MOVEMENT TO
SETTLE FARMS
Plans to Divert Immigrants
from Cities and Industrial
Centers.
tey The Associates Press).

WASHINGTON, March 14.-PPlans
TO divert immigrants from the cities
and Industrial centers and to coordi-
nate agencies of the departments of
the interior, agriculture and labor to
place the newcomers on small farms
were announced today by w. w. Hus-
band commissioner general Of immi-
grafton. Mr.. Husband, who succeeds
Anthony j. Caminetti, was sworn in
today.
The new commissioner general made
public a plan approved by Secretary of
Labor Davis, which he declared would
help solve the immigration problem
and at the same time correct the eco
nomic situation arising from the flow
OF population to the larger cities.
There is land enough in this coun-
try for millions of small FARMS" Com
missioner Husband said. our plan
is not to replace American farmers
with foreigners but to create new
farms and make new farmers, thereby
increasing the resources of the nation.
Our immigration problem Is largely a
problem of distribution of the immi-
grants.
THE majority OF our immigrants
are peasants and essentially farmers.
"Our plan is not TO scatter these
people out in sparsely settled sections
and put them up against the problems
that our pioneers went through. Meth
er do we plan to start foreign settle
ment communities in the strict sense
of the term, but we plan to group
them. somewhat on the European viii
lage plan, and offer them the advan-
tages of expert agricultural and home
demonstration instruction through the
department OF agriculture, and to aid
them in taking advantage Of the farm
loan act.
by handling the immigration prob
lem in this manner we will do away
with the red" danger. The farms,
with the advantages we can offer, will
be the best sort OF an Americanization
school"

BAD BREATH
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets Get

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the SUBJ

bowels and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards OhTe
Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated
tablets are taken for bad breath by
all who know them.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets act gen.

stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calorael does without any
OF the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
gripping cathartics are derived from
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets without
gripping, painor any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years Of prac-
tee among patients afflicted With
bowel and liver complaint, with the
attendant bad breath.

Discussed by Civics Committee.

The civics committee of the chamber
of commerce yesterday discussed with

plans for an intensive cleanup week
campaign to be observed from March
II to March &c. The idea of the week
is the same as that of similar cam
paigns in previous years and every
householder will be expected to make
special effort to place his premises
IN attractive and sanitary condition.
Mayor Sanders will issue a procla-
nation and the civics committee, to-
gether with DR.. Spencer, will direct
the publicity and aid activity by MAX
ing inspections and providing teams
and equipment. An honor roll of the
best kept premises in the city will be
made and published in the newspapers.
1t is expected that the civic pride Of
the citizens will make this years
cleanup campaign the most effective
ever held.

GRITTY TOOTH
PASTES WEAR
HOLES IN TEETH
Also Make Gums Loose and Invite
Germ Infection.

More and more users of tooth pastes
and powders are turning from them,
as they are experiencing the danger
of such preparations. Try this test
take little tooth paste or powder on
the finger or handkerchief and rub
hard on your mahogany table. See
how it scratches. In the same way,
tooth pastes and powders, which both
contain abrasive grit, whiten the teeth
by wearing away the enamel, natures
protector This leaves tiny holes in
the teeth for decay germs to attack.
Pastes and powders also cause torn
gums, and these are another principal
lodging place for germs. No germs
can enter unless the skin is broken.
That is why many oral scientists say
that pyorrhea and most mouth trou-
bles are caused by tooth pastes and
powders. And this seems true, for
whoever heard of pyorrhea a few years
ago before these gritty dentifrices be-
came so generally used?
The only safe, sure way to care for
the teeth is to use a really antiseptiC
mouth wash. Now at last a wonderful
formula has been worked out that is
pleasant to use, yet kills all germs in
the mouth. This preparation is called
Steroline, and it is unequalled because
it is based on the famous officially
approved DobelIs Solution, which was
o lfe-saver everywhere during the
war. Dobell's Solution has enjoyed
the approval of every doctors conven-
ton for fifty years. Yet it can only
be used with general satisfaction in
Steroline-because Steroline contains
other splendid ingredients which
soothe, heal and allay inflammation,
cleanse but cannot scratch, and are
good for bleeding gums.
If you are using tooth pastes or
powders remember they will wear
teeth and tear gums, but can never
reach more than 60 per cent of the
surface. The other 40 per cent is never
cleaned. Steroline, being a liquid, goes
between the teeth and reaches all .,he
hidden spots. Brush your teeth with
it as often as you like. You will neAr
change, because Steroline gives tHS
results and safety you've always looh-
ed for. Get a bottle today! The Crys-
tai Pharmacy recommends and guar
antees Steroline. Large bottle soc.
