Cancer Immunity Hoped.

New York, Aug. 16-The Rockefeller
institute announced Sunday a discov-
cry by two of its investigators where
by immunity from cancer, it is hoped,
may be obtained The investigation
was conducted by Dr. Murphy and Dr.
John J. Morton, over a period of two
years. They discovered that in the
white lympth cells of the blood there
are the necessary factors in making
animals immune fro mcancer. A de-
cided increase of the white lympth
cells gives absolute immunity, the ply
sicians declare. The Investigators
treated several mice with serum of
lympoid tissue and say the number of
white lympth cells in the animals al
most doubled within a few days. The
increase of the cells can either be nat
ural or through the injection of lympth
tissue.

The Steel Industry.

The steel industry developed new
phase. A high premium was estab-
lished on open hearth steel. The steel
companies bid upon 100000 tons steel
rounds, one eastern plant quoting
upon $4,000 tons in one day. Steel
for high explosive shells is now held
at $3.50 to 30 pound, against $3.50
to So pound month ago. A further
advance Is probable next week.
Russia will pay cash at New York
for the rails recently ordered. Sew
eral shells contracts for Great Britain
and Russia were closed. France
bought 5000 tons blooms, while Italy
wants $4,000 tons small ingots, 10000
tons of rails as well as steel scrap and
pig iron. West Autsar1ia ordered TO-.
900 tons rails, while India, China and
Japan bought more American tin
plate. The Union Pacific Is to buy s.
900 cars.
More life was evident in pig iron
with sales Of $4,000 to 10000 tons.

SHORTAGE IN IDAHO TREASURY.
Investigation Shows Former Treasurer
Began Taking Cash During His
First Term.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. 16.-An additional
shortage of $11,171 is uncovered in

the manipulations of o. v. Allen, de-
faulting state treasurer, and his form.
er deputy Fred M. Coleman, both of
whom are serving indeterminate SEN
fences in the state penitentiary as self.
confessed embezzlers; and the end
not yet.
This announcement Is made by
James S. Bogart, expert accountant
directed to establish definitely, If pos.
sible, the total shortage SO that the
state can recover from Aliens and
Coleman's bondsmen, in report to
these two officials Saturday.
The shortage found by Alex. p
Ramstadt, president of the public util
tiles commission, when he first took
charge of the treasury department
after Allen and Coleman had looted
the trust funds, was $92,517. With the
added shortage found by Mr.. Bogart
the total shortage is $103,688.
A significant feature of the Bogart
report is that the shortages discovered
date back to 1912 In making his in
vestigation Mr.. Ramstadt did not &c
back that far. The treasury was there
fore being looted during the first term
of o. v. Allen, as well as during his
second term.

Southern Grain Crop Increases.

The grain crop of the south this
year will exceed in value by several
hundred million dollars the total Of
the most valuable cotton crop ever
produced by this section, says the
Baltimore Manufacturers Record.
This remarkable fact is due to an in
crease in grain production through
out the south, which will demon
strate what this section is capable
of doing in the development of d.
versified farming. According to the
forecast of grain production for the
country, based on conditions July 1,
the production of grain in the south
ern states for this year will be l.
$40, 100000 bushels, or gain of $780,
600, 900 bushels over last year. II to
the figures covering wheat, corn and
oats. we properly add the rice crop
of 30,000,000 bushels, the total grain
for the south this year will be l.
SIC, 200, 900 bushels, and as this years
rice crop exceeds by 100000 BUSH
els last years, we would have a to-
tai increase of grain in this section
of 292, 100000 bushels.

Dried Vegetables.

Sliced or cut vegetables dried by
special processes, so that they will
keep for long periods in various eli
mates and also be economical to trans
port, are now being manufactured;
and the United States army is trying
out quantities of them in the hope
that they will solve the problem of
furnishing good vegetables at reason
able rates to the troops at distant
posts, says Saturday Evening Post.
The process is called dehydrating,
meaning that the water in the vege-
tables is removed. Before cooking,
the vegetables are soaked in water un-
til they take up as much moisture as
they had when fresh. The soldiers
have not objected to dehydrated po-
tatoes and onions, and soldiers in prac-
tical campaigning have always been
found to be quick and keen critics of
new food schemes. For one thing,
these prepared vegetables look almost
exactly like fresh vegetables after the
cook has fixed them up, and the taste
has not been found to be materially
changed.
! Potatoes and onions are the favor
lite vegetables of commissary officers,
dAu SO LuS ICStS nave UG6u I'll
those; but dehydrated carrots, corn,
beets, tomatoes and turnips are also
available. Several processes, each
either patented or secret, have been
developed to extract the water from
the vegetables without injuring the
texture or framework of the sliced
goods.
Large amounts of water are taken
from all the vegetables. One pound
of dehydrated potatoes represents six
and half pounds of fresh potatoes,
and an equal amount when prepared
for cooking, and one pound of dehy-
drafted onions represents 10 pounds
of fresh onions. Consequently, deny
drafting is not only valuable by max
| ing it possible to keep the food, but
helps greatly in the transportation
| problem. Great quantities of canned
vegetables were used in the Spanish
war in spite Of transportation trou-
bles, and the new idea should be of
immense value in another campaign.
Attempts have been made to serve
the troops with some form of dried
vegetables, but in the past desic-
Gated form was tried. Desiccated
vegetables are fresh vegetables dried
and powdered, and perhaps partly
cooked. Such vegetables keep and are
easy to transport; but trouble comes
in getting the men to eat them.
In the Philippines desiccated vege-
tables were served to the soldiers, but
they would not eat the mush, because
it did not look or taste like the real
thing. The new system, which deliv-
ers the prepared foods sliced or cut
in fairly large pieces, overcomes the
objection.
