Radium to the Rescue.

State participation in care for health
is fortunately no new thing in America,
yet the purchase by New York state of
s225,0oo worth Of radium for the free
treatment of cancer derives interest
from the rarity and cost of the thera-
peuttc agent, the mysterious nature of
the disease and the fact that in the pur-
chase New York is a pioneer.
The surprising statement is made by
DR.. Gaylord. director. that cancer now
equals tuberculosis in Importance as
cause of death. To this evil eminence
1t has only lately risen, the cancer death
rate in 1917 having been 5.s per cent. OF
the total. against tuberculosis, 1913;
Bright's disease, 7.6, and apoplexy, 6.9.
But the registration area by no means
includes the whole country, and the
number of cancer victims rapidly in
creases, while that of tuberculosis
deaths more slowly declines.
An alternative to the knife, readily
available without charge, should greatly
aid the fight against cancer by encodr-
aging promptness in reporting and deal
ing with cases not too far advanced.
And a record OF 5000 deaths in year
in New York alone fully tustifies the
state in this extension of its policy Of
conserving the public health.

OATS BEST CROP
Statistics Show Advantages
Over Corn Growing.
On Comparatively Cheap Land In
Western Canada Farmers Get REQ.
ord Ylelds-cost Per Acre Much
Less Than Corn

How much more does It cost to
grow an acre Of corn than to grow an
acre Of oats7 To get proper COM
parison it Is necessary to take an IL
lustration from farm on which both
crops are grown successfully. An ex-
ample has just been brought to the
writer's attention Of the comparative
cost Of growing corn and oats on a
Minnesota farm. It is furnished BY
Albert Inner, well-known farmer in
Cottonwood county, Mimi, in an ar
hcle which appeared in the Cotton
wood Citizen.
Mr.. Inner says: II had curiosity
to know how much 1t would cost to
raise an acre of oats and corn. To
find out kept account, during the
year, Of the time required and the
cash expended to grow the above men-
toned crops" His figures show that
1t cost him $31. 40 to grow an acre of
corn and $18.13 Is to grow an acre of
pats, or difference of $500 an acre
In favor Of oats.
Provided the respective crop Yields
are not altogether out of proportion to
the cost Of growing the crop, this
seems to be good argument in favor
Of growing oats. But to grow oats
successfully 1t is not necessary to use
$3.50 or 5000 land. In western Canada
some Of the best oat-growing land in
the world can be bought for about 500
an acre. On this land good yields and
high quality of grain Is obtainable.
Fifty to sixty bushels to the acre
in properly prepared land is fair
average yield for oats in western Can
ada In abnormal season but yields of
up to 100 bushels, and even more. to
the acre Lave been frequent in good
years. The quality of oats grown in
western Canada is attested by the fact
that at all the international exhibit
lions for many years past oats grown
In western Canada have been award
ed the leading prizes. There is on
record oats grown in western Canada
that have weighed as much as As
pounds to the measured bustel and
the dominion grain inspector is author
tty for the statement that So per cent
Of the oats examined by him in west
ern Canada weigh more than AZ

Is "a pounds.

Exact Copy of Wrapper.
English Women in Wit.

One of the best-known women in
London's newspaper world, returning
from Birmingham by train and Ell
deavoring to make shorthand notes en-
route, was hopelessly interrupted by
q man On the opposite seat who per-
sisted in shouting his political opin-
ions to an acquaintance in the farthest
corner, says writer in the London
Evening News. At last he used a
phrase containing the word damn
and turned to apologize to the lady
for using such word
Don't mention it," she replied,
sweetly. Il have been mentally using
the word for the last hour"
And the newspapers of the other
passengers rustled through the laugh
ter Of their owners.

The Senate.

From the Indianapolis News.
One would judge from Senator Hard
ing's speech of acceptance that the can
didate has a very high opinion of the
United States Senate. Whether the
Senate is deserving Of admiration and
confidence or not depends on the men
who compose it. OF course the repub-
lican candidate was speaking OF the Sell
ate as at present constituted, and to
him it seems altogether admirable. He
spoke of it as eft to be the greatest
deliberative body Of the world and
said that 'its members are the desig-
mated sentinels on the towers OF consul
tutional government"
The Senate has it's place and its in
dispensable functions. The people see in
it a body that has sometimes served
them well. and sometimes not. Only the
other day the Senate refused to confirm
though it has not yet rejected-an ad-
mirable appointment because the APP.
pointee was personally Objectionable to
one of the senator's Of the state from
which he came. Many appointments,
some of them to very important posi-
tions, were left unconfirmed when the
Senate adjourned, the idea being that
it would be possible to hold them open
till it might be possible for the places
to be filled by republicans. "A reading
OF q book, entitled 1.-The Cleveland Era"
in the series known as the Chronicles OF
America, will serve to bring to mind the
struggle between Cleveland and the SEN
ate. in which. not the Senate, but the
president, stood for constitutional gov
eminent. The record of the upper house
OF congress is, on the whole, rather spot
ted. or its latest performance we do not
ROW speak. but would suggest that a
Senate autocracy. which is by no means
Impossible. would be quite as bad as an
executive 'autocracy, Of which the Sem
ate has complained. The relations be-
tween president and Senate might con-
ceivably be somewhat too friendly.
