A free coov of In the Driver's aeat Some Questions and Answers Septic system needs proper maintenance There's not a substitute for proper , maintenance of a septic tank sys , tern, including regular pumping. People purchasing expensive biological or chemical additives to , aid or accelerate settling or . decomposition of solids are spend ing money needlessly because the additives aren't necessary in a properly functioning system and won't eliminate the need for . pumping. But a properly installed and functioning septic system does not need frequent pumping. In Oregon, a 1,000 gallon septic tank is used for a three bedroom home. If six people live in the same house, the tank will need pumping about every 1 8 months. But with a family of two, the tank needs pumping only about evry 5.9 years. Pumping frequency will vary not only by size of household but by appliances, such as a garbage dis Keep it clean briefs Here's an easy cleaning tech nique to keep faucet fixtures shiny. Dab the fixtures dry whenever water is splashed on them. Water -deposits will not form because water is not allowed to evaporate on the surface. Shaking or vacuuming area rugs before laundering removes loose particles to make washing more effective. After treating a spot or a stain on a washable item, launder im mediately to wash away the stain and the stain removal product. Here's another tip on the care of knives. Never soak them in hot water prolonged moisture will eventually warp, roughen and even loosen wood handles. Instead, al ways wash knives quickly in hot soap or detergent suds and rinse, then wipe them dry at once. Don't over-crowd the dryer with permanent press items. These fabrics need room to fluff away wrinkles. And do remove clothes promptly after the dryer stops. In soft water, less detergent may be needed. In hard water, more detergent is needed to tie up the hardness minerals. The power scrub cycle on dish washers makes elbow grease a thing of the past. The cycle cleans the baked-on food and grease on casseroles, pots and pans.

In addi tion, some septic tanks may be smaller if they were installed before the current rules and regulations became effective. A chart giving estimated pump ing frequencies in years by size of the septic tank and the number of people in a household has been prepared. The information is part of four new Extension publications dealing with septic tank systems and their maintenance. The publications, prepared under a grant from the Farmers Home Administration, are available to the public without charge. The four circulars are "Why Do Septic Systems Fail?" ECI340; "Septic Tank-Soil Absorption Sys tems," EC134I; "Holding Tanks," ECI342; and "Septic Tank Main tenance," EC1 343. Copies of one or all four may be obtained by contacting your local Extension Office. shiny. Disinfecting utensils and work surfaces after handling foods such as raw meat and poultry can min imize the risk of bacterial contam ination. First, wash the utensils and surface thoroughly with hot, sudsy water. Then, make a solu tion of one tablespoon of chlorine bleach to one gallon of water, apply liberally and soak the items for 10 minutes. Rinse well with clear water. Water exercise may meet needs Many people who prefer a softer exercise than, say, jogging or aero bic dancing, have found that swim ming pool workouts are ideal. Water workouts are less stressful to the joints and muscles. That's important if you're overweight, re covering from an injury, suffer arthritis or heart disease or tire easily. Yet, water exercise meets your more advanced fitness needs, too. The water's resistance makes many movements harder to do and there fore, very effective at building strength and flexibility. The water feels good, too, as it gently massages and refreshes you. You'll feel great afterward. Jump in.. .the water is fine! recipes paper lined muffin-pan cups until 23 full.

Before increasing the amount of consumer debt, determine how much credit you can safely assume. You need to study your credit situation. How much credit you can safely assume depends on the amount of dependability of your income, the size of your family, your day-today expenses, and the amount of money you have available for emergencies. One measure of debt is the debt to income ration, that is the por tion of your income that goes to pay for credit purchases. Gener ally, it is recommended that you not spend in excess of 20 percent of your take-home pay for repayment ofconsumerdebt. Consumberdebt, do not include your mortgage payment, explains Alice Mills Morrow, OSU Extension family economics specialist. To determine the per cent of. income you spend on consumer debts, add up all your current monthly payments for installment loans, credit cards, educational debts, car loans and other credit purchases. Next, divide your monthly take-home pay by 6. If the total of your monthly payments is greater than 1 6 (about 17) of your take-home pay, you have about as much consumer debt Blackleg bacterin proves effective Blackleg is a disease caused by Clostridium chauvoei and primar ily affects cattle under two years of age and is usually seen in the better doing calves. The organism is taken in by mouth. Symptoms first noted are those of lameness and depres sion. A swelling, caused by gas bubbles, often can be felt under the skin as a crackling sensation. Occasionally, sudden death occurs with no symtoms observed. Upon a post mortem examina tion, the infected area is composed of black, dead (necrotic) muscle which is pocked with gas bubbles. Diagnosis is based on the symp toms of lameness with a gaseous swelling under the skin in young cattle and is confirmed by post mortem and laboratory tests. Prevention is readily accomp lished by the use of Blackleg bac terin which over the years have proven very effective. Vaccination at less than 4 months of age will not produce a lasting immunity. Calves vaccinated at less then 4 months should be revaccinated at 5-6 months. add variety to daily menus 2 tsp. dried basil, if desired tsp. dried leaf oregano, if desired Wash and sort beans.

Some financial advisors suggest committing no more than I0-to-15 percent of take-home pay to con sumer debts and recommend you should be able to pay the debts within 24 months, this may not always be possible, especially with car loan. Some danger signals of too much consumer debt are: You only pay the minimum bal Financial planning necessary Money isn't everything in a mar riage, but how it's managed is important to the marital relation ship. Money management should en hance the marital relationship by making both spouses feel good about the relationship and them selves as individuals. Each partner is likely to bring to the marriage different attitudes and feelings about money and how it should be managed. The couple needs to discuss what money means, priorities for its use and develop a budget for the first year. It takes time, effort and com munication to arrive at a common understanding about money. There is no one way to manage money. Some couples pool all income and share expenses. Some pool part of their income for shared expenses and goals while each Malignant edema is a disease of cattle of any age caused by C.I. septicum. It occurs as a wound infection. The organism gains entrance to the body in deep wounds and can even be introduced into vaginal or uterine wounds in cows following difficult calving. The symtoms are those primar ily of depression, loss of appetite and a wet doughy swelling around the wound. Temperatures of 106 degrees or more are associated with the infection with death frequently occurring in twenty-four to forty eight hours. The disease can be prevented by the use of Clostridium septicum bacterin usually produced in com bination with other bacterin. Clostridium Novyi. Infections caused by CI. novyi, called Black disease, in cattle, occur sporadi cally in cow-calf operations as they are more often seen under feedlot conditions. The route of infection and transmission are not known, however, it is thought to gain entrance into the body by a wound infection, or possibly taken in orally.

Clostridium novyi bacterin are available in combination with other clostridial bacterin and are gener ally thought to offer greater and more solid protection with two injections given four to six weeks apart. Clostridium Sordellii is a sudden death disease of primarily feedlot cattle, infrequently seen in cows. The route of transmission is unknown, thought to be by mouth. No symptoms are observed as only dead animals are found. The post mortem findings are somewhat specific, as they tend to be found in the area of brisket and throat, consisting of massive black hemorrhage and smelly muscle necrosis with no gas formation. No treatment is of value as sick anim als are not observed. Clostridium sordellii bacterin are available. The vaccines for these four diseases are often found to gether in compounds called 4-way or 7-wav.
