POISONING By
FOOD CURED By
GRAHAM SERUM

Especial to The ArEus.)

Urbana, Ill, July 17.-Dr. Robert
Graham Of the department OF AMI.
NAL pathology Of the University OF
Illinois, who discovered botuifnns
antitoxin, in serum rushed to New
York City by airplane last lali 20
save the lives Of people who had
been poisoned by eating ripe olives,
has definitely found by experiment
tation that his serum when proper
ly administered will prevent pois-
oning.
DR.. Graham has found out that
this serum will successfully COM
bat forage or food poisoning OF farm
animals which has been definitely
established as q fatal disease. inc
results of his experiments are
given in q recent bulletin OF the
College of Agriculture.
The result of eating this forage
by animals is something similar TO
that which results when humans
eat incompletely sterilized ripe
olives. This serum, according 70
DR.. Graham, will prevent food
poisoning and fatal diseases OF AMI
mails caused by the eating OF psd
silage and other bad foods.
Works Against Two Poisons.
This poison in bad silage and
other foods is fatal. The poison
found in olives was really two
poisons, one stronger than the
other, but both dangerous. 1t was
necessary to find an antitoxin that
would act against both of them, be-
cause to find an anti-toxin that
would kill one poison only would
leave the other free to do its deadly
work. 1t was a difficult problem to
find out just how much stronger
one poison was than the other.
DR.. Graham made many expert
ments, using the antitoxin on
guinea pigs, after injecting the
olive poisoning. By these expert
ments DR.. Graham says that his
discovery, when properly admins
tered, will prevent death by poison
ing. This work done by DR.. Graham
is the first of its kind in the coun-
try.
Tells of Development and Sale.
Food poisoning deals principally
with the disease commonly referred
to as bitulism. The poison is de-
veloped on animal feed, including
ensilage, wheat screenings, ground
oats, oat hay, or other feeds, dur
ing the time it is stored before be-
ing fed. The poison is the result Of
bacterial growth upon the feed and
may take place without any visible
change in the feed.
The results of the work reported
in the circular indicate that feed
which has produced illness and
death in animals may be fed with
out great danger if certain prelim-
mary treatment is given it. Cook
ing to the point Of boiling, exposure
to sunlight for two or three days,
thorough washing in water, are
procedures that are recommended.
In many outbreaks it is difficult to
detect the feed involved, SO it is
advisable to take a complete
change in feed.
Asset to Veterinarians.
Veterinarians may find botulinus
anti-to1in a very valuable asset in
combating food or forage poison
ing in domestic animals, according
to DR.. Graham. 1t can be obtained
from the university experiment
station, until available from COM
mercial sources, at the cost of pro-
duction, two cents per cubic cent?
meter.

SIMPLE JUSTICE


Sooner or later congress must decide whether or
not the country is to pay bonus to our young men
who defended their native land on tie bloody fields
of France .H& as se aH
There is some opposition to the suggestion because
the total runs into millions. aD
B But here are two pictures, fairly stated-take
your choice. s44 -.s ls1sg ..zlez 4. aa1
First. One young man remained at home, as it
was necessary that some should do. He worked in
untion factories, or in the ship yards or in any of
the thousands Of places where work was required.
He received high wages-probably higher than ever
before-a good home in which to live, enjoyed his
hours Of leisure and recreation, and was in per-
sonal danger at any time. He made money.
Second. Another young man went to the war,
as it was also necessary that some should do He
gave up his position at rood wages forsook his
of enjoyment exchanged comfortable home for the
rgors of camp life, endured the horrors Of the
bloodiest in history, faced the dangers of sick
and disease, and received only pittance in pay
from the government. He returned to find another
man in his old jo md in most cases had to be con-
tent with what he could get IIe gave from to two
years Of of the best part of his life to his country
and financially lost money.
Should he, or should he not, receive some ad-
ditiona recompense from the people whom he so
valianty served, when the taxation to be required
for this purpose would be levied upon him well as
upon others? ,.as,.
Just what is simple justice?

AS THE ALMIGHTY STARTED THEM

1t is observed that agitation has started again
for the daylight saving fad. Having been defeated
in foistng it upon the nation faddists would like to
fasten it upon states wherever they can command
the strength, But is it hardly probable they will ac
complsh anything.
But why should those who want to get up
hour earlier than the rest of the people want to leave
their comfortable beds invoke law to make the lat
ter do likewise themselves? That savors too much
of despotism. Morever Time itself has set natural
divisions of the day. When the sun is at the zenith
the most natural time to stop while for rest and
refreshment. And with that as starting point the
day is divided more reasonably for observance in
arranging daily tasks.
There is arising now another class of folks who

INDEPENDENCE AND PERSONAL PROFIT

Through an experience and observation extend
ing sixty years in active political life this editor
has observed frequently that some of the most in
and personal considerations rather than by any
altrustic or moral sense. When their interests or
hatreds lay with independence, they could be in
dependent until the cows came home" When their
own interests their likes subserved by party
regularity, they party regularity personifed;
and they wanted everybody else to be regular.
In other words independence was cloak for
personal profit
