THE CURE OF RUPTURE

Rupture, breach or hernia as physi-
clans call it, is protrusion or bulg-
ing of some internal structure through
the walls of the cavity or space where
the structure belongs. We need not
discuss the causes of hernia nor the
different types of hernia here. That
is rather a technical aspect which
concerns the physician. not the pa
tent. The question which interests
the patient is the cure.
Ten years ago / made short work
of this question. ] assured the hernia
or rupture victim quite positively that
the radical operation was the only
cure for hernia, and ] urged every
sufferer not over middle age to un-
dergo the operation as a matter OF
good sense, comfort, safety and eco
norny. believe I was right about It
then. But the times change, and no
longer give such advice. It had 9
hernia myself I certainly should not
submit to the radical operation, at
least not until had given the am
bulant treatment a fair trial.
BY ambulant treatment ! mean
series of injections Of medicine which
in fair share of cases brings about
a cure. Never mind the technical de-
tails-leave that to the physician who
gives the treatment. All the layman
needs to know is what ! am telling
him here-and I challenge any one
to stop me II am wrong. ! believe
the ambulant treatment Of hernia IS
much safer for the patient than the
radical operation is. It does not In
terfere with the patients ordinary &C
tivities or his Job. It fails to cure
in approximately the same proportion
Of cases as does the radical opera
ton. If it fails. well, you are not out
much. No reason why you can't have
second attempt at cure by the same
method. Nor is there any reason why
| the radical operation may not bt
done later, If you decide to try thai
method.
So far, regret to report, not man,
physicians about the country have hae
the courage to learn the technic O.
this modern method and to adopt 1t II
practice. Too many OF the ploddini
practitioners appear to be inttmidatet
by the raucus condemnation Of tn
new method by our brass (throated
surgeons, the ever ready operator
who infest American medicine ant
who understand SO well how to &c
the free publicity on which thei
shoddy eminence rests.
For instance, one Of these bombas
tic surgeons employed in the mos
|egregious "clinic" OF them all, had tn
cheek to expostulate with me whel
began recommending the ambulan
treatment Of hernia to the public, an
the basis Of the sophomore surgeon
OBJ lection was wholly theoretical. II
had q SNUG little notion-shared b
many Of his Fellows-that the injec
ltion Of this and that foreign substanc
into the tissues was harmful. Thu
may be 80, but It has nothing to d
with the ambulant treatment Of heI
mia. AS have said many times, tn
trouble with American surgery Is ths
it is practiced by too many half-bake
specialists who get certain degree
skill in operating and launch Int
, practice without any background
general experience worth mentiontnl
That is why so much unnecessary an
harmful operating Is done.

The Other Side

which has come from the rural Sec
lions In recent weeks has had to do
with the question Of prices.
That this is only half the picture,
and perhaps the smallest half at that.
is disclosed by examination Of the
figures upon which Burleigh county
farmers base their applications for
wheat allotments published Thursday
by this newspaper. These have been
carefully checked by district and
county committees and are as near
accurate as it is possible to get them.
A few changes may be made but the
list, as it was published for Bur-
leigh county. Is very near to being
correct now.
What does 1t show?
First OF all that a good deal Of the
responsibility for decreased farm in
come, at least in this area, lies IN
lack OF production. This year. for
example, 1t doesn't make . great deal
Of difference to some Burleigh coun-
ty farmers whether wheat sells for
50 cents q bushel or S. = bushel. They
had little or none to sell.
Some fine averages are reported. to
be sure, but they are the exception
rather than the rule, as witness the
comparatively low base fixed for
making the allotments.
The figures show. too, that many
farmers have literally been driven
away from wheat farming and into
other lines Of agriculture because Of
poor yields.
This, OF course, has been due to
the drouth rather than to any ma
tural infertility OF our soil. Crops
cannot grow without rain and nature
has been very stingy with that n
recent years.
Consider, for example. the cases o.
two Burleigh county farmers. taker
at random from the list.
In 1880 Farmer A planted IS acre.
and got 400 bushels. In 1891 1t wa.
So acres and crop failure, and II
1882 It was 80 acres and at bushels
His average is 433 acres and 225.'
bushels, or roughly SO bushels pei
acre.
Farmer B planted IS acres In 1885,
and got 1913 bushels. In 1891 h
planted 80 acres and got 222 bushel'
and in 1882 it was IS acres and So
bushels, an average for the thre'
years OF 10 acres and SITS bushels
or az bushels per acre.
Farmer b, by the way. made
showing slightly above the average.
Deduct the cost Of seed, blowing
seeding and harvesting costs, plus tn
cost Of getting the grain to market
and it is clear that only very higl
prices would enable either Of thes
men to break even.
Any remedy which may be applie'
by man is not Immediately apparent
No human being could either forese
or forestall the soaring winds an
high temperatures which blighte
our crop after a good start las
spring. All the rainmakers hav
proved to be fakes.
Il is true that this condition ap
plies only to part Of North Dakot'
but the fact Is that the showing
some counties is worse just as tn
showing Of some counties viii b
better. On the whole. we are prett
close to average.
No intelligent man win conten
that farm prices are high enough
1t is easy to prove the contrary. B,
examination Of these figures pro,
that prices tell only . part Of tt
story In 50 far Is . large portion
North Dakota Is concerned.

