SHIP BETTER VEGETABLES
Tomatoes and Beans Are Bringing
Good Prices.

Hazlehurst.-The largest shipment
of vegetables in one day from here
has been 27 cars, mostly tomatoes.
The tomato prices scared to high
mark for the season. going to 81 per
four basket crates. This fruit Is not
nearly SO plentiful as last year, and
the markets are gulping every car
that can be loaded at the new fancy
price. Grading Of all tomatoes packed
by the growers Is SO very strict that
quality is much higher than ever seen
here, and this, say the shippers, is
causing the increased price, to large
extent. Several trucks were returned
home on account Of their loads of to-
matoes being too green or poorly
packed. The Hazlehurst Truckers
association has been sending all its
shipments out through the State Mar
keting Bureau at Jackson, C. w. Gar
ner, sales manager ,and the local as
sociation says the returns are much
better than for any previous season.
Private shippers are shipping most of
the vegetables, however, as great
many farmers refused to place their
products with the Hazlehust Truck
ers' association after it merged with
the State Marketing Bureau. These
were doubling Thomases and say they
want to see how the state bureau
does before they join in with its pro-
gramme Of selling from the offices in
Jackson. Thus far the state bureau
has more than proven its efficiency.
Beans were selling freely for $3.50
per 27 quart hamper, and quantity
still large. This crop being late, has
made the present week the largest
shipping week thus far, and farmers
state their yields have been fairly
good. The bean movement will be-
gin to lag about the latter part Of
next week, when the tomato will be
about all that Is had to ship here.
Carrots have been paying 81 per
hampc- ,and beets have been the same
figure, but the movement on these
crops is slackening now. as the sea
son has been running over three
weeks already on these two crops.
No peas are ON the market, and
there has been no market here for
the past week, as that crop was far
short and the season very brief here
The tital shipments this season does
not compare so favorably with last
years shipments to the same date
but the aggregate will probably come
to the same figure last year, when the
full tomato crop has been harvested

X-RAYS ARE TRIED
IN CANCER CASE
SCIENTIFIC WORLD WATCHES
OUTCOME OF EXPERIMENT.
250,000 VOLTAGE is USED
Woman Shows Marked Improvement
After Undergoing 56.Hour Treat
ment-Previous Test Only 100
Minutes, 10000 Voltage.

New York.-Miss Anna Ellin of
Spring Valley. was removed to ward
in Bellevue Hospital this morning aft.
er having been exposed to X-rays of
100000 voltage for 56 hours In an ef-
fort to effect cancer cure
This was the first time that an e1.
pertinent had been conducted for such
long time and with such high volt
age. DR.. l. Seth Hirsch, director of
the Bellevue X-ray laboratory, said it
would be several weeks before he
could determine whether the expert.
ment had been successful.
Miss Ellin, who is 29 years old, ap-
peared in good spirits when the cur
rent was turned off. DR.. Hirsch said
she had become nauseated, which he
regarded as favorable indication
that the rays were attacking the dis
eased tissue.
The secret Of the woman's treat
ment became known for the first time
Friday morning Medical men are
watching the experiment with close
attention, particularly in view Of the
statement by DR.. William j. Mayo Of
Rochester. Mimi, before sailing for
Europe. that no cure for cancer yet
had been found.
The experiment on Miss Ellin Is the
second in which the X-rays have fig.
| ured within the last few hours. 1t
became known that the rays had been
I, od IN Wi O
| which was choking three-day-old
baby. The X-ray was employed after
artificial respiration failed.
So powerful are the rays that they
can penetrate a brick wall and out
| line the bones OF hand at 200 feet.
The machine was placed about six
feet from Miss Elln. Parts OF her
body not exposed were carefully pro-
tected with leather covering. Until
this morning when she became Ill, the
patient ate and slept normally.
The highest voltage previously used
In an experiment of this kind was
100000. A hundred minutes was the
longest period OF exposure.
DR.. Hirsch believes that cancer
cells can be exterminated with the
X-ray II the rays can be so concen-
trated as not to injure healthy cells.
In Miss Ellin's case the cancer was
attacking the abdomen.
DR.. James Ewing, cancer specialist
of Cornell University, and the Memo
rial Hospital, when told Of the ex-
pertinent, said that judging from his
own experience. he would predict that
any patient kept under such terrific
voltage for so long a period would
suffer the effects for the rest Of lie.
1.-THE X-ray of 250O0O volts for Sc
hours would certainly kill the can
cer,' he said, "but in my opinion 1t
would also greatly harm the healthy
cells"
Shortly after the experiment It was
announced that Miss Ellin was show
ing marked improvement and doctors
in the X-ray laboratory expressed the
belief that the experiment had beer
successful as far as could be expecte |
! at this time.
