from time to time, in the form of travelogues others won't be.
The "Old Ship Sedan," and the "Little Green Bug" which
have propelled the portable typewriter and its willing slave in
past pilgrimages will be left at home this time, along with the
family dorg, Mrs. B. and about 300 perfectly charming pack
rats. Various and sundry railroad companies will do the neces

Medford that the Industrial future ot
Southern Oregon and Northern Cali
fornia depends upon establishment
at Crescent City of a deep-water har

WHY? Because Southern Oregon
and Northern California suffer
from a hump-backed freight rate
structure that permit the railroads
to charge more tor hauling a carload
of freight from San Fanclsco to Med

Then an amendment to the appro

to be spent annually to aifiO.000,000.
The fight Is on now to determine
which figure will prevail.
IT SEEMS to this writer that If the
government Is going to reduce
ALL spending approximately two
thirds, It should reduce highway
spending at the same rate.
But If the government Is going to
go on spending with a lavish hand In
order to stimulate employment and
general business, It can spend In no
better way than on permanent high
ways. Highway building provides employ

QUESTION'S AND ANSWERS
Conservation of the Teeth
Quite a while ago you came out
with the rather startling remark that
a person could throw away his tooth
brush and yet not be In danger of
having decayed teeth. That was hard
to believe at first, but, according to
the latest views of leading authori
ties In nutrition resesrch, dental hy
giene, etc., I can see It Is common
sense. Why don't they teach It to
dentists? (P. w. L.)
Answer. No, I never came out with
any such remsrk. I merely said the
use ot tne toothbrush has nothing to
do with the preservation of the teeth
or with the prevention of decay. Send
a stamped envelope besrlng your ad
dress and ask for the free monograph
which contalna the gist of our pres
ent knowledge of the conservation of
the teeth.
Salts Habit
Mother and I have been In the
habit of drinking a glass of hot water
containing a teaspoonful of cream of
tartar and some lemon juice, a half
hour before breakfast. Our systems
seem to be well regulated, but we
would like to have your opinion of
this practice. (Miss D. U.)
Ans. Unwlss, I think. Why depend
on any kind of salts or other aid
Lto "regulate" a function which, If let
alone, always regulates Itself? Send a
dime and stamped addressed envelope
snd ask for the booklet "The Con
stlpstlon Hsbit." But don't ask for
my cure or treatment for constipa
tion. If It Isn't a habit, I can tell
you nothing for It except that you
should consult your physician about
it. ;
