DOCTORS WARN OF
INCREASE OF CANCER

Ninety thousand persons died in
1920 in the United States of cancer
More last year. Over 10000 will de-
velop cancer this year, therefore will
pass through the early durable stage,
Who will be the victim? 1t NAV be |.
1t may be you or some of your loved
ones, your friend or your neighbor.
Take heed and note the following:
Cancer often starts from something
else-usually something quite incon-
sequential and easily cured.
Be suspicious of:
Any sore in the mouth, on tongue
or lip, that does not heal readily.
Any wart, mole, ulcer, bruise or
sore upon the body that either chang
es in appearance or does not heal.
Any irritation, particularly in the
mouth, which is constant, for n of
the certain things about cancer that
Is known, is that in a great majority
OF cases irritation is a contributing
cause.
Any lump which does not disappear
shortly, particularly in the breast.
Any abnormal discharges from one
OF the orifices of the body, particularly
If it is tinged with blood, or an ir-
regular or p~rofuse bleeding.
Continued Indigestion. Cancer of
the stomach is difficult to detect. A
cancer may be indicated by continued
pain or even slight discomfort in the
upper abdomen, especially if aggra-
waited by taking of food, often thought
of as merely indigestion" 1t may
cause increasing constipation, or a
sudden aversion to meat. Or it may
first cause only rapid loss of weight.
These may be and often are, symp-
toms of something other than cancer,
but they are danger signals and you
had best find out what they are, es-
pecially if you are over 35.
Cancer in a great majority of cases
causes no pain when it first appears.
Great loss of weight, changes in COM
plextion, and severe pain are usually
later symptoms, often after it has
reached the incurable stage. Act be-
fore these appear.
Many cancers develop at the edge
of an old scar. Moles and warts that
have not grown or changed for years
often suddenly develop cancer.
See that a tooth, a bridge or poorly
placed filling does not cause an irrita-
ton in your mouth, on tongue or
check. Beware of Smokers sores"
Many n mar has lost his life because
he burned his tongue with his pipe
or cigar and paid insufficient atten-
ton to it.

THE PASSING WEST"

There's a ghost that rides in the
silent hours
Down from the Milky Way
On a rangy steed of a by-gone breed
To look on the West of today.
The eyes of him meath his Stetson's
brim
Are sad with grief unguessed
As he reads the sign in the hail of
time,
This ghost of the old-time West.
He has watched the face of a passing
race,
From the Milk to the Rio Grande-
From the outlands bleak to the noun
tain peak
From the snow to the desert sand.
He beckoned the strong with a SIRENS
song,
Paid them with hunger and thirst;
Now he's waiting the hour that marks
the close
Of the Old Vests day on EARTH.
When the last loose strays of the
olden days
Are gathered n headed Tor nome,
And he's hailing close to the phan-
TOMS hosts,
Up to the starlit dome.
And you see him pause on a fleecy
cloud
And turn to the coming dawn
With an arm upheld in the long fare
well,
Then will the West be gone.

UP LACK OF FALL FLOWING
IF WEATHER and SOIL PERMITS

Less than a normal acreage has been fall plowed this
season. Farmers have been busy with the beet harvest
later than in previous years or the soil has been too wet.
If weather and soil conditions permit OF fall blowing an
effort should be made to surmount the backwardness in this
preliminary stage of preparing fields for next seasons acre
age.
The sunny days OF the past fortnight in this district, if
they continue, should make possible considerable fall-plow-
ing. Even where heavy night frosts take place the
sun generally thaws the frozen crust sufficiently for plow-
ing.
The prevailing practice among successful farmers in
your district with regard to the question Of fall blowing
different types of soil is a good guide. In general, the heavy
types are safely plowed now but the lighter soils, given to
blowing, are better left for spring blowing.
Even at this late date it would be advisable to follow
the pillow with some other tool. If the soil is reasonably well
broken up by the plow, use a harrow. II cloddy, use a disk,
set straight.
The benefits of fall blowing are often lost because the
plow is not followed by the harrow, disk or roller as condi-
ton may require. In case of a dry winter the clods will not
be broken up by the frost.
After the heavy duties of the beet harvest fall blowing
may not appeal but the successful beet growers, on adobe
type Of soils, have not waited this word, and in the last week
or two many have started fall blowing.

Augusta Golfers
Qualify in State
Title Play, Portland

Play in the annual Maine State
Amateur Championship began yes
terday morning at the Country
Club with some 60 players from a
dozen different clubs competing for
the title of State champion. There
was no sensational scoring. A. S.
Hitchborne of Augusta coming in
with the low score for the day, an
81, and winning the bronze medal.
Five players from the Portland
Country Club made the champion
ship flight, and four of them re-
manned in after the first round of
match play. the only one to fall by
the wayside being C. S. Erswell,
who succumbed to the art of Har-
Ian Turner, a former State cham
pion.
The present champion. DIR. Wins
low. came through we'll and may
yet retain his title, though the
chances are against him. He has
to batter down Howard Frederick.
who is as steady as a church. and
then meet the winner of the
Rounds-Snow battle in order to be
finalist. That will bring him up
against, presumably. the winner of
the Turner-Ricker match-pretty
tough going for anybody.
The great upset of the qualifying
round was the failure of DIR. Tyson
of Augusta to qualify-he failed by
a stroke of coming into the select
class. and this failure was due to an
unacountably lost ball on the sixth
fairway and to two balls hoped out
of bounds on the 10Th. Otherwise
his game was good. though not up
to his best, but these six strokes
were a bad handicap and the doc
tor couldn't quite make the grade.
He has a grand chance to land the
prize for heading the second six
teen group, however. and can still
have something to shoot at.
Big Bill Campbell, too. was MISS
ing from the ranks of the top-notch-
ers, largely because he insisted on
using his putter too often. He may
yet battle with DR.. Tyson for the
second fight crown.
The tournament was ably started
and scored by Frank A. Gilman. the
Augusta pro, and State Handicapped
Match play goes on today, both
morning and afternoon, and the finals
for the championship take place Fri
day over the SO hole route.
