average and above in regard to
teeth. Only four out of the four
higher grades have defective teeth,
each one has tooth brush and the
principal gave each sample of
tooth paste. We are going to oil the
floors next week. Matte Ledford
has fever. She is the only one who
has been absent on account of sick
ness during the term.
The Care of the Mouth.
The first to do is to keep the teeth
clean.
/ am going to ask how many Of
you have been sick the past year?
Well, you don't want to be sick, do
you, well keep your teeth clean. Are
you getting behind in your work so
that all the other boys and girls get
ahead of you? Suppose show you
that dirty teeth often cause people
to be sick, and so prove to you that
if you keep your teeth clean you
won't be sick nearly so much as you
will be if you. don't take care Of
those teeth!
You know we have two sets of
teeth, the upper and the lower.
These two sets Of teeth are built to
fit each other perfectly, and they
come together in the mouth with a
grinding motion to make a sort of
mill. The purpose of that mill is
to grind up our food into tiny pie
ces so it may be swallowed. When
we are chewing up this food little
pieces of it get broken off and stick
between the teeth all the way round.
Those little pieces of food may stay
there for hours and even days if
they are not carefully cleaned away,
and there are holes in the teeth, those
holes get filled with the bits of food
that sometimes stay in the mouth ev-
en- weeks.
Eat slow and chew your food thor
oughly!
From ESQ to 400 pounds pressure
is brought upon the food in chewing,
thereby forcing bits of food into the
spaces between the teeth, and if
allowed to remain there several
hours these butts of food begin to de-
cay.
Decaying materials are poisonous.
If you ate decayed meats or veg

RAIL LABOR BOARD
. To HEAR ARGUMENT
ON PAY THURSDAY

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-The United
States railroad labor board today an
nounced that a hearing would be held
Thursday on the question of whether
it will consider the petition presented
by the railroad managers asking for
abrogation of the national agreements
and reduction in wages of unskilled
laborers.
The board will at that time hear
the unions side of the story. The
railroad managers claims were pre-
scented by Vice President Atterbury,
Of the Pennsylvania system, on Mon
day in asking the ruling.
Pending action by the railroad Ia
Dor board, kilograms were sent by
the brotherhood representatives to
President Wilson and Senator Miles
Poindexter declaring the roads
could save more than $300,000,000
Of waste if the management did a
better job in operating the lines,
and calling for congressional in
vestigation (which we believe will
result in disclosure that the repre-
sentatives of the carriers are de-
ceptive."
Suggestions by Judge r. Y. Bur-
ton. chairman of the board, and
Henry Hunt, another member, that
the employers and employees should
confer on their differences were neg
atived by NJ Atterblry, who declar-
ed the railroad executives feel no
good could come of such a confer
ence.
1.-THE situation is sc critical that
even few days delay may result
in flooding your goard with petitions
for reduction of wages" Mr.. At
terbury said. 1.-THE board has a mass
of information. it can act if it will
eff the national agreements I'M
der which the employees operated
during federal control were set aside,
Mr.. Atterbury said, no wage reduc-
tions would be made for at least
ninety days, until the railroads had
tried out other economies not now
permitted under the working agree
ments.

Live Stock Held on
Farms in Georgia

ATLANTA, Ca, Feb. There were
1888, 600 domestic animals on Georgia farms
January l this year, with a total farm
valuatio of $40, 445, 800, as against $685.
gate valuation of $201, $40, O0O a decrease
of slightly less than per cent i'll numbers
and of 80 per cent in value. This is the
announcement made today by John 5.
United States Bureau of Crop Estimates
cooperating with the Georgia Department
of Agriculture, division of agricultural sta
tistics. He bases his conclusions on hun
dreds of reports received by him recently
direct from the farmers of the state. All
kinds of farm animals, excepting milk cows,
show falling off in numbers. The increase
in milk cows is about per cent, and he
places the number of dairy cattle at about
1900 head. But there are 80, 1877 farms
in Georgia, it is plain to see, he says, that
there are not near enough milk cows i'll the
state TO supply the urban population, and
that the farmers should get busy and in
crease the number of dairy cattle. He fig
ures out that if pro rata distribution of
the cows were made, it would give to each
farm only COW and q half.
Sheep is the really distressing feature of
his report, he points out. According to Mr..
Dennee the number continues to decline
steadily and at present there are only
119, 900, compared with 125, 600 year
ago and 135, 900 two years ago. This splen-
did industry is fading out in Georgia, he
says, due in part to the lack of permanent
pastures, the settling up of the range coun.
ties, vagrant dogs, and the low prices of
wool and mutton. Every farm should grow
some sheep, he believes. They are not cost
ly 10 maintain, and they serve admirably
to keep the weeds dewn and the farm reve-
nues up.
The subjoiaed ia buatiuD arranged by the
statist shows the various classes OF farm
animals, total numbers, per head value, and
aggregate value on January 1, 1921, as COM
pared with same date in 1920 and 1919:

CONCERNS RESUME

PITTSBURG. Pa, Feb. MANY
independent steel manufacturing con-
Germs in the Pittsburg district today
increased operations on what eXecu-
tives were united in saying was a
"cautiously conservative" basis, aft
err about six weeks in which opera
tions have been entirely suspended
or greatly curtailed. 1t was predict
ed that within a few days operation
would be about 40 per cent of ca
pacity with prospects of increased
activity if conditions warranted.
Of the SIS independent blast fur
naces from which reports were re-
ceived by steel authorities here, 81
were in operation. while mills which
increased operations today were:
Cambria Steel company, Johnstown,
Pa; Pittsburg Steel company, Mones-
sen, Pa; Crucible Steel Company of
America, Pitsburg; Blaw-Knox COM
pany, Pittsburg; Weirton Steel COM
pany, Weirton, w. Va; Label Iron
Works. of the Wheeling Steel cor
poration. Wheeling w. Va.
Some of the business which
brought about resumption was for
the export trade, one order being
for $1,0OO,OOO for .teel towers to be
used in q wireless installation at
Osaka, Japan.
From points outside the immediate
Pittsburg district came similar re-
ports IF increased operation today,
including the Youngstown Sheet and
Tube company, at Youngstown, O.;
Berger Manufacturing company, and
Stark Rolling Mills company, at
Canton, and Trumbull Steel company,
