CassCiry High School Principal Dorland K u n t 7 . announccd Friday t h a t t h i s
year’s class boasts a whopping 13 valedictorians - all
straiehi-A students - and 2
salutatorians. whosc gradc
point averagcs total 3.977.
Having rnultiple valedictorims is a trend seen in a number of school districts, includinp Cass, City, for sev-
cral years. The trend has
sparked somedebateoverthe
type af grading system that
should be used to determine
a class’s top students.
Supt. Ken Micklash said
Cass City still uses the oldfashioned 4.0scale. which
does not take into account
plusses and minuses. Using
a scale that incorporates
plusses and minuses would
likely reduce the number of
valedictorians, he said, but
Cass City graduates have
proven time and time again
that they earned thc honor.
In fact. school officials have
conducted studies tracking
former honor graduates,and
those studies revealed a majority of past valedictorians
continued to excel academically as they pursued college
degrees.
“I guess thar’s what it’s all
about,” Micklash said. “I’d
rather be concerned about a
lot of kids doing well than
doing worst‘.
“We’re all happy for them,”
he added. “They’re good
kids .”

Not all of us are conccrncd about those snowflakes that
come trickling down after the warm days that we all cn-joycd
in early March.
Art Battel wasn’t complaining a bit. This spring has hcen
like two seasons in one, he grinned. Battel was referring to
the collection of sap for maplc syrup. The alternate cold and
warm weather keeps the sap running. It’s a great year in the
sugar bush .

There’s still time to get tickets for the annual Chamber of
Commerce dinner Saturday night starting at 6 : l S at
Northwood Meadows.
The dinner is highlighted by the selection of Junior Citizen of the Year and Citizen of the Year. Tickets arc $ I5 each
and are available at all local banks and the Charnhcr of
Commerce office in the Municipal Building.
**********
The Chambcr banquet is one o f a recent flurry of dinners
designed to raise havoc with all of us who watch the scales.
Before the Chamber dinner Saturday the Methodist Church
had a soup and sandwich lunch. That’s tine. But i t also had
homemade pies and a bakc sale. Not so fine if you want to
put a lid on the calories and aren’t able to rcsist the goodies
offcrcd.
Following the Methodist lunch was the dinner Sunday at
the high school.
Capping it all this coming Sunday is the annual turkey
dinner at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church which comes
complete with another of those very tempting bakc sales.

The person responsible for the bcncfit positively did not
want hcr namc used in the story about thc bcncfit banquet.
So wc didn’t. You won’t find Janice Winters’ nainc anywhere

Safety Continues To Be A TOP PRIORITY
A very similar article was published last year for your review, but because of the imporancc of this topic, I wish to run it again.
The primary function of our school district is to provide the best educational opportuniies possible for our students.
Our district has a detailed District Crisis Communication Plan which provides valuable
information if we ever have to deal with a crisis such as: accidents in school, threats, gas
leaks, medication overdoses, power failures, fires, explosions and a variety of other issues. The plan, which includes all of our buildings floor plans, has been given to the Cass
City Police Department, Tuscola County Sheriff Department and Michigan State Police
Department in Caro.
The crisis plan has been shared with all building principals who have reviewed it with
staff. In case it would ever be necessary to evacuate our students to an off site location, we
have agreements with various comniunity facilities to do so. The evacuation plan includes students from every building in our district. Staff in all buildings have been informed of codes which direct them to take certain types of action in potentially dangerous
situations. Additionally, an emergency only, telephone has been linked from each classroom to the building office, which is to be used only in the case of a 911 emergency.
Should we ever have a crisis to deal with, the superintendent’s office would serve as the
communication center. The Village of Cass City has agreed to allow us to use the rnunicipal building as a secondary location for communications.
In addition to these plans we feel other procedures, programs and activities our school
have in place are of equal or even of greater importance when promoting school safety.
For example, our district has been promoting the concept of character education. For the
past five ( 5 ) years our staff members have been emphasizing the following character education building blocks with our students when appropriate: Respect, Responsibility, Trustworthiness, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship.
Student council activities, at all levels, have emphasized good citizenship traits. Treating others the way we want to be treated has been and will always be an important rule in
which to live by. Our students are reminded of this regularly.
The Natural Helpers Program, which has been in place for several years in the high
school, has helped train many staff and students with how to be good listeners and how to
help others with problem solving and conflict resolution.
The middle school has had the student responsibility program in place for the past few
years. This program encourages students who have made behavior errors to think about
what they did wrong and develop a plan to help avoid making poor judgment decisions in
the future.
The high school has incorporated a similar approach into the in-school suspension program. The in-school suspension program provided students the opportunity to remain in
school while serving suspensions, which have resulted from disciplinary infractions. Developing a corrective behavioral plan is also incorporated into this program.
Additionally, our district employs two (2) guidance counselors and two( 2) social workers who help students with current problems and provide guidance with decisions that
affect their future.
Good schools provide a caring and safe environment, with structure in which students
can learn. The Cass City Public School District has top quality schools that provide this
type of setting.

