This
Tuesday photo shows an exterior view of the Baker
Commodities transfer station in Hanford, Calif., where a dairy cow with mad cow disease
was discovered. It was the first new case of mad cow
disease in the U.S. since 2006, but health authorities said Tuesday the
animal never was a threat to the nation's food supply. The
infected cow, the fourth ever discovered in the U.S., was found
as part of an Agriculture Department surveillance program that
tests about 40,000 cows a year for the fatal brain disease.

Nurse frequently during the first few days because the
more often you nurse, the more quickly your matured milk
will come in and the more milk you will produce. During
the early days while your milk production is still
developing, a well-intentioned but misguided relative
might suggest offering formula to your baby “until you
have sufficient milk”. Don’t listen! Milk is produced on
demand, therefore, to make more, you need to nurse your
baby more. The suckling action of your baby tells your
body to make more milk.

contact the breastfeeding peer counselor at the Logan
County Department of Public Health, 217-735-2317, ext.

Tuesday evening the Hartsburg-Emden Stags went up
against the Mount Pulaski Hilltoppers. The game quickly became
a pitching battle as each team's pitcher drew strike after
strike. In the end Hartem took the game 2-0. Above, the Stags huddle following a
three up, three down inning
versus the Hilltoppers.
