will begin receiving full widows
benefits plus the Iump-sum death
payment.
Now that the starting age for
women beneficiaries is 81 instead
of 65, less time in work covered
by social security may be required
in some cases for a woman work
er to become insured. Generally,
the required time is one-half the
time elapsing after 1850 up to the
time she reaches age 60 instead of
age IS, with a minimum of at least
IL years of covered work. Under
the amended law, a person who
works continuously after 1855 can
become insured with fewer quart
ers of coverage.

women workers because it is i'm

they or their survivors may be alb

Bovine Mas+i+is
Can Be Prevented
BY Proper Care

Farmers can do a better job of
preventing bovine mastitis if they
will abide by sensible and proved
preventive rules, rather than look
ing for a miracle" cure, an ami
NAL health group has suggested.
AS one step to aid in mastitis
prevention this winter, the group
recommended that dairymen guard
against udder injuries by inspect
ing the barnyard and removing
sticks, wires and other sharp OBJ
jects.
Door sills and door approaches
should be kept clear and free of
ice to prevent the COWS from fall
ing or slipping Milking machines
should be properly adjusted and
other milking equipment should be
kept clean and sterlized.
Farmers were also warned a.
gainst rough handling of the cows.
Care should be exercised in using
the milking machine The milker
should be removed as soon as milk
flow stops, to prevent damage to
udder tissue
Another suggestion is for the
farmer to buy only clean, healthy
animals which are
known to be free of mastitis.
Working out a practical con-
troll program with the veterinarian,
is probably the most important
step of all, because this can be a
complex problem and scientific
help is usually important in coping
with it," the Foundation added.