The investigation began
Oct. 3 1 , 1996, when Sanilac
C o u n t y S h c r i f f ’s de p u t i c s
invcstigating a complaint o f
horses running loose discovcrcd that the 75-acre farm on
Argyle Road had been convcrtcd into a sophisticated
marijuana growing and processing opcration. Thc OL*ciipants of the I’iirtn had dready Icf‘t thc area prior to the
arrival of police.
Thc wbsequent invcstigation led drug task forcc officers 600 miles south
through Ohio and into south
central Kcntucky, where the
farm’s rnanagers and inarijuana growcrs lived. The
trail then led 600 miles southwest to Evansvillc, Ind.,
where the farm’s owners
wcrc discovered to be largescale distributors of marijuana in the Evansville area.
During the investigation,
officers learned that the farm
was purchased bq the Indi-
ana men in February 1995
and was immediately converted into a large-scale marijuana growing/proccssing
operation.
More than 14,000 marijuana plants were grown and
processed in I995 and nearly
19,000 plants were grown
and processed in 1996. The
work was completed by
about 15 migrant workers
who were housed and
worked in the barns during
the height of the operation.
Gray said all of the marijuana was transp,orted back
to Kentucky and Indiana for
wholesaldretail distribution
ip those arcas. The high potency marijuana was sold by
the distribution organization at prices ranging from
$1,600 to $4,000 per pound
based on the quantity purchased. The group is helievcd to have generated several million dollars in sales
proceeds during its 2-year
operation.
Puhl ic institutions, large
and small, have a similar
u h arac t er i st i c . Me i n hers of
thcsc boards want to makc
i m port an t dcc i si on s away
from the public eye.
In small towns for sure and,
for the most part. in larger
citics members of thexc
hoards are people that have
experienced success in thcir
fields of endeavor. They arc
used to making decisions
with no need for public discussion.
The open meetings act has
helped keep the avenues of
communication open to the
people who arc paying thc
hill.
In the days before the law
was passed, good people
went to extreme lengths to
keep the facts and the decisions hidden. I can recall 2
more blatant cases in Cass
City when hiding decisions
was not illegal. First a couple
o f more recent cases that appeared in the ncws last week.
Remcmber, thc cussing canoeist who was convicted
under a 100-year-old statute
for using the language i n
front of women and children
after he was dumped in the
Rifle River 4 years ago‘! His
co nv ic ti on was overt ur ncd
by the court of appeals, but
thc fret: speech controversy
has had a beneficial cffect for
residents who live by thc
river. It’s been yuicter and
folks using the river have
been more respectful to the
rights of private owncrship.
A school hoard in Livonia,
according to a story i n thc
Detroit Ncws, is being sued
by a group over the salc of
2.7 acres to a developer to
build 12 houses. The dissidents say the board was in
violation o f thc open mcctings act 9 times.
Rcpardless o l the outcome
it is ccrtainly bad public Iclattons that could hc avcrtcd
i f the board brought this issue befiw the voters in opcn
sohion,

