TODAY S BEAUTY
SUGGESTIONS

Face powder simply covers up an
u~nattractive complexion and leaves
no lasting benefits. Those who have
tried a simple spurmax face lotion
find it much better, as it removes
skin discolorations, such as freckles
and tan, and makes the skin smooth,
white and velvety, This lotion is
made by dissolving four ounces of
spurmaX in one-half pint hot water,
then adding two teaspoonfuls glyc-
erin. This complexion beautiier does
not rub off or show like powder, and
gives a more refined appearance. 1t
removes both Shininess and sallow-
ness, rapidly giving the skin a per
manent healthy, youthful appear
ancc.
An especially fine shampoo for
this weather can be had at trifling
expense by disSOlving a teaspoonful
Of canthroX in 4 cup of hot water.
Pour slowly on scalp and massage
hriskly. This creates a soothing,
cooling lather that dissolves and re-
move, all dardrurT, excess oil and

the hair takes on IA glossy richness Of

Government Specialist Has
Outlined Program For "Sqfe
Farming" In The Cotton Belt

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. ia
program of Safe Farming" for the
South is outlined in a circular which
the United States department of agri-
culture has sent to bankers, business
men and farmers in the cotton states.
The history Of agriculture in the
South, it has been said, has been one
of lean years and fat years. Short
crops and high prices have almost
Invariably been followed by big crops
and low prices and, in consequence,
the farmer has experienced much dis
tress, The increased attention which
has recently been given to supporting
the people upon the land has already
resulted in much good, but there is
some danger, it is pointed out that,
with the price of cotton rising, there
will be tendency for farmers to re-
turn to the old system of gambling on
cotton. If the people of the South
produced their own living, the circular
points out, it would steady the whole
system and keep the boat from rock
ing. The safety measures recommend
ed are the following:
Porduce a home garden for every
family on the farm, the year round
paying special attention to plot of
Irish or sweet potatoes sufficient to
supply the family with food of this
character. Where feasible, have
patch of sorghum or other cane to
produce syrup for the family.
Produce the corn necessary to sup
port all of the people on the farm and
the live stock, with absolutely safety.

No CHANCE FOR AN
OWL To Be A TIGER

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 13.-The idea OF
ali owl trying to masquerade as tiger
was offensive to the pathological and
geological instincts of the Atlanta de-
tective department, and struck them
yesterday as being so unreasonable
that they arrested the owl.
They also made a case against the
Owls club, or nest, or whatever it rs
called, and locked up the cashier and
bartender. The detectives maintain
that while in natural history there "a
a vast difference between an owl which
keeps its eyes open and tiger which
is sometimes blind, that in actual fact
in Atlanta the bird was acting entire
ly too much like the animal.

small grain to supplement the corn

Produce hay and forage from some
forage crop, sufficient to supply all of

gumes such as clover, cowpeas, velvet
beans, soy beans and alfalfa for the
production of hay and to enrich the
soil with nitrogen ana humus.
