Hair Made Beautiful

Beautiful hair, thick. huffy, lustreus and absolutely free from dandruff is not SC much a gift of nature as mat | ter of care and proper nourishment. Halr is like a plant 1t will not grow healthy and beautiful unless 1t has att teutfea and proper nutriment.
 Par4eian sage, daintiIy perfumed and easily applied, tones up and fnvigpr- ates the roots of inc hair, and fur nishee the necessary nourishment to not only save and beautify the hair, but also stimulate it to grow long. heavy, eeft. fluffy and radiant with life
 When used frequently and rubbed into the scalp 1t will simply work wonders. Just one application stops itching head, removes dandruff and cleanses the hair of all dust and ex- cessive oil,
 Since Parisian Sage. which can be obtained from The Lee & Osgood Go. or at any drug CT toilet counter, never disappotnts, 1t Is no longer necessary for any woman to be humllfated be- cause of thin. strealsy. faded, lifeless or unattractsve hair-and as you know, pretty hair, more than anything else, helps you to retain youthful appear ance.

FIGHTING vERMIN
J. w. KELLER.

With the approach of warm weather the poultryman's fight with insect pests begins. Lice and mites annually cause greater losses than all other eight weeks can multiply to 120.900. They may come on your plant from infested fowls. from sparrows, from trees. road dust, litter and numerous other ways. They reduce your fowls vitality, lessen egg production. inject your birds with other diseases, deduct from table qualities and interfere with breeding.
 The weapons wherewith to fight are many Perhaps the best direct treat ment consists in suspending fowl by it's legs and dusting thoroughly with a good reliable powdered lice killer. Air siaked lime which Is sometimes used has the disadvantage of being very ir- ritating particularly to the birds throats and lungs, tobacco dust if not combined with other substances is too sticky and odorous. The house. nests, roosts, etc, should all be thoroughly painted or sprayed with a good liquid irsecticide Care, should be taken Tn seeing that the liquid penetrates all cracks crevices and corners and the roosts should have particular atten- ton. This should be done frequently used and while good is extremely tr- ritating and rather dangerous both for birds and owner, Kerosene. gasoline and like articles should be avoided
 owing to danger from fire. Perhaps the safest articles of the kind. as wei as the most effective. are the coal tai diinfectants.
 How to Apply. There are several disinfectants or the market and they have the addi' tional value of disinfecting as well al
 killing vefrnin. They can be brushed en or mixed with water and applied with a sprayer. In warm weather thi sort of a solution can also be effec lively used to dip the fowls in, a sur' | way te kill the lice and mites.
 If yeu win use proper preventiv' | will have much trouble. Keep you house clean. dry and full of cunlight

THE NEW STRAWBERRY BED.
KATE sAINr MAUR

Like asparagus, strawberry beds should be established as soon as the family has settled in a country home: because 1t takes a year to get full ties to choose from Among the stand ards are the Marshall for first early. the Glen Mary for midseason and the Candy for late gathering. :.
 New beds may be started in the Tall or spring, whichever is the more con- yenient If the plants are set out in the early fall they will bear the fol- lowirg season, but If planting is de- layed until spring 1t will be year be- for the vines fruit.

 Strawberries are propagated from runners. These, taking root, develop individual crowns Nurserymen have of late years taken to sinking small pots filled with rich earth in the bed; {; then, by lifting the ends of the run ners on to the pots, the roots of the young plants develop within the pot and can later be removed without re- tarding the development. which. of course, greatly facilitates, the growth of the crown after 1t Is set out In us permanent position.
 Planting.
 Mark off rows four feet apart and set the plants two feet apart in the TOW. When the plants are received unpack and water copiously and leave in . shady place for twenty -four hours before setting out: If they are strong and healthy specimens growth wil start almost immediately, so go care fully through the rows in about two weeks time. when the plants will have commenced to throw out run ners. Four to each plant is enough and those are trained to root as nearly as possible before and behind and or each ide of the parent plant, which makes a solid row about twenty-sev en inches wide at the end of the growing season. The best way to in sure runners roofing is to press then close to the soil, holding them in place either with small stone or a handful of earth.

THE IMPORTANCE OF LEeuME
 CROPS.
JOHN HENDERSON.

