lF HAIR is TURNING
GRAY, USE SAGE TEA
Don't Look Old! Try Grandmother's
Recipe to Darker and Beauty
Gray. Faded, Lifeless Hair.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew Of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
auce, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for "Wyeths Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" 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 colol' and beauty
60 the hair and is splendid for dan
druf, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A wellknown druggist says every
body uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur,
because it darkens SO naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it 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 an
other application or two, it is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and abundant. Adv.

FIRE INSURANCE RATES
ARE TOO HIGH.
EkERN URGES RATE RULE
Losses In State Being Reduced more
Rapidly Than Premiums, is
Statement In His Annual
Report.

Madison. THAT the states should
regulate the rates charged for fire in
surance; that such rates should be
made by the companies in cooperation
through bureaus examined and super
vised by the state; that all insurance
agents should be qualified, and IL
censes subject to refusal or revOca
ton; that fire prevention work should
be pushed; and that cities should be
made Immediately fire-proof through
sprinkler protection, are among the
recommendations made in the report
of Commissioner of Insurance Herman
l.. Ekern, filed preliminary to the com
ing session of the legislature.
Summarizing the situation in Wis
consin with respect to fire insurance
the report states that:
The people of Wisconsin pay much
more than their share of the premiums
collected by stock fire insurance cor
porations throughout the United
States.
Losses in Wisconsin are being re,
duced more rapidly than the pre-
miums.
Wisconsin leads in fire prevention
work, promising still greater reduc
tons in losses.
Dividends. profits and gains have
constantly increased since 1906.
Continuance of present conditions
will yield excessive profits in the fu
ture
The fifteen large companies tran
sact half the business and take two
thirds of the dividends, profits and net
gain.
Fire prevention work, to be per
manent, must be recognized by re
duction of premiums. including eX
penses and profits, to keep pace with
| the reductions in losses.
The right of the state to regulate
| fire insurance rates has recently been
put beyond question by the United
| States supreme court.
States must supervise and regulate
| the making of rates.

Right Kind Tor Head OF parry Heros
be disposed of by mixing with roots,
ensilage or feed molasses. Good mo-
lasses can be purchased for less than
twenty cents gallon. It is worth 25
cents a gallon for its nutritive value
only. Successful dairymen consider
it profitable food, and where in
ferior roughage is to be disposed Of,
it's value Is hard to estimate.
Practical dairymen do not advise
the feeding of poor ensilage alone;
they prefer to have it mixed with hay
or good straw. This seems to mod
ify the flavor and causes the mixture
to be eaten with greater relish. This
mixture is especially advisable when
ensilage has been cut in an immature
stage Corn cut too early never makes
ensilage of the highest quality.

Splendid Dairy Type.

on wheat chaf4, because she does not
like it, not because she does not con-
slider it of high nutritive value and
digestibility.
With this point in view a dairyman
will have in his mind which feeds to
grow Grow the feeds most adaptable
to the farm which are most palatable,
writes w. w. Carrothers in Orchard
and Farm.
The most important consideration in
palatability is succulence. Succulence
is iuiciness. Get succulence into the
dairy cows ration and there will be
no trouble in having her eat enough.
Succulence in summer, when alfalfa
growing is in full swing, is easy. In
late fall and early winter when every
thing is dried up and we are waiting
for the rains, succulence is hard to get.
The silo solves this question. The
day is coming when no progressive
dairyman will be without silo to
supply winter feed. The cost Of
erecting q silo is now down to the
place where almost every man can
have one, nevertheless many of our
dairymen cannot afford enough silo
room to feed their herds the entire
fall and winter through.
A thousand pounds of roots is worth
a thousand pounds of ensilage for COW
feed. Roots cost more to produce
and are not as certain a crop. The
production per acre is also consider
ably less.
Another way to get succulence is
dampen straw with water and 20 per
cent of feed molasses. This is not
as good a method of getting palata-
bility as with ensilage or roots, but it
has it's advantages. Inferior hay can
