Prospects For
Greater Milk
Consumption
Is Increasing
“The prospects fox greater
consumption of milk look bet
ter every day in light of what
scientists aie finding among
other food items that are con
sumed by the public ”
John C York, geneial man
ager- of Eastern Milk Produc
ers Cooperative Association, to
day alerted both dairy farm
eis and consumeis alike that re
cent findings by the Food and
Diug Administration point up
the need of real wholesome
food The recent announcement
of cyclamate possibly being
haimful to the health of om
nation, is only one of many de
velopments that has shaken the
public’s condifence in synthetic
and unnatuial foods
“All of these conditions have
cieated a health conscience na
tion which inevitably, will sin
gle out milk “the most peifect
food” as a health pi elective
food item
Accoiding to Mi Yoik cer
tain piofessional membeis of
the Amencan Heait Association
question the need of dietaiy
changes, loweung cholesterol
level and the effect of exeicise
in diminishing one’s usk of
heait attack Many scientists be
lieve that accumulated fats
which clog aiteues and cause
heait attacks can be manufac
tuied by fatty stieaks in the
aiteues themselves
“Coionaiy heait disease is
rate in many countues wheie
people live on a high staich
diet In New Guinea, foi exam
ple, diabetes and high blood
sugar are also rai e.
“Theie is stiong evidence that
caibon monoxide in the blood,
caused by cigaiette smoking,
and the stress and stiain of liv
ing in todays’ society may be
pnmary factors in the cause of
heait disease
‘‘Let those of us in the daily
industry, who are bent on mak
ing substitutes, answer the ui
gent need of the consumer. That
is, instead of competing against
fiesh whole milk, let us fui
nish these people with this
“woild’s most pei feet food” in
its natuial foim as a health
commodity

Three Western Counties
Skunk rabies has been preva
lent in eastern Ohio in the past
several yeais,
This fall there aic indications
that rabies may be moving east
ward into western Pennsylvania
Rabid skunks have been found

According to Dr. Sam B Guss,
Extension vetennaiian at Penn
sylvania State University, rabid
skunks usually act abnormally.
They are often found ambling
about in the daytime and they
may be quite fuendly and un
afraid. The saliva of perfectly
normal-looking skunks may con
tain much more rabies virus than
that of dogs dying of rabies
Skunks found around buildings
01 livestock should be destroyed
and buried Those who trap
skunks should handle them with
extreme care. No baby skunks
or pet skunks are ever safe to
own

not be taken lightly. Any unvac
