 IF you could actually see difference l of two or three inches in the growth of your hair in few weeks time and detect superb improvement in Its Vlgor and silky appearance you would perhaps wonder whether miracle had not been suddenly performed. Changes of this kind are so infrequent that most women do not believe them possible, yet the fact remains that if the proper means are employed they are more likely to oc- cur than not. The proper means, Of course. are the controlling factor. Mere hair toncs which are commonly sold in prepared form and ready to use, are so often weak in power and in ingred jents that it is remarkable how many of them are sold at all If you would

BUTLER

The wholesale house of Butler
Brothers is joined with other con-
Germs in plan to break the advance
of wOrkingmen's cooperative stores.
These wholesale houses are now
settling down to a business policy of
selling no goods of any kind at any
prices to any cooperative stores.
They have come to this policy
through the cries for help and the
threats of boycott coming to them
from retailers in Illinois towns.
The retailers have seen trade and
profits slipping away from them be-
cause of the success of cooperative
stores. So now the retailers and
wholesalers are perfecting an Organi-
zation with a deliberate plan for
strangling the co-Operatives.
John H. Walker, president Of the
Illinois Federation of Labor, says
there are letters and checks which
prove that Butler Brothers and other
concerns have reached an under
standing and the game Of squeezing
the life out of the cO-Operatives is on.
The Schram City store, cO-Opera-
tive run by miners, sent an order
for S85 worth of goods to Butler
Brothers. The check for $85 was re-
turned by Butler Brothers with let
ter stating no goods can be sold by
that house to the SchTam City store.
T. R. Owens, manager of the CO.
operative store at Frankfort, has
written Walker that practically every
large wholesale house in Chicago
now refuses to sell to any cO-opera-
tive store.
Information comes to us from re-
liable sources" said Walker, that
travelling statesmen from wholesale
houses are threatened with boycott
by local merchants if they sell stocks
of goods to co-operatives. In fact,
it has become so common for travel
ing statesmen to meet this intimida-

that the local grocers should take
this course. What we can't under
stand is by what right the big whole
sale houses discriminate against our
stores. We offer to pay cash. And
they tell us to go to the devil. They
don't want our money nor the profits
to be made off us.
"The local grocer sees the cooper
ative store cutting down his profits.
He has a right to tell the travelling
salesman, If you sell goods to that
new dump over there l will not buy
from YOU What l can't understand
is how a house like Butler Brothers,
incorporated under the laws of Hi
nois, has a right to refuse Illinois cit
liens the right of paying money in
exchange for goods bought in whole
sale quantities.
The miners now have 20 cooper
ative stores, besides three cooper.
ative purchasing clubs. Outside of
these miners stores there are over
80 other cooperative stores in Hi
nois. New ones are in process of or
ganization."
Walker said the Universal Trading
& Supply Co., 35th and Morgan sts.,
is building a large business in the
selling of food, supplies, clothing and
dry goods to farmers at retail and
the cooperative stores at wholesale.
The company is handling full line
of union label goods and recognizes
organized labor among its employees.

The settlers on the plains have great
ly increased their paintings Of millet
this summer and it is not all in yet.
Millet is a warm weather plant and con-
sequently it may be sown up until the
middle Of July with reasonable assur-
ance that it will produce pretty good
hay crop. AS the seed is small it is alb
solutely necessary to have the ground
so well prepared that a uniform cover
ing of the seed may be made and there
are few crops in the whole list where a
good seed bed preparation will pay bet
ter than in the case of millet. If the land
is very rich the crop will likely grow
quite rank and in that case thick seeding
is necessary in order to keep the stems
fine and make the hay as palatabe as
possible. On rich land it is not an un-
usual thing to get yield of three to
even four tons of cured millet hay the
ere, and as the prospect for satisfac-
tory hay crop this year is of the best at
the present time it will not be surprising
if the maximum tonnage will be return

Fresh Meat for a Community

How to keep himself supplied with
fresh meat during the summer time is
a problem that often confronts the
farmer who has no system of cold stor-
age. He is usually too busy to take
what he cannot use of a freshly killed
beef to market and his household is not
large enough to use all of the meat be-
fore it spoils.
How to overcome this has been very
ably handled by the Farm, Stock and
Home in an article entitled Farmers
Cooperative Beef Rings. This states
that from to 16 farmers make an ideal
number for the forming of beef ring.
A beef is killed each week and.each
member of the organization is allowed
to select the part he desires, it being
charged up to him accordingly. When
a beef animal is furnished by member
he is credited with that amount of meat
minus what he takes out for his own
use. At the end of the warm season
settlement is made and there is usually
few cents difference in the debts of
each member.
The man who furnishes a beef each
week is allowed the heart, liver, hide,
lower part of the legs, etc.
According to this farm paper it has
been found to be the means of solving
the fresh meat supply for the summer
time. Grail r. Fuller, Colo. Agricultu-
