are so important to his future,
your child should visit the dentist
by the time all his primary teeth
have erupted.
The first visit to the, dental
' office is important because it sets
the stage for building a lifetime of
good dental care habits. The
dentist and his assistants will try,
to make this visit as pleasant as
possible. They will try to gam his,
trust and make him feel welcome.
The dentist will examine the
condition of the 'child's mouth,
and probably take some- x-ray
pictures:. He may also clean the
teeth and see- if anything else
should be done. Finally, he will
suggest ways -to you, the parent.

oral health through ,daily care and
diet.
Before you, tall for an
appointment: it would be helpful
to talk with the -child about Kis

dentist is a friendly doctor who is
going to help him' keep- his teeth
and mouth healthy.
Here are a few pointers that
may be helpful in planning your
child's first visit:
- Make dental visits a fun
adventure: treat Ahem lightly.
- Don't bribe the child to' go to
the dentist or threaten the trip,
a punishment.
- Do avoid letting your child
know of any anikties you may
have had about dentists`..
- Don't tell the child
frightening stories about dentists.

That's all. 'However, sometimes the report-

S\ome of' our friends think this is amusing.
Some don't. We at your local ne . aPer"
.. don't laugh easily when a mistake is de
in your local _paper. -
But in spite of our best, efforts, it does
happen occasionally. Even the editor had to
smile when this caption appeared ,in his,
newspaper under the picture of a fallen tree:

high school beauty queen took an„unusual
turn when the proofreaders overlooked
this one: , .
Queen Margie White was escorted to
her throne•by co-captains Jim Black

presented with roses and drowned.
Sometimes the cla'ssified ads• are full of

Agricwiture Canada"
Confusion over 'the' parentage
of oat varieties is being cleared
after four years of searching,
selecting, interpreting, recording
and organizing information by an
Agriculture Canada research
scientist.
The matter of parentage or
family trees -- for the thousands
"of varieties of oats had become SQ
complicated that different
varieties often shared the same
name, says the ‘researcher, Dr.
Bernard Baum, chief of the
cultivated crop section &Agricul-
ture Canada's Biosystematics
Research Institute.
For example, a farmer is
persuaded by a, neighbor to try a
variety of oats called Trio. He is
told it possesses desirable
qualities for their 'conditions of
soil and climate.
By using that name, thet4's a
50 per cent chance he could end
up with a totally different variety. •
Two varieties are called Trio • one'
registered 10 years ago in Swe-
den and the other a year ago in
the United States.
A similar , but more graphic
example applies to the Russell
variety of oats. It was first
registered by a famous plant
breeder, William Saunders, at
Agriculture Canada's Central
Eiperimental Farm in 1896.
Then; 50 years later, another
variety was developed at the
farm, and was also registered
under the name Russell.
"There are some varieties of
oats that a't'e-called 60 different
names in 60 different countries."
say's Dr. Baum
The results of Dr. Baum's work
are contained in a 266 page book
called the International Register
'of Oats. The book, first published
, last year, is being widely used by
plant breeders, seed buyers,
merchant's and scientists around
the world,
:•Nothing wasp. available
before," he gays. "There was no
inventory of what oat varieties
exist in the world.-
. The project, which started:
when Dr. Baum began studying
Confused ak)out oats?
pedigrees for research on
mutants and frequently found
confusion, has entailed endless
searches of related literature and
liaison with other agricultural
scientists arour4\. the world.
The publication now lists 5,000
names of oatvarieties and uses 24
languages.
Dr: Baum enlisted the support of
Agriculture Canada's Statistical
Reseatch Service for the project.
Computers have been widely
used in the preparation ,of the
publication.
"It would hive been impossible
to prepare the book in a lifeti
without computers." Dr. Ba m
says. He worked in associati n
with B.K. Thompson of $tatisti al
Research."

gives breeders an j idea-cif the
'parentage to help in experiments.
It's also a valuable reference
document which helps avoid
duplication of names for
varieties."
The computersystern Includes
19 different .progearns; all of
which are int erlockia.
information on parentage of oat
varieties -- "We get it by,
studying the literature and
hanging on to everything we get
our hands on" -- is often
genetically interpreted and then
formulated for the computer.
"It' just puts everything toget-
her, although we've had, troubles
when we come across,/the same
name for different varieties from
different parents."
One of the most important
referende documents,. was the
Gardener's Dictionary, a book
written by Philip Miller and
published in Britain in 1752.
"This is the starting point for
the .nomenclature of cultivated
plants in general," Dr. Baum
says.
The computer provides, along
with graphic family-tree print-
outs of the '5,000 varieties, a
record of the synonyms and
translations for 'each name and
cross-references.
Dr. Baum hopes that, in the
future; the publidati9n will con-
serve -the parentage ofnew oat
varieties.
"They sometimes get thrown
out when something better is
found. That genetic matieral is
th.en lost to the plant breeder
forever," he sa
Because of this, searches have
been conducted aro std the world
-- especially in • underdeveloped
areas --where old varieties of oats
sere still beingt grown.
In this way, some of the early
,genetic material is being.
retrieved.
For the future, Dr. Baum
intends to continue the task of
tracing parentage of cultivated
crops, using' the same Computer
techniques prefected during the
oat program, but improving it to
cover areas complementary to the
basic data needed for the
breeder.
"1 think we will be turning our
attention' next to barley," -he
says. '

In the last two decades, report,

accelerating corrosion to man-

One of the distressing aspects',
of the problem Is that much of the
increased acidity can be traced to
the use of new. methods of
combatting air pollution. New
devices, which remov only
visible particles of s td a ft er
from smoke stacks, I allow
gases such as su 1phur dioxide
and oxides of nitrogen to escape:
Those smokestacks, no longer
appear to be belching smoke. But
they' re belching invisible gases

`Before the new devices were
used, the solid particles--the ones
that could be seen--were capable
of neutralizing the acids. No
more.
The new smokestack particle
removers as well, as the
increasing use of very tall
smokestacks--some smokestacks
are nearly a quarter of a mile
tall--have, according to the two
ecologists, "transformed local
soot problems into a regional acid
rain problem." The problem
