The teeth decay in those places that
are not kept clean. To keep the teeth
clean various mouth washes, tooth
passes, powders and brushes have
been devised.
Many Of these agents have some
beneficial effects. while others do 10
good, and possibly harm. But we
must concede the fact that up to the
present time these agents are as ef-
fectiye as any we know to keep the
mouth comparatively clean and to
prevent accumUlations in and around,
and especially between the teeth.
While 1t is a recognized fact that
the indiscriminate use Of powders and
mouth washes is not the best for the
teeth and gums, still the use OF tooth
brushes, together with suitable pow
ders and washes is OF great impor-
lance. But the kind of medicinal
agent that each individual should use
should be left to some one who is
competent to instruct the patient As
to the particular means Of applying
this agent advice should also be given,
as the teeth and gums in individuals
differ practically as much as their hair
and eyes.
The wash VIII pass between the
teeth, or at least it should pass be-
tween most of the teeth, and in this
way take out the greatest portion of
food and other foreign matter that
may collect there. This collection diff
fers in different individuals, depend
ing upon their relation to each other.
The different kinds of gum dis
ease demand different mouth washes
and often a patient Will condemn a
good mouth wash which fails TO effect
q cure when the trouble Is that it is
not adapted to that diseased condition.
In diseases Of the gum, particularly IN
pyorrhea, it is well TO massage the
gum. This is a splendid means OF
stimulating the tissue and causing IL
TO creep forward in those places
where it normally belongs. Before we
attempt gum massage we should see
that the teeth are as clean as possible
and that all foreign matter on the
roots is removed. Gum tissue viii not
adhere or lie IN close ada agitation to
the roots Of teeth on which there is
tartar or an accumulation OF food
debris.
The best way 20 massage the gum is
with the thumb and fingers, rubbing
the gum toward the cutting edge Of
the tooth. There are few people that
normally have clean mouths and when
one has learned TO keep ones teeth
and gums IN a healthy condition moth
ing can induce him 70 return TO tAe
old habits of uncleanliress.

Unless one IS taught how to prep
erIy use the tooth brush, he is almost
certain TO use It the wrong way, be
cause it IS the easiest way. The usual
method has been TO brush cross wise
of the teeth and If the food does not
readily come out, 70 brush the hard
er. This is the wrong way, for IN so
doing you not only fail to do the
work well, but also this movement
tends to force the gum away from
the necks of the teeth. thereby leav-
ing the roots exposed. The gum which
lies between the teeth has q very
valuable use in protecting the teeth,
and in preventing decayed food from
lying between them. It is safe to
say that in mouths where the gum
has been forced away by improper
brushing, or otherwise, the teeth are
much more apt to decay.
The proper method of brushing the
teeth is with an up and down or
rotary motion. In this movement. the
bristles of the brush should strike
the gum above the upper teeth. and
in passing down dislodge the par
ticles Of food between the teeth. With
the lower teeth reverse the motion;
that Is, the brush should first touch
the gum below the teeth and then
be carried UP. In other words, the
stroke should always be made to-
wards the cutting edge of the tooth,
thus forcing the gums on the teeth.
The friction of the brush on the
gums is very beneficial to them, but
often this wifi cause bleeding. In
such cases II cold water IS applied
with the brush until the bleeding
stops, and If this be done every day,
the gums VIII begin to harden, and
the trouble will cease. If there should
be any gum disease, or any deposits
under the gum, such as tartar, It will
be best to have the gums treated and
the foreign matter removed
Parents should be careful to teach
the child the use Of the tooth brush
at a very early age, and the habit
once formed at that period is bound
10 be continued. When II is known
that decay will never attack a per
fectly clean tooth, we realize the i'm
portance OF the tooth brush. We can
not hope, even with the brush, to
have perfect cleanliness, but we
know that good thorough brushing
is wonderful help.
If the teeth are brushed after each
meal and Just before going TO bed.
II usually VIII be sufficient. The
most important time ts at bed time.
for then the fluids CT the mouth are
not flowing, and the food that lies
between the teeth invites decay.
The time when teeth decay the
worst is in childhood. and II parents
only knew the responsibility that was
theirs 10 see that the teeth Of their
children were kept clean, there
would be fewer .peopls going through

SETTLERS REACH AGREEMENT.
VIII Organize an Association to Finish
Work on Project.

Hammett, Nov. 1S.-At a meeting
held here today and attended by over
40 owners of water rights, represent
ing practically the entire membership
of the Medbury Valley Water Users
association, the conclusion as reached
by the Kings Hill people in their
agreement at Boise on November II
were unanimously adopted Not a
dissenting vote was registered when
the proposition was put to ballot
The entire agreement as reached
by the Kings Hill people and adopted
today by the settlers on the Medbury
tract provides that the financial inter-
ests in the Kings Hill project will
furnish funds to put the ditch in condi-
ton to deliver water along the entire
tract for next seasons crop, for which
they are to be reimbursed with inter-
est or by district bonds, these bonds to
be sold at full face value, every inter-
est involved being fully reimbursed,
excepting c. H. Hammett, who,
through the failure of the original
companies, loses nearly $25O,O0O.
The agreement also provides that
the settlers on the extension are to
have their bonds returned in case they
can lind no contractor to construct the
big reservoirs which, it is claimed,
were promised by the companies in
their original contracts and in consid-
Grafton of the surrender of their wa
ter rights in the original ditch the
settlers on the extension are relieved
OF the necessity of issuing $4,000
worth of bonds.
Additional data from the agreement
as reached is to the effect that the to-
tai value of the district bonds issued
must be $1,450,000 The bondholders
have agreed to set aside $250,OOO for
the construction of pumping station
and for its maintenance during the
coming year. Bonds are to be issued
upon the first of next July, covering
the amount due on water contracts,
interest since April 1, 1912, mainten-
ance assessment $65 per acre minus
$4,000 for district No. /, which en-
braces the extension, and the same
amount plus $4,000 for district No. q,
which is the project proper.
At the meeting held today a commit
tee was authorized to engage a civil
engineer and an attorney and to pro-
coed at once with the detail work look
ing towards the organization and crea-
ton of an irrigation district in the

people proceed with their pumping en-

Resultant from todays session, at

the farmers look for increased pros

the assurance now at hand it is evil
dent that this section is entering upon
an era OF development and productive

of today's session which brought forth

announced that active operations
would begin Monday morning. 1t is

BRUNfAU RUMORS.
Early Development Hinges On Report
of Engineers.

The irrigation of the great Bruneau
country has been agitated for several
years and each year seems to bring
the realization of the hope nearer than
before. The past few weeks Mr.. Frank
Bull, who is the. financial hacker of
the proposition, has been in Idaho
looking over the situation again. He is
reported to have said that its early de-
velopment hinges largely upon the re-
ports of engineers sent out by New
York capitalists few months ago. If
these engineers give a favorable re-
port there will be something doing in
Idaho for some years along the line of
new irrigation enterprises, for this
project will require some five or six
years for its completion and will eat
up the big end Of twenty-five million
dollars.-Gooding Leader.
