a tonic internally. to build up the gen

can apply It herself, but the services
of a member Of the family make the
treatment simpler.
Unless the hair is coming out liter

illness. I believe brushing Is most EN-

bristles. rather far apart, in orde,
that they hall reach to the scalp, and
the stroke is to stimulate quite a.

as there are two spears left in the

a coiffure. The old hair, under those
conditions, does not sap nourishmen,

easier to manage. But when there Is
no app 'ent reason for the trouble

cottonseed Meal and eutter.

1t is the general experience that
cottonseed meal produces hard but
ter, and in some instances a small
amount of this feed is given for that
specific purpose. Crude cottonseed
oil has been found to contain a
quantity of so called vegetable
stearin, which is separated from the
cottonseed oil Of commerce in the
process of refining. Its fatty acids
have a high melting point, and its
general composition is not unlike
that of other oils which have been
found to produce hard butter when
fed to cows. Corn oil, on the other
hand. contains practically no stearin,
and Its fatty acids, like those of lin
seed oil. are liquid at temperature
considerably below freezing point.