STOCKS GO HIGHER
/. IN VIGOROUS RALLY
Market Hardens in Final
Dealings, With New High
Prices Scored.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 10.-Stocks
pushed ahead robustly in the last hour
of today's session on the exchange. reg
istering new highs on the recovery.
The market had been dull and irregu-
lar during the morning. but 1t hardened
after the untitled tonnage statement Of
the United States Steel Corporation
came out at noon, and in the late deal
fngs turned aggreSSively strong.
Allied Chemical and Continental Can
were among the stocks setting new peak
prices since January /, 1892. A long
list OF others made new tops for the
movement. Special strength was shown
by Steel preferred, up 4 points; J. /.
Case, American Can and Monsanto
Chemical.
The market was a waiting affair
throughout the morning. Fractional re-
cessionS from the previous close were
the rule, but no additional stock came
out on the reaction and here and there
an issue managed to make progress.
One Of these was Iiggett g. Myers B,
which was outstandingly strong in ex-
pectation of favorable dividend action
at the meeting at the end of the month.
Last year the company declared an ex-
ira of 81 share at this time. It
has been suggested that similar extra
will be paid this year or, perhaps. the
stock put on a SIS annual rate regularly.
Nash motors was up fractionally on
its good showing In the balance sheet,
given out with the dividend action yes
terday. Additional short covering was
in evidence in Allied Chemical, while in
the railway list Lackawanna and Penn
sylvania were in good demand. At the
same time the turnover in all of these
was moderate and there were many de-
clineS. Realizing came into Corn Prod
ucts after yesterdays achievement of
making a new high for the past IL
months. American Telephone was
heavy, as were U. S. Steel common and
preferred before the untitled tonnage
statement came out.
There was no change in the attitude
of the Street toward the market, which
continued hopeful. It was pointed out
that there was no pressure from liqui-
dalton or from short selling. Strength
in the bond market was taken as a
favorable indication for stocks. From
time to time this investment demand
broadened out to take in preferred
stocks. Norfolk g. Western preferred.
Proctor & Gamble preferred and Du-
quesne Light preferred all sold around
their best prices today. There was I'M
usual activity in General Baking pre-
ferred at unchanged prices.

LIBERTY LOAN DRIVES
MAY BE TRIED AGAIN
Proposals to Fund Part of Public
Debt Would Necessitate New
Bond Issues.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 10.-The Lib
erty loan drives of the World War
period. comprising the most intensive
money-raising campaign every under
taken in this country. may be revived
in modified form, and for different
purpose. If proposals in some financial
and political quarters are adopted.
These proposals, which contemplate
the launching of a Government loan
program to fund good part of the So
00o. o0o,0 900 of the Federal Governments
floating Indebtedness, are receiving
serious study in prominent banking
quarters, some authorities holding that
it might go far toward nberating credit
to its normal channels.
Almost one-third of the total Gov
eminent debt of $4,000, 900 900 is in
securities which mature within the next
two years, and until this huge volume
OF short-term Indebtedness is placed on
a more permanent basis, bankers say
it is extremely difficult to forecast prob
able developments in the money market,
and it is consequently extremely diff
cult to invest their depositors' money
This very uncertainty has facilitated
further additions to the Governments
short debt, for banks have been
glad to pour funds into Government
issues maturing within a few months,
at almost no interest, knowing that
whatever the money market may do,
they will get their principal out intact
when the Government issues mature.
A pinch in the money market, sending
rates up. would naturally send long
term bonds down.
The fact that the market for highest
grade long-term bonds has been very
strong OF late has led bankers to Won
der if good time were not approaching
for the Government funding.

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
1.-THE volume of freight carried by
American railroads in 1892 dropped
nearly one-quarter below the total
hauled in 1881, year which already
had shown great losses from previous
high marks.
The American Railway Association,
reporting finally for the entire year,

the corresponding week in 1881 and
208, 081 under 1880
The annual report showed a reduction

cent-and less than carload freight, the
lowest with III per cent.
