1 2 Tho Nwi-Review, Roseburg, New Zealand Boy Studies Farming (Continued from Page One) big before this," he exclaimed. To him logging looks like "a pretty hard life.". He says he'll "stick to miming cows." Russ sailed from Auckland, New Zealand, to Vancouver, B.C., Can ada, on the. Arorangi, a Union Line ship. Washington, D. C, was his des tination first. After a week there he spent two months on a Ver mont dairy farm observing farm methods and family life. He tra velled back to Washington for a one-week international 4-H camp, then headed west Before coming to Douglas Coun ty, Stalker spent some time at the Astoria research station watching tests on pasture improvement and management. Niagara Falls was his first sight seeing stop in the United States, since he traveled east across Can ada from Vancouver. "They're quite a big place," he remembers. "I was under them, over them, and all over the place," he said in explaining that he really got a good look. "One of the most beautiful cities In the world," is how tii describes Washington, D. C. "It's something to be proud of." He was particularly impressed by Washington's "well-kept appear ance," nice wide streets and beau tiful monuments. New York was different. "I didn't feel very comfortable there." he said. "The place was too big. It doesn't seem real some how. " Admitting tha tNew York is "worth seeing," he told about go ing to the top of ths Empire State building, seeing several Broadway shows, and trips to the Bowery and Chinatown. His "uncomfortable" feeling in New York .City probably came, he said, because he's unaccus tomed to large cities. Auckland, New Zealand's largest, is smaller than Portland, he explained. The "good organization" of traf fic In the U.S.'s largest city im pressed him. Eastern cities were a bit more crowded than he likes, so he pre fers the West. We're more like New Zealand out here because we have more gardens in our towns, he says. Clamdigging near Astoria was a new experience for him. "We didn't get out early enough," he said. "There were about 1000 be fore us." The New Zealand youth got ac quainted with American youth while serving as a boys' counselor ! ' at Camp Lane, a 4-H summer camp located about 40 miles from Eugene for a week, ' "They talk a lot more than New Zealand boys do," he learned. He noticed a definite lack of Infor mation about foreign countries. "They ask a lot of intcllig?nt questions bid. they know very little else than about the United States," he pointed out. Stalker comes from a dairy farm in Rangiora, located on South Island, New Zealand. Ho and his mother run the 220-acre farm. His father is dead. Their 90 milking cows, part of a total stock of 140, supply 2.230 pounds of whole milk a day, Thev sell this to the town of Christ Church, population 2,000. He was one of four New Zea land youths selected in a nation-wide survey by the New Zea land Dairy Board, the agency which sponsored Stalker's trip. He's a member of the New Zea land Young Farmer's Club. The Dairy Board pays his tra veling expenses to and from the YOUR BODY ROSEBURG, OREGON Th.i. haalth rtlcltl art wrltttn and paid for by Dr. 1.

Look for thtia Informative rtlcltl avtry Saturday, Stones in the kidney, ureter or bladder are quite common condi tions. They appear more frequent in males than in females and mere common between the ages of around fifteen to forty five years f, se. . Infections in the kidney a r e probably one of the greatest caus es of stones. To form a stone it is necessary to have a nucleus or beginning. Accumulations of pus and bits of Infected tissue com monly form this nucleus. There fore, it is Important that infec tions be recognized early. Stones may be formed also by the supersaturation of urine with certain crystalloids, such as the urate crystals, calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate crystals and occasionally by cystine crys tals which is usually due to a stasis or retention of urine within the kidney or ureters or bladder, possibly from some malformation or by a fold within the ureter or any involvement that may obstruct the normal excretion of urine. There are many indications that diets too rich in calcium and uric acid may produce stones. This is. however, probably very rare and neds merely to be mentioned. Diets which arc deficient in cer tain vitamins, particularly vita min A, have also been suggested as causes of stones. In general, however, if an individual cats- the usual three meals a day with plenty of green vegetables, and average amounts of protein and carbohydrates t -crs is I i 1 1 1 chance of