could t1ap11cn today. R e mcmhcr. ioo. that the people

doing it a s a public service
with the best o f intentions.
To keep the press away, for

where many ol‘thc issues of
the day wcrt: scheduled.
Whcn parking meters wcrc
authorized thc board held a
special, unannounccd meeting to vote them i n and the
vote was recorded with one
negative ncvcr revealed
vote.
It might have been better to
gct i t out in the open at a
rcgular meeting and hear
from those who thought it
was a bad idea and with our
changing busincss conditions have proved to hc right.
It might be hard for board
members to takc the heat at
the time, but public involvement almost always forms a
stronger bond with whatever
public institutions these
elec 1 officials represcnt.
”
It’s always fun to rcad about
the days whcn farming was
done with horscs arid mules.
Fanners were quick to switch
to tractors whcn they had the
chance, but they kncw thc
cold steel of the tractor would
never replace the flesh and
blood personality of thc old
workhorse.
Those of us who were born
too late to witness the cra of
the horse will remcmber the
old tractors had some personality, too. Every farm had
several tractors when I was a
kid, and each had its own
little quirks.
Many of us learned to drive
on a Ferguson, and these tractors certainly had a mind of
thcir own. The Ferguson was
small, but it could get a kid
in troublc if he didn’t remcmbe r i t s sh o r t co in i n g s.
There were foot brakes on
both sides of these little
beasts and a foot clutch on
one side. I suppose a person
who had three feet could
push all three pedals at once,
but the rest of us had to settle
for jumping on the clutch
with one foot and a brake
with the othcr.
This would stop the tractor
on the level, or on a hill if
you weren’t pulling a load.
But with a heavy wagon o r
implement behind, a 90pound kid was like a flea on
a trampoline as he tried to
exert enough forcc on thc
brake to stop the tractor.
So wc had some cxcitcment
ahead i f we were going
downhill, or thrills bchind if
going uphill. Farmers tried
t o put most of thcir buildings
on the high ground to keep
the kids from crashing into
thcm with the Fcrguson.
I drove an old Oliver during my teen years, and this
one had some drawhacks.
too. If you tirrncd the whecls
of thc Oliver rc;d short and
thcn hit something solid (like
thc cdgc of ;i furrow) the
stccring shal‘t would pop out
ot‘ position.
That rncani I h x l no steering and pl-ohably stinuld
stop thc tractor fairly soon.
Ollic and I took out a tcw
fcnce posts that way.
My ,brother's John Deere
“B” was the most f u n to
drive, because i t was fast. We
would hook the “B” to a rotary hoc, put ‘er in fifth gear,
and R-r-r-o-o-o-om!
The old John Deere had a
problem i n the cylindcrs,
Mental
Health
Problems

by Roger Pond
causing it to spit little flecks
of oil from the exhaust. The
exhaust was on top of these
tractors, right in front of the
driver, so the kid driving the
“B” was pretty well oiled by
the end of the day.
We didn’t care, though. That
film of oil, mixed with sun
and dust, produced one of
the nicest tans you’d ever
want to see.
My dad bought a John
Deere “60” about the same
time my brother had thc “B”.
The “60” developed a glitch
i n the hand clutch that
caused the clutch to re-engage if you pushed it too far
forward.
I learned this while pulling
a hay n ~ g near
m the barn. I
can’t imagine why a barn
needs all those little pieces
of wood along the corners,
anyway.
My least favorite tractor was
our old Allis Chalmers. The
Allis was fine as long as you
kept i t running, but if she
died, the driver spent the rest
of thc day cranking. My
brother, Jim, was the only one
who could crank the Allis
fast enough to start her when
she was hot.
Jim is one of those people
who can upload a wagon full
of hay in about 10 minutes.
If you make him mad, he can
do it in two minutes.
That Allis made him niad
nearly every day.

