Cause of Fruit Poison
ing Discovered at U. 0.
Portland, Ore., June 4. Research
workers at the University of Oregon
Medical School have succeeded in
Covering the cause of so-called
fruit poisoning, a disease which at
tacks hundreds of workers in the
anneries and packing houses of the
Northwest during the fruit packing
season. .
After six months of investigation,
Pr. Lyle Kingery, Professor of der
matology, and Dr. C. H. Thienes, pro
fessor of pharmacology, have isolat
ed the organism that produces the
disease and they are now on the way
to finding the most effective means
of checking and preventing the mal
ady. Dr. Kingery will present the
results of their investigation before
the annual meeting of the American
Society of Dermatologists in Minne-
polis in July.
Fruit poisoning is a painful skin
infecton whch attacks workers who
pare and cut fruit in canneries. Those
who hull strawberries are also liable
to be infected. The disease causes
the persons infected to be complete
ly incapacitated for a month or two
and often results in loss of the fin
ger nails. Before the investigations
of the University of Oregon men were
made, the cause of the disease was
unknown. The infection causes large
economic loss to the fruit industry
and its workers.
When sufferers from fruit poison-
ng were brought to Portland hospit
als last year, Dr. Thienes and Dr.
Kingery became interested in discov
ering a cure for the disease, which
was then unclassified by medical
science. They made trips to Oregon
orchards and canneries, and studied
cases of the poisoning, finally isolat-
ng the organsim which caused the
rouble. They are now experimenting
at the Medical School to find the
best means of exterminating the or
gansm from the human body so that
cures may be effected.

Men Who Climb Poles
Are Safer Up There
Sometimes a lineman, working on
top a pole is glad that he is not ex
posed to the hazards of the traffic in
the street beneath him. His sense of
security may be traced to the ramark
able precautions taken to remove
what to the layman would seem to be
inherent dangers of his job.
To say that a lineman must be
trained is not to intimate that he
must develop himself into arLaerobat,
a steeple-jack, or a "human-fly." In
fact, precisely the opposite qualifica
tions are those of the ideal lineman,
who works aloft. The daredevil is not
wi.nted. The characteristics wuich
are essential are a cool bead, steady
nerves, the ability to recognize dang
er and the common sense to avoid it
when recognized.
To the layman, the most obvious
danger the lineman faces is that of
falling. Utility men declare, however,
that only a relatively small propor
tion of accidents are of this kind.
Standardized belts, safety straps and
spurs and regular inspection of this
equipment by company inspectors
have materially reduced the number
of injuries due from falls from poles,

Eugene, Ore., June 4. A gift of
$30,000 from P. L. Campbell, presi
dent of the Universtiy of Oregon, and
family, brings the total subscriptions
to the alumni fund of the University
Gift Campaign to $312,232. The pres

Graduates and former students are
giving liber:!ly to the fund which is
to be used for sorely needed build
ings, particularly a new library
building, on the campus at Eugene.
Contributions are being received from
all parts of the country. Alumni in
New York City have sent $4400, Bos

$1140, Los Angeles $3000, Spokane

"Safe home canning requires care
ful attention to every step in the
process."
This is the rule announced by the
O. A. C. extension service in putting
out a bulletin with succinct direct
ions for each step, on information
supplied by the federal bureau of
home economics and approved by the
horticultural products department of
the college.
The new time tables for processing
supersede all former recommenda
tions and tables published by the
state and the federal departments
on home canning. They give the safe
time for Oregon fruits and smal
fruits, and for most vegetables.
Only the clean, sound and fresh
produce is to be used for canning,
It should be taken preferably within
two hours after harvesting and thor
oughly washed as for cooking. Every
bit of soil is to go, as it may contain
dangerous bacteria hard to kill.
The fruits and vegetables are then
given a short pre-cooking. Full di
rections for processing follow the
general instruction. Bulletin may be
obtained by applying to the college
at lorvallls.

Takes Hundred Wires To
Equal One Human Hair
Tungsten and copper-nickel wires
so fine that it takes one hundred of
them to equal tn thickness a single
human hair are now being made In
the United States. The eobweb metal
strands, used in electric vacuum
thermo-couples to measure the most
delicate atlernating currents, are on-
Iv one five-thousandths of an inch In i
diameter. They are practically invis- I
ible, except as they reflect a streak
of light, and can be handled and
soldered only under a microscope.
No metal can be drawn to this
diameter. The tungsten or copper
nickel alloy is first wire-drawn thru
dies made of pierced diamonds, and
after this it is submerged in an elec
trolytic bath and gradually eaten
down to the necessary size.
Before the World War, the finest
thermo-couples were made in Ger
many, and those used here were
largely imported. American manu
facture began with our entry into the
war, and since that time our electric
al experts have reached s degree of
perfection in making of these tiny
instruments equaled in no other
country.
