lodine is important

By PATRICLA M. BRAMAN Extension Agent Home Economist lodine is one of the few nutrients that produces deficiency symptoms in humans as a result of deficiency in the soil. Indiana is included in the “goiter belt” due to our lack of iodine in the soil. Although the total amount of iodine in the body is very small, it is found in every living cell. Most of the iodine in our bodies is found in the thyroid gland. When iodine is lacking in the diet, the thyroid gland overacts to compensate for the deficiency and enlarges. This is known as simple goiter. People meet their needs for

Ornamental plants suffer extreme damage

Ornamental plants have suffered extreme damage due to the winter’s severe weather and frigid temperatures. Purdue University horticulturist and nurserymen are reporting a large number of dead trees and shrubs throughout the mid-west. The damage to the ornamental tree and shrubs, which include both deciduous and evergreens, are the result of three causes — the record low temperatures, dessication or drying out during the winter and the low soil moisture in some locations. The damage seems to be most severe in narrow and broadleaved evergreens planted on sandy soils and exposed to the chilling drying winds. Homeowners will find the most damage on last season s wood. The older growth may also be frozen back. On some broadleaved evergreens, foliage may have dropped off. but many of the growing buds seem to be alive. Winter Burn Azaleas and rhododendrons bave suffered winter burn to foliage and much stem splitting. They will have few flowers, if any. this year. Flowering of other shrubs will also be affected, the

Swine pseudorabies meeting set at Tippy Valley on Monday

iodine through food and water sources. Near the sea coasts the soil and water are richer in iodine. The best natural food sources are seafood and produce grown in iodine rich soil. We Hoosiers need to be conscience of our daily need for iodine since our soil is low in iodine content. In order to decrease the incidence of simple goiter it was decided to fortify foods with iodine. The problem was to find a food that was universal. Table salt was chosen as the most practical medium. By using table salt you will meet your iodine requirement. The use of iodized salt is the best way of assuring an adequate supply of iodine.

crabapples may bloom, but some forsythias are not likely to. In some areas the soil temperature was only 19 degrees fahrenheit, eight to nine inches below the soil surface. At this low temperature the roots of many plants are killed. Cotoneasters planted last year will not survive at these low ground temperatures. Damage will probably show up later on other plants when weather warms. Where there was snow cover, mulch or both, damage to plants may be less. Girdling Rabbits and mice damaged many plants during the extended snow cover by girdling the young trees and shrubs. Homeowners are cautioned not to be too hasty in replacing damaged plants. One will not be able to determine the damage until the weather warms up and plant growth begins. After spring growth is apparent one should prune out dead and diseased branches. Try to prune the plants back to their natural shape. As the ground thaws out ornamentals should be watered, especially those planted in droughty locations where buildings prevent rain reaching.

and Dr. L. J. Runnels, Purdue extension swine veterinarian, will head the discussion. There are presently many rumors floating around on the effects of the disease also known as "Mad Itch." This meeting, being sponsored by the Kosciusko County Pork Producers Association, will attempt to bring together people who have firsthand knowledge of the disease. All area pork producers are welcome.
