Good farming consists Of Just three
things, management, live stock and
soil fertility.
Take for example the spring work
on q farm. A careful manager has
all the farm implements repaired
ready to 60 to work when the time
comes? He does not have to walt
because his pillow is not sharpened,
or because the tongue Is not in the
lister. He gets better work done for
less money because be has his re-
pairing done in the winter season
when the blacksmith IL not busy.
Through the winter the careful
farmer has had his seed selected,
sheIlsd and ready for the planting.

the tree one foot caught in the forks
Of limb, and he was left hanging
there.
Bonner had been shot twice in the
back Of the head with rifle Of large
caliber and anonther bullet had tornn
one side Of the jaw away. He disap-
peared two months ago and he is be-
lieved to have been dead all that
time. Bonner was the owner OF o
team and cab and was well known In
Tulsa. Two months ago he was en-
gagged to take a stranger into the
woods on a hunting trip. He never
returnend. He had no family ana
no particular inquiries were made
about him after his disappearance,
1t is believed that Bonner was first
accidentally shot BY the man with
whom he went hunting. There is a
squirrel nest at the top of the tree
and 1t is supposed that Bonner
climbed 1t to look for the young.
Probably an old squirrel ran out OF
the nest and the mann with Bonner
fired at 1t with rifle, striking his
companion insead of the squirrel
Bonner fell, 1t is supposed, and his
companion. seeing that Bonner was
fatally shot, fired again to make sure
that he was dead, or to end his
suffering.

Kansas soon viii be planting about
1900 900 acres OF corn. Are the farm
ers taking into consideration the In
sect parasites which probably Will
reap 10 per cent Of the possible
yield? From the time the seed y
planted until the resulting yield is
sold or fed into stock 1t Is liable TO
injury and destruction. Injury and
destruction that, by the application Of
thought and effort can be largely
eliminated.
The creatures which will attack the
crop are now In the soil Of the pros
pective corn fields, or in fields near
by. !,
The damage done by insects which
do not migrate In large numbers dur
ing the growing season will depend
upon the climate, the nature OF the
soil, and the use to which 1t has pre-
viously been put. Corn planted on
land recently in sod is likely to sui

thoroughness with which we study

they grow. We must live with our

THE MODERN
HEAD DRESS
Causes Baldness-We Can
not Change the Head
Dress, But We Can
Prevent Badness.

Up TO the time we began to civil
lie him a bald headed Indian was a
thing unknown. Wearing nothing on
his head except the covering furnished
by nature and being q stranger to the
use of a hair brush, especially the
public one, the scalp and hair had
plenty of ventilation. much sunlight
and, hence. a condition favorable TO a
luxuriant growth OF hair existed at
all times
1t was the adoption of air and light
excluding head gears and artificial
head decorations generally. together
with the occasional use of a community
hair brush, which gave the dandruff
germ its opportunity. Since this para
site has multiplied to an alarming de-
gree until now there is hardly person
who is not troubled more or less with
dandruff and falling hair.
Many. to be sure. have passed the
worrying stage. Having become chron-
ically bald they realize that nothing is
capable of producing natural hair for
them Let these be a warning TO all
who are experiencing the significant
annoyance of dandruff and falling hair
Dandruff, which is due to a germ,
and falling hair can both be overcome
by the regular use of Newbro's Herpi-
eide
This wonderful scalp remedy kills
the vicious germ which causes dand-
ruff, cleanses the scalp and stops the
hair from coming out. The destruc-
ton of the germ permits the hair to
grow naturally and luxuriantly as
nature intends.
Herpicide makes the hair bright,
snappy, light and fluffy.

Both Sides of Prohibition
CONTRIBUTED BY ]. L. CAMPBELL.

Asksvour own druggists to give you
the names of patent medicines he
sells that contain more than per-
cent of alcohol.
That is as true of the nonprohibition
as of prohibition territory. Moreover,
the country is rapidly coming to prohi-
bition of such dangerous and harmful
medicines as it is TO the prohibition
of the liquor traffic. Does the latter
oppose prohibition of such medicine?
Questions 124 and 10 and answers
read:
"124: Were the authors Of the
present strict local option laws
regulating the conduct of saloons,
prohibitionists or anti statewide
prohibitionists? They were anti
state wide prohibitionists.
officers"
AS between local option and prohi-
bition, the liquor traffic always pre-
fers the former. This Is the strongest
POSSIBLE argument in favor of the lat
ter. Prohfbitfonists are the only genu-
me and consistently loyal supporters
of both local option and prohibition.
They prefer the latter because OF Its
wider, simpler and more effective ap-
plication. The liquor traffic is always
a. treacherous foe to every form or
prohibition. When a selection is I'M
avoidable, it chooses the least ito ltl
of the evils presented.
Question and answer 127 read:
"127 If the amendment to be
voted on July % is defeated viii
the precincts and counties where
prohibition now exists under the
local option system be in anywise
affected? They will not"
Quite true, But, in this, there Is a
vast difference to all concerned. By
the defeat Of the amendment, the
liquor traffic will remain entrenched
in It's present strongholds. and 1t Will
attempt persistent inroads into the
dry precincts and counties. The latter
will be left open to frequent attacks.
The adoption of the amendment will
expel the liquor traffic from the state
and confirm and secure the dry coun-
ties in the enjoyment of all the adyant-
ages of local option guaranteed by
the constitution of the state
