WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.-The bureau or

questions asked in the circular are:
Does the crow inflict serious damage
upon corn, either when sprouting OF

WAR ON THE APPENDIX.
II is Taken Out When Other Operations
Are Performed.

Cleveland. Dec. 26.--They are cutting
away appendices by the thousands In
these days Of the surgeons knife as
corrective for legion Of diseases. When
surgeon nowadays gets anywhere
near the useless remnant, he yanks II
out for good luck.
"Of course he always has the con-
sent Of the patient before the opera
ton" explained a Lakeside hospital
surgeon. Most people when they know
they are TO be operated on in that re-
gion, ask Of their own accord II the ap-
pendix cannot be removed. If they do
not, a good surgeon regards it as his
duty TO suggest this.
YES. we'll get most OF 'em before
the process Of evolution has chance
entirely TO drop them. AT the pres
ent rate most people will be operated
upon for something or other before
they die. Surgeons have been getting
hold Of every appendix possible In this
way for FIVE or six years and the NUM-
Der they've taken out is incalculable.
/ There is hope that appendicitis Is
idoomed TO become a rare disease
It has been suggested that the OPP
Grafton to remove the appendix be per-
formed upon babies at birth. The
useless appendix, however, is not suf-
ficient menace to the human race. sur
Igeons say, to warrant the operation Tor
, its removal unless necessary.

What the Pure Food Board really did,

know that there is anything injurious
