security and go ahead with the farms
for which scores of people are wait
ing now. Instead, he must do it one
at time, and the strain of respon-
sibility and anxiety between the
time when the money is paid down
and when the land begins to pay for
itself is telling on this man. though
he tries not to show it Such
an investment is nothing more nor
less than a fair, and rather good, bust
ness proposition. He adds that if the
lenders desired the credit of the act
he would be willing to call ii Eel
lowShip Farm Founders association,
and make it a board of directors-but
this seems immaterial. The main
thing is to have as many farms as
possible, and as soon as possible.
However, if this money could be Dor
rowed at five per cent ten or II such
colonies could be organized each
year. The original farm has already
begun to train teachers to take charge
of the new ones.
But whether this money comes or
does not come, the plan has caught
hold and will go on, because it is
practical and vital; it has touched
with healing place in our national
life which needs healing

Little Fields" as it ought to be
called. a glad and vigorous intellect
ual life, not bothering a great deal
with books, but figuring things out
for themselves. The young men
have the bronzed faces of seamen,
and young women the arm of plow-
boys, and their delight in the actual

ing. Some have had their pinch and
their anxious times, others are in the

TO KEEP THE HAIR LIGHT AND
FLUFFY.
(From Chicago Inter ocean,

The proper care of the hair does
not require a woman to scour her
scalp with soap and drench her hair
with water until a shampoo, inc,ud-
ing drying the hair, takes the better
part of the day. In fact, the less
soap and water used on the hair the
better, as alkali and moisture tend to
make the hair coarse, dull and brittle.
If you want to keep the scalp clean
and the hair light and fluffy, try dry
shampooing. Put in a quart jar, or
any other handy container four
ounces of powdered orris root and
four ounces of theroX. Stir and shake
until thoroughly mixed. A beautiful
cleansing powder with a delicate per
fume will be the result.
Sprinkle a tablespoonful of this
mixture on the head and then brush
it well through the hair. This brings
out the natural color of the hair,
makes it soft and glossy. and If con-
tinued regularly, tends to make the
hair long and abundant, for it is a
natural hair grower.

and costly experiments which he
made were of small consequence By
actual trial under farm conditions he
finally solved the problem, and
evolved a practice that makes alfalfa
a very profitable crop.

What Would Nature Do II We Were

is the same with nature. Every day and
night millions of creatures find their way
home over long distances with unerring
accuracy; and some of us wonder how 1t
is done Imagine what would be the eff

minutes awful silence during which
everybody would be cropping about IN

Thousands upon thousands would be fall
