The Best treatment
for Itching Scalps
and F alling Hair

To allav itching and irritation of the scalp,
prevent dry, thin and falling hair, remove
otusts, scales and dandruif and promote the
growth and beauty Of the hair, the following
special treatment is most elective, agreeable
and economical On retiring, comb the hair
out straight all around. then begin. at the side
and make parting, gently rubbing Cuticura
ointment into the parting with bit Of soft
flannel held over the end Of the finger. AnoiDt
additional partings about half an inch apart
until the whole scalp has been treated. the
purpose being TO get the Cuticura ointment
on the scalp skin rather than on the hair.
The next morning, shampoo with Cutieuta
soap and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but once or
twice u month is generally sufficient for
this special treatment for women hair. Not

cold everywhere, those wishing TO Try this
treatment may do SO without expense by
sending to tCntcura." Dept. IN. Boston, for

BETTER OATS.
Improving the Quality and Quantity
Of the crop-Preparatlon Of the
Seed Bed and Seeding.
(Bv Prof. M, L. BoWman.)

A carefully prepared seed bed has
been enc of the most neglected
features in connection with the pro-
practice to see an end-gate seeder at
work in fields where the corn stalks
still remain standing on the ground.
As a matter of fact, most Of the
preparation of the seed bed has been
very largely done after the oats have
been sown. Such practices will have
to be done away with before we can
expect the average yield of oats to be
materially increased. The prepare
ton OF the seed bed by no means re-
ceives the attention that 1t should in
connection with all our grains, but
especially is it deficient with our oats.
Through the Investigations of the Iowa
experiment station we are led to be-
lieve that about 20 per cent. of the
oats are put in before the seed bed
Is prepared; the oats being sown
broadcast on unprepared corn stalk
ground, disced once or twice and pos
sibly narrowed. For the best results
the corn stalk ground should be
disced two or three times. tapping the
disc half In order that the stalks may
be cut up and the seed bed put in
desirable condition for receiving the
grain The harrow should be freely
used. 1t Is not desirable that we have
a deep. loose seed bed, nor is 1t
necessary that the ground be plowed
When 1t follows plowed crop II
should, however, be disced sufficient
ly thorough, followed by the harrow
until a mellow surface of at least two
or three inches In depth be prepared
for the receiving of the grain. In gen.
eral. to prepare suitable seed bed for
oats, corn stalk ground should be
disced at least twice. tapping the disc
half. and in addition to this 1t will
pay to double harrow. Some seasons
will require more discing; seldom can
I be done with less.

and private banks. There is easily
$500, 100000 of actual cash wealth
in the banks and deposits of the
state and with the millions that will
roll in when Iowas crops are sold
on the market Iowa will be in better
condition financially than ever be-
fore in her history. This condition
is reflected in the wholesale and man
ufacturing trade. Purchases in the
eastern markets are being made on
large scale and sales at the whole
sale houses in the state are increas-
ing at big rate. Last year was a

traveller. This year he spends all
his time filling up his order books.

The yield per acre in practically
every crop raised in Iowa this year
will be far in excess of that of last
year. A preliminary estimate issued
by DR.. Chapel places the yield of
oats at 46 bushels to the acre as
compared with 25.7 bushels in 1911.
The estimated acreage OF oats is
5000 acres more than last year
With one-third of the wheat thresh-
ing done the average yield per acre
is Is bushels of spring wheat las
compared with 1873 bushels last
Year, and 25 bushels of winter wheat
Gas compared with 17.6 bushels in
191D. The corn yield this Year Is
expected to be fully ten bushels to
the acre in excess of that of last
year, thanks to one of the best crop
seasons that Iowa has ever expert
enced. The federal department of
agriculture places the potato crop
at SO per cent more than 1911, while
the hay yield is estimated at about
81 per cent more than last year.

other reward in this age Of high
civilization.
Helen Kane, 20 years old, found
purse containing SIS two weeks
ago. No one saw her find it.
There was nothing to stop her
keeping the.money.
But she didn't keep it. She
handed it over to the police, and
the owner of the money was
found, and claimed it.
And now Helen Kane, her in
valid mother, 14-year-old sister
and 10-year-old brother, may be
turned out into the streets before
the end of this week.
Helen Kane is working girl.
She works at the G. Felsenthal
Novelty factory, at zoo South
Jefferson street. She gets So a
week, and she labors from $50 to
$50 six days in every week to
get it.
And Helen Kane is the sole
support of her invalid mother and
little brother and sister. The
father of the family is dead.
Helen Kane's mother has been
an invalid for twelve years. The
! girl does most of the Homework,
although Rosie, the 14year-old
sister, helps out. Helen has to
walk to and from work every
morning because she cannot af-
ford carfare.
