Horse Liniment
Eases Arthritis
Pain
6769m
OCALA. FL — An ingredient de
rived from hot peppers that decreas
es inflammation in racehorse's legs,
is now recognized as safe and effec
tive for human use The ingredient has
been formulated into a product called
ARTH-Rx ™and comes in a strength
designed for humans. Researchers
are excited and say the formula can
relieve arthritis pain for millions.
Developed by the Phillips Gulf
Corporation. ARTH-Rx is a break
through in the treatment of painful
disorders ranging from minor aches
and pains to more serious conditions
such as arthritis, bursitis, rheuma
tism. tendonitis, backache and more
Although the mechanism by which
ARTH-Rx works to relieve pain is not
totally clear, scientists suggest that
pain is relieved because ARTH-Rx
intercepts the messenger substance
that sends pain signals to the brain.
ARTH-Rx is available in a conve
r lent roll-on applicator without a pre
scription. According to a spokesper
son for the company, due to the over
whelming demand for ARTH-Rx. sup
plies are sometimes limited. ARTH
Rx can also be ordered by calling 1
800-729-8446 www hcdsales.com

ARTH-Rx is available locally at.

By reading this article you
are an official deputy o f the
Morrow County Puncture Vine
Police. The community has been
invaded in the last two weeks by
the unwanted and obnoxious
weed known as puncture vine or
goat head.
This nasty invader was late
showing up because of the cool
w eather this spring, but is
already in flower and has set
seed. Deputies are asked to use
their official capacity to rid the
county of this menace in any way
chosen by the deputy: pulling.
digging, burning, or spraying. It is
advised to go back in two weeks
and do it all over again, especially
after a rain.
“If you think it’s not growing
on your property, you may be
wrong”, said a press release, “If
you’re not sure what it looks like,
a representative of the Morrow
County Weed Control District or
Morrow Soil and Water
Conservation District would be
happy to identify it for you.”
Those with questions may call
Dave at 989-9502 or Janet at 676-
5452 for assistance.

Latest on the “H”
By Sarah Coller
Gary Jones o f Hood
River contacted the Gazette-
Times to provide some more
information on the “H” on Cross
Hill. Jones was a senior at
Heppner High School in 1957 and
he verified that the “H” was
placed on the hill in the spring of
that year. Jones was chairman
of the committee who decided to
pour the concrete initial on the hill
as a senior class project. Other
members of the committee, said
Jones, were Mary Stewart,
Marilyn Pettyjohn, Eddie Olsen,
Shirley Kononen, Meredith
Thompson, Dee Bailey and
himself.
Jones said the project
was done in April or May of that
year so it was too late to get a
picture in that year’s high school
yearbook. “Some of us have
talked a time or two and wondered
about it,” said Jones and added,
“1 showed it to my wife when I
first got married.”
Jones said they, too, had
painted the “H” white, just as the
Wolff girls, who recently re
discovered the cross, did last
month.
