SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR
DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's
Recipe of Sage and Sulphur and
+ Nobody Will Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
iustre 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 it at home, which is
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 it does it
SO naturally and evenly. You dampen
q 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.

READY WITH AN EXPLANATION
Guide a Little Short on Ancient His
tory, but Proved Hard Man
to Corner.

The uniformed guide at an Eng
lish provincial art gallery deeply i'm
pressed party of excursionists by
the ease with which he reeled off the
names of the bronze and marble
busts
This is Dante, and this is Lycurgus,
and that one in the corner is Cali
gula," he explained. 'The marble
bust with the shaggy beard is Vir-
gill"
Pardon me-" an elderly bystander
interrupted, "but you are giving our
friends from the country misleading
information. The gentleman with the
beard is not Virgil, but Homer. This
other one is Virgil"
The guide recognized that his repu-
tation was at stake, and turned Oh the
daring bystander.
See here, Mr.. Clever, you think
you know it all, but you've backed the
wrong boss this time" he retorted.
II was here when the busts was made,
and the sculptor-a clever man, but
rather fond of his glass--got drunk
one day, and chiseled 'Omer's whis-
kers on poor old Virgil's chin!"
Then the bystanders gasped, and
the guide went up with bound in the
general estimation.

its circuit, and some day will be COM
pleted so as to link all of the princi-
pal towns, which are situated on the
coast. The fare for the motor ride
is eight dollars, and it gives a first
rate opportunity of seeing the inland
vegetation of Porto Rico.
There are forty rivers in Porto Rico,
not counting smaller streams, and it's
well-watered soil is tremendously pro-
life. On every hand one sees sugar
plantations, tobacco fields and coffee
growing on wholesale scale. Indeed,
there is very little unoccupied land on
the island. Even the poor people cling
to their holdings, realizing the wealth
and the benefits constantly accruing
to them in the way of increased pro-
duction from the educational efforts OF
the agriculture station at Mayaguez.
The United States government, how
ever, has set aside $4,000 acres in the
rugged mountainous region of the east
ern section as a forest preserve. This
tropical wilderness is densely clothed
with verdure, bits of it having never
been explored, it is said, and embraces
in it's extent the cloudtipped cone OF
Ell Yunque, previously alluded to.
Accents of this mountain are more
difficult than might be supposed,
owing to the virgin condition Of its for
ests, but they are we'll worth while,
especially if the day be clear. Upon
such occasions one may view the en-
tire island and glimpse the neighbor-
ing islands of Culebra and Vieques.
Another point of interest, famed for its
magnificent view, is the Aibonito pass,
the summit Of mountains crossed by
the Military road. One pauses here
for few moments to view through
the narrow gap the Caribbean on one
hand and the Atlantic on the other.

(By NJ. N. EDGERTON)
The farm garden in evidence on
many farms is not worthy the name
A true concept of the term garden
implies luxuriance in vegetables and
fruit-production. To be complete, it
should include every variety of vege-
table and fruit required to meet the
needs of complete family dietary
A few rows of potatoes, sweet corn
and cabbage will not meet the needs
of a family normally constituted. The
list should include every vegetable any
member of the family may be partial
to, and every sort of fruit as well.
To facilitate the work of caring for
the garden rows should be as long
as possible to make homework with
vegetables possible and profitable.
The ground should be we'll drained.
This will make It possible to fit the
garden spot before grain seeding be-
gins, as the farmer bent on getting
his grain crop into the ground at the
earliest possible moment, has little in
clination to delay operations just to
make provision for a little garden
sass"
To his mind, the grain crops are of
much greater Importance. This is
true, but it is also true that half
day spent in fitting a piece of land
for the garden will never be missed.
The greatest obstacle to overcome is
the Discrimination to ''get at it.
Most men detest a puttering job.
This is an additional reason why the

BRONZE GRASS MADE
GOOD FORAGE CROP
Seed Analyst at Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station Makes a
Valuable Discovery.

