BUREAU ASKING

FOR LOWER TAX GARDEN SEASON

Taylor Says Farmers Are Carrying Unjust Burden.

The legislative department of the Indiana Farm Bureau is augmenting its strength by recruiting local county units throughout the state preparatory to action when the General Assembly meets January 8 in Indianapolis. Lewis Taylor, director of the department, addressed a letter to county farm bureau legislative leaders this week saying: “The coming session will be one cf the most important from an economic and tax standpoint in its (onstitutional history of nearly ( ighty years. Our constitution, \ uder the judicial interpretation. ] ut upon its tax section heretofore lias brought property owners to the brink of bankruptcy and ruin. ! tate and local expenditures are in- < [’easing which further threatens i voperty ownership with confiscation. “Requests for appropriations are being handed to the state budget i ommitte,e with no suggestions as 1 ) how increased tax demands are ; > be met. State institutions are sed by all the people of the state : nd not only by property owners. I [any of the beneficiaries of these state institutions have large taxpaying ability which has never b^en touched, such as good salaries and incomes from interest, dividends, commissions and other such sourc-

es.

“If our decrepit constitution will not permit taxing of all who have tax-paying ability, it should be put under an anesthetic by the legislature and supreme court and a major operation performed, such as will save the state from the wrath of outraged property owners. Farmers and property owners generally are haunted with the problem of meeting the present tax demands of our state while the tax exempt seem to be clamoring for appropriations which, of course, under present tax procedure means greater property taxes. “Sherman once said, ‘The way to resume is to resume’. The way to get tax equaltiy is to enact tax equality laws. Such laws have never yet been enacted and probably never will be because of human selfishness and human greed but they can be approximated- This, with the help oi every citizen who has at heart the best interests of the state, is the task of the legislature. “The legislation proposed by the committee represents compromises made necessary by study and con•sideration of the tax obligations and responsibilities of all groups. It makes no claim to infallibility, knowing full well the intricate and vexacious problems that may arise to cloud the issues.”

WINTER IS BUSY

Cold Weather Should Not be Dormant Time for Owner.

FRESH AIR NEED

OF FARM FLOCKS Banking Bill Is

Winter is not necessarily a period of idleness for the gardener, says R. B. Hull, of the landscape extension service of Purdue univer-

sity.

Now that the leaves are gone, a thorough examination should be made of all the shrubbery and trees. Lilacs should be examined for oyster scale, as should the red stemmed dogwoods. Occasionally the y/ellow-stemraed dogwood is also found to be harboring this pest. Spray with an 8 per cent lubricating oil emulsion or any miscible oil spray. This may be done at any time during the dormant season when the temperature is above 40 degrees. The watchful gardener will examine these shrubs again around the first of next June when the young hatch. If any of the tiny yellowish or white specks appear among the bid scales a spray of Sunoco, Yolck, Dendrol, or a spray made of one pound of fish oil soap, one ounce of nicotine sulphate, and five gallons of water, all well “churned up”, should be used. Of course the spraying must be thorough in order to ipake contact with every insect oy scale. Qn single shrubs, it may be applied witl^ a. paint brush effectively. The time of hatching hi early! June is the most favorable for! spraying against oyster shell scale. Ash trees are becoming badly infested with this scale in Indiana and all these trees should be in spected during the dormant sea-l

sou.

Tulips and other bulbs should be well mulched as soon as the ground freezes to prevent the alternate freezing and thawing which pulls loose the newly formed roots. At the same^time the gardener will not forget that this mulch forms an excellent harbor for field mice, who enjoy a nice bulb by way of variety during the winter. The same mulch of half rotted leaves which is so good for the tulip bed will also be spread over the perennials in the careful gardeners borders'. For tlie month of November, how-, ever, the alert gardener will be engaged in intensive clean up activities as his chief project. There will be intensive raking and burning of all rose leaves, which may have black spot or mildew. All the hollyhock stalks and leaves- will be burned. All the phlox and •peony tops will go into the old oil drum incinerator. In short, everything that might harbor an insect pest or plant disease will be carefully raked and burned. But the tree leaves will go into the compost heap, for another gardening season is coming and there’s much planning and reading be done and other preparations be made during winter’s interruption.