~
As children, most of us probably learned all of our
prayers, as we would say, 4Lbyheart,” We memorized them, but probably without fully understanding the meaning of all the words. As children grow
older and continue to say their prayers, hopefully
the meaning of the words will become more clear to
them. However, because we are so accustomed to
simply reciting memorized prayers as children,
we often do not reflect on the meaning of what we
are saying. When we pray, we should truly understand our prayers and not just move our lips and
go through the motions. Our attitude should be
one of love, trust and respect for our Heavenly
Father. Praying memorized or spontaneous prayers
from the heart is well-received, and we should realize that when we are praying we are in the presence
of God. The Bible tells us that our Father in Heaven already knows what we need even before we ask Him, and
also that we should be forgiving of others so that our
Father will forgive us. When we pray, it is for our benefit,
and when our prayers are meaningful, we are returning
God’s wonderful love.

This is the version that the
House approved and sent to
the Senate. The amount is
not the $415 the unions
were aiming for, but something their flier did not mcntion is that not all unemployed workers would received that amount.
To qualify for thc cntire
benefit an employee must
make inore than $19.50 an
hour, so i t is unlikely thc
fuzzy math shown on the

I also found the flier’s claim
that local businesses were
k i n g hurt by the unemployment hcncfit increase very
interesting. One of the prini ary c h al I c ng c s Icg is I at ors

Recall petition
cally business owners thrcatened by violence, riots in the
streets, and stop light traffic
h a m d (no enforcement).
“Insensible - “If’ the mayor
cannot perform his duties, hc
must bc: rcmovcd from office;
Wc truly must find soiiiconc
who c i w s about Gagetown,
Michigan”; and “Mayor
said, ‘You do something
about I[’.’’ (ruferring to .the
rc \ po n w Cou 1 IC r c I ai nis tic
rcccivud when he confrontcd
Wright about youths fight\
in thc villiigc).
Wristit said ~ o u l t c ‘ r ’ s
claims are unfounded.
“Thcrc’s nothing to it. It’s
all the stuff we’ve (village
council) been working on,’’
he added. “I really don’t
want to say a wholc lot about
it right now.”
Coulter welcomcd the delay i n his petition, saying it
will give him more timc to
register voters, which he
plans to do at his business
and by going door-to-door.
Thc dclay, he said, also gives
the council “S months to do
something about the village.”
Provided Coulter does refile the petition, the first step
in the process will be a clar-
i t y hearing, according to
White-Cormier, who cxplained a panel composed of
herself, county treasurer and
probate judge will review the
petition language. The review does not involve determining the merits or truth of
the claims, she noted.
Coulter will then have 90
days to collect the needcd
signatures - equal to 25 percent of the number of residents who cast ballots in the
most recent gubernatorial
election, she said.

MY KNEES USED TO
PUT A DAMPER ON
MY LIFE.”
a *
In the past year, my knees have put a damper on my
life. I’ve been unable to walk long distances, do lawn
care, feed the animals or even have a garden. The pain
had increased to my ankles and the end to walking was
fast approaching. I knew a total knee replacement was,
the only answer.
A friend of mine recommended Dr. DeSantis to me.
After one visit, I was ready for my knee replacements
and the stralghtenlng of my left leg.
Dr. DeSantis had explained t o me that my knees had
no more cartilage and it was bone on bone. That is why I was In so much paln. Due to the knees being so bad, my leg
was sticking out by about four inches.
One month after surgery, I was walking a half mlle and couldn’t believe how fast I had recovered. That’s when I s a t
down and figured out why. I was in a win, win, win sltuation. I had lots of progress and a certified massage therapist
(Nancy) who worked on my knees prior t o surgery and Increased the clrculatlon and flexibillty of them. Then I was
given t h e opportunity t o see Dr. DeSantis who gave me the gift of walking wlthout pain again and the ability to do the
things I love. Last of all, I had a physical therapist (Jenny WQlte) who worked with me after the surgery. I’m walking 3/4
mile and getting stronger each day.
Thank vou t o all who have helDed me be able to walk again without pain. Dr. DeSantis, you did an excellent job of
‘lurgery and I will strongly recommend you to all. Again, I am so pleased.

