Show THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1972 THE MANTI MESSENGER THE EPHRAIM ENTERPRISE Care for Your Heart as Well as Your Gun As the annual deer hunting season fast approaches, the Utah Heart Association reminds hunters to Take even better care of your heart than your gun." The Heart Association warns that middle-age- d and older men should be careful not to over exert their hearts. Most men in this age group have not conditioned their hearts to take the extra strains and burdens placed on the heart at higher altitudes and colder weather. Getting into condition for the abnormal demands of the hunt is Imperative if the hunter doesn't want to wind up among the all to familiar seasonal statistics that report more hunters dying of heart attacks than of gunshot accidents. The thrill of the hunt need not be linked with heart attacks for either the normally healthy man or even one who has a THE LAZY S CLUB, the Agriculture and Rodeo Club of Snow College, has elected their new officers for the coming year.

It wasnt made with commercial fertilizer and cow manure, but only with the leaves that have fallen over the years. The past few years I have watched people here in the county burn their leaves in the fall and as soon as spring rolls around they head for the hills to get some mountain soil for their flower beds. Now this really doesnt make much sense when you can take your leaves, grass clippings, garbage, and other organic material and turn it into rich loamy soil through the simple process of composting. 1. Get a piece of chicken wire, two, three, or four feet high and long enough to make a circle big enough to accommodate your accumulated organic materials through the summer and leaves in the fall. 2. To make fast acting compost it Is necessary to use some kind of high protein meal, such as dehydrated alfalfa, soybean, cottonseed, or bonemeal. Use one pound of meal for each bushel of organic material. Commercial fertilizer will not work. 3. Put In a layer of leaves, and a thin covering of meal, and moisten each layer thoroughly. Most failures result from material being too wet or too dry. It should be moist but not soaked. 4. Pull center of pile to sides, leaving center low. Press to compact the outer edges, but never compact the center. The composting process depends entirely on meal, air, and moisture contacting completely as possible all the material being composted. Dust entire surface with meal. 5. If pile Is correctly made, the temperature should reach 140 to 150 degrees within two or three days. Turn pile In about a week, making sure you place outside, dry material in center. If material seems too dry, moisten slightly, and the heating process will start up again. Compost Is ready to use when pile stops heating in about two or three weeks. NOTE: If you just want to take care of your leaves in the fall, put them in the wire mesh container, throw a little manure on each layer, wet thoroughly, leave center low so as to collect rain and snow, and just forget about it until spring, or just add next years leaves to It and use whenever you want. It makes better mulch If it Is stirred or turned once CONCERNED FOR PROGRESSIVE A hunter who follows these simple rules and common sense has an extra argument on his side when his wife gets that hurt look of temporary widowhood in her eyes.

We need to improve our outdoor living space, and one of the major efforts the past few years has been to reduce open burning trash, garbage, weeds, leaves, and other waste products. Fall is here and the leaves are beginning to pile up on the ground. Most people look on them as just so much trash, to be gotten rid of anyway you can, but the energetic individual who Is looking ahead to next years flower or vegetable garden, these leaves represent a real bonanza. Next time youre up In the mountains take a good look at the dark rich soil under the heart condition. Both can go and enjoy the outdoors if simple precautions are taken beforehand. The first move should be to consult the family doctor. The doctor will specify Just how far you can go, taking into consideration the terrlan, the altitude, duration of the hunt, and the patient's attitude.
