NEW CANCER TREATMENT
DISCOVERED IN FRANCE
PARIS. — The theory that cancer
is not of microbic origin but is due
to the excessive elimination of cer
tain substances normally contained
in the blood, is supported by a re
port of the researches of Professor
Dubard, just published by the Acad
emy of Medicine.
Finding that the system of can
cerous subjects was particularly
poor in magnesia, Professor Dubard
administered large doses of it to j
patients operated on for cancer, and I ]
reports encouraging results in a!
large number of cases.
EAST OF NENAIIA
Woodbury Abbey’* Parties Making
Public Land Surveys, Are
Progressing.
The survey parties under the
direction of Woodbury Abbey, as
sisted by E. C. Guerin, U. S. transit
man, are reported to be making
great progress with the work.
The main camp is situated on the
south bank of Little Goldstream, and
Mr. Guerin, who has charge of one
of the two parties, is working in
a north-easterly direction from this
camp along Goldstream.
Owing to the poor and uncertain
transportation facilities along Gold
stream, Mr. Abbey has decided to
reorganize the work and with that
end in view came into town Satur
day with one of the parties.
This party, which is directly under
Mr. Abbey’s supervision, will tem
porarily work along the north bank
of the Tanana river in an easterly
direction, carrying their camp out
fit and supplies with them and camp
ing where the end of the day’s work
finds them.
Mr. Abbey’s party will work east
wards until they reach a point a
few miles to the east of Jimmy
Sizeland’s place. They will then
work over and across the range of
hills until they meet and join the
party under Mr. Guerin.
A boat will be used for the pur
pose of transporting the camp out
fit and grub for Mr. Abbey’s party.
