A WATERMELON IS MORE TASTY THAN A TASTY BITE

Where is an old southern saying that when the pregnant woman began to show, they would rub her belly to determine whether it was a boy or a girl. Boys sat in the belly like watermelons, girls sat round like pumpkins. Whether you are pregnant or not, nothing is better than a mouthful of cool, juicy , sweet watermelon on a hot July day. But more can be done with the beautiful fruit than slicing it up and letting the juice dribble down collected chins. RECIPES:

Cancer of Pancreas: The Quiet Killer

There aren't many headlines anywhere telling about the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the U.S., so if you are somewhere in the 60 to 80 age group, gobble up this information for the benefit of yourself and others about you.

Cancer of the pancreas strikes so often that over 30,000 otherwise healthy individuals in the U.S. and Canada die each year from this unfortunate disease.

One of the most delightful times for gardening in the High Plains area is in the autumn season.

The bright, crisp days of autumn, with our clear skies and more abundant rainfall, are made to order for easy gardening, with high quality produce. Some of the best tasting vegetables you can ever grow will be grown in the fall. We are now starting the season of planning and implementing a fall garden.
