Harry Camp, timber sales and natural resources officer of “the Tahoe national forest headquarters at Nevada City, explained, apparent discrepancies in the number of men employed at the several mills in relation to the annual production, as due to the fact that some mills contract their logs and fewer crew mem‘bers are employed than others, which have both logging and mill crews. .

Treatmene of Poliomyelitis Improved SAN FRANCISCO, March 12— Best treatment of most early polioMyelitis cases consists of a combination of the Kenny method and administration of the drug prostigmine. So says Dr. Henry Brainerd, clinical instructor in medicine and pediatrics in the Medical Schdol on the San Francisco campus of the University of California, who points out that both symptoms and course of the disease in poliomyelitis. are exceedingly varied so that much controverey has arisen @ncernineg it. Prostigmine, which stimulates the para-sympathetic nervous system, wag first used to treat poliomyelitis by Drs. Herman Kabot and Milard Knapp-of Minnesota. Experiments at the University of California Hospital have verified’ the belief that in most cases of early polio this drug relaxes the muscle spasms and aids the recovery. Physicians agree that the cause of polio is a filterable virus, an organism smaller than the bacteria. This virus may occur in sewage, probably in contaminated milk, food, and water,-and possibly may be carried by the housefly. Dr. Brainerd reports that it has been isolated from the nasal secretions. and stools of pathence ients and from excretions of appar! There will be recorded music with. ifor pastutage.
