results as have been obtained in the

present time a large number OF those
patients who have been treated are
showing marked Improvement.
This treatment has been used for
years and has given better results
than any other known treatment. The
chaulmoegra seeds are crushed and
boiled in water, after which the oil is
extracted. While I am not positive, |
believe the treatment is in vogue at
the Molokai settlement"
Mr.. Clegg says that the treatment
may be administered to patient in
any stage of the disease and that It
may be applied internally or exter
nally. Although 90 persons have been
released In the Philippines as appar-
emily cured, they doubtless are kept

The medical profession and leprosy
experts are by no means ready to
hail the cflaulmoogra oil treatment as
a sure cure, or even as a permanent
cure in isolated cases. but merely
agree that the effects following the
new form of administering the oil by
hypodermic injections is given great
to persevering work
along the same lines. ..r=~ ~.

there has been talk of war between
Japan and the United States. for such
talk is silly. The two countries are

In an effort to aid the Industrial
Accident board in obtaining data on
accidents, the Public Utilities Com
mission voted at its meeting this aft
ernoon to furnish the board with a
transcript of all the proceedings of
accident investigations held by the
commission. The board on accident
investigation was present at the meet

Forbes stated that it was the wish of
the utilities commission to work along
similar lines with the board whenev;

work has to be covered by both bod

accidents.
Oftentimes when the work is not
duplicated there is chance of conflict
in the judgment passed on accidents
by the accident beard and the utilities
commission, and it was with this in
mind that the meeting was called.
The early part of the meeting was
given over to general discussion Of

Jersey, and Texas handling approximate
iy l.5oo cars Apiece. The other States
grow tomatoes in smaller quantities. But
in certain districts such as West Tennes-
see. the crop is of great local impoI-
lance.
The bulletin presents figures showing
that total of twelve thousand cars
were moved; but this by NO means rep
resents the entire tomato crop. since An
effort was made to exclude those going
to canneries and catsup factories. When
demand for tomatoes in the markets is
heavy. it is more profitable to ship the
tomatoes which were originally intended
for the canneries. but II the market Is
weak. larger quantities are offered for
canning.
There are certain localities where it
is more profitable to raise Tomatoes
for canning than for table use. New
York. Delaware. and Ohio put the bulk
of their production into the can, so that
the total used for this purpose Is more
than that shipped for table use.
Picked When Green.
Most Of the table tomatoes are picked
when green and wrapped in paper to
ripen on the way to market in ventilated
cars. Texas for a number of years has
preferred to send its crop to market
picked when ripe and shipped In iced
cars Near many cities large quantities
of tomatoes are shipped when FULLY
ripe by electric lines. trucks. and other
conveyances
