Hadruras Hirsutus
Cashes In Checks

Imperial Valley heat has claim
ed it's first victim in the pet scor-
pion at the agricultural commits
sioner's office, Hadrurus Hirsutus,
to use her official name.
Her cracked ice having melted
away and none being forth coming,
the poor scorpion decided that life
wasn't worth living in such case
and died during the night.
However, her cage in the office is
not vacant but instead is filled with
a number of erasSnoppers of the
species which have been doing SO
much damage to crops in the valley.
j. B. Norton, plant pathologist,
is studying the habits of these in
sects with a view to learning the
best means of eradicating future
trouble for farmers. 1t is feared
that the grasshoppers will lay eggs
and cause a second generation to
arrive to cause damage next fall.
The grasshoppers did consider
able damage to young melons, pre-
ferring them to the leaves on the
vines. Those in the agricultural
commissioners office are fed ripe
melons daily, diet on which they
seem to thrive.

DOCTORS TELL
NEW METHODS
IN PRACTICE
BY JULIAN T. BENTLEY
United Press Staff Correspondent

MILWAUKEE,, June 16. - Final
sessions of the American Medical
associations 84th annual convention
were held here today, winding up a
five-day study of the battle against
disease by the nations leading ply
sicians.
In the concluding sectional meet
ings today, DR.. Luke Hunt, of the
John Mccormick Institute for In
fictitious Diseases, Chicago, described
new discoveries in treatment of
scarlet fever. The disease, DR.. Hunt
reported, is much less severe and
complications are less likely to de-
velop if scarlet fever anti-toxin is
given within the first two days after
illness appears.
A strange disease called myasthe-
mia gravis, which causes weakness
of muscles in extremities and mus
Giles of deglutition (swallowing) we're
described by one of its victims,
DR.. Harriet Edgeworth, of Tucson,
Ariz.
Dr.. Edgeworth, watching progress
of the disease in herself with elm
ical interest, said she apparently
had stopped its progress. AS treat
ment she said ephedrine, commonly
used in treatment of sinus, was en-
ployed. Glycerine or gelatine sugar
also is effective, she said.
An operation in which one-quarter
of young woman's brain was re-
moved, necessitated by a tumor, was
described by DR.. James Gardner of
Cleveland. This delicate operation,
DR.. Gardner said, has been per-
formed only few times.
Raps Tobacco Use
Although the right cerebral hemi-
sphere of the brain was cut away,
the patient did not lose her sight.
speech, intellect or locomotion, and
made satisfactory recovery, DR..
Gardner reported. She suffered
complete paralysis of the left arm
and partial paralysis of the left leg,
but 15 months later was able 20
walk unassisted, the physician said.
Prolonged use of tobacco or al
cohol will impair vision and make
close work of the eyes impossible,
DR.. Arthur Yudkin of Yale univer-
sity, told the physicians. Cod liver
oil and vitamin A concentrate are
effective as remedies, DR.. Yudkin
said.
A new method of relieving pain
was reported by DR.. Loyal Davis, of
Northwestern university medicine
school, simply clipping the nerves
that carry the pain sensation.
Pain from inner organs of the
body is felt by nerves that connect
with the gray matter inside the
spinal cord, DR.. Davis said. He tod
of an instance in which a patient
who had suffered for years from
angina pectoris was relieved perma-
nently by shipping the nerves from
the heart. He said he believed this
was the first operation of its kind
on record.

CREDITORS Of
GERMANY ACT
BY FREDERICK KUN
United Press Staff Correspondent

LONDON, June 16. = American
and other short term creditors of
Germany made large concessions
today in signing a new stand-still
agreement.
Faced with an exchange morator-
ium declared by the reiehsbank.
which becomes effective July l,
American, Dutch, Swiss, British,
French, and Scandinavian banks
agreed to renounce their right tc
repayment of capital in foreign
currencies on approximately 3d.
100000 marks approximately $22,-
792, 000 that will fall due before
the stand-still agreement expires
in February, 1884. They agreed al
so to accept a reduction in interest
rates from an average of Az per
cent to Al per cent.
The creditors have approximately
$500, 100000 marks approximately
81, 025 ,640,000) in short term invest
mentS frozen in Germany.
The creditors were given the OPP
ton of receiving these capital pay
ments in the form of registered
marks which are currency that can
only be reinvested in Germany
Acceptance of registered marks
would imply a waiver of foreign
currency, and it was expected that
many creditors would refrain from
drawing these capital repayments.
The sacrifices of the creditors
were expected to facilitate efforts
to induce Germany to remove the
Dawes and Young plan loans from
the. impending moratorium. 1t was
believed that Germany would con-
tinue to meet service on both these
loans even after the moratorium
becomes operative
Today's agreement involved ar-
220 creditors, about
1900 debtors, and about 1000 indi-
vidual items of Indebtedness.

