mentary method could reduce
the amount OF insecticide needed
For example, combination
of physical and insecticidal cor
trolls might be used in such a
way that the chemical would
never be in contact with live
stock or food One such combi-
nation might be a lamp that
would attract flies to an insect
eide placed in a part of the barn

possibility is using a physical
method to reduce the fly popula-

that causes severe pain and
burning in the mouth and
throat. Corrosive poisons are
found in toilet bowl cleaners,
rust removers, drain cleaners,
and household bleaches. If one
of these is swallowed, give milk
or water, one to two cups for
small children and as much as a
quart for those five years and
older.
If the patient has swallowed
a non-corrosive poison, such as
an overdose of medicine, give
milk or water and induce vomit-
ing by depressing the back end
of the patients tongue with
the blunt end of a spoon or your
finger. Also an emitic can be
used, such as two tablespoons
of salt in a glass of warm water.
If the poison was inhaled,
such as from an insect spray,
fresh air is important. Give
artificial respiration if breath
ing has stopped. If the poison
gets on the skin, cleanse rapidly
by drenching with a stream OF
water from hose or faucet. If
poison gets into the eye, hold
the lids open and wash with a
gentle stream of running water.
Delay of even a few seconds in
washing out the eyes may be
serious.
Most important of all in cases
of accidental poisoning is to get
the patient to a physician or a
hospital as quickly as possible.
Almost equally important is to
bring along the container so
that the physician can identify
the poison and thus know how
to proceed with treatment.
Prevention is much easier
than treatment. Examine your
household today for potential
poison hazards to your family
particularly to small children
Correct those hazards and you
can help to avoid serious injury
from accidental poisoning.

Health Hints
POISONs

By The Rural Health Council
of Alabama
Accidental poisoning, mostly
in the home, has become one of
the major causes of accidents
in America, particularly in small
children. This is no wonder,
for a quarter Of a million prod
ucts used in the home and in
industry are potentially hazard
Gus.
To help emphasize potential
poison hazards, the Rural
Health Council Of Alabama Of
fers the following tips:
Keep all drugs, poisonous
substances, and household chem
icals out of reach Of children.
*Do not store non-edible prod
ucts on shelves used for storing
food.
do not transfer poisonous
substances to unlabeled contain
ers.
@Never reuse containers of
chemical substances.
do not leave discarded medi-
cines where children or pets
might get at them.
Never tell children you are
giving them candy when you are
actually giving them medicine.
Read labels before using
chemical products.
'Never give or take medicine
in the dark.
Speed is essential to stop
absorption of a poison. If pos
sible, one person should begin
first aid while another calls
physician. The nature of the
poison will determine the first
aid measures. Save and give
to the hospital or physician the
poison contained with its label
and remaining contents.
Do not induce vomiting if the
patient is unconscious or in con-
vulsions; or, if the patient has
swallowed a petroleum product
such as kerosene, gasoline, or
lighter fluid; or, if the patient
has swallowed a corrosive poison

@. What is the prospect for
the Mississippi pecan crop?
A. From all indications the
pecan crop throughout the state
will be a near record if not a
record production this year. Re-
ports from most of the pecan
producing states also indicate a
large crop in prospect. So far
this year, pecans have escaped
serious damage from insect
pests. Scab disease is less Sc
rious than in most years.
