ATI Awkward Situation

Complaint is made by H011. F. W. Pirie, Min- ister of Lands and Mines in the New Brunswick government, that potato shippers 0f New Bruns- wick are ruining the provincial export market by price slashing tactics, and that as a result the province will sell less than 100,000 crates of seed potatoes to the Argentine this winter where last year it sold 700,000 crates. “Legislatiorfi, said Mr. Pirie, “must be put into effect that will give some control over these chiscllers or scalpcrs." '

.\[r. Piric as a staunch Liberal no doubt spoke and voted against the Bennett Governmenfs market control lcgislzttiotl, which 11-115 an issue in the 1935 federal election. Such an Act, how- ever, would' precisely meet the difficulty the .\'ew Bruustvick potato imltistry- is now experi- encing. Of course. 11111111111111 legislation could be introduced but it will bc somewhat awkward for a Liberal government to sponsor such a measure after all the criticism levelled against it in the Liberal catnpaign.

GUARDIAN _ , ....._.._:_

THE MIDNIGHT TOOTHACE

A moth may ache at time: dur- ing the day, but it ls often in the middle of the night that the severe attack occurs that gets the individual out of bed in a hurry looking ‘for a pain killing drui. or, lf a cavity ls present some Oll 0f cloves to push into the cavltv on absorbent cotton.

As a rule this severe attack of toothache does not come out of a. clear sky because there have us- uall been some ‘rumblings’ of trou le for days or perhaps weeks previously. Had the dentist been consulted after the first or second slight. attack of toothache, this severe pain might have been avoid- ed. '

What causes this severe pain?

In order to learn whether pain ls due to an abscess at one of the roots of the tooth, Dr. F. F. Smith, ln Hygela, says! "Is it a filled tool-h? Does tooth feel long? Does lt. hurt. when you blte on it? fl it does, the chances are you have an abcess. Try some cold water lu your mouth. Hold the water around the tooth If the cold water gives somerelfef from the pain then an abscess is present.

Your tooth is hurting because of pressure. Inside under tha: large filling the nerve or pulp had died. Maybe the filling was placed too deep without an intermediate layer of insulating material. Metal fillings are good conductors of heal. and cold and any change in temperature ls easily transferred to the nerve or pulp. If there is no noncouductlng material to pro- tect the pulp this constant irri- tation will cause it to ‘die’. When pulp dles, ‘pus and gas develop and the expan lng gas causes pressure and pain as it cannot get out of the canal of the tooth.

By applying cold water and thus reducing the temperature, some re- lief ls obtained for a little while. Dentists usually extract. these dead teeth that are causing pain.

Dr. Smith states further that when cold v-ater, lcecream or other cold substance causes the tooth to ache or increase the pain, the nerve or ulp ls not. dead and

that the den 1st by removing the fllllng and treating the canal for some weeks, may be able to save the tooth.
