WARNED BY THE DENTIST.
Dire Results of Biting Thread Worth
Taking to Heart.

"I'll never be able to do much for
you," said the dentist, till you quit
biting your thread"
Dear me-" said the woman, that re-
minds me of the days when grand
mother threatened me with q whip
ping II didn't quit biting my nails"
lone habit is just as reprehensible
as the other" said the dentist. You
ought to be able to see you own teeth,
then you would realize that you de-
serve good scolding. Tho edges are
az uneven as a saw. Now, IL you were
a professional dressmaker, or fac.
tory hand you would know better than
to bite your thread. They seldom do
it. They have learned the art of snip.
ping 1t off with the scissors without
loss of time, and don't have to NAL.
treat their teeth It is you women who
do good deal of sewing in a non.
professional capacity who think the
quickest way to break a thread is to
bite 1t. That may be good for the
progress OF the work, but 1t Is bad fer
the teeth.
Fortunately, you can't bite with the
whole mouthful of teeth at the same
time, so most of them escape. Those
+, that really do the work are the incis
ors on either side. They are in ter
ribly bad fix. The enamel is worn on
the ridges and corrugations are ar
eighth of an inch deep, and"
"oh, don't tell me anything more,
cried the woman You Brighten me
Just fix up my shattered teeth tn,
best you know how. and promis
! never to bite another thread"

There is some talk Of grasshoppers
doing damage next year, because in
places in North Dakota they are num-
erous this season.
Burn off the stuble where they are
this fall. and plow every acre you can
before snow flies That is the best
remedy known, and i generally fol.
lowed will be found effective.
Many papers over the state write to
inquire about rust, and what can be
done to prevent it. =, "
The reader will remember that the
rust that does damage, the black
wheat rust, strike the hardest late in
the season.
There is no way of preventing 1t
save to sow early, and get the crop
out aof the way before it becomes a
menace. B 49, 1E5 !
We cannot tell when rust will prove
serious and when it will not The best
precaution is therefore to SOW early.
Because of this fact alone, winter
wheat, if we can successfully raise it,
will be a great benefit eft to North pako-
