THE LAW'S DEBRIS
We recently struck up an acquaint-
ance with the prorerty clerk who
'ares for all the goods and, chattels
picked up by the Police Department
-stuff seized in raids, lost and found
articles, the property of people who
have died without heirs,' and things
it -lc in taxicabs, a •hodgepodge that
fills the Clerk's office and three large
warehouses. Articles unclaimed after
six months are sold at auction, the
proceeds going to the Police Pension
Fund. . At the last auction, the cops
took in over $7,000 and" disposed of
odd lots of bicycles, adding machines,
row boats, printing presses (confis-
cated in' 'obscene literature raids),
brief cases, a tombstone, and 232
automobiles. (Some 4,000 cars year-
ly are abandoned on the streets of
New York).
Several trunks in which bodies have
been found have been put up several
times at auc!ion, no offer. The Prop-
erty Clerk also is holding a copper
urns containing the cremated remains
of one Richard Weaver, of Los An-
geles. If no claimant appears before
next summer, Richard Weaver will
be buried off Excursion Rock, a-
long with tommy guns, revol-
vers, turns'til slugs an d other
stuff "detrimental to health and
morals. -From The New Yorker.

THE HEALTH LEAGUE OF -CANADA
WHAT IS CANCER?
Cancer' a disease due to disor-
ders of the cells of one's body. Ev-
eryone knows that the human is com-
posed of cells, hundreds of millions
of them. The individual cell is ex-
tremely small. If a body cell were
magnified 500 times it would appear
to be about the size .of a small pin's
head.
Each of these cells, so infinitely
small, is a 1'ivi.ng thing. It is com-
posed of a semisolid material, has a
sort of wall and a nucleus , in its
midst. The nucleus is the most, im-
portant part of the .cell. Each indi-
vidual cell is able tomove; it is able
to gain nourishment from its clue
round•ings; it is able to breathe. What
is still more remarkable, each and ev-
ery one of the hundreds of millions
of cells in our bodies is able to re-
produce itself.
I.eproduction of oells takes place
by division. In the division of a cell
the operation begins in the nucleus.
The 'nucleus divides in two and, in
the course of from three to 12 hours,
the entire cell divides. In their sub-
sequent life the divisions of the cell
mature. When matured, they too, di-
vide just as the parent cell divided.
W:hat is the purpose of this division
Birds Are Useful
Some of the birds that save mil-
lions of dollars in crops every year
are still misjudged',. Fruit raisers of-
ten look on robins as enemies be-
cause of the robins' appetite for cher-
ries. Yet robins consume insects
harmful to fruit crops throughout the
year, and only during the flocking
periods in June and July do they eat
cultivated fruit to any extent. Wild
berries, as soon as they are ripe,
form the greater part of their food.
Woodpeckers are often suspected of
damaging trees by their drillings.
Eacth hole drilled means that the
bird has located the larva of a de-
structive woodboring insect. Wood-
peckers are among the most valuable
forest conservationists. With their
heavy bills they capture insects that
other birds cannot get.
When swallows? nests are torn from
the eaves of barns, some of the best
friends of the farm have been turned.
away. Swallows, catching ;their food
no the wing, consume vast numbers
of harmful flying • insects, especially
during the nesting and moulting per-
iods when they, like most other birds,
eat little besides animal food. Young
birds inside the nest often eat more
insects than their parents. Swallows
should be ,encouraged, to build ---en
barn eaves by .providing mud for nest
mortar and a shelf to support nests.
Even small entrance holes might be
cut in barn gables.
IMMUNITY
The word "immunity" has come in-
to common use, and it is desirable
that its meaning should be clearly un-
derstood. When a person suffers
from a Communicable disease, his
body d'ev'elops certain substances
which are called anti -bodies, and
these are the fighting farces of the
body against that particular disease.
The disease germs 'and the poisons
which they produce are the destroy-
ing forces; the antibodies are the de-
fending agents.
After recovery from most of the
'communicable diseases, the individual
continues to have present in his body
these defending agents. It is for
this reason that second attacks of
such diseases are not common. As
long as defensive forcers', strong en-
ough to prevent the germ's of a dis-
ease from, gaining a foothold, are
present, we say that the indi"viduai is
immune to that particular disease.
Immunity, therefore, means protec-
tion. When a person is immunized
against a disease, he is given immun-
ity through some of the known
means.
Im'munity varies in. different races.
The colored race seems to be natur-
ally more or less immune to certain
communicable diseases as compared
with the white race. Immunity, as
"we see it among our own people, is
usually acquired througth an attack of
the disease. If it were not that these
attacks of disease kill large numbers
and damage many who recover. from
the attack, there would not be any-
thing about which to worry. The
deaths and the damage, however, con-
stitute a menace which is indeed ser-
ious.
The ideal would be to have every-
one become immune without ,incur-
ring the dangers of the actual dis-
ease. This is really the hope of Pre-
ventive Medicine as regards the nom-
nrunicable diseases, which, because
they are spread from individual to in-
dividual, cannot be ,satisfacto lly con-
trolled in any other way. We can se-
cure imgmunlity .against smallpox
througvh v'aeclniation, And immunity
against .diphtheria through immuniza-
tion. Therein Nes the practical way
to control these two diseases.

