WHY Society Women Wash

they wish to obtain the greatest pos

are not using anything harmful. The
thousands who have found that in
washing the hair it is never wise to
use a makeshift but is always advis-
able to use a preparation made for
shampooing only, say they get the
best results from II simple home
made canthrox mixture. You can
enjoy this, the best that is known,

Efosta "a secure Adoption By Foreign
Exchangcs Of Onicial American

4 Washinstop. March ai.--rhe estab-
|iishment under the terms OF tho
united States Cotton Futures Act OF
ofhciai cotton standards Tor the Unit
ed States has been accompanied by
ep earnest effort 70 secure the adop-
tien Of these standards by the cotton
trade in Europe az well a. In this
country. A brief history Of this move
ment Is contained In Service and Reg
ulatory Announcement No. OF the
once OF Markets Of the United states
Department of Agriculture. which has
just been publlshed.
Although the attempt to secure the
adoption abroad Of the new American
oficlal standards was not. altogether
successful. this new publication shows
that much has been accomplished To-
ward bringing about uniformity Of
standards. For various reasons tho
Liverpool Cotton Association did not
see fit to adopt the American oficial
standards. bps has revised its stand
ard to q form which Is said to accord
at least IN value with the American
standards and which replace by a
single set the three sets formerly In
use, representing respectively up
land. gulf and Texas cotton.
This triple standard seems to have
|srown up In Liverpool between 1898
and 1919. 1t seems also to have been
the result Of process of evolution
caused by the increasing necessities
OF the cotton trade and was built up
from time to timo by the addition Of
types or boxes of standards.
When the United Statcs Cotton Fu-
lures Act was passed and experts be-
gan the work Of preparing the new
standards required. the desirability
OF securing universal adoption for
the new standards was. recognized.
For reasons given In detail In Ser
vice and Regulatory Announcements
No. z. however. 1t was fou '',de-
sirable to adopt the Liverpool. .tand-
ards for upland cotton. In order,
therefore. to explain the proposed
American standards and to urge their
adoption In England. Germany and
Franco. two members of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture visited Europe in
the fall OF 1914.
! A number OF conferences with rep
rcsentatives Of the Liverpool Cotton
Association were held and 1t seemed
ut one time probable that this asso.
ciation would adopt the American
standards. one or two minor changes
having been made at their request
The association, however. was ura.
willing to take definite action until
March I. 1916. 1t was impossible un,
der the law for the American govern
ment to defer until that date tn,
promulgation OF the American stand
ards and accordingly no agreement OF
standards with Liverpool was reach
ed.
On December rs, 1914, the officia
cottoh standards Of tho United states