diet being a factor in the formation of stones. The individual fluid intake is a factor that is extremely import ant, especially in hot weather, Ore Sat., Aug. 2, 1952 Lively Mel Venter Show Here Applauded . (Continued from Page One) came in the talent portion of the program. In numerical order, the first was dimpled Margaret Ann Smith whose talent in stock was singing. The brown-haired beauty sponsor ed by the Umpqua Valley Grange, sang "I'm Yours" and "I Wish I had a Girl." Second on the list was Marlene I.utey, sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce. With dra matic endeavor, she recited a reading from John Steinbeck's "The Moon is Down." Returning to the musical side, dusty blonde Marjorie White play ed a flute solo adapted from the Andante movement of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 1. It was the only instrumental talent displayed. Blonde Valerie Sparks drew her talent from dancing. The pert love ly danced a tango and a jitterbug number with her partner Bob Sin clair. Janis Dowdy, sponsored by Or ganized Labor, returned to a dra matic vein with a frothright read ing from Du Maurier's "Rebecca." With a clever deviation, Barbara Peterson introduced a fashion show of dresses she sewed for wear in a single day, from morn ing creations to late evening. Marilyn Frentrcss of Myrtle Creek completed the list of prin cesses with a solo dance routine. The producers of the show en hanced the evening by weaving in the added talent of Jad and Jes sica Paul, Gordon Howard and Gene Smith's accordian band. Also included on the program were Mel Venter and his Break fast Gang. Although their session on the program was limited to introductions, none of the group had apparently Inst his zest for fun since breakfast. Addison Arthur Shaw Of Garden Valley Dies Addison Arthur Shaw, 58, resi dent of Garden Valley ltd., died Aug. l after a very short illness. He was born July 1, 1896, in Marie Center, Vermont, and came to Rnsphurff in 1940 tn malt hi home. He was an employee of the commercial L-Dr. Ac bales LO. OI Dillard. Surviving are three sons: t.eo Shaw, Troy, N. Y.; Arthur Shaw, Koseburg: rrancis Shaw. Eureka. Calif.; a brother, Elmer Shaw, Pittsfield, Mass.; two sisters: Mrs. Mable Kirchner and Mrs, Marie Piatt, both of Pittsfield, Mass. The body has been removed to the Roseburg Funeral Home, and funeral arrangements will be an nounced later. U.S. The 4-H Foundation plans and finances his tour of this country. Now he's on the Crumpn,r ranch getting acquainted with Laurie, 17, and Barnie, 16, the Crumpners two sons. He's already shown them a "new deal" for hauling hay, say the Crumpner boys. Stalker has given them other ideas too. Crumpner is consider ng building a new barn. "But we're going to change our ideas now," say the boys, since the New Zealander has given them some cost-cutting ideas. The Crumpner's visitor leaves for another Oregon county on tha 10th. He'll go back to his native country in October. But while he's here, Russ is go ing to "find out how the people live, how they farm, what their outlook is, what their plans arc, and what they're aiming at." when much fluid is lost by pres- piration, This gives the kidney lit tie to work on and consequently, the urine becomes concentrated and there is little flow. As a re suit of this condition, particles accumulate, forming a nucleus for i a stone, Kidney stones are divided into the so-called silent and the active ly moving type. The dormant type or silent stone may have been present for many months without the individual having any know ledge of Its presence. The stone may have been discovered when the person had an examination for some other condition. If the stone is of any consider able size, there is usually a dull aching pain in the back of the af fected side; this pain is more pro nounced when the individual is up and about, but it does not entirely disappear when he is lving down. Tenderness can be caused when making pressure over the kidney. Blood and pus are found upon making a urinalysis. This varies in quantity according to the size of the stone and whether its ori gin is due to infection or to chem ical changes in the urine. The tak ing of an X-ray is usually per formed to complete the diagnosis, however occasionally some of the stones are radio-lucent and do not show by X-ray, this occurs only In about 5 per cent of the cases. Water dilutes the urine and elim inates the tendency to the forma tion of kidney stones. One should ' average eight to ten full glasses of water in a twenty-four hour pe-1 riod, especially in hot weather.
