THE DIET LIST.

along the diet line is that OF combining
oneself to one or two articles OF food

elements for nourishing strong healthy

SHAMPOO FOR OILY HAIR.
From tho Philadelphia Press.

From tho Philadelphia Press.
A young woman who mas tried all sort
OF remedies to keep the oil out OF her
hair says she gets best results by using
shampoo made from pure olive oil soap,
in which pinch Of soda has been mixed.
Cut a cake of soap into quart OF
boiling water TO make thick jelly when
cold. This is bottled and kept for future
use.
Before shampooing take couple OF
spoonfuls of this jelly. mix Il with a
pinch OF soda-do not get lavish with the
soda, a pinch is enough-and rub 1t well
into the scalp which has first been wet
with hot water.
Another way to apply the shampoo mix
ture TO scalp is TO part the hair IN strands
and rub IL on with a tooth brush or small
nail brush.
After the scalp and long hair has been
well washed It should be rubbed vlgor-
ously with finger tips and thoroughly
rinsed.

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
FROM WOMANS
POINT OF VIEW

1t may be that contentment means stag
nation. but II might be better to risk
that than 20 cultivate the spirit OF IN
rest which drives us to work beyond our
strength and dulls tho sense OF enjoy
me1t. Every woman knows that she
needs 10 relax sometimes. yet few are
willing 10 take a season OF rest, with
delicious idle minutes and early retiring
hours. They want 20 be sightseeing or
doing their part in games. or converse
ton. II they have comfort. they want
luxury, and when they have luxury they
sigh for things which do not exist
Nobody can DO blamed for getting the
most out OF life. but there are differences
OF opinion concerning the meaning OF that
phrase. Happiness Is the most important,
although doctors declare health precedes
IT, There are perfectly healthy men and
women who are not happy, and invalids
who find much to compensate them for
the lack OF health. 1 believe that we
arc forgetting how to be happy as we
have forgotten how to be merry. We have
all the things necessary 70 happiness. but
fail 20 feel the thrill TIE few who have
found Il attribute the cause to little
things. not those for which they have
sought. but just the things lying about
them.
A man told me, the other day, that there
was no such thing as contentment, as the
poor envied the middle class. which. in
turn. sighed for the advantages OF the
rich. admitted that we all wanted TO
live IN an atmosphere OF plenty. but that
many would not care TO shoulder the re-
spOnSlbilities OF the rich- I told him 1

q modest automobile rather than have

for Il, and expense plays no part f. this
matter. I know owners OF small boats
who do not envy the passengers carried

them on the water Contentment Is more
common with men than with women, I
reckon.
The craving for wealth is a curse 70

acquiring It with patience. II Is hard 10

they are neglectIng bits OF happiness

many parts of the country at pres
ent. 1t will be several months be
fore the total destruction is known,
for the fire season has considerable
time to run. In figuring out this
years losses, it will be natural to
make comparison with losses for last
year which, according to Treadwell
Cleveland, jr., in the year book Of the
department of agriculture, will cause
1908 to be long remembered.
"a dry season, combined with what
seemed to be even more than the usu-
al Indifference toward small fires
which might easily have been extin-
guished at the start" says Mr.. Cleve-
land. Caused destructive conflagra-
tions in practically every state, with
losses aggregating 500, 100000. In
comparison with the havoc wrought
elsewhere, the damage done to ma
tional forests was exceedingly slight.
Had fires ragged within the forests as
they din outside they would have de-
stroyed timber worth 100000, 900
enough to run tn eforest service for
six years Moreover, it Is practically
certain that most If not all Of the
damage which was done might have
been prevented had the forests been
fully manned"
Finally, the estimates Of loss
made by the service on national for
ests are particularly searching, and
take full account % the injury done
to young growth Commonly esti-
mates Of loss afrom forest fires are
passed upon the damage done to
standing timber and to property;
they do not reckon the usually far
greater loss in injury or destruction
Of young growing stock"
The methods by which the govern
ment keeps down the fire losses on
the national forests include:
I. Constant and systematic patrol
by picked forces Of rangers and
guards.
2. The construction of roads, trails
and telephone lines, which facilitate
the massing Of large fire-fightlng
forces.
3. The construction Of fire lines,
which in some instances, check the
spread Of fire without human help.
4. The equipment Of the forests with
fire fighting tools and other supplies
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-09-29

