There was an unusually good crop

was garnered. In Berlin, women have

Valuable Discovery in
Complexion Beautifier

Because Of its peculiar power OF alb
sorption. also because it serves every
emollient purpose, ordinary mercolized
wax is perhaps the most valuable com
plexion beautifier discovered within re-
cent years. If one uses this she needs
no toilet cream Some use powder
afterward. but this is not necessary.
This rule for applying mercolized wax
has been found very satisfactory: Wash
the face with warm water. driving
lightly. Before thoroughly dry, anoint
face and neck with the wax but don't
rub IL in. The favorite way is to use
before retiring. allowing Il to remain
on all night and washing it off in the
morning with warm water. All drug
gists have this wax in original one
ounce packages.
For the removal Of a wrinkled or
flabby condition there's nothing better
than to battle the face in a solution
made by dissolving i ounce powdered
saN0lite in IL pint witch hazel. Ben
eficiaI results are quickly noticeable

A precedent of long standing has
been waived by officials Of the exposi-
ton and all exhibits good enough to
win sweepstakes prizes will be re-
turned to the owners. Last year tho
sweepstakes samples were retained by
the association for exhibition pur-
poses. This is the rule followed by
most corn shows in the country. It
Is believed, however, that the best ex-
hibits Of corn at the EXPOSITION
should be planted, so as to assist the
owner to produce an even better type
of corn than the original samples.
It is not known how much alfalfa
will be shown at Benson. Last year
the alfalfa show at Morris was not 4
large one, as little alfalfa was being
produced in West Central Minnesota.
This year, however, over 1900 farm
ers purchased seed through the devel-
opment association, and the crops con-
ditions have been so excellent that
there may be quite bit of alfalfa dis
played. The county unit will not be
observed in the exhibition Of alfalfa.
