Unfair to Sufferers

A ROUSING false hopes in the minds of cancer
~ victims by publishing premature reports of al
legged cures is nothing less than criminal
cording to recent statement by leading medical
journal.
The statement was issued because of misleading
reports of experiments of Drs Cofey and Humber of
San Francisco, which have been given wide publication
in the daily press. AS result many sufferers
have ourneyed to California at great expense, only to
find that their hopes in vain.
Some interesting developments have been made
by the doctors named, but they themselves have re-
peatedy stated that actual has been found
By of certain injections they have caused
changes in cell structure to take place. but this
has been done before without much practical benefit
to the patient.
With of earnest scientists continually work
ing the problem, it is reasonable to believes that
in time cancer may be conquered, but to the pre-
sent about the only hope of the patient is to have the
growth removed by the knife while in its early stages
bit of friendly advice to our readers is passed
from the pen of Fay Cravens, who edits the Mile
Laos County Times:
"The carelessness of editors in permitting mis-
takes to in their papers is illustrated by the
| fact that in ordinary newspaper there only
1000 pieces of type; there only wrong posi-
tions that single letter may be put in; there are
only 10000 chances to make error, and few mil
lion chances to making transposition. In the short
sentence TO be to be-, there only 2,759022
chances of making an by transposton alone.
So when you see an error in your paper be sure to
point the mistake to the editor he will be
| careful next time"
What nation for we are, anyway. A
few years ago folks bugs about the Ku Kux

by recent statements of the Federal Farm Board
which virtually declare that unless the farmers form
strong cooperative marketing associations and at the
time resolutely decide to limit production of

before the so-caed farm relief law was enacted AS

No legislation devised by the mind of man

the Farm Board has frankly stated this fact It is
impossible to legislate against economic folly.
About all the new law do is to bring it home
to the farmer that he must adopt the same methods
that have been found effective in promoting the well
