SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandna's
Recipe Of Sage and Sulphur and
Nobody VIII Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make 1t at home, which ia
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy" You will get a
large bottle for about so cents. Every.
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair, as 1t does ID
80 naturally and evenly. You dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

TO KEEP ENSlLAGE
IN COLD WEATHER
Blanket or Old Carpet Spread
Over Top Retains Heat and
Keeps Out Cold.

During the extreme cold weather
last winter many complaints we're
made by farmers ON account of the
ensilage freezing in their silos. Some
of the silos had a ring of frozen en-
sllage a foot or more thick and sew
eral feet high all around the inside.
Then, when they wanted to remove a
door, they had to pick the ensilage
away, which was quite a job.
To overcome this freezing, measures
must be taken as soon as the frost
appears in the silo. By digging the
ensilage away from the walls and
piling it in the center helps to some
extent, as there is more heat in the
center. When extreme winter sets in
it is a good plan TO keep the ensilage
lower at the walls and throw all froz-
en- ensilage in the center. Then spread
thick blanket or old carpet over the
top.
This covering retains tho heat and
keeps out the cold air, thus 1uaking II
much nicer to feed.

,(By H. E. DvORACHEK. Colorado Ag-
ricultural College)
Cement is coming to be used more
and more for construction work on
the farm. This is only in keeping with
progress made in concrete construc-
ton along other lines. A great many
objections are made to concrete as a
suitable material for silo construction.
Besides a number of others, the fol-
lowing are some of the most common:
Concrete walls allow mold and decay
around the walls, are affected by the
acid of silage, and they cannot be
built to keep them from cracking and
thus leak air. Observation of concrete
and stave silos standing side by side
shows that the freezing is no greater
in one than the other. BY coating the
walls with wash of neat cement or
tar pitch they can be made perfectly
air, water and acid proof. If properly

MILK SHED IS OF
GREAT IMPORTANCE
Compartment of Some Kind to
Protect Cows Should Be
Erected by Dairymen.
(By M. A. COvERDELL.)

Every farmer should build a small
shed or compartment of some kind in
which to stand the COWS at milking
time. The nearer the barn the better.
1t should be we'll ventilated in the
summer and made warm in the winter
months by setting up fodder around it
or lining it with building paper or roof
ing material.
The shed may be any size desired,
but ample room for one cow is all that
is necessary. Have nails arranged on
the wall for hanging milk pals in
places of safety while the cows are
being led to and from the shed.
If there are any sIfe teats, caked
udders, or other ailments to be treated,
the milk shed offers a safe place in
which to do it quickly, and any trouble
with the animals in hand will cause
no disturbance among the other men,
bers of the herd. Spraying solution
is also more easily applied in the shed
than anywhere else.
Where one feeds the COWS at milk
ing time. the milk shed removes the
difficulty of feeding the COW that is
being MIXED in sight of the other ami
mails
Some COWS will fret and worry away
a large portion of their milk if an
other cow is being fed in sight or hear
ing of them. Then, feeding the COW
in the milk shed makes it unnecessary
to use so many feed troughs.
BY keeping it well cleaned out, and
properly drained, the milk shed is
always ready to lead the COW into and
milk under agreeable and sanitary
conditions. If it be in the summer
time, the shed may be darkened and
the pesky flies thus gotten rid of,
which means a lot of solid comfort
to the COW and the mixer, as we'll
as a greater amount of milk.
With proper ventilation, such shed
is also much cooler than the swelter-
ing dairy barn, where the animals
breath, combined with the heat of
their bodies, contributes literally to-
ward the maintenance of a high tenn
perature.

pleased SO long as you were in con-

do as | say or I'll take over not only
the selling end, but the manufacture

Darbey went back to Connecticut q
much depressed man. He was bitter
and hard against Henry. But he saw
no way out of his difficulty. He set
tied down to his factory work. He
plodded along ten or twelve hours a
day and tried to conform himself to
the new conditions. When he need
ed money he advised Henry. That
gentleman made advances. Occasion
ally Henry paid visit to the plant
and looked things over. He tried to
be kindly and gracious, but Darbey
was not to be deceived. He knew
Henry was not satisfied and he also
knew the business was not improving
After year or so Henry did not re-
spond to money calls so promptly as
before. When he did send money a.
complaining letter accompanied the
check. The cost of production was
too high, he insisted. Darbey must
cut down expenses. Henry could not
meet competition. Darbey got rid of
6. man here and there, saved every
penny he could for the company and
watched every item of expenditure
closely. He reported all these things
to Henry and at the same time point
ed out that the heaviest load that the
company had to bear was that fright
full 20 per cent selling cost that Henry
exacted. Henry's replies on this
score were sharp. He made it plain
to Mr.. Darbey that if Mr. Darbey
would attend to the manufacturing
end he would have plenty to do 1t
was not for Darbey to criticize.
His Scheme Discovered.
One day most unusual thing hap:
pened. A silverware dealer in a
neighboring town called Darbey up
on the phone. He wanted gross of
certain class of goods, and in de-
scribing the articles he mentioned the
price per dozen, $575. That particu-
lar class of goods did not sell at that

