PLATTSMOUTH
DENTAL SOCIETY
CHAPTER XXVIII
Young Jack Reynolds felt quite
proud of himself as he stepped down
from the dentist's chair. He had just
had his front baby teeth extracted
and he had undergone the operation
like a true man.
"Did it hurt. Jack?" asked his
father as he admiringly patted his
son oil the back.
"No, sir," replied the boy, "only
my lip feels kinda funny."
Dr. Young laughed. "Your lip feels
funny because of the anaesthetic
which I gave you before we pulled
the teeth."
"What's an anaesthetic?" asked
Jack.
"An anaesthetic," explained the
dentist, "is a certain kind of medi
cine which I put in your gums to
prevent pain. The effects of that
medicine will wear away in a short
time and your lips will no longer
feel funny or numb."
"Why is it necessary, doctor, to
give a child an anaesthetic before
extracting a baby tooth?" asked
Jack's father.
"Would you like to have one of
your teeth extracted without an
anaesthetic?" parried the dentist.
"Can't say that I would." replied
Mr. Reynolds, "but the cases are not
the same. Permanent teeth have
long roots embedded in the bone.
There were scarcely any roots left
on Jack's baby teeth."
"That's very true," said the den
tist. "However, the roots of Jack's
teeth were not completely resorbed."
Picking up the extracted teeth, he
explained: "You see each one of
these teeth has a small portion of
its root intact next to the crown.
The root fragments are from an
eighth to three-sixteenths of an inch
in length. The gum tissue which
was firmly attached to the root frag
ments is richly supplied with
nerves. Had I ruthlessly extracted
Jack's teeth without deadening the
nerve ends, I would have subjected
him to some pain. I knew the teeth
would come out very easily; never
theless, the operation would have
been painful. There is no use of
needlesslv hurting anyone, especially
a child.
"Jack has been coming into this
office regularly, twice a year, for the
past four years. On none of those
occasions has he been hurt. He has
developed a wholesome interest in
his teeth. He is going to grow up
with no fear of dental operations.
Often it is fear that keeps people
from getting their teeth fixed. That
v.as the main reason why I gave Jack
an anaesthetic not that the opera
tion was so severe, but to prevent
him from developing any antipathy
toward dental care."

Corn Crop is
Cut 100,000,000
During August
Private Crop Forecasters at Chicago
Agree That Crop Has Suffered
Heavily From Heat.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2 (UP) Drouth
reduced America's corn crop more
than 100,000,000 bushels during
August, five private crop forecasters
agreed today.
The five experts predicted a 1937
crop of 2.625,000,000 bushels in
their monthly report, a drop of 156,
000,000 bushels from that of August
1.
Today's estimate v.as 34,000,000
bushels less than the government of
last month. The department of agri
culture August estimate placed tha
probable corn yield at 2,659,000,000
bushels. The private estimate of
August 1 was 2,771,000.000 bushels.
Despite sharp reductions in the
probable yield caused by severe
drouth conditions through several of
the major corn producing states in
the early weeks of August, the esti
mate ran far ahead of the actual
yield. Farmers harvested 1,524.000,
000 bushels last year.
The individual estimates:
B. W. Snow: Corn, 2,6:58,000,000;
Spring wheat, 184,000,000.
Nat C. Murray: Corn, 2,793,000,-
000; Spring wheat, 208,000,000.
H. C. Donovan: Corn, 2,680,000,
000; Spring wheat, 200,000,000.
R. O. Cromwell: Corn, 2.638,000,
000; Spring wheat 204,000.0000.
Mrs. E. H. Miller: Corn, 2,596,000,
000;. Spring wheat, 177,000,000.
In addition the firm of James E.
Bennett and Co. estimated the corn
crop at 2,858,000,000 and the spring
wheat yield at 192,000,000 bushels.
Despite the damage done byxAugust
drouth conditions in Nebraska, Iowa,
parts of Illinois and in the Dakotas
the crops in all of the corn states
will be of bumper proportions al
though not as great as expected in
the early summer.
BUFFALO HERD ROAMS
ALONG BIGHT-OF-WAY
CLAYTON, N. M. (UP) The un
usual sight of buffalo roaming along
a railroad right-of-way near here
caused trainmen to bat their eyes in
amazement. Motorists also reported
seeing the animals.
Clayton officers and cowhands went
to the scene and pursued the beasts
in two automobiles. When they ap
proached too close the animals turn
ed and charged. Screaming auto
horns caused them to turn tail and
flee again.
Ivan Shoemaker, brand inspector,
quit the motor chase and got a horse.
The horse on sighting the buffalo ran
in the opposite direction.
George Divers, cowboy, lassoed one
of the beasts, but it snapped his rope.
Shoemaker threw the next loop and
his rope went to shreds. Ike Coch
ran, top-hand cowpuncher, finally
made a catch that held.
Where the animals came from is a
mystery.