thc Tuscola Intermediate
School District’s Health Education Department. The
prtsject addresses the levels
of obcsity among youth.
The percentage of children
and adolescents who are
overweight has almost
doubled since 1980. About
1 1 percent of youths are now
overweight, a condition that
puts them at risk for high
blood pressure, high cholesterol and high insulin levels.
They are also more likely to
become overweight adults
who are at increased risk for
heart disease and diabetes.
Because behaviors are often established in childhood,
school officials are striving
to promote healthy behaviors by giving kids the
knowledge and skills to become healthy, productive
adults.
Robert Mincr, regional
health education coordinator, recently worked with a
team of school personnel to
help them identify important
areas that contribute to
heal thy students.
The group used the School
Health Index tool to rank the
following areas according to
specific critcria: hcalth d u cat i o n , ph y s i c a1 t‘d 11I:a t i () n.

Sunday wasn’t April Fools’
Day, but Mother Nature had
the last laugh just the same
over the weekend as a wind
storm hit the state, downing
trces, cutting power to thousands of residents and closing a least one Thumb area

City was among the areas
least affected by power outages.
Supt. Ken Micklash joins
the majority of other school
administrators in Michigan
in wishing that the Michigan
State Police would follow
.the law and inspect school
buscs yearly. State Police
have announced that in the
future they will inspect buses
every other year instead of
annually because of the cost.

Editor’s note: This is the

with the Michigan Furm
Bureau’s Adopt-u-Farmprogram, which puirs members

111 the following story, futher arid son Keith and Dave
Little, who farm 1,300 acres
in northern Novesta Township, discuss their preparatioris f o r t h e upcomirlg
plaritirig season.
Probably few things are as
unpredictable as Michigan
weathcr. Keith and Dave
Little, like all other farrncrs,
are keenly aware of that fact,
but the father and son still
look forward to each new
growing season.
It’s been weeks since the
Littlcs ordered their seed and
deter in i n ed what they w i I I
plant this year - they typically grow 400 to 450 acres
of corn and soybeans along
with some dry beans and
wheat. Now, it’s a matter of
checking on their fields for
signs that the soil is ready.
Preparations will include
breaking up the soil, although thc Littles grow some
no-till soybeans, which arc
plan tcd without first ti II i ng
thc soil.
“1,ast year I think we started
planting thc 21st of April,”
Davc said.
“‘l’hat was abnorrnally
early,” addcd Keith, who
nolcd planting usually gets
undcrway in latc April, dcpending on soil inoisturc and
tern pcrat urc .
“Corn g o e s in first. Last
ycar we put i n corn and soybeans at thc same tirnc, but
usually soyhcans arc plnntcd
in rnid-May,” Davc said. “It

vcloped seeds that arc riiorc
cold resistant than thcy uscd
to bc,” Keith said.
The Littles won’t plant thcir
dry beans until June. Again,
they pointed out, sail moisture is a key factor to ensure
good germ inat ion.
Another key is planting
depth. “With corn, you try
to gct it down good, ;Icouple
of inches,” Davc said, adding bcans arc plantcd shallower - an inch and a half‘ o r
so - because they are shrtllow-rooted plants.
Dc term i n i ng what to pI an t
in which field is bascd, i n
part, by thc Little’s rotation
schedule. For examplc, they
plant bcans in fields where
they grew corn the year before, and they plant winter
wheat i n the fall in fields
where they grew bcans thc
previous year. Also part of
t hei r rota ti on arc pot at ocs
grown by another farming
operation, and they follow
potatoes with corn duc to the
higher concentration of fcrtilizcr uscd on potatoes.
“It depends on the field.
Sonic fields just won’t grow
dry beans,’’ said Dave, who
pointed out that soil type gravcl or heavy clay - is another factor that also affects
how much wed is planted in
each field.
In gravelly soil, he said, the
corn seed count is about

