Prevention of heat exhaustion
and sunstroke for farm workers is
more important than ever before
with the critical need for food
supplies. 'The National Safety
Council states that the application
of simple safety practices may
bring a reduction
as it has done
recent years.
According to
exhaustion and
entirely different things, although
both may seem to result from the
other. With heat exhaustion the
patien’s skin is cold and clammy
while with sunstroke the skin is
hot and dry.
A simple rule may serve as a
guide and avoid confusion regard-
ing the treatment. Briefly it is
this: If the patient is cold, make
him warm; If he is hot, make him
cool.
The following measures will help
prevent heat exhaustion among
farm workers; Drink cool water
and lemon or other citrus fruit
juices, avoiding alcohol and ice
water. Eat vegetables and light,
easily digested foods. Wear light,
loose clothing; avoid over fatigue;
bathe daily; get plenty of sleep.
Replace body salt lost through
perspiration by salting food, drink-
ing salt in water or by taking salt
tablets . . . about eight 10-grain
tablets daily.
Sunstroke results from prolonged
exposure to the rays of the sun. I
Consequently, it is advisable to
keep the head covered with a
broad. brimmed hat and the body,
including arms and legs covered
with light loose-fitting comfortable
clothing.
In sunstroke cases move the
patient to a cool, shady spot, re-
move the clothing and then place
him on his back
shoulders raised,
cloths to the head and cool the
body gradually with a cool bath.
Call a doctor as soon as possible
and administer cool drinks (not
cold) if patient is conscious.

The early crop Irish potatoes
now abundant in local markets
can be of paramount value in fill-
ing the gap caused by the world
shortage of wheat and wheat
products, says Nick R. Owen, coun-
ty agent.
In urging housewives to serve
this seasonally abundant food more
often, he said one small serving of
potatoes can replace a piece of
bread in well-balanced diets. In-
creased use lessens demand for the
plentiful processed foods and
makes it possible to release greater
supplies for famine stricken coun-
tries abroad.
Mr. Owen said that while early
potatoes doubtless would be wel-
comed by peoples abroad, their
low keeping quality makes it im-
practical to ship them. Those spoil-
ing in transit wastes valuable ship-
ping space which could have been
filled with wheat and other foods
of good keeping qualities, he added.
“Even if they will not stand up
under long hauls, we can consume
.greater amounts here at home as
an alternative for the more readily
exportable cereals, he explained.
Through the latter part of June,
production is expected to reach
52.OCO.COO bushels. Based on cur-
rent crop conditions, the total
crop in early commercial areas up
to Sept. 1 may establish an all-
time record as high as 70 to 75
million bushels.
