Rddium In Cancer

The motive power OF this column is
optimism. We believe in the power of
publicity. But we deplore false optim,
ism and false publicity.
The current publication of falsely Op-
timistic accounts Of magical and certain
cure" of cancer by radium is unfortunate
to say the least. The fact that eminent
physicians are quoted is still more un.
fortunate. Their statements may not
be false; but false deductions and ex-
aggeTatiOns are being drawn from them.
The situation at present is not unlike
the history of the flying machine. Sens
ible people did not sell their horses and
automobiles Immediately Wright made
a successful flight. Whatever their
dreams Of the future might be, they
realized that period of most hazardous
experimentation must precede the per-
fecti0n of this new means of locOmotiOn.
The announcement of ella m of new
cure for some disease which has baff1ed
medical science unsettles the reason OF
large portion of the public. Such aban-
don tried and efficient remedies upon
the first suggestion that a better one
may have been discovered.
Cold-blooded analysis of results of
treatment with radium indicates that it
is useful in a fair proportion Of cases.
Equally good results are claimed for the
X-Ray treatment, which is more avail
able. Neither has shown results, as yet,
which justify abandonment of surgical
removal of cancer0us growths. The Lon
don Radium Institute has had more ex-
perience with radium in cancer than
anyone. The directors may be assumed
to be optimistic, having purchased more
radium than any other institution. In
spite of very favorable experience with
radium, however, operation is advised
by them in all operable cases.
Common sense and scientific consider
atiOns demand, for the present, as COM
plete removal by surgical operation as
possible. Following this, ra6inm and
X-Ray treatment assist in removing
cancerOus tissues which are indistin-
guishable from healthy tissues, even up
on microscopic examination.

at the depot he was suspected as being

alias Alfred Moore and the other gave
his name as Harry Wise missing

They were taken to jefferson and bound

Annual Fair Meetin0.

According to the report of the secre-
meeting Of the WatertOwn Inter County
Fair association Friday night, the or
ganizatiOn is in first class shape, uespite
the fact that several hundred dollars were
expended the past year in permanent
improvements and in paying off some of
the old Indebtedness. The meeting was
called to order by President G. NJ. Gahl-
man. After the reading and filing of
the reports, the election of officers took
place, all the old officers being reelected
without opposition:
President-G. NJ. Gahlman, Watertown.
Vice President-H j. Grell, johnson

Secretary Charles W. Harte, Water
town.
Treasurer Charles E. Frey, Water
town.
Superintendent of Speed - Charles
Mulberger, Watertown.

lazhn, Robert Dent, WatertOwn.
After the election of officers several

G. W. Harte, Emil Tanck. H. G. CRUDE,
E. F. Wieman. C. A. Kading, F. w. Leh-

rising vote of thanks was rendered

making the 1913 fair success, and es,
pecially the out of town officials, III. T.

The Most Expensive Advertising.

Few persons appreciate the enormous
cost of advertising popular product be-
fore it obtains popularity. One of the
most successful advertisers in the
country, whose income reaches hundreds
of thousands of dollars annually, says
that he wasted at least quarter of a
million dollars "befOre he learned the
advertising game" He estimates that
he spent this amount on circulars, gaudy
Autographs, sign boards and street car
advertising, out OF which he received so
little benefit, as far as he could trace it,
that he regarded the expenditure as
money pretty nearly wasted,
II finally reached the conclusion that
the best way to spend my money was in
straight advertising in the newspapers,
the weeklies and the magazines with
an established list of readers, regular
sale, on the news stands; and fair
chance for me to follow up my money
and see what it produced.
That is the reason why no more of my
appropriation is going into the fanciful
outside things in the advertising line.
| am sticking to the legitimate.
1t would be interesting to note the
observations of other advertisers on this
subject Leslles Weekly.

Tract of Land

w. II. WoOdard, Ex mayor Herman

KadIng were in Madison Tuesday for
another conference with the beard Of
control to urge the building Of the new
home for the feeble minded here and
were told that the amount wanted for
the land was TOO high. The board wOnid
not pay over $50 an and average OF 1883
per acre was asked The home will be
built at Racine. Hon. ?. H.Lindley of
the board having made the following
statement:
The State Board of Control has just
finished tour through the southern
part of the state and has about decided
TO locate the next State Home for the
Feeble Minded in Racine County. They
were fortunate in getting tract Of land
several hundred acres, for $l00 an acre.
No commission. The State Board of
Control considers it great bargaln-
Most Of the towns that wanted the home
lost out because they asked 100 much
for the land. In most places they visited
the real stale agents or the overs OF the
land wanted from 500 to 5000 an acre
for the land. The tract bought was OWN
by two brothers, bachelors, and wanted
to retire. Tie fact that the State
Board of Control has covered most Of the
southern part of the state and land in
Racine County all under cultivation at
5 GO an acre is certainly a bargain.
The board now has options on the
four farms near Watert0Wn they dtslIe
at the following prices per acre:
Josephine Brook, 235 acres 100. $140
Hartwig Estate. 23l acres ..-...... $40
