LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
USE GRANDNIA'S SAGE TEA AND
SULPHUR RECIPE AND NO.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded. gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother
time. She used it to keep her haiI
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive
Whenever her hair took on that dull
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful 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out of date.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 will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
of other ingredients, which can be
depended upon to restore natural col
or and beauty to the hair.
A we'll known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell It has
been applied You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and
draw this through your hair, taking
one strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears, and after
another application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and sulphur Com

agement of farmers, but it is believed
fair weather now viii remove this
evidence Of the cold, backward spring.
Farmers who planted their wheat
last fall are complaining because of
the backward condition of the ground.
In some sections of the valley, it is re-
ported. the surface of the fields is
hard to a depth of several inches and
that as a consequence the stand of
grain is poor; that the young plants
are having hard time in making a
normal growth, and that the stand in
most places is thin and unhealthy in
appearance. This condition is ac-
counted for by the fact that unusually
heavy snow fell during the winter,
and was followed by an excess of pre-
cipitat!on this spring, and the soil,
saturated with water baked under
the warm sunshine. 1t is condition
farmers say, that has not existed here
or many years, and is not complained
or in fields that were sown this
spring.

PORTLAND, Ore, May 15.-The
increased run of mutton and lambs
to North Portland met with a very

the reason that for months the trade
has been famished and large por-
ton of its dressed mutton require

FITZPATRICK PENNANT
CHASERS HAVE BIG
LEAGUERS IN LINEUP
Salem Faces Hardest Game Of
Season in Inter-City
League Sunday

Manager Bill Heales, of the Kilpat-
rick pennant contenders, has a strong
lineup on his list and promises to do
his best against the Salem Inter-City
league team when they clash at Jerman
park Sunday. The Humphrey squad
has been working out between showers
this week as the Kilpatricks are rated
as one of the strongest teams in the
league and it win be necessary for Sa-
lem to let out another notch to garner
the long end of the score in their next
league game. A glance over the visit
ing lineup shows the calibre of the
team and individual players who will
invade the Capital City Sunday.
"Chick" Baker, catcher brother of
Del (Nibs) Baker, the Detroit Americ n
league catcher, is considered the best
receiver in the league is promised a try
out with the Detroit team next season
if he shows to advantage in the Inter
City league if he can keep going at the
pace he has set will no doubt get his
chance next season on the big time cir
cult.
Tom Baker, pitcher brother Of
" Chick, y has a left handed cross fire
delivery and was the star twirler for
the Sherwood White Sox for two sea
sons. He has also done good work for
the Aurora team for several seasons
and worked half the season with Baker
in the Western Tri-State but had to
come home on account of sickness in
the family, and has not tired league
ball until this season again.
"Crabby" Claude Dixon. captain and
first baseman. puts the fight in the
game and has oodles OF pep. He hits
the pill on the nose at .435 clip.
Gordon Smart, at second base, is as
fast as lightning, also a good hitter
,42S being his average. He has repulsed
offers in leagues of higher classification
but as he holds a good position he can
not afford 10 play ball as he already
receives salary that compares favor
ably with major league baseball sal
aries.
"Kid" Mulkey, shortstop, is the find
of the season He was shortstop OF
Washington high school last year anC
is more than making good with the lead
ership cohtenders.
Fred Parrot, at third base, the Sher
wood White Sox phenom, looked like
the pure quill on the difficult corner
He hits at .4l2 and wants to be consid
cred when picking an all-star team Of
the league, as to date has showed the
most class of any of the third sackers.
Joe Dixon, outfielder, is one of tn,
best gardeners in the league and bring
the fans to their feet every game by hi
sensational fielding
Chief Bateman, outfielder, is anothe
promising young player who takes {
nice cut at the ball and is always goot
for one hit a game. He was in tn,
Nevada State league last year where HI
caught for Reno
Outfielder Dick Nelson was with tn
Sellwood City league team and is hav