Then he told of the incident of that
dealer who telephoned the order to
the factory instead of to the selling
agent-the order for the $5.75 goods.
Next he told of what he had learned
from statesmen of the Henry concern.
Il placed all this evidence in the
hands of one of my young friends, a

The Darbey Manufacturing concern
is doing business today. It is not a

any longer. It's capitalization is
$3.50, 900. Mr.. Henry is not among the

NITRATE OF SODA
AS A FERTILIZER
Top Dressing on Old Meadow Is
Almost Certain to Show
Marked Results.

On an old meadow which has not
been properly fortified, a top dress
ing of nitrate of soda is almost GER
tain to show very marked results. The
farmer is likely to be so enthusiastic
over the showing made that he at
once concludes that nitrogen is the
one factor needed to make his hay
crop profitable one. Right here lies
the danger. While the first applica-
ton of nitrate of soda may show these
marked results, it is not by any means
safe to conclude that nitrogen is the
only element of fertility needed.
Repeated applications of nitrate of
soda may soon result in no apparent
benefit and even result in a final con-
dition worse than the original condi-
ton. The first application of nitrate
OF soda shows such marked results be-
cause there is a marked deficiency of
nitrogen in the soil; but there is suf-
ticient of the other fertilizing ele-
ments, particularly phosphorus and
potassium, to balance the nitrogen
used.
The increased crop yields from the
use of nitrate of soda make an i'm
creased drain upon the available phos-
phorus and potassium of the soil. No
effort being made to replace these ele
ments thus removed the time very
soon comes when no response is re-
ceived from the application of nitrate
of soda because the phosphoric acid
and potash have been depleted, or,
in other words, are the limiting fac
tors.
AS a rule, where nitrate of soda is
used as fertilizer it is a safe princi-
pie to use in connection with it some
form of phosphorus and potassium,
having in mind permanent results
rather than temporary increase due
to the nitrate of soda

terial they should not crack any more
than does other concrete work. There
have been failures in all types of silos,
but it is safe to say that the percent
age of failures is less in concrete silos
than in most other types. That they
are a success has been demonstrated
beyond doubt by those built not only
in this state but other states as we'll

Alfalfa is a splendid horse feed, but

Because of its palatability, mature
horses are likely to eat too much al

price, but much below, and Darbey
thought the dealer had made a mis-
take. The dealer said he had not;
that was the price he had been paying.
Darbey told him that all the product
of the factory was handled through
Mr.. Henry in New York and he would
wire him to forward the goods at once,
but meanwhile he, Darbey, would like
to see the dealer and he would go to
the dealers town that afternoon to
have a personal conversation with
him. The dealer said he would be glad
to see him. Darbey made the visit
He had a confidential chat with the
dealer and the dealer showed to him
the bills he had from Henry. The
goods were sold to the dealers for
1915. The return made by Henry to
the Darbey Manufacturing company
was SO dozen. Darbey got all those
bills from the dealer and took them
home with him.
A little later he met one of the
former statesmen of Mr.. Henry. The
salesman was none too we'll disposed
toward Henry. When Darbey, in the
course of discussion about business,
remarked that things were going
none too we'll, the salesman blurted
out the statement that they couldn't
go we'll; that Henry was selling the
Darbey product only to such dealers
as would pay prices much above those
- al. %L14
ly an agent for the trust and handling
a lot of the trusts goods.
Before those two men parted, Oar
hey got a lot of details of the prices
at which that man acting for Henry
had sold the Darbey products. The
man gave names, dates and figures.
Darbey made a memorandum OF each
and every item.
Darbey Had Whip Hand.
Thereafter, when Mr.. Henry, as
usual, complained about the factory
costs and insisted upon further and
further economies. Darbey very blunt
ly declared he could not make the
stuff any cheaper. He had cut things
down to the bone. He told Mr.. Henry
he thought his criticisms were unwar-
ranted. The real economies ought to
be introduced in the selling end.
This brought some sharp retorts
from the New York office. and sharper
ones from the Connecticut end. Ar.
