHAT CAUSES RHEUMATIC
FEVER. The immediate cause is
unknown. When rheumatic fever
strikes, it usually follows nose
and throat infections that are
caused by a germ Of the strep-
tococcus family. For example,
"strep" sore throat, tonsillitis or
scarlet fever. Rheumatic fever
often starts about two to four
weeks after the "strep" infection
disappears, but not all "strep"
infections are followed by rheu-
matte fever.
HOW CAN | DECIDE
WHETHER MY CHILD HAS
RHEUMATIC FEVER? Never
try to decide yourself. Let your
be the judge at all times.

Strict Tests Through Every Process
Assure Safety Of SaIk Polio Vaccine

For the first time in history. a
vaccine is protecting millions Of
human beings from paraIytic
polio. While the Salk vaccine
will not work in every case,
American children are being
safeguarded against the dread
disease, with no more risk than
they would take in a vaccination
against smallpox or a typhoid

elaborate tests under the watch

that savings accounts have not

sequences of tightening in credit

DETERMINING GOOD TASTE
Big brewcrics today use more

control the quality of their beer.
Laboratory tests, elaborate ma

rything from the beers clarity
to its ability to withstand long

One thing that can't be meas
ured by machine, however, is
taste. So in most breweries the
master brewer and his expert
assistants spend much time per-
sonally tasting each brew at sew
eral stages of its development.
At the Blatz Brewing Com
