This is merely one of many examples of removing animals from their usual environment Environmentalists don't like odors so "what to do with manure?" A number of ex perimental projects have been going on, using lagoons, sprinklers and other systems Also, he mentioned, it is possible to make feed and crude oil from manure. Government regulations re quire special treatment of residues of feed additives such as hormones utilized in cattle feeding. Dr. Oldfield said there must be a tolerance of residues Whether the residues can act ually cause any harm to the consumer has yet to be proven The additive, stilbestrol, causes fast inexpensive gains in cattle and reduces costs to the consumer. He said there were many changes needed in production technology. We need, he said, to avoid the tendency of separat ing producers from consumers. Rather, he insists, we need to work as partners to produce acceptable alternatives.

How many troubled people will be discouraged from seek ing professional mental health counseling because they do not want anyone to know their problem or because they don't want to be seen going into the Mental Health Services office?? The Mental Health Services office on West Willow is nearing completion. As the time ap proaches for the office t "open lor business." some people are asking whether there will be many people willing to be seen walking through the door. However, Mr. Mitchum indi cates that many people have been calling for several weeks regarding future appointments, and county agencies and schools have indicated a back log in potential referrals. The Mental Health Services for Morrow County has strict policies regarding confidenti ality. Of course records will be kept in order to follow a patient's progress, but profes sional staff learn early in their training to protect records to insure the peace of mind of their patients All mental I ealth workers respect the privacy and dignity of the individual. " Only professionally trained, authorized personnel will handle records. The charts will never leave the office and will be locked in a file when the office is closed Much of the information will be in code. Records will be filed by case numbers instead of names. Patients w ill not be permitted to see records. Information from records will never be released without written permission of the patient or guardian, and then, only to recognized social or medical agencies. We hope the citizens of Morrow County will use the new service when the office opens in a few weeks. If people realize their problem will be kept confidential, perhaps they will come for help sooner. The chances for a speedy recovery are improved when early treatment is sought, and it Degins wnen tne person is willing to boldlv walk through the Mental Health Office door.