Agriculture Problems To be Aired at Conference

Lafayette, Ind., Fruit and vegetable problems are going to have an airing in the horticultural program of the annual Agricultural Conference of Purdue University, to be held during the week of January 12-16. The meeting of the Indiana Horticultural Society will be held in conjunction with the Conference program this year. The Indiana State Vegetable Growers Association will hold their annual meeting then also. C. L. Burkholder has been characterized as “the arch enemy of all the codling moths in Indiana” and will have an important part on the program, talking on spray schedules for apples. Frank Farnsworth is a successful apple grower of Waterville, Ohio, and will tell some of his ways of promoting efficiency in his orchard operations. ' W. B. Ward, of Pui’due, is a vegetarian, by profession and practice and will discuss new vegetables for the home and commercial garden. Dr. F. C. Aachtex*, chief of horticultural investigations for

the U- S. Department of Agricultuve, is one of the best known authorities in the United States on

orchard problems.

Dr. John W. Lloyd, of the Univer

sity of Illinois, is known to vegetaibles gi’owers all over the United States. Getting rid if the surplus will be bis topic at the Purdue conference. J. G. Boyle is . president of the St. Joe Valley Shipping Association in southern Michigan, an organization which has been making history in the marketing of fruits and vegetables. He was a member of the Purdue horticultur-

al staff from 1910 to 1917.

Indiana will be the first state to carry the znessage of child health and protection to her people as outlined in President Hoover’s recent White House conference, when the state child health and welfare conference is held in Indianapolis, January 15, 16 and 17,

W. E. Lommell, of Purdue, spent according to an announcement to

- day by Dr. William F. King, secretary of the Indiana State Board of

Health.

The Indiana conference, accord ing to Dr. King, is the most comprehensive and extensive attempt ever made by any state to bring to. the public the summation of years of research and deliberation

last summer making a survey of potato marketing conditions, and will tell what he found, at the Conference. These are only a few of the speakers on the hoi’ticult-

New X-Ray Method Will Determine Sex of Child Before It Is Born

Dampness and Poor Feed Results in Heavy Losses

A stitch in time saves nine is an old adage. It is particularly applicable to the poultry keepei’. Poultry diseases are more prevalent in these days of large flocks under confinement than heretofore when only small flocks were kept that wandered at will over large acres. Diseases at this time of year have put more poultrymen out of the game than any other single tiling. It is up to every poultryman to keep ahead of disease by using every possible means at bis disposal. Such common diseases as fall colds, bronchitis, roup, canker and chicken pox can almost bg. avoided if proper precautions are taken at this season of the year. As it is, at housing time or shortly after that these diseases get their start and after they are started production slows up or stops altogether and the poultry keeper loses his profits for the year. Ventilation is of great help In. controlling or preventing these diseases. Where proper ventilation is maintained, drafts and wet floors are practically eliminated. Drafts and wet floors give any disease chance to get started and develop

rapidly.

Next to ventilation, constipatijn is of .vital importance. The medical profession acknowledges the fact that humans if constipated catch colds and other diseases quicker than if the bowels are in good con dition. The same reasoning should be applied to poultry. Plenty of green feed will keep the hen in condition which helps eliminate many of the diseases. Alfalfa cured in the sun, fed alone or when mixed with molasses, is probably one of the green feeds many poultrymen have neglected, but those that are using find that the birds are ‘getting more mineral matter and vitamines and the birds are in bettor condition to make more money for their owners.

Washington, Jan. 2.—(UP) Final decision on the legislation vo be sponsored during the coming General Assembly by the Indiana Bankers’ association was delayed one week by the members of the legislative committee in a meeting

here yesterday.

Among pi’oposed bills considered was one to curb receivership evils by providing for liquidation of defunct banks by the state banking

departments.

Another would establish a ratio between the capital stock of a bank and its total deposit liabilities. A third would limit the loan of an individual borrower to a percentage of the capital stock. o 1

RARE PINOCHLE HAND HELD

Cleveland, O., Jan. 2.— (UP).— Whether to trim the baby basket in pink or blue, always a vitai problem to young married cQupl.es, can now be determined as early as three months before the birth of the expected child thi’ough the use of a ne;w X-ray photographic method developed by Dr. Thomas O. Menees, of the Blodgett Memorial liospital, Grand Rapids, Mich., who will exhibit his photographs to the Americafl Association for the Advancement of Science which convened here yesterday. This new method of ascertaining sex of the unborn baby many weeks before’birth is expected to relieve the anxiety of prospective parents who under present circumstances are impatient to kxxow whether their off-spring is a boy pr

a girl.

