OLD TIME DENTISTRY,
Hueer Instruments In Harvard Dem
tai Schools Collection.

tai Schools Collection.
Like many other Of the new" pro-
fessions, dentistry is q very old one.
1t is known that 400 years before the
beginning Of the Christian era Egyp-
tan dentists filled teeth with gold, but
no trace Of their methods of doing their
work has ever been found. Aescula-
Plus, the patron of physicians, was the
first famous dentist in Roman history,
and the old Romans used a toothpick
very much like the little wooden one
that is made today. The Arabians
ages ago produced dentifrice, but it
soon seemed to be very generally used.
The story Of dentistry Is told in the
instruments it has employed. As they
are known today they had their be-
ginning in the sixteenth century, but
their evolution has been slow. In the
Harvard Dental school in Boston there
Is collection of instruments used by
dentists in the first half of the last cen
fury. One Of the formidable tools it
includes is what was CALLED a key,
doubtless from its peculiar shape,
which was used for extracting teeth,
the process being to slowly and pain
fully twist and pry the offending molar
out Of its place. In order that no mis-
lake should be made the dentist began
operations by hammering and prod
ding one tooth after another with a
sort Of bludgeon until he had satisfied
himself-not to mention the tortured
patient-that he had found the most
sensitive one and therefore the most
likely candidate for extraction.
The grandfathers OF the delicate steel
tools that lie in rows on the modern
dentists table were small in number,
but large in awfulness. There are in
the Harvard collection chiseIs and NAL
lets, rude forceps for removing the
teeth, miniature crowbars used to re-
pair cavities for filling, files for sharp
sning the cutting and grinding sur
faces Of teeth and one particularly
horrid instrument, known as the pei
lean, with which teeth were Gifted"
How rapidly and recently dentistry
has become one Of the important
sciences appears In the fact that in
the middle of the last century black
smiths We're doing their best-or worst
to relieve the victims Of the tooth
ache. while today institutions like the
Harvard Dental school attract stu
dents from all over the world. Be-
sides, while 1t was sure torture to go
10 the dentist in the SO called "good
old days." such visit now Is COM
paratively comfortable, so far has the
profession gone In the direction Of per-
forming Its operations without caus-
ing pain.

Director Charles D. Walcott
of the United States geological
survey states that the govern
ment owns about 100000, 600
acres of vacant land. Of this
land the greater part is arid.
About 6, 500, 900 acres are irrigat-
ed. There is water available
for many more. Most of this
land already irrigated is in Colo
RADIO and California. Much of
the land will cost S25 or $50
when provided with water. 1t
is estimated that if $500, 900, 900
were expended during the next
forty years in a large and con-
sistent scheme of irrigation, the
lands improved would be worth
by the end of that period not less
than 81, 900, 100000 Uncle Sam
can provide us all a farm, but it
will be more expensive than
those free homesteads of 100
years ago. But the new farms
are insured against drought =
and that is a pretty good thing.

California, which is being boom
ed and successfully doomed, for
it's fine winter climate.
The truth is that our fall and
winter weather cannot be dupli-
Gated. As to the summers, they
are no hotter than certain Sec
lions of California, and we have
the advantage of the sunshine
without the fogs and damp at
mosphere of the coast. Our eli
mate is one of our most valuable
assets. What is needed is to
give = the widest publicity not
only to our great agricultural
and mineral resources, but as
widely and extensively and per-
sistently give the lie to our ac-
quired but undeserved reputation
which ranks Yuma as a little
warmer than hell itself. 1t may
be funny to some people, but it
is certainly a detriment to the
growth of the town and commu-
nifty, and it is about time that
the erroneous Impressions about
Yuma climate should be combat
ted seriously and vigorously.
If we could induce any great
number of people to come here
and see for themselves these
false ideas would be rapidly re-
placed by true ones. That will
be the work to be accomplished
through the efforts Of the Cham
Der of Commerce. With the
substantial help of the Southern
Pacific railroad company it can
be done.

Yuma County a Good Field for
Public Examiner Foster.

The Phoenix Enterprise says
that Territorial Public Examin-
err Foster ''stirred things
up considerably" during his re-
cent visit to Globe. It might be
good idea for Mr.. Foster to
come to Yuma and "stir things
up considerably" Judging by
that portion of the last grand
jury's report referring to the
"loose way" of accounting for
expenditures on roads in district
No. L. This portion Of the re-
port is as follows:
We are unable from the records on
file in the Office of the Board of Super
visors to determine the total amount
expended in Road District No. /, DUR
ing 1904, the report of the road over
seer for the third quarter not being on
file. We are also unable to find any
record of where in the district the
money was expended. We find. how
ever, that during the three quarters
for which reports are on file, that
$346O37 were expended. The road
overseer states that 5000 would cover
the work done in the district outside
1o 1e 70
ward Mr.. Cash Smiths residence and
from the same point to Mr.. Thomas's
place; there remains $2860.37 (exelu-
sive of what may have been expended
during the third quarter, for which no
report is on file,) paid out on these two
roads, which. combined, do not exceed
one mile in length. This road we TN
derstand was to have been built by
subscription, with the exception that
the county agreed to furnish prisoners
for labor and to guard them.
In view of the above facts we respect
fully recommend that the Board of
Supervisors be directed to require
road overseerS to state with due exact
ness where in their districts money is
spent and for what specific purposes.
We further recommend that proper
payroll book be provided for each
overseer, wherein he can conveniently
show the party performing the labor,
its character and where and on what
performed. This would make it posi-
ular piece of road with sufficient exact
ness to show the taxpayer that his
money was being properly spent, which
is utterly impossible at this time.

Yuma needs a great many
things to make it a better town,
and one of the most important is
unity Of spirit and action. There
is entirely too much petty spite
and jealousy among some of the
people of the town, and there is
entirely too much effort on the
part Of some to revenge them
selves for fancied wrongs. Kill
this spirit and the town will
thrive better.
