Wheat crop affected
by lack of moisture
CI iATHAM - The Ontario +tire;:!
crop has been seriously affected by
the widespread drought experienced
during the month of June. • •
Harvest commenced in Essex
County On- the .July 1st weekend,
which is probably the earliest gener-
alstart-up on record. While quality
is fair to good, yield per acre has
bccn reduced by alx>ut 30r:.
The Ontario Wheat Producers'
Marketing Board, which is responsi-
ble for the purchase and sale of all
wheat marketed by producers, esti-
niates the total provincial crop has.
bccn reduced from a, projected
.9.00,000 tonne volurllc to about
630,000 tonne.
t3ased on projected prices for 1988
crop of about S 170 per tonne, pro-
ducers will lose about 50 million
dollars as a result of the dry wcatlior
conditions.
The provinces 17,000 producers
had been encouraged by signs of
world price improvements which af-
fects about 7(W of their production
through exports. However, the gen-
eral 'yield reduction will.nullify
those expectations.
Glen Courtis, K.R. 4, Wallace-
burg, chairman of the Ontario
Wheat Board, said there is some sat-
isfaction in the recent price increas-
es on the futures market which are
about S37 per tonne over °,:; year
ago.
Ile said the board had made limit-
ed export sales Of new crop but h; .
Sales crews
sound 'exciting'
Sales Crews make the job sound
exciting and glamorous, with an
opportunity to make hit; moncv.
The Better Business' Bureau warns
young people to ask a lot of ques-
tions before signing a contract to
travel with these crews. "If the re-
cruiters arc evasive or fail to give
specific answers to the questions,
you should reconsider", said ilureau
President Jan Delaney.
While there arc legitimate organi-
zations out there, problems do exist
that merit closer scrutiny by both
prospective employees and the pub-
lic. There arc stories of young peo-
ple not being paid but who in tact,
end up owing the company stoney
for hotel and meal expenses: in ad-
dition conipanics have been known
to fine agents for low sales.
Before you sign up, make sure
you ask about food and housing and
not only the amount you will be
paid but the manner in which you
will receive it.
Finally, chcck thc company with
you, Better Business Bureau, both
for a report and suggcstcd questions
you should ask the recruit` r: ,
been out of the market for about six_
weeks in order to get a handle on
quantity and quality of ihc.crop. -
The domestic market consumes
•about-250,(XX) to 300,000 tonnes of
- the Ontario crop annually, and there.
should be ample stocks for -the mar-
ket according to the board's esti-
mates. .
As far as the domestic price is
concerned, Courtis said thc.board
will be setting the price to proces-
sors for August and September
soon, and it is expected there wilt
he little change from the S257 per
tonne .(S7 per bushel) level which
has bccn in effect for over 12
months.
End comes for
two -priced wheat
OTTAWA - For the \\ heat crop
year beginning• August 1, 1988,
wheat will be sold at North Ameri-
can Market prices fur domestic use.
This will end the two -price wheat
system that has been in place for 21
years.
The effect of two -price wheat s) s-
tem ha; varied ower the years, bong

