Jesse Currie In . the Sunday Oregonlan says there Is a possibil ity of Oregon having a new hor ticultural industry." now that' It baa been , discovered that sugar made from dahlia tubers has great medical value. According to the Sclntific American, the form ula for making this valuable su- ga r , has Jbeea.' worked out in Ihe laboratories of the University r of Southern California, '. and ,, fir. v Laird Stabler, head of the depart- ment, says the process . la . now complete, ft has been estblished that the sugar from the dahlias is ihe only commercial levulose or trnitsugar which may he used 14 a no-sugar. diet by patients suf fering with diabetes." r The new sugar Is one and one half times as .sweet as cane or beet sugar hut it will hardly rival them , commercially, for the dah . li bulb contains a. smaller quan tity by far. than does a beet root of the same size. Saccharine was the only sweet allowed those Buf fering from diabetes and there has ; been a controversy in the medical field as to whether or not this was harmful to the digestion. Saccharine ha sho food properties but, ihe lasts with -dahlia sugar show Jt furnishes Joeat and energy for the body the same as cane or beet - sugar; iTpgei the best re sults tne .dahlias are -not allowed the blooms reduce amount of sugar in the dahlia, roots. In California it Is " declared more dahlias can' be raised to - the 'acre " than sugar beets. ' In western Oregon dahlias do. wonderfully well. Therefore there Is a possibility: that if the sugar becomes a real medicine, this state will ; be called upon to produce its quota. . to' flower for Tnatrially'!the, WILL USE MRS : ' 1 i . " v . e, Possibilities of Developing a Large Bean Industry in h Salem District ; Only one , cannetry at Salem packed -; string beans last year the cannery of the Oregon Packing company. This same cannery will pack beans again the coming year. .. The canning of beans is differ ent from the putting up of fruits and, other vegetableswtakes dif ferent machinery', and appliances. The Oregon packing company last year put In special bean- canning equipment, at their big building aero as the tracks from the South ern Pacific passenger depot, where they also have their pickle factory. The Hunt company packed some - beans this year, but not. at their Salem cannetry. They were put up at their Albany cannery. Future of Bean Industry .It Is ; evident that the Oregon Packing company people were sat isfied with the (beans they , got here last year. They will get a higher; grade hereafter, because some of the growers were experi menting last year, ana win be aoie to produce a better "bean here -in ! the .future: " ', .

' And we should grow. our own supply of the Oregon Lima beans. making as good a quality as the California Lima. STffJDARD HOSPITAL iliHNTS SET American 'College of Sur- ' geons Outlines Minimum , Jest to Be Applied T&ejGranddaughterot r Teddy The minimum requirement nec essary to become a standardized hospital as laid down by Ihe Amer ican College of Surgeons is: 'First Physicians, and 'surgeons privileged to practice in the hos pital must be organized into a hospital staff, which means that all who practice in the hospital will have previously become mem bers of the staff, or one of the sta'ff groups if there be more than the regular staff. Second Membership on the staff Is. restricted to physicians fcnd surgeons who are full gradu ates in medicine in good standing, licensed by the proper legal au thorities. They must be compe tent in their respective "or special field, worthy in character and professionally ethical. For. exam ple, the practice of division or splitting of fees is frowned on as unethical practice, In fact it Is pro hibited. Third The staff is expected to initiate and in conjunction with the directors and superintendent of the hospital inaugurate rules, regulations, and policies governing the professional work of the hos pital. The rules must provide among other things that staff meetings shall be held at least once each month, that the staff shall review and analyze their clinical experience in the various departments of the hospital, such as medicine, surgery, obstetrics and other specialties, the clinical records of patients to form the ba sis for such analysis and review without of course divulging the name or identity of any individual case. fourth Accurate and complete records must be written for all patients and filed in the hospital in such form that they will be easily referred to. A complete case, record is described as one which includes identification data, complete personal and family data, history of present illness, physical examination, special ex aminations -such as consultations, clinical laboratory. X-ray, and any other examinations, working diag- it "Pr A A I If ' " v v 1 v v y- v - w j ' A t ? B 1 - ' - - f i 1 V 4 - I I k " : : r X y If V.'li! I I II . I .

