12 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, July 25, 1962 Parasite Responsible For Chronic Disease ROME (CP)--A minute para- site that bores through the skin and makes its home in the hu- man body is responsible for chronic illness in 150,000,000 people in Asia, South America, the Middle East, Africa and the Philippines, The disease, called bil- harziasis or schistosomiasis or, around until it finds an besa zation in an effort to eliminate or human victim, upon which itithe snails by destroying the bores through the skin, |weeds that harbor the snail DESTROY WEEDS colonies.

Rome headquarters of FAO after completing his assignment before returning home to join a firm of consulting engineers in Vancouver. "I found that agricultural practices could certainly be im- proved,"' he said. "The land is permanently covered by water; weeding is rarely carried out, while few farmers bother to level up the land or to rotate the crops. "It was therefore quite ob- vious that these major faults would have to be corrected be- fore any improvement could take place. I recommended proper water control, which means knowing when to flood} and drain, with proper attention} to the quality of the water and| avoidance of excess water on the land. Then, of course,regu- lar weeding, crop rotation and correct preparation of the land,) levelling it off before the plants are put in." | | FOUND RESISTANCE Templeman-Kluit, a native of |The Netherlands who went to iCanada in 1954, added that the |major problem was to get lacross to the farmers the idea that attempts to eliminate the| disease would not also eliminate the crop. | A demonstration area was set up to show that these two aims) could be achieved fairly simply.| But mass. education must be undertaken, he said. When he started a_ small) demonstration farm, the snail count was as high as 231 per square yard. The terraces were rearranged and the land lev-| elled, followed: by rice seeding. Weeding was carried out con-} tinuously. After harvesting,| only two snails could be found in the entire area. | He emphasized that the eradi-| cation of the disease is a long-| term project since 13,000 square miles--10 per cent of the total! land area of the Philippines--| must be cleared. It has been! estimated it would take 177 years with an annual expendi- ture of $10,000,000 to complete all the needed control work. Judge Refuses Injuction On Medicare REGINA (CP) -- Mr. Justice D.
