neutron, while the quantum hypothesis

The whole thing is somewhat vague
at present, but we are continuing our
experiments. Whether one neutron is
a protoD and electron combined is not

whether this is quantum radiation or

Baby teeth don't matter" most

manents come in, and then we'll
teach Johnny how to take care Of
them"
They are wrong.
Baby teeth are extremely i'm
portant factors In the health of
the child today and throughout his
life. They are needed to chew
food properly so that the child's
delicate stomach will not be over
burdened. They aid in the proper
development of the jaw and facial
expression. They prevent pain and
promote health.
Bad teeth, even If not perma-
nent, often abscess and cause in
fections to get into the blood,
sometimes resulting in heart, kid
new or lung trouble, or rheuma-
tism. Unclean teeth are an ideal
breeding place for many germs,
especially those causing pneumo-
nit. measles, scarlet fever and
diphetheria.
Healthy baby teeth are inval-
liable OF the mouth. If they are
allowed to decay, they often come
into contact with newly arrived
permanent teeth, and pass the de-
cay along.
Equally important to the future
of child's dental health are the
four big back molars, the first per-
manent teeth in the mouth. They
hold the jaws in shape while the
rest Of the permanent teeth are
coming in. They are called the
keystones of the mouth. To lose
one of them is tragedy, because 1t
throws the child's entire mouth
out of position. other teeth come
in unevenly. They change the
whole appearance of the child's
face. Since they do not fit together
properly. decay is encouraged.

VIEWS ON FARMERS STRIKE

Picketing in Polk county con-
tinued\ with renewed vigor early to-
day as local milk producers and
holiday association leaders failed
for the second time to agree on
new milk rtices Sunday.
AS the strike" entered its fourth
week, it was generally admitted
that however little may result from
it in material benefit to the farmer
at this time, it has served more
dramatically to call to the atten-
ton of the American people the
farmers plight than any step prev
iously taken by the agriculturist.
With the exception of few is
olated cases of increased milk prices
milk shipments of course were
attacked first because all distribut-
ing depots as well as ultimate de-
livery points have reserves of most
other farm products in Geld storage
there has been no appreciable eff
feet on prices either to the farmer
or consumer as a result of the
strike. In fact. while there has
been some Slight falling off in de-
liveries of both cattle and hogs at
the Sioux City and Omaha markets,
the prices for these products have
scaled off rather than upward since
the strike Atarted.
