information gathered from every
available source leads US to the posi-
tive opinion that Illinois will be car
ried for the Democratic national and
state tickets by unprecedented ma
jorities. In our judgment, Pres. Will
son will carry the state by 100000 at
least. GOV. Duuu6 VIII De reelected
along with the entire state ticket by
a majority ranging from $4,000 to
$4,000.
BY F. E. Sterling,
Chairman Republican State Com.
Latest reports from downstate and
Cook county confirm my estimate
that Hughes will carry Illinois by
10000. Wilson only carried the
state in 1912 by 1880, and that with
the Republican party divided. The
united vote of Taft and Roosevelt
gave them a plurality Of 100000 over
Wilson. Illinois is ready for the cleo
ton and the whole state ticket will
win.

Cut Your Store Bill
Down One Half

Tens of thousands of farmers as well as
town and city folks cut down their store
bills one-half last year and saved money
in spite of generally short crops and re-
duced wages.
Absolutely millions of dollars were
saved and countless families lived better
than ever before in the face of the cotton
crisis and general business depression.
How were these burdensome store bills
cut down? BY the real money-saving
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.

s>]..aI3E: TEA DARKENS
HAIR To ANY SHADE
Don't stay gray! Here's q simple
recipe that anybody can apply
with a hair brush.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to it's natural
color dates back to grandmother's time.
She used it to keep her hair beautifully
dark. glossy and abundant. Whenever
her hair fell out or took ON that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this sim
pie mixture was applied with wonderful
effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a so cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound, you viii get this famous old
recipe which "an be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty TO the
hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry,
feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A well-known downtown druggist says
it darkens the hair so naturally aud
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied. You simply dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one strand at
q time. BY morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application or
two, it becomes beautifully dark, glossy.
soft and abundant.

esting and instructive. Another fea
ture of the institute was the invi-
tation extended to anyone to
ask any question with which he was
not familiar and this brought out
and developed into an interesting
discussion which was participated in
by many settlers. The institute
workers are not merely book farm
ers' as some like to style them,
each one Of them being a practical
and experienced farmer, therefore
their addresses were much more val
liable as they dealt with actual ex-
periences.
Several local addresses were heard
Tuesday evening, among them one
by H. c. Busse, proving very inter
esting to the new settler as it dealt
with Chow to clear land in hard
wood country" On Wednesday, two
subjects that had previously been
taken up were continued, ''The pure
bred sire problem" and Potato dis
eases and how to cure them" Mr..
Clark handled the sire question and
Mr.. Hicks the potato subject. The
object of these topics were to &C
tually secure pure bred sire for
this new country and to form local
associations for growing and hand
| ling seed potatoes. Instead of one
pure bred sire being secured, ar
engagements were completed for two,
a pure bred Holstein and a pure bred
Guernsey
The potato question was then TAX
en- up and a local association formed
to look after the growing of good
seed stock. Several settlers at this
point showed some of the potatoes
grown by them on new ground and
it developed that seed potatoes
should be- grown locally as the
products proved to be first-class in
every way. The varieties selected
for this country were the Green
Mountain and Rural New Yorker.
Another topic that impressed the
settler was that handled by Messrs.
Clark and Hicks Jointly, "The value
of clover and alfalfa over timothy
as food product and the subse-
quent benefit to the SOIL This
discussion brought out the facts that
alfalfa and clover were worth from
two to two and one-half times as
much as timothy as a feeding value
for dairy COWS. Another important
thing that transpired was the forma-
ton of a local committee to make
arrangements for another institute
