FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and Iustre,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur to keep her locks dark and
beautiful, and thousands of women
and men who value that even color,
that beautiful dark shade of hair
which is so attractive, use only this
old-tiIne recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for a
so cent bottle of ''Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides, it takes off
dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall
ing hair. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeths Sage
and Sulphur is that, besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives it an ap-
pearance of abundance.-Adv.

HILL CITY FEAST
First Annual Barbecue Meets
With Success.
Five Thousand Persons Out for
Celebration.

Hill City, Sept. 19.-The great free
barbecue rendered to the people Of Ora
ham county by the business men and
citizens of Hill City has come and
gone. AS Ed. Mullaney said: About
5000 people partook of the treat. It
looked as if this vast multitude of
people, neatly dressed and all of them
wearing broad smiles, would live %
years longer for being at the barbecue.
1t was the first thing of the kind held
in Hill City, and it was the biggest
event Of the kind Graham county has
ever known"
The schools were dismissed for the
day, and the parade of over 200 school
children, preceded by the home band,
every one of them cheering and wav-
ing flags, was a scene which made the
fathers and mothers who stood on the
sidewalks as they passed by think they
were living in a land of bountiful
crops and their children, with rosy
cheeks and covered with happy smiles,
were, too, living in the healthiest por-
ton of the state.
Dinner was served at noon in a
mammoth tent which had capacity of
| $500 people. The dinner consisted of
1000 pounds of beef 1000 buns, five
| bushels of beans, 5000 large pickles, 100
| pounds Of coffee-a donation from the
| Well-knOWn wholesale nrm OF Chase &
| Sanborn-and milk and cream-the do
nation from the farmers. D. c. Green
| wood was chairman of the general
| committee, assisted by a large number
| of sub committees. 1t seemed as if the
whole town supported the enterprise of
giving free barbecue both financially
and in active work.
There were amusements for all, in
Guiding basketball. baseball, young
girls races, chicken races, girls and
boys foot races, women's nail driving
contest, moving picture shows, relay
races and tug-of-war contests by teams
representing the four corners of Ora
ham county.
All the business houses were decor
ated and business was suspended for
the day. Even district court in session
here adjourned for the day. The day
was almost perfect, light showers in
the early morning laid the dust. The
people of Hill City are happy over their
first successful barbecue.
What happy lot of people the Hill
Cityites are said visitor who was
partaking of the barbecue dinner. He
was surprised to see a town of about
800 people supporting fine waterworks
and electric lighting system. The Wis
itor could see thrift in the town in
growing shade trees, shrubbery and
lawns, by means of her water system.
And so the first free barbecue here
has gone into history as the biggest
event of the kind in the history of Hill
City.

BIG ENROLMENT AT X. S. A. c.
Authorities Anticipate the Arrival OF
1900 Students Soon.

Manhattan, Kan, Sept. 19.-Never be-
fore have so many students f1ocked to
Manhattan to attend an opening of the
Kansas State Agricultural college. The
enrolment for the fall term which
opens tomorrow is going to be fully 40O
larger than one year ago.
The enrolment will reach 1900 &C
cording to the college authorities.
There are probably 700 enrolled who
have never attended the school and
while the opening will take place in the
morning, it is extremely doubtful if
classes will be heard before Monday.
Congressman Neeley of the Seventh
district is here to make the opening ad-

TEN CENT MOVIES AT HUTCH.
Managers i'm City of Salt and Sand
Blame H. G. of l..

Hutchinson, Kan, Sept. 19.-The
movies of Hutchinson are the first
to combine and raise the price of ad-
mission to ten cents. Beginning on
Monday of this week, patrons of the
moving picture shows here paid the
100 per cent increase.
This is the result of a meeting of all
the moving picture show managers
The increase applies only to night
shows. The reason given is that, like
the butcher shop, the grocery and the
dairy-the cost of living has increased
for the motion picture men.
This raise in price is a case of ne
cessity," Ben Lee said. I'VE would
have come to it sooner or later, and

FALLON SUGAR FACTORY

The 1913 Nevada Sugar Com
paoy campaign came to an end
Sunday afternoon so far as the slic-
Ing of beets was concerned. The
factory sugar making processes
were continued to be concluded
this evening. All the brown sugar
and syrups that could be refined
were put through the complete
process and nothing is to be un-
necessarily left that has a COM
mercial value.
There was actually sliced during
the campaign a little over 1000
tens of beets and there will be
realized therefrom when work is
concluded for the season this even
ing in round numbers, $4,000
bags of sugar, which it is cal
culated, will be marketed exclus-
lively among the loyal home folks
of this state.
The average sugar percentage
for the entire campaign was 1854,
and the purity, 1873, as compared
1876 per cent sugar and 81 per
cent purity last year. The cam
paign lasted 81 days and the aver
age tons sliced per day was 3O8 or
about three times as many as last
year. The shrinkage this year was
four per cent, as compared to II
last year. The amount of oil con-
sumed for fuel this campaign was
1000 barrels costing about $l.50
per barrel, One hundred and
thirty men were employed on an
average throughout the campaign
on the two 12.hour shifts and the
disbursement for labor was sub
stantial.
Altogether the campaign was a
successful one and rejects credit
upon the management. Receiver
l. H. Kent states that the factory
will operate again next season be-
yond a question of doubt and is
busy with the preparation of new
schedule If prices for bPets to gov
ern mex: season that will be to the
benefit of the farmers.
During the recently concluded
campaign there was no injury to an
employee of the factory or an un-
necessary delay, and the quality of
sugar is the best. In addition to
the revenue to be derived from
the manufactured product this
campaign has produced some 800
tons of molasses and $500 tons of
pulp, which are being fed to stock
and will return a gross revenue to
the factory in the neighborhood of
$40, 000.-Standard.
