TOOTH CONDITION CHARTS.

For six years the home Office en-
ployes Of the Metropolitan Life In
surance company have had their
teeth cleaned and polished twice a
year by direction OF the company
and at it's expense. A year ago over
5000 such treatments had been
given. When the teeth are cleaned
and polished the employe Is given
a chart showing the condition OF
each tooth and advised as to any
treatment needed. Whatever the
practice now Is, in the beginning
the treatment given by the company
dentists consisted In this cleaning,
polishing. examining and advising.
Such treatments, OF course, are OF
some service in preventing decay.
Doubtless when the teeth are made
clean and smooth the chance of de-
cay Is decreased somewhat. Doubt
less also a person whose teeth are
cleaned and polished twice a year
Is not likely to let them rot out pre-
maturely, or less likely to do so than
he otherwise would be.
But the main gain from the clean
ing and polishing service is in the
prevention of pyorrhoea, and pyorr-
hoea Is the great tooth eraser in
America. With us the teeth are lost
because they drop out. Were it not
for pyorrhoea most of us who reach
adult life with good teeth would die
still with good teeth. The cleaner
and polisher removes tartar and
cleans around the necks. A day or
two after his job has been done the
gums are not red and boggy, but
are firm and fit tight.
There are good many employees
who began the policy Of having
their teeth Systematically cleaned as
far back as 1915. DR.. Hyatt, re-
porting the results for 1920 in the
American Journal Of Public Health,
says 81 per cent Of those starting
in 1915 had, at the time of his re-
port. mouths that were clean, gums
that were tight, and teeth that were
free of tartar: 25 per cent had con-
siderable tartar and inflammation
of the gums, and 4S per cent were
in between. OF those who started
in 1913, only 10 per cent, at the
time of his report, had teeth free
from tartar and gums that were
tight. In other words, the habit
grows in them. Theey learn to like
having a clean mouth. They have
a new standard Of mouth cleanli-
ness.
1t is not easy to keep the necks
of the teeth clean and the gums
tight even when the teeth are poll
ished twice a year and brushed ev-
cry day. Tartar will accumulate
around the roots and necks of the
back molars and the tongue side
of the lower central incisors unless
these teeth are individually cleaned
almost daily.
1t would be interesting to know
how much rheumatism and neuritis
these few thousand employees have.
Do they stay away from work en- ac-
count Of rheumatism and neuralgia
pains less often than do employees of
the same age engaged in similar oc-
cupations whose teeth are not freed
from tartar twice a year?

Revival of Bicycle.
From the Baltimore American.

At the fifth annual convention of
the Cycle Trades Of America at At
lantic City it was declared by the
president, H. M. Huffman Of Dayton,
O.. that the bicycle has come back
with such emphasis that in the next
10 years more bicycles will be sold
annually than when the fad for rid
ing them was at it's height. He
says at first it was a plaything and
when the public tired of it was
thrown aside, but it never gave up,
and after an uphill fight has now
been restored to popularity as a
business necessity in competition
with the bus and the street car. Its
rejuvenation, he asserts, Is without
precedent in the history of American
industry.
The present generation can re-
member when bicycle riding
amounted to craze and men,
women and children rode wheels
with equal ardor. The bicycle be-
came society fad and not to be
an accomplished cyclist was to COM
init a social sin. Then the craze
wore itself out, and TO see q woman
now on wheel is almost as much
of a curiosity as it was in the day
when the old high "ordinary" was
first succeeded by the low wheel.
But there is no doubt that the BIZ
cycle was instrumental in raising
the standard Of health, particularly
for women. and that it accomplished
much in helping to develop their
present liberty in allowing them an
open-air sport on equality with men.
If the popularity Of the bicycle re-
turns In moderate degree as a busi-
ness aid and a pleasure to those
who know how to use it. the public
will be the gamers. Only the risk
of the motor car on street and road
will render it's use liable to more
danger than in the old days, when
1t had no such powerful competition
for the right of way. Still, 1t will
be interesting to watch how the rev.
olutions Of progress have sympathet-
ically brought back the old and
reliable wheel"

Pennsylvania Primary Plan.

The old Keystone state is bothered about
how to overcome one of the objections urged
against the primary ballot, the difficulty of
fairly arranging the names of candidates on
the ballot. Disadvantages of the alphabetical
order plan are so obvious that it is abandoned
in advance Aaron Aables has a flying start
over Zymotic Zbysko and this will not be per-
mitted to handicap the latter if it can be
avoided. The scheme just adopted at Harris
burg is to decide the place on the ballot by lot.
Thus will some semblance of fairness be at
tanned, and perhaps justice be DONE We might
suggest that the Nebraska plan has some re-
deeming features, one of which is that every
body fares alike. Names are listed in the order
filings are made; then, when the ballot is
printed, rotation begins, so that in time the
name Of each candidate appears at the top of
the list on certain number of ballots, and in
turn occupies every place from top to bottom.
This makes a lot Of trouble for the printer and
costs a good deal more than if single arrange
ment were adhered to, but it does away with
any charge that one or another of the cand-
dates is favored Practical experience has
shown, too, that voters will pursue favored
candidate all over the ticket in order to get a
chance to put an "X' in the square opposite his
name. Each primary election shows this to be
the case. Pennsylvania might try the plan,
which has worked out fairly we'll in Nebraska.

changed in that character. If the tree
is to bear a crop each year, approx
mately one-half of its spurs must be
allowed to bear fruit during season
and the other half must rest and pro-
duce fruit buds for the following sea-
SON. Thinning all fruit from part of
the spurs forces those spurs to rest and
develop fruit buds for next years crop
in addition to giving a better sized,
cleaner crop for this year.
The "June drop" of apples is about
completed at the present time and
thinning should be carried on as rap
idly as possible. Worm stung and
aphis deformed apples should be re-
moved first; then all clusters should
be broken so that not more than one
apple remains on any spur. Next,
some spurs should have all apples re-
moved so that the remaining apples
are spaced at average six inch inter-
walls. This interval will vary with the
variety, larger varieties needing great
er interval and small varieties lesser
intervals. The interval and number of
fruits allowed to remain on a branch
will also be governed by the load
which the particular branch is able to
carry. Usually fruit borne at the
tips of branches should be removed
as much of this is wind whipped and
is of inferior grade.
Wormy Trimmings should be cut open
and the worm crushed before dropping
to the ground or the thinner should
carry picking bag or other receptacle
to hold them for later destruction.
Thinning shears should be used and
thinners should always use ladders to
reach parts of the tree out of reach
from the ground. -...... s..

remove from fire; when cool, add remainder of
