Do not sign a blank health insurance application or one that isn't complete and correct. If your application isn't accurate, you could risk losing your benefits. Remember that the savings of buying insurance from unknown or distant companies and agents is usually offset by the cost and in convenience of correcting prob lems or misunderstandings. People who have health con ditions should be extremely cau tious about changing insurance companies. money on premiums between insurance companies. Increase your deductibles; do not use your policy to cover small losses. Pay your premium in full in stead of in monthly payments. Drive defensively. A good driving record means a lower pre muim. Find out how much it will cost to insure your car before you buy it. Certain makes and models-like sports cars-are bigger risks to in surance companies and cost more to insure. Ask about discounts for good students, good drivers, seniors, non-smokers, defensive driving courses, air bags, anti-lock brakes, and multiple cars. Think about dropping colli sion coverage on any car 12 years old or older because it may cost more to repair than it is worth.

When the young people become an active part of the learning process, the amount they learn increases dram atically.

Give outdoor plants plenty of water during dry season Warm, dry weather makes plants thirstier than usual, espe cially those in containers such as planters and hanging baskets. When outdoor temperatures are high, daily watering of container and hanging basket plants is not unusual. Soil in metal drums, gallon cans, olastic tubs, wooden boxes and flower pots can dry out quickly, especially in full sun. Water container plants when the soil is dry. Stop applying water when it begins running out of the container's drain holes. Avoid get ting the container soil excessively soggy and don't leave water stand ing on the soil surface. The simplest way to protect container plants from extreme heat is to move them to a cooler loca tion during the hottest part of the When cleaning house, bathe plants too While doing your cleaning, do some spring plant cleaning too. Most houseplants can be washed in warm, soapy water at bathing temperature about 90 to 100 degrees F. The exception to house plant bathing are hairy-surfaced plants such as African violets and begonias. Washing Houseplants removes dirt, insect eggs, oily deposits from oil heat, and insecticides. It also helps control houseplant insect pests' such as mites, mealy bugs and scale insects. Wash all leaves, stems and buds.

Research has also shown that those who tune in to television reg ularly are likely to snack on high caloric foods such as potato chips and soda pop during air time. Finallv. some ovcrwciuht vouths may get caught up in a vicious cir cle of turning to TV for entertain ment because they feel self-con-cious about their bodies and then hesitating even more about joining in physical activities with kids that are in better shape. If your little one is "glued" to the TV day in and day out, nip the habit in the bud. The Academy of Pediatrics suggests that parents limit their children's favorite tele vision time to no more than two hours a day and, at the same time, encourage their youngsters to play ing ball, swimming or jumping rope. Some youngsters won't even need the encouragement after the set is turned off. The TV-less bore dom alone can get the children moving, says William Dietz, MD, a researcher in childhood obesity at the Tufts University-affiliated New England Medical Center. day.