No hope is held out that the new method developed by pr. Menees or any other method can be used to assure a child of the sex that is most desired by the parents. TJie sex of Hie child is determined at the very beginning of its prenatal life and seems to be dependent upon chance. Di\ Menees has made several successful diagnoses of the sex of unborn babies. Th.e method consists of injecting in the surroundings of the unborn baby a small amount of concentrated solution of strontium idipue.^ This 'VelatiyeTyliarmless chemical.

fleshy parts of the baby as well as its tiny bones can be identified on the X-ray photograph. The effect of the ihjeetion fades after

disappears in a day. Dr. Menees calls the method “amniography.” More important to the physicians and the mother is the fact that the method can be used to ascertain in doubtful cases whether a Caesarian operation will he necessary in order that the child may be safely born. It will probably be used much more frequently for this purpose than for ascertaining sex.

MAN DEVELOPS LIVING CELLS

New Development May Aid in Control of Cancer

By DAVID DIETZ

111. P .Science Correspondent Cleveland*, Jan. 2.—CUP)—Artificial cells; brought inf?) existence in the laboratory of Dr. Geox-ge W 7 Crile at the Cleveland clinic, may form a link between the lifeless and the living, it was revealed yesterday in an exclusive interview with Dr. Crile by the United Press. The cells procreated by division just as do many living unicellular animals such as the amoeba,- and have exhibited reactions to oxygen and to poisons similar to that of

living cells.

Further research may reveal that they are primitive cells resembling more nearly the cells of cancer and hence throwing important light upon the study of that

disease.

These facts were revealed yesterday when Dr. Crile for the first time discussed the work which has been going on in his laboratory and made known details of the experiment, news of which leaked put a few weeks ago and was published throughout the country as “the

artificial creation of life.”

For the present,” said Dr. Crile, “let us regard the cell as somewhere in the vague ground between the lifeless and the living.” Two of Dr. Crile’s assistants repeated the experim,efit f<m the writer, enabling him to see under the microscope the way in which th.e “autpsynthetic cells,” as Dr. Criie

calls them, are formed.

A glass slid.e with a little depression ground into its center w^s placed un(jer the microscope, in

from brain tissue.

When this is added, structures like any. cells of living crbfttures only simpleji,’: valid more regular in form, comd‘-into existence. Dr. jCrile calls .them “autpsynthetic” because they put' themselves together automatically as the various

ingredients are mixed. “I do not want to say at this time what the autosynthetic cells are,” Dr. Grile said. “Our experiments are not finished. If news had not leaked out prematurely, I would not have discussed this matter for months yet.” Dr. Crile revealed that 1 the experiments leading to the creation of these cells were undertaken as part of a research seeking light upon the subject of cancer, The human body, like alFother living organisms, consisting of a great collection of microscopic cells, each of which is highly com plex and each of which 'has many functions to perform. The cancer cell is barbaric and primitive. Its only function is growth at the expense of the other cells, eventually killing them off. “The autosynthetic cell resembles the cancer cell in ninny ways” Dr. Crile said. “It too, is a primitive cell whose only function is growth." 1 Dr. Crile expressed the belief that perhaps the formation of the autosynthetic cell could be explained upon the assumption that living tissue- contained many complex molecules. These molecules continued to exist in the proteins and lipoids extracted from animal brain tis-

sue.

“A salt solution is an electrolyte,” he continued. “Its molecules break up into electrified particle? known as ions. Hence there are electrical fields in the solution. “T.he complex molecules of the proteins and lipoids are able by the electrical energy of the salt solution to rearrange themselves into cell structures. But apparently these are primitive simple structures lacking the fine detail which long heredity gives to normal liy

ing cells.”

Dr. Crile indicated that the ^Cleveland clinic would continue its experiments upon the artificial cells. Associated with Dr. Crile in the work are Dr. Maria Telkes and Xmy F. Rowland, M. A.