NEW BREEDING OF BEES
TRIED TO AID STRAIN
BATON ROUGE, La. (UP) If sci
ence has its way romance will be de
leted from the life of the queen bee.
In an effort to improve bee strains
by controlling the mating of the
queen, experiments have been con
ducted successfully with artificial
insemination of the laboratories of
the University of Louisiana here.
Left to mate without interference
of science, the queen bee ordinarily
wings her way to a tryst high in
the air in spring, her choice of a mate
being a matter of chance, according
to Dr. Otto Mackensen, of the Unit
ed States Bureau of Entymology in
charge of the experiments.
As a result. Dr. Mackensen explain
ed, science has found it all but im
possible to improve the strains by
selective breeding. Initial experi
ments have proved so successful, he
declared, plans now are being form
ulated to make artificial insemination
of the queens of commercial value to
bee culture.
As a result of appropriations of
more than $10,000 sponsored by Gov.
Richard W. Leche for control of bee
diseases, bee culture in Louisiana has
grown to such proportions that this
spring 30,000 queens accompanied by
40,000,000 workers were shipped to
various points throughout the United
States.
Many of the bee colonies are sent
to owners of fruit orchards who use
the bees to spread pollen and increase
their crops.

Commission IS
Holding Hearing
for the Truckers
State Railway Commission to Explain
Law Regarding Certificates
to Transport Freight.
Hearings now are being cor.Jucted
by examiners appointed by the ctate
railway commision in order to permit
truckers to prove their so-called
j "Grandfather" right under Legisative
Bill No. 178, in which hearings it is
necessary for the trucker to prove
that he was in operation prior to the
first of April, 1936, in the territory
which he then was covering, and that
he has been in operation since that
time and covered the territory in
question.
The examiners appointed by the
commission will conduct hearings in
all counties of the state for the con
venience of the truckers, and they
will aid in every- way in bringing out
the facts in the case. It is not neces
sary for any trucker to have an at
torney at the hearings. When the
hearings have been concluded, the ex
aminers will stay as long as is neces
sary in the particular town in ques
tion to aid truckers who have not yet
completed applications in correcting
them, giving such advice and infor
mation as any trucker might want.
The dead line on filling applications,
if a trucker is to preserve all his
rights, is October 16, 1937.
It is not necessary for a trucker
to hire anybody or join any associa
tion to have his application properly
completed, but, if he does think it
necessary for advice and does not
find it convenient to contact our ex
aminers at the various county seat
towns while thev are there, any law
yer undoubedly will be willing to give
the few minutes which will be requir
ed, and at the most the charge will
be nominal. The commission is most
interested in seeing that this law and
the commission be not used as a ve
hicle by any organization or persons
to milk the trucker.

Epidemic Among Hcrses
Several farmers of the vicinity
nave been unfortunate to the extent
of having horses become afflicted
' with sleeping sickness. Some horses
have died, while others are gradual
ly getting better.
Among the farmers whom we have
learned that have sick horses are S.
C. Hardnock, Walter Collins, Charle3
Holmes and Charles Martin.
It is hoped that a cure may be ef
fected for this malady and the loss
through death not prove heavy in
this vicinity.
Corn Crop Going into Silos
A large percentage of the corn
crop is being put into silos this week.
The farmers are making a great ef
fort toward saving as much of the
feed for the stock as possible.
Farmers have attempted in vain to
grow fall pastures, but grasshopper
infestation has frustrated their ef
forts. So, with a second siege of hot
winds and dry weather during the
present season, causing a heavy loss
daily to the feed value of the corn,
farmers have been finding it rather
difficult to secure the use of enough
corn binders and ensilage cutters to
meet their needs in this line.
