blood Of adults who in childhood had had the
disease and who, medically speaking, are still
convalescentS, even though the convaleScence
Is of 20 or 30 years standing.
The blood Of the child just recovering Is
much more potent in anti-bodies and IS likely
to forestan an attack of the measles, but the
immunity lasts but short time, as little IS
q month, frequently. In the case Of the adult
serum o child exposed to the disease Is very
likely to contract it any way, but in very
mild form which is free of the pneumonia
complications.
One of the advantages of the adult serum
lies in the fact that the child by suffering
mild attack builds up its own anti-bodies. thus
bringing about permanent immunity and
provides a source in later life Of serum for
future children.
The question of convenience also enters into
the adult treatment. In the case Of the inn
mediate convalescent serum, it has been found
through tests that blood drawn from child
Is days after the fever has ended is best, but
it is not always easy to find this ideal situation
when the serum might be wanted. With the
adult serum, however, 1t is very unlikely, If not
actually nonresident, that neither of the
parents of child has had the disease. If
either has had it, a few drops of the blood
drawn from the vein of either arm, just above
the elbow, will serve, and if both parents have
had measles either will serve. Therein lies the
advantage which the very contagious nature
of measles has given in the fight against the
disease.
This new treatment, while not widespread as
yet, is gradually taking its place in regular
practice, and at least two physicians in this
city are using it. 1t gives promise of placing
measles along with diphtheria, diabetes, typhoid
fever, smallpox malaria and other common
diseases which have fallen before mans grow
ing knowledge of human ailments and their
treatment.

MEASLES, the disease so lightly regarded
by most people and so seriously consid-
cred by physicians, has ct last met its match
treatment of recent origin which IS COM
ing into general practice makes of the disease
only O slight indisposition, or perhaps elimi-
Mates it entirely. %"'
The seriousness of measles lies in its pre-
disposition to bronchial pneumonia, which in
the past has been one Of the two most potent
sources of death among children. So wide
spread has been the contagion of measles 1t Is
believed that comparatively few grow to ma
turity without having had the disease.
Medical science has long known that when
measles has broken out there is set up within
the blood of the victim foe Of the disease
germ known as the anti-body. With the prog
ress of the disease the number of anti-bodies
has increased and they soon overcome the
germs of the disease while convalescence sets
in. It Is during this battle between the anti
bodies and the germs that the introduction OF
the complication of a cold brings on the bron-
chial pneumonia, with frequent fatal results.
Two doctors working simultaneously but in
different parts of the world hit upon the idea
of aiding the fight on the disease by intro
ducing anti-bodies into the veins OF the VIC
tins of measles in order to give sort of
running start in the fight against the germs.
The two DR. Ncolle at the PaSteur Institute
in Algiers, and DR.. Degkwitz in Munich began
their experiments by drawing small quantities
of blood from convalescent patients soon after
the fever had subsidized and injected 1t into
the veins of new victims. Their experiments
won immediate success and they continued
their work until they hit upon what they be-
lieved to be the ideal circumstances under
which to administer the serum.
With the publication of their findings other
doctors took up the study to see what improve
ment might be made in the treatment OF the
disease. Among these were Dr. william H.
Park of the Department of Health in New
York City With the assistance of DR.. Abra-
ham Zingher he administered the serum to
Al children. To 20 were given 8 cubic cent?
meters Of blood each and none Of them, al
though they had been exposed to the disease,
developed it. The remainder received cubic
centimeters and 3 of them developed mild
attacks.
At the hygienic laboratory of the United
States Public Health Service in this city it
was said that there are two sources Of serum,
one being the blood of convalescBnts just re-
covering from the disease and the other the

FARMERS WIFE SHOCKS
ALFALFA AND REPORTER
Days Routine on Farm Occa-
siOns Surprise In New York

81 shocked alfalfa all morning be-
fore I took the train to New York, "
declared Mrs. Ensor, of Baltimore
county, when a reporter from a big
New York daily interviewed her and
a number of other women from Mary
land farms, who were on trip to the
metropolis recently so that they might
see how farm products are marketed
and distributed.
"You WHAT" asked the reporter.
Shocked alfalfa. Don't you know
what alfalfa is? IT'S a kind of hay
that we grow on Maryland FARMS"
"And what did you say you did with
it?"
eve shocked it. I don't mean say
ing things that might make alfalfa
blush; 1 mean piling it up in orderly
heaps so that it can be hauled into
the barns"
"Oh, I see."
eve are having such a good time"
added Mrs. Spoerlein, another Mary
land farm woman. "This will give
me something to think about while 1
am milking cows"
ooh, do you know how to milk
cows ?" asked the reporter. "And how
many do you milk? Two or three?"
Mrs. Speorlein gave the reporter a
look of genuine surprise and pity.
eve keep dairy farm" she said,
"and I milk as many as necessary for
me to milk. 1t may be three or four,
perhaps fifteen. And that isn't all I
can do. I taught school before be-
came a farmers wife,"
The reporter looked surprised.
ooh, you needn't think that just
because we came from the farms
we're backwoodsmen," declared Mrs.
Spoerlein. You'd be surprised, per-
haps, to know that our homes are
equipped with modern heating and
lighting plants; that most of US have
electric refrigerators and automo-
biles, electric irons and vacuum clean
ers and washing Notwithstanding
that you city people have"
