Puck favored the proposed regime,
And for the proposition led
But Buck, objecting to the scheme,
Looked earnestly at Puck and said:
IF we are wise and good enough
To govern, we don't need the state;
If we are ignorant and rough,
We then need a protectorate.

DARKEN "
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger! Use Grand.
mothers recipe Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re.
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever
her hair fell out or took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this SIM
pie mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing ut home is mr,ssy and
out.of.datc. Nowadays, by asking, at
any drug store for a so cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy," You will get this famous old
recipe which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair and is splendid for dandruf. dry,
feverisb, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well.known downtown druggist says
it =darkens the hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen q sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair. taking one strand at
q time. BY morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application or
two, it becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and abundant.

GROWING EXPERIMENTS
CARRIED ON At farm STATIONS

els, of these II bushels were market
able; large potatoes cut 8 eye pieces,
gave a total yield of l07 bushels, with
S9.7 bushels marketable; large pota-
toes cut. to n eye pieces. yielded
1909 bushels. Or these 1865 were
marketable. In 1913 the yield from
ono eye pieces was 1925 bushels,
with 233.3 bushels of marketable.
These were all planted May 18th. in
hills Ia 10 16 inches apart and 3 IL
inches deep on land that was in grain
the year before.
At the Edgeley s%ub-station the re-
suits Of the experiment in cutting pc.
tatoes were different from those at
Williston. The following resulls are
averages for four years and give the
yield of marketable bushels: Large
whole potatoes planted 2 feet apart
yielded 1866 bushels; small whole
potatoes planted 2 feet apart in row
.04.72 bushels; half potatoes, 2 feet
apart in row., 1854 bushels; two eye
pieces two feet apart. $3.50 bushels,
and when one eye pieces were plant.
ed 2 feet apart the yield was 1874
bushels. IL F..' r.:l =
At the Dickinson sub-station the
yield in 1910 from planting*whole pc.
tatOes was 1923 bushels, but it re.
quired 76.6 bushels for seed. The
yield from planting small whole tu-
hcrs was $50 bushels and it required
.o.G bushels for seed. When the pc.
tatoes were cut it required but 9.4
bushels Of seed and the. yield was
ll5.7 bushels. In case seed potatoes
are cheap it may pay to use the large
potatoes. -
At Wlliston the best yields were
secured from potatoes planted II
inches apart in 3 feet rows. The 9TH
er distances tried were IS inches,
"a inches and 80 inches. This agrees
with the results, secured at Edgeley.
An Investigation as to the best dates
for planting potatoes at Williston
gives the following averages for 3
years: April 20, average yield of
marketable potatoes, 1868 bushels;
May 13. 1913 bushels, and 500 bush.
els for the May 20 planting.
tScab is one of the common potato
diseases that can be eliminated by
treating the seed and planting on
land not infested with scab. The
scab lives in the soil and can infect
the potato in this way. Such land
should be put to other, crops for a
few years. to starve out the potato
scah. II there is any scab on the 20,
tato seed il will spread to the tubers
produced in that hill. The treat
mcnt for killing scab on seed pota.
toes is as follows: Soak the seed
before being cut for one and a half
hours in a solution Of corrosive sub.
Innate, at the rate of one ounce to
six gallons of water. This is a dead,
iy poison, so care needs 10 be taken
in handling it. The profit in potato
growing comes partly from the in.
creased grain Yields on land that has
grown potatoes.
