A Wonderful: New Invention
Promises Great Changes
: Dr, O. L. Scott na Jnst leased
a new machine called' the Neuro
calometer, a ; highly sensitive in
strument for,' allocating ' spinal
trouble by heat variations. The
invention was : made after years
of study by Dr. G. B. Palmer and
Dr. D.i D. Evins of the Palmer
School of Chiropractic.
"The Neurocalometer," stated
Dr.' Scott in discussing the inven
tion, j"is based on several funda
mental facts In the theory of chir
opractic. Chiropractic rests
broadly on four premises. ; We
believe that disease can be traced
to subluxations of the vertebrae,
to nerve pressure and to barriers
in nerve transmission. A cub
luxated . vertebra is one partially
dislocated 'sub because the dis
location is a minor one or is In
complete. A pressure on a nerve
center causes a positive barrier
and a negative nerve transmis
sion, ; which we seek to remove by
an adjustment; of the subluxated
part;! in order to bring about
negative pressure and a positive
transmission of nerve messages.
"When nerves are pressing
against one another we have what
might be called' a short circuit or
a holbox," explained Dr. Scott;
"The same thing occurs when ver
tebrae are subluxated, inflamma
tion land heat being produced at
these! points of resistance. The
purpose of the Neurocalometer is
in being able tq detect these, min
ute differences In heat created by
crossed " nerves, and recording
them." '
When the Neurocalometer was
first presented to Chiropractic,
tests were made by the United
States bureau of standards at
Washington, and the report was
returned by experts that it accu
rately registered thermal differ
ences! of l-l 00th of a degree cen
tigrade. Dr. B. J. Palmer has
now applied tor six patents on the
invention in 17 countries. All
Plans are being made for a
huge field day program to be held
late next week at the North Four
teenth street playground as a fit
ting close 'Of the summer play
ground; season, which will end a
week from Friday. The play
ground, as well as the South Sa
lem playground at the Lincoln
school, was opened June 29.
; During the two months that, the
play has been directed under the
supervision of trained .workers,
hundreds., of ; Salem , youngsters
have visited' the grounds, taking
part in the. athletic games, swim
ming events, races and story tell
ing hours-, i . .' ... . ;
Just how many youngsters were
on the grounds this year has not
been ascertained as a complete
check has not yet been taken. The
Soiuth Salem playground was ad
ded this 'year, under, the supervis
ion 'of. Miss aDnta Robblns, a stu
dent at OAC, and has had a daily
attendance of . between r 50 and 75
younsters. The North Fourteenth
street playground, an established
institution, had more to offer in
amusement as a special swimming
pojol had been ; constructed. The
work here was In charge of Miss
Grace Snook and Leslie Sparks.
Cdol weather and a ban upon the
pojol for nearly a week tended to
cut down the attendance this year
and the other playground attract
ed many that had gone to the
N4rth Salem playground in pre
vious years. The attendance how
ever, was more than 14)0 each day,
on an average. ; j
; jWith fruit picking In full sway
and the hop yard attracting many
families, the work .is being wound
up1 for the year, as the youngsters
are accompanying their families
tot the orchards and hop yards. .

List of Green Prunes
To Move Over Week-End
Last of the green prunes will
be " picked and shipped over the
week-end and probably wind up
the season, is the concensus of
opinion of a number of growers
and shippers. Operations at pres
ent are almost at a standstill.
Fruit received during the v last
day of two has been cracked by
the rain to such an extent that
one packing plant had to put on
an ; increased force yesterday to
sort the prunes.
Picking was called off yester
day by Young & Wells, though
it was said the lay-off would: be
temporary and the order Issued
to relieve congestion at the warehouse.
Astonishment Is the emotion ex
perienced by your relatives when

! Shipment of green prunes for
the eastern market will come to a
sudden halt in , Dallas today.
Denny &. company ; gave orders
Wednesday morning by telephone
to the local plant authorizing
them to notify all growers to
cease picking and to . stop packing
operations Thursday. i: ' ,
I Cracking of , prunes from the
recent rain , was assigned as the
cause for the move. , The decision
to cease shipment came : like a
bolt out of the blue for yesterday
buyers were at work among . the
growers and notification was sent
to prune men to pick their prunes
as' fast as possible, notwithstand
ing the rain. ' .. -. -j ; .
The cracking has , been slight
and is of no consequence whatever
Boj 'far as drying , is . concerned,
local - prune men state.,! A con
tinued rain will have a bad effect,
however, as the fruit is ripening
rapidly. ' i . , . ,
- .The dropping out of the green
prune shippers at the ' height of
their ; season means that, a larger
amount will be dried here than
had been anticipated. The pack
ers shipped out between- 40 and
50 cars of. green fruit from Dal
las, ; or approximately half of the
amount they had signed' up,: Some
growers had cleaned up 1 their
crop,, .while others will, have ;.a
considerable carry over of fruit to
dry."'!;" " ,
i Opinions differ here -as to the
time the drying will start. It 's
prboable, however, that' some fruit
will have to be cared for by Sep
tember 1, lor possibly a few days
earner, l- - .,.'
No brown rot has developed in
the prunes taken in here, . and a
very careful check was kept on
this during the operations of the
green fruit packers. ; : i'
It is, entirely possible that some
thing other than the cracking of
the prunes has caused the cutting
off of tho shipments. . tt was pre
dicted j on -the . start- from many
points that prunes were , being
taken too green and -it is. possible
the condition of the first cars nt
the market had something to do
with the fear or the effects of the
rain. . If-.-.
. .The prunes handled this week
have been jof much better quality,
aside from a small percentage pt
cracked ones, than had been han
dled earlier.
