Operations Necessary
For Making Lowly Pin
Here is how the ordinary pin is
I made. A stiff pin-wire is drawn
1 into a machine from a large hank
and the first operation takes all the
kinks and twists out of the thin'
wire, after which a head is struck
on the end by a header which strikes
a series of rapid blows. After the
head is formed the wire is cut to
the desired length and a series of
files points the other end.
After the pins come from the ma
chine, they are placed in a revolving
barrel filled with sawdust where all
, oil is absorbed and the pin emerges
clean and bright. They are next
put in a blower where the remaining
sawdust is removed, after which
they go into a huge boiler. They
are boiled for five or six hours in a
copper boiler, containing layers of
tin, in a solution of argol or bitar
trate of potash. This leaves them
with a covering of tin, and gives
(hem a bright shiny appearance,
j Again they are cleaned, washed
and dried and are ready for the
sticking room where they are put
in paper folders.

Much Sweets Produces Decay
Sugar is a potent dietary factof
in the production of decay in teeth,
Dr. Philip Jay, research associate
professor of oral pathology at the
University of Michigan, told a group)
of dentists recently.
Reporting on experiments conduct
ed at an orphanage. Dr. Jay said
that evidence was found to indicate
dental decay is a manifestation of
malnutrition. ‘‘lt may be prevent
ed by feeding adequate diets, or
sweets definitely restricted," he
said.
Decay activity was increased in
children, his report disclosed, solely
by raising the sugar intake while
they were receiving a diet of opti
mum nutritional adequacy.
Million Trees for Protection
Land wasted either through ero
sion or intensive cultivations will be
rehabilitated in the Dust Bowl re
gion, if plans of the government are
successful. The government, is
planting 1,300,000 trees and shrubs
as part of its drive. Already 7,500
acres of farm land have been plant
ed as protective windbreakers since
the program started in 1935. Essen-
I tial for the successful growth of the
trees, a government official stated,
is careful preparation of the tree
site, supply of additional water
through diversions, frequent cultiva
tion and protection from damage by
live stock and rabbits.
Texas Wheat Crop
Texas farmers produced more
than 40,000,000 bushels of wheat lasi
year.
