THE FIRST GRAY
HAIR SIGN Of ACE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural
Color Of the Hair and
Make It Grow,

A harmless remedy, made from com.
| mon garden sage, quickly restores gray
hair to natural color. The care of the
hair, to prevent it from losing its color
and lustre, is just as important as to
care for teeth to keep them from dis
coloring. why spend money for cos
metics and creams to improve the COM
plexion, and yet neglect your hair, when
gray hair is even more conspicuous and
suggestive of age than wrinkles or a
poor complexion? Of the two, it is
easier to preserve the natural color and
beauty of the hair than it is to have
q good complexion. 4
can that is necessary is the occasional
use of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, a preparation of common gar
den Sage and Sulphur, combined with
other valuable remedies for dry, harsh,
faded hair, dandruff, itching scalp and
falling hair. After a few applications
of this simple, harmless remedy, your
hair will gradually be restored to its
natural color, in short time the dam
druff will be removed, and your hair
will no longer come out but will start to
grow as Nature intended it should.
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make or
mar your good looks. You can buy
this remedy at any drug store for
fifty cents a bottle, and your drug
gist will give your money back if you
are not satisfied after using. Q Pur-
chase bottle today. You will never
regret it when you realize the differ
ence it will make in your appearance

ROAD MATERIALS IN
THE VALLEY AREAS
Tenacious Clay Of the Red
River and Other Valleys
Of the State
Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Agricultural College, June 14.-The
sticky tenacious clay of the Red anG
other river valleys bakes when dry
to a Enthusiastically hard surface
On a Minnesota test road at Crooksto,
ON the Agricultural College roads
and in Fargo township where writ
er as township supervisor has the
pleasure of aiding in the care of the
rural extension of North Broadway il
is found that, smoothing and pulver
izing with special drag just after
each rain renders the gumbo an ideal
road This work We find must be don
at definite time-When the mud has
dried to a certain cOnsistency-nOt
too wet, else it acts as a paste and
roofs and clOds, or too dry, else the
already formed clods set to a degree
making them very hard to pulverize.
However these roads are but gumbo
as best and need surfacing. In val
leys other than the Red gravel and
sand banks are often easily accessible
as we'll as builders from adjacent up
lands. In the broad valley of the
Red these are found Usually only at
some distance that is along the sides.
Here the five deltas and six to fifteen
beaches marking the different limits
of Lave Agassiz afford a wealth of
sand and gravel. The beaches enter
the southeast corner of the state, ex-
tending Is miles northwest, thence
north to the international boundary.
They are a natural highway as to
surface and grade, the latter being
200 feet in 800 miles. They are one
to six townships wide and have to-
tai area of about 1000 square miles
including much goo" gravel and sand.
While two rivers entering Lake
Agassiz from Minnesota formed very
small deltas, there were three large
ones on the west. The Sheyenne,
then a mighty stream, made a delta
deposit Of sand and gravel fifteen to
forty feet deep, so miles in extreme
length and 80 miles in extreme width,
with an area OF about 500 square
miles. This, with four lake beaches
nearby, affords much gravel and sand,
readily transported by the half doz-
en- railroads to ne.ghboring areas,
such as the clay valley to the east.
The glacial Elk river flowed along
the west side of the ice lobe in the
great valley which has no modern
mver, producing a delta miles wide
and 60 miles long extending from the
Township 1856, Range Sc to 147-53.
Here also are the Tintah Norcross
and Herman beaches with their gravel
Ind sand.
The delta of the Pembina is in
township 1923, Range 56-7.
The three eastern beaches in the
North Dakota, namely,
he Gladstone, Burnside and Ojate
AVE too much clay to be usable. The
1merado entering North Dakota on
he north in Range IS and extending
o Crystal, Emerald, and Buxton, has
Jbundance of good gravel and sand, |
IS has also the Campbell beach.
Nature has made a fortunate plac- |
ng Of these beaches, deltas and the |
liver banks in long strips available |
n a maximum area.
Certain coulees along the Sheyenne
n Barnes County show gravel-sand
ayers five to forty feet in section.
