New Zealand Cheese
 Competes with Canada

TORONTO. Jan. 26-Canadian dairymen are concerned over the fu- ture of their industry, and steps to save it from a further slump are being considered by provincial and federal agricultural authorities. The chief cause for concern is the in- roads that New Zealanders have made in the British market where, for many years. Canadian cheese held first position.
 J. A. Ruddick, Dominion Dairy Commissioner, admits that the in- dustry is facing a crisis. the like of which has never arisen and M. N. Empey, president of the Eastern Dairymen's Association, has express ed the same view
 Grading of cheese under Federal supervision and some change in the texture of the product prepared for export are among the measures pro- posed.
 Between 1911 and 1921, Federal figures show, exports of cheese to Great Britain declined from 1S1,- S93,724 pounds annually to 133,- 629.340 pounds, while in the same period New Zealand's shipments tC the mother country increased from 49.1S7,3S4 pounds to 160, ,911,4S4 mounds

Dr. Wood in the Wireless Room.

By wireless the "America's surgeon called for detailed history of the aching molar and when he had been given the desired information, he de- cided that an immediate extraction was necessary to give the freight captain relief. The toothachy sailor- man informed Dr. Wood that his chief engineer was prepared to pull the tor menting molar with pair of wire pli- CTS. providing detailed directions were furnished.
 With all the exactness, of which hc is capable, the surgeon of the Amer ica" sent specific directions tor the extraction of the molar.. Back came a message from the freighter stating that the directions were fully under stood and that the volunteer dentist, armed with the wire pliers, was about. to execute the job.
 Half an hour later the following message was shot through the void to the "America":
 "Tooth successfully yanked. Your generous assistance warmly apprc- ciated. God bless you"
 And, so having participated in the making of wireless history, pr. Wood returned to his cabin to complete his interrupted sleep. Since the perfection of wireless, ship surgeons are being called upon more and more to give aid to small vessels that carry no doctor. Pulling a tooth by wireless. however, is test that had never be- fore been attempted.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-The latest accomplishment of wireless and one that approximates miracle-work, is the pulling of tooth across 500 miles of heaving seas. Dr. A. l.. Wood. surgeon of the steamship "America' of the United States Lines, is credited with performing the feat that will go down through the years as radio history. The story of the tooth-pulling by wireless became known upon the recent arrival in port of the America"
 It was late in the night and the "America," in mid-ocean, was rhyth- mically throbbing her way to the port of New York, when Dr. Wood, who had long since retired to his cabin was aroused by a pounding on the door. The surgeon arose to be greet cd by Wireless Operator Black with 2 radiogram, one of the strangest Dr: Wood in his many years at sea had ! The message was fr6m the captain of small freight vessel and stated that he had been suffering for five days with a toothache and that he desired aid in having the offending molar effectively yanked. Although a surgeon and not dentist, Dr. Wood decided that it was an emergency in which he must not be found wanting. He would have to live up to the best traditions of the sea which require the giving of prompt assistance when- ever it be called for.

NOW is TIME
TO BATTLE
MOSQUITO

AYoW il the time to battle the
house mosquito. Clean up
those out-of-the way cor
ners back Of the garage and
burn the trash. Do away with
standing water.
Someone has cleverly said that
you may know the house mos
quito by the fact that it has no
distinguishing marks, writes c.
NJ. Weed, in Nature Magazine.
Its general color is light brown,
and, for a mosquito, it is Of
medium size. AS with the other
species, it is only the females
which have mouth parts devel-
oped for biting.
Like that Of most living things,
the life history Of the house mos
quito shows marvellous adapta-
tons to the conditions under
which 1t grows. It can develop
in water in almost any situation
and requires only a week or two
to go through the four stages
Of its existence.
The mother mosquitoes pass
the winter in a great variety OF
shelter. They are very common
in cellars and hollow trees, and
logs, beneath loose bark. and IN
many other similar places. When
the warm spring weather comes
they sally forth to deposit their
small cylindrical eggs in boat"
shaped masses on the surface
Of quiet pools or ponds, rain
water barrels, watering troughs'
stagnant bitches.
It seems to be pretty well es'
tablished that the house mos
quito commonly flies only q very
short distance from the place
where 1t has developed II mos
Quitoes are abundant In a house.
1t Is safe to assume that there
Is water in which they are breed
ing within q few hundred Feet.
Millions Of the little pests may
readily. be produced in barrel
Of rain water or even an uncov.
cred bucket. Some Of the most
prolific breeding places are empty
tin cans which have carelesSiy
been left lying on the grouno III
positions in which they are 1llleu
in rainy weather.