plies necessary in fighting fires The
supplies Of tools are kept at conven-
lent points at all times, in order to
have them easily accessible to forest
officers, in case fires break out
8. Cooperation with railroads, tim
berland owners and settlers in fire
protection, in this way making it pos
sible to protect both the lands of the
companies and the forest service at
much smaller cost to the govern
ment than would be the case were the
national forest lands alone protected
by the local officers.
Just as the practice of forestry is
important in the movement for the
conservation of all natural resources,
so is the protection of the forests
from fires important in the further
ance of national forest work. In
fact, forestry in many instances
means nothing more than conserva-
tive numbering and the prevention of
forest fires Uncle Sam realizes that
only through the wise use and care
of the forests will IL De possible to
make natural timberland permanently
productive. The practice of forestry
does not mean abbreviating the use
Of the land. Instead, conservative
numbering and protection of the young
growth from fire will bring about a
steadily increasing use, for with chl-
tivation and care the yield Of the for
est increases and the product i'm

FARMERS NOT
LUXURY LOVERS
BUY AUTOS FOR UTILITY
RATHER THAN PLEASURE
Secretary Wilson and Chancellor
Strong Arouse Much Hostile Criti-
clsm by Branding the Western
Farmer As Extravagant-He In
vests His Money Wisely.

Topeka, Kans, Sept 29.-Chancel-
lor Strong, of the University of Kan
sas. formerly president of the Univer-
sity of oregon, is quoted as saying
that so much money has been made
in the west during the last ten years
and so much of it has been given to
/ the boy, presumably the farmers son,
that he has desired to live pretty
/ WELL and some Of them (the boys)
have craved and have had motor
cars "All of this" adds the chan
cellor, "has a tendency to distract at
tention from studies, and we have
/ had some hard work to combat the
| tendency" Now as to the western
country boys father. Secretary Will
son on his return the other day from
months vacation on his farm in
| Iowa. when asked if il were really
true that farmers were investing such
large sums of money in automobiles,
replied: THE farmer is out of debt;
| he has paid for his farm, his fences
and his machinery. He has money
in his pockets and big crops continue
tc come on. He will not invest in
eastern securities, lest a year might
| bring trouble there. As a result, he
puts his money in luxuries, instead
of channels that might give a return.
/ why. folks in the east do not know
what luxuries are. They must go
west to find that out"
Unless the country has been great
ly msinformed by the bank COM
missioners of Iowa and Kansas and
other western states, and by many
other persons who have taken up the
| subject at various times during the
/ last few years, Secretary Wilson is
very likely to be called upon TO mod
| ify some of these statements. We
| have been told indeed until it is gem
orally accepted as a fact that the
western farmer is not only a buyer
/ of shares and bonds, but a money
/ lender on very extensive scale.
Moreover, we have II on equally
good authority that, as a rule, the
automobile, far from being a luxury
| has become a necessity on the farm.
President W. c. Brown of the y. Y.
Central Railway, after a visit to his
farm in Iowa not long since, told how
/ the farmers in the vicinity made
money in saving time, by the use Of
the automobile. 1t will be recalled
that in this connection he said that
scores Of automobiles were owned by
! farmers in his neighborhood, and that
many more would be in use if the or
ders for them could be filled. At
recent celebration in a western agri-
cultural community, one hundred
farmers automobiles were in line.
There are instances. no doubt, and
perhaps many of them, where west
ern farmers indulge in the automo-
bile. and in other things, purely as
luxuries, but speaking generally, the
farm automobile in these days is not
any more of a luxury than was the
farm buggy" of a few years ago.
