economic and biological con
cerns,” she said.

The croup is a hoarse barking
like cough (with or without high-
pitched wheezing sounds) in small
children. Croup is caused by a
viral infection in the voice box or
larynx. The infection causes
swelling and a shrinkage of airway
openings in the bronchi (breathing
tubes). According to the AMA
Family Medical Guide, “any small
child, especially if under five years,
with noisy, rapid breathing should
be taken to the physician without
delay. In most cases the cause is
croup, but rarely it is epiglottitis,
which requires urgent treatment in
a hospital."
Adults caring for a child with
the croup should attempt to keep
the child as calm as possible. Mist
from a pan or kettle of hot w ater or
mist from a steamy bathroom has
been thought to reduce the swell
ing and make breathing easier. Ac
cording to a recent article in
American Family Physician, steam
or mist therapy, when compared to
placebo therapy (no m ist). failed to
ease croup coughing in children.
Drinking extra fluids and taking
walks outdoors may be helpful.
Physicians sometimes use oral
steroids and antibiotics to treat
croup with varying degrees of suc
cess. Racemic epinephrine often is
used in children who have been
hospitalized. This medicine ap

In the Private Lands Commit
tee, Darryll Olsen, Ph.D .,
economist for the Northwest Ir
rigation Utilities addressed the
path toward cost-effectiveness in
salmon recovery. By using cost
effective analysis, that is the cost
per return of adult salmon to its
spawning stream, Dr. Olsen
determined the most productive
actions would be barging baby
salmon down river past the dams
and in river commercial harvest
restriction and predator control.
The draw down of reservoirs
seems to be the most costly.
Habitat measures inland would be
in the mid range, he said.
