How Is Your Dental Health?
Do you know the average adult, who has not visited
his Dentist during the past year is walking around
with about 4 cavities in his mouth? They can not
only cause much pan and unpleasant breat, but
also endanger healths because it may be more diffi
cult to properly chew food.
Many Children’s Teeth Are Neglected.
If the “baby” or temporary teeth are not taken
care of and prematurely lost, the permanent teeth
may come in irregularly, often causing an unsightly
appearance.
Pyorrhea Is Causing Much Discomfort.
About 44% of adults in their forties and about
80% of those past sixty suffer from its inflammatory
form called “Gingivitis.”
Why Should People Avoid Dental Care?
Modern techniques and analgesics make visits to
a Dentist almost a pleasure. Future pain and loss
of teeth can be prevented. If you have not con
sulted a dentist within the past year be wise. Do
it soon.
Our Dental Aids Stocks Are Complete.
A»k your dentist to write the exact medication,
tooth brushes or pase and aniseptics he judges
best for you and we will be glad to supply his
exact specifications.

Garden Time
By M. E. GARDNER
N. C. State College
A wide variety of house plants :
and flowering bulbs makes it |
possible for ’most every home to I
enjoy growing things throughout !
the year. While the conditions j
that prevail in many apartments
and homes cannot compare with
the environment found in a green
house, you can be successful if
good practices are followed.
If plants are in a window, they
should be arranged attractively.
If special provisions have been
made, such as planters, choose the
plants that are best suited for
the area. Your florist or nursery
man will be glad to make sug
gestions.
Select colors which harmonize
with other hues in the room.
Orange chrysanthemums for bron
zy tones, massed pink and red
azaleas in an ivory window and
others. Proper container sizes,
shapes and color blending should
also be observed.
A good general purpose potting
soil for most house plants is
one-third good soil, one-third peat
and one-third coarse sand, by
volume. Mix about one-half cup of
dehydrated cow or sheep manure
I to each quart of soil.
It is important that sterilized
soil be used. Do this before the
fertilizer is added. Soil may be
sterilized by heating to 180 de
grees P. and holding at this tem
perature for about thirty minutes.
[ It may be possible to buy steriliz
ed composted soil from your local
florist. If you can, this is your
best bet.
Watering must be done very
carefully. Perhaps more plants
are lost, or do not grow well,
because of improper watering
than any other one factor in
house plant care. First provide
bottom drainage when the pot is
filled with soil. Use enough wa
ter, at room temperature (rain
w'ater is good) to completely
moisten the soil. Do not water
again until the soil feels dry to
the touch. Small pots will dry out
fastest and the water lost by
transpiration will be greater din
ing dry sunny weather than on
dark rainy days.