mold. That’s the biggest
problem.”
The Littles utilize herbicides to keep weeds down
during the growing season.
Herbicides can be applied
after seeds have germinated,
after planting but before the
secds have come up, and
prior to planting, “We’ve
gotten away from that (preplanting applications), but I
think we’ll be going back to
that this year,” Keith said,
adding it’s easier to control
weeds before they have a
chance to mature.
Insects aren’t a huge probIcm, according to Dave, who
said crop rotation is an important tool, although he
occasionally uses an insecticide to combat leafhoppers
on dry beans, and a fungicide to tackle white mold on
soy beans.
Many seed companies incorporate insect and disease
resistance into their seeds.
The issue of genetically engineered seed has sparked a
big debate, Dave said, adding hc sees a lot of valuc in
the practice.
With genetically enginccred seeds, he explained,
“you’re getting away from
insccticidcs. I think it’s actually safer.”
“As farrncrs, we’re concerned about food safety as
much as the consumer hecause wc are a consumer,”
Keith said.
The Littles also usc fertilizer on sonic of their crops.
Soybeans are a “scavenger
plant” - thcy can grow just
about anywhere - Dnve said.
Howcvcr, he added, you havc
to fcrtilim dry beans and
corn, which is a particularly
hcavy nitrogen “fecdcr”.
“A lot of guys usc anhydrous (ammonia), but we usu
28 perccn t liquid ni trogcn,”
Davc cont inucd.
Keith said liquid nitrogen
is safkr-IO handlc, ciuickcr to
;ipply and can be incorporated into the fxiit‘s irr igatlon systcm.

He noted price Supports

soybean and wheat markcts,
but there are no supports for
dry beans and livestock (the
Littlcs have 80 head of beef
cattle and a farrow-to-finish
hog operation that turns out
1,000 to 1,200 hogs annually).
Dave said they also took
advantage of an unexpccted
opportunity last year when
they were approached t o sell
11,000 acres of high moisture corn, which saved them
drying costs and provided
another farmer with feed. “It
was a win-win situation for
both guys,” hc addcd.

