By the Assoclated Press. ST. PAUL, .finn., April 22.—Dis satisfaction with the food at a state reformatory at St. Cloud by 15 in mates, who went on a hunger strike, resulted in their transfer to the State prison at Stillwater, the Ploneer Press states in a story published today. J. Casey, assistant superintendent of the reformatory, said “The transfer | was made because it was felt that | they were agitators, making trouble among the inmates and constituted a bad influence on the younger men,” | the newspaper declares. The men were moved on April 9, | but it was not until last night thaf | this became known. State board of | control members, to whom recom- mendation was made that the men be moved to the prison “for the good of the institution,” were reluctant to discuss_the incident. The Ploneer Press says the trouble started at the noon meal on April 9 The 15 complained about the food and hurled dishes at the guards. After the men were quieted they were taken to_Stillwater Prison. Members of the hoard of control said that no official investigation of the affair has been instituted.

Prehistoric Beasts Also Pyorrhea Sufferers, Medlcal Expert Says The findings, he belleves, dispel sev- al theories on causes of disease, and mong these is the opinion that teeth and jaw deformities are due to im- proper mastication. Though these huge animals spent most of thelr waking hours in mas- ticatlon of food, they were subject to tooth disease. Pyorrhea, for exam- ple, was a common disease among the animals, he said. Diseases prevalent among all earlier types did not differ from those now prevalent, and since this is true, Dr. Young sald, he believed certain typ disappeared because of some wide spread infection, explanation rather than the better known theories based on climatical or geographical changes.
