HAY FEVER IS PREVENTABLE, STATE HEALTH OFFICER SAYS NAME PERSONEL Dr. A. A. Whittemore Points Out That Relief Is Readily Obtainable : | Hay fever is preventable and relief! from its symptoms is readily obtain- able, Dr. A. A. Whittemore, state health officer, said in a weekly health article issued Tuesday. “Perhaps no other one disease in the whole category of medicine phys- ically incapacitates more people in season, and is less serious from the standpoint of life and death, than hay fever,” Dr. Whittemore said. “The bureau of preventable disease of the state department of health often receives inquiries at this time of the year, especially from -hay fe- ver sufferers, asking where tney can go or what they can do to get rid of their ailment. “It is difficult or impossible in many instances to give definite an- swers to such inquiries for the very good reason that what will afford relief for one sufferer will not relieve ; another. “True, hay fever comes at about the same time each year to the same individual. hyper-sensitiveness. of the mucous membrane of the eyes, nose and throat of some persons to pollens of certain grasses, weeds, plants or trees.. In - many cases asthmatic! symptoms are produced which may! come from contact with certain ani- mals, absence of which gives relief. Actual contact with the animal may not be necessary as it may be pro- duced by cat or hog hair in the dust of the house or barn. Contact with parrots has been known to produce @ similar condition. General Belief Refuted “Contrary to general belief, roses are not usually responsible for hay fever because their pollen is heavy and therefore not widely scattered. For the same reason pollen from orn and golden rod is probably not responsible for many cases. Pollen from timothy, Kentucky blue grass| , and red top is said to be the chief offender during the early. summer months. Occasional cases are caused by that of other flowers and plants. Later“in the season the pollen from weeds, . particularly the rag weed, horse weed and Russian thistle, has been shown to be the usual cause of the disease in this state. In cities and towns pollen producing plants and weeds grow most often on va- cant lots, hence it would be well to i the weeds cut down on all such ts. “A hay fever sufferer can obtain relief by taking a trip to a locality where the particular pollen which affects him is not prevalent. “It is now possible to determine just what pollen is responsible for a case of hay fever by a simple skin test which any physician can administer. Once the cause is found an extract of the offending pollen can be secured and treatments given by a physician to prevent hay fever.. This is brought about by the pollen extract desensitizing the in- vidual to the pollen in question. As it requires some three or four ‘Associated Press Photo George R.

Such a device/ protects the intake of air so that all Pollen is filtered out. With such an arrangement , one may remain at home during the hay fever seafon with practically no symptoms of hay fever. In other words, one has suf- ficient tolerance for pollens so he can breathe polluted air except dur-| ing working and sleeping hours with- out producing symptoms. |. “Although this method of relief or treatment is relatively new, it is no| doubt the coming treatment for hay fever, and it is pointing the way for! the conditioning of air in all places! where we live and work.” ——. iT At the Movies | = _—_—_— PARAMOUNT THEATRE !

The Chicago quotation for September wheat, which is winter wheat, was 49 cents on @ recent day, on which the Min- neapolis September spring -wheat quotation was $6 5-8 cents, or 17 5-8 cents higher. “The comparisons of the 1931 and’ the 1930 total combined spring and durum wheat crops for the four states also, in thousands of bushels: * 1930 1931 (Act.)

B. Field, chairman of the Beulah Wednesday in a letter to the Bis- marck Tribune. : ‘The wheat production curtailment) in Mercer county, however, is de- pendent upon the federal farm board’s acceptance of the Beulah club's curtailment . The Beulah plan, submitted to Governor! George F. Shafer a short time ago, is similar to the Walla Walla plan.) Under its provisions, farmers would buy wheat from the farm board at a Price not to exceed 65 cents per bush- el, f. o. b. terminals. ‘The farm board would! pay storage until July 1, 1932, In return the farmers would agree to take out of production a stipulated acreage. The farmers would give their notes, due July 1, 1932, in pay- ment for the grain. The Walla Walla plan provides for sale to farmers of surplus wheat held by the board, the farmers agreeing in their turn to take out of production an acreage large enough to produce @s much whaet as they purchase. This plan has received widespread publicity and has been presented to the farm board at Washington. Petitions now are being circulated among farmers in Mercer and Oliver counties for large wheat acreage re- duction, dependent upon the board’s acceptance of the proposal, by the Lions club committee. A county-wide organization in Mer- cer to back the program will be com- pleted in a short time, according to Field, who says ‘that President Hoov- er is considering the Beulah proposal.
