Many Turn to the Land. Notwithstanding present low prices of farm products, recent returns from Alberta and 'Saskatchewan indicate that there is- a considerable move- nientt to the land. In Alberta 3,635 enrtries for homestead land were corded during 1932. • As Alberta grants free homesteads only to pineteious residents of the province ,this represents a substantial land- ward ,movement of her own people. The area represented . by this settle- ment is approximately 581,600 acres. In :Saskatchewan free homesteads are not granted but public lands suitable for agrhniflturat purpose are sold to persons who have been residents, of the province. 'During the last fiscal year 3;262 farms, comlprising 580,160 acres were ,pond to settlers. In addi- tion 240 parcels of pasture land, com- prising 38,400 acres were disposed of. —lMitdhell Advocate Surgery Rebuilds Shattered Men Probably the most amazing hu- man repair job I have ever seen per- formed -was on a soldier whose whole lower jaw had been shot away. Sur- gery , gave hirci a new jawbone and surrounded his cotmtparatively unin- jured tongue with an artificial, mouth sculptured from transplanted, living flesh, To -day, his only :isirjle dis- figurement is en inch or two of scar on either cheek! How was this miracle. performed? First; the surgeon modeled en arti- ficial jawbone from vulcanite, the hard-rulbber compound used by dent- islis in" making :Plates. This frame- work he screwed to the stumps of the jawbone. The, next step was to construct a from- for the artifi,ci ai mouth._ The material used' had to be netcous anlenilbrane like that on the inside of your •cheek. So, on the in - /side of each cheek he cut a triangu- lar flap. Then he turned down tale two flaps 'and served them together. The res'u'lt was a serviceable lining, for the new mouth In the last stage of the operation the surgeon used the patient's own scalp as anterial for molding the chin and covering the artificial jaw- Ibone and the gap...left in the cheeps. Across the top of the head, from ear to ear, he cut a strip of scalp, leav- ing it ,permanentl,y attached just a- bove each year. This stnip. he slip- ped .dlown in front of the face and over the artificial jaw and cheeks un- til it assumed the position ,of a wide ohin-strap. , 'Then ,he molded it .into place, stitching the scalp flap to the, healthy 'skin of the cheeks and neck. Hair roots, carried in this transplanted material. produced a thick beard which later hid most of the operation scars. To fill the scalp -reminds, skim. grafts were taken from the patient's' thigh. By a lucky chance, his legs weenie coated with an unusually heavy growth of hair which, when trans- planted to thee scalp, concealed the bscars on the head. Thus, one topsy- turvy result of this amazing piece of surgery is the fact that the patient's beard came from: the top of his head and :hair now covering his :scalp orig- inally grew on his leg! Such achieveimlents of the operat- ing room read like fairy tales; yet, in the surgical reports of almost any large city, you will find similar 'won- der )stories of human carplentl y. Spik- ing living g nerves (as, an electrician splices wires, dovetailing bones as a caaipenter dovetails wood, severing muscles in place as a lseam.s'hres,s sews cloth, the modern surgeon ad- justs and repairs the human body, IA 'mira'ele of 'surgery was per- formed upon a bby born without antis. When he was 12 years old, ala x-ray showed that each armless [shqulder' eonoealed a email, undervel- otped arm bone. Dr. Harry E.„ Mock, a •Ohicago surgeon, decided upon a daring e,epe'riment;. He made two four -inch incisions (below each shovl- defr and reached the hidden, shrivel. ed bone. Oa'ttelfu 1y cutting it free, he *led' ' 01Stlear* * els r 08.'le i'0 the bone, he � i , cif 1pewieefel clbereV letrerdl !Orly. tO"waer la, err od the !bone, 'using strong braier Mae ''i Finally, he covered the etuwnA with grafted akin and let it heal: tDay lby der, the p!o'wtill' and flex- ibility of the ObW* filer -eased.

