Keep up the ChiHCh Bug Fight.

The farmers of Missouri while busy
fighting army worms and replanting
where they have ruined crops, should
not lose sight of the fact tlat t.is is
ideal chinch bug weather and where
old bugs were abundant ia wheat
fields during MAY there is DANGER
that their young will move into
other crops when the wheat is ripe
and cut The past month has been
a busy one fF most Missouri farm
ers and the month of June threatens
to be one equally as strenuous es-
pacialIy where the chinch bug re-
quires attention.
Comparatively few inquiries are
being received by the Missouri col
leee of agriculture just nOw but
with the rush of other work, farmers
are liable II overlook this pest. 1t
is too late to fight the chnch bug
after il has left the wheat fields and
gone to 0tler crops Every farmer
should examine bis wheat and il the
young red ani black bugs are abun-
dant he should plan to fight the pest
when it starts to migrate between
now and the last OF the month.
Most farmers are familiar with
the dust and chemical barriers. One
or more parallel bitches in which a
log is dragged or a plowed strip
thoroughly worked will keep the
bugs back when II is dry In rainy
weather dust barriers are impo sible
so a supply Of tar, road oil, creoSote
or cr'lde corbohc acid should be on
hand. Either of these chemicals
when used to form a line will help
to keep the bugs back and protect
crops,
Last year the chinch bug seeming
ly reached its climax as regards
abundance and injury and ii is not
likely to do nearly so much injury
this year though we must be ready
for it should it threaten cultivated
crops this month. 1t is hoped that
the weather will favor the spread of
the chinch bug disease so that it,
with mans help may completely
stamp out the pest this summer.
The Missouri college of agriculture
is ready to answer all inquiries and
to give such additional help as it
can. Address the Entomoloeist.

DARKEN GRAY, FADED HAIR
WITH SAGE TEA.

Grandmother kept her hair beau
tifully darkened, glossy and abund-
ant with a brew of Sage Tea and
Sulphur. Whenever her hair fell out
or took on that dull, faded or streak
ed appearance, this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect. BY
asking at any drug store for "Wyeths
Sage and Sulphur Compound you
will get a large bottle of this old
time recipe, ready to use. for about
so cents. This simple mixture can be
depended upon to restore natural col
or and beauty to the hair, and is
splendid for dandfuff, dry itchy
scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur, because It darkens 80 nat
urally and evenly that nobody can
tell 1t has been applied-it's so easy
to use, too. You simply dampen
comb or soft brush and draw It
through your hair, taking one strand
at time. BY morning the gray hair
disappears, after another application
or two It Is restored to its natural
color and looks glossy soft and
abundant.
