IThe field of red clay sail was di vided into four sections and ground limestone applied to three sections *? at the rate of 1,000 2,000 and 3,000 pounds per acre. The remaining sec tion was left unlimed as n check on the other plots. Then the whole field was sown to wheat using 200 pounds of 8-3-3 fertilizer to the acre. In the spring a mixture of rel and alaike clover wrfS sown upon the wheat- and 200 pounds per acre of 16 per cent acid phosphate \ ured all over the field and the lime 'showed that it was going to' be of great benefit to the crop. The clover matured and was cut for hay, each section being weighed separately, with the following results: No lime 492 pounds 1,000 lbs. lime 1,032 pounds 2,000 lbs, lime 1,844 pounds 3,000 lbs. lime 1,308 pounds This land - was of about average acidity and St much less than aver age fertility but the value of lime stands out as clearly as though the] ?oil had been very rich. From this demonstration and from oth'irs car ried on ever the - State, $. C.

It is increasing by leaps and bounds. If anything, it is increasing more rapidly in the United States than it is in the British Isles. Of those now living in the British Isles, 5,00 0.000 are doomed to die of cancer if they do uothing_ to prevent it. In the United States the doomed num ber is 10,000,000 and ijjight easily rise to 15,000,000 or 20,000,000."' This remarkable statement it made by Sir W. Arbuthnot Lane Bart., one of the world's most emin ent surgeons and dietitians, in an article appearing in the J*une 20 issue of . the Dearborn Independent According to Sir Arbuthnot, can cer is not caused by the baccillus that scientists have so long sought and .not yet found, but rather by poisons created in the body by the food that is eaten. It is a filth disoase, and its prevention is ac complished by keeping th? digestive tract thoroughly drained on its ac cumulations. Continuing the Doctor says: "What we should do then, if we would avoid cancer, is to eat whole wheat bread and raw fruits,. and vegetables, shunning all meat, first that we may be /better nourished, second that we may mora easily eliminate waste- product* and thus adequately drain the house in which oar cells live.
