Radill11l Is
Used First
Time Here

The only radium in Oregon,
outside of the city of Portland,
was used yesterday by DR.. E. e..
Fisher, Salem physician, in treat
ing a pre-cancerous growth on a
woman patient from Oregon City.
DR.. Fisher recently purchased 80
milograms, or about three-fourths
of grain of radium.
This amount, held in four tiny
silver needles, cost $4,000.
Whether the operation is sue
cessful or not can not be deter
mined for several weeks, DR.. Fish
er said.
Radium, which is one OF the S0A
odd elements which make up the
earth, is found most abundant
if the word might be used-in
Colorado and Utah. When mined,
it takes about 400 tons Of ore to
produce one gram, or Is grains, OF
radium.
Radium. which causes virtually
no sensation when applied, is used
in treating cancer, chronic ulcer,
catarrh, cataracts, certain blood
diseases and gland diseases, birth
marks, skin tuberculosis and
thickened skin diseases. 1t is espe-
cially valuable as curative for
chronic skin diseases.
Radium acts by destroying the
neclei of the cells of the growth.
1t was employed for the first time
in Salem yesterday.
