Dr. Philip White of the American Medi cal Association, in speaking of the government's controver sial 'Dietary Guidelines' - which recommends reduction of meat and animal fats in the diet as a way to reduce risk of cancer and heart disease -says. "We have a government greatly preoccupied with the role of diet in degenerative diseases, namely obesity and physical inactivity."

Yet today some people are suddenly turning their backs on those millions of years' develop ment and ignoring our need for this very important source of basic human nutritional requirements. Lack of high quality protein lowers a person's resistance to disease and reduces his ability to work. People on vegetarian diets usually have to take mineral and vitamin supple ments. It's easier and cheaper to get these important food elements naturally.

After a camping trip, hike in the mountains, or a picnic In the woods, it's a wise idea to check yourself and children for ticks. Ticks are blood Bucking insects that are usual i ly parasitic on humans and other animals, and may carry diseases and transmit them to their hosts. The pests average one-fourth of an inch long and are wingless. Two of the diseases that ticks can transmimt to a host are Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Colorado Tick Fever. The symptoms are similar, but the prognoses are very different. However, the only way to diagnose one disease from the other is through a lab test. Morrow County Public Health Nurse Pat Wright lists the symptoms of Rocky Moun tain Spotted Fever to look for: severe headache, chills, ex haustion, muscle pain, ab dominal pain, fever of 103 to 104 degrees F., localized tissue inflamation at the site of the bite, nausea and vomiting, and-or measle-like rash. The disease is caused by insects infected with reiket tsiae. The incubation period averages seven days, but may vary from three to 12 days, Wright says. The fatality rate of the disease increases with age. Untreated patients may de velop complications such as pneumonia, circulatory fail ure and possible brain, liver and heart damage, she said. Unlike Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Colorado Tick Fever is caused by a virus and is not treatable with antibiotic therapy, says Dr. Paul Wil liams, public health veterinar ian at the Health Division of the Department of Human Resources in Portland, and the disease poses no real health threat. However, he stresses, the only way to tell the difference between the two is through laboratory diagno sis. Describing the symptoms of Colorado Tick Fever, Dr. Wil liams relates that the onset is sudden and the victim may feel achy, have a fever, mus cle pain, pain in the joints, backache, and in children, nauea and vomiting may occur. A rash is uncommon, but a "spotty" or spreading rash has been noted in a small number of cases. EL17eFSiNc. One distinguishing factor between the two diseases is that when person becomes ill with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, he stays sick, Dr. Williams says. If infected with Colorado Tick Fever, the vic tim will become ill for two to .(hree days, then symptoms 'will disappear and he will feel better for several days. A second onset of symptoms will then occur and last from two to four days, he said. He said only one Colorado Tick Fever related death has been recorded, while the fa tality rate for Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever runs from 15 to 20 percent in patients who don't seek treatment, and from four to six percent in those who are treated. There is no way to tell from an imbedded tick which dis ease may be transmitted from it as the same type of tick can carry either disease. Mrs. Wright gives the fol lowing instructions for remo ving a tick : 1 . Do not pull, tear or crush the tick. 2. Apply turpentine, vaseline, rubbing or drinking alcohol or any heavv oil to the tick. 3.

Dr. Williams says that 80 percent of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever cases occur on the Wulheastera"Tieaboard7 and the disease Is considered rare In the West. Colorado Tick Fever, however, Is com mon in the West, and tn Oregon, is seen most often on the eastern tide of the state.
