Combing Won't Rid
5 Hair of Dandruff

0 The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this, get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all, of you dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
kstrous, glossy, silky and soft and
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work-Adv/

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 bAs
cut down? By the real money-saving
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.
Hastings 1916 Seed Catalogue tells how
to cut store bills down; tells about gar
den and farm seeds of kinds and quail
ity that cannot be bought from your mer-

Millionaire With a Heart.

Mr.. Frick, the coal and steel mag
nate, who probably, like Mr.. Ford, has
more money than he can use, has come
to the, financial aid of thousands OF
school children in most touching man
ner. A Pittsburg bank failed some
time ago, causing loss to a, QUO school
children. They had been taught to
open a bank account and deposit their
small savings. When Mr.. Frick learned
that these children had lost the money
that was so dear to their little hearts,
he came forward and offered to pay
each one the amount that had been de-
posted in the defunct bank. The
schools are being visited by MIR. Frick's S
agents and the actual cash paid to the
children. Such an act will call forth
the admiration of people everywhere. 1t
may be true that the benefactor will
never miss the $l67, ,0OO, and yet he
could have used it some other way,
leaving the children in their Jdisappoint-
ment.

The Crop is Short.

The cotton crop is shorter than
any one in this immediate section
of the country probably
because ofsthe fair crop being grown
and ginned in Spartanburg county.
But the figures published yesterday,
giving the governments report as
lO.643, 1885, show how effective were
the campaigns for a reduction Of
the acreage, the shortage of ferlili.
zer and the unfayorable weather
during the latter part of the grow
ing season. A combination of these
things is responsible for the show
ing made. All contributed to the
salvation of the south.
AT present cotton is bringing a
good price and the market appears
TO be advancing into new high
ground with much cotton still in
the hands of the men who grew it.
The time, however, to test the
southern farming wisdom will be
in the coming spring when the mat
ter of acreage to be given to cotton
will again become an important
question. If the southern farmer
will profit by the experience of the
year just ending and grow his own
supplies, hold down his cotton
acreage, and act like one who un-
stands the advantage he holds, the
country will know a new era Of
great prosperity. .-Sparlanburg Her.

Would Substitute Plants For Seed.

One of the pioneers among the cab
bage plant growers of South Carolina
has suggested to congress tnat the
government send out free cabbage
plants every spring instead of free
cabbage seed, and it is said that the
proposed change is meeting with favor
among congressman. We have never
thought the people were benefited to
any considerable extent by the free
distribution of seed by the government.
AS the cost of garden seed is so small,
at least the cost of such seed as the
government sends out, that is would be
better for the consumer to 60 to a re-
liable seed dealer and select just what
he wants, rather than have some en-
tirely disinterested person thousand
miles away to select them tor him.
The same objection would apply to
plants ready Tor the garden. HoweV-
er, as the latter plan is something new,
it may be we'll to make change for a
year or two just to see what the et-
feet will be. Should the farmer re-
ceive the plants at the proper time
and transplant at once, it may give
him greens" and pot "licker" earlier
than he is accustome to having them
under the old free-seed plan.

Farmers to Hold Conference.

Leading farmers from all parts of
the State will hold a conference IN Co.
lumbia tomorrow for the purpose OF
discussing matters of interest to farm
ers that are now being considered by
the legislature. Unfortunately, the
legislature has not large per cent. of
farmers in the two houses as it ought
to have. Therefore, it is we'll Tor
those who are actively engaged in farm
ing to hold conference and decide
what is best along certain lines, and
then get in touch with the lawmakers
in an advisory way rather than as loby-
lists.
If farmers were thoroughly alive 10
the promotion of their interests, they
would maintain an organization, acting
in concert whenever the necessity
arises for such action. They have a
fragmentary organization in the form
of the Farmers Union, which ought ITO
be revived and recognized in every
county in the State. Cooperative buy
ing and selling can nevor be made OF
benefit to farmers without an organl-
zation of some form. Acting as incl
viduals, farmers can never assert them
selves In way that will bring results.
The conference in Columbia tomorrow
would be larger, more representative
and more effective if farmers in every
county were organized.

New Navy Year Book.

y The Navy Yearb book for 1915,
compiled by B. r. Tillman, Jr., and
published as Senate document,

men nbers of Congress.
The appearance of this years
book has been awaited with extra
ordinary interest, and Mr.. Till

responsible for the completion and
publication of the book in advance

The new edition of the yearbook
is the most valuable reference work

use, owing to the addition each year

priation act. Mr.. Tillman's dis.

peated from year to year; the acts

personnel act), and the latest act, as

provisions and new legislation be.

The book has in this way been
reduced from 1000 to about 600
pages. Indefinite expansion of the
size and expense of the publication
has thus been checked and the flu
ture continuance, iu useful form, of
a valuable handbook on subject of
great public interest is ensured.
The book appears in new and at
tractive binding of gray buckram.
To supplement the abbreviated
texted a new statement has been pre-
pared (availabi. in no other publica.
tion), showing in detail, under each
head and protect, the money appro-

The statistical tables contain

without real leather for these many

have nothing to boast of in this
achievement.
