Of course, probably the most i'm

Not everyone can raise chickens.
We are finding the most success

simply doing the thing tha
keeps women living longer thar
men.
Health researchers reported in
the Health Information Founda-
ton publication that one Of the
major factors that continues to
give women greater life expect
ancy is their frequent visits tc
family physicians.
While concrete reasons for the
wen'S failure to consult Their
local physician regularly were
not available, it was pointed on,
that for many men the demands
Of their job made it difficult for
some men to see doctor-or
perhaps serve as an excuse to
keep from seeing one.
Women in the United States
today live considerably longer
on the average, than men. In
1856, for example. the life OK
pCctancy Of females at birth was
over SIX years higher.
In 1856 there were $4,000 ex-
cess male deaths in this country
-S96.5OO deaths among males
compared to 668,500 among fe-
males. according 10 preliminary
estimates by the National Office
81 Vital Statistics. The annual
dif.crCntial has numbered over
100000 since we'll before 1888
and over 100000 since 1850.
It's the male who tends to die
from heart disease. The male
from heart disease is
currently more than twice the
female rate over the entire age
ranges S5-64.
Because Of the Importance of