Robert G. Dahlberg, seed analyst at
the agricultural experiment station
University of Minnesota, has solved
an agricultural problem of great i'm
portance to farmers.
Bronze grass is a valuable forage in
Minnesota, but on account Of the fact
that with bronze grass seed was often
found quack grass seed, and other
seeds of very similar nature which
could not be distinguished from quack
grass seed, farmers quite generally
ceased to plant bronze grass.
Mr.. Dahlbergs discovery makes it
possible to distinguish quack grass
from kindred grass seeds less harmful.
Consequently bronze grass seed may
be tested at the Minnesota seed lab
oratory, university farm, ST. Paul,
without danger of it's being condemned
for appearing to contain quack grass
seed, when in reality it may have a
mixture of harmless kindred seeds
only, such as western wheat grass and
slender wheat grass.
Mr. Dahlberg's Identification of the
seeds of quack grass, western wheat
grass and slender wheat grass was
originally published by the Journal of
Agricultural Research, and has now
been reprinted in separate form. The
reprint is valuable to scientists, but
the publication Of the treatise has a
value to the farmer because it will
serve as guide to seed laboratories
in testing bronze grass seed and pre-
vent the possibility of condemning
such seed because of the possible
presence of quack grass when the seed
may contain only western wheat
grass or slender wheat grass.

sow CLEAN, HEAVY
SEED FOR DAT CROP
Complete Fertilizer Should Be
Drilled With Scholarly
Work Is important.

Oats make most of their growth
when the soil is cool and moist; SOW
just as soon as the ground is dry
enough to work.
The field should be plowed late in
the fall and in the spring all that will
be needed is two good workings with
the spring-tooth harrow to fit the
land for seeding Sow only clean,
heavy seed; light, choppy seed is
worthless. Trust no lightweight seed;
buy northern-grown seed, even if it
should cost two dollars per bushel.
1t has been our custom for some
years to buy Canadian or Maine
grown oats every second year for SOW
ing, says a writer in Baltimore Ameri-
can. These oats will weigh 36 to 40
pounds to the bushel, and, having
strong vitality, when sown early on
good, mellow, well prepared land, so
to 70 bushels of oats and one and
cne-half tons of bright straw may be
grown to the acre. The straw will
pay for the fertilizer used. Drill two
Uu5AciS VI Odto duu OVU pOuuOS VI a
complete animal bone fertilizer to the
acre.
A complete fertilizer should always
be drilled in with the seed; the crop
will ripen early, the straw being stout
and stiff will stand firm and the grain
will ripen evenly and will be free
from smut head. AS soon as the
ground is dry enough to crumble, start
the harrow and follow with the drill.
BY this plan you can seed all the
land that is narrowed the same day.
Early seeding is most important, as
it means a profitable yield in almost
every instance.
Wherever wheat can be proftably
grown it will pay better to drill the
corn ground to wheat than it will be
to seed the same land to oats. Oats
is one of the best summer grains to
feed the horses and it will pay almost
every farmer to drill two or three
acres of land to oats to furnish the
summer grain needed for the farm
teams.

farm garden is much-neglected
proposition.
Not only is there delay and neglect
in the matter of fitting the ground
and getting the crops in but even
where the planting of the seeds and
setting Of the plants is accomplished,
there is neglect in caring for the
crops, which must result in Indifferent
success, or even worse, a garden over
grown with weeds.
This is the result too often in evil
dence on the average farm garden in
the late summer and autumn time.
The cause is not in the great amount
of work required in caring for the
garden but in getting at it at the
proper time. Weeds are easily de-
stroyed while at the terminating
stage.
A light stirring of the surface soil
close to the row of plants does the
business, which if delayed may mean
hours of disagreeable, back-breaking
work cutting weeds later on in the
season.
A good garden is luxury or a ne
cessity, as determined by the point
of view taken.
Some take advantage of every OPP
portunity of enjoying the good things
of life that come their way while 9th
ers appear to be content with little.
At least there seems to be no willing
ness to put forth the effort that may
be required to obtain the best things
in life.

Rattle Of Btenhein,

The Nibel river where it falls into
the Danube is divided into several
branches, with marshy ground be-
tween, and the French at the battle
of Blenheim made it their left flank.
The attack on the village had failed
and Marlborough risked the crossing
of this marshy stream, although the
whitening fire of the French artillery
and the assaults moved down his men
like corn. But he not only succeeded
in getting his own infantry and cav
airy across, but routed the enemy
when he had done so. 1t is recorded
that the river literally ran blood.
