Ten thousand men are engaged
in fighting more than 200 fires
raging in the forests of Washing
ton. Idaho and Montana. A few
of these fires were set by lightn-
ing. some by fire bugs, but many
are the result of carelessness,
campfires not entirely quenched,
cigarette butts lightly tossed a.
side. The needless loss in devast-
ed forests, ranch buildings de-
stroyed and cattle burned to
death, is appalling. The flames
are spreading to British Colum-
bia, and two towns in Idaho are
menaced. Governor Erickson and
Governor Ross of Idaho have is
sued a joint plea to people to use
every precaution to prevent addi-
tional fires, not to built outdoor
and not to clear land by fire.

out between President Hoover and

Call for Blood Explained
By Medical Experts
COnvalescent Serum Regarded As
Most Hopeful Polio Treatment
by Experts

st. Paul, Sept. 14-What is the
meaning of the call for the blood
of convalescents in the presence OF
an epidemic of poliomelitis?
This question is being asked Sc
frequently since the call for
blood" issued recently by the
State Department of Health at ST.
Paul, that the Education Commit
tee of the Minnesota State Medical
Association devotes it's weekly bull
letin to the subject today.
1--WE have a specific treatment for
infantile paralysis" says the bulle-
tin. THAT is the convalescent Sc
rum or blood treatment by which a
quantity of the blood of persons,
who have recovered from the di-
sease, is injected intramuscularly
into the sick child to help it fight
the infection. In this blood are
active "anti-bodies" so called be-
cause they are part of the defen-
sive forces called into action to
fight the disease in the body. In
sufficient quantities these appear to
be able to check the progress of
the disease and prevent their inva-
sion of the central nervous system
with the destruction of nerve cells
and the consequent paralysis that
sometimes follows upon the acute
illness.
1.-THE treatment must of necessity
be used very early in the course of
i - 81 H.
progress and that necessitates re-
cognizing the disease in the pre-
paralytic stage when it's symptoms
are not unlike those of other COM
mon diseases of childhood"
The serum treatment of polio"
is one of the modern advances in
the medical fight against the di-
sease, but there are difficulties in
the way of it's universal use, the
bulletin further points out. One is
that a sufficient quantity of serum
for use in the face of a general
epidemic is sometimes difficult to
collect.
"The number of polio cases in
Minnesota at the present time has
not assumed alarming proportions
the physicians say. 1.-THE call for
blood by the State Health Officer
was wise measure of preparation
against the possibility of the sud-
den development of epidemic. The
serum can fortunately be collected
sometime in advance of the need
and can be kept almost indefinite
ly.
"The other difficulty in the way of
it's use lies in the necessity for an
early diagnosis of the trouble in
the preparalytic stage is possible.
In the presence of an epidemic of
poliomelitus the sick child should
be put to bed and the doctor called
Immediately no matter what his
symptoms" r&a
Medical science is working on
the perfection of a horse serum
that can replace the human serum
and be available in unlimited
amounts-the serum available APP
pears to be useful but at present
cannot be compared in its value
with that for cerebro. spinal men,

New Type of Gothic Roof Is
Stronger

Something new and better in
Gothic roofs for barns and other
buildings is now being introduced
into Minnesota. This new roof is
called "Lamella."'
Instead Of having rafters that
run straight up the slope, the La.
mella roof uses comparatively short
pieces of lumber. called lamella,
which criss-cross up and down the
roof. These are bolted together
where they intersect, thus forming
an arched network that has been
proven much stronger and more rig.
i'd than the ordinary Gothic ROOT
by, tests carried on in the agricul.
tural engineering laboratories al
University Farm, under the direc.
@tion Of H. B. White, farm buildings
specialist .s
In appearance, the Lamella root
presembles a lattice which, because
Of the criss-crossing Of the tim
bers, has diamond shaped openings
instead gof the rectangles common
in ordinary lattices. The first
Lamella type roof in Minnesota
was put on a barn in Olmsted
county in 1880. Persons desiring
further information about this roof
may write Mr.. White.
Recent inquiry, started by Mr..
White and published in various
Minnesota newspapers, to find out
when the first Gothic rooted barn in
Minnesota was built, indicates that
at least one of the first was built
in 1904 at Cook, st. Louis county,
for Herman Thompson. Another
early one was erected in Mcleod
county in 1905. The next ones, OF
which there is record, were built in
1915, one in Chisago county 3 miles
south of Lindstrom, another one
mile south of Winnebago and the
third at Ostrander.

that over 30 per cent Of all stu
dents who have attended the school
have returned to the professions of
farming and home making, indi-
eating that the purpose for which
the school was established is being
carried out.
The school term this year opens
on September 28th, and, as usual,
runs for a period of six months.

Census Shows Shifts In Minnesota's
Farms

With 185,476 farms in 1880, Min
nesota has nearly 4 per cent more
farms than in 1920, according to L.
F. Carey of the agricultural eco
nomics division, University Farm.
His statement is based on the lat
est U. s. report. This increase in
Minnesota farms since 1920 is in
contrast to a degree for the same
period Of 2.3 per cent in the United
States as a whole. Minnesota has
fewer farms now than in 1925, how
ever, there having been a decrease
of Is per cent from 1925 to 1880.
There were 178,47S farms in 1920,
1S8,231 in 1925 and 185,476 in 1880.
The greatest decrease occurred in
the northeast dairy section. The
decrease from 1925 to 1880 amount
ed to 1863 per cent. The next great
est decrease occurred in the north
western part of the state. In the
counties adjacent to the Red River
the number of farms decreased 2.7
per cent and in the area adjoining
these counties ON the east the de-
crease was 2 per cent. Small de-
creases occurred in the eastern part
of the state. In the east central
dairy area there was a decrease of
OF per cent and in the southeast
livestock and small grain area
which is increasing in dairying, the
decrease was Ia per cent In the
west central small grain area the
number of farms increased Al per
cent. in the southwest livestock and
small grain area 2.5 per cent, and
in the beef and hog area % per
cent.
The greatest decreases came in
the portions Of the state in which
farmers depended on some outside
income or to a considerable extent
on the sale of small grain.
Any tract of land from which the
gross income was $3.50 was classed
as a farm.

Thursday, September II, 1881

To manufacture an immunizing
agent such as toxoid or toxin an
ti-toxin for diptheria, the bulletin
concludes, it will be necessary to
be able to isolate the tiny germ
that causes the disease. So far no
one has been able to isolate this
germ which, like the germ causing
measles, is so small it passes thru
the finest known porcelain filters.
Its presence in the throat and brain
of the patient has been amply dem
onstrated, however, monkeys have
been repeatedly given the disease
by administration of this filtered
material. Persons having had "po-
lilo" or infantile spinal paralysis,
who are anxious to save others and
for that purpose to give thir blood
serum, should notify the executive
officer of the state department of
health, Old Capitol Building, st.
Paul, MINI.
