When hailstones as big as
golf balls fall, as they did
through a two or three mile
wide belt across northern
Lancaster County last Satur
day, crops get hurt. Only one
mile, approximately, separat
ed the corn shown here. At
the left, corn as it should look
at this time of year. On the
right, corn plants of about
the same maturity as they
did look after the bombing
and strafing attack by hail.
One farmer in the area told
us that he picked up hail
stones as big as quarters
twenty-four hours after the
storm, and he wasn’t even in
the area hardest hit.

Health Dept.
Says “Lockjaw”
Easily Prevented
The Pennsylvania Dep air
men t of Health said recently
that tetanus, commonly known
as lockjaw, is a totally un
necessaiy disease today
Through the simple piocess
of tetanus toxoid immuniza
tion (shots), a person can be
piotected against the tetanus
organism And yet, the au
thorities say, thi ee-foui ths of
the people in the United
States are unprotected l
Tetanus is every bit as
much a killer as when it was
first described by Hippocrates
in ancient Greece in 436 BC.
In , fact, it is moie deadly
than cobra venom or strycb*
nine But medical science has
developed two ways to com
bat the poison which may in
vade the body as a result of
tetanus infection
I Preventive method
immunization with tetanus
toxoid,
2 Treatment method
with tetanus anti-toxin follow
ing an injury to one not pio
tected from the disease.
Untreated tetanus is almost
always fatal Even with treat
ment only about half the vic
tims survive, the Health Dept,
says
Too often people will dis
miss an injury saying, '“it's
just a scratch.” However, 50
percent of tetanus cases occur*
as a result of a simple*
wound.
Tetanus, which grows in the
intestines of grass eating
animals, is most frequently
found around hams, farms,
and gardens treated with
manure. But it spreads so
easily that it can be found
anywhere. Farm people espec
mHy may be exposed to tet •
anus at any time, and should
be protected by immunize
don. The basic tetanus toxoid
shot phis 'a (booster shot eve
ry (five to ten years is suffici
ent to combat tetanus infec
tion in minor injuries, accord
ing to the Health Dept. Bui
any wound of a more serious
nature should receive a boos
ter dose at the time of in
jury, unless one was received
inijthe preceding three months.
