as result Of the virulent attack that

face death from bullets instead of
from the equally deadly disease germs.

MARTYRS DOCTORS STUDYING
SICKNESS"

Yet this gifted and fortunate man in
the very prime of life gave up every
thing in the cause of science. In his
Investigations Of cancer he himself
became inoculated with the germs,
and, though a gallant fight was made
for him, his life paid the forfeit. The
details Of the story are yet fresh in
the public mind-the anxious attention
of other cancer experts in trying to
save their comrade, the application Of
a newly discovered serum and the
false hopes this for time aroused,
the apparent rallying Of the patient
and his trip to the south, the devotion
Of his wife and the inevitable end
sympathetically noted by newspaper
readers Of two continents. That is the
story, and it makes one proud of his age.
The Battle Against Yellow Fever.
Almost equally well known is the
case Of the noble corps Of American
physicians who robbed yellow fever Of
its terrors. 1t was but short time
after the close of the Spanish-Ameri-
can war that the United States gov
eminent undertook to stamp out the
plague that was the scourge Of her own
possessions in Porto Rico a&d Panama,
also Of Cuba, for which Sne felt her.
self responsible, as well as Of Central
and South America, where her call
was only that Of common humanity.
To cope with the disease the war de-
partment sent DR.. Walter Reed, spe-
cialist in yellow fever, who was assist
ed by DR.. James Carroll, DR.. Jesse w.
Lazear and DR.. Aristides Agramonte,
a Cuban, who, having had the fever,
was an immune. These physicians
worked on the mosquito theory, which
had just been promulgated by DR.. Car
los Finley Of Havana.
To test the matter definitely as to
whether mosquito that had bitten a
yellow fever patient could transmit
the disease 1t was necessary that hui
man subjects should submit them
selves to incubation. Following the
splendid scientific code that physicians
should not expose others to dangers
they would not themselves take, the
doctors offered their own bodies as the

that seven European doctors had sue

Not only is the age Of heroism

an assistant of Thomas A. Edison.
Professor Fuchs believed that the X
ray might be used in curing cancer and
skin diseases and to test the matter
as to the influence Of the horoscope
on the flesh began experimenting upon
himself. He started with one hand,
on which warts soon formed, and he
was compelled to have thumb ampu-
tated. AS his experiments progressed
other amputations were necessary un-
til the entire hand was gone. Further
tests on his body resulted in death.
The other cases were similar. In one
both hands were sacrificed by the dar-
ing Investigator, and even then he di-
rected that he be made the subject of
still further experiments. Through the
sacrifice Of these and other lives, how
ever, the danger of using the mysteri
Gus rays was fully defined. It was dis
covered that lead is nonconductor,
and from this a safe method of en-
ploying the light was devised. It
should be borne in mind that the dan

time is in no danger. 1t is the opera

known that lime is IN essential food

known that old WORKOUT lands are
extremely deficient in lime, and that

lime Is q for mthat Is not disable by
growing crops.
Farmers Bulletin No. 124, U. s.

the applications of lime increased the
yields The best yields were
obtained with the lime In the form
of carbonate, the finely ground 'oys-
ter shells standing first Lime
with fertilizer was more profitable
than depending upon fertilizer
alone"
This new fertilizer which presents
lime in it's most disable form Is made
by a new process Of burning oyster
shells and using a burner that can
supply potash. The result Is a high
grade fertilizer costing the consum-
er only $500 per ton. 1t reclaims
