Levulose Sugar Is One and

. 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

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

Is " declared more dahlias can' be
raised to - the 'acre " than sugar

do. wonderfully well. Therefore
there Is a possibility: that if the
sugar becomes a real medicine,
this state will ; be called upon to

company. This same cannery will
pack beans again the coming year.
.. The canning of beans is differ

The Oregon packing company last
year put In special bean- canning
equipment, at their big building

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

It is predicted that in the

American 'College of Sur-

, 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-

of death, autopsy findings.
Fifth It is the function of the
hospital to furnish facilities under
competent supervision for the stu
dy, diagnosisand treatment'of pa
tients which mu'st -include a clinic
al laboratory including chemical,
bacteriological, serological and
pathological service, also an X-ray
department , prpvidin g radiographs
and flueroscopic service. 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. The new day brings a spirit
of greater co-operation between
all members of hospital staffs

PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 6. 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.

Af 8-OUNCE WARDROBE FOR MILADY
EIGHT ounces. 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. '
