TOOTH IN HAND
Jimmy was speeding across the pasture on his three-
wheeler, when suddenly his front wheel dropped into a fax
hole. He sailed through the air to a head first landing. Ashe
wiped the blood from his mouth, he found his upper front
tooth in his hand. What should he do? Fortunately,
Jimmy’s tooth may not be lost forever.
A dentist can effectively deal with this emergency with
some help. First, find the tooth. Then wrap it in a wet cloth
or put it in a glass of salted water and bring it and the child
immediately to your dentist office. The sooner you get to the
dentist, the better the chances of success. Successful
replantations are usually done within one hour of the
accident.
Don’t get excited and rush your child to the dentist and
forget the tooth. And don't try to clean the tooth off. What
you think is dirty may be soft tissue necessary for a
successful replant.
The younger the patient, the better chance of success.
Adult replants sometimes are successful but results are
usually not as long lasting.

Control measures for the
fall armyworm should be
taken when populations and
potential foliage loss indicate
the need. As a rule of thumb,
control is usually needed when
there are 3 or more worms per

THE SPEAKER REPORTS
By Bill Clayton
The situation attracted the
attention of several state
officials, including
Representative Senfronia
Thompson of Houston.
Representative Thompson
began working with Land
Commissioner Bob Armstrong
to devise a method whereby
Johnson and the other affected
families could obtain clear
title to their property-thus,
House Joint Resolution 117
was created.
The resolution calls for a
constitutional amendment to
be placed on the November 3,
INI ballot that would remedy
Johnson’s situation. The
amendment would authorize
the General Land Office
commissioner to issue
patents, or titles, on land
which private residents have
held in good faith and paid
taxes on fur at least 50 years.
Until the November
election, there is still some
uncertainty on the ownership
of Jessie Johnson’s land in
Leon County. However, it is
my conviction that the voters
will agree with the 67th
Legislature that
misconceptions of this nature
should be resolved as quickly
as possible and prevented
from reoccuring in the future.

adversely by tobacco smoke in
the environment.
According to the American
Lung Association of Texas it is
possible, though not proven,
that the changes which occur
in nonsmokers exposed to a
smoky environment for long
periods may improve when
the smoke is removed.
However, it is also possible
that the changes may lead to
further lung disease. More
research to required. What is
clear is that lungs do not
function normally when
forced to breathe smoky air.

But to exhale efficiently, the
lungs must be healthy and

After the person forcibly
inhales a deep breath, an
instrument called a
spirometer measures exactly
how fast and how much air to

Disturbances in the smallest
airways are measured at
precise points during the
exhalation - during the
middle half, for example, and
at one later point in the
exhalation.

The story of Jessie Johnson
to ore that members of the
67th Legislature will no doubt
remember for years to come.
Johnson was one of many
persons who came to Austin
during the session to ask for
assistance from the
Legislature.
An elderly farmer from
Leon County, Johnson lived
with his family on a piece of
land that he believed to be his
own. Over the years be made
improvements on the property
and paid all the necessary
taxes to maintain his
homestead. However,
because certain documents
were not processed correctly
at the time the land was
purchased, it was later
discovered that Johnson and
several other Leon County
residents did not have dear
title to their property.

ARMYWORM SEASON NEAR
From Gerdau Wooiam
Rat—if Ages!
It will soon be time to check
for armyworms. Small
grains, coastal bermuda,
forage sorghums and lawns
are especially susceptible to
damage by the fall armyworm
in late summer and fall during
periods of wet, mild weather.
The worms eat leaves and
immature seeds and often
devour plants down to the
ground.
Fall armyworms are
principally night feeders but
are also active on cloudy days.
They tend to hide deep in plant
growth during the day.
Grasses should be inspected
frequently and carefully to
detect armyworm activity, ft
to not uncommon to totally
miss an infestation until much
damage is done. This to
primarily because the small
worms consume very little
leaf tissue. During the 15-21
day worm stage,
approximately 85% of the
foliage consumption occurs
during the last 2 to 3 days.
Therefore, homeowners and
ranchers fail to notice
armyworms until they are
large, subsequently much
damage occurs before control
measures can be taken.
The fall armyworm moth
lays her eggs at night on
foliage in mines of as many
as 100 or more. Young worms
are less than ¥« inch long, but
they reach a length of
approximately 1H Inches
when mature. These worms
range in color from pale green
to almost black. Distinctive
markings on the fall
armyworm include 3 parallel
yellow lines extending along