Among various causes that have led to the abandonment of land once cultivated there is no doubt that the greatest single cause has been the fail ure to utilize legume crops. Without the rational use of legumes in a rota- ton the depletion of nitrogen and the consequent falling off in productiyely are certain to occur"
 The above statement is made by the department of agriculture in connec- ton with the use of legume crops in rotation methods of farming. 1t is rarely possible to keep up the supply of nitrogen from the humuS derived from nonleguminous plants,
 There are sixteen important le- guminous field crops in the United States-namely, red clover, alfalfa, cowpeas, dislike clover, crimson clover. white clover, soy beans, peanuts, Cam ada peas, hairy vetch, common vetch, velvet beans. Japan clover sweet clo- yer, bur clover and beggar weed.
 Tn comparatively few cases does it happen that one of these legumes can be used in place of another" contin- ues the statement. Cases in which there is a choice are red clover, alfal- ia, dislike clover and sweet clover: soy beans. peanuts and Japan clover; crim- son clover, hairy vetch and bur clover; velvet beans and beggar weed. The department has been frequently asked by farmers, where there is a choice of legumes adapted to the same pur- pose, which one adds the most nitro gen ,to she soil.
 Choosing legumes.
 ITO some extent this is determined ty the amount of nitrogen contained in the crop. Thus of 1000 pounds of green plants cowpeas contain on the average 3.7 pounds. common vetch Al pounds, Canada peas 4.3 pounds, Man. moth clover A pounds. crimson clo- yer 4.6 pounds, velvet beans 6.4 pounds, hairy vetch 5.5 pounds. sweet clover 5.S pounds. alsike clover 6.0 pounds, soy beans 6.b pounds, red clover 6.s pounds, alfalfa "A pounds and bur clover S5 pounds of nitrogen Additional advantages considered | more or less important in connection 1 with green manuring are based on the | root structure of the plant. Unques- l ticnably legumes with stout roots | which penetrate the soil to consider l able depths do have a somewhat sinli- | lar effect to a subsoiler and, further more, shallow rooted plants can not reach.
 investigations prove the high value | of the common legume crops, whether used in rotation or as green manure crops. Results obtained from theil use are far more striking in poor soil: than in rich soils"

GOOD AND BAD ROADS
Poor Roads Cost the Drive at Least
 Sis Per Horse.
E. o. MORTON

In carrying produce to market few people realize that it costs mere to have a bushel of wheat driven over a fairly good road than for a railroad to haul a ton of wheat the same dis-anCe, that our poor roads cost us a least s15 per annum for every horse we drive; that rood earth roads would save half the cost of houling and state roads more than three-quarters of it
 Some figures will show the traciive force (the live horse power) required to pull one ton on level roads of d.f- ferent descriptions, and it may be men toned that a horse produces hi" best efforts when drawing a load two and one- half miles per hour with trac- tive force of 150 pounds.

 The building and maintainiI of state highways is a duty of the state, and we can only see that money is weel expended and work properly done by putting in honest, efficient men, for our country roads are most important to us, and we who live in the country are responsible for them, as we have a voice in local affairs, and thus should see that they are graded. cared for and properly drained.
 Drainage Overlooked.
 Drainage, where the frost goes deep into the ground, is quite frequent ly overlooked Tile drains should be laid three or more feet below the road surface on each side of roadbed at the foot of the grade and parallel to it. If properly laid with 25 to inch tile and joints closed tightly the roads will not heave and become impassa ole. Moreover. they will dry out rapidly | after a rain if the open drains on the l sides are kept clear.
 Browning the road doesn't mean put ting on scrapers and throwing all the trash from the gutters into the mid dle, making a rough, water holding l crown but, on the contrary, making | the graded portion of the road wide enough to carry the travel and not | rounded up so as to be dangerous, yet 1 well above the overflow of storm wa ! ter, with sufficient grade to shed water ! quickly. Usually one or one and one l half inches to the foot is grade enough. That is. a roadbed twenty-four feet wide should be about eighteen inches | higher at the center than at the side. | Finally, repair promptly, for it is less ! expensive to have road caretakers ev- cry ten miles or so than to haul over a badly neglected roadbed or to re- i build every few years.