These, very briefly stated, are the mini mum requirements necessary to become a standardized hospital, and of course it goes without say ing that the utmost cleanliness and the very best sanitary condi tions are a primary consideration. Only in rare cases are exceptions from the above permitted, and that may be where a hospital lacks in certain equipment but which they are striving to supply, and medical attention that fs savail able.' It Will readily 'ibe seen1 that standardization aims to coordinate the professional or business and administrative sides of the hos pital into an organic unit, all working for the same objective, the best treatment for the patient. The professional or medical staff by means of their monthly meet ings, the chief function of which is to review and analyze the clinical work and results achieved in ihe hospital treatment since the last meeting of the staff, will constant ly improve the methods and prac iiCe of the members of the staff, for no one can doubt that we all learn from each other by contact arid exchange of ideas. The old day has passed. Many will re member when the physician and surgeon was surrounded by mys tery and secrecy as to his proced ure.

To expedite the granting of applica tions for extensions of time in which to file income tax returns. Commissioner of Internal Revenue David II. Blair has delegated to I collectors of internal revenue the ' authority to grant such extensions. -Heretofore, under the! revenue act of 1924, applications for exten sions have been addressed to "the commissioner. . Extensions are granted jn cases of absence, sickness or inability to obtain data to make a correct re turn with certain provisions. No extension will be granted unless application is made therefor on or before March 15, the date pre scribed by law for filing the re turn. Illness or absence of a par ticular officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership does not constitute, in itself, a suffic ient reason for granting the cor poration or partnership such ex tension. In no case will a particular ex tension be granted for more than 90 days. The usual time is from 30 to 60 days. Where a taxpayer requests an extension; of more than 90 days, the extension may be granted only for 90 days and the collector will advise ihe taxpayer that if heyjs, ; unable' to file the completed,,return prior to the ex piration of7thye DO-day.period. a new application should be made before thaperijd expires. In the icaee'ot .corporations, no extension of time usually may be granted, unless conditioned upon the filing of a tentative return and payment of one-fourth the esti , mated tax, on or before the date prescribed by law for filing the return. Individuals also are required to file a tentative . return and pay one-fourth of the estimated tax, on or before the date prescribed by law for filing returns, whenever, in the opinion of the collector, it is possible for the particular In dividual to do so. In all cases of requests for an. extension conditioned upon the filing of a tentative return and payment of one-fourth of the esti mated tax shown thereon, such re quirements must be met or the ex tension is of J10 effect. , The tax payer need only show on his ten tative return, filed on appropriate blanks, his name and address and the estimated amount, of any, of the tax due. i4 case records but are showing steady improvement. A limited number of hospitals have been passed with a star which means "accepted with certain reserva tions, or that certain practices are yet to be improved upon. In the opinion of this writer the day is not far distant when the public will expect to find in he lobby or waiting . rooms of all hos pitals a framed certificate of standardization, just as the physi cian displays in his office his col lege credentials. When that time arrives any person entering such a hospital may be assured that in committing himself into the care of that Institution he is guaran teed the very best service and member of that staff, thev find that after all their problems are very much the same. "The young er practitioner is thus given his opportunity to express himself and the older man may also ideas from the younger men as well as hav ing the Joy of imparting some of his knowledge gained from a more ripened experience. It would seem inevitable that general hosnital standardization will greatly assist the medical profession to speedily improve upon already greatly ad vanced methods of practice, while the average time of the patient in hospital is being steadily reduced because of the higher standard of care given to the patient and through better hospital methods.

That is the weight of the average summer costume of the American woman. Silk, combined with feminine ingenui ty, has reduced the five-pound costume of the past century to an eight- ounce average, according to the Real Silk Institute of Indianapolis, Indiana. , ' Milady's costume today. is in a pocket size edition. Dress, slip, ted dy or step-in. and hose, for that makes up the ensemble, could be tucked into a man's vest pocket without causing a rumple on his coat front. Silk, the smallest yet the strongest of all fibers, is.no longer the mark of wealth. It is merely a symbol of sense in dress. It offers com fort and practicability combined with beauty, the three requirements of the wardrobe demanded by the smartly costumed woman. Now all the world Is silk clad. The summer costume consists of a brassiere, teddy, slip, dress and hose. The brassiere Is usually of firmly woven silk weighing approxi mately one half ounce. The teddy or step-tn. of crepe de chine, georg ette, radium or wash silk will as an average tip the scales at one and a half ounces. The hose of sheer chiffon weigh half an ounce or if of the heavier, silk another fourth of announce weight is added. The slip and dress are usually of equal weight, the dress being almost as ileeyeiesa. as the slip and ihe m- i terials much the same. Dresses of j crepe de chine, or georgette" crepe or soft layers of chiffon often weigh less than two ounces, not as much as a small, pair of scissors and three times less than one kid slipper of a number four size. ; The eight-ounce : estimate ex cludes the hat and shoes, the two heaviest items of the wardrobe. But even with this added the total weight is but 21 jounces... . The cos tume of 1914, only a decade ago probably weighed four times this' I amount.
