What is that unusual problem? It’s the same in 30 states. We’ve got too many deer. According to Durwood L. Allen, wildlife tech nician, we are holding pur herds at too high a level. We are letting them ruin ranges by overbrowsing, and we are letting thousands die every winter from starvation. Big-game specialists say this is the answer: Kill more deer. Reduce the herds to what winter forage will support. And bucks-only won’t do it. Does and fawns must be taken in many areas. It could be done — except for the well-meant opposition of a host of people who' have not yet recognized the issue: Shoot them and use them ... or let them starve. A deer range is no better than its winter food supply. Moreover, the herd must live on the browse that COMPLETE PORK PROCESSING Lockers -£mgL For JHKST Rent and P Guaranteed Insured CHILLING CUTTING OUT STORAGE SALT CURING SUGAR CURING SMOKING LARD RENDERING SAUSAGE GRINDING AND SEASONING WRAPPING AND FREEZING OF FRESHES colonial FROZEN FOOD LOCKERS Phone 468 EDENTON, N.

If they eat 1 more than that, the range goes down hill. That means a permanent re- < . duction in the capacity of the range 1 to support deer. It takes 30 acres of 1 good land to support one deer for 1 one year. < In the minds of many people the 1 thing to do for starving deer is to ' feed them. That has been tried. It’s no go. Plant winter food? The 1 ' plants are killed before they get ‘ started. 1 Maine and Minnesota are examples ' of states that are doing a good job , of managing their deer. They shoot , both sexes.

More specifically, it is due to defec- , tive metabolism of carbohydrates in the sweet and starchy foods we eat. Carbohydrates supply the body with sugar, which is necessary for heat and energy. Sugar is converted into heat and energy by insulin, which is pro duced in the pancreas and secreted into the blood stream. If anything in terferes with the flow of insulin, the body is unable to use the sugar and diabetes results. Although diabetes is a serious dis ease, it can be brought under control. The earlier the treatment is begun, however, the better are the chances of bringing it undr complete control. People who suspect they have dia betes should consult a physician im mediately and, if examination proves they have the disease, should follow his instructions carefully. One of the first symptoms of dia betes is being unusually thirsty. Un reasonable hunger is another symp tom. Hunger may be experienced by a diabetic even though he has eaten a normal amount of food. Faintness and dizziness are other symptoms. These symptoms are warnings to j the individual to consult a doctor. Ifj the doctor, after an examination j which will include an analysis of the urine and a test to determine the j sugar content of the blood, finds that the patient has diabetes, he will pre- > scribe a special diet. He may also recommend injections of insulin, a -■ drug made from the pancreas of cer tain animals, to supply the deficiency - in the patient’s blood. All diabetic patients do not have to take insulin, ' some have to take it for only a lim ited period, while others may have to take it for years. The patient should follow the doctor’s advice on diet, ex ercise and insulin to the letter and i return for an examination as often as THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. N. C, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1948. the doctor suggests. It is most important for people with diabetes to guard against infection, whether internal or external. Infec tion decreases the efficiency of insulin and can cause serious complications in diabetes. Overweight and emotional upsets should also be avoided. Since knowledge of how to control diabetes has greatly increased in recent years, people with this disease should take a common sense attitude towards it, place themselves under a doctor’s care and follow instructions care fully.

All offices will, therefore, be cl os e from Friday night, December 24 until Tuesday, December 27, so that important business should be trans acted accordingly.
