Pollution fighters have hazards
Pollution is poisoning the
planet. But fighting pollution
sometimes has built-in hazards.
Ontnefirst Earth Day in April
1970, for example, a group of
Students in Delaware, Ohio, swept
out debris from an old bird roost
near the school. Two weeks later,
one-third of the teachers and
almost half the student body-354
young people, in fact—were
either in the hospital or sick at
borne, Their symptoms?
Coughing, headaches, vomiting,
muscle aches, chest pains, and
poor appetites.
The sudden onset of symptoms
resembled influenza. Tuberculin
skin tests were taken because TB
was also suspected, The final
diagnosis was histoplasrhosis, a
disease of the lungs that can
mimic TB but is caused by
inhaling the fungal spores in
airborn dust, The disease is not
spread from man to man but by
breathing in dust contaminated by
bird or 'animal droppings.
Not all the 354 stricken
students had swept out the
droppings, though. How had they
contracted the disease? A smoke
bomb was finally used to show how
the dust kicked up by the cleaning
had spread through the ventilating
system into three large
classrooms.
Most patients recover from the
disease without serious
complications; `But the infection
from the fungus also can spread
from the lungs to almost any other
area of the body, including the
liver, kidney, heart, or brain.
This can cause the organs to
enlarge, fever to rise, or it may_
cause anemia—a disease of the
bone marrow that affects the
blood.

diseases, check with, your local
Feed dealers should be refused
quotas to produce eggs, according
to a statement released last
Wednesday by the Executive
Committee of the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture.
"Unscrupulous feed dealers
are trying to buy up egg laying
facilities," the statement
continues, "now that the Ontario
Egg and Fpwl Producers!
Marketing Board has improved
egg prices and a quota scheme is
being developed."
The federation statement says
feed dealers who buy buildings,
should be refused quotas,
In an interview, federation
President Gordon Hill explained;
"Farmers lost millions of
dollars during two years of
disastrous egg prices," he said
bitterly. ...Many sacrificed
thousands of productive birds in a
recent slaughter program to
reduce flocks.
"Farmers should get the
benefit of market improvement,
not feed dealers."
Hill referred to the report of
the Royal Commission enquiry
into the egg industry. "Judge
James Ross recommended that
access to the market be given to
individual producers, rather than
to feed companies," Hill said.
"The federation shares that view,
"The new quota allocation
committee must ensure that agri-
tuberculosis, and respiratory
.disease association. It's a matter
of life and breath.
business firms are kept out of the
egg business," Hill insisted,
The federation statement also
recommends government
guaranteed loans so egg
producers can escape the
clutches of farm supply firms.

Food safety tips
for summer picnics
For food spoilage bacteria, life
egins at 40 deg. (above refrig-
?rator temperature). At room
emperature, bacteria grow and
'eproduce best. Unless food is
ieated past 140 deg„ they will
:ontinue to grow. Food may look,
aste, and smell safe, but still
)ffer a possible hazard,' say Food

Beef producers in Ontario, both
rge and small, are alarmed and
smayed at the recent request by
alter Miller, Tara, Ontario,
ice-President of the National
armers Union, for a ban on the
e of diethylstilbestrol (DES).
Said Harvey Davis, President
the Bruce County Beef
provem ent Association,
arden of Bruce County and
ighbour of Mr. Miller, "A
emendous disservice has been
ndered to the many farmer
eders in Ontario and Canada as

r. Miller. Farmers are very

ackaged foods will he safe to use
ong past the recommended
torage time but they will
leteriorate in flavor and texture.
t's a good idea to date grocery
ackages and make a point of

The recommended storage life
[Or staples and packaged goods
varies with the product and the
conditions under which they were
shipped and stored. Some retain
top quality for six months, some
for one year, and others for
longer. All packaged foods should
be kept in the original sealed
cartons until opened. Then, they
should be put in airtight
containers.
A year and a half is the
suggested storage time for
products such as baking powder,
unsweetened chotolate, gelatin of
all types, casserole mixes, hot
roll Mixes, and instant potatoeS.
A year is suggested for bouillon
of the product. Through our
provincial Ontario Beef
Improvement Association and
national Canadian Cattlemen's
Association, we know that no
evidence has been documented
which would indicate that feeding
DES to fattening cattle at the rate
of 10 mg. per head per day is a
hazard to public health. To,ban the
use of DES is also unfair to
consumers who would face the
certainty of increased beef prices
with the loss to use of this
valuable production aid."
Mr. Davis concluded by
challenging Mr, Miller and the
National Farmers Union to make
an objective and rational
assessment of the use of DES
before arousing further public
hysteria.

this period of suspension,

chilled or hot (above 140 deg.) to
prevent growth of bacteria and the
hazard that results.
At picnics, take special care
with sandwich fillings of meat,

chicken salads deserve similar
attention. Keep foods cold, using a
