PAGE TWO Machinery Shields NeededJor Safety Much Easier to Be Safe Than Sorry Says C. ~ W. Overman There is no excuse for not keeping’ power take-off and other farm ma chinery shields in place, says C. W. Overman, county farm agent for the State College Extension Service. It is much easier to be safe than aorry. The National Safety Coun cil reports that too many farmers leave their shields in the implement Shed or misplace them entirely. Farmers who do not have standard power take-off hitches or shields for old tractors, should consult their lo cal implement dealer. Hitches and adapter packages for power-driven im plements may be obtained from deal ers representing the manufacturer of the implement. The best shield that can be made gives no protection if it Is not used. For new farm equipment, manu facturers are providing non-remov able power take-off shields to help protect the operator against his own negligence. The non-removable shields, may be opened for servicing and in spection of the power shaft. Most of them are built with a loop around the pipe connection between the uni versal joints or otherwise, permanent ly attached so they cannot be removed entirely. If the drive is in use, the shields stays with it. Don’t overlook the smaller shields provided for fans, chains or gears. See that all shields are in place be fore an implement is taken- to the field. When working without shields, the stakes are high, and when you lose it is too late to make amends. f I Vets Question Box Q —l am a disabled World War II veteran. If I get VA’s approval, may I still start vocational training under Public Law 16, or did the cut-off date of last July end my chances for taking the training? A—ls you meet all requirements, you still may begin training under Public Law 16. Under the law, you may start at any time, so long as you can finish by the program’s wind-up cm July 25, 1956. The July 25, cut off date applied only to training un der th9 GI Bill, and not under Public Law 16. Q—My wife and I are both World War II veterans. We want to open a dress shop with the help of a GI business loan. May we both use our loan guarantee privileges together? A—Yes. However, your total com bined guarantee may not exceed 50 per of the loan. sAAelt-V KENTUCKY "JUd gilwMf WHISKEY pint JUjBL. A BLEND '.4/5 QT. h »"• SCHCWLEY WSTILUERS.

The fact is that TB is spread from person to person—it is not inherited, nor does it flare up suddenly without source or cause. Germs which cause tuberculosis, known as tubercle bacilli, are spread primarily by people. There was a time when a great deal of tuberculosis in this country had its source in infect ed cows, whose milk infected those who drank it with TB. Although tu berculosis in cows has not entirely disappeared in the /United States, the danger of human infection by contami nated milk has been reduced to two disease-fighting programs: The test ing of cattle for tuberculosis and the pasteurization of milk. Although we have made great strides against TB since the turn of the century, we have no cause to re- Now Taking Orders FOR HOME MADE CAKES AND HOME MADE SALTED NUTS Mrs. J.B.

J Tuberculosis kills more people in this country annually than all other in fectious diseases combined, and it leads the causes of death from disease among young people between IS and 35. One of the reasons why tubercu losis continues to be a serious public health problem is the fact that it is communicable —that people who have the disease can pass it on to well people. Moreover, a person can be in contact with tuberculosis without re alizinz it because TB has no obvious symptoms in an early stage. There are an estimated 600,000 people in this country with active TB, only half of whom are known to health authori ties. The overcrowded living conditions, especially since 'World War IT, are also well known to us. Individual I homes are largely disappearing in the SINGER SERVICE New Machines—REPAlßS—Used Machines Free Estimate On Repairs or Trade-ins Free Demonstration on New Machine Or Vacuum Cleaner YOUR LOCAL REPRESENTATIVE: MR.

Over crowded living quarters make fertile ground for the spread of TB. The individual has, of course, little control over crowded living, working, and traveling conditions these days: But he can keep a check on the health of his own lungs, and give himself the best chanoe of finding tubercu losis, should it strike, in an early stage. This is ipoewflWe when he gets a chest X-ray at least once a year, as part of his complete physical exami nation. For the chest X-ray can de tect tuberculosis even in an early stage, before the outward symptoms of the disease appear. Minutes Os Board Of Public Works! Edenton, N.
