there is just as much potato disease
in the United States as in Canada,
and that the object of embargo is to
keep the American market for the.
potato -growers of Maine, A pecu-
liar feature .of the situation, how-
ever, is that while Hon. Martin
Burrell has not decided upon a
policy of retaliation he has . been
practically advised to do so by Dr.
Gussow, DominionBotanist, who
has been looking into the potato

ROYAL VISIT TO IRELAND.
The King and Queen May Ge to
Dublin In July.
A. despatch from London says:
King George and Queen Mary are
already considering a visit to Dub-
lin in July of this year. It is un-
derstood that the King will con-
form bis” movements, to far as Ire-
land is concerned, to the advice of
his Ministers, and will adopt no
course that will hamper any of the
Political parties with which the gov-
ernment of the island is a. matter of
keen concern. The opinion in well-
inforined quarters is that there will
be no extended 'sojourn in Ireland
until the present period of tension
has been definitely ended.

Dr. Lazarus Barlow, the London Surgeon, Reports
Astonishing Results in Cancer Fight
A despatch from London says;
The London Times on Thursday
published a statement concerning
radirmn treatment of -cancer at
Middlesex; Hospital, which, it de-
) clares, records the most important
advance yet achieved in the cam-
paign against the disease, The
statement is made by Dr. Lazarus
Barlow, under whose direction the
treatment was carried out. The
cancer department of the hospital
admits only inoperable cases; that
is, be said, cases which have passed
beyond the aid of the surgeon.
From June to • September, 1912,
twenty-four such oases were admit-
ted, and in the same time there
were twenty-four deaths, the mor-
tality rate being one hundred per
cent. From June - to- September;
1910, sixty-eight cases were admit-
ted. In that tinge thirty-six deaths
occurred, and thirty-two ,patients
were in 90 favorable: u. state as to
be diecharged frons the hospital an.
unprecedented event. Most of geese
patients are now going about their
daily work, In one or two oases a
reourreno° has taken place, but
Dr. Lazarus Barlow hopes that with
fuller knowledge of the action of
radium recurrences will bo pre-
vented.
Dr, Barlow said it was possible
in some cases that they ab present
did not give a sufficient powerful
dose of the remedy. If 150 milli-
grams of radium were buried in a
cancerous tumor it simply withered
up and disappeared, but it was sug-
gested that occasionally a few cells
were left unkilled. 'These after-
wards' caused a rccurl'ence by be-
coming active.
He has not so far published the
details of his results 'because he de-
sired to follow up the History of his
cases a little farther. Time was
required to substantiate the re-
markable results achieved and no
one shonkl talk of an absolute once
until his results had been substan-
tiated by time, Nevertheless "there
could no longer bo any doubt as to,
the immediate effect of. radiant

Thomas Shaughnessy, C.P.R. ex-
