for every $1 they spent $ 25 in gross business volume and 48 cents in personal income were generated The economists said that people who hunt and fish in North whom we ask Just because people hunt or fish doesn’t mean they qualify as sportsTrue sports-men or sportswomen men take an interest in their sport beyond just the actual act of fishing and hunting They are not just wildWhen life’s fair weather friends times are tough and game scarce due to drought or severe weather they can still be found purchasing hunting and fishing licenses They realize the small fee they pay to enjoy their sport will be used to restore lost wildlife habitat thus ensuring future hunting and fishing Dakota account for $698 million in gross business volume $ 149 million in personal income and about 8470 jobs InUtah in 1991 there were nearly 240000 resident big game permits sold Even if you use the 1986 dollar value and exclude anglers and small game hunters there is still a lot of money being pumped

to treat hay fever according to Dr Rogers is to minimize exposure to pollen He offers these suggestions: Keep windows rolled up when Donna Griffiths sneezed more than times during the first one million year of her is sneezing fit which lasted 978 in January of 1981 days It began and continued through September of 1983 Guess what? It’s hay fever sea- driving Close windows at home and use central air conditioning Central air can eliminate up to 98 percent of the pollen in your home Avoid outdoor exposure during early morning hours and late in the Pollen counts are higher at evening these times If you work in the yard do it in 10 minute segments rather than one continuous period Shower immediately after working outdoors Don’t hang laundry outdoors as pollen and molds may collect in clothes and towels Wear a mask while mowing lawn and wash your hair nightly to remove pollen accumulated during the son again More than 41 million Americans - about one in six - suffer from hay fever every year Statistics for children are even higher about one in five have hay fever Here in Utah there are two major allergy seasons according to Charles Rogers MD an allergyimmu-nologat Cottonwood specialist The first season Murray Hospital runs from through June and the second from August until the first or second frost Pollen from ragweed Russian thistle burning bush and sagebrush is beginning to increase and will continue to be an annoying presence until it frosts Dr Rogers noted Even after a hard frost pollen in the atmosphere will continue to circulate for up to two weeks A single ragweed plant can produce one billion grains of pollen a day day to avoid “It blows great distances” Dr Rogers says “What’s in your back yard is not important it’s what is in the valley as a whole” Samples of airborne There are a variety of medications available for allergy sufferers “Standard decongesare usually tants and antihistamines sufficient for most patients” says Dr Rogers A drawback to these medications is that many cause drowsiness Another treatment alternative is use of steroids This has proven to be effective but must be used ragweed have been found 400 miles out to sea so its easy to understand that pollen originating in Nephi can be found in the Salt Lake Valley is the most common Ragweed cause of hay fever Actually hay fever is a misnomer Dr Rogers says since the symptoms are not caused by hay - and there is no fever The correct name is allergic rhinitis The most commons symptoms include sneezing runny nose congestion itchy nose and throat and watery red itchy eyes More serious complications can emerge from the allergic reaction involving sinusitis nasal polyps secondary ear infection larynx and bronchial tubes and asthma routinely If you are hoping you will grow out of your allergies forget it While some allergy sufferers experience periods of remission allergies is a myth says Dr Rogers Sometimes people who have allergies as children will claim to have grown out of them in their 20s but we often see them back in their 30s 40s and 50s Dr Rogers adds An allergy is the body’s immune harmless matesystem recognizing rials as potential dangerous substances In these cases the body recognizes ragweed pollen as an invader For those who are not allergic the body recognizes the same material for what it is - a harmless organic substance” he concludes Unfortunately nearly impossible blowing pollen is Education in a nutshell witches asked Concord C A schools to ban the story of “Hansel and Gretel” because it is degrading to witches and suggests The that it’s okay to kill them school board didn’t comment 462000 or about 14 of Utah’s population is in school this year A pistol packing student who got an “F” in history three years ago and killed four persons wounded in a California took 80 hostages school The gun wielding old dropout told the hostages that a Crop & teacher had flunked him and that he “wanted revenge” The American of Academy this immuPediatrics recommends nization schedule for children: s 246 ' ""vl and 6 years Polio -