LESLIE TO ASK FOR SAME BOOKS Claims Publishers Would Profit Instead of Children

Indianapolis, Jan. 2.—(UP) — Readoption of textbooks now used in Indiana schools will be demanded by Governor Hurry G. Leslie when the state text book commission meets January 5, the governor said yesterday. A saving of many thousands of dollars to parents will be made if the present books are readopted, Leslie said, and he promised to thwart any attempt of the co-called “book trust” to exploit Hoosier school children through text changes. “I am heartily disgusted with the conduct of certain text book publishers, who are paying more to promote than produce their texts,” Leslie added. “This book adoption has degenerated into a regular allotment proposition. “It is beneficial to the publisher to sell a book for 36 cents, which could be sold at a profit for 12 cents, but it isn’t very beneficial for the parents who pay the bills. “There is nothing to this- argument that text changes have progressed to make it worth while to change the texts we have used during the last five years.” The governor is ex-officio member of the board charged with adoption. • O T — ORIGIN OF HONEYMOON

Ames, la., (U.P.) — The word “honeymoon” developed among primitive people because it was customary for newly-married couples to stay at home fqr one month and feed honey to all who visited them, according to Prof. F. B. Paddock, apiarist at Iqwa State college. o LIGHTNING IS BLAMED

Altoona, Kas., (U.P.) — After a recent storm, the machinery of a grapn elevator was found running It is believed that lightning caused a contact that started the motor.

Indianapolis, Jan. 2.— (UP) — Senator Vanderburg, Repn., Mich-, announced after a call at the White House yesterday that he had given up his proposal foy cash payments of adjusted compensation to war yetreans and is now working on a compromise plan. Vanderburg, the original champion of cash payment, said it would be impossible to put it through because of administration opposition. He said, however, he had submitted a compromise arrangement which is being “sympathetically” considered. Uncley this compromise a veteran would be permitted to borrow from the government the actual value today of his insurance

Vanderburg estimated that this would increase tlie existing 18 or 22 per cent loan value to about

50 per cent.

Washington. Jan. 2.—(UP)—Insurgent Republicans extended their dispute today to the advisability of a special session pf Congress after March 4. But just around the congressional opruer is a potentially mpre dynamic issue than all that have gone before. It is prohibition, upon which the Wickersham commission now is .scheduled to report publicly January 6. the day after Conrgess reconvenes: ' That prospect fits snugly into plans fpr senators interested in an extra session but loathe to become filibustej’ers against appropriation bills. Tlie submission of so important a document as the Wickei’sharn report on so controverted an issue as prohibition must excite debate, find tiipe is becopilhg extremely valuable in the senate. None of the appropraition bills has been passed. ' i That is why majority leader Watson hopes “members will tprego speeches on extraneous mutters and confine themselves tp the immediate problems confronting us.” Watson believes no emergency justifying a special session will develop by March 4, if senators follow this advice. Senator Borah, Republican, lua ho, was annoyed by the suggestion of JVutsen and Senator Heed, Republican, Pennsylvania, Unit a special session would be pad P ; bp si

“This talk about Congress disturbing business or that a session of Congress would be an unmixed eyjl is an effort to assign a patriotic excuse fpr going to Europe in’ going home,” Borah said. “It is a strange thing that we have men fighting to get into Congress and tcllipg tlie people all the things they want to do, and then making every .excuse possible to go home and do things.' I suggest they turn their salaries pyer to the hungry until tljey get back.”

The tragedy in the case arises from the fact that precancerous keratoses and other untoward effects are usually not evident until months after the treatment has been given. There is a further unfortunate factor in the prpblem that the victim—nearly always women—frequently refuse to prosecute because of the in.evitabl,e

The American Dermatological association at its last annual meeting severely scored the usage of X-ray machines for tlie removal of superfluous hair and adppted resolutions ^recommending that the. dangers of this procedure be placed before the American public. Reports from Chambers of Commerce and Better Business Bureaus of thirty American cities disclosed that many so-called “beauty-specialists” and self-styled “Institutes” are exploiting these X-ray machines under fanciful trade urines which give no hint of their dangerous potentialities.
