The room was filled to capacity with friends honoring V. Allen Olson on his retirement from Farm Bureau after 20 years of service. Hundreds of things could be said about him, all of them compliments and all of them true. But hundreds of messages never could . say what the block said that your county made for the souvenir quilt. Every block was outstanding and told its countys own story. The blocks were set together in pale green and quilted by Elda Hillyard and women from Cache County where Allen first started his Farm Bureau career. The quilt will be a real treasure Com fhrf When Food Shopping Sensible shopping makes . cents is a good motto to keep in mind whenever you are shopping. It seems especially true when all of us are trying to feed families within our food budget And comparison shopping makes sense.

High Cholesterol May Reduce Heart Disease and women with high cholesterol levels in their blood have a much lower amount of heart Men cholesterol, some research shows. This was the report of a prominent physician and nutrition authority at a recent national dairy industry .gathering. Speaking at the annual meeting of the National Dairy Council, Dr. Laurence M. Hursh cautioned the dairy leaders that your very survival as an industry is being threatened. He was referring to criticism of milk by some scien- tists. ar Bureau. Good News for Dairymen: Physician Finds disease than those with less John Datt, AFBF official, wiU explain recent developments in national Farm Bureau policy Conference. issues at Mid-Ye- Services for the Utah Farm Dr. Hursh, who is Director of Health Services at the University of Illinois, referred to one theory that milk might have something to do with heart disease. It is quite dear to me (in a study done at Massachusetts Institute of Technology by Dr. Robert Lees) that women with a cholesterol level of 279 have a much lower amount of heart disease than those with cholesterol levels of less than 180. Likewise, men between the ages of 50 and 62 with a cholesterol level of 259 have a lower amount of heart disease than those with a cholesterol of 199, the doctor continued. This is just the opposite of what the American Medical Association and the Food and Nutrition Board have dedared recently. Many sdentists assume that higher levels of cholesterol in the blood indicate heart disease and that saturated fats such as milk and meat raise cholesterol in the blood. In Dr. Hurshs opinion, it has not been proven that cholesterol in the blood of most people can be . lowered by substituting unsaturated fat for saturated in the diet. But it has been demonstrated, he said, that many people can reduce their cholesterol levels simply by reducing their weight. September 1, 1973, is the time for Utah's new safety law to go into effect. It requires all vehicles travelling on a highway at 25 miles per hour or less to display an SMV sign on the back.