sociation, 184 College St., Toronto,,

of Bells? The purpose is gnowth. It
is.. by division of cells that the var-
ious organs of the body develop and
grow. It is in this Way, that we
have development of bones and teeth,
of the skin and brain, of the heart
and nerves and of all parts. of one's
body.
A cancer begins as• a single cell.
At first it looks exactly like one of
the normal cells just described. It
takes an expert with tbe miscroscope
to detect any difference between a
cancer cell and a normal cell. The
cancer cell, like the normal cell, di-
vides for the purpose of growth. So
far, the cancer eell and the normal
cell are almost alike. The growth
n_aniifested by division of the normal
cell is a regular controlled process.
Thiene `itis ertainle some force in one's
body which controls ordiiry cell di-
vision, starts it when:e necessary,
stops it when division is unneces-
sary. - This control in healthy per-
sons is maintained throughout life.
The growth of a cancer cell is un-
controlled. Its growth is riotous. A
cancer cell isa sort of bolshevist. In=
stead of dividing, like the normal cell,
in the course of from tl ree to twelve
hours, there may be any divisions
of the cancer cel that 'period. It
is this rape, u ontrolled division of
the cell Ghat constitutes the main dif-
ference between normal growth and
cancer growth. If the lever of con
trot. in cell growth were discovered
we might therein have a solution of-
the
fthe cancer problem. Some inyestiga-
tors have come pretty close to the
,solution. One day it will be, found.
For Women Only
Once, when I was in one of the
Shubert productions, there was a
girl in tthe cast who was the envy of
every woman who laid eyes on her.
One night Mr. Zigfeld brought a
friendof hips, a well-known artist, to
rehearsal. '
"Isn't she the most beautiful thing
you ever saw?" proudly demanded the
producer.
"No,"lsaid the artist bluntly, "she
isn't even pretty. She has a puddling
good figure but she carries herself
supenblyl. And ,she feels beautiful.
That•is• all. Darn clever girl! Do you
know," he added seriously, "I have a
theory that every woman in the world
should say to herself at least once a,
day with great pride and even great-
er •humility: 'I have a secret. I am
beautifill; I am beloved.' And then
shd should carry herself as if she be-
lieved it!"
- Very- f-evr •women• sena. -'aeva a --p - --'
feet figure. But any woman, if she
is willing to take the trouble, can
have, something which is much more
valuable. And that is a beautiful car-
riagge.
The first principle of good carriage
is pride. To begin with, the head
should have a• proud lift. The chest
should be carried high. Find a full-
length mirror and practice walking
toward pnour reflection. (Remember
that no woman is more youthful than
ler walk. I can follow a woman
down the street for a block and guess
within five years 'of her age without
ever seeing her face.
What you wear is important, but
how you wear it is infinitely more so.
-Irene Leedon in American Magazine.
Cabbage Maggots
- Cabbage maggots attack such
pla'n'ts as cabbages; cauliflower, tur-
nips and. radishes. The adults, Which
are .two -winged flies, lay eggs on the
stems of the plants about the time
the European plum first comes into
bloom. Cabbage maggots can he
controlled by the use of corrosive
sublimate, which may be procured at
most seed houses, and wnhen used is
diluted in water at the rate of one
ounce to 10 gallons. As the sublimate
lases much of its s'treng'th when
brought into contact with metals, it
should be mixed in and applied from
glass, earthenware, or wooden ves-
sels. This point is very important.
Two or three days after the cab-
bage and; cauliflower plants have
been set out in the field, or garden,
the -solution should be poured over
the stems and around the bases of
the plants, using about ,half a cupful
for each plant. Care should be taken
to wet the stems thoroughly as well
as the soil immediately surrounding
the base. Two subsequent appldca-
ti'ons should be made, the second sev-
en days after the first application • and
the third seven days later, making
three treatments in all. It is im-
portant to make the first application
early, the success of the control
depends very largely on this point.

FIELD. CROP PROSPECTS
Crop conditions in .Ontario at the
end of the first week of June were
decidedly ,promilsing. Seeding of
spring grains was completed early
this season and germination was very
good, with the result than most fields
have a very even stand. Cool wea-
ther during the last half of May with
frost retarded growth, but did not
cause any serious damage. Frost in-
jury w!ae confined chiefly to early
strawberry blessome ,in Western On-
tario and early potatoes in the Ham-
ilton area, 'Moisture supplies are re-
ported good to excellent throughout
most of Ontario.
The numerical condition of spring
grains at the first of June was re-
Varted at about 98 per cent. of nor -
