The drug is Khallin. It comes
from a weed common in Arabia
and the eastern Mediterranean
countries. Extracts are used for
colic. '
Doctors Harold L. Osher and
Kermit H. Katz, of Boston City
hospital, reported using Khallin
on 28 persons, all with bad cases
of angina pectoris. All but three
were much relieved.
Thirteen had been unable to
work because muscular activity
caused heart attacks. Eight re
turned to work. These included
laborers, mechanics and house
wives. Khallin reduced the frequency
of painful attacks as well
raising muscular activity. The
drug dilates arteries. Angina pain
comes from constriction in art
eries which feed working blood
to heart muscles.
Some patients were taking
nitroglycerine for the heart con
dition. Khallin reduced the
amount needed.
The drug is manufactured for
doctors only by Smith, Kline
and French laboratories, Phila
delphia. It is not for sale.
Dr. Katz told of stopping
angina pain almost instantly by
poking one linger against a pa
tient's neck. This was done with
patients who volunteered as
guinea pigs.
They brought on attacks by
taking exercises in the doctor's
presence.
tie men would place one
finger tip on the side of the neck,
over tne carotid sinus, a nerve
center. Pressure at that point
stopped the pain. This expert

possibility of relieving angina
pains by treating nerve reflexes.
These pains are fairly wide

Many Fields Show Signs
Of Plant Food Deficiencies
Silverton Farmers that are interested in studying the
fertilizer needs of the fields on their farms should take time
during the next few days to make a careful study of the plants
in all of their fields, according to a report from the soil con
servation service headquarters at Silverton.
Now when there is ampie moist-e-
ure is one of the best times of
the year to see the indications
of different food deficiencies.
Due to the cool weather many
grain fields in the Silver Creek
Soil Conservation district have
a definite yellow green color.
Scattered through the fields are
spots of dark green which are
usually two or six inches higher
than the yellow plants next to
them. This dark green color is
due to ample supply of nitrogen.
On the other hand the yellow
green color is a sign of nitrogen
deficiency. A temporary correc
tion of this problem may be ob
tained by using commercial nit
rogen fertilizers, but for the far
mer who wishes to correct the
basic problem it will require
changes in crop rotation, use of
legumes in the grass mixtures
and liming of the soil to make
more ideal environment for
some of our soil micro-organisms.
This problem is probably most
severe in areas that tend to be
wet and if possible should be
drained.
A close examination of plants
will sometimes reveal plants
with red stems and nodes. In
various stages of plant defic
iencies this red coloration may
extend to the lower leaves and
in a few cases to the entire plant, j
Often associated with this con-i
dition are brown edges and spots
on many leaves. In fact, a few
of the lower leaves may be turn
ed completely brown. i
This is probably an interming
ling of plant deficiency signs all
of which we are not entirely able
to seperate as to the cause of the
exact problem here in the Silver
Creek district. These hunger
signs are due to a lack of phos
phate, potash or boron or to a
combination of these deficiencies
says Austin Sanford, local SCS
technician.
In order to study these prob-
lcms the supervisors of the Sil

trict have asked the cooperation
of Harry Riches, County Exten
sion agent and the Soil Conser

This has already been done for
cover crops and additional stu
dies are now being made on fields
to be planted to red clover dur
ing the coming spring. More def
inite information should be avail
able on these fields next year.
Sanford suggests that farmers
study their fields and see wheth
er they are being troubled by
some of these deficiencies.

Super Flies Build Resistance to
DDT; Scientists Begin to Worry
Corvallis, Ore., April 21 Super flies are getting radio
active doses of DDT here in a laboratory battle against their
spread. Already they are a menace in more than half the
states.
The geiger counter tells A. W. Lindquist he's the federal en
tomologist in charge that the
flies have absorbed the once le-
thai DDT. But analysis shows
that these super flies have turn
ed it into harmless form.
Pest control operators of five
Pacific northwest states, who
closed a three-day meeting here
yesterday at Oregon State col
lege, told Lindquist they had to
have help: DDT, once hailed as
the miracle killer, isn't wiping
out the flies any more.
That was no lews to Lind
quist, who was one of the fed
eral entomologists who learned
in 1945 experiments in Florida
that some flies were building up
a resistance to DDT.
Two years ago the tough flies
that DDT wouldn't kill were
found in 25 states. Last year
they were found in the state col
lege swine barn here.
Soon these super flies will be
everywhere. They are the off
spring of the first flies touched
but not killed by DDT. In suc
ceeding generations they have
built up their immunity; have
turned DDT into DDE and DDA.
These last are long-name harm
less substances.
Lindquist and his co-workers
know they do it but they don't
know how they do it.
If they can learn that, a new
insecticide whose death-dealing
qualities cannot be changed by
the flies then can be sought.

Why let gummy gas spoil smooth
You can feel the difference not only in the city, but out on the highway, and over the tough grades!
Most motorists don't know it, but when a car doesn't want to get
started when it strains at every take-off . . . it's often because
sticky gum is slowing down its engine. Most raw gasoline con
tains impurities that form gum, and the only way to get them out
is to refine them out. CHEVRON Supreme is the gasoline that's
Supe r-Refined to remove that engine-sticking gum. Try it in your
Until they learn it, the 14th
generation of a fly that survives
its first touch of DDT will be
gin to show immunity. And the
58th generation will be almost
wholly immune. Those 58 gen
erations are no Ion g-term
growth. Depending on weather,
they could be reached in four or
five years.
Lindquist showed the pest
control operators 79 th genera
tion flies. He showed them, by
the Geiger counter, that they had
absorbed radio-active DDT. And
they were fat and buzzing.
He told them neither he nor
Dr. Joseph S. Butts, head of the
state college agricultural chem
istry department who is work
ing with him, could say how the
flies do it. He said only that they
hoped to find out.
In the meantime, he said, they
might try one of the newer in
secticides, chlordane, in their
fly-fight. He warned that it is
dangerous around food and
hence cannot be used generally.
But it might help a bit, he
said, to hold back the increas
ing fly population until his or
other experiments pay off.
