CANCER NEXT

LeDrosy is on its last legs; tu-
berculosis is about to surrender.
Typhoid is under control; chill
dren's diseases now may be ban
ished by one kind of serum or an
other. And now comes cancer un-
der the ban of science; not cure
yet; but probably cancer serum.
Two British scientists have sue
ceeded in isolating for the first
time in the world the cancer or
ganism and have established the
existence Of a living cancer virus
They have gone so far as to sue
cessfully inoculate chickens and
mice and. make them immune to
the disease. 1t is expected that a
vaccine against cancer for human
beings will be found. This does
not mean that a cure has been
established but that the greatest
step yet made for conquering the
dread disease has been taken.
Bryan said, Science is a series
of guesses." AS matter of fact
modern civilization depends on
two things: The philosophy Of
Jesus of Nazareth and the discov
cries of science, remarks the edi-
tor of the Emporium Gazette.

NUMBER OF FARMS IN u. S.
SHOWS DECREASE

There were 10000 fewer farms
in the United States last year than
in 1928 and there was a reduction
of cultivated land in the sum of
100000 acres. About a million
acres Of this decreased cultivated
land was used for pasture. Look"
ing at the decrease in per centage,
however, the decrease was small,
being less than one half of one per
cent of the total number of farms
in the country and less. than one
third of one per cent of the to-
tai number of acres under cultiva-
ton.
The decrease of cultivated acres
in 1924 is said to have been due
to the unsatisfactory agricultural
conditions in 1929.
The decrease in number Of
farms is quite general in central
and southern Georgia and south
eastern Alabama where it ranges
from one to ten per cent; in much
of Michigan and Missouri, where
it averages about two per cent; in
most of Colorado; in southeastern
Idaho and eastern Washington,
where it ranges IN general from
one to FIVE per cent. Undoubtedly
some of this decrease is account
ed for it is stated, by consolidat-
ion Of farms into larger economic
units.
The decrease in crop acreage
was greatest in western Georgia
and southeastern Alabama, south
ern Mississippi, western Maryland,
Pennsylvar ia and southern New
York, Michigan and southern M
inois, western Kentucky, and much
Of Missouri. The decreases in Ill
inois and Missouri were largely
due to abandonment of corn.
