Fair preparations and dandruff cures,
as a rule. are sticky or irritating affairs
that do no earthly good. Hair when not

Dandruff is the cause OF nine-tenths Of
all hair trouble, and dandruff Is caused
by a germ. The only way to cure dand-
run is to kill the germ; and. so far. the
only hair preparation that will positively
destroy the germ is Newbro's Herpicide-

WANT GRAIN ELEVATORS
Sacking Method Now in Use Is
Awkward and Costly.
State College Department of Agri-
culture and Railroad People
Discussing the Matter.

At the instance OF prominent wheat
growers and representatives OF the farm
ing interests Of Eastern Washington, the
State College, through its department of
agriculture, has taken up with the Off
cials of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St
Paul railway the matter Of constructing
grain elevators instead of warehouses
along the line OF the road through the
wheat-raising districts of Eastern Wash
ington.
The proposed route of the railroad will
carry it through some OF the richest
wheat-raisiDg districts of the state. 1t
will enter Washington by way Of one OF
the forks of the st. Maries river, cross
the northern part of Whitman county,
thence across the central part of Adams
county, then into the Big Bend country
which includes the southern part of
Douglas county, and on into Kitttas
county, crossing the mountains by way
OF the Snoqualmie pass.
Correspondence between Prof E. E.
Elliott OF the State College and President
Williams OF the c., NJ. & st. P. company
OF Washington, has considered the fact
that grain cannot we'll be shipped in
bulk around Cape Horn, but that with
the completion of the Panama canal
this objection to the elevator system will
be removed; and, further, that in case of
elevators being established at country
stations elevators would likewise have
to be built at the Pacific coast terminals.
Such a change presents knotty problems,
but in view of the awkward and expen
sive methods now in use, and the great
expense in buying grain bsgs, to which
the farmers are now subjected, the
change from warehouses to elevators is
receiving serious consideration on the
part of the railway officials and the
authorities Of the State College
