RELATIONSHIP FOUND BE.
TWEEN TUBERCULOSIS
AND CANCER.

Or. Samuel G. Dixon, Pennsyi.
vania Commissioner Of Health,
with Drs. Allen Smith and Her.
bert Fox, has found a relation
ship between tuberculosis and
cancer which will throw tight on
the prevention and cure Of the
latter disease Injections of fat
obtained from tubercIe baciIli

is now we'll established that tu-

by nutrltional treatment with
out entirely n%egIecting the To-
cal condition), if not too
long neglected. The new
found, or rather newly demon
strated, relationship between
consumption and cancer should
lead to the consideration Of can
e as a nutritionaI disease, in
which the abnormal cellular
growth is to be regarded as a
result Of disorganized nutrition,
not as the real disease. We no
longer expect to cure consump-
ton only by killing the germ,
which is the incident rather than
the cause of the disease, and
continued investigation of cam
Ger will lead to the conclusion
that it, too is a nutritlonal dis
ease, to be cured in the same
way, as /! have long maintained
In these hints. Tuberculosis and
cancer are to be prevented by
maintaining a normal condition
Of the nutrition, and cured by
early treatment in restoring nor

MATTER in
GREEN PEAS.

It was recently demonstrated
at an exposition In New York
that enough coloring matter Is
contained In a can Of green peas
to dye a handkerchief a deep
copper colSu 1t Is not illegal
to use certain dyeing and pre-.
serving materials in canned
foods If they are labeled as the
law requires. Appeal to the eye
and sense of taste are not to be
ignored, but so long as people
prefer denatured flour and de-
natured rice because they look
prettier and bright green canned
goods because they look prettier
1t Is Impossible to have good nu-
triton with good health. 1t
should be possible to get unpol-
ished rice anywhere cheaper
than the polished, and It should
be possible to buy entire wheat
anywhere, but merchants can
not afford to keep such choice
foods because there is little de-
mand for them, owing to the
lack Of such knowledge as Is
daily supplied in these Hints.

TWo-MEAL PLAN FOR Of
FIcE WORKERS

Do you recommend the two
meal-a-day plan for a young
man holding an office position?
a reader asks. Yes. When the
two-meal system is adopted, 1t
Is best to divide tho 81 hours
more evenly by eating at ten
and at five, if this is convenient.
II not, 1t is best to eat an apple
or a little knocked cabbage or
pineapple or an orange before
leaving home latter taking a
quart of hot water or lemonade
on arising). Eat the principal
meal at noon if an hour is al
lowed. but if this time Is short,
eat a Eight meal, which should
consist of sugar fruits largely
or rice with cream, or slightly
cooked eggs with toast, and the
meal containing bread or cereal
in other form in the evening,
because cereals especially
should be eaten slowly. One of
the benefits of the two-meaI
plan for a young person en-
ployed in business not common
ly urged, is that 1t avoids the
Injury done by the hurry Of
the morning and allows the
best energies to be given to the
mornings work. The sensation
of hunger that comes about the
middle of the forenoon soon
passes off as the habit of eat
ing only two regular meals is
acquired. The fact that one
may eat as much at two meals
as he formerly did at three is
no argument against the two
meal plan.
One of the commonest causes
Of disease in general and of
those called aIimentary in par
ticuIar is eating a fresh meal
while a part of the preceding
is still in the stomach, perhaps
in a state of fermentation.

TWO-JUDGE CASE.

The Supreme Court this week de
cided to read into the law the right in
depreciation regarding the election of
District Judges. AT the last session
of the Legislature bill was passed
making judicial district of Lyon and
Churchill counties, and designating
supposedly one Judge for each dis
trict in the State outside of Washoe
county. which was to have two Judges.
Upon examining the law it was found
that it provided for two Judges from
all districts except Washoe, and only
one for that district. 1t was PLAIN
that an error has been made by some
clerk, as this was not the intent of the
law at all, and the Supreme Court has
Strengthened the matter out so candi-
dates will know what the law really
means. AT that the mistake should
never have occurred, and precedent
has been established that it will be
poor policy TO follow in the future.

NEVADA STATE
FAIR DATES
SET FOR YEAR.

The Nevada State Agricultural So
ciety has set the date for the fair this
year from September p to 20, inclu
sive, and so announces in an advertise
ment elsewhere in this issue Last
year Lyon county was well repre-
sented at the State Fair and received
a large number of premiums, lacking
only point or two of taking the
sweepstake prize for the best county
exhibit in the State. We are in
formed by Mr. George Friedhoff and
others that Lyon county is now pre-
pairing to make even a better display
this year. Crops are good in Lyon
county this year; some fine grain,
hay, vegetables and fruit are growing
and the growers are taking more in
terest this year in preparing an exhibit.
Growers of nice grain should cut some
OF it long before heading and hang it
away. head down, until called for by a
committee or representative who will
prepare it for exhibition The State
Association is making every effort to
have all counties do their best with a
live stock display. Last year Mr., Ray
Mackey, of Reno, took prizes on his
Berkshire swine to the amount of $l26,
and also won the silver cup trophy
offered by the Berkshire Association
of Springfield, ILL., Mr.. Mackey's
hogs. will not be eligible to compete
for this trophy this year, so there will
be chance for Lyon county in this
line. 1t is expected that live stock ex-
hbits will be on hand from California,
Oregon, Idaho and Utah, and it would
be a great card for Nevada and Lyon
county in particular, if she could wrest
the premiums from such competitors,
There is to be some high-class rae
ing at the Fair also, and there will be
$1,000 in purses hung up for running,
trotting, pacing and harness races.
There are some horses in Lyon
county that ought to get into the
money this year, and probably will if
their owners will take the interest to
put them in shape.

Warren was known here quite wei.
and few months ago leased the bar
in the Mason Hotel at Mason. Later
on he went to Aurora and opened a
saloon and restaurant and his wife
conducted a lodging house in the
camp. Mr.. Warren was a native of
Alababma, aged IS years and some
months. He had resided in Gold6eld
and Tonopah before coming to the
Yerington district, and was member
of the Moose Lodge of Tonopah His
funeral took place in Aurora Wednes-
day and was very largely attended.
Deputy Sheriff Minton has been
having his hands full of late. After
the shooting of Warren it is reported
that Chinaman shot a Bohunk in
the leg in row over a game of cards
The deputy also arrested a Bohunk
who was raising a rumpus and landed
him in Jail after an attempt by friends
to take the man away from the off
GER Later on the deputy caught
Bohunk fourishng a gun and arrest
ed him. Friends tried to interfere in
this arrest also and Minton dispersed
the crowd by pulling his gun and TAX
ing several shots at the parties who
were butting in. They hit the high
spots down the trail and have not
since been seen.
There is considerable talk in Aurora
of organizing "6Ol' for the purpose
of cleaning up the town. There has
been much friction between the Bo-
hunk element and the American labor
ing men, and it is more than likely
that Aurora will not much longer be
congenial place for the foreign ele-
ment to sojourn.

long with a beam of o5 feet 25s inches
and a mean draft of % feet inches
From the main battery of 10 l4-inch
guns the Nevada" will be able to
throw $4,000 pounds of metal at one
discharge, each gun throwing shell
$50 pounds heavier than the l2inch
guns now in the naval service, and
each gun developing a muzzle energy
of 66,000 foot tons, H,000 foot tons
more than the 12-inch guns. The NE

bines. The boilers will be fired exclu-
sively with oil and the vessel will carry
no coal The estimated speed is 20H
knots, but it is probable that this will
be considerably exceeded. The armor
and armament of the Nevada" are
considerably in excess of any of her
predecessors and involves new de-
