Hines, Jr. * Fellow of The Academy I of General Dentistry Missing Rear Teeth If all of the rear teeth in one side of your jaw are missing you may opt for a partial denture instead of a span of empty gum. Your dentist will have to rely on your front teeth for support in making such a partial denture. He’ll also have to make maximum use of your gums and supporting bone to give the denture stability. Even though this kind of partial denture is not as stable as the kind that is affixed to supporting teeth on both sides of a tooth void, it is certainly preferrable to the alternative of full den tures. The remaining natural teeth can con tinue to provide strength in chewing food and help maintain the shape of the face. Without the help of "We Cater To Cowards” fDR. A. F. DOWNUM, JR. J OPTOMETRISI Improving Your Vision If you have 20-20 vision and can see perfectly well all of the time, no matter how close or far away an object may be, you’re one of the lucky ones. You’re also lucky if your jot doesn’t require perfect vision. Things may be different at home when you’re trying to fix something and need the ability to see things close up especially well. Or if you have a bobby, such as needle work, that would be almost impossible to do well without accurate vision. Or if you like to read for long periods of time without suffering eyestrain or fatigue. In some occupations, perfect vision is essential. Surgeons and airline pilots can’t afford to take chances either. At least I hope not.

It is advisable to ask the physician who prescribes medication how heat exposure will affect the body. Medication for high blood pressure, ner vousness, depression, poor circulation or sleeping problems can cause com plications and even death when the patient is exposed to various degrees of heat. Warning signs in your body take the form of physical and mental changes. Most people feel hot, uncomfortable, and notice a lack of energy or loss of appetite during hot weather. These are mild danger signs. More serious signs are dizziness, rapid heartbeat, diarrhea, nausea, throbbing headache, dry skin, chest pain, weakness, mental changes, breathing problems, vomiting and cramps. Older individuals should pay attention to these early warning signs of heat illness because heat stress can be fatal. There are facts about heat that everyone should know Temperatures above 90 degrees can be very dangerous, particularly when the humidity is also high. Crowded living con ditions increase this danger. A sudden increase in temperature can cause problems because the body is unprepared for the strain. People should take steps to lower their body heat if they begin to feel hot and uncomfortable. Heat stress can cause many medical problems including heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and heart failure. Proper precautions can make a person more comfortable, prevent illness, and perhaps save his life. The best way to keep cool is to observe a few safety rules such as staying in cool surroundings that have fans or air conditioning. Air movement reduces heat stress by helping to lower extra body heat; however, when it is very hot, a fan may cause a rise in body heat by blowing hot air on the body.

The messages bacxcd up efforts of the U.S. Govern ment in seeking solutions to Japan’s trade restrictions and the European Com munity’s subsidy practices that undercut U.S. farm commodity sales. It is important to remember that the American public also has a big stake in expanding farm trade. For example, agricultural trade not only creates jobs in this country, but continues year after year to contribute a surplus to our balance-of-payments, helping prevent further erosion in the strength of the U.S. dollar.

Deere & Company unveiled a new line of John Deere farm tractors Sunday that it says will enable a farmer to do his wort; faster yet use less fuel for each acre worked. The company introduced 10 models, the largest number of new models it has ever introduced at one time. They range in size from 45 to 190 horsepower. They were shown publicly for the first time at the National Corn Growers Association con vention. The company said field tests have shown that the new tractors will use as much as 15 per cent less fuel than their predecessors for each acre worked, depen ding on the conditions and type of work being per formed. Most of the improved fuel economy will come from a combination of mechanical front - wheel drive and a new 15 - speed power - shift tranmission which makes it a simple job to keep in the proper gear. The front - wheal drive is available on all models and power shift on the five largest.
