ANOTHER CANCER CURE

The reported cure of malignan
tumor with radium at the Fowler Hos
piral, in New York, will probably ex
cite hopes which the future will moi
confirm The malignant tumor" in
question was sarcoma inclosed in the
abdominal cavity--in other words, a
deep-ssated cancer. The radium was
mixed with gelatine and injected here
and there in various parts of the
tumor. In a few weeks the sarcoma
cells had all disappeared and nothing
was left but mass of scar tissue. This
account chimes with others which have
been given out from time to time OF
wonderful things accomplished with
radium for the cure of cancer, but in
the long run all such reports seem to
be Disappointing The wonders have
either. been greatly magnifed or they
have not happened at all The sad
truth of the case is that physicians do
not as yet know either the cause or the
cure of cancer. 1t is almost the only
disease which has thus far resisted
modern methods of research and which |
still flourishes in horrid security from
the attacks of science Against cancer

cancer usually begins with a hard,
ntractable lump somewhere on the
ody. 1t is as innocent as a lamb and
ainless, at first In this state of rris-
inc innocuousness, if the surgeon has
chance at it, the cancer can be extir-
ated Afterward it is generally too
tie. The lesson of this is pretty obvi-
us. If person discovers an abnor-
lal lump on his body, no matter
here, the best thing he can do is to
lie him forthwith to a competent sur
con and find out what it means. 1t
lay mean nothing. 1t may mean an
cifient cancer The news that cancer

lred with radium, is, of course, en-
but the probability is that 9.

ately science will find cure for this
cad disease, but thus far its only de-
ndable resource is the knife.

Cotton Seed Products.
Their Value Discussed by One
Who Has Given the Subject
Much Study and Considera-
ton and Knows What He is
Talking About.

l.. W. Haskell, vice-president of the

has given most interesting inter-
view or the use of cotton seed pro-
ducts throughout the world and
points out this redounding material

Mr.. Haskell has been operating
mills at Savannah and Atlanta and
later from New York city for the past
twenty years and talks interestingly
of the rise of this former refuse
product from $S and $40 ton to
recent times when they sold from SIS
to $50.
''This." said Mr.. Haskell, sis due
to the increased use of products and
the utilization OF by-products.
"Oil formerly was used for soap,
now is used for lard.
Meal was used entirely for fertil-
izers. Now about one-third is used
for feed.
'Hulls were formerly used for fuel,
and now are fed to ut least 2O0, 900

Further developments are pend
ing in the line of making cattle and
horse feed, which will reduce the i'm
portation of feeds into the State
This and the use of oil in lard are ex-
pected to advance the value of cot
ton seed products materially in the
next few years, if the advanced oil
mills can get the cooperation of
farmers, who are the principal con-
sumers in our country. The more
hearty the cooperation, the sooner
the development, and, in conse-
quence, higher prices for cotton
seed"
| Mr. Haskell says that large com.
panies, which are sometimes looked
upon with disfavor, certainly have
done this for the industry and foI
the increased value OF cotton seed.
! Continuing, he said:
"They have introduced improved
methods, which have been taken uT
by all mills, which have resulted il

Lee and Lincoln.
News and Observer, 18th.


On the nineteenth day of February
the General Assembly of North Caro-
lima adjourned in honor of Robert E.
Lee, that being his birthday. Yester-
day was the hundredth anniversary
of the birth of Abraham Lincoln and
the General Assembly adjourned in
honor of the man who was President
of the United States while General
Lee was fighing against the armies
of Lincoln to secure Southern in
dependence The resolution hOnOring
Lincoln was adopted by an unani-
nous vote in the very capital where,
on the twentieth of May. 1861, the
resolutions were adopted by which
North Carolina terminated it's con-
nection with the Federal Government
in accordance with the right which
inhered in each of the thirteen original
colonies.
The simple statement that the
North Carolina Legislature within Il
month of the honor to Lee paid IL
like honor to Lincoln, is eloquent of
the healing of Time and the per-
manency of the Union. Confederate
soldiers voted for the Lincoln resolu
tion. The day will come in America
when Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson
Davis, Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S.
Grant will be honored on every foot
of American soil because of their
ability, their courage, and their de-
votion to the Right "as God gave
them to see the Right"

Emil Oberhoffer, the conductor Oh the
Minneapolis Symphony orchestra, Is
one of the most interesting muslcal
figures in the United States. Born near
Munich, Bavaria. where his father was
a we'll known director of music, Mr..
Oberhoffer came to Minneapolis ABOUT
IA years ago. and at once took ms
place among the prominent musicians
of that city. In his few years resi-
dence there, he has become the most
important factor in music in the MID
die west to whom is due, more than
to any other one man, the placing OF
Minneapolis in it's present undisPuted
position as the musical center Oh the
Northwest.
This Mr.. Oberhoffer has accomplish
ed by indefatigable energy, persistence,
dauntless hope and determination, I'M
aided by any procedure to which the
severest musical Puritan could apply
the term of charlatanry. Mr.. Oberhot-
fer is q man of the highest artistic
ideals, yet thoroughly imbued with the
practical realization that ideals are not
attained by idealizing, but by doing.
The result of his few years work IN
Minneapolis animated by constant IN
dustry and personal development, has
been the establishment of the sym
phony orchestra. 1t is a significant fact
that the members of this organization
over whom he exercises rigid discipline,
are individually and collectively loyalty
devoted to him.
No programs, either orchestral or
choral in the country, excel in quality
those given every season in Minneapo-
lis under the baton of this accomplish
ed conductor, and his youth, ardor and
sthe affection accorded him by the group
ssof citizens who constitute the board OF
directors OF the orchestral ASSOCIATION
make the promise of his musical future
almost illfmitable.
