GRANDNOTHERS
USED SAGE TEA
To Darker the Hair and Re-
store Gray and Faded Hair
to Its Natural Color.

1t is easier to preserve the color Of
the hair than TO restore it, although it
is possible to DO both. Our grand
mothers understood the secret. They
made q 'sage tea" and their dark,
glossy hair long after middle life was
due to this fact. Our mothers have gray
hairs before they are fifty, but they are
beginning to appreciate the wisdom of
our grandmothers in using "sage tea"
for their hair and are fast following suit.
The present generation has the advan-
tage OF the past in that it can get a
ready-to-use preparation called Wyeth's
Sage and Sui phur Hair Remedy. AS a
scalp tonic and color restorer this prep
aration is vastly superior to the ordinary
sage tea" made by our grandmothers.
The growth and beauty Of the hair
depends on healthy condition Of the
scalp. Wysth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy quickly kills the dandruff germs
which rob the hair of its life, color and
hstre, makes the scalp clean and
healthy, gives the hair strength, color
and beauty, and makes it grow.

Harvesting Alfalfa

Important points of an address be-
fore Illinois Alfalfa Growers associa-
ton at Old Salem, Aug. %, by Lindsey
Reese Of Pana, H.
All our work and toll in this life
is In reference to harvest, for 1t is not
written Of old, Whatsoever a man
soweth, that shall he also reap"
Hence, after all we consider harvest
the most important Of all events con
nected with our work of every kind.
The harvesting Of alfalfa seems to
be on a plan by itself; every other
crop We allow more or less TO ripen,
but not so with this plant. There Is
a certain stage in its growth when it
makes better feed If harvested and
yet there is no absolutely certain midi
cations OF just the time when the
plant is in this condition. There are
generally two rules laid down 10 gov
ern the cutting Of alfalfa. The first
rule is to cut when from one-tenth to
one-fifth Of the plants are in bloom,
another rule is 10 cut when new
branches begin 20 start from the par
ent crown, but neither Of these rules
are absolutely certain and yet both
. ere good indications OF the proper time
10 harvest alfalfa. In my first crop
this year the new shoots began to ap-
/ pear several days before the plants
began 70 bloom. and in the second crop
the plan was reversed by the plants
being almost in full bloom before the
new stalks began TO appear on the
crown. SO we conclude that these

Name the Farm

What's in a name? There may be
much or little, depending upon the in
telligence, the ambition and the pro-
gressiveness OF its owner. Every re-
spectacle person honors his name, pro-
tects il from disgrace and likes to hear
it mentioned In connection with good
works of every kind. Every COOL man
and woman has cherished memory
of the old home where childhood's
days were spent and If that old home
was on a farm, that farm should have
a name that will distinguish 1t from all
other farms of the county, so that the
mere mention of the name will bring
to the memory of all who know it, its
particular location, the personnel of its
owners and the things it produced.
Nearly every other business house,
factory or firm has adopted a name and
credit Is established. Every farm il
Illinois is worthy Of name and every
farmer in Illinois can make a repGta-
ton and establish a credit for his farm
and its products through Intelligent,
careful study and the adoption of ap-
proved modern methods of procedure.
A name may mean much, as the
years roll by well chosen name
lends dignity to place and is a sort
of trade mark which distinguishes it
and its products! it characterizes its
owner as a man Of pride and stimu-
lates all who are interested in 1t or
its products to do and to be the best,
and to make the products as good or
better than those of any other.
We believe that well selected
name will furnish an incentive for bet
/ ter farming; that all implements, tools,
vehicles, crates and products, wIeL-
ever possible, should have the name
of the farm indelibly stamped Ipop
them; that 1t should adorn every en-
trance to the farm and be printed upon
all stationery used on the farm. we
believe that the name should be well
chosen-not hastily. but, II possible,
should relate to some distinct feature
Of the farm. its location, topography or
products; the entire family should
have part in, and be satisfied with
its selection, and that everybody should
use the name when referring to the
farm, its owner or It's products.
In selecting a name avoid adopting
name already in use in the same
county Illinois Farmers Institute