NEW EVIDENCE
HITS LA|NSON

SAN JOSE, Calf, June Is. U.P)
Revelation of two new develop
ments supporting the states case
were made today as authorities re-
sumed the preliminary hearing of
David Lamson, charged with the
murder of his wife, Allene.
The most important bit of new
evidence was the disclosure that a
piece of pipe found in the ashes Of
a bonfire tended by Lamson was
not completely BACKED by the fire.
Half of the pipe escaped the blaze,
prosecution investigators said, and
showed traces of stains which DR..
Frederick Proescher, pathologist, es-
tablished as human blood of the
same type as that of Mrs. Lamson.
In addition, Sheriff William j.
Emig announced two new witnesses
had been found. One, woman,
would provide "corroborating evil
dence" for the states theory of the
murder motive, and the other, a
man, will testify he saw lights and
activity in the Lamson home at 3
a. M, the day of the murder, Enig
said.
While the state prepared to intro
ouce practically all available evil
dence, the defense literally sat back
and listened intent upon learning

ton may build.

DEVELOPING
NEW TYPE OF
WATERMELON

Prospects for a wilt resistant
watermelon seed to be used in the
valley are bright according to DR.. D.
R. Porter of the division of truck
crops, University Of California, who
visited Frank Beyschlag, farm adj
visor, yesterday.
DR.. Porter is an authority on wa
termelons and has inbred the Klon-
dixie strain to produce several diff
ferent varieties which he calls Cal
ifornia Klondike No. l, 2, 3, etc.
The strains were tested out here
and California Klondike No. 3 has
proven to be most satisfactory. Due
to the fact that it is inbred, the
strain is more uniform in size and
type. California Klondike No. 8 is
of interest to those who ship water
melons to the Canadian market
since it has thicker rind making
it more suitable for shipping long
distances. Actually Klondike No. /
is the finest melon but as it has a
thin rind it is difficult to ship and
is good only for local consumption.
Local growers face the problem
of wilt disease, a soil disease which
makes it almost impossible to grow
melons twice in soil infested with
wilt
While still in Iowa, DR.. Porter
developed a wilt resistant strain,
1.-THE Pride of Muscatine," which is
80 per cent resistant. However, it is
not as fine melon as the Klon-
dixie SO DR.. Porter has been cross
ing Klondikes with this melon to
obtain one with the quality of the
Klondike yet resistant to wilt. In
order for the seed to run pure, the
new strain will have to be inbred
and in the future will be available
for growers. BeySchlag feels that
this will prove valuable aid to
local growers who are threatened
seriously by the wilt situation.
DR.. Porter and Beyschlag also
visited the John Zenos ranch at
Meloland to inspect some carrot
varieties they have been growing.
Out of the 40 planted there appear
to be three or four varieties that
are better than the available COM
mercial ones, SO the tests will be
carried on another year.

Says Conapany's
Records MuddLed

LOS ANGELES, June 16. UP
A "holeo in the records of the

more difficult the work of tracing
asserted secret profits. Gilbert
Goshern, accountant, testified to-
day in federal court at the trial
of II defendants on charges of mail
fraud.
|, Goshern said he was partly
baked in his effort to trade as
serted profits of Alfred @. Wilkes
former general manager of the
concern, by the absence of certain
cancelled checks from the COM

The testimony developed under
Goshern IS cross examination. He

A broad plan to curtail wheat acre
age and boost prices paid to farm
ers was announced today by Sec
rotary of Agriculture Wallace.
The secretary announced that
the maximum processing tax pos
sible under the agricultural relief
act would be levied to pay bene-
fits to farmers and finance oper-
alton of the gigantic crop reduc-
ton plan.
The wheat program will cover a
period of three years extending
from 1888 through 1885.

for acreage reduction for 1884 and
1895 by not more than 20 per cent
of his average acreage during the
three year period.
