During the past week there has

The Tomato Growers Association held
a meeting last Monday night which
resulted in the appointment OF COM
mittee to look into the tomato mar

rather a tumbling mess during the

George Carter. Orlando Ridout, Jr.,
and G. W. Sears. They went to Bal
timore, and after visiting several
packers they found that the packer
was not going to contract this year.
One packer talked shortage of cans;
others were simply indifferent; but
there is no apparent shortage of cans
as the can manufacturers we're visit

had in any quantities. There We're

Use OF DENTAL FLOSS
SUPPLANTS TOOTHP|CK

Without doubt. the great strides
taken in the science and practice of
dentistry within the past fifty or a
hundred years are responsible for the
great change that has taken place in
that time in what might be called the
etiquette of the toothpick. No one
needs to be told that toothpicks are
absolutely taboo now. Perhaps you
do see little dishes of them occasion
ally in a country hotel dining room,
but if you do see them you pretend
not to. and IL you make any pretenses
at good breeding you do not use them.
Yet so years ago the American man
who did not use toothpicks was more
exceptional than the man who did.
Seventy-five years ago, so far from
being frowned upon, toothpicks were
objects of considerable artistic inter
est. Men, and women, too, carried
their own picks OF gold or ivory. Two
hundred years ago the costly tooth
pick was one OF the indispensable
accessories of the gentleman of
wealth and position. The handle of
his toothpick was sometimes set with
precious stones. He carried it in his
pocket and used IL quite shamelessly
whenever his dental deficiencies and
limitations demanded it.
In one OF the plays of Massinger,
contemporary of Shakespeare, you
may read these lines:
Il have all that's requisite
To the making of a signior; my
spruce ruff.
My hooded cloak. long stocking and
spaned hose.
My case OF toothpicks, and my silver
fork
To convey an olive neatly to my
mouth"
Cheap wooden toothpicks were then
as unheard of as were sets of forks
as part Of dining-room equipment,
snd since persons of quality had ac-
quired the nice habit of eating with a
fork instead of with knives or their
fingers, and had not yet become dain-
ty enough TO think OF dispensing with
The toothpick. they had TO carry these
prerequisites with them.
England esehewed the toothpick be-
fore America did A generation ago,
when toothpicks were still used to
some extent in this country. visiting
Britisher said: I'VE English regard
the use OF the toothpiek as a barber
ISM, a horror, an indeceney. and would
not take one OF those clean wooden
uiils between our lips for the world =
Yet. as this Englishman pointed out,
MS feilow-conntrymen did sometimes.
as covertly as possible. after dinner
relieve some dental discomfort by
means of their fingers, "thrusting
their hands in their mouths, with the
hope that no one has seen them.
The Englishman's conclusion was
that, in spite of his own prejudice
against the toothpick. it was often
preferable 10 this practice.
Now there is but one answer to the
whole question: Frequent enough
visits to the dentist to keep the teeth
free from cavities, through use of the
toothbrush three or four times day.
and the use of dental floss. TO supple

FOR UNITED STATES sESAT0Rs
JOHN WALTER SMITH
OPPOSES KLISGER AND MUDD


A third candidate for Congress
has appeared in the Fifth district.
John X. Riggles, OF Prince
Georges, who announced that he
would enter the Democratic pri-
mary in May and whose papers
were received too late by the
Election Supervisors for This
name to be placed on the ticket,
has filed his papers as an irde-
pendent candidate. Riggles was
defeated two years ago for the
Democratic nomination by Sena-
tor Frank NJ. Duvall, of Anne
Arundel county He says that
he is for Cox and Roosevelt and
seeks the votes of the Democrats.
Capt. Thomas S. Klinger, OF
Prince Georges county, is the
party's nominee, having been
successful in the Primaries over
Walter b. Dorsey. of Anne Arun-
del county, DIR. John w. Klemm,
OF Prince Georges, and former
Senator Frank o. Smith, of Cal
vert. Congressman Sydney +.
Mudd is Republican nominee to
succeed himself. Mr.. Riggles is
particularly outspoken in his SUP
port of Franklin ID. Roosevelt
whom he declares to have been
as Assistant Secretary OF the
Navy, especially friendly to la
Dor. But in this he is no more
enthusiastic than other Demo
Gratis, and many Republicans and
Independents as well, for MIR.
Roosevelt, by his record and his
personality. has become gust
about as popular a figure a. APP
pears in public life today. lIis
speech of acceptance of the Dem
ocratic nomination for Vice
President was masterpiece and
a superb expression of the spirit
OF patriotism that marks him as
a foremost national leader.
1t is to be regretted that Mr.
Riggles has stepped outside Of
the party lines in his desire to go
to Congress from the Fifth dis
trict. The next Congressman
will be either Captain Klinger,
Democrat, who was nominated
by his party, just as Governor
Cox and Mr.. Roosevelt were by
the same party, or Mr. Mudd,
Republican. the nominee of his
party. An independent on the
ticket represents no party at all.

Prevalence OF Hog Cholera

The hogs have been suffering in
some localities from hog cholera.
This is not, however. as bad as 1t was
in the county last year and 1t is
hoped that every farmer will keep a
strong outlook for any symptoms of
the disease. 1t is well for all hog
raisers to keep in the mind the prin-
ciples of hog cholera control which
are printed from time to time in the
columns of this paper. A very in
teresting meeting was held on the
farm OF Mr.. Siebels, near Annapolis,
on Friday. Mr.. Siebels had bad luck
and his hogs got out and brought
home the disease, two hogs dying of
it and the balance of the herd in the
first stages OF the disease. One of
the hogs was cut open and the post
mortem examinations made by DR.. l..
X. Atherton, of the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry. DR.. Atherton then pro-
ceeded to instruct those present in
the uses of the needle or syringe apd
the amounts of doses, giving little
cards telling the precise instructions.
A few of these cards are for distri-
button in the County Agents office.

near Glen Burnie, was visited again
this week by S. B. Shaw, State Hor-
ticulturist. Mr.. Phelps is harvesting
about the finest lot of Carmen peaches
that have been harvested in Anne
Arundel this year. He has less than
one hundred trees in this variety and
expects to harvest over six hundred
baskets. DO peaches pay? Well, just
ask Mr.. Phelps-especially his son.
