This may mean the end of one of the greatest scourges of mankind, crippler of young and old alike, within the next five years Furthermore, such an immunity would last for many years, possibly for the life time of the individual, the studies on animals and humans have revealed. These findings are indirect contradictions to the widely held belief that only natural infection or vaccination with a modified living g irus could produce immunity. d The studies showing these results may have effects in the production of or less. vaccines against other virus disIn a paper presented recently eases, such as influenza and the before the annual meeting of the common cold, from which recovAssociation for Research in Nervdoes not seem to confer lifeous and Mental Disease; Dr. Jonas ery long immunity, Dr. Salk said.

Furthermore, he added, the studies with both polio and influenza vaccines show the limitations usually attributed to vaccines colloquially referred to as killed vaccines (because they are prepart'd with killed viruses) .are not limitations inherent in such vaccines per so, but have to do either with the way such vaccines are constituted, or the way they are used or due to errors of both kinds." To obtain the maximum results with the vaccines, two basic conditions must be met.

Where the orchard has a cover crop, care should be taken to see that there is a thorough baiting so the mice will be killed belore they start girdling the trees. Particular care should be taken to treat fence lines and ditch banks, especially in clean cultivated orchards, as these are sources of infestation. Oi chords that are clean cultivated can be thoroughly disked before winter really sets in so there will be less food for the mice.
