New Zealand Cheese
Competes with Canada
id
TORONTO, Jan. 20.—Canadian
dairymen are concerned over the fu
ture of thoir industry, and steps to
save it front a further slump ate
being considered by provincial and
federal agricultural authorities. The
chief cause for concern is the in
roads that New Zealanders have
made in the British market where
for many years, Canadian cheese
held first position.
J. A. Ituddick, Dominion Dairy
Com mis. -.inner, admits that the in
dustry is "facing a crisis, the liki
of which has never arisen” and M
N. Empey“, president of the Eastern
Dairymen's Association, lias express
ed the same view.
Grading of cheese under Fedora
supervision and seme change in th
texture of the product prepared foi
export are among the measures pro
posed.
Bet wen 1911 and 1921, Federa
figure's} show, exports of cheese t
Great Britain declined from 181,
893,724 pounds annually to 133,
629,340 pounds, while in the sam
period New Zealand’s shipments t
the mother country increased iron
49,187,384 pounds to 160,911,48
pounds.

Pulling Aching Tooth By Wireless
Is Latest Accomplishment of Radio,
Dr. V^ood in the Wireless Room.
! NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—The
, latest accomplishment of wireless and
i one that aj proximates miracle-won:.;
"i is the p, g of a tooth across S00 !
'j miles of h aving seas. Dr. A. h
Wood, surgeon of the steamship j
) “America" of the United States Lines, j
is credited with performing the feat.
, that will g( down through the years j
as radio history. The story of the
tooth-pulling by wireless became,
known upon the recent arrival in port;
of the "America.”
It was late in the night and the
“America,” in mid-ocean, was rhyth
mically throbbing her way to the port
of New 't rk, when Dr. Wood, who
had long since retired to his cabin
was arm; 1 by a pounding on the
door. Tin surgeon arose to lie greet
ed by Win-less Operator Black with
I a radiogram, one of the strangest Dr.
Wood in his many years at sea had
! ! ever received. .
The message was from the captain
11 of a small f reight vessel and stated
! that he had been suffering for five
days with a toothache and that he
desired aid in having the offending
molar effectively yanked. Although
a surgeon and not a dentist, Dr. Wood
decided that it was an emergency in
I 'which ho must not be found wanting.
He would have to live up to the best
i traditions of the sea which reouire
1 tbe giving of prompt assistance when
I aver it be called for._ ,
Bv wireless the “America’s surgeon
called for a detailed history of the
aching molar and when he had been
given the desired information, he de
cided that an immediate extraction
was necessary to give the freight
captain relief. The tootluchy sailor- \.
man informed Dr. Wood that his chief (
engineer w'as prepared to. pull the tor
menting molar with a pair of wire pli
ers, providing detailed directions were
furnished.
With all the exactness, of which ha
is capable, the surgeon of the “Amer
ica” sent specific directions for the
extraction of the molar. Back came
a message from the freighter stating
that the directions were fully under
stood and that the volunteer dentist,
armed with the wire pliers, was about^
to execute the job.
Half an hour later the following
message was shot through the void to i
the “America”: I
“Tooth successfully yanked. Your
generous assistance warmly appre
ciated. God bless you.”
And, so having participated in the
making of wireless history, Dr. Wood
returned to his cahin to complete his
interrupted sleep. Since the perfection
of wireless, ship siitgeons are being
called upon more and more to give
aid to small vessels that carry na
doctor. Pulling a tooth by wireless,
however, is a test that had never be
fore been attempted.