He soon leaaned••to use these so teeperbly that he can now deres hiniee'lf and even write letters on an ordinary type- writer. :Repair. Work on arteries .is one of the =est ticklish tasks a surgeon hats to face. Yet, in Paths not long ego, 'surgeons actually joined two arteries together, as a plulmfber might join piipere to form one continuous channel for the bloodstream. Their feat was part of a :spectacular opera- tion upon a boy which made a new thumb out ,of his big toe. A case in which a man lost all four. 'fingea's in an accident but re- tained his thumb resulted in a daa- miatiic piece of work by the famous New York surgeon, Dr. Fred Alibee. Hone eras cut from the patient's owns shinibone to create a 'finger. Rapidly it was. Shaped on a miniature lathe, given a 'scre'w thread at one end, abut then screwed into an opening drilled in this hone at/ the base of the miss- ing forefinger•: A flap of flesh, from', the patienyt's abdomen, was molded a- round the bona and sewed up. In time, the (bone grerw solidly "bo that of the hand and the finger, although it had no joint, enabled the patient to button his clothes and handle' ,tools. Because 'grafted bones mast be transferred quidkly.;and mast be the same type as the i est of the patient's - bones, thety, are .nasally taken from his shin. .For this reason, bone sur- geons oftee refer to the shin as 'the human luimberyrard. In a few months new (bone fermis and fills the gap. By shifting the position of a ten-• don -from the back of the leg to the front, the surgeon ,can sometimes aid those who have been attacked by in- fantile 'paralysis. As a result of in- fantile •paralysis, a :young dentist'% right foot dragged when he attempt- ed to walk. For years he wore brac- es. (Then a !simple operation was performed. The tendon of one of the large :muscles of the bank of the leg, which was not paralyzed was switched around to the front of the leg and fastened with kangaroo ten- dons to the tough •miemlbrane beside the anklebone. Here it took the place of the paralyzed Muscles along the .shinbone, allowing Irian to raise the previously useless foot at will. Another phase of the human car- pentry which goes on in the operat- ing room is the repair of ;broken and injured nerves. Because the thin- walled tubes that form the sheaths, or inefulatien, for the. glistening white. nerves are easily torn, the work of sewing the ends together is particu- arly dedicate. 'Only nerves an eighth of i_n inch in diameter or more are joined. Unlike a' broken electric wire, which will carry current as Goon as it is joined, a selvlered nerve requires months betfare it will fun - tion again. Below the point where it is cut, the nerve remains dead and a r ew nerve has to grow down through the sheath as the old one disinte- grates and is absorbed Iby the body. The rate at which the new nerve pushes down through the old sheath s approximately an inch a month, or a little move than a foot a year. The most dramatic bit of nerve re- aming of which I have ever heard occurred in a London hospital seeeral years ago. A large nerve trunk had • :een •seeered in a patient's arm by a shotgun wound. •Four inches of the terve were gone, so It was impos- sible to join the two ends. The surgeon ' learned that an'ot'her patient was to hatvle his leg amputat- ed the same afternoon at another hos- pital. As so`on as the"leg was ampu- tated, it was placed in a rwasm salt eolution and rushed by taxicab to the room where the nerve operation was being performed. When it arrived, it was still warm. The patient was already under the anesthetic. Working rapidly, the sur- geon took out four ii eves of a large nerve item the amputated limb ..and spliced it carefully to the two endis of the severed trunk in the arm of anis own patient. The, result of this srpectarcullar operation was a come plete success. Thus, using living nerves and bones and flesh as the material with which he works, the specialist per- forans feats of reconstruction and re- pair. Such achievements in human carpentry, relatively unknown to the general public, constantly add amaz- ing new miracles to the records of the.. operating room. Timely Repair Tips . It pays to keep in mind many of the less conspicuous parts of the car which are not properly lubricated be- cause they are overlooked so easily. One of these, almost' invariably for- gotten in the lubricating process, is the top of the steering gear poet. A few drops of light oil applied at this point every few thousand miles will bake a7ray' that grinding noise when one tugs at the wheel as in parking. Clutch and !brake pedal shafts need a little lubricant once in a while. Neg- lect causes excessive wear, resulting in noisy pedal action.

Keeping springs fat is not a matter imlerrely of keeping the friction quali- ties between the leaves constant and in keeping with the car. A point us- ually rywe'rlooked is that springs tend to flatten out so they are unable to clo their best work: This also inter- feres with the action of the devices that control the spring recoil. It is the first half -titch of spring deflection that makes for the easiest ride. This is when the springs are doing their best work as the car's natural shock aibsorbers and no amount of added equipment can com- pensate for this loss which develops through wear. When springs flatten just a quarter of an inch it is ob- vious that this much of their first half-inch of best d'erflection has been sacrificed_ The remedy is to have therm removed and re -arched. * * * lfotcir car owners wiles* automo- bile's •have both generator and start- • * « In stepping on the starter button, hbhe a motorist should eltt decialvtly, wlhli lh lnoweiufe�Tr in noel to be cole7s, Mg naotor'cainanulators, will find that the brushes of the formler will wear more rapidly because they are given much greater uea.