and occasionally, as in the last two
years, a subsidy to fanners. it

Guidelines for children
on video at
GODER1CII - It seems that we
read and hear about cases of the sex-
ual abuse of -children almost every
day in the newspapers or on televi-
sion. The statistics we hear quoted
are frightening: Two out of three
females will be the victims of an
unwanted sexual act and one out of
every three males; in 80% of the
tinge, the assault Will occur before
the person has reached the age of
21. Nearly one quarter of assaults
or attempted assaults on female vic-
tims occur before the child has
reached the age of 11. Over 80% of
the abusers are persons known to
- t►c, child.
As concerned parents, many of us
wain to educate our children about
the dangers of sexual assault to. en-
sure they won't become one of
these statistics. But how do we go
. about it:' blow to we teach' young
children sensible guidelines that
they can understand and use? •
•You can find help with these seri-
ous questions at "your local branch
of the Huron•County Library. A
National Film Board video program
on the prevention of child sexual
abuse called,- "Fccling Ycs, Feeling
N,,: aFamily Program", is now
:lvailabl, .; ,taibrary near you.
Section one of this video is for
parents or teachers and other profes-
"sionals.. It clarifies the -nature and
scope of child sexual assault and ex-
plains the aims and methods of the
program. A booklet accompanies_
thevideo, outlining ways to recog-
nize -a sexually abused child and
what to do if your child tells you s/
he .has bccn-assaulted. Additional
information published by Health
and Welfare Canada is included. with
video package.
The Children's section of the vid-
eo is.aimed at children aged 6 - 12.
It is (1i%'ided into three, clearly separ-
ated,. 15 minutes presentations.
Each' part builds. on and reinforces
the information and skills learned in
the previous part. -
Through the use of 1i'cly music
and skillful actors, the children's
section teaches . skills based on
sound principles of developmental
psychology. The video is intended
libraries
to -be viewed by children in the
conipany of -a supportive parent or
teacher who wilt reinforce the vide-
os positive message.
The first 15 minute segment
teaches children basic skills that
build self-worth and good judgment
- the necessary foundation for self-
protection. They also learn to ap-
preciate and take responsibility for
their bodies. -
In the second presentation, the un-
derstanding of "yes" and "no" feel-
ings is deepened through memorable
skits and the children arc taught •
how to recognize sexual assault by
strangers. Children also learn the
three questions they can ask them-
selves, to ensure their safety, before
the respond to a stranger's request.
Part three discusses the-subject.of
sexual assault by family members
or other trusted persons. Actors
role-play children's responses to
• several common family -member as-
sault situations and children offer
self-help suggestions.
The home use video format al=
lows parents to preview the video
before watching it with their chil-
dren. The parent can chose a quiet
time when the whole fall -lily can
watch and discuss the information
together. The parent can also stop
the tape or repeat segments as
needed. The video format provides
the parent with flexibility in pres-
entation.
"Fccling Ycs, Fccling No" has
been presented to all Canadian pub-
lic libraries by the Canadian Library
Association with the support t,f ,
Health and Welfare Canada.
You can borrow the .video pack-
age at the following locations: the -. .

forth, Wingham, Blyth, Brussels-,

Ask you local library staff about
thc "Fccling Ycs, Fccling No" vid-
eo or for assistance in finding fur-
ther information about the proven-
tion of child sexual abuse.
Health Topics
By: Lynn Garrison
Nutrition Consultant
Huron County Health Unit
The scientific community has not agreed upon an exact definition
of premenstrual syndrome. In general tcrrns, it is a combination of
physical and/or emotional symptoms that occur before menstruation
and disappear or become minimal- during the menstrual period.
Symptoms may include tension, depression, irritability, -fatigue, dif-
ficulty in concentrating, crying easily, aggression, headaches, abdom-
inal bloating, swelling of hands and feet and tender breasts, constipa-
tion, acne, abnormal thirst, and craving. for sweets and/or salty foods.
The cause of F'.M:S. is unknown, but it seems th?re must be more
than one factor involved. Hormonal, nutritional and psychological
factors have bccn suggested. The most commonly recommended
treatment: for P.M.S. include dic:, exercise, vitamins and prdgeslc-
ronc.•
Nutritional recommendations for P.M.S. suffers include: •
*Avoid salt and salty foods. Somc women experience fluid reten-
tion, breast tenderness and weight gain before menstruation. reducing
sodium intake may help in relieving these symptoms. -
*Avoid caffeinated beverages such as coffee, tea, cola and chocolate
drinks. Some Women find that by eliminating caffeine from their
diet, certain P.M.S. symptoms such as breast tcndcrncss, nervous-
ness, anxiety and headaches arc lessened.
*Vitamin supplements shouldn't be necessary if,a well-balanced
diet is being followed. Use vitamin supplements only on the advice
of your physician. Megadoses of vitamins should be avoided since
toxic effects have been reported. -
*Divide the day's food into several small meals spaced evenly
throughout the day. This may help some women avoid experiencing
a shaky, light-headed feeling.
Nutritional changes won't curc P.M.S., hut they can relieve some
of the symptoms associated with the syndrome.
