S exually transmitted diseases (STDs) are some of the
most common contagious diseases in America. In
fact, approximately 12 million people are infected
with an STD each year. Fortunately, however, most
of the diseases can be cured if detected early.
Early detection is also important due to the fact that
some STDs can lead to permanent physical damage —
such as blindness, heart disease and cancer. And, if left
untreated, STDs can damage the female reproductive
organs and lead to fertility problems.
STDs can go undetected for
months, since symptoms often
develop slowly. And, such diseases
are often more difficult to detect in
women. But STDs cannot go away
on their own. So, it’s important to
sec your doctor regularly for a
physical examination.

Dowd said,
The department says the plan
is part of a larger streamlining
effort that could cut the payroll
by 11,000 people and save $3.6
billion over five years. The de
partment has llO,000 full-time
employees and a 1995 budget of
$67 billion.
The department says farmers
will be better served by fewer lo
cations, because service centers
for commodity programs, crop in
surance, loans and some conser
vation programs will be put un
der one roof. A new Consolidated
Farm Service Agency will do
most of the work of four.
But many people out in farm
country were skeptical.
“If this streamlines the situa
tion and doesn’t require a lot of
sacrifice, we’re all for it,” said
Greg Hicks, communications di
rector for the Farm Bureau in
Virginia, where the number of
office locations will drop from
111 to 54. “But we have a feeling
it’s really going to create a diffi
cult situation for some farmers.”
Virginia and the rest of the
South will account for more than
half of the 1,070 closings, which
will drop the number of locations
from 3,601 to 2,531. Georgia will
be hit hardest, losing 101 of its
193 offices. Texas follows, losing
98 offices, but will keep 219 — far
more offices than any other state.
The offices sprouted up be
cause of laws enacted in the De
pression era, when 6.8 million
farms operated. Today, the nation
has fewer than 2 million farms,
fewest since before the Civil War.
