The Best Treatment
forltchingS calps, Dan
druf and F alling Hair

To anay itching and irritation Of the scalp,
prevent dry, thin and falling hair, remove
crusts, scales and dandruff. and promote tho
growth and beauty Of the hair the following
special treatment is most effective agreeable
and economical. On retiring, comb the hair
out straight all around. then begin al the side
and make parting, gently rubbing Cuticura
ointment into the parting with bit OF soft
flannel heldover the end OF the finger Auont
additional partings about half an inch apart
until the whole scalp has been treated. the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura ointment on the
scalp skin rather than on the hair. Tho
next morning, shampoo with Cuticura soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may be
used as often as agreeable, but once or
twice month is generally sufficient for
this special treatment for women's hair Cuti-
cura soap and ointment sold everywhere.

SOIL SURVEY HELD UP
BY LACK OF FUNDS?

There is reason te believe that the
soil survey of Rock Island county, to
have been started under the auspices
of the Illinois College of Agriculture
last month, will be held up till the
present legislature appropriates the
necessary money. The survey, which
has covered about one-third of the
counties in the state, is continued
from year to year on sle money ap-
rTopriated by the various legislatures.
After county is surveyed it is a cou-
pie of years before the data can be-
published for general information.
With the present rapid advance Of
agricultural methods this survey is of
great importance TO this county, for
by means of it all types of soil pres.
ent are listed and the treatment they
need to bring them to maximum pro-
ductiveness may be learned II it is
true that the beginning of the work
here is held up by lack of an appro-
priation for 1t Rock Island county
farmers and others interested should
make an effort towards securing early
action by the legislature