residents
c6connect’’
I t k m s unlikely that a town
as small as Cass City could
have nearly 30 people visiting or living in one city in
FI ori da . Am a L i n g1y e n ou g h ,
however, this was reucntly
the case in the Naples, Fla.
area.
b
During the months of Fehruary and March, several exCass City residents hoqted 3
parties in Naples. Susan Shaw
Richardson and her husband,
Rill, hosted the first, Howard
and Ruthie Bacon, Bob and
Marianne Walpolc, and Del
and Doris Rawson hosted
the second, and Mike and
Jeanne Fritz hosted the third.
Some of those attending
had not seen one another for
more than 40 years.
The “Cass City Conncctors” included Del and Doris
R a w s o n , Susan and Bill
Richardson, Joan Holmbcrg
Pollock and husband Greg
Notman. Mike and Jeanne
Fritz, Lynn and Mary Albee,
and Linda Albce, Torn
and
Linda
Herron, Howard
Dick
and Ruthie Bacon and
daughter Melody, Jeanne
Auten and sister Joann Frye,
Dick and Margo Donahue,
Paul Holmberg, Rod and
Colleen Kruegcr, Bob and
Marianne w&ok Chuck
and Iris Tuckey, Toby and
Mikcweaver, Bill and Karen
Wallacc, Frank a n d mi
Tordai, and Ken Eisinger and
his fiancee. Kathleen Mtlhar.
Name tags were in order,
which assisted guests i n
quickly re-establishing connections. After much-reminiscing, all expressed c‘nthusiasm for another reunion
and agreed that Cass City is
a pretty special place.
’
NEARLY 30 “Cass City Connectors” gathered at 3 parties held in February and
March in Naples, Fla.
No shortage of demandfor
drought assistance loans
As supporters cxpcutcd,
there’s no shortagc 01‘ dc-
mand for zero-intcrcst q r t cultural loans designcd to
help Michigan farnicr\ who
sustained severe wcathcr-rclated crop losscs last ycar. I n
fact,
officials
with
GrcenStone Farm Crcdlt Scrvices, the statc’s primary agricultural lending institution,
say demand “has heen ovcrwhelming” across thc state.
Jim Schiller, GrecnStonc
chief executive officer, said
the company had closed on
36 applications for loans totaling $2.5 million at thc end
of March, which markcd
about a month since statc
1eg i s I at i o n appro v i n g t hc
loans was signed into law.
As of April 3, GrecnStone
had declared approximatcly
640 farmers statewide cligible for about $54 niillion
in loans,.Schillcr said. Of the
applications reccivcd, the
average loan is about
$84,000 per producer.
“The demand is incrcasing
every day,” said Schiller,
adding that most of thc interest continues t o C O I T ~ C
from farmersain the Sa&’
linaw
V~lllcyand Thumb rcgions
and the southwest corner of
thc state whcrc drought and
other wcathcr conditions
drastically reduced yiclds
and quality o f dry hems and
g r apc s.
Loan applications arc also
being processcd by commercial banks participating in the v
prograin, said Hob Bochiii,
manager of the Michigan
Farm Bureau (MFB) Coniniodity and Marketing Dcpart in c n t .
“The Michigan Bankers
Association is dcvcloping ;I
list of banks particip;\ting in
the progrmi,” I3octirri said.
“We oxpcut to xcc cvcn mort‘

statc’s cost for thc program
is reimbursement to lenders
for cxpcnses to administer
the loans at no interest to
produccrs.
Thc loans have a maximum
tcrin of 5 yuars. Repayment
starts at the beginning of the
third ycar. A farmer who
qualifies for financial stress
can bc loaned up to
$*150,000,while a farmer
who can provc production
loss can be loaned u p to
$200,000.
Farmers interested i n accessing the program are advised to have their financial
records in order before consulting thcir Icndcr. For instance, Schiller said produccrs need evidence of their
loss, such as avcrage crop
yiclds from years past and
their 2001 yiclds. More information on qualifying criteria is available on the MFB

Horse Liniment
Eases Arthritis
Pain
OCALA, FL -- An ingredient
derived from hot peppers that
decreases inflammation in racehorse's legs, is now recognized
as safe and effective for human
use. The ingredient has been
formulated into a product called
ARTH-Rx" and comes ,in a
strength designed for humans.
Researchers are excited and say
the formula can relieve arthritis
pain for millions.
Developed by the Phillips Gulf
Corporation, ARTH-Rx is a
breakthrough in the treatment
ofpainhl disordersranging ti-om
minor aches and pains to more
serious conditions such as arthritis, bursitis,rheumatism,tendonitis, backache and more.
Although the mechanism by
which ARTH-Rx works to relieve pain is not totally clear,
scientists suggest that pain is
relieved because ARTH-Rx intercepts the messenger substance that sends pain signals
to the brain.
ARTH-P,x is available in a convenient roll-on applicator without a prescription.According
to a spokesperson for the company, due to the overwhelming demand for ARTH-Rx, supplies are sometimes limited.
ARTH-Rx can also be ordered
by calling 1-800-729-8446.
www.hcdsales.com 020o0p~c
ARTH-Rx is available at:
