Farmers Should Raise Snakes

Every farmer and every poul-

snakes as protection to his
crops and poultry, says Allen S.
Williams, secretary of the lnterna~

statement just issued. Williams
is a traveller and a lecturer and
snakes are his hobby. He has col
lected reptiles in every part of
the western Hemisphere. "The

Gratis, weas6ls and other rodents
destroy crops and are the natural
enemies of domestic fowls. Snakes
are the natural enemies of rodents.
Keep a few snakes to kill off the
young rodents and in time your
crops and chickens will be safe.
To the cereal crops alone in the
United States rodents caiise an
annual loss Of $100,000,000. If
snakes had even half a chance
the loss to farmers and poultry
raisers would be reduced to prac-
tically nothing. There are a doz,

PROTECTING GERMAN NAVY

 eve have great confidence in our navy. but when a fleet is destroyed it cannot be replaced in the course Of even a lone war. C0nse0uoutly we ought not to allow ourselves to be- come involved in a serious action in which we may succumb. Our biz do7t is meant to protect us under every circumstance and 1t will not risk battle on the open seas unless it can feel sure of victory
 The German admiral also stated that he considered the German suh- marine fleet "the stronccst in the world and that "this fleet had many surprises in store for the enemy in the future"

STATUS OF NEUTRAL
 SHIPS YET IN AIR

LONDON, Mar. 4.-Little light was thrown on the steps Great Britain will take to enforce her declared in- tention to stop trade to and from Germany. Developments on the de- claration hinge on the order-in-coun- cil which has been promised will be issued soon, but no definite date for the issuance has been announced On. flcials make 1t clear, with every op-
 portunity. that the making of re- prisals will be outlined in such a manner that further negotiations will not be precluded insofar as the declaration affects neutrals. Mean while foodstuhs from the United States, destined to neutral countries, continue to be delayed without ex' plantations given which satisfy the shippers. Chicago packers are much annoyed over theh delay at Falmouth since February 20 of the Norwegian steamer Vitalia. There are no pros pects of the release of the steamer. although 1t is said everything possi- ,ble has been done to comply with the British requirements.

The only sure way to get rid of dand- ruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy if entirely To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moistcn the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips
 Do this tonight, and by morning most fl not all of your dandruf will be gone. and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy. every single sign and trace of it, no mat fer how much dandruh you may have.
 You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once. and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous. glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.
 lf you want to preserve your hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair more quickly lt not only starves the hair and makes it iall out but it makes it stringy, straegly. dull dry. brittle and lifeless. and every one notices it. You can get liquid aryon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never tails to do the work.
