In the Journal of the American Med
zeal association of March 25. 1922
vol. rs. page $50. | published for the
first time the startling Improvement in
cancer of the breast which could only
be explained as the result of the cam
paign of education in which all women
have been informed that the moment
they feel lump in the breast they
should consult their medical advisor
and have a careful examination.
My figures were as follows:
In the last 100 women whom | had
seen because of some complaint in one
or both breasts in more thar one-half
after a careful examination. nothing
serious was found, and operation was
advised against. These women either
had pain in the breast or thought they
felt a lump. On examination either no
lump was felt or it was simply part of
a lumpy breast, which is q very com
mon condition and has no relation to
cancer.
OF those whose Jumps were cancers
practically all involved the glands and
their chances Of a cure were less than
20 per cent.
Lumps No Criterion
Now. among those whose Jumps are
cancers more than half are so early
that the glands are not involved and
their chances of a cure are more than
40 per cent instead of less than 20
per cent as in 1900.
OF the remaining so patients there
was n definite lump in the breast, but
the majority Of cases these women be-
cause they had read or heard Of the
danger Of waiting had not delayed. In
more than one-half of these SO cases
the lump was cancer, and of those re-
naming in which the lump was cancer

Contrasting this with our experience

Sometimes his crops have

his sheep in the winter. Some
times hail ruined his crop. Then
he cut what was left and fed it
to his sheep and cattle in the
winter. Sometimes he had no
crop. Then he went out and cut
Russian thistles, which are al
ways a big crop, and he fed
these to his sheep. A crop fail

survive and his garden grows

No Magic in Methods
Tom McFarlane has farmed
for the dry years, and the good
years have bo~untifully taken
care of themselves. He has
farmed where others have fail
ed and there is no magic about
his methods, no particular adj
vantage which his place pos
sesses that has been response
BILE for his success. His farm
has been in the path of
droughts, hail, and pests as
have been those of his neigh
bors. During years of excess
moisture and favorable farm
ing conditions his neighbors
profited with him, but a
drought of two or three years
drove most of them out of their
farms. But if this year is no
better than last year and next
year the same and the next
year and the next, Tom McFar-
lane will continue to add to his
bank savings, will continue to

believing that more publicity of the
facts concerning cancer is the best
possible way to combat the dread dis
ease, the following message on the
subject is given through The Tribune
by DR.. Joseph Colt Bloodgood of Bal
timore. DIR. Bloodgood comes to Great
Falls for the state medical associa-
ton meeting here July 1913 and will
address the association on The Cancer

tation Of having done more successful
work in connection with the treatment
of malignant cancer than any other

for summer use. There are po-
tatoes, turnips, carrots and
other roots to 60 into the Gel
lar for winter. There are to-
matoes, %currants, gooseberries
and rhubarb to find their way
to cans for the table during the
time that the garden is cover
ed from snow drifted in from
the nearby grove.
Tom McFarlane has no pat
ented recipe for success. He
has no secret talisman nor
weaves any secret spell. Like
Columbus, who astounded the
wise men by causing an egg to
stand on end by the simple ex-
pedient of crushing the shell,
his methods are so simple that
one wonders why they haven't
been practiced before.
Montana has hundreds-yes,
thousands-of men and women
who have courage, the brains
and the energy, and Tom Nc
Farlane's system for success
does not look too difficult.

1T would have been far bet

was for the great majority. If

had wintered them on Russian

successful also. Cows winter

would have solved the problem
for most of the farmers"
Viewed through the eyes of
Tom McFarlane and others of
his type, who have sought and
success where others en-
countered only failure, the
great rolling areas of northern
are facing a tremen-
future when the entire
countryside will be dotted with
pleasant homes and happy fam
lies. But the future of this
district rests largely upon Tom
McF'arlane and his kindred,
and an accurate history of ag-
riculture in this state will bear
he names of these pioneer men
and women who are making
great.

The sheep have proved active
enemies against the thistles
but do not like them as a steady
diet. They will clean them from
the fields if forced to it, how
ever, he says.
A flock of chickens, a few
pigs and some cows not only
keep the table supplied with
meat, milk, butter and eggs but
bring in very respectable
checks from the sale of the sur

treatment and the best of at

Eight horses provide the
power for the farm, although
there is a car in the barn which
affords a convenient means of
travel. BY his system of farm
ing his teams are kept busy
from spring until fall and prac-
tically all of the work is done
by him alone, with a little as
sistance during the rush sea-
sons.
A Home. Not Riches
Tom McFarlane did not come
to Montana to get rich. He
came to make it his home. He
married in 1914 and Nh. and
Mrs. McFarlane consider their
bright children as their
most priced possessions. They
have a real home, too. 1t is
not spacious nor magnificent,
but it has all the earmarks of
that place, which, "be it ever
so humble" is still the best
place on earth.
In front of their house is a
flourishing grove which is kept
so by constant cultivation and
care. Near the grove is a gar
len which is a prolific spot.
There are radishes, lettuce, on

from this income, as all bust

labor income of 81, 1863. This is
his pay for his own personal
labor for a year. This was his
pay when the labor pay of his
observation-disclosures from the
Atlantic coast to the Pacific

mark or far below it.

Farlane might be accused of
being a super man. Measured
in terms of enduring courage
and confidence, he might be
called a hero. But he denies
that he is anything other than
just plain Tom McFarlane, who
tries to live honestly and treat
his neighbors fairly and, who,
by the grace of God and con-
slant industry, has been able to
maintain a comfortable home
where he and his family can
live happily and independently,
free from debt and financial
worry.
But Tom McFarlane has done
more than that. Equipped with
a sterling set of Scotch brains,
the stout heart and ready sin
ews of his Highland ancestors,
with his brave wife as a loyal
ally, he has triumphed over
heartbreaking years of drought
that have crushed the courage
and spirits of hundreds of his
fellows. In the face of raw ad-
versity he has established his
castle and from the attacks Of
merciless circumstances he has
defended it.
Like it's owner, his castle is
modest and unpretentious, but
over it hovers the magic spell
of Monochrome for himself, his
wife and the two bright eyed
little brains that help to make
it such.
From Alberta he came and
filed on a homestead in what is
now Liberty county, two miles
southwest of Lothian, Montana,
in 1910.
Like others who came to that
section of the state at that
time, he was a real pioneer in
agriculture in northern Mon
tana. Like prospectors in a gold
rush these agricultural pio-
neers came, digging and delv-
ing in the virgin prairie to dis
cover its hidden secrets.
Disappointment, discourage
ment and heartaches was the
lot Of many, who came, delved
and went away. But Tom Nc {

homestead. !
A Small Band of Sheep {
Next to his innate good judg- I
ment, perhaps, Mr.. McFarlane i
owes the greatest measure Of
his success to a small band of {
sheep-an insignificant num- t
Der compared to those of old t
time sheep men. But it is a +
farm flock which spelled sue